Corpses lie in the streets and dogs eat them: Youssef describes the “horrible” situation in northern Gaza
More than the lack of humanitarian aid, it was the incessant artillery fire that made Youssef flee the Jabalia refugee camp, much worse, he says, than the air raids. Buildings have been destroyed and there have been no rescuers for several weeks to go and save the victims, he reports. “I left because of the random strikes. There are no more safe places in the region. Houses, hospitals… Bodies lie in the streets and dogs eat them.”

Why Netanyahu won’t let Israel stop fighting after killing Hamas’s Sinwar
Israel has historically obstructed political solutions that would bring about a fully sovereign Palestinian state, Yezid Sayigh, an expert on Israel-Palestine and the Middle East for the Carnegie Middle East Center think tank in Beirut, told Al Jazeera.“Israel has assassinated many Palestinian leaders before and it will continue doing that. Nothing has ever changed because, fundamentally, successive Israeli governments – even under Labour, not just Likud – have been unwilling to cede territory or cede genuine Palestinian sovereignty,” he said.“The result: [Israel] has locked itself into permanent conflict and they have continued all this time to prefer military responses because they put themselves into a position where there are no political solutions,” he added.Netanyahu appears to be continuing that trend.

However, as Israel intensifies the colonisation of Palestine in the next year, that might prod more individuals and institutions to frame the reality in Palestine as colonial and the Palestinian struggle as anticolonial and dispense with tropes about terrorism and peace negotiations.
Israeli Diaspora Minister Says Lebanon Isn’t a State, Advocates Taking South
Israeli Diaspora Minister Amichai Chikli says that Israel has every right to invade and seize southern Lebanon. He also believes neither Syria nor Iran counts as states, and so don’t merit protection for their status as sovereign nations. Chikli was one of several government ministers who recently urged the Israeli government to cut off all access to humanitarian aid to northern Gaza, and argued that the military should conduct operations to “cleanse” the region. The proposal prescribed similar cleansings of other areas.
