One year later the flames of genocide still burn, but after decades of persecution and bloodshed we may well be seeing the beginning of the end of the settler-colonial project in Palestine. 

Gaza has become a battlefield in the war over the fate and collective dignity of the people of the region, including beyond Palestine. But amid all this, Gaza remains the compass.

Noura Erakat shares five lessons the Israeli genocide in Gaza has taught us. 

While Israel has been carrying out a genocide against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, its military and settlers have been waging another campaign of ethnic cleansing in the West Bank, moving ever closer towards Israel’s goals of annexation.

In an interview with Mondoweiss, General Secretary of the Palestinian National Initiative Dr. Mustafa Barghouti reflects on the importance of Palestinian national unity, the challenges facing the Palestinian struggle, and the right to resist.

The Israeli ground invasion of southern Lebanon continues to face stiff resistance along the border one week on, while the Israeli army has renewed its assault on northern Gaza, laying siege to Jabalia refugee camp for the sixth time since October 7.

Mondoweiss spoke to analyst Mouin Rabbani about U.S. motivations in the Middle East and why the Biden administration fully supports Israel’s escalations against Lebanon and Iran.

In the wake of Iran’s missile attack, the Israeli army has escalated its massacres in Gaza’s displacement centers, killing 99 people in two days.

In Gaza and Lebanon, Israel is projecting its force while burrowing itself deeper into a quagmire. While it may achieve brief operational successes, it fails to extinguish the spirit of the resistance or coerce it into submission.

Israel has killed 150 people across Gaza since Iran launched its retaliatory ballistic missile attack against Israel. Meanwhile, Israeli airstrikes continue across Lebanon, with the death toll reaching into the thousands.
