De agressie en terreur van Israël kent geen grenzen meer, niet alleen figuurlijk maar ook letterlijk, dit geldt zowel voor de Gazastrook, de West Bank, Libanon, Syrië, Iran en zelfs Irak is niet veilig voor de Israëlische terreur….

Foto uit een artikel van Human Rights Watch: ‘Syria: Israel Forcibly Displaces Villagers in Occupied South‘ Deze link is ook opgenomen in het grote blok met links en bij de noot aangaande ‘From the River to the Sea*‘.

Gezien het voorgaande is het dan ook een schande dat men zo hysterisch heeft gereageerd op de pro-Palestijnse leuze ‘From the River to the Sea, Palestine will be free’, zeker als je bedenkt dat Israëlische uniformen op de mouw kunnen zijn uitgerust met een kaart van ‘ Groot Israël’ waarop Israël wordt getoond met delen van Libanon, Syrië, Jordanië en Egypte*. Genocide pleger, psychopaat en ordinaire misdadiger Netanyahu heeft verklaard dat Israël een ‘bufferzone’ creëert die zich zal uitstrekken tot Damascus…..

Het volgende Facebook bericht nam ik over van Ton Geurtsen:

MintPress News December 2, 2025, de afbeellding werd al eens gecensureerd opnieuw toegevoegd op 1 januari 2026, hier de link naar het Facebook bericht van Mint Press.

Two Palestinian teenagers were recently killed in separate incidents involving Israeli forces in the occupied West Bank. These incidents are part of a surge in violence in the territory since the genocide in Gaza began in October 2023.
The two teenagers killed in recent separate incidents were:
Muhand Tariq Muhammad al-Zughair, 17, was fatally shot by Israeli forces near the Abu Dajjan area of Hebron.
Muhammad Raslan Mahmoud Asmar, 18, from the town of Beit Rima, died from critical injuries sustained from Israeli gunfire near the village of Umm Safa, northwest of Ramallah.

Intussen heeft Israël zoals algemeen bekend mag worden geacht, naast de illegale annexatie van de Golanhoogten, een nog groter stuk van Syrië bezet en gaat ook daar tekeer als op de West Bank, ofwel Israël is bezig met het etnisch zuiveren middels terreur op het illegaal door haar bezet gebied….

Ook deze illegale bezetting en etnische zuivering door Israël wordt niet veroordeeld door de westerse wereld en de eenzijdige berichtgeving door de reguliere westerse massamedia, zoals dat al meer dan 2 jaar het geval is met de genocide die deze genocidaal psychopathische terreurstaat uitoefent op de Palestijnen in de Gazastrook. Hier moet ik even gas terugnemen, immers sinds een paar maanden zijn er landen die Israël wel degelijk verantwoordelijk houden voor ‘het geweld’ tegen de Palestijnen, als mijdt men het woord ‘genocide’ als de pest….

Intussen hebben veel politici en vooraanstaande figuren in Israël er geen probleem mee om toe te geven dat men zelfs baby’s met opzet vermoord, waarbij men dit verdedigt met te zeggen dat dit de terroristen van de toekomst zijn, de psychopathische moordenaars van het Israëlische leger (IDF) gaan zelfs zover dat ze vrouwen en meisjes dusdanig verwonden (als men ze al niet ‘gewoon doodschiet’) zodat ze geen kinderen meer kunnen krijgen…. Het is trouwens toch al zo dat men met opzet kinderen doodschiet of zodanig verwondt dat ze overlijden (er is een groot tekort aan medische middelen, medicijnen, artsen, verpleegkundigen en ziekenhuisbedden, zodat enorm veel Palestijnen en hun kinderen zelfs overlijden aan verwondingen die normaal makkelijk zijn te behandelen….) Bedenk hierbij dat een paar Israëlische militairen hebben verklaard dat hun scherpschutters per dag wisselen welk deel van kinderen als doel wordt genomen, ofwel de ene dag het hoofd, de volgende de borst, dan weer de buikstreek en zelfs het kruis wordt als doel genomen….. Ik kan die enorme inhumane schoften niet anders zien dan als nazi’s…… Hieronder een foto die aangeeft hoe beestachtig Israëlische militairen zijn en bedenk hierbij dat de dieren, die wij ook aanduiden als beesten, zoiets nooit zouden doen! Een aantal Israëlische politici zegt trots te zijn om als fascisten te worden gezien, of uiten zich als de eerste ‘beste’ fascist……

Dat men in Israël Palestijnse gijzelaars en gevangenen martelt is al evenmin voor velen iets nieuws, zelfs niet dat gevangenen worden verkracht, zowel meisjes, jongens, vrouwen en mannen. Nog walgelijker was om afgelopen donderdag op de site van Caitlin Johnstone te lezen dat men zelfs honden heeft getraind om gevangenen te verkrachten…..** Wat zijn dat voor walgelijke monsters?? Ook hier past geen andere typering dan >> smerige nazi-methoden… (al vraag ik me af of die monsters voorafgaand en tijdens de Tweede Wereldoorlog ook zover gingen….)

Zoals gewoonlijk spelen de media, zoals hier al zo vaak aangegeven, weer een grote rol met valse manipulatie van berichten, dan wel totale verzwijging van feiten. In Groot-Brittannië zijn een groot aantal mensen gevangengezet om dat ze deelnamen aan vreedzame demonstraties, opgesloten met de beschuldiging dat ze zich schuldig maakten aan terrorisme, daar ze tijdens deze (nogmaals: vreedzame) demonstraties aangaven achter ‘Palestine Action’ te staan. 6 van hen zijn in hongerstaking gegaan en waar in de 80er jaren ook de reguliere media wel belangstelling hadden voor de hongerstakers van de IRA, zijn deze media nu doodstil over deze hongerstaking. Deze media zijn dan ook in handen van spuugrijke schoften, die er alle belang bij hebben dat de huidige westerse status quo overeind blijft door de westerse bevolkingen te hersenspoelen met onder andere fake news en desinformatie….*** (voorbeelden te over, neem alleen al de berichtgeving over de illegale oorlogen die de VS deze eeuw met hulp va andere NAVO-lidstaten is begonnen!!)

Israël is nog steeds bezig met de genocide op de Palestijnen en nog steeds steunen westerse regeringen deze fascistisch genocidale staat politiek en militair (en met wapenleveringen, Groot-Brittannië voert zelfs spionage vluchten uit boven de Gazastrook, waarvan de verzamelde gegevens worden doorgegeven aan het moorddadige Israëlische leger….

Rusland werd kort na de inval in Oekraïne uitgesloten van het Eurovisie Songfestival. Israël is nu al ruim 2 jaar bezig met het uitmoorden, verkrachten en martelen van Palestijnen, maar mag ook dit jaar weer gewoon meedoen…. Terwijl het Israëlische geweld 1.000 keer verder gaat dan dat van Rusland…. Ik hoorde afgelopen vrijdagmorgen op Deutschlandfunk dat men trots is dat Duitsland zich heeft uitgesproken tegen uitsluiting van Israël (van het songfestival), terwijl er bijna geen uur voorbijgaat zonder dat men op die radiozender anti-Russische propaganda brengt…… (en dat zo eenzijdig als alle reguliere westerse media dat deden en doen, alleen dat al zou ieder weldenkend mens super achterdochtig moeten maken!!)

Diezelfde afgelopen vrijdag berichtte men ‘s avonds op de Britse staatsradiozender BBC World Service na 23.00 u. (CET) al evenzeer over het Eurovisie Songfestival. Nog net werd genoemd dat een paar landen zich hadden teruggetrokken uit dit festival, al was dit volgens de presentator teruggebracht tot 1 land, vanwege ‘het conflict’ in de Gazastrook, zonder te stellen dat het hier om een overduidelijke genocide gaat. Men had een zionistische Israëlische journalist, die meteen ven leer trok en net deed alsof er op 7 oktober 2023 voor het eerst strijd was ontstaan tussen de Palestijnen en Israël met de uitbraak van Hamas uit de openluchtgevangenis die de Gazastrook was en is. (in werkelijkheid was hier al sprake van ver voordat Israël zich in 1948 illegaal als soeverein land neerzette). Deze namaak journalist hield zich aan het steeds groter wordende grote leugenboek dat Israël al sinds deze oprichting in 1948 hanteert en stelde dat Hamas op die bewuste 7 oktober 1.200 mensen had vermoord, terwijl het psychopathisch moordende Israëlische leger (IDF) zeker de helft van die 1.200 mensen heeft vermoord, dit in het kader van de Hannibal Richtlijn****, zoals onder andere is toegegeven door een ex-officier van het IDF.

Intussen heeft de psychopathische ploert, genocidepleger en pedo Trump de Franse rechter bij het Internationaal Gerechtshof (International Criminal Court >> ICC) Nicolas Guillou op de sanctielijst geplaatst vanwege zijn vervolging van genocidepleger Netanyahu en een paar van zijn oorlogsmisdadige kabinet…. Deze rechter heeft geen toegang meer tot zijn bankrekening en kan niet meer reizen, mede met dank aan de slaafse VS-vazallen in de EU, Groot-Brittannië en Canada…..***** Een schande van bijna ongekende proporties!!

Guillou kan zelfs in zijn eigen land Frankrijk geen gebruik meer maken van zijn bankrekening, daar alle stortingen en betalingen, die nodig zijn voor zijn rekening, zijn geblokkeerd, dus een ban op het gebruik van >> Visa, Mastercard, American Express en het zogenaamde Europese SWIFT banken betaal systeem…. Waardoor zelfs zijn leven onmogelijk wordt gemaakt, bovendien zijn de toegangen tot zijn accounts op WhatsApp, alle Google apps, Facebook en Instagram geblokkeerd voor gebruik…. Een reservering voor een hotelkamer werd 2 uur na boeking geannuleerd door Expedia….. Je zou denken dat dit alles tot grote protesten van de EU regeringen zou hebben geleid, maar nee, zelfs zijn eigen regering doet niets om hem te beschermen tegen deze meer dan schunnige gang van zaken, integendeel men werkt er zelfs aan mee…… Hiermee hebben de westerse EU-staten zich in feite monddood gemaakt en staan ze op de rangorde zelfs onder de staten in de VS….

Dan nog het volgende: naast de reguliere westerse media fungeert ook Google als spreekbuis van het fascistisch genocidale Netanyahu bewind:

In het WDR5 nieuws van 16.00 u. vanmiddag het bericht over het bezoek van de Duitse bondskanselier met fascistische neigingen Merz aan Israël, waar hij nogmaals de onvoorwaardelijke steun van Duitsland toezegde, wel met de toevoeging dat Duitsland enigszins verontrust is over de situatie in de Gazastrook. Daarna liet de Palestijnenslachter Netanyahu weten dat Israël zal doorgaan in de Gazastrook tot Hamas is vernietigd, ofwel tot alle Palestijnen zijn uitgemoord…. Uiteraard gaf Merz daar geen verweer op……

Het volgende artikel werd geschreven door Hodo Matar en werd gepubliceerd op Drop Site. In dit artikel aandacht voor de illegale uitbreiding van Israëlisch gebied. Daaronder een artikel over Keir Starmer die afgelopen zomer volkomen lak had aan ‘zijn politie’, waarvan de top wilde voorkomen dat Maccabi supporters afreisden naar hun land, nadat ze hadden gezien wat deze ronduit terroristen hadden aangericht in Amsterdam…. Amsterdam waar de burgemeester, hare GroenLinks kwaadaardigheid Halsema, de politie niet liet optreden tegen deze terroristen, maar op tilt sloeg toen Marokkaanse jongeren hun landgenoten begonnen te verdedigen (het Maccabi geteisem schreeuwde zelfs herhaaldelijk dat alle arabieren moeten worden vermoord, ze vielen mensen aan waarvan ze dachten dat het arabieren waren en vernielden eigendommen), uiteindelijk konden de Maccabi terroristen zonder enig probleem vertrekken en werden Marokkanen veroordeeld tot gevangenisstraffen, mensen die waren opgekomen voor hun landgenoten: Berbers en arabieren (en uiteraard ook voor Berbers en arabieren uit andere landen….)…. Nog steeds ongelofelijk!!!

