Israel is using the war on Iran to further its colonization and annexation of the West Bank, turning Palestinian communities into caged enclaves.
Palestinians in Gaza are watching the skies as missiles fall on Tel Aviv instead of them. While many think Israel can be defeated, others are left frustrated that Iran did not intervene and come to Gaza’s aid sooner.

Amid Israel’s continued attacks on Iran, U.S. lawmakers from across the political spectrum are pushing efforts to curb Donald Trump’s war powers as U.S. involvement in the war threatens to fracture Trump’s political coalition.
After 23 years of service, I was fired from my position as a Professor of Medicine at the University of California, San Francisco, for being critical of Israel’s violence in Gaza and speaking out against the racism that leads to genocide.
