Gaza is burning. Anyone who’s watched the livestreamed genocide of the Palestinian people over the last 23 months knows that this is true. But the Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz was boasting when he posted those words on X early Tuesday, also saying “The IDF strikes with an iron fist” and “We will not relent and we will not go back - until the completion of the mission.” His post came as two divisions of the IDF entered Gaza City and with additional reinforcements soon to be joining them. Gaza City has also seen an increase in bombings from the air over recent nights.

Israel’s latest proof to the world that it’s not interested in peace come when pro-Palestinian sentiment is at record highs. At the Emmys the other night, Hannah Einbinder shouted “F- ICE, Free Palestine” and Javier Bardem wore a keffiyeh on the red carpet while saying he “cannot work with someone who justifies or supports the genocide.” 3,900 people signed the Film Workers for Palestine pledge to not “screen films, appear at or otherwise work with Israeli film institutions… that are implicated in genocide and apartheid against the Palestinian people.”

And as people around the country and world prepare mobilizations to mark two years of the genocide with a day of action on October 4th, Florida Congressman Brian Mast has introduced a bill in Congress that would let the Secretary of State revoke passports of U.S. citizens who support the Palestinian people and their liberation struggle.