“A Second West Bank”: Israeli Military Raids Escalate in Occupied Syrian Border Villages

Israeli forces are entrenching even further in Syria as Benjamin Netanyahu says he wants a demilitarized “buffer zone” stretching to Damascus.

QUNEITRA, SYRIA—In what has become a regular occurrence in southwest Syria, Israeli tanks and troops stormed the Quneitra countryside on Monday, taking up positions in the village of Saida Al-Hanout. As drones flew overhead, Israeli military units set up a temporary checkpoint and searched civilians before eventually withdrawing.

Over the past year, Israeli forces have established nine military posts in southern Syria; constructed military installations less than one kilometer from villages; demolished at least 12 buildings in al-Hamidiya; razed over 45 hectares of the Jubata al-Khashab forest; and seized thousands of dunams of agricultural land, cutting off access to farmers’ livelihoods. Local officials told Drop Site News that, in total, Israel has illegally seized between 600 and 800 square kilometers of southern Syrian territory through more than 200 incursions.

Israeli military operations in the area have escalated in recent weeks, with Israeli troops displacing residents, destroying farmland, snatching people off the streets and taking them across the border to Israeli detention centers.

In the deadliest attack over the past year, thirteen Syrians were killed, including two children, and dozens more wounded in an Israeli military raid on the southern village of Beit Jinn on Friday. Residents confronted Israeli forces who entered the village after shelling the area, leading to “violent clashes,” according to Syrian state news agency SANA.

The border area in southern Syria was previously a UN-patrolled, demilitarized buffer zone established in a 1974 disengagement agreement that officially ended hostilities between Israel and Syria. Israel seized most of the Golan Heights from Syria in the 1967 war, eventually building illegal settlements and unilaterally annexing the area in 1981—a move unrecognized by the international community. Since Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s ouster last December, Israel has occupied more Syrian territory—including the whole of Jabal al-Sheikh, a mountain that overlooks northern Israel and southern Syria—and has been further entrenching itself in recent weeks, advancing to the outskirts of Damascus in what critics say is nothing more than a land grab.

On Tuesday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he wants a new “buffer zone” on Syrian land stretching to the capital. “What we expect Syria to do is, of course, to establish a demilitarised buffer zone from Damascus to the buffer area, including the approaches to Mount Hermon and the Hermon peak,” Netanyahu said, using the Israeli name for Jabal al-Sheikh.

Last month, Israeli soldiers installed a permanent yellow gate without warning at the entrance to al-Samadaniyah al-Gharbiyah, a small farming village. The gate is located four kilometers (2.4 miles) (2.4 miles) from the center of Quneitra governorate, cutting the village off from neighboring towns and obstructing the main road that that residents rely on to reach markets, schools, and hospitals. It marked the fifth permanent gate erected by the Israeli military across Quneitra since Assad’s fall last year. Israeli soldiers now regularly stop and harass residents, turning daily life into an ordeal.

“They are trying to impose a new reality, so that they can exploit later,” Hayel al-Abdullah, the village head of al-Samadaniyah al-Gharbiyah, told Drop Site.

Netanyahu visited Israeli military positions in Syria last week in a publicized trip that prompted widespread condemnation. Accompanied by top defense and security officials, Netanyahu reviewed deployments, received operational briefings, and argued that Israel’s continued presence in the cross-border buffer zone was essential for national security. The Syrian government condemned the move as a “serious violation” of its sovereignty and called for a full Israeli withdrawal and return to the 1974 agreement though it has taken no other action.

Life Under Occupation

Israel’s military expansion in southern Syria has been accompanied by systematic intimidation, with troops raiding homes in the middle of the night, setting up flying checkpoints without warning, and isolating villages behind military barricades and gates. Dozens of families have fled the area, according to residents and local officials, and over 40 Syrians have been detained.

A number of residents told Drop Site News that they are routinely stopped at both temporary and permanent checkpoints, where soldiers search them, inspect their belongings, and scroll through the contents of their mobile phones.

Majd Azzam, a man in his 20s from the village of Al-Asbah, was hospitalized after Israeli soldiers beat him at a checkpoint in Kudnah in October. His offense was a photograph on his mobile phone with him wearing a keffiyeh, the traditional checkered scarf worn across the region, which the soldiers viewed as “terrorist attire,” Azzam’s father told Drop Site. “Any photo they consider suspicious, they arrest the phone’s owner, or at minimum they beat him,” he said.

The number of home raids has escalated sharply in recent weeks, according to two local residents, Khalil Layla and Abu Kinan Bakr, who said Israeli soldiers frequently order all family members outside before conducting exhaustive searches “turning the home upside down.”

Abd al-Aziz al-Mousa, a driver who navigates the shifting network of barriers daily, said the pressure and harassment on residents is constant. “The patrols and flying checkpoints can appear at any time, anywhere,” he told Drop Site.

Closed roads and rerouted paths have made it difficult for residents to reach jobs, schools, and farmland. In mid-November, the Israeli military installed a temporary checkpoint at al-Samadaniyah al-Sharqiya for five hours, preventing residents from reaching their schools, workplaces, and local markets.

Khaled al-Khalil, a Syrian journalist and an expert on Israeli-Syrian affairs, said Quneitra has become “a second West Bank,” with Israel behaving as a brutal occupying power. “They resort to military aggression to secure their borders, using arrests, incursions and harassment of residents,” Al-Khalil said.

As is the case in the West Bank, the Israeli occupation has also disrupted the olive harvest in Quneitra, a cornerstone of the local economy and cultural identity. The Quneitra governorate is home to 400,000 olive trees, 350,000 of them productive, according to Jamal Ali, the provincial agriculture director. Roughly one-third now lie under Israeli control, with farmers barred from accessing thousands of hectares of agricultural land.

Ahmed Khair Allah—a farmer from the village of al-Esha, located 35 kilometers (21.7 miles) away from Quneitra—said residents are still waiting for permission from Israeli forces to harvest olives on the slopes of Tal al-Ahmar Gharbi, which Israeli forces have occupied and turned into a military base.

With the Syrian state largely absent in Quneitra, residents have used the UN Disengagement Observer Force (UNDOF), which monitors the buffer zone under a 1973 Security Council resolution, as an intermediary with the Israeli military. “We knock on the UN gate and inform them of our request, then wait for a response from the occupation forces,” Khair Allah said.

Mohammed Layla, a resident of Tarinjah, said UN forces retreat when they encounter Israeli forces on the road, and that Israeli tanks have positioned themselves near UN forces who take no action. UNDOF has issued no public statement on the recent incursions.

Jamil Abu Omar, the village head of al-Asbah in the southwestern border strip, said some of his village’s olive groves stretch along the slopes of Tal al-Ahmar Sharqi and Tal al-Ahmar Gharbi, where an Israeli flag now flies. He said twenty families have left the village for Damascus and the surrounding areas in recent weeks, driven out by the military pressure.(als je de Engelse taal niet beheerst, zet dan de tekst om in Nederlands met behulp van Google translate dat je rechts bovenaan deze pagina ziet staan, klik eerst in het menu op ‘Engels’, waarna je weer kan klikken op die vertaalapp, daarna zie je bovenaan in het menu ‘Nederlands’ staan >> klik daarop en de hele tekst staat vervolgens in het Nederlands, de vertaling is van een redelijk goede kwaliteit.)

Village heads estimate that a total of 60 families have been displaced from al-Asbah, al-Esha, al-Hamidiyah, and Bir Ajam since last December.

At least 46 Syrians have been detained and imprisoned in Israel over the past year according to Sajjel, a platform that tracks Israeli violations in southern Syria. Family members have no information about their whereabouts or conditions of detention and say they have contacted the UN and the Red Cross to no avail.

A young man who spoke to Drop Site on condition of anonymity said he was detained on November 10th along with his father, uncle, and cousin after they went to go check on the family farm. Neighbors had warned them that Israeli troops had raided the property overnight. When they arrived, they found the farm ransacked. After leaving, they were stopped by an Israeli patrol around 500 meters down the road.

“They handcuffed us and blindfolded us,” the man said. Within minutes, they arrived at what he believed was either al-Horriya base or al-Hamidiya base. He was held for a full day and night without interrogation before being released the following day near his home. His father, uncle, and cousin remain in custody. The family contacted the village heads of al-Hamidiya and al-Samadaniyah to try and get more information. When the mukhtar of al-Samadaniyah asked a passing Israeli patrol about the detainees, the soldiers reportedly only said “They are under investigation.” The UNDOF told the family it had no information.

Safa al-Safadi, from Beit Jinn, said seven people from her village were detained in June during a large raid on the area. She described long hours contacting state ministries trying to find out their fate, without receiving any answer.

Khalil Layla’s village of Tarinjah was raided one night in November. His brother Muhammad was taken along with others from Jabata al-Khashab. “We contacted the UN post, which in turn contacted the occupation forces, who acknowledged their presence but provided no additional information,” he told Drop Site.

As with thousands of Palestinians in Israeli custody, Syrian detainees have been swallowed up in Israel’s prison system with no due process. Palestinian lawyer Khaled al-Mahajnah, who is a member of the Commission of Detainees and Ex-Detainees Affairs in Palestine, confirmed that Syrian detainees are being held in Ofer Prison in the occupied West Bank. Separately, lawyer Ahmad al-Mousa, who resides in Germany, has documented the names of 46 prisoners and corresponded with more than a dozen international bodies about the detentions with no recourse.

Across the southern Syrian countryside, occupying Israeli forces have now become a dangerous reality of everyday life. Last month, Um Mohammed Layla was picking olives in her grove close to the village of Tarinjah, as her young children played nearby when a drone appeared overhead. Moments later, Israeli soldiers arrived in the area. “The drones hover above the trees while children play, then soldiers from the occupation suddenly appear among the fields and on village roads, spreading terror and fear,” she said.

Maccabi Tel Aviv row breaks Starmer’s cover story for colluding in genocide

The legal and ethical earthquake from Israel’s carnage in Gaza was never going to be contained there. As the Aston Villa row shows, the shockwaves for Britain will keep growing louder

Jonathan Cook

October 28, 2025

[First published by Middle East Eye]

No one should be surprised that British Prime Minister Keir Starmer confected yet another duplicitous antisemitism furore last week – one in which he implicitly cast West Midlands Police as colluding in Jew hatred and insisted that British Muslims be exposed to racist violence from visiting foreign football hooligans.

Starmer had demanded that a decision by the police to bar fans of an Israeli club, Maccabi Tel Aviv, from attending a Europa League match in Birmingham next month be overturned.

He indicated that the West Midlands force had approved the ban on the grounds that hatred towards Jews in Britain had reached such fever pitch that police could no longer guarantee the Israeli fans’ safety from antisemitic violence.

His reasoning defamed both the British public and the police. The media lost no time in amplifying his narrative.

