The Gaza genocide revealed imperial tensions between the U.S. and Israel which show the U.S. will sacrifice Zionist demands for its own interests.
A ceasefire deal to finally stop the genocide in Gaza and bring about an exchange of captives appears to be at hand, but many questions remain. Among them is the role the incoming Trump administration played and what this says for his policy in the region.
In recent days, Gaza ceasefire talks have seemed to gather unprecedented momentum, but until Israel’s far-right government concedes it is ready to abandon the genocide any predictions of the horror finally ending should be taken with skepticism.
Ceasefire negotiations have resumed in Egypt between Hamas and Israel. A new push for unity between rival Palestinian factions could offer a new path forward, but internal Israeli political strife could once again prevent a deal from taking shape.

Israeli settler violence continues to terrorize Palestinians in the Jordan Valley as the U.S. envoy arrives in the region to deescalate tensions along Lebanon’s southern border.
Our hope for a ceasefire has been weaponized against us. Every time politicians issue statements, mediators shuttle between capitals, headlines promise a breakthrough, and then it all falls apart. And every time, my hope breaks me.
