The War
Still going... It's not really Israel vs Hamas. That just plays better in the US media.
‘Israel-Hamas War’ Label Obscures Israel’s War on Palestinians
The Dead
Still piling up... Civilians make up 61% of Gaza deaths from airstrikes, Israeli study finds
Our Leaders
Still 100% Israel, 100% of the time...

US to Send Tank Shells to Israel After Biden Admin Bypasses Congress, Approves Sale
Blinken always looks like he knows backing the Gaza genocide is wrong but also knows if the administration wavers even a bit, AIPAC's full support will go to Trump and the Republicans. Trapped.

UN Veto
You are probably on the wrong side of history (and humanity) when every other vote is to stop killing civilians and you veto it.
Again, not vetoing would have signed the Democrats 2024 election death warrant.

Zionism
Zombie Zionism: The Last Stage of a Dead Settler-Colonialist Ideology
There is the endless, asinine demand for what are really loyalty oaths by “condemning Hamas”; the resolute drive to brazenly lie about the meaning of expressions such as “from the river to the sea” or “intifada,” so as to smear those who use them with genocidal intentions (projection again indeed); the generalized campaign against Muslims – or really anyone from the Middle East who is not Israeli and thus a type of Western colonizer – recasting long-standing prejudices as a perverse demand for “support” for Israel while it is committing genocide; and, finally, the absurdity, now endorsed by the US Congress, of equating anti-Zionism with anti-Semitism, which makes about as much sense as it would have made to mistake being against Nazism for a desire to destroy all Germans – that is, none whatsoever.
