Another routine pogrom backed by Israel’s military.
Israeli terrorists armed by Minister Ben Gvir torched homes, killed a Palestinian & wounded 20civilians.
Israel’s military occupation is the main driver of all violence. (But any & all crimes prior to 10/7 seem to be irrelevant)

“It’s our job to be unpopular. It’s our job to stand alone and say what we really think—-not as activists, but as writers”

לפחות פלסטיני אחד נרצח ומבנים ורכבים הוצתו באלמע׳ייר שבגדה הכבושה לאחר פלישת עשרות מתנחבלים רעולי פנים לכפר, הם עדיין מסתובבים בין הבתים. זו התוצאה כשמשרד הרווחה מפקיר ילדים למלתעות המתנחלים במאחזים, ואלו מנצלים את פגיעותם ומגייסים אותם למליציות הרצח.
זו לא טעות - זו מדיניות!

Of course he's right but what's the use of all these Israeli officials sounding the alarm bells and being vocal AFTER they leave their positions?

As someone wrote it's the equivalent of a soldier getting an advanced rank after they're killed.

These are the voices we need to elevate from Israel. These are the communities we need to build. To my friends in Israel who never caved into militaristic nationalism and dehumanizing rhetoric, I value you.

A religious death cult that believes that violent taking of the land will create a spiritual shock that will usher salvation. Prolonging this war is a gift from God to it.

An American professor, Jodi Dean, calls Oct 7 'exhilarating,' claims Hamas is supported by 'the entirety of the Palestinian left' & applies Leila Khaled's defense of 'the justness of hijacking.'

I don't imagine any Verso editors will resign à la Guernica.

Some famous professor in Geneva, New York wrote an article, duly published by Verso, as to why killing civilians is great & how she was so excited about 10/7.

What else is new? For these bored folks, we, the people of Middle East, only exist as subjects of their fantasies

PS if you were enthralled with a woman maintaining her humanity in face of the Israeli gov's vengeance, but gloss over for whom she's fighting for, you also missed the point.

Release the hostages = Ceasefire Now

Many got excited an Israeli said 'nazi' (pretty common epithet in IL) and missed the point: Ayala's critique highlights not only the gov's criminal war policy but also illustrates how citizens can become collateral in their own gov vengeful strategies.

Sorry to disappoint.