But Starmer’s claims were pure disinformation – as he surely knew from the police intelligence reports that must have been submitted to him before he called for the ban to be reversed.

Sadly for Starmer, those assessments were leaked to the media. They show that West Midlands Police made the decision after receiving reports from Dutch police that Maccabi fans had instigated racist violence in Amsterdam last year – before, during and after a match with local team Ajax.

As one source with inside knowledge of the police assessments told the Guardian: “The biggest risk was always the extreme Maccabi fans who want to fight.” It had taken 5,000 Dutch police officers three days to bring the violence to an end.

The likely cost of policing next month’s Aston Villa game was estimated at at least £6m ($8m), and would have required the deployment of large numbers of specialist riot squads from across the UK.

Not unreasonably, the police concluded that giving licence to Israeli football hooligans seeking to make good on chants of “Death to Arabs” in an ethnically diverse city like Birmingham was a bad idea.

According to the assessment, even members of the Jewish community opposed letting Maccabi fans attend.

Many of the Israeli club’s hardcore supporters – those that attend away fixtures – are likely to be current or reserve soldiers who have participated in the Gaza genocide. They deserve arrest, not the UK rolling out the red carpet.

Race relations fires

But strangely, Starmer did not see it this way. In his eyes, it seems, foreign thugs and war criminals should enjoy greater privileges in Britain than local ethnic minorities. Maccabi hooligans’ right to bring their genocidal incitement and violence to the UK trumps the right of minorities to be protected.

What political advantage his advisers thought he would gain is hard to grasp. Starmer simply added yet more fuel to Britain’s race relations fires – by smearing, once again, Muslims as antisemitic and “un-British”. The only beneficiary will be Nigel Farage’s Reform party.

So what on earth is going on?

In normal circumstances, this kind of behaviour from a government whose polling figures are in freefall – and whose traditional urban heartlands are deserting it – would look like demented self-sabotage. But these are not normal times.

Starmer knows that US President Donald Trump’s “peace plan” has done nothing more than slow Israel’s genocide, and that the so-called “ceasefire”, which Israel is violating on a daily basis, will crumble sooner or later – more likely sooner.

The bad news from Gaza is not going away. But this time Israel will no longer be able to claim as a pretext that the carnage is necessary to “bring home” captives held by Hamas.

Israel’s criminality will be even more starkly on show – and so will Britain’s extensive collusion.

Starmer’s solution has been to furiously pump up fears of “antisemitism”, even if doing so – as with his implicit criticism of the West Midlands Police – makes him and his ministers look ridiculous, incompetent and bad-faith actors.

But there is a logic here – of sorts. The prime minister’s two-fold strategy on Gaza has been evident for a while.

On the one hand, Starmer has done the bare minimum to oppose Israel’s atrocities, and in the most mealy-mouthed way he can, so he can at least claim, however disingenuously, to be respecting international law.

That is what primarily drove his very belated and grudging recognition of Palestinian statehood, though he appended a raft of near-impossible conditions to hollow out the move.

And it is the rationale for his claimed – but entirely bogus – curbing of UK arms sales to Israel. In fact, Britain has been making record weapons sales to Israel since he became prime minister.

On the other, Starmer has sought to deflect attention from his core policy of inertia on Gaza – designed to keep him onside with Washington – by denouncing any meaningful criticism of Israel as posing a threat to British Jews.

Fortress state

To achieve this end, it has been necessary to wildly misrepresent the true source of the antisemitism threat in Britain.

Starmer needs to pin the blame for Jew hatred on those who oppose both Israel’s genocidal actions in Gaza and his own complicity in supporting Israel with arms, surveillance intelligence, and rhetorical and diplomatic cover.

That means his main target is the anti-racist left – a left he has been industriously purging from his own Labour Party since he became leader – and Muslim communities that identify most closely with Gaza’s suffering.

Meanwhile, he must distract attention from the real antisemites – those on the far-right, ranging from sections of the Conservative and Reform parties to an army of white nationalist goons led by Tommy Robinson, a notorious Islamophobe with multiple criminal convictions.

The ultra-right may hate Muslims and Jews equally, but they love the muscular, militarised fortress “Jewish state” of Israel, which prioritises the kind of ethnic purity and anti-Muslim bigotry they would love to see replicated in Britain.

In these circumstances, Starmer’s switch-and-bait has not been easy. Nonetheless, with the media’s backing, he has relentlessly smeared as “antisemites” anti-racists and British Jews – the “wrong sort” – who recoil from a genocide Israel claims it is doing in the name of all Jews.

Meanwhile, he has endorsed the conflation of a genocidal Israel, including its most violent football hooligans, with supposedly “right-thinking” British Jews – that is, those who identify with Israel so strongly they are blind to its crimes.

‘Clash of civilisations’

Starmer now serves as a prominent champion of the hard right’s much-loved “clash of civilisations” thesis, in which a Judeo-Christian West is assumed to be in a life-or-death, defensive war against a supposedly savage, bloodthirsty Islamic East.

In this narrative, Israel is the rampart against “barbarian Muslim hordes” seeking to storm the citadel of western civilisation.

Naturally, the right brushes aside any other explanation. Such as that Israel’s decades-long meddling in the region and relentless onslaughts on local populations – under the banner of Jewish supremacy, and brazenly as a western client state – may have incited the very response western publics are now encouraged to fear.

Starmer is no less dismissive of the self-sabotaging nature of the West’s foreign policy and its unstinting support for Israel, even in the midst of the Gaza genocide.

He cannot countenance the idea that the western-backed slaughter breathes life into assertions – once confined to more extreme groups – that there can be no accommodation with the West. That the West acts in bad faith. That it treats the lives of non-westerners as entirely worthless.

Starmer’s commitment to the “clash of civilisations” worldview was less obvious when he was continuing the previous government’s manufactured fight with “pampered, out-of-touch students” in encampments or “Hamas-sympathising lefties” on anti-genocide marches.

But he has chosen to go further.

He has proscribed as “terrorists” – apparently an upgrade from “antisemites” – the activists of Palestine Action. Their unforgivable sin was to move from street protests to direct action. They sought to put a spoke in the wheels of the British government’s complicity with the genocide, targeting factories in the UK supplying weapons to Israel.

According to Britain’s draconian terrorism laws, it is also a terrorism offence to show any support for a proscribed organisation.

Starmer appears not to have foreseen that, as a result, the police would be forced to arrest thousands of upstanding citizens – including doctors, lawyers, barristers, retired military officers, and even a former adviser to King Charles.

They have refused to bend to his decree that no debate about the legality, let alone the morality, of Britain arming Israel’s genocide can be tolerated.

Face-off with police

But now things have turned even darker. Starmer’s current duplicity has led him into siding with violent Israeli football hooligans against his own police force and Muslim communities.

The fallout from his four-square support for Israel’s genocide is that Starmer has had to import more deeply into British domestic politics the inherently divisive “clash of civilisations” ideology.

In the process, he has risked revealing how much of a charade his antisemitism narrative has been from the start.

The government’s actions were never really about protecting the Jewish community. Rather, it has been cynically using British Jews as a collective human shield, allowing Starmer to denounce any meaningful criticism of Israel as posing a threat to the Jewish community.

Starmer’s need for a cover story has been especially urgent because he was himself once a distinguished human rights lawyer, one who even served as the lead advocate in a case before the International Court of Justice in 2014 arguing that Serbia had committed genocide in the Croatian city of Vukovar.

How is he to explain his behaviour partnering with Israel and Washington over Gaza’s destruction, when it has required him to shred Britain’s obligations under international law?

He cannot claim ignorance, should there come a day when he is brought before the judges of the International Criminal Court (ICC).

So the story Starmer has been crafting instead is that he is the saviour of Britain’s Jewish community, that he has been charting a difficult course in the face of a supposedly rampant antisemitism from the left, from Muslims, from anti-genocide marchers, from student encampments, from human rights groups, from Holocaust scholars, from the United Nations, from the ICC, and now from the British police.

The over-arching narrative is that Starmer has been one of the key bulwarks against the return of Jew hatred to Europe.

The price required to protect British Jews, so this story goes, has been his role as a “critical friend” to Israel, working behind the scenes to curb its worst excesses, while damping down criticism of Israel that risks inflaming antisemitism.

The main problem for Starmer is that he is being forced to confront more and more groups and institutions to sustain this narrative – to the point where he put himself effectively in a face-off with the British police.

‘Lab rats’

Opponents of the genocide warned from the outset that what started in Gaza could not be contained there. The slaughter would inevitably provoke polarising dissent in the West, require the crushing of basic rights to silence critics of western complicity, and gradually normalise authoritarianism.

Starmer’s behaviour has proved just how correct those prognoses were.

The British prime minister’s woes are not about to end, as recent developments demonstrate. Rather, the danger continues to grow of him being charged one day as an accessory to genocide.

Francesca Albanese, the UN’s international law expert for the occupied Palestinian territories, helps make that case in a report published last week. Entitled “Gaza Genocide: A Collective Crime”, she highlights the collusion of western states in Israel’s litany of atrocities.

She notes how keen western leaders have been to portray Israel’s onslaught “as a battle of civilisation against barbarism”. In doing so, “they have reproduced the Israeli distortions of international law and colonial tropes, seeking to justify their own complicity in genocide”.

She identifies four sectors where western support has been indispensable in allowing Israel to continue its crimes: diplomatic, military and economic backing, as well as the ideological framing of Israel’s bombing and starvation of Gaza’s people as self-defence, producing a “humanitarian” problem that needs addressing rather than serving as proof of Israel’s genocidal intent.

In this last regard, she specifically names Starmer. In three separate interviews as opposition leader, he claimed that Israel had a “right” to carry through threats to cut off water and power to Gaza’s population.

As she points out, Israel cannot invoke a right to “self-defence” in Gaza under Article 51 of the UN Charter, when it has been holding the enclave’s people under a belligerent, decades-old occupation.

Starmer knows this.

Instead she argues that western leaders like Starmer have echoed the assumptions of a racist, colonial discourse in which non-westerners are viewed as “savages” who are undeserving of the protections of international law.

That discourse serves to conceal the huge profits western corporations have been reaping by colluding in Israel’s long occupation, as she documented in a previous report.

Western businesses and governments have looked to Israel to use Palestinians as lab rats for testing new surveillance technologies, systems of control and displacement, and killing machines.

These forms of oppression are already being turned against domestic populations in the West.

She points out that Starmer’s government has made the most cursory of nods to international law, such as imposing entry restrictions on two fascist ministers in Netanyahu’s government, while treating other genocide-cheering figures, such as President Isaac Herzog and senior Israeli military officials, as honoured guests.

The UK has been evasive about whether it would enforce the ICC’s arrest warrant against Netanyahu for crimes against humanity – for the starvation of Gaza that Starmer endorsed. And the UK has done nothing to prosecute British citizens who have chosen to serve on Israel’s side in the Gaza genocide, or even dissuade them from participating.

Perhaps most egregiously, a British airbase on Cyprus has served as a crucial supply line for arms to Israel and for hundreds of UK surveillance flights over Gaza.

Albanese observes: “Flight numbers and durations, often coinciding with major Israeli operations, suggest detailed knowledge and cooperation in the destruction of Gaza, extending beyond ‘hostage rescue’.”

‘Political stunt’

The International Court of Justice (ICJ), often known as the World Court, threw its own substantial weight last week behind a verdict that also implicates western leaders such as Starmer.

It was the court’s third ruling since Israel launched its campaign of slaughter in Gaza two years ago.

The first had found it “plausible” Israel was committing genocide. ICJ judges are currently investigating that charge.

