Mondoweiss interviews Andrew Day, senior editor at American Conservative, about the fierce debate over Israel (and Epstein) happening on the right, neoconservatism’s role within the Trump administration, and what a “post-Israel” GOP might look like.
The UN Security Council voted in favor of Trump’s “peace plan” for Gaza, effectively giving the U.S. and Israel the mandate to push forward their vision for Gaza’s future – a future that, notably, features no consideration for what Palestinians want.
The Jenin Freedom Theater, an embodiment of the “cultural resistance” genre of committed art, ceased operations after the Israeli army ethnically cleansed Jenin refugee camp’s residents. The theater is now gathering stories of displacement.
As part of the ceasefire, Gaza has been split in half by the so-called ‘yellow line,’ where Israel’s military controls just over 50% of the Strip. Palestinians are being killed for trying to cross or even get close to the line.
Palestinians hoped the Gaza ceasefire with Israel would offer a chance to recover from two years of genocide, but a month later, Israel continues to strike with impunity, the economic crisis remains, and nutritious food is nearly impossible to find.
Israel is advancing a dangerous bill to impose the death penalty on Palestinian prisoners. Right-wing leaders want to go even further and use the bill to give Israeli forces the authority to carry out extrajudicial killings.
For years, AIPAC played a key role in U.S. politics as a campaign financing powerhouse, but now aspiring candidates are distancing themselves from the group. What lies ahead for the Lobby as the Gaza genocide has made Israel a political liability?
Inside one Palestinian family’s harrowing experience of having their son’s dead body withheld by Israel as a bargaining chip. Israel has held the bodies of 726 Palestinians in refrigerators and the so-called “cemetery of numbers” for decades.
The “Yellow Line” splitting Gaza in two is meant to be temporary according to Trump’s “peace” plan. However, the fact that those terms were intentionally left vague suggests that the partition of Gaza was the real goal all along.
