More Than a Boat: The Gaza Flotilla as a Symbol of a Growing Global Movement

One needs only to examine the actions and rhetoric of the Israeli government to fully appreciate the profound significance of the solidarity flotillas bound for Gaza. As the latest and most significant of these efforts, the Global Solidarity Flotilla sets sail, Israel's hostile discourse has intensified, articulated most forcefully by National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir.

Making Palestinians Go Away

Donald Trump, recently sporting his red ballcap modestly featuring the words “Trump Was Right About Everything,” is apparently in regular contact with Israel’s genocidal Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Per Netanyahu, the most recent telephonic exchange had Trump expressing full support for the establishment of control over all of Gaza and the West Bank by the Israeli Army. Trump observed that Israel has been losing the “PR” (Public Relations) war over the carnage and must push ahead “with full force” to “finish the job” as quickly as possible.

The "Voice of Gaza" whom Israel has assassinated. Farewell, Abu Obaida!

According to the Army Radio, this is the third time since the beginning of the war and the 23 times in 22 years that Israel has attempted to kill Abu Obaida. He has managed to escape all previous attempts but this time Israel succeeded. He was killed by Israeli airstrikes that targeted an apartment building believing he was in at the Rimal neighborhood in Gaza City on August 30, 2025. The Times of Israel reported that 11 people, including children, were killed in the strike. One of his famous quotes, “We saw God’s victory manifest as we stormed the enemy’s fortresses on October 7th, which crumbled before us like a spider’s web.” Abu Obaida threatened Israel on August 29 that it would "pay the price" with "its soldiers' blood" if it sought to conquer Gaza City. Abu Obeida is a hero and the voice of resistance. He exposed the Israeli lies and showed the world who the real child-killers are, the Zionists. He stood like a mountain with nothing but faith in his heart, facing an enemy with weapons far greater than his own — and yet, it was his courage that shook the Israelis. Many Israelis trusted him though more than Crime Minister Netanyahu. Reason?

The Palestine Chronicle Case: When Truth Becomes the Crime

The Palestine Chronicle is not a militant organization. It is a modest, independent publication, sustained by small donations and animated by a singular mission: to bear witness. It tells the untold stories of Palestine, documenting dispossession, resistance, and the endurance of a people condemned to silence. In a media landscape dominated by powerful conglomerates repeating the language of governments, the Chronicle insists on a journalism of proximity — grounded in daily lives, in the rubble of Gaza, in voices otherwise erased. Its true offense, in the eyes of its detractors, is not invention but truth.

The War on Truth: Why Are Palestinian Journalists Being Systematically Erased?

The killing of seven Palestinian journalists and media workers in Gaza on August 10 has prompted verbal condemnations, yet has inspired little to no substantive action. This has become the predictable and horrifying trajectory of the international community's response to the ongoing Israeli genocide.

 By eliminating Palestinian journalists like Anas al-Sharif and Mohammed Qraiqeh, Israel has made a sinister statement that the genocide will spare no one. According to the monitoring website Shireen.ps, Israel has killed nearly 270 journalists since October 2023.

Marwan Barghouti's spirit remains unshaken

Marwan Barghouti, a prisoner of freedom for more than two decades, lives endless chapters of suffering behind the cold walls of prison where he is robbed of the warmth of his homeland, denied the embrace of his loved ones, and forced to confront the cruelty of his jailers who with all their might, try to break his resolve. Years of confinement have worn his body to the point of emaciation and affected his features, rendering them almost unlike their former self.

Mahmoud Israel murdered Anas Al-Sharif for the crime of being a journalist

Where are the Western journalists when you need them after Israeli killed Anas, 28, and four other Palestinian journalists? Why are they not showing their solidarity? Is this the case of "Je suis Charlie" as long as he's not Palestinian? No condemnation from any Western leaders! No tweets by the Nobel Peace Prize candidate occupying the White House! No expression of outrage by U.S. State Department! They should be all ashamed of themself for their silence. However, in fairness to American investigative journalist and the founding editor of the Intercept and Drop Site News, Jeremy Scahill, who wrote about Anas, "Tonight, Israel assassinated Gaza's bravest journalist, Anas Al-Sharif. For nearly two consecutive years, he documented the attack on his people with courage and principles. Israel placed him on its assassination list because of his voice. Shame on this world and on everyone who remained silent." As of June 6, 2025, the number of journalists killed by the IDF in Gaza since Oct. 7, 2023, was 226 according to Gaza's government Media Office, which was reported by Türkiye Today.

High suicide rates among IDF combat soldiers is skyrocketing problem

The Israeli sources have acknowledged severe psychological trauma among Israeli military personnel due to the Gaza conflict, admitting that 43 soldiers have committed suicide since the start of war on Gaza in October 7, 2023, according to Saed News article in July 8, 2025. On August 3, 2025, the Israeli daily Haaretz reported that 7 IDF soldiers died by suicide in July. PTSD Veterans are desperately trying to stop the next one. "We have one goal: Stop the next suicide": A surge in soldier suicides among the IDF has driven longtime PTSD survivors to camp outside the IDF Headquarter. The state of Israel is not sending soldiers to jail for refusing to return to Gaza after they killed children or intentionally shooting themselves in the limbs, according to the Middle East Eye article. Deliberately blowing up innocent civilians, watching while dogs eat body parts, running over pregnant women on the way to the hospital to deliver their babies with a tank, and laughing while shooting aid seekers will make anyone, even Israelis, choose death over life eventually.

US veteran quit Gaza Humanitarian Fund after witnessing war crimes by the IDF

"A starving 5-year-old Amir walked 12 kilometers to collect food at the food distribution center in Rafah run by the controversial Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, and it is heartbreaking. He approached me and took a bag, but he had nothing to put in it.

Then Amir extended his hand, and I thought he wanted more aid. I extended mine to him and he kissed it and said, "Thank you."

I looked at this little boy, barefoot, starving, barely clothed, and said, 'Someone cares for you?'

I was kneeling on my knees, and Amir approached me, held my head in his thin, dusty hands, and said, "Thank you." He then left, carrying the small amount of food he had taken from me.

Moments later, the Israeli army opened fire on the hungry crowds who had come to collect the food, and they fell in front of me one by one. Among those whose bodies were pierced and killed by bullets was this child, Ameer."

The above statement is a testimony by a US eyewitness The Resonance. He is a retired Lt. Col. who was serving as a contractor with Gaza Humanitarian Fund in Rafah.