The second ruling, last summer, concluded that Israel’s decades-long occupation and Jewish settlement of the Palestinian territories were illegal; that Israel must immediately withdraw from those territories, including Gaza; and that other states were obligated to put whatever pressure they could on Israel to comply.

Israel has gone in exactly the opposite direction, with its parliament last week voting to formally annex the occupied West Bank.

US Vice-President JD Vance, who was in Israel at the time babysitting Netanyahu to stop him sabotaging the ceasefire, called the parliamentary vote a “political stunt” and an “insult”.

But the White House’s concern appears to relate chiefly to the timing, which might threaten the ceasefire, rather than the substance.

His replacement, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, who arrived in Israel on Thursday, stated of the annexation vote: “At this time, it’s something that we … think might be counterproductive.” Note the conditional “At this time”.

The new, third ruling builds on the second – and hints at the likely outcome of the ICJ’s investigation of Israel for genocide. It finds Israel’s starvation policy in Gaza – the collective punishment of its population – in flagrant violation of international law.

The World Court justices declare: “The occupying Power may never invoke reasons of security to justify the general suspension of all humanitarian activities in an occupied territory.”

That should serve as a stinging rebuke to Starmer, who, as previously noted, declared that Israel had the right to carry out its declared policy of starving the people of Gaza.

The ICJ also rules that Israel must immediately allow in full supplies of food and aid, and cooperate with Unrwa, the UN aid agency that served as the main lifeline for the people of Gaza until Israel banned its operations last year based on a claim it had been infiltrated by Hamas.

The judges found that Israel had never produced any evidence to support such an allegation.

Health ‘catastrophe’

Israel replaced UN food distribution sites in Gaza with four, hard-to-reach “aid hubs” run by a US and Israeli military front group, the wildly misnamed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF). It brought in a trickle of aid while Israeli soldiers regularly sprayed gunfire on desperate Palestinians queueing for food, killing and wounding many thousands.

Trump’s 20-point “peace plan” expressly required of Israel that it allow aid distribution “through the United Nations and its agencies”. And yet last Friday Rubio changed his administration’s own rules, as well as defying the World Court, by stating that Unrwa could play “no role” in aid distribution because it was supposedly “a subsidiary of Hamas”.

Tied to Washington’s apron strings, Starmer, like other western leaders, has made vague noises against Israel’s genocidal starvation campaign in Gaza, notably after images of emaciated children came to dominate social media six months ago.

But beyond the optics, he has done nothing substantive to reverse his original support for Israel’s collective punishment of Gaza, its blocking of food, aid and power.

Albanese notes in her new report that, as the Israeli-engineered famine gripped Gaza in the spring, the UK was among a handful of countries that launched operations to parachute aid into the enclave – an operation she describes as “expensive, inadequate and dangerous”.

But even worse, she concludes, the aid drops “only served to mislead international public opinion while the famine worsened”.

When British citizens recently joined an aid flotilla to Gaza, in an attempt to highlight Israel’s illegal naval blockade of the enclave, Starmer pointedly refused to offer them protection, even when they were abducted on the high seas and held in highly abusive conditions in Israel.

Despite Starmer behaving as if Trump’s so-called “peace plan” has ended the “humanitarian crisis” in Gaza, the UN World Food Programme stated last week that aid deliveries continued to remain well below its daily target of 2,000 tonnces.

The World Health Organisation, meanwhile, has warned that the “health catastrophe” Israel has engineered in Gaza will last for “generations to come”.

Trump’s ‘masterplan’

Last week the US news show 60 Minutes interviewed Trump’s two pointmen on Gaza: his son-in-law Jared Kushner, and his special envoy Steve Witkoff.

Kushner was keen to highlight how much destruction Israel had unleashed there, explaining that it looked like a nuclear bomb had been dropped.

This appeared to be his clumsy way of underscoring what an achievement Trump had secured in bringing to a halt the orgy of violence – a campaign of destruction, of course, that was made possible only because the US endlessly supplied Israel with armaments.

But with rising panic etched on his face, Kushner could only look on as Witkoff revealed that the pair had been working on a “masterplan” for Gaza’s reconstruction for two years – long before Gaza was levelled by the Israeli military. “Jared has been pushing this,” Witkoff explained.

Analysts have preferred to characterise Trump’s earlier, stated ambition to “clear out” the people of Gaza and build a playground for the rich – a Gaza Riviera – as some kind of hair-brained, improvised response to the scale of the enclave’s devastation.

But Witkoff indicated something even more sinister. That the Trump team had been informed from the outset of Israel’s bombing campaign that the intention was to eradicate Gaza, not Hamas. And so the Trump entourage began working on a business plan to cash in on the carnage.

Gaza, long the western military-industrial complex’s laboratory for field-testing weapons and surveillance technology, would now be repurposed as the world’s biggest redevelopment site.

As 60 Minutes’ Lesley Stahl approvingly observed of businessmen Kushner and Witkoff: “Part of the plan is the reconstruction, the building, rebuilding of Gaza. And you’re builders. You’ve been in real estate.”

The implication from Witkoff’s slip was clear: that what looked like a genocidal ethnic cleansing operation from the start was indeed just that. Trump’s team knew of Israel’s intentions and began putting together deals – both with the oil-rich Gulf states and, according to Witkoff, with Europe too.

The only continuing obstacle are armed resistance movements in Gaza that Washington is determined to disarm.

Starmer, like other western leaders, has hitched his wagon to the psychopaths who have been running this two-year horror show. It is not going away. They are determined to see it out, and reap the financial rewards.

Which means Starmer will have to maintain his “clash of civilisations” cover story and continue miring British politics more deeply in this divisive narrative.

That will require further demonising Britain’s ethnic minorities. It will exacerbate the country’s race relations wars. It will deepen the polarisation of British politics. It will lead to an ever-greater hollowing out of fundamental democratic rights. And, ultimately, it will usher in the far right on Farage’s coat-tails.

The legal and ethical earthquake that is the Gaza genocide was never going to be contained in Gaza. Its repercussions are simply too large. As the Maccabi Tel Aviv row demonstrates, the shockwaves for Britain are only going to keep growing louder.

However, eyewitness accounts from both surviving Israeli civilians and military personnel involved in the fighting show that the vast majority of those killed died from fire from Israeli soldiers and tanks directed at buildings where the civilians were either hiding or being held hostage by Hamas fighters. It took two days for the Israeli military to recapture Re’im. It only did so after tanks fired into the civilian residences, collapsing them onto their occupants, and often setting them ablaze, causing the bodies of those inside to be consumed by fire. The Israeli government has publicized how it has had to make use of the services of forensic archeologists to identify human remains at the Kibbutz, implying that Hamas had burned the occupants’ home. But the fact is it was Israeli tanks that did the destruction and killing. (toegevoegd op 8 oktober 2025)

Not the end of a government or a system or an era—the end of everything. Hier een passage uit dit verontrustende artikel >> Even two bombs would be enough. Not two hundred. Not fifty. Two. Today’s thermonuclear weapons are a thousand times more powerful than those that incinerated Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Two of them, detonated over a period of weeks, would be sufficient to alter the global climate in ways that would kill billions of people.

‘A Cruel Truce‘ (15 januari 2026) Een artikel van Binoy Kampmark, gepubliceerd op Savage Minds >> Israel’s Shock-and-Awe Campaign in the West Bank. Hier een paar passages uit dit artikel >> The phrase (shock-and-awe) is apt in describing what Israel has done in the occupied West Bank almost immediately following the events of 7 October 2023, and the start of the Israeli genocide in Gaza. Though the policy (of shock-and-awe) is often discussed in the context of US foreign policy—from Iraq to Haiti—Israel has employed shock-and-awe tactics with greater frequency, consistency, and refinement. Unlike the US, which has applied the doctrine episodically across distant theaters, Israel has used it continuously against a captive population living under its direct military control. In a 12 January report, The New York Times found that Israel had razed over 2,500 buildings in the Strip since the ceasefire with Hamas commenced on October 10, 2025. These have been initiated on the Israeli side of the demarcated side known as the Yellow Line. The report, however, also notes the demolition of buildings on the side controlled by Hamas. “The scale of ongoing destruction is stark. Across eastern Gaza, in areas under Israeli control, satellite imagery reveals that entire blocks have been erased since the cease-fire, as well as swaths of farmland and agricultural greenhouses.”

‘Deconstructing Trump’s Gaza ‘Peace’ Plan (w/ Norman Finkelstein) | The Chris Hedges Report‘ (15 januari 2026) Een video met transcript van Chris Hedges >> The resolution, Finkelstein points out, annuls decades of precedent established under international law on Palestine — erasing its entire legal history.

‘Trump Aims To Destroy Iran, Not Democratize It w/ Laith Marouf‘ (14 januari 2026) Een video van en met inleiding door Dimitri Lascaris. Hier een deel van de inleiding >> After the fall of Bashar al-Assad, Israel’s military embarked upon a prolonged and intensive bombing campaign to destroy Syria’s capacity to defend itself. In recent weeks, the U.S. has joined in the bombing of Syria and in Israel’s project to convert Syria into a failed state. What does this tell us about Trump’s plans for Iran? The most logical inference is that, if the Islamic Republic falls, the U.S. and Israel will exploit its demise to cripple Iran permanently. Even worse, they may seek to dismember the country.

‘Barrister’s powerful speech at Filton Trial reminds jury of its right to defy judge‘ (14 januari 2026) Een artikel van Jonathan Cook >> Starmer and the media need convictions to justify Palestine Action’s proscription as a terrorist group. Rajiv Menon KC spells out to the jury why it is a vital last defence against government tyranny. Hier de eerste passage uit dit artikel >> My thanks to Craig Murray, former UK ambassador turned whistleblower, for alerting me to what he rightly calls “one of the greatest legal speeches – including historical speeches – I have ever read”. It is that indeed.

‘Every time, the media sides with the apologists for genocide‘ (13 januari 2026) Een artikel van Joanthan Cook >> Stop making moral outcasts of doctors and teachers for their principled opposition to genocide. Turn your fire instead on MPs, the media and pro-Israel lobby groups for their pitiless hypocrisy. Hier 2 passages uit dit artikel >> British-Palestinian doctor Ghassan Abu Sittah was cleared last week by a UK tribunal of misconduct charges, related to social media posts, that could have seen him removed from medical practice. The surgeon has been a focus of the Israel lobby’s vilification efforts, in large part, because he has been such a prominent and vocal advocate for Palestinians facing genocide in Gaza. He volunteered right at the start of Israel’s barbarous assault on the enclave, performing surgery on Palestinians who had been maimed by US-supplied bombs dropped by Israel. He was among the first to tell the world that what we were witnessing was a genocide.

‘Genocide Isn’t A Mistake‘ (12 januari 2026) Een artikel van Jonathan Cook >> Which Is Why The Media Can’t Tell You The Truth About Gaza. Dit artikel gaat over de film The Voice of Hind Rajab, het 5 jarig Palestijnse meisje dat op een gruwelijk langzame manier werd vermoord door beesten van het Israëlische leger, een film die in de VS ondanks een hoge prijs op het filmfestival van Venetië, daar amper wordt vertoond…..

