The war in Gaza has, since October 7, 2023, killed more journalists than the U.S. Civil War, World Wars I and II, the Korean War, the Vietnam War (including the conflicts in Cambodia and Laos), the wars in Yugoslavia in the 1990s and 2000s, and the post-9/11 war in Afghanistan, combined. It is, quite simply, the worst ever conflict for reporters.

all of them were buried in a careless mass grave of rescue workers, found after a week of pleading from their loved ones and radio silence from their murderers and those who enable them.

these two difficulties are not insurmountable to me. i can get better at describing things, at demanding your attention. we can find things to look at that don't overload our brains or our hearts, the oblique view that will bring everything else into focus. and in doing so we can navigate the second obstacle, which is everything that prevents your attention and your compassion. the 'you' implied here is the you reading this post, but it is also everyone who is not in that video, really. it's also myself.

The monsters assassinated him the exact same way they assassinated numerous journalists in Gaza in recent months. They are hunting down journalists and bombing their vehicles. Monsters.

As Israel ramps up its attacks on Gaza, our latest visual exposes how the U.S. and Israel never really wanted a ceasefire. They worked together for months to block international efforts to end the genocide, all while the U.S. continued to supply Israel with weapons.

And as always, remember: "The White House said Israel consulted the US before resuming the attacks."

they have violated the conditions for phase I and are refusing to move to phase II by announcing a war crime instead: resuming the starvation siege and preventing international aid from entering gaza during ramadan. this is all par for the course. israel has never met an agreement it wouldn't break, nor missed an opportunity to inflict more suffering. accountability will come regardless, but now is the time to be alert, especially as western media tries to obfuscate the reasons for the ceasefire violations.

i've been saying this for two years, but it doesn't hurt to say it again: the short term of this is ugly. there's no short-term solution. things are going to get more violent. but the long-term is already lost to them. all we have to do is stay the course, and don't let them intimidate you into silence or exhaust you with the sheer scale of the violence. these are the tactics of a bully nation led by a bully sponsor, and the world has seen all of them fall before

This is part of an ongoing military operation against the West Bank which intensified right after the ceasefire announcement in Gaza and has so far displaced over 40,000 Palestinians. This Israeli aggression is carried out under the same pretext as that in Gaza: to eliminate Palestinian resistance. However, as time passes, it becomes clearer every day that this can't be further from the truth and that it is purely an extension, a continuation of Israel's action plan to annex more Palestinian lands as part of its settler colonial project.

Israeli Checkpoints Many of us have very often heard about Israeli checkpoints across the occupied territories.Israel claims that these checkpoints are vital for their security. There main purpose is anything but security, infact they are just one of many other measures put in place to oppress and humiliate the Palestinian population further. These checkpoints are placed mostly between each Palestinian towns and villages. They are at times placed randomly in the middle of nowhere. Everyday the Palestinians are subjected to go through these humiliating checkpoints in order to get around. Besides the humiliation the other worst part of it is being made to wait hours before allowed access, in worst case scenario be refused entry altogether for what ever reason the Israelis see fit. These checkpoints really make life tough for Palestinians who need to get around. They are unable to get to work, visit family, attend a wedding and even respond to an emergency. These checkpoints have nothing to do with security it’s just another abuse of power. You have illegal Israeli settlers that move around freely, even harass and abuse Palestinians yet they are not subjected to go through any checkpoints. How would we find life living under these conditions. Just imagine not being able to get to work, visit family, attend a wedding or a party, go to another town, respond to even an emergency. There is no nation or people on earth that are subjected to this kind of humiliation and oppression. While you have the occupying Israelis who are enjoying a life of freedom at the same time you have the Palestinians who are living a life of a prison camp in their own land. “It’s not enough to eliminate the Palestinians, they must be humiliated as well” IDF Chief of Staff Benny Gantz
