EDITOR—Jon Elmer provides military analysis of the latest developments on the ground. The fiercest battles remain around the central Gazan enclaves of Al-Zaytoun (Olives) neighborhood of Gaza City. The hunters became the hunted. It should be noted that the Israelis rely on the most advanced weapons available to Western armies, including detection techniques, whereas Palestinians are confined to using homemade weapons manufactured in underground hideaways.

Palestine is in Africa, and Arabic Peoples are Africans
15 minutes readLAITH MAROUF—Thousands of years of cultural exchange and intermarriage exists between East African peoples, and Arabic peoples and their ancestors. For one, there is not one Somali family that is not intermarried to a Yemeni family; thousands of years of sailing back and forth between what is now Eritrea, Djibouti, Somalia, Yemen and Hijaz. The cultural exchange, trade and intermarriage along the Nile basin from Egypt to Ethiopia was as significant as the movement across the Red Sea. Finally, we can not forget the failed invasion of Mecca by the King of Abyssinia on the day of the birth of Prophet Mohammad, and the complete opposite 40 years later, the granting of asylum by the Christian King of Abyssinia to the first Muslims who were escaping assassins.

RON UNZ—I think that the Israeli leaders have become so arrogant, so insular, and so confident in their complete political control over the enormous power of the U.S. and its media that they don’t have the slightest concern over what the people of the world think. This explains their very public massacre of Gaza’s helpless civilians by bombs, bullets, and starvation.
After all, the Israelis and their Zionist predecessors have been freely committing the worst sort of crimes and atrocities for generations, without ever incurring any penalty. Instead, nearly all of those dark deeds were either successfully concealed by their media allies or have been almost entirely forgotten.

DON HANK—Why do the Israelis behave like this in full view of the world?
Because they have done this with impunity for 7+ decades, and the US always ran interference for them, censoring the damning reports in the media. In fact, in the case of the Israeli attack on the US ship USS Liberty, Lyndon Johnson forbade any of the wounded and other victims from speaking about the event!