‘Eastern Mediterranean Geopolitics Are Becoming More Complex‘ (11 januari 2026) Een artikel van Andrew Korybko >> Tensions are growing between Turkiye-Pakistan and Israel-Cyprus-Greece. Hier een passage uit dit artikel >> Stability in the Eastern Mediterranean can no longer be taken for granted as a result of three recent developments: 1) the growing Turkish-Israeli rivalry in post-Assad Syria; 2) Israel’s reported plans to establish a rapid response force with Cyprus and Greece; and 3) Turkish ally Pakistan’s new military ties with Eastern Libya’s General Khalifa Haftar. The aforesaid are unfolding amidst Israel’s plans for an underwater EastMed gas pipeline to Greece and Turkiye’s maritime claims that cut right across its route.

‘From Gaza to Venezuela, the US has been unmasked as the serial villain‘ (6 januari 2026) Een artikel van Jonathan Cook >> The path to Caracas – and potentially next to Colombia, Cuba and Greenland, other targets of Donald Trump’s colonial greed – was paved in Gaza. Hier de eerste 3 passages uit dit artikel >> For decades, the United States and Israel have stuck closely to their respective, scripted roles in the Middle East: the job of good cop and bad cop. The charade has continued despite Washington’s active participation in Israel’s 25-month slaughter of Gaza’s people – and a dawning realisation among ever-larger sections of western publics that they have been duped. Here is my first prediction of 2026: this law enforcement role-playing is going to continue even after the Trump administration’s outrageously illegal abduction of Venezuela’s president, Nicolas Maduro, at the weekend, and Trump’s admission that the US attack was about grabbing the country’s oil.

‘BlackNest: Inside Canary Mission’s Secret Web of Unlisted Sites’ (6 januari 2026) Een artikel van Jaqueline Sweet, gepubliceerd op Drop Site News >> One Canary Mission-affiliated website, BlackNest, reveals the group’s internal operations, plans to expand, and how they celebrate deportations and firings. Zionisten en christen-zionisten die pro-Palestijnse demonstranten en anderen die zich pro-Palestijns, anti-Israel uitlaten identificeren en aangeven bij o.a. hun werkgevers en overheidsorganen als ICE, Trumps Gestapo. Een paar jaar gelden werd al bekendgemaakt dat in Israël een task force is gevormd die zich bezighoudt met wat er over Israël wordt gepubliceerd en desnoods een media aanval uitvoert op de afzender/publicist.

‘“No Other Country”‘ (1 januari 2026) Een arftikel van Ross Mackay, gepubliceerd op Savage Minds >> Israel, the Pariah. Hier een passage uit dit artikel die beschrijft hoe beestachtig Israël omgaat met de Palestijnen, al zou ‘beestachtig’ inhouden dat dieren zich zo zouden gedragen, waar absoluut geen sprake van is!! >> Since the 1967 occupation, any residual doubt about Israel’s pariah status has vanished. A permanent regime of domination has taken shape: relentless illegal settlement expansion enforced by settler militias operating without fear of repercussion; the 700-kilometre apartheid wall annexing land, isolating communities, and entrenching de facto borders; environmental warfare through sewage dumping, land theft, and the uprooting of over a million olive trees; the routine use of “skunk water” to contaminate homes and neighbourhoods; mass imprisonment without charge; routine torture, sexual violence—including the use of dogs—forced stripping and filming, child detention, and deaths in custody; collective punishment through siege, starvation, and displacement; systematic destruction of homes, hospitals, schools, and cultural life; repeated regional attacks carried out with complete exemption from consequences; and targeted assassinations at home and abroad—Israel is the West’s leading practitioner of political assassination. Het westen heeft een paar dagen geleden (het is nu 2 januari 2025) een twintigste pakket aan sancties opgelegd aan Rusland, terwijl wat er in Oekraïne gebeurt nog niet in de schaduw kan staan van de gruwelijkheden die Israël de Palestijnen aandoet, echter tot op heden zelfs niet 1 westerse sanctie tegen deze monsterlijk gewelddadig genocidale fascistische staat….. Waar het westen zelfs kritiek op dit fascistische geweld durft af te schilderen als antisemitisme, ofwel dergelijk geweld wordt alleen getolereerd als zionisten dat uitoefenen….

‘Secessionist Pantomime‘ (2 januari 2026) Een artikel van Binoy Kampmark, gepublicerd op Savage Minds >> Israel Recognises Somaliland. Hier een passage uit dit artikel >> Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu shamelessly plagiarised the lingo and language kit of those Member States of the UN who dared treat the Palestinians as a national group worthy of acknowledged sovereignty. In a call with Somaliland President Abdirhaman Mohamed Abdullahi on 26 December, Netanyahu stressed the importance of Somaliland’s “right to self-determination” in recognising it.

‘Israel Bans Aid Groups For The Same Reason It Bans Journalists, And Other Notes‘ (1 januari 2026) Een artikel van Caitlin Johnstone >> Doctors and aid workers largely became the de facto journalists on the ground in Gaza when Israel banned international news media and began systematically assassinating Gaza-based Palestinian journalists. So Israel wants to get rid of those de facto reporters to hide its crimes. (al heeft Israel vanaf 7 oktober 2023 met opzet medisch personeel vermoord, gevangengenomen, verkracht en op andere manieren gemarteld, niet alleen worden de Palestijnen vermoord, middels honger en kou en directe massamoord, maar ook door alle medische hulp onmogelijk te maken, barbaarse schoftenpraktijken op Wereldoorlog II-Duits-nazi-niveau!!)

‘Trump, Netanyahu Signal Their Intent To Escalate Their Genocide‘ (31 december 2025) Een video met inleiding door Dimitri Lascaris. Hier de eerste 2 passages uit de inleiding >> As 2025 drew to a close, Netanyahu returned to the United States for yet another meeting with Donald Trump. At their press conference following their meeting, the chummy war criminals put on a nauseating display of genocidal bromance. They then signalled their intention to resume the mass slaughter of Palestinians by falsely claiming that the resistance in Gaza had agreed to disarm. (wat Hamas uiteraard niet doet, vergeet niet dat Hamas moet worden gezien als een verzetsgroep en zoals het verzet tijdens de Tweede Wereldoorlog in ons land door de nazi-Duitse bezetter en de Nederlandse politie destijds werd gezien als terreur!!)

‘Once again, the New York Times sells Israel’s genocide in Gaza as law enforcement‘ (31 december 2025) Een artikel van Jonathan Cook.>> Israel is expelling 37 aid groups – a likely death sentence for 100,000s of Palestinians. But the Times speaks only of ‘new rules’ in Gaza, and ‘suspensions’ for those who ‘resist registration’

‘This Is Not a Ceasefire‘ (31 december 2025) Een artikel van Vijay Prashads, gepubliceerd op Savage Minds >> The Israeli Genocide Continues. Hier een passage uit dit artikel >> That first ceasefire ended in March and was only revived in October 2025. During the intervening period, Israel took advantage of the situation to pummel Gaza once more without facing criticism from its major backers in Europe and the United States (who continued to arm Israel). The second “ceasefire” has been as ineffective as the first, with Israel having violated its terms 969 times between 10 October and 29 December.

‘Francesca Albanese and the Lonely Road of Defiance‘ (30 december 2025) Een artikel van Chris Hedges >> The U.N. special rapporteur is one of the most courageous crusaders against the genocide in Gazen. Because of this, she is blacklisted and treated as if she is a terrorist. In dit artikel wordt onder andere aandacht besteed aan een rapport van the Human Rights Council besteed >> ‘From economy of occupation to economy of genocide‘ Zie het rapport voor meer details, hier een passage uit dit rapport >> In her report, Francesca lists 48 corporations and institutions, including Palantir Technologies, Lockheed Martin, Alphabet Inc., Amazon, International Business Machines Corporation (IBM), Caterpillar Inc., Microsoft Corporation and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), along with banks and financial firms such as BlackRock, insurers, real estate firms and charities, which in violation of international law, are making billions from the occupation and the genocide of Palestinians.

‘The Israeli Government Put My Name At The Top Of An ‘Antisemite’ List‘ (30 december 2025) Een artikel van Caitlin Johnstone >> My name appears at the top of a list in a document the Israeli government released earlier this month in order to draw false associations between the Bondi Beach shooting and online criticism of Israel and its atrocities.

‘One Year Since Israel Abducted Dr. Abu Safiya‘ (27 december 2025) Een artikel van Ana Vračar >> International Calls Grow for the Release of Palestinian Health Workers. Hier de eerste 2 passage suit dit artikel >> On 27 December 2024, Israeli occupation forces (IOF) set fire to Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza and proceeded to abduct its director, Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya. The pediatrician has now spent a year in Israeli prisons, amid consistent reports of abuse, violence, and torture. “His only ‘crime’ was taking care of patients in his hospital until the final moments before Israel abducted him,” CODEPINK wrote in an appeal. “He remains in Israeli detention—alongside hundreds of other medical workers abducted from Gaza—subjected to the kind of violence that should be condemned universally.”

‘They Feign Concern About Pro-Palestine Chants In Order To Shut Down Pro-Palestine Protests‘ (29 december 2025) Een artikel van Caitlin Johnstone >> If they weren’t concern-trolling about “globalize the intifada” they’d make up some other excuse to express their concern, and they know it. Hier de eerste passage uit dit artikel >> It’s such an insult to our intelligence how Israel supporters pretend it’s the WAY pro-Palestine protests are happening that they object to, and not the protests themselves. Like if protesters were saying different chants they’d be totally cool with opposition to Israel’s crimes.

‘Two Years, One Million Dead, Zero Consequences: What Did Israel Lose? Nothing‘ (28 december 2025) Een artikel van Karim, gepubliceerd op BettBeat Media >> Name One Consequence. You Can’t. Welcome to Capitalism. Hier een deel uit dit artikel >> The ledger is in. The accountants have tallied the columns. And the verdict of the market is clear: genocide pays. Two years into Israel’s systematic extermination of the Palestinian people, we can now assess the returns on investment. The International Criminal Court has issued arrest warrants for Benjamin Netanyahu. Independent estimates suggest the death toll approaches one million souls—though we will never know the true number, because the dead cannot be counted when the counters themselves are buried beneath the rubble. The entire population of Gaza has been displaced, starved, bombed, and terrorized in what historians will one day recognize as the most documented genocide in human history. As you read this sentence, Palestinian babies are freezing to death in tents shredded by icy winds—and the world is discussing fake ‘ceasefire’ terms over coffee. And Israel has never been more powerful. This is not tragedy nor failure. This is the system working exactly as designed.

‘The Case for Expelling Israel from Eurovision‘ (26 december 2025) Een artikel van Ramzy Baroud en Romana Rubeo. Hier 3 passages uit dit artikel >> “Complicity” is a possible alternative, though still not enough to fully explain the West’s insistence on whitewashing the Israeli genocide against the Palestinian people. Many of those protesting Israel’s inclusion in the competition, which typically attracts tens of millions of viewers worldwide, rightly note that Russia was expelled within 36 hours after its February 2022 invasion of Ukraine. In fact, the Russian example does not stop at Eurovision. Thousands of such sanctions have been slapped against Moscow in every possible field, from politics to the economy to sports, culture, and more.

‘Hunger Strikers’ Lives at Risk‘ (26 december 2025) Een artikel van Ana Vračar, gepuibliceerd op Savage Minds >> Starmer Government Refuses Engagement and Continues Its Support of Genocide. Hier de eerstre passage uit dit artikel >> More Palestine solidarity hunger strikers in Britain have been hospitalized over the past week, as half of those taking part in the protest pass more than 50 days without food. While Keir Starmer’s administration continues to refuse engagement with the activists’ demands, health workers and family members warn of serious risks of death. Testimonies from the strikers themselves describe harsh physical decline. “I don’t think people realize how serious this is, as on day 35 you risk brain damage, organ failure and heart attack,” Rahma Hoxha, sister of hunger striker Teuta Hoxha, said on 18 December.

