All of this–the language of genocide, the genocide itself and the threats of committing a greater genocide–is rooted, not in a rational political theory, but in Zionism.

Wednesday was a day of shame for the House of Commons. Few powers around the world are more important in supporting Israel’s genocidal attack on the Palestinians of Gaza than Britain.

The idea that Zionism is settler colonialism is not new. Palestinian scholars in the 1960s working in Beirut in the PLO Research Centre had already understood that what they were facing in Palestine was not a classical colonial project.

Apologists for Israel’s brutality against Palestinians in Gaza are continuing to use the past persecution of Jews to neutralise criticism of Israel.

The nations that brag the most about “democracy” routinely ignore the will of their people. Support for Israel’s war crimes in Gaza is but one example of this phenomenon.

The human rights group Al-Haq warned that such an assault on Rafah “will result in thousands of Palestinian civilians killed on a scale that has not been witnessed in the previous four months of Israel’s genocidal military campaign against Gaza.”

The Bishops of the Church of England urge ‘Israel’ to comply with the rulings of the International Court of Justice, and guarantee that Palestinians have access to necessities such as food, water, healthcare, and safety.

My first encounter with Israel’s role in genocide happened while caring for patients, not in Palestine but in California.

The PRCS confirms that the team dispatched to rescue Hind was killed despite prior coordination with the Israeli occupation.

Raouf Halaby: “To say that I was awed is an understatement.”

That the West did nothing after the ICJ ruling on Israeli genocide and yet defunded aid to starving Palestinians in Gaza after unproved Israeli accusations tells you everything you need to know.

The protest movement that has exploded onto the streets and inside the Labour Party in response to British complicity with Israel’s crimes is not a distraction from class politics—it’s the way forward, writes Kevin Ovenden.

A pro-Israeli media institute has theorized that Yemen’s Ansar Allah planned on destroying cables that supply 99% of the world with internet, but these claims were entirely fabricated.

Since November, Ansar Allah has been conducting a blockade of Israeli ships entering the Red Sea in an attempt to force Israel to stop its attack on the people of Gaza. The U.S. government, which has refused to act to stop a genocide, sprang into action to prevent damage to private property, leading an international coalition to bomb targets in Yemen.

More than 800 civil servants from the U.S., the UK, and the European Union released a statement on Friday criticizing their governments’ support of Israel in its war in Gaza, warning that such policies could be contributing to war crimes and violations of international law.

Unfazed by the International Court of Justice’s Genocide Case Brought by South Africa, Even More Deadly Weapons Are on the Way.

The Biden administration colluded with Israel to slander the United Nations Relief Works Agency for Palestine in anticipation of the ICJ ruling against Israel on the charge of genocide. Washington is attempting to cover up genocide by committing the war crime of collective punishment against the people of Gaza.

On 26 January, the judges at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) found that it is ‘plausible’ that Israel is committing a genocide against Palestinians in Gaza.

It’s hard to get an independent estimate of the number of people who showed up—Palestinians and Americans of all ages and races, including Jewish Americans, arriving from all parts of the country.

Eighty years ago, on January 27, 1944, people in the street were hugging each other and weeping with joy. They were celebrating the end of a nearly 900 days brutal siege. Soviet forces lifted the siege of Leningrad after ferocious battles. Exactly a year later they liberated Auschwitz.
