Nearly 38 percent of Palestinian students in East Jerusalem now study the Israeli curriculum, while the rest of the students' textbooks are being censored line by line, stripping mention of Jerusalem, prisoners, the Nakba, and freedom fighters. https://mondoweiss.net/2026/10/israel-is-rewriting-the-palestinian-curriculum-in-east-jerusalem-to-erase-palestinian-identity/ #Palestine #Israel #Gaza

Palestinians with Israeli citizenship are no longer asked to pledge allegiance, but to renounce their own history. Palestinian Knesset candidate Sami Abu Shehadeh did exactly that before Israel's Supreme Court, and was pushed out anyway. https://mondoweiss.net/2026/10/the-trial-and-humiliation-of-sami-abu-shehadeh/ #Palestine #Israel #Gaza

Israel is preparing to give settlers access to a main Palestinian thoroughfare in Ramallah, a move that would bring checkpoints and gates to one of the West Bank’s last spaces of free Palestinian movement and affordable urban growth. https://mondoweiss.net/2026/10/israeli-settlers-target-a-ramallah-road-and-the-citys-future-with-it/ #Palestine #Israel #Gaza

At the end of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s unhinged rant at the UN, he recited a seemingly obscure Bible verse.

Robert Kraft got Macklemore ousted from Ed Sheeran's tour over "Free Palestine." A look at the NFL owner's record makes it clear why: funding the IDF, fighting BDS, courting Netanyahu, and bringing football legends on tours of Israel. https://mondoweiss.net/2026/09/what-you-need-to-know-about-robert-kraft-the-pro-israel-billionaire-who-pressured-ed-sheeran-to-drop-macklemore/ #Palestine #Israel #Gaza

A Michigan rabbis' 'nonnegotiable' petition demanding El-Sayed disown Hasan Piker reveals a harsh truth for El-Sayed: that no amount of pandering will satisfy critics who want anti-Zionism expelled from the Democratic party outright. https://mondoweiss.net/2026/09/always-the-victim-never-the-bigot-the-zionist-campaign-against-abdul-el-sayed-doubles-down/ #Palestine #Israel #Gaza

Democrats thought tying Abdul El-Sayed to pro-Palestinian streamer Hasan Piker would derail his insurgent campaign in Michigan, but it backfired.

From Iraq to Iran, the Israel lobby has, for decades, pushed America towards wars in the Middle East.

Mujahed Mofleh, one of Palestine’s finest editors, nearly died after leaving Israeli detention. When I visited him, he could barely move, yet wrote he had messages from prisoners he needed to deliver. That’s when I realized the prison never left him. https://mondoweiss.net/2026/06/mujahed-mofleh-when-the-prison-never-leaves-you/

Hours after Donald Trump announced a “historic” agreement for disarming Hamas and Israel’s withdrawal from Gaza, Israel attacked Gaza, killing 19. Palestinians weren't surprised. “We don’t trust Israel, and we don’t trust America,” said one resident. https://mondoweiss.net/2026/08/israel-kills-19-palestinians-in-gaza-hours-after-trump-announces-his-latest-peace-plan/ #Palestine #Israel #Gaza

Lately, the Democrats have begun openly questioning military aid to Israel, but that isn't enough. Rather, Americans must demand an arms embargo and targeted sanctions to achieve a small measure of justice for all of Zionism’s victims. https://mondoweiss.net/2026/04/ending-aid-isnt-enough-we-need-sanctions-and-an-arms-embargo-on-israel-now/

Israel’s “decisive” plan to annex the West Bank is coming to a head as the Israeli government pushes to depopulate Palestinian villages throughout the territory.

There is a moral panic over whether protests at synagogues against the sale of Israeli settlement homes are antisemitic.

In the West Bank, international solidarity activists have long attempted to shield Palestinians from settler violence.

Genocide does not require mass graves, it also includes efforts to destroy a people's capacity to bring the next generation into being.
