GAZA NEWS, SNAPSHOTS, & HEADLINES: IDF opens inquiry into possible war crimes after deaths near Gaza aid sites The Israeli military claims to have launched an investigation* into possible war crimes following growing evidence that troops have deliberately fired at Palestinian civilians gathering to r...

Posted by: John Phoenix War crimes Between 7 October 2023 and 15 August 2024, the Zionist murder squads – the Israeli armed forces (IDF) – have slaughtered 40,634 Palestinians, of whom 40,005 were in Gaza.  11,445 of the victims (30%) were women, and 16,251 children. 92,000 have been injured, some of them very badly.  10,000 lie under the rubble, presumed dead (4,900 women and children). The world-leading and highly prestigious medical journal, The Lancet, applying a conservative estimate of four indirect deaths for every direct death, has reported that it is not implausible to estimate that up to 186,000, or even more, deaths could be attributable to the current conflict in Gaza. This amounts to over 8% of Gaza’s population that stood at 2.3 million before...

Posted by: John Phoenix “The state is a product and a manifestation of the irreconcilability of class antagonisms. The state arises where, when and insofar as class antagonism objectively cannot be reconciled. And, conversely, the existence of the state proves that the class antagonisms are irreconcilable” (V.I. Lenin, The State and Revolution), Workers within the state machinery, particularly schools, are becoming increasingly aware of the British state’s growing anxiety over pro-Palestine (specifically pro-Palestinian Resistance) sentiments within the UK. The state has ramped up its vigilance regarding such sentiments, culminating in it making updates and adjustments to the PREVENT strategy guidelines in February/March 2024.  The most fundamental changes, are ...

Posted by: John Phoenix By Scott Ritter, reproduced with thanks Yahya Sinwar was killed fighting Israeli soldiers in the ruins of Gaza. His death will serve as an inspiration for Palestinians for years to come. If there is to be a free and independent Palestine, it will be because of the sacrifice made by Yahya Sinwar in the cause of its creation. He is the true father of Palestine. He was a child of the camps, born into captivity in the Gazan Khan Younis refugee camp, the son of Palestinian citizens of Majdal ‘Asqalan (present-day Ashkelon) who were forcibly driven from their homes by Israeli forces in 1948 in what is referred to as the Nakba, or catastrophe. He was one of the first to join Hamas when it broke away from the Palestinian branch of the Muslim Brotherhood...

Posted by: John Phoenix The ceasefire in Gaza marks a humiliating defeat of both the Zionist regime as well as its US and British imperialist masters. The Palestinian people’s steadfast refusal to be expelled from their land and allow the Israelis to carry out their much desired second Nakba must act as an inspiration to those of us in the imperial core nations. For over 15 months the Zionist regime relentlessly bombarded the people of Gaza, destroyed homes and killed hundreds of thousands. For all the horrors that have been inflicted upon them, the people of Gaza continued to resist the Zionist forces and, even though the latter had the full backing of US and British imperialism, the Israeli regime could not beat the resistance. The Israeli regime failed in their stated aims o...

This group held a vigil at Harvard University to commemorate the over 50,000 Palestinian children killed or wounded in Gaza during 600 days of Israeli bombs, bullets, and blockades. By Brett Wilkins, Reposted from Antiwar.blog, May 28, 2025 Community members concluded a 24-hour vigil at Harvard University on Wednesday during which the names of almost 12,000 children slain in Gaza by Israeli forces were read aloud, signifying only a partial list of child casualties documented by the United Nations C...

Posted by: John Phoenix Gaza's Innocent Martyrs ([graphic]) Hind pleaded for help for hours. Youssef was killed while watching cartoons. Yaqeen wanted to be a YouTube star – and died in a bombing. Behind the staggering death toll of 17,000 children in Gaza are faces, names, and dreams that will never be realized. By Sheren Falah Saab, Reposted from Haaretz, June 26, 2025 “Gaza is becoming a graveyard for children,” said UN Secretary-General António Guterres as early as November 6, 2023. His statement was harshly criticized by Israel and dismissed as exaggerated by much of the Israeli public and media. In the 21 months since, the number of casualties in Gaza has largely remained on the margins of Israeli media coverage, including the children killed in the war....

Posted by: John Phoenix A charity kitchen in Jabaliya in the northern Gaza Strip on May 17, 2025 (Bashar Taleb/AFP) Opinion: Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu has no moral compass – he merely wishes to keep up appearances for his patrons in the West. The following was Haaretz’s lead editorial on May 20, 2025, as published in the Hebrew and English newspapers in Israel. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s reluctant decision to renew humanitarian aid going into Gaza forced him and his coalition members to launch a public relations offensive aimed at appeasing their electorate – the same voters who had been promised collective punishment on the Palestinians in the form of starvation. After telling his ministers that “there’s a global campaign about so-cal...
