Israel’s latest attacks on Gaza City have displaced over 50,000 Palestinians and killed at least 42 people in a single day, including 14 members of one family — three generations wiped out in one airstrike. Families like that of Abu Tarek Habboub, forced to walk south with 10 children and no shelter, food, or money, are living proof that Israel’s war is nothing less than terrorism.
At the same time, Israeli forces in the West Bank rounded up more than 1,500 Palestinians in Tulkarem, including children, subjecting them to curfews, humiliation, and terror. Prime Minister Netanyahu has doubled down, approving thousands of new illegal settlements while boasting that there will “never be a Palestinian state.”
The United States is not an innocent bystander. Washington bankrolls Israel’s military, shields it diplomatically, and allows U.S. corporate media to sanitize war crimes with euphemisms like “strikes” and “operations.” Reporters rarely demand access to Gaza or the West Bank, instead echoing official propaganda while Palestinians are starved, bombed, and erased from their land.
Even U.S. Senators Van Hollen and Merkley admit Israel is committing ethnic cleansing, and that America is complicit. Unless the U.S. ends its military and political support, it will drag itself — and the world — into a wider war born of impunity and genocide.
