Ed covered the ruling by the United Nations International Court of Justice regarding a potential “genocide” in Gaza yesterday, but the ICJ’s strange conclusion has a few more odd elements to it that are worth examining. The court was handling a case brought by South Africa, a nation that somehow supports Hamas, which accuses Israel […]
One project that’s been undertaken by the IDF in Gaza hasn’t received as much media attention as the larger military conflict, at least until now. Starting back in November, construction crews began clearing a one-kilometer-wide band of land along the border of the Gaza Strip. Bulldozers and backhoes cleared buildings, roadways, and agricultural areas. Hamas […]
Secretary of State Antony Blinken is taking a break from his globetrotting diplomacy tour this week to hang out in Davos at the World Economic Forum and hobnob with the private jet set who want the rest of us to live in pods and eat bugs. While there, he sat down for an interview with […]

Yesterday, Secretary of State Antony Blinken flew to Turkey to begin a series of meetings intended to prevent further escalation of the current conflicts in the Middle East. (And what could possibly go wrong if we have Winkin’ Tony Blinken on the job, right?) Meanwhile, officials in Israel seem to be sensing that Joe Biden’s […]
I’ve covered a couple of these stories in the past few weeks. Chen Goldstein-Almog became a hostage after Hamas murdered her husband and eldest daughter in front of her. She and her surviving children were not physically harmed but she did meet with other hostages including women who’d been sexually abused. Earlier this week I […]
