With US Backing, Israel Set To Ethnically Cleanse Gaza
It Was Never About Hostages. It Was Never About Hamas.
Benjamin Netanyahu said on Thursday that freeing the Israeli hostages in Gaza was not his top priority, suggesting instead that defeating Hamas should take precedence over a hostage deal. “We have many objectives, many goals in this war,” Netanyahu said. “We...
Texas Tyranny: Governor Declares War On Town Over Gaza Resolution
I Wish I Could Stop Reading About The Slaughter In Gaza.
(Photo: journalist Fatima Hassouna, murdered by Israel) As I sat in church last Sunday, before the service started, I thought maybe I read too much. I wish I had not read about Mohammed Hegazy, a seven-year-old Palestinian boy who was blinded by an Israeli grenade...
War Dust and Collateral Inhalation: Israel Breathes in Gaza’s Dust
Gaza is suffering the most intense bombing, per capita, of anywhere on earth, ever. Over 100,000 tons of bombs have been dropped on Gaza, an area slightly smaller than the City of Detroit, Michigan, resulting in the recorded deaths of at least 60,000 Gazans and...
Israel – Killing Ambulance Workers, Starving Little Children
On Palm Sunday (April 13), Israeli bombs destroyed the surgery and intensive care sections of the “last fully functional hospital in Gaza City,” according to a report by the British Broadcasting Corporation. The hospital was run by the Episcopal Diocese of Jerusalem,...

Silenced and Seized: How Ukraine’s War, Gaza’s Land Grab, and Europe’s Free Speech Assault Are Fueling a Global Fight for Liberty
In this episode I’m joined by Daniel McAdams, director of the Ron Paul Institute and co-host of the Ron Paul Liberty Report, we dissect three seismic issues shaking the globe: the war in Ukraine, speculative land grabs in Gaza, and Europe’s escalating assault on free...
Gaza on the Riviera Going Nowhere
Well, I was wrong again. I thought that Donald Trump’s scheme to take control of Gaza and send the Palestinians to some great, new homes in Egypt and Jordan was just a negotiating ploy. Nope. He is serious about it and persists insisting that it is a great idea and...
The US Should Not Take Over Gaza
This week, President Trump upended US Middle East policy by announcing that the United States would “take over” war-ravaged Gaza and turn it into “the Riviera of the Middle East.” President Trump also said the Palestinians living in Gaza would be (temporarily?)...
The Greatest (Geopolitical) Showman’s ‘Inside Out’ Political Solution
How to do the impossible? America is instinctively an expansionist power, needing new fields to conquer; new financial horizons to master and to exploit. The US is built that way. Always was. But – if you are Trump, wanting to withdraw from wars on the empire’s...
Netanyahu Entraps Trump in a Quagmire
Seldom, if ever, one gets to pick up the threads of what one had written 3 days back as conjectures. But my prognosis that “the sea side view” of Gaza is mesmerising President Donald Trump and his special envoy for the Middle East Steve Witkoff, two great real estate...
Wait…We’re Taking Over Gaza?
Donald Trump’s Gaza Mirage
I owe Danny Davis an apology. I speculated during our conversation today that one possible explanation for Trump’s recent rant declaring that the Palestinians of Gaza would be relocated to Egypt, Jordan or some other countries was simply a negotiating ploy. I opined...
Condos in Gaza! Solving the Mideast Problem Trump Style
The Great White Father in Washington has spoken. Let mere mortals hark and obey. Gaza is a ‘mess’ said President Trump and must be ‘cleaned up.’ 2.1 million human refuse are befouling this potentially prime beachside property. `We just clean out that whole thing’...
Pope Francis Should Go to Gaza!
The death of former President Jimmy Carter started me thinking about how long it’s been since the United States has been led by a head of state who was also a thoroughly decent human being. To be sure, while in office Carter made many mistakes in terms of...

Moshe Ya’alon has been making news for his declarations that the Israel government has been engaging in ethnic cleansing in Gaza. Many people have been making this claim. But, Ya’alon stands out because of his former high level positions in the Israel government and...
