Palestinian Territory – An unprecedented humanitarian catastrophe is imminent as the Israeli occupation tightens its siege on the Jabalia camp and Beit Lahia project in the northern Gaza Strip for the fourth consecutive day. Israel is accelerating the pace of its genocide against the Palestinians there by carrying out mass and planned killings, as well as widespread forced displacements. The international community, led by the United Nations, must act swiftly and decisively to save 10s of thousands of residents who are being subjected to one of the most violent campaigns of genocide the Strip has ever witnessed.
Dutch prosecutors are considering opening a criminal case against senior Israeli intelligence officials after allegations of interference with an International Criminal Court (ICC) investigation. A group of 20 complainants, mainly Palestinians, filed the request, accusing “Israel” of attempting to derail the ICC’s inquiry into war crimes in occupied Palestine.
Lawyers representing the complainants have urged Dutch prosecutors to investigate senior Israeli security officials for their involvement in potentially criminal acts within the Netherlands. A spokesperson for the Dutch prosecution service confirmed that the complaint has been received and is under review.
The move comes after an investigative report revealed efforts by Israeli intelligence, spanning nearly a decade, to influence and intimidate ICC officials. The Dutch government has since raised concerns with “Israel’s” ambassador, given the Netherlands’ responsibility as the host country to ensure the ICC remains free from external interference.
“It’s not just that the US is complicit in this genocide, the US itself is responsible for this genocide”.
It’s been one year since Israel launched its war on Gaza, where at least 41,000 Palestinians have been killed, equal to 1 out of every 55 people living there.
The conflict escalated hours after fighters led by Hamas stormed the barrier fence separating Gaza from Israel in response to provocations by far-right Israelis at the al-Aqsa Mosque complex.
A phalanx of the UK’s most influential journalists brought this odious article to print, decrying as a ‘blood libel’ the reporting of Israel’s killing of thousands of children in Gaza

Imposing candidates, controlling public opinion and widespread repression of dissidents have been essential elements of the celebration of democracy in the United States. (more…)
In an exclusive new documentary, Max Blumenthal rips the cover off the media deceptions and atrocity hoaxes Israel pushed after October 7 to create political space for its gruesome assault on the Gaza Strip. Blumenthal exposes the US mainstream media’s role as a megaphone for the Israeli government, introducing new lies even after their initial ones were debunked.
The last year has brought devastation to many, and sparked one of the biggest waves of pro-Palestine campaigning the UK has ever seen. As the latest escalation shows, the fight is not over yet.
One year of unrelenting Israeli genocide in Gaza: Over 51,000 were killed, including thousands of children, and entire families were wiped out.
As Gaza marks a year of devastation, the numbers tell a heartbreaking story: mass displacement, hospitals in ruins, and generations wiped out.
Prof. Seyed Mohammad Marandi joined the show to discuss Iran’s capabilities should Israel go ahead with planned retaliation targeting nuclear and oil sites. Prof. Marandi asserts this would be a FATAL MISTAKE by Israel and he breaks down in this video exactly why.
Israeli extremists are now openly promoting the occupation of South Lebanon, the same area they were kicked out of back in 2006, shamelessly advertising homes with plans to replace the names of Lebanese towns with Hebrew names.
These dangerous settlement schemes, backed by far-right politicians, reveal “Israel’s” ever-growing obsession with land grabs and ethnic cleansing.
The idea of “Greater Israel” has resurfaced following a viral Jerusalem Post article. Rooted in biblical and Zionist aspirations, it envisions Israel expanding its borders, a concept gaining traction within right-wing Israeli politics. This video explores its history and implications.
For 365 days now, not a single day has passed where “Israel” has not committed at least one massacre against Palestinians in Gaza.
The Israeli occupation forces committed three massacres against Palestinian families in Gaza over the past day, killing 23 Palestinians and injuring 66 others who arrived at hospitals.
This brings the total number of Palestinians killed since October 7 to 41,825 Palestinians and those injured to 96,910.
