The Olympic Games and Israel’s security narrative

The Israeli Olympics team will be provided with 24-hour security during their stay in Paris, after left-wing MP Thomas Portes said that protests should be staged against the Israeli team’s participation.

Is the international community as dehumanized as Israel has proved itself to be?

No one would have possibly dreamt that genocide and boredom can co-exist, until testimonies collected by +972 Magazine illustrated how the Zionist narrative managed to even construct a new meaning of genocide, or lose it altogether.

Settlement expansion, genocide and the two-state paradigm

As the Western-approved, slow genocide continues in the occupied West Bank, Israel’s Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich described the Zionist regime’s approval for 5,300 new settlement units as “thwarting the danger of a Palestinian state”.

Maintaining diplomatic appearances reinforces genocide

Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, is expected to address a joint session of US Congress on 24 July, and speculations about the contents of his speech have been reported in Israeli media, albeit slightly contradictory.

Israel is forcibly disappearing future Palestinian generations

It is estimated that around 21,000 Palestinian children are missing in Gaza, either buried under rubble or in mass graves, estranged from their families, detained or disappeared by Israel.

Humanitarian aid and Israel’s ‘voluntary migration’ scheme

Greek Foreign Minister George Gerapetritis said earlier this week that, “We have offered ourselves to host injured people from Palestine but also children from Palestine to come to Europe and stay here until the war is over.”

The US role in Israel’s genocide in Gaza

US President Joe Biden’s interview with Time magazine attracted the attention of mainstream and Israeli media due to one particular comment.

Only decolonization can stop Israel, not more futile resolutions

UN resolutions did not stop Israel’s colonial expansion or its violence. And neither will they stop Israel’s genocide in Gaza.

The ICC enables evasion of genocide indictments for Israel leaders

Only those in power are still unable to articulate the word ‘genocide’, and not for lack of knowledge.

The US continues to provide cover for Israel’s genocide in Gaza

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu remains set in his plans to invade Rafah, with or without US assistance.

The EU is careful not to antagonize Israel, so supports its genocide

Prioritizing its trade and economic agreements with Israel puts the EU at a disadvantage when it comes to leveraging its purported influence with regard to human rights.

In Netanyahu’s warped mind, committing war crimes is Israel’s right

According to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, “The court established to prevent atrocities like the Nazi Holocaust against the Jewish people is now targeting the one state of the Jewish people.”

From the river to the sea – a call for rightful decolonization

Israeli media is celebrating another win for its narrative, as the US Congress passed a resolution condemning the Palestinian resistance chant, “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free”, as anti-Semitic.

A change in rhetoric, not in humanitarian aid

To keep reading that Israel’s strike on the World Central Kitchen (WCK) that killed foreign aid workers besides Palestinians was the pivot point to slightly alter US President Joe Biden’s rhetoric, is nothing more but an ongoing affirmation that Palestinian lives do not matter.

Israel not only wants to destroy UNRWA, but all humanitarian endeavours

To eliminate the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) completely, Israel is pushing a false narrative that it operates as “part of the terrorist infrastructure of Hamas”.

Kushner’s vision for ‘rebuilding Gaza’ is shameful

“It’s unfortunate that no one’s taking in the refugees,” lamented former White House advisor during the Trump administration Jared Kushner.
