The Disgrace of Deliberate Starvation
To my mind, this is an important example of some honest, journalistic commentary that continues to survive in a society that continues, in the 21st Century, to behave as did those Polish and German citizens who denied knowledge of the Nazi Holocaust. — Terry Bell By Gideon Levy, July 24, 2025 Israel’s plan for the […]
Hebron hell: ‘voluntary’ ethnic cleansing
July 11, 2025
By Gideon Levy & photographer Alex Levac (Haaretz, 11/07/2025) The market square is empty, as the iconic song about another Old City – the one in Jerusalem – goes. Hebron’s main marketplace has been almost completely deserted for years. Anyone who wants to understand why, need only gaze upward: Hanging from the metal grilles Palestinians […]

Planetary sacrifice for a Messiah?
June 20, 2025

Another example of: they cannot say they didn’t know If you’re shocked by Israelis beating an Arab bus driver, How are you not stunned by genocide? That was the question Gideon Levy asked Israelis in Haaretz on June 1 after Beitar Jerusalem soccer fans (picture below) brutally assaulted Palestinian bus drivers. Here is his column: […]
The aid debacle in Gaza
May 27, 2025
ISRAEL’S MAMMOTH SICK JOKE This week saw the horrible unravelling in Gaza of a grotesque public relations stunt that might better — if inadequately — have been described as a mammoth sick joke. It was in the chaos prompted by the “intervention” of the hastily founded and clearly politically motivated Gaza Humanitarian Foundation and its […]
