The U.S. supports Israel unconditionally because it sees the entire Western project in the Middle East at risk today in Gaza. While it may seem these our darkest days, it is also clear that the U.S. and Israel are bound to fail.

Palestinians are on the receiving end of a racist Western onslaught, but we cannot compromise on the right to self-determination and liberation.

Palestinian support for “armed resistance and intifada” surged from 43 to 60 percent in the last two months, according to lead Palestinian pollster, reflecting overwhelming belief that Gaza militants defeated Israel in the May conflict by stopping expulsions in Jerusalem.

Now Trump is gone. Liberal Zionists can no longer comfortably argue that injustice in Israel/Palestine is mainly caused by Benjamin Netanyahu and Jewish settlers. Nathan Thrall showed calmly and persuasively that the liberal Zionists and the Peace Processors have been running a long con game for decades, insisting that Israel will agree to a 2-state solution only if you don’t criticize and give them whatever they want.

Based on initial statements from the Biden Administration it appears the president has told his State Department he is not spending any political capital to fight the Israel lobby.

Netanyahu is running for reelection by saying there is “one state” between the river and the sea in which Jews and Arabs work together. He’s solidifying the apartheid reality under the nose of the Biden administration, which says pointedly that it won’t be undertaking negotiations because Israeli Palestinian trust is at a “nadir”.

The Biden administration may be looking to overturn many of the Trump administration’s policies — but not when it comes to Israel.

The New York Times gives Paul Wolfowitz a platform to criticize Trump on the withdrawal from Syria, and the fight against ISIS, without saying a word about the roots of ISIS in the destruction that his project of invading Iraq wrought throughout the region. Wolfowitz should be on trial for major war crimes, Helena Cobban writes, not featured in the New York Times.

Asaf Calderon writes, “Netanyahu’s carefully cultivated stagnation can only be disrupted by his removal. The change will not come from a Gantz administration, but by the end of the Netanyahu administration.”

Jared Kushner’s ‘Peace to Prosperity’ economic plan mirrors those that have been presented from the Oslo period onwards. So why is Palestinian leadership so resistant to, and outraged by, this particular plan? David Joseph Deutch says it is because “one avenue claimed to lead to liberation, while lining the pockets of a PNA connected elite. The other promises perpetual occupation, with peace dividends for international investors.”
