The new exodus of Israelis: Decolonizing Palestine beyond territory

GOA — Zionism required the creation of what its founders called the “New Jew” - a radical reengineering of Jewish identity severed from centuries of ethical, diasporic, and humanist traditions.

The State Department confirmed that Israel will receive 30 Apache attack helicopters and other U.S.-made military vehicles, despite the fact that these same systems have been repeatedly used against Palestinians in the occupied West Bank and Gaza Strip.

Israel’s admission of Gaza death toll shatters its own denial

TEHRAN — A quiet admission from a senior Israeli military official has opened a door Israel has tried to keep shut for two years. By acknowledging that around 71,000 people have been killed in Gaza, the official effectively confirmed what the Gaza Health Ministry has been reporting since the start of the war.
