Pressured into removing a humanising portrait of Gaza’s children, the BBC offers instead a series on Israel-Palestine that frantically revives the very narrative that made the genocide possible.

A campaign of lies and disinformation have helped to shred international law over the past year and half. And one of the biggest lies is the pretence that, in slaughtering Gaza’s children, Israel has been acting in the interests of Israelis held captive in the enclave.

If there is one thing we can thank US President Donald Trump for doing in his confrontation with Ukraine's Zelensky last week, it was this: he decisively stripped away the ridiculous notion, long cultivated by western media, that the United States is a benign global policeman enforcing a "rules-based order".

Walter Salles' new film on the disappearances of regime critics in 1970s Brazil shows an endless supply of compliant officials who impassively, conscientiously carry out the abuse of men, women and children. It is a reminder that plenty of these people live among us – and that they have been doing very little to hide who they are over the past 16 months.

In reducing Hamas simply to monsters, Israel’s goal was to dehumanise the entire population of Gaza – to justify its genocidal crimes. And yet repeated scenes of Israeli captives demonstrating a human connection to their Hamas captors make that idea harder to sustain.

Trump’s innovation is not the threat to 'clean out' Gaza. It is dropping a long-standing aim to dress up Palestinian expulsion as a peace plan.

During Netanyahu’s visit, President Trump dropped Washington’s sugar coating of Israel’s 15-month genocidal destruction of Gaza. This was always about ethnic cleansing.

The ghosts of thousands of Palestinian children crushed by Israeli bombs loomed over this year's Auschwitz commemorations.

The West’s 'war on terror' was built on a series of deceptions to persuade us that our leaders were crushing Islamist extremism. In truth, they were nourishing it the whole time.

How is it possible that Israel General Oded Basyuk, a major war crimes suspect, is invited to London to meet UK officials in the midst of a genocide investigation by the ICJ, and no major British media outlet has shown the slightest interest in doorstepping him or in asking questions about his visit?
