Israel is deepening Lebanese social rifts by bombing areas that have been considered historically “safe” from Israeli attacks, dissuading the residents of those areas from sheltering displaced people from the south.
Pro-Israel critics are panicking at the success of Ta-Nehisi Coates’s new book, “The Message,” and they have honed in on an argument to discredit him that doesn’t hold up to the slightest scrutiny.
We asked Palestinians in Gaza to share their last memories before the genocide. This is what they said.
October 7 showed that Palestinians and Arabs remain the rightful heirs of our story. We remain the primary witnesses to testify to our past, present and future. We remain the owners of our narrative.
Palestinians have endured 76 years of the Nakba and now the 2024 genocide. Despite Israel and the West’s desire to erase our existence, we continue to declare, “We won’t leave.”
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.
The year since October 7 has shown us that Israel can neither be accommodated nor reformed. It must be dismantled, and Zionism must be brought to an end. Only this will finally alleviate the Palestinians’ terrible ordeal over the past 76 years.
