EDITOR—The Grayzone’s Max Blumenthal and Wyatt Reed discuss the killing of at least 100 people sheltering at the al-Ahli Arab Baptist Hospital in Gaza City and dubious Israeli claims that the massacre resulted from a misfired Palestinian rocket.

INDICA—Nat Turner’s slave rebellion in 1831 was covered the same as the Palestinian rebellion today, as you can see in the woodcut above. The enslaved were portrayed as brutally murdering women and children, and then mercilessly pursued by Dragoons with modern weapons. What’s happening to Palestine now? It’s literally the same script, 200 years later. They even use the same lies to justify themselves.

MAX BLUMENTHAL / DAN COHEN—In Killing Gaza, journalists Dan Cohen and Max Blumenthal documented Israel’s 2014 war on Gaza. Yet this film is much more than a documentary about Palestinian resilience and suffering. It is a chilling visual document of war crimes committed by the Israeli military, featuring direct testimony and evidence from the survivors. “Max Blumenthal and Dan Cohen’s powerful new film, ‘Killing Gaza,’ offers an unflinching and moving portrait of a people largely abandoned by the outside world, struggling to endure.” – Pulitzer-prize winning journalist, best-selling author and activist Chris Hedges.

DANNY HAIPHONG—Journalist and founder of The Electronic Intifada (LINK: https://electronicintifada.net/) Ali Abunimah joins for special coverage of Palestine’s latest wave of resistance to Israeli occupation. Plus a text selection from Electronic Intifada on the same topic.

EDITOR—Given the dimensions of this crisis, and with an increasingly enraged or clueless public clamoring for a restoration of some sort of tolerable normalcy that is in itself an illusion—the disease is too far advanced—we need lucidity, political sophistication, and honesty to guide our actions. People who can make sense of the myriad forces defining this new reality and who can sketch out the possible solutions and escape routes. Obviously such people will not come from the ranks that constitute the disease. The solutions won’t be found in the capitalist playbook. They won’t come from the liberal/globalist mob currently in control of the Democratic party, always a fraud, and currently the main tool for the Deep State’s antisocial machinations.
