Palestinians call them “death traps.”
Israel is shooting so many Palestinians at U.S.-run aid sites, they’re now seen as massacre zones. People still go — because it’s the only way to get food. mondoweiss.net/2025/06/pale...

The US has bombed Yemen's Hodeidah port & airport 13 times today.

Meanwhile, Israel has killed more than 92 Palestinians in Gaza in the past 48 hours.

Gaza isn’t just a genocide—it’s a preview.

What Israel is doing with U.S. weapons in Palestine is a blueprint for a future of climate apartheid: brutal, racialized, and profitable. mondoweiss.net/2024/11/pale...
Palestine against an eco-apartheid world
In coming years, eco-apartheid will become more prominent worldwide as colonial violence is used to maintain and safeguard Western interests and profits. We are seeing this future in Gaza today.

Israel has blocked the entry of all humanitarian aid into Gaza, where nearly half the population are children.

“It means babies, children are going to bed hungry. Every day without these basic supplies, Gaza inches closer towards very, very deep hunger.”

Violent Israeli settlers, backed by the Israeli military, are attacking Palestinian Bedouins and stealing their homes, tractors, water supplies, and food in an attempt to force them off their own land and into homelessness.

This is ethnic cleansing.

Israel claims Bedouins don’t have hometowns and they can just move. But these people don’t want to leave their land.
