Never in my wildest dreams would I have expected to read in the NY Times that a one-state solution was "an emerging global consensus."

You will never read an official govt attack offering any credible evidence rebutting Kristof, because the story was reported and documented widely a year ago in the Israeli press. It's unfortunate that it took so long for the NYT to report it.

The best the Israel apologists can come up with to "discredit" the Kristof account of the IDF rape regime at Sde Teiman, is a lame hatchet job in Murdoch's Wall Street Journal. It's as thin as a hair.

Israel-Lebanon ceasefire extended by three weeks. Israel & the US have only 1 interest in these talks: eradicating Hezbollah fr Lebanon. They have no idea how the state will do this as it has no capability to do it. Nor is the country unified in this goal. But Neither Israel nor the US care about it's internal cohesion. In fact, Israel is just as happy with a Lebanon in absolute chaos, as one that has rid itself of https://www.axios.com/2026/04/23/trump-israel-lebanon-ceasefire-extended-talks-us-iran-warHezbollah.

Hungary must arrest Netanyahu if he visits, Magyar says. Astonishing that Hungary, of all the country's in Europe vows to honor an ICC arrest warrant, while other major states refuse, rendering it toothless.
Curious that Netanyahu announced he'd been invited to Hungary, while Magyar threatened him w arrest if he came. Seems like typical Israeli bluff, bluster & overreach. https://www.politico.eu/article/peter-magyar-hungary-

But he was still prohibited from exposing one of the most important details...The the officer who gave the order to murder the captive was *Moshe Halevi,* who later became IDF chief of staff. He was never punished for his crime. Even in writing an obituary today in Haaretz, Benn still could not reveal this.
He did however, note that "foreign sources" did reveal things he couldn't. Unfortunately, what he failed to say is that *I* was that source.

Of the making of much bullshit there is no end. No 1 will put up money for Gaza reconstruction because they know Israel will destroy it the next go round. In 2006, the US & Fatah mounted a coup against Hamas, which failed. Ending w Hamas in Gaza & Fatah in W Bank. The only attacks are mounted by Israel which has broken every ceasefire it ever signed. Hamas is alive & rules Gaza. Israel has lost.
