Israel is becoming increasingly isolated on the world stage as the death count in Gaza nears 66,000 Palestinians.
The Israeli military has destroyed block after block of Gaza City as part of a new ground offensive in what was once the territory's largest urban center. Though much of the city is still standing, satellite images show Israeli forces are flattening whole areas. nyti.ms/3WbpxZw

After Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu's disastrous visit to NYC and UNGA where several countries finally recognized the State of Palestine infuriating the lunatic Likudnik, he brayed: "A Palestinian state will not be established west of the Jordan!" Netanyahu boasted that under his leadership, Israel "doubled Jewish settlement in Judea and Samaria and we will continue on this course." (The Times of Israel, 21 Sep 2025).
Netanyahu's bullying attempts at the PMs of Canada, the UK, France, and Australia failed, as these leaders have gained experience dealing with another bully, ICC-indicted war criminal Vladimir Putin. Moreover, these leaders and their citizens not only saw through Netanyahu's veneer of using the hostage situation as a pretext for ethnically cleansing Gaza, but they also hear the words of Israeli Finance Bezalel Smotrich who routinely calls for the forced removal of Palestinians from Gaza to finally realize a homogenous Jewish state: uploads.disquscdn.com
Netanyahu's pogrom against the Palestinians has given NYC Democratic mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani (33) a significant boost. While AIPAC and Israel may conquer the Gaza Strip, they will probably lose NYC and all of the patronage positions, lucrative contracts, and CUNY academic appointments that go along with City Hall. Plus Mayor Mamdani will have an international platform as Mayor and will have access to foreign leaders and dignitaries when they visit UNGA: www.dataforprogress.org
Microsoft announces it has barred the Israeli military from using the company's services to spy on millions of Palestinian civilian phone calls made each day in Gaza and the occupied West Bank and stored in Microsoft's vast Azure cloud computing platform: www.democracynow.org
