It is engaging in a war of annihilation of Palestinians.” ~Mariam Barghouti

Analysis: "The Ruse of the Israel-Palestine Peace Process" Why does the Israel-Palestine so-called "peace process" repeatedly fail? The decades-old lie crafted by Israel that there's an equal unwillingness to compromise among both camps is in fact Israel's "greatest diplomatic triumph". "For Israel, diplomacy has not failed. It functions precisely as intended."

Christian Zionist ICJ judge, Julia Sebutinde says she is "standing with the Lord " in the genocide case brought by South Africa against Israel. She says she is under a religious duty to stand with Israel in the case. Her position breaches the ICJ's duty of impartiality. The ICJ can use special reasons to prevent a judge from sitting in a particular case. This ought to be one such special reason.

Smotrich: "The Palestinian state is being erased from the table, not with slogans but with actions." "Every settlement, every neighbourhood, every housing unit is another nail in the coffin of this dangerous idea." "The time has come to forever put the idea of dividing the land on the back burner & ensure that.. the hypocritical leaders in Europe will have nothing to recognise.”

Report: £2bn UK contract with Elbit, Israel's largest arms manufacturer, to train 60,000 British soldiers a year." Elbit provides ~85% of Israel’s drones & land-based military equipment & supplies its genocide. Such a major contract would make Israel a strategic partner of Britain's Ministry of Defence.

Interview: A million Israelis protest to end the "war". A minority of them has been against the genocide from the beginning. But most blame Netanyahu for putting his political survival ahead of the hostages. "Most Israelis are not speaking directly on the suffering in Gaza, on the killings, on the children, on the starvation, but instead focus on the survival of the hostages held in Gaza." ~Oren Ziv, +972 Magazine
