“The current crisis may very well mark the end of Netanyahu’s public career. But Israel may also be trapped in conditions of his making long after he is gone.” theguardian.com/world/2023/nov…

For The Guardian Long Read, I wrote about the collapse of Benjamin Netanyahu’s entire political project—and why, despite that, it could well live on even after he’s gone. theguardian.com/world/2023/nov…

'Netanyahu began to think of himself as indispensable, as the incarnation of the national spirit, as identical to the state itself.'

If you celebrate the killing of innocent civilians as you did on Oct. 7 you aren't a leftist—just another apologist for indiscriminate nationalist violence.

רק בשיחה מקומית:
כותבת פלסטינית מספידה את חברתה פעילת השלום הישראלית שנרצחה ע״י חמאס.
כותבת ישראלית שמספידה את חברה הכותב העזתי שנרצח עם כל משפחתו ע״י ישראל.

Vivian Silver, a veteran Israeli peace activist who was thought to be taken hostage to the Gaza Strip, was in fact killed on October 7th. Her body was identified today. Such sad news

This is an appreciation post for all Palestinian journalists in Gaza. To venture outside, to call witnesses, to write down or voice record stories — all while evading bombs, finding food/water/power, and mourning thousands — are testaments to their caliber and resolve.

After Israel’s war last war in Gaza in 2021, I wrote about the settler right’s growing ambition—to capture the Israeli state and carry out a Second Nakba. They’ve been saying it out loud for years.