‘Palantir’s Palestine: How AI Gods Are Building Our Extinction‘ (26 december 2025) Een artikel van Karim, gepubliceerd op BettBeat Media. >> The machines are not coming for us. They are already here. And the men who control them have made their intentions terrifyingly clear. Hier 2 passages uit dit artikel >> Professor Stuart Russell has spent fifty years studying artificial intelligence. He wrote the textbook from which nearly every AI CEO in Silicon Valley learned their craft. And now, at eighty hours a week, he works not to advance the field he helped create, but to prevent it from annihilating the species. “They are playing Russian roulette with every human being on Earth,” Russell said in a recent interview, his voice carrying the weight of someone who has seen the calculations and understood their implications. “Without our permission. They’re coming into our houses, putting a gun to the head of our children, pulling the trigger, and saying, ‘Well, you know, possibly everyone will die. Oops. But possibly we’ll get incredibly rich.’”

‘Stop Picking On Poor Little Israel‘ (23 december 2025) Een artikel van Caitlin Johnstone >> There was a mass shooting in Australia so now everyone needs to shut up and do whatever Israel wants. Israel feels sad about the shooting so now it gets to do a bit more genocide, as a treat. It’s only fair. Hier nog een passage uit dit uiterst sarcastische maar mooie artikel >> You just hate Jews. That’s the only possible reason you could spend so much time obsessing about this one tiny little harmless country: you’ve got a crazy, irrational fixation on a small abrahamic religion, because you’re a weirdo. Stop saying it’s actually about all the wars and atrocities and apartheid and starving children and lobbying and propaganda and nonstop assaults on your civil rights and your government’s complicity in genocidal abuses and the fact that you can’t engage in any aspect of society without having pro-Israel influence operations shoved down your throat. No. That’s not it. It’s because you get freakishly enraged by small hats.

‘How reporting facts can now land you in jail for 14 years as a terrorist‘ (22 december 2025) Een artikel van Jonathan Cook >> Starmer’s government has set the most dangerous of precedents: it can now outlaw any political group it chooses as a terrorist organisation – and thereby make it impossible to defend it. Fascistische wetgeving in Groot-Brittannie, hier 2 passages uit dit artikel >> The moment the British government began proscribing political movements as terrorist organisations, rather than just militant groups, it was inevitable that saying factual things, making truthful statements, would become a crime. And lo behold, here we are. The Terrorism Act 2000 has a series of provisions that make it difficult to voice or show any kind of support for an organisation proscribed under the legislation, whether it is writing an article or wearing a T-shirt.

‘Western elites fear a ‘globalised intifada’ because they are its targets, not Jews‘ (20 december 2025) Een artikel van Jonathan Cook >> While western publics are being demonised as racists, the technology and strategies used today against Palestinians will become the walls of tomorrow’s prisons for us all.

‘The Three Narratives‘ (20 december 2025) Een artikel van Ramzy Baroud, gepubliceerd op Savage Minds >> Gaza as the Last Moral Frontier against Israel’s Policy of Annihilation. Hier een passage uit dit artikel >> The third narrative is Israel’s—and it is the only one backed by concrete, aggressive policy. This vision is written through sustained, systematic violence against civilians, aggressive land seizures, deliberate home demolitions, and explicit government declarations that a Palestinian state will never be permitted. Its actors operate with chilling impunity, rapidly creating irreversible facts on the ground. Crucially, the failure to enforce accountability for this pervasive violence is the primary reason Israel has been able to sustain its devastating genocide in Gaza for two full years.

Hoe heeft de wereld deze verneitiging kunnen toestaan zonder ook maar 1 sanctie….. (en nog steeds gaat de genocide door…..)

‘Hamas: We Did Not Surrender and Will Not Abandon Our Struggle for Liberation‘ (19 december 2025) Een artikel van Jeremy Scahill and Jawa Ahmad >> As Trump scrambles to push his nebulous Gaza plan forward, the Palestinian resistance says Israel is continuing its pattern of abusing “peace” agreements to further its war of annihilation. En vergeet nooit dat Hamas een verzetsorganisatie is, zoals Nederland tijdens de nazi-bezetting in de Tweede Wereldoorlog meerdere verzetsorganisaties had, die door de Duitse nazi-bezetter werden weggezet als terreurgroepen!!!

‘Using the Slain‘ (16 december 2025) Een artikel van Binoy Kampmark, gepubliceerd op Savage Minds >> Hier de eerste passage uit dit artikel >> Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rarely passes an opportunity to comment upon the way Jews in other countries are treated. While the manic hatred directed against Jews remains one of history’s grotesque legacies, opportunism in the Netanyahu government is a ready instinct. With a customary sense of perversion, Netanyahu has managed to mangle Israeli policy, his own political destiny and the interests of Jews in a terrible, terrifying mix. The broad stroke charge of antisemitism is the front name of this venture, and it conveniently presents itself whenever Israeli policy requires an alibi when pursuing particularly unsavoury policies: massacre, starvation and dispossession of Gazans; the continued destruction and intended eradication of a functional Palestinian entity; efforts to prevent criticism of its settler policies in other countries.

‘Garbage Is Poisoning Gaza‘ (16 december 2025) Een artikel van Abdel Qader Sabbah en Sharif Abdel Kouddous, gepubliceerd op Drop Site News >> With Israel controlling all of Gaza’s major landfill areas, 900,000 tons of solid waste have been dumped across the enclave, exacerbating a public health crisis.

‘The lobby is milking the Bondi Beach attack to silence critics of Israel’s genocide‘ (16 december 2025) Een artikel van Jonathan Cook >> It is years of dedicated work by the Israel lobby that has ensured the mass murder of Palestinians is viewed by governments, the media and parts of the Jewish community as entirely legitimate (en dat geldt zelfs voor de genocide die de fascistische apartheidsstaat Israël uitvoert op de Palestijnen, dagelijks worden daar nog steeds meerdere Palestijnen vermoord, zonder enige ophef bij de overgrote meerderheid van de westerse bevolking, hun media en politici!!!)

‘Israel’s biggest con trick: Hiding the true numbers it has killed in Gaza‘ (10 december 2025) Een artikel van Jonathan Cook >> Israel has penned us all into a ‘debate’, one entirely divorced from reality, that relates only to those killed directly by its bombs and gunfire – not the genocide it is waging by other means. Hier 2 passages uit dit artikel >> The truth is that far, far larger numbers of people in Gaza have been actively killed by Israel not through these direct means but through what statisticians refer to as “indirect” methods. These people were killed by Israel destroying their homes and leaving them with no shelter. By Israel destroying their water and electricity supplies and their sanitation systems. By Israel levelling their hospitals. By Israel starving them. By Israel creating the perfect conditions for disease to spread. The list of ways Israel is killing people in Gaza goes on and on.

‘I Thought I Knew What Genocide Was >> Listening to the Testimonies of People in Gaza, I Realised I Know Nothing About Suffering‘ (9 december 2025) Een artikel van Biljana Vankovska, gepubliceerd op Savage Minds. Hiere een passage uit dit artikel >> As a professor who has spent over 40 years studying questions of war and peace, international law and relations—and, above all, the human consequences of armed conflict—I once believed I knew what genocide was. De auteur was deelnemer aan het Gaza Tribunaal dat plaatsvond in Istanbul van 23 tot 26 oktober 2025, als volgende nog een aantal punten uit de verklaring van bevindingen en het morele oordeel over de genocide, die werd en wordt uitgevoerd op dePalestijnen in de Gazastrook (zie ook het artikel van Ramzy Baroud over het Gaza Tribunaal verderop hieronder, gepubliceerd op 6 november 2025):

The Jury condemns the commission of the following additional crimes:

– Starvation and famine throuhgh the deliberate denial of food, water and systematic destruction of the entire food system.

– Domicide is more than the intentional mass destruction of residential properties and their infrastructure – electricity, water and sanitation. A home is about love, life, a repository of memories, hopes and aspiration. Its destruction causes displacement, trauma, the disintegration of communities and profound cultural loss.

– Ecocide describes a particular kind of warfare based on ruination of land fertility, air quality, sources of food and water: catastrophic environmental damage that destroys the capacity to survive after the bombing ceases.

– Deliberate destruction and targeting of the healthcare infrastructure, equipment and personnel have been systematic for decades and has become almost total. The most important issue for physical and mental health is the Israeli occupation and the dehumanisation of the population.

– Reprocide is the intentional and systematic targeting of Palestinian reproductive care through prevention of births, eliminating future lives and the ability to reproduce safely.

– Scholasticide is the genocide of knowledge, the destruction of Palestine’s intellectual future through the killing, silencing and displacing a generation of students and teachers, obliteration of schools and universities, destroying dreams and aspirations.

– Attacks on journalists. ‘Genocide documentation’ is carried out by Palestinian journalists and they and their families are targeted. Silencing these journalists is instrumental to the concealment of the genocide and more journalists have been killed than in any other conflict.

– Torture, sexual violence, disappearances, gender-based violence in detention, at checkpoints, in house searches, in displacement and elsewhere.

– Politicide is the targeted assassination and kidnapping of political and cultural leaders, representatives, activists, and destruction of civic institutions.

The Jury finds a coherent and consistent pattern of exterminatory violence in the intentional and targeted destruction of homes, water supplies, schools, hospitals, clinics, universities, cultural and religious institutions, agricultural land, and natural ecosystems. The weaponization of hunger, denial of medical care, and forced displacement are not collateral damages of war—they are instruments of collective punishment of the entire population and of genocide. They are not justified by any claim of military objectives.

Since the Gaza genocide began over two years ago, thousands of Palestinians have been disappeared into cages, camps, and subterranean cells, denied sunlight, food, medical care and even their own names.

Hier een passage uit dit artikel >> Palestine 36, directed by the remarkable Palestinian film-maker Annemarie Jacir, illuminates more about the events unfolding for the past two years in Gaza than anything you will read in a British newspaper or watch on the BBC – if, that is, you can find anything at all about Gaza in the news since Donald Trump rebranded the killing and dispossession of Palestinians as a “ceasefire”.

Hier een passage uit dit artikel >> It did not take long for those well versed about human rights to protest this scrappy measure as absurd and needlessly authoritarian. The UN Human Rights Office of the High Commissioner, counting among their number Francesca Albanese, Ben Saul and Irene Khan, issued a press release in early July expressing their bafflement at the proscription. “According to international standards, acts of protest that damage property, but are not intended to kill or injure people, should not be treated as terrorism.” Since the addition of Palestine Action to the naughty list of outlawed organisations, over 2,200 arrests have been made citing terrorism legislation, with 254 people charged with terrorism offences merely for participating in peaceful protests.

And a battle is brewing over who speaks for the Palestinian liberation cause. Hier nog een passage uit dit artikel >> “It’s an Israeli plan that has been rebranded as a Trump plan,” said Diana Buttu, a human rights lawyer who previously served as an advisor to Palestinian negotiators. “All of the guarantees are being given to Israel, but there’s no guarantees that are given to Palestinians. The fact [is] that all of the control rests in the hands of Israel. No control is ceded to anybody else; it looks to me entirely like an Israeli plan that was rebranded as a Trump plan—not the other way around,” Buttu told Drop Site. “It was a plan that was designed to ease the pressure off of Israel and, at the same time, let Israel continue to kill Palestinians—let them try to ethnically cleanse Gaza. It exatly matches what Israel said from the beginning.”

