    A Palestinian's Year in Review: Genocide in Gaza

    While Israel's desperate attempt to control the global narrative on the Gaza genocide largely failed, the ethnic cleansing continues.

    Ramzy Baroud
    Dec 30, 2024

    The story of the Israeli war on Gaza can be epitomized in the story of the Israeli war on Beit Lahia, a small Palestinian town in the northern part of the Strip.

    When Israel launched its ground operations in Gaza, Beit Lahia was already largely destroyed due to many days of relentless Israeli bombardment which killed thousands.

    Outcry After Biden Admin Pushed for Retraction of Northern Gaza Famine Report

    "It sure looks like USAID is allowing political considerations—the Biden administration's worry about funding Israel's starvation strategy—to interfere," said one human rights expert.

    Julia Conley
    Dec 27, 2024

    Veteran human rights expert Kenneth Roth said Thursday that the withdrawal of a report on imminent famine in northern Gaza negates "the whole point" of the office that produced the analysis: "to have a group of experts make assessments about imminent famine that are untainted by political considerations."

    The decision by the Famine Early Warning Systems Network (FEWS NET) to retract its December 23 alert on the rapidly spiraling starvation crisis in the northern part of the besieged enclave came after the U.S. ambassador to Israel, Jack Lew, publicly criticized the report.

    As US Celebrates Thanksgiving, Israel-Imposed Starvation and Suffering in Gaza Intensifies

    "There is no military necessity or justification under international law that permits the prevention of basic necessities from reaching a civilian population."

    Julia Conley
    Nov 27, 2024

    As millions prepared to celebrate Thanksgiving in the United States on Wednesday, human rights advocates provided dispatches from nearly 6,000 miles away in Gaza, where the Biden administration has continued to provide political and military support for Israel's onslaught despite public disapproval for the war among Americans.

    Palestinians in Gaza are now facing their second winter amid Israel's bombardment and near-total blockade on humanitarian aid, which began in October 2023.
