ANALYSIS: When Palestinians protest Hamas, it’s not a rejection of resistance—it’s a cry for certainty amid chaos. Israel frames it as surrender to justify genocide. But survival under occupation is not submission.
Israel has begun the final stage of its genocide. Palestinians are being forced to choose between death or deportation. What we are witnessing dwarfs all the historical assaults on Palestinians.
Palestinians refugee camps are known for producing resistance fighters and footballers. But Israel's ongoing onslaught in Gaza and the West Bank is erasing every aspect of Palestinian life, including sports.
The Trump administration's extraordinary and unprecedented move to effectively expel South African Ambassador Ebrahim Rasool was done for one reason: South Africa had the audacity to hold Israel accountable for the Gaza genocide.
A new UN report found that Israel carried out “genocidal acts” by deliberately targeting fertility facilities with the intention of preventing births among Palestinians in Gaza. The report also detailed systematic sexual abuse against Palestinians.
Palestinians in Gaza's border areas have continued to be killed and injured on a daily basis since the ceasefire began in mid-January. A resident of Shuja'iyya tells Mondoweiss, "The war has not stopped, quite the opposite. The war intensified."
Israel has suspended the entry of humanitarian aid into Gaza and resumed targeting Palestinian civilians, bringing the ceasefire with Hamas the closest it has even been to collapse.
There is a well-established pattern of Israeli forces targeting Palestinian journalists. We must break this cycle of impunity by transparently investigating Israel’s crimes.
Joseph Czuba, 73, was convicted on Friday for the murder of a 6-year-old Palestinian American boy, Wadea Al-Fayoume, in October 2023. Czuba, who was the boy's landlord, faces life in prison after a jury found him guilty of committing a hate crime.
As the first phase of the Gaza ceasefire comes to an end it is clear the Trump White House has no substantive policy for the region. Israel is filling that vacuum with perpetual war.
Donald Trump posted an AI-generated video to social media showing him and Benjamin Netanyahu sunbathing together in Gaza as Elon Musk eats hummus outside a resort called "TRUMP GAZA."
Following a handover ceremony in Gaza for Israeli captives, during which one Israeli soldier kissed the heads of two Hamas fighters, an outraged Netanyahu suspended the release of hundreds of Palestinian prisoners.
The criminal charges laid against Montreal-based author, activist, and Mondoweiss contributor Yves Engler for responding to a pro-Israel influencer’s social media posts should concern anyone who values freedom of expression and the rule of law.
Israel wants to drag out the first phase of the Gaza ceasefire and eventually return to war, while Hamas wants to begin reconstruction as part of a second phase. This current impasse is bringing the fragile ceasefire to a dangerous crossroads.
Israel follows its usual playbook—violating the ceasefire, blaming Hamas, and securing U.S. backing to escalate more war crimes, genocide, and ethnic cleansing.
Trump’s call to ethnically cleanse Gaza is an affirmation of an ascendant global movement, with Israel in the vanguard, seeking to overturn long-standing international norms. Palestinian ties to the land stand in direct resistance to this project.
Lost in the uproar over Donald Trump’s Gaza comments was another bombshell: the White House will soon announce its position on annexation of the West Bank. Signs indicate it will fully support expanding Israeli control over the occupied territory.
