Day 250 roundtable: A massacre in Nuseirat

Palestinians are reeling from Israel’s horrifying massacre of almost 300 people in Nuseirat refugee camp, as Israel carried out what it calls a rescue of four of its captives, a massacre which – according to the resistance – killed at least three other Israelis as well.

At the same time, Israel has not let up in its atrocities and deliberate starvation policy the length and breadth of Gaza.

We were joined by The Electronic Intifada’s Omar Karmi to discuss the failure of what the US purports are its diplomatic efforts to achieve a ceasefire.

Omar told us about other regional and geopolitical developments that he touches on in his recent piece, “Rudderless, incompetent and complicit.”

Ali Abunimah brought us up to date on Israel’s relentless efforts to push its discredited 7 October mass rapes narrative.

Tel Aviv’s fabrications suffered another serious blow as The Times of London became the first mainstream outlet to cast serious doubt on the assertion that systematic sexual violence was deployed on 7 October.

Jon Elmer covered the resistance throughout the Gaza Strip, from Rafah to Beit Hanoun, including a look at some of the latest videos from the ground.

South African coal to Israel

Shir Hever pointed out last week that South Africa still delivers about 9% of Israel's coal (mostly for its power stations). Colombia urged South Africa to follow its example. Ali said ei would follow up on this. Please do. There is no point in shielding South Africa from criticism.
