Israel’s Violations of International Law Are Bigger Than Netanyahu
When Netanyahu proposed a reform to allow parliament to overturn Israel’s Supreme Court, liberals feared it would lead to the end of the rule of law in Israel. But Israel has never respected the rule of law, and liberals within the country ensured this.
Eric Adams Epitomizes the Democratic Party’s Sordid Love Affair With Israel
This week, NYC mayor Eric Adams is touring Israel, celebrating its use of military force to effectively repress Palestinians and Israeli protesters alike. It’s a sad yet characteristic example of Democrats’ sycophantic relationship to the apartheid state.
Israeli Genocide Is a Bad Investment
Norway’s recent divestment from Israel Bonds is the latest piece of bad news for an Israeli economy that has nosedived during the war on Gaza — creating a huge opening for other divestment campaigns to hit Israel where it hurts and bring the war to an end.
The United States Should Not Fund Israel’s Assault on Gaza
The US is poised to send more military aid to Israel, on top of the billions it gives annually. But Israel’s all-out assault on Gaza will not bring back the Israeli lives lost on October 7 — and it is already killing countless Palestinian civilians.
Israel Has Turned the Occupied Territories Into a Laboratory for State Terror
Israel’s decades-long occupation of Palestinian territories has given it a special know-how in imposing military control over civilians. Governments around the world admire its example — and are ever keener to import its repressive technologies.
Israel’s New-Old Discrimination
The message of Israel's new “nation state” law is as simple as it as repugnant: Palestinians need not exist.
“Just Ask Israel”
Donald Trump is selling his border wall by touting Israel’s separation wall — a barrier that even many supporters admit amounts to apartheid.

Benjamin Netanyahu might have taken a hit in the Israeli elections. But whether or not he forms the next government, Israel’s occupation will continue — and Palestinians will have their democratic rights snuffed out.
Officials Keep Admitting Biden’s Anger at Israel Isn’t Real
Since October 7, US officials have been quietly admitting in the press that Joe Biden fully supports Israel’s war — and that talk about the president’s supposed anger at massive civilian casualties in Gaza is purely PR to keep the war going.
Israel Is Kurd-Washing Its Crimes in Gaza
Faced with criticism of the war in Gaza, Israeli leaders cynically ask why the world worries about the Palestinians and not the Kurds. Israel’s supposed pro-Kurdish stance is empty posturing — and risks damaging the Kurdish fight for liberation.
Joe Biden Is Still Giving Unrestricted Support to Israel’s War on Gaza
US officials suggested that Israel would have to shift to a “lower-intensity” campaign in Gaza from the new year. But Joe Biden is still unwilling to apply any serious pressure, even if his support for Israel’s war threatens to hand victory to Donald Trump.
Israel, Not Iran or Hezbollah, Wants a Wider War
Having painted itself into a corner by launching a war that has killed 40,000 Palestinians and failed to defeat Hamas, Israel has doubled down, provoking a wider war with Iran and Hezbollah to bring in the US against enemies it cannot vanquish alone.
Israel’s War on Gaza Is a Campaign of State Terrorism to Crush the Palestinian People
It is farcical for US politicians to suggest that Israel is trying to avoid killing civilians in Gaza. Mass destruction and intentional killing is an integral part of the Israeli campaign, intended to break Palestinian resistance to occupation and apartheid.
No, Israel Is Not a Democracy
Israel is not the only democracy in the Middle East. In fact, it's not a democracy at all.
Israel’s Leaders Are Trying to Cancel the Debate Because They Know They’re Losing
Israel and its supporters are ramping up efforts to outlaw solidarity with Palestinians in the name of combating antisemitism. But these authoritarian maneuvers can’t hide the fact that Israel is losing the battle for public opinion over its denial of Palestinian rights.
Israel’s Annexation Plan Is the Latest Stage in a Long History of Violent Dispossession
Benjamin Netanyahu’s government has missed its first deadline for annexing part of the West Bank, but this Trump-backed scheme for land theft is still firmly on the table. The goal of Netanyahu and his US sponsors is simple: they want to liquidate Palestinian national aspirations.
Joe Biden Is Shipping Weapons to Israel Every 36 Hours
The Biden administration has been able to maintain a low profile by spreading arms provision to Israel across more than 100 smaller munitions sales — allowing the president to posture as a peacekeeper while US weapons wipe Gaza off the map.
Documenting Six Months of Israeli War Crimes in Gaza
For six months, Israel has been deliberately killing civilians in Gaza and destroying infrastructure to make the area uninhabitable. Israeli academic Lee Mordechai summarizes the horrific results of an operation that is wholly immoral and criminal.
Israel Has Killed Some 2,000 Children in Gaza. Joe Biden Is Still Opposing a Cease-Fire.
Gaza is a nightmare of Israel's creation, with thousands of civilians killed, children buried under rubble, and food, water, and medicine rapidly disappearing. Yet Joe Biden still refuses to call for a cease-fire to halt this calamitous war.
