Fascism rose a century ago partly because too many liberals thought the democratic left was as much of a threat as the far right. Just read The Economist from a century ago.

The youngest person his pager attack killed was 9-year-old Fatima Abdullah, who had just started 4th grade. The pager was on a table when it went off and she picked it up to take to her dad. It exploded in her face and reports said it covered the room in her blood. She wanted to learn English.

I don't see how anyone could call this a "tragedy," a mere "conflict," or something "complicated."
Line chart of youth mortality—the share of children who die before age 15—from 2000 to 2025. Palestine’s rate declines from about 3.5% in 2000 to under 2% in 2022, then rises sharply to about 10.5% in 2024 and 9.5% in 2025. Afghanistan declines from 14% to about 6%, while Ukraine, Chile, the United States, and Israel remain around 1% or below in recent years.

This animation shows the pace of settlement and outpost construction by Israel in the illegally-occupied West Bank, including occupied East Jerusalem, since 1967. Every country in the world except the US agrees with the indisputable fact that all settlements are illegal and constitute war crimes.

Speaks to the total bankruptcy of the so-called two state paradigm that its proponents are just now imposing a trade embargo on settlement goods roughly 60 years into the occupation's history, after 800,000 settlers have been transferred onto the territory, and after a genocide in Gaza takes place.

New York Magazine says in response to criticism of its latest issue that “genocide” is “an accurate description of the atrocities in Gaza [...] and that accusations of antisemitic intent were in fact obfuscating an overwhelming ­scholarly consensus, and that its use would be allowed in our pages”
Some objected to the magazine’s use of the term genocide to describe Israel’s actions in Gaza. Close readers will recognize that this was not a decision specific to this series. This past fall, after an extensive review of genocide scholarship and interviews with multiple experts in the field of genocide studies, the magazine’s editors decided the term was an accurate description of the atrocities in Gaza, that accusations of antisemitic intent were in fact obfuscating an overwhelming ­scholarly consensus, and that its use would be allowed in our pages.
