Israel's Aid Capitulation Exposes the Lie Behind Biden's Gaza Policy

April 7, 2024
The Biden administration has insisted there's very little it can do to alter policy in the region and acted as though Israel's policy decisions are unconnected to the United States, the country that gives them more than $4 billion a year in military aid.

I forgot to die

April 3, 2024
Today is the 167th day of Israel’s genocide against the Palestinian people that began on October 7. Even before Hamas’ strike on October 7, many media sources called 2023 “the deadliest year on record” for Palestinians in the West Bank. Israeli forces had killed 395 Palestinians in the West Bank that year, while settlers were responsible for 9 more killings. While murders such as these are the direct cessation of life, Israel still conducts other forms of violence, for instance attacks on hospitals and schools, that impede Palestinian lifemaking. In Palestine, a declared war is a spatio-temporal escalation of a slow and ongoing war against its people.
