  • Overcoming the US Veto

    “For the sixth time, the US has vetoed a ceasefire in the Gaza genocide, underscoring once again the grave threat to the world posed by the US-Israel axis. The violent, racist, and lawless rampage of the axis is leaving a trail of murder and destruction across Western Asia and the wider world, corrupting governments and trampling human rights across the West, and shredding international law and institutions in its wake. The world must get off its knees, unite, and stop this horror — while they still can.”


  • Equating Jews and Israel Assessed as a “Propaganda Technique”

    “Equating Israel with all Jews and Israel’s future with theirs is an effort to sanctify Israel and shield it from criticism by brandishing the charge of antisemitism,” Norman Solomon wrote in The Guardian this week.

  • Irish Nobel Laureate Calls on Governments to Invoke Genocide Convention to Hault Israeli Attack

  • In “Grotesque Hoax” Biden Admin Not Just “Green Lighting” Israeli Ethnic Cleansing — “It’s Bankrolling It”
