Despite there being nothing left in Gaza but dust and rubble, the Israeli military offensive in continues unabated, reports Thursday Buzz guest Jennifer Loewenstein, who also bemoans the dearth of media coverage of the ongoing assault and resulting humantarian crisis in her conversation with host Tony Castañeda.

Dominating the pages of most newspapers is coverage of Pope Francis’ recent death. The progressive Pope reportedly had made a habit of calling Gaza every night at a certain time, speaking with a local priests in the territory’s tiny Christian community to bless them and encourage them to remain strong. His outspoken condemnation of the ongoing war stands in stark contrast to the virtual silence from most world leaders on the issue.
