Through these Machiavellian manoeuvres, Israel is granted total impunity to persecute the Palestinians unimpeded.

This tactic has been working smoothly for decades, intimidating would-be critics of Israel. Has Israel’s full-scale genocide finally broken the spell?

On the other hand, we are told anyone holding Israel to account is an antisemite, because they don’t spend the same energy on holding North Korea to account.

It’s bizarre how people leap to all kinds of weird assumptions on social media. Rather than remembering how much we don‘t actually know.

It has been fascinating to see how the different outlets have framed it and how the framing has shifted. From ‘Israel–Hamas war’ to ‘Israel–Gaza war’ to ‘War on Gaza’ (used by AJ).
