Een jaar geleden was ik getuige van de Israëlische moord op de 20-jarige student Aysar Safi nabij vluchtelingenkamp Jalazoun en de Israelische nederzetting Beit El. Een jaar later vroeg ik Aysars ouders hoe het met hun gaat. Dit is hun verhaal: archive.is/s6sX2

Gisteren en vandaag is een grote vredesconferentie in Jeruzalem, de grootste sinds de aanslagen van '7 oktober'. Elena Kaminka verloor haar zoon op die dag, ondanks haar verlies ze is nog steeds vredesactivist. Ik schreef er een stuk over in #Trouw:

A graphic video shows the moment that Israeli troops fired on aid workers in clearly marked vehicles in Gaza, killing 15 people. The footage contradicts Israel’s version of events in an episode that has drawn international scrutiny. Read witness accounts: www.nytimes.com/2025/04/06/w...

NEW: Trump’s USAID cuts hamper US response to the earthquake in Myanmar. Employees in DC who were set to move to Asia earlier were told Friday they’ll be fired. Few are left to plan transport and payments. China and Russia send teams. Our @nytimes.com story: www.nytimes.com/2025/03/30/w...
Trump’s U.S.A.I.D. Cuts Hobble Earthquake Response in Myanmar
While China, Russia and other nations have rushed emergency response teams to the devastated country, the U.S., once a leader in foreign aid, has been slow to act.

Een pieppieppiepklein sprankje hoop; de Palestijn Aziz Abu Sarah en de Israëli Maoz Inon bereiden gezamenlijk een vredesconferentie voor in Jeruzalem op 8 en 9 mei. Steun deze en andere mensen die zich, regelmatig met gevaar voor eigen leven, inzetten voor vrede aldaar.

@michielservaes.bsky.social beste Michiel, ik heb ooit twee jaar in de #Gazastrook gewoond. Het deed me ontzettend veel goed jouw ervaringen te zien op Bnnvara. Heel fijn dat je dit hebt gedaan.

Ik sprak de Israëlische historicus Adam Raz, hij voorziet een gure, kille toekomst voor de staat Israël. Een interview in @trouw.nl: www.trouw.nl/buitenland/i...
‘Israël, mijn land, wordt geleidelijk omgevormd in een etnocratie met nucleaire wapens’
Zelfs veel linkse Israëliërs willen weinig weten van Palestijns leed en wentelen zich in slachtofferschap, zegt de Israëlische historicus Adam Raz. ‘Op de crèche kreeg ik de Holocaust als ontbijt.’

"From sabotaging Oslo to funneling Qatari cash into Gaza, Bibi has spent his career bolstering Hamas to help perpetuate the conflict.

Even after Oct. 7, argues historian Adam Raz, he's still advancing the same strategy."

Please, if you are able, support Independent bookshops.

They are the literary & social hubs of our high streets and communities.

Without their continued support, we simply wouldn't be around to publish .

Thank you.