So-Called Gaza ‘Ceasefire’ Becoming Smokescreen For Continued Israeli Genocide. Hier 2 passages uit dit artikel >> Ms. Callamard warned that: “The ceasefire risks creating a dangerous illusion that life in Gaza is returning to normal. But while Israeli authorities and forces have reduced the scale of their attacks and allowed limited amounts of humanitarian aid into Gaza, the world must not be fooled. Israel’s genocide is not over.” Amnesty observes that Israeli fighter pilots and troops have killed about 350 people in Gaza since the so-called ceasefire was trumpeted on 9 October. Moreover, Israelis are deliberately obstructing the process of rebuilding “life-sustaining infrastructure.” This cruel behavior is also illegal, directly violating “multiple orders from the International Court of Justice (ICJ) for Israel to ensure that Palestinians have access to humanitarian supplies.”

On 17 November 2025, the UN Security Council passed a resolution endorsing Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu’s so-called “peace plan” for Gaza. In a statement, the Cabinet of the Progressive International condemned it as a colonial scheme and a “calculated attempt to erase the horizon of Palestinian liberation.” This is not the first time the Trump administration has imposed a so-called “peace” on a besieged people. In Sudan, the US is brokering a “peace process” under the banner of the Quad Initiative — a mechanism launched by the US together with the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Saudi Arabia, and Egypt, all of which have supplied parties to the vicious war for their own benefit.

They just keep finding new ways to carve off more pieces of Gaza and murder more Palestinians. Haaretz has a disturbing story out about a 14 year-old Palestinian boy who was waiting for his school bus in the West Bank on a quiet street eating a cookie, when suddenly a bunch of IDF vehicles pulled up and a soldier shot him directly in the face with a teargas canister.

The ISF will be tasked with securing the borders in a way that confines Palestinians, stabilizing Gaza’s security environment by suppressing resistance, demilitarizing Gaza while leaving the Israeli regime untouched, and training the Palestinian police to control the population. Yes, the force is also mandated to “protect civilians” and assist humanitarian aid. But under US supervision, can anyone honestly expect it to restrain Israel when Israel simply refuses to comply—as we see with the current so-called “ceasefire”?

Hier de eerste 2 passages uit dit artikel >> GAZA CITY—An Israeli airstrike on Vivian Al-Har’s home killed her entire family barely two weeks before the ceasefire went into effect during Israel’s concentrated military offensive on Gaza City, the disfigured and dismembered bodies of her husband, four daughters, son, and brother-in-law were pulled out of the ruins and buried. Her older son’s body remains trapped under the rubble. “I am left alone, I am the only one remaining in the family. I have no sons, no daughters, no husband, no one,” Al-Har told Drop Site, weeping as she spoke. “There is no equipment. All the floors collapsed on my son; there were no tools and no one able to get him out. My son and my neighbor’s son are in the same house, and no one can reach them.

The number of food trucks allowed into Gaza remains far below the required minimum as outlined in the ceasefire agreement. Three Palestinian fishermen are arrested off the coast of Gaza. Israeli forces detain at least 45 Palestinians in raids across the occupied West Bank. Vice President JD Vance tells reporters on his visit to Israel that disarming Hamas is “going to take a little bit of time,” and threatens to “obliterate” the group unless it is fully cooperative. Sixteen-year-old Palestinian-American Mohammad Zaher Taysir Ibrahim details the severe overcrowding, starvation, and unsanitary conditions inside Ofer prison, where he was detained.

‘The Genocide Will Not End‘ (19 oktober 2025) Een artikel van Vijay Pashad, gepubloiceerd op Savage Minds >> Unless the Palestinian Political Leaders Are Free. Hier 2 passages uit dit artikel >> Slowly, a full picture of the devastation of Gaza by Israel is becoming clear. The Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics (PCBS) released a report around the time of the ceasefire that began to lay out the numbers: Israel’s bombardment of Gaza resulted in the total destruction of 190,115 buildings and the almost total destruction of another 330,500 housing units. The constant artillery and aerial fire over the 734 days of the genocide resulted in the wrecking of eighty-five percent of Gaza’s water and sewage system. Only one medical facility remained open in Gaza City at the time of the ceasefire, with ninety-four percent of hospitals and clinics destroyed or badly damaged. In fact, according to the PCBS, Gaza is currently unlivable. It is impossible to know the full extent of the physical and mental damage inflicted upon the Palestinian people of Gaza: the Ministry of Health has inadequate numbers for the dead and injured, and the trauma will only be known over the course of the years—if specialists are indeed able to return to the area. The United Nations reports that its entire child protection apparatus in Gaza has ‘almost collapsed’. Stunningly, the UN notes that one in five babies in Gaza is born preterm or underweight, and that in June 2025, 11,000 pregnant women faced famine conditions while 17,000 more struggled with acute malnutrition without much relief.

Hier nog een passage uit dit artikel >> On Friday Israel reportedly blew up a vehicle carrying a Palestinian family of eleven people, including seven children. The IDF gave its usual excuse for the massacre: the civilians were deemed to have crossed an invisible line into a forbidden zone which made the Israeli soldiers feel unsafe. They did this exact same thing constantly during the last “ceasefire” as well.

Along with the continued restrictions on food, fuel, and medicine, Israel is restricting the entry of heavy equipment and machinery necessary to clear tens of millions of tons of rubble, underneath which thousands of Palestinians killed in the war remain buried and missing. A United Nations Development Program representative told a press briefing this week that the amount of rubble in Gaza would stack 12 meters high in all of Central Park in New York City or be enough to build 13 giant pyramids in Egypt.

‘Israeli Officials Are Openly Saying They Plan To Resume Attacks On Gaza‘ (13 oktober 2025) Een artikel van Caitlin Johnstone >> Israel’s top officials are openly declaring that they intend to terminate the Gaza ceasefire after they get their hostages back.

This is the primary significance of implementing the agreed-upon principle of demilitarizing Gaza and neutralizing Hamas of its weapons. I have instructed the IDF to prepare for carrying out the mission.” Hamas has not agreed to any demilitarization or destruction of its tunnels. There is no way to demilitarize Gaza and neutralize Hamas of its weapons against their will without continued warfare, something Israel has demonstrated it cannot do without killing shocking numbers of civilians. (de laatste link gaat naar een Guardian artikel, helaas achter alweer een belachelijke betaalmuur, in dat artikel wordt erover gesproken dat 83% van de Palestijnen die zijn vermoord behoren tot de burgerbevolking, ofwel 17% van de vermoorden bestaat uit Hamas strijders en die van Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ)…..

‘The Trumpanyahu Administration Is Already Sabotaging The Ceasefire‘ (15 oktober 2025) Een artikel van Caitlin Johnstone, hier 2 passages uit dit artikel >> The IDF reportedly killed nine Palestinians trying to return to their homes today under the usual justification that they were traveling in some kind of unauthorized area in ways that made the troops feel threatened, blah blah. They did this all the time during the previous “ceasefire” at the beginning of the year, using the exact same excuses. Just as we speculated the other day might happen, Israel has announced that it is going to cut the aid it allows into Gaza in half and cut off fuel and gas shipments because Hamas hasn’t returned the bodies of all the dead Israeli hostages. Israel was fully aware when it signed the agreement that Hamas would not be able to deliver the bodies of all the hostages right away due to the rubble and chaos caused by the Israeli bombing campaign in Gaza.

‘Feminist Solidarity Means All Women‘ (11 oktober 2025) Een artikel van Heather Brunskell-Evans >> Confronting the Silence Around 7 October. Hier 2 passages uit dit artikel >> It seems necessary to revisit the issue of rape, not only because, on the second anniversary, social media is filled with discussions about the atrocities, including the allegation of rape, committed by Hamas. For many pro-Israel individuals, Hamas caused the “war” on 7 October and bears responsibility for the deaths of Palestinian civilians. Israel’s primary goal has been to defeat Hamas and ensure Israel’s safety, but “war is war,” and unfortunately women and children have been the innocent victims. It is necessary to address the issue of Hamas rape because it has resurfaced as a dividing issue between feminists, some of whom are pro-Israel, and some who are pro-Palestine. The feminist disagreement is not a side issue, an internecine fight between competing feminist groups, but instead has actively contributed to shaping public debate in favour of Israel, particularly through the success of pro-Israel feminists in having their views platformed and promoted by mainstream media.

‘Israeli Soldiers Torched Food, Homes, and a Critical Sewage Treatment Plant in the Wake of Ceasefire Announcement‘ (12 oktober 2025) Een artikel van Younis Tirawi and Yaniv Cogan, gepubliceerd op Drop Site News>> Soldiers called the mass arson of Gaza City their “final touches.” Hier 2 passages uit dit artikel dat ten overvloede nog eens aangeeft dat de fascistische apartheidsstaat Israël met opzet de Gazastrook onbewoonbaar heeft gemaakt >> In the immediate aftermath of Donald Trump’s announcement on Thursday that both Hamas and Israel had signed off on an agreement to stop the fighting, the Israeli military launched an arson spree, setting fire to civilian infrastructure, including the destruction of an essential sanitation plant in Gaza City. The destruction of Palestinian structures following the departure of soldiers who had used them as temporary bases has been a hallmark of Israel’s approach to Gaza for two years. In July, Israeli reporter Yuval Abraham collected testimonies from soldiers describing a myriad of arson methods. “Every Arab house we entered had olive oil […] We poured the oil on the sofas, on anything flammable in the apartment, and then we ignited [it] or threw in a smoke grenade. This was a common practice,” one of them described. Hier een foto uit dit artikel met Israëlische militairen die een huis in brand steken (en reken maar dat alle voorwerpen van waarde werden gestolen door dit psychopathisch moordende geteisem):

‘Interview: Israel Gets What It Wants and Then Ignores the Agreement‘ (11 oktober 225) Een interview met Chris Hedges (18:22 m.) >> I recently joined George Galloway on MOATS to discuss the Gaza peace plan which violates one international law after another:

‘Trump’s Sham Peace Plan‘ (11 oktober 2025) Chris Hedges >> There will be no peace in Gaza. Only the temporary absence of war. Hier 2 passages uit dit artikel >> There is no shortage of failed peace plans in occupied Palestine, all of them incorporating detailed phases and timelines, going back to the presidency of Jimmy Carter. They end the same way. Israel gets what it wants initially — in the latest case the release of the remaining Israeli hostages — while it ignores and violates every other phase until it resumes its attacks on the Palestinian people. It is a sadistic game. A merry-go-round of death. This ceasefire, like those of the past, is a commercial break. A moment when the condemned man is allowed to smoke a cigarette before being gunned down in a fusillade of bullets.

‘Thoughts On The Ceasefire News‘ (10 oktober 2025) Caitlin Johnstone >> Israel always does this. When normal people get a ceasefire agreement they think “Good, this means we can finally stop fighting and killing.” Whenever Israelis get a ceasefire agreement they go, “This means we have to hurry up and kill as many people as possible before it takes effect. >> De staatszender NOS berichtte vanmorgen (10 oktober 2025) dat Israël ook afgelopen nacht alsnog de Gazastrook bombardeerde, waarbij werd gezegd dat niet bekend is hoeveel Palestijnen er waren omgekomen (lees: vermoord). Ik neem aan dat dit bericht een foutje was, daar geen andere radiostation van Nederland, Duitsland en Groot-Brittannië dit wist te melden, daarmee bedoel ik niet dat het bericht niet waar zou zijn…..

