Israeli Terror, Death, and Ethnic Cleansing Intensify in Gaza and the West Bank
At least 36,801 people have been killed and 83,680 wounded in Israel's ongoing massacre in Gaza since October 7. An estimated 10,000 more dead lie beneath the rubble of Israeli bombs. During these past eight months, people in Gaza have been driven from their homes, seeking but not finding shelter. A million peoplewere driven into Rafah, on the very southern edge of Gaza. Now Rafah is being bombed and overrun by Israeli tanks and troops.
Two Israeli Massacres in Nuseirat in Three Days—100s Dead, 100s More Injured“We Stand with Israel” = We Stand for Genocide | revcom.us
On the night of June 6, some six thousand Palestinian refugees—many of them children—were sleeping in classrooms of a UN school in the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza. Many had fled from Nuseirat to Rafah in May, driven by Israeli threats and bombs to what Israel claimed was a safe place. Then, as Israeli tanks, bombs, and threats drove a million people back out of Rafah, people sought shelter in the wreckage of the places they had been driven out of earlier, including Nuseirat.
Gaza Update: Israel Escalates Death from North to SouthSeizes a Hospital, Blows Up a University, to Build a Genocidal “Corridor” | revcom.us
As I open the Sunday New York Times this week, Israel’s genocide in Gaza is absent from the front page of the print edition. Same thing on Saturday. But while Israel’s genocide in Gaza is being buried, distorted, and lied about by the “mass media” (programming the masses in service of U.S. capitalism-imperialism), the REALITY is that this genocide is not only getting worse—it is "on track" to get even MORE horrific.
The “Anti-Semitism Awareness Act”—Banning Opposition to Zionism, Crushing Academic Freedom | revcom.us
On May 1, the House of Representatives overwhelmingly passed (320 for, 91 against) the so-called “Anti-Semitism Awareness Act” (the “AAA”). If passed by the Senate, this will mark a major leap in state censorship of criticism of Israel and will set a dangerous precedent more generally. This bill—and the whole repressive move against students and intellectuals of which this is a part—must be opposed and defeated.
Breaking Open Debate About Palestine and Hamas at a Community Event
Breaking Open Debate About Palestine and Hamas at a Community Event Letter from a reader in the Northwest Editors’ note: We found this letter interesting and insightful and we encourage our readers to write in with your experiences in the struggle to stop the genocide in Palestine I went to a meeting of a pro-Palestinian group in my town, not knowing what to expect. There was to be a presentation by a Palestinian guy from another city.
Tens of Thousands of Israeli “Settlers” Are Genocidal Terrorists–But Biden Punished Only 4 of Them with “Sanctions”…Here’s Why | revcom.us
On February 1, Biden signed an Executive Order that imposes “sanctions” (punishment) on four Israeli “settlers.” I’ll get to what those “sanctions” mean shortly, but in a word, they are bullshit. They do nothing to stop the bombs and tanks, the siege cutting off food and water; the genocidal slaughter going on in Gaza. And at least for now, they leave those responsible for a wave of Israeli terror and death in the West Bank region of Palestine off the hook.
Cheers to the Jewish Voice for Peace Rabbinical Council for their Open Letter, “Sorrow and fury: a letter from American rabbis to President Biden.”
On January 26, the day before International Holocaust Remembrance Day, the Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP) Rabbinical Council ran a full-page ad in newspapers including the New York Times and the Washington Post. It is an open letter to President Biden.
Israel’s Genocidal War Against Gaza: What’s Happening, Why, Where This May Go… and What YOU Need to Do About It
Americans are being inundated with news coverage of Israelis killed, wounded, or taken hostage in the October 7 raid on Israel by Hamas (see previous coverage at revcom.us.). The media is putting special emphasis on dead and missing Americans, as if American lives are more important than anyone else’s. To be clear, Hamas’s wanton murders of non-combatants, including children, were war crimes and cannot in any way be upheld.
What Is Hamas? | revcom.us
Hamas is the reactionary Islamist organization that controls the Gaza Strip region of Palestine. Hamas launched a brutal multi-pronged attack on Israel on October 7 that took hundreds of lives, most of whom were intentionally targeted noncombatants, and seized hostages. In response, Israel has launched an all-out air attack against Gaza, killing, one week after the Hamas attack, nearly 2,000 people, including almost 600 children.

Race Is Real, But It’s Not Genetic
A friend of mine with Central American, Southern European and West African ancestry is lactose intolerant. Drinking milk products upsets her stomach, and so she avoids them. About a decade ago, because of her low dairy intake, she feared that she might not be getting enough calcium, so she asked her doctor for a bone density test. He responded that she didn’t need one because “blacks do not get osteoporosis.” My friend is not alone.

Racism, Not Race
Main Reviews Contents Excerpt Links Awards The science on race is clear. Common categories like “Black,” “white,” and “Asian” do not represent genetic differences among groups. But if race is a pernicious fiction according to natural science, it is all too significant in the day-to-day lives of racialized people across the globe. Inequities in health, wealth, and an array of other life outcomes cannot be explained without referring to “race”—but their true source is racism.
