Both Iran and Israel are gambling a great deal of their futures on what Trump will do next. Indeed, the fate of the world, in a very real sense, hangs in the balance.
Netanyahu has staked Israel’s economic future on becoming a Mediterranean trade hub to replace the Strait of Hormuz. The war on Iran was supposed to make that possible, but it consumed the fiscal space, U.S. backing, and Gulf capital needed for it.
This Father’s Day, Miramar Abusaleem reclaims her father’s memory — a Gaza farmer killed by an Israeli airstrike, and namesake of The Sameer Project — challenging how Palestinian men disappear from media coverage of the genocide.
After months of war, the U.S. and Iran have signed a framework agreement that excludes every U.S. war aim. Mouin Rabbani breaks down why this is a decisive defeat for Washington and Israel.
Hillel International’s antisemitism trainings and Campus Climate Initiative are wolves in sheep’s clothing, designed to ensure that Palestine-related speech, protest, and even thought are rendered forbidden on U.S. college and university campuses.
Benjamin Netanyahu is under fire across the Israeli political spectrum for allowing the U.S. to reach a deal with Iran. “The state of Israel won the battle,” said Israeli opposition leader Yair Lapid, but “Netanyahu lost the war.”
The U.S. and Iran have reportedly signed a deal to open the Strait of Hormuz and to begin negotiations to end the war. It is a hopeful sign that this disastrous war of choice may soon be over, but once again, Israel stands to be the spoiler.
After passing two death penalty laws in six weeks, Israel is investing hundreds of millions of dollars to try to execute Palestinians on live TV. Unanimous support for the laws shows that Israeli society can unite around “death to Palestinians.”
Israeli leaders recently announced plans to implement a “voluntary emigration plan from Gaza.” This echoes Zionists’ proposals since the 1800s to force Palestinians off the land. But they have always failed because Palestinians are the land.
The U.S. can end the Iran war, but only if it restrains Israel. Will Donald Trump muster the political will to end this disastrous war of choice?