‘Exclusive: Senior Hamas Leader Mousa Abu Marzouk on Trump’s Gaza Plan and the Future of Hamas‘ (7 oktober 2025) Jeremy Scahill op Drop Site >> Hamas says it wants to make a deal and sees Trump as the key, but will not “raise the white flag.” >> Hier een passage uit de inleiding naar het interview >> In an exclusive interview with Drop Site on Monday, Abu Marzouk said, “Stopping the war means a complete [Israeli] withdrawal from the Gaza Strip. I want Trump to fulfill his pledge and promise.” Addressing Trump, Abu Marzouk said, “Thank you for your efforts, and for your promise to stop the war and release the prisoners. We are committed to it. Just stop the war.”

‘Only Israelis Could Commit Genocide For Years And Then Demand Sympathy — And Other Notes‘ (8 oktober 2025) Een artikel van Caitlin Johnstone >> I’m sorry but it’s just plain hilarious that we’re still expected to hate Hamas after spending two years being shown exactly what it is that Hamas has been fighting.

Eén van de artikelen waarin dit werd gemeld, echter ik heb dit bericht niet in één orgaan gevonden behorend tot de reguliere westerse massamedia, ofwel deze media verzwijgen met opzet berichten die Israël totaal terecht in een kwaad daglicht stellen (al is dat bepaald geen nieuws), zelfs nadat Israël een genocide begon op basis van 7 oktober 2025, een genocide die intussen (het is nu 8 oktober 2025) al 2 jaar wordt uitgevoerd en die iedereen kan vinden in beeld en geluid op de sociale media, een genocide waarin minstens 680.000 Palestijnen zijn vermoord door die terreurstaat…..

‘The most successful military raid of this century: the October 7 Hamas assault on Israel‘ (20 november 2023 // 7 oktober 2025) >> I published this article back on November 20, 2023, approximately six weeks after the Hamas raid on Israel. On this, the second anniversary of the Hamas raid, this article has stood the test of time. Lees dit artikel mensen!! Een artikel van Scott Ritter, hier een passage uit dit artikel over de Kibboets Re’im >> The Israeli government has widely publicized what it is calling the “Re’im massacre,” citing a death toll of some 112 civilians it claims were murdered by Hamas. However, eyewitness accounts from both surviving Israeli civilians and military personnel involved in the fighting show that the vast majority of those killed died from fire from Israeli soldiers and tanks directed at buildings where the civilians were either hiding or being held hostage by Hamas fighters. It took two days for the Israeli military to recapture Re’im. It only did so after tanks fired into the civilian residences, collapsing them onto their occupants, and often setting them ablaze, causing the bodies of those inside to be consumed by fire. The Israeli government has publicized how it has had to make use of the services of forensic archeologists to identify human remains at the Kibbutz, implying that Hamas had burned the occupants’ home. But the fact is it was Israeli tanks that did the destruction and killing. (toegevoegd op 8 oktober 2025)

‘No one in power respects my grief. And no one is coming to console me‘ (5 oktober 2025) Een artikel van Jonathan Cook >> Politicians, the police and the media want millions of us to imagine we are alone in grieving the slaughter of Gaza’s children – and that our grief is shameful. They need us to succumb to their lies. Hier nog 2 passages uit dit artikel >> Members of the Jewish community have been grieving for three days now over the killing of two innocent people in last week’s attack on a Manchester synagogue. Politicians and the media keep telling us how important it is to respect their grief. I and millions of other Britons, some of them Jews, have been grieving for much longer – over the killing of tens of children in Gaza not on one day last week but on every single day, without break, for two years. And yet no politicians or media seem to think it important to respect my grief. (en dat eigenlijk al vanaf 1948 en zelfs al van daarvoor, al is de genocide die Israël nu uitvoert een enorme intensivering van de massamoord op Palestijnen en hun kinderen…..)

‘Israel Droned Flotilla Activists And Then Abused Greta Thunberg‘ (5 oktober 2025) Een artikel van Caitlin Jonstone >> If you’ll launch drone attacks on activists trying to bring aid to starving civilians, there’s nothing you won’t do. Hier 2 passages uit het artikel >> Who would have imagined five years ago when we were seeing Greta Thunberg amplified by every mainstream western liberal institution that we would one day hear reports that she has been captured and tormented by the Israeli military for trying to bring formula to starving babies? ‘They dragged little Greta [Thunberg] by her hair before our eyes, beat her, and forced her to kiss the Israeli flag. They did everything imaginable to her, as a warning to others,’ the Turkish activist Ersin Çelik, a participant in the Sumud flotilla, told Anadolu news agency.

‘Manchester: The Pornography of Convenient Terror‘ (3 oktober 2025) Eeen artikel geschreven door Karim en gepubliceerd op BettBeat Media >> In the theater of Empire, even authentic tragedies become scripted performances, and even genuine grief becomes political capital. Hier 2 passages uit dit artikel >> The machinery of Empire requires perfect timing. As Israeli bombs fell on Gaza, erasing 45 lives in a single night, the world’s attention was conveniently redirected to Manchester. A man named Jihad Al-Shami—a name so perfectly crafted for Western consumption it borders on parody—attacked worshippers at the Heaton Park Hebrew congregation on Yom Kippur, killing two and injuring three before being shot by police. Within minutes, the narrative crystallized with the efficiency of a well-rehearsed production. Anti-Semitic terror. Jews under siege. Israel vindicated. The suspect wore a fake suicide vest—theatrical prop rather than weapon—ensuring maximum visual impact. His name, translating roughly as “Holy War the Syrian,” could hardly have been more convenient if crafted by Hollywood screenwriters for English-speaking audiences conditioned by decades of War on Terror propaganda.

‘Who’s really encouraging attacks like the one on a synagogue? Look to our leaders‘ (3 oktober 2025) Een artikel van jonathan Cook >> The attack in Manchester is evidence not of a rising tide of antisemitism but of something else entirely: a growing and dangerous political illiteracy being cultivated in our societies. Hier 2 passages uit het artikel >> Israel very much wants such political illiteracy – and has been actively cultivating it for decades. Israel does so by falsely describing itself, and legislating itself, as a state that supposedly represents every Jew in the world – even those Jews who despise the ethnic supremacist ideology of Zionism, which has rationalised for so long the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians, apartheid rule over Palestinians, and now the genocide of Palestinians. This political illiteracy exists because it has been nurtured by Jewish public figures in Britain like Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis, who constantly identifies the Jewish community with Israel and its military; who lauds the Israeli military’s crimes against Palestinians, even its slaughter of children; and demands that protests in solidarity with Palestinians be outlawed to protect Israel.

‘On The Manchester Synagogue Attack‘ (3 oktober 2025) Een artikel van Caitlin Johnstone >> I wish the attack on the Manchester synagogue had never happened. I also feel weird about even talking about it while dozens of Palestinians are killed today whose individual names I’ll never know and whose individual deaths I’ll never see decried in western media headlines. Last I heard it is unknown whether the synagogue attacker was motivated by Israel’s actions in Gaza, but if he was I’d say that’s one more reason to oppose Israel’s actions in Gaza. If you are too racist or apathetic to oppose a genocide on principle, then you should oppose it because it is fomenting violent extremism which could end up hurting people who look like you and live where you live

‘Billionaire takeover of Gaza‘ (2 oktober 2025) Een artikel van Thomas Karat >> Trump’s Riviera Plan, Blair’s GITA & Ellison’s Money. Hier de eerste passage uit dit artikel >> September 2025 marked a watershed in the world’s response to Israel’s devastating assault on Gaza. As the war dragged into its second year, former U.S. president Donald Trump unveiled a 21‑point plan ostensibly designed to end the fighting and set up a Gaza International Transitional Authority (GITA). Leaked drafts showed the authority would be chaired by Tony Blair and staffed mainly by international businesspeople and investors with minimal Palestinian representation. In parallel, investigations revealed that tech magnate Larry Ellison had become the single largest donor to the Tony Blair Institute (TBI), pledging more than £257 million and effectively underwriting the institute’s expansion newstatesman.com. Rumours circulated that Sigrid Kaag, the UN’s Senior Humanitarian and Reconstruction Coordinator for Gaza, had been offered a GITA board seat. These claims, combined with the plan’s apparent alignment with Israeli and U.S. interests, raised questions about whether a privately‑funded governance architecture was being constructed to entrench Israeli control over Gaza.

‘Free, Free Palestine!‘ (27 september 2025) Feminism, Zionism, and the Death of Truth. Een artikel van Heather Brunskell-Evans, gepubliceerd op Savage Minds. Hier 2 passages uit dit artikel >> First, the letter claims that Hamas carried out “the murder, torture, rape, and kidnapping of over 1,500 people.” Regarding the figures, although Hamas was undoubtedly responsible for many deaths, the army was also responsible, as pictures of hundreds of burnt cars and shelled homes by aerial bombardment demonstrate. The army had invoked the Hannibal directive which means that the exact number killed by Hamas, rather than Israel, remains unclear. I will return to the rape claim shortly. Second, the letter describes the attack as unprovoked, creating the illusion that the conflict with the Palestinians began on 7 October. This claim masks the historical context and political realities. Israel is not a liberal democracy as we typically understand it, as we are constantly told. The state of Israel was established in 1948 as an ethno-nationalist state and has been maintained through violence and acts of terrorism against Palestinians—land theft and forced displacement, apartheid policies, sieges, and the mass incarceration of Palestinians, including children, without trial. Erasing the historical context of the 75-year violation of Palestinian human rights also obscures how the Palestinians, abandoned by the international community, have attempted unsuccessfully to break free from oppression and state-sanctioned violence, to pursue self-determination and statehood. Ook wordt aandacht besteed aan de opzettelijke femicide door het IDF op Palestijnse vrouwen en meisjes en de hypocrisie van westerse feministen die geloof blijven hechten aan de meermaals doorgeprikte leugen dat Hamas strijders op 23 oktober 2025 joodse vrouwen en meisjes zouden hebben verkracht, terwijl ze geen oog hebben voor de meermaals bewezen opzettelijke moorden, verkrachtingen en martelingen door het Israëlische leger op Palestijnse vrouwen en meisjes….

‘How the media tears up its own rulebook to hide Israel’s atrocities‘ (29 september 2025) Een artikel van Jonathan Cook, waarin hij o.a. spreekt over de arrestatie van George Galloway >> The news cycle has rules every rookie journalist understands. When the media choose to break them, you can be sure it is for entirely non-journalistic reasons. Hier 2 passages uit het artikel >> But I want to highlight a less noticed element to the media’s perverse coverage of Israel. And that is the regular skewing of the traditional news cycle. Too often the media simply skip the breaking stage of a news story and head straight to the follow-up. By now, you might be able to guess why. Because a breaking story presents only the essential facts, and those facts cannot disguise the nature of Israel’s crimes.

‘The World Doesn’t Hate Jews, The World Hates Israel (28 september 2025) Een artikel van Caitlin Johnstone, hier 2 passages >> They’re just talking about people who oppose Israel for perpetrating a live-streamed holocaust. People don’t hate Israel because it’s full of Jewish people, they hate Israel because of the things Israel does. It is absolutely mind-boggling that to this day we’re seeing a hypermilitaristic apartheid ethnonationalist state starving and massacring civilians because of their ethnicity, bombing hospitals, assassinating journalists and medical professionals, murdering humanitarian workers, starting wars, invading neighboring countries, manipulating foreign governments, threatening activists, and actively working to crush free speech throughout the western world, all with the backing of the most powerful empire in history — and we’ve still got western institutions trying to convince us that people hate Israel because of religious prejudice.
