Classified intelligence from May reveals Israel believed it had killed some 8,900 militants in its attacks on Gaza, indicating a proportion of civilian slaughter with few parallels in modern warfare, a joint investigation finds.
The 2024 Democratic Party ignored the antiwar progressives who were rightfully calling out Israel's ethnic cleansing last year. At least 60 universities and colleges nationwide held vigils and protests. At the 2024 DNC Convention in Chicago, no pro-Palestinian or antiwar Samaritans were allowed to speak. Come 5 Nov 2024 those antiwar progressives stayed home (6,265,888).
The hardworking American taxpayer has given Israel more aid than any other nation since World War II, granting it more than $260 billion. Israelis enjoy a top ten universal healthcare network and a social security system rated higher than America's. Can an American say the same?

The delay, he said, "cost lives. Without the formal famine label, there was less pressure for ceasefires, aid access, and accountability. Truth was spoken, but action was stalled.
"For us on the ground, it's a damning confirmation, not breaking news. While institutions debated wording, people in Gaza kept dying of hunger," he added.
