By Ramzy Baroud The nearly 21 agonizing months of unrelenting Israeli genocide have taught us a brutal lesson: Israel is, after all, a vassal state, utterly unable to fight its own wars. The Israeli […]
By Ramzy Baroud Netanyahu may continue repeating, like a broken record, old colonial slogans, but genuine change will only happen because of the peoples of the region and their many capable political players. Israeli […]
By Ramzy Baroud Tehran established a powerful new deterrence equation—proving that it can strike not only Israeli cities but US bases across the region. On June 24, US President Donald Trump announced a truce […]
By Ramzy Baroud Gaza is the place where resistance has never ceased, not for a single moment. This fact alone is sufficient to establish Gaza as the most critical and undeniable component in the […]
By Ramzy Baroud US contradictions and the absence of true leadership should compel regional and international players to activate a multilateral approach to conflict resolution. US foreign policy in the Middle East appears to […]
By Ramzy Baroud Ultimately, it will be the tenacity of the Palestinians and the growing solidarity with their just cause that will eventually force FIFA to take action. Fans worldwide are unequivocally challenging FIFA’s […]
By Ramzy Baroud The rationale behind this psychological warfare is to imprint upon the Palestinians in Gaza the indelible impression that their fate has been sealed, and that the future of Gaza can only […]
By Ramzy Baroud While one welcomes the significant shifts in the West’s position against Israel, it must remain abundantly clear that Netanyahu has no genuine interest in abandoning his plan of starving and ethnically […]
By Ramzy Baroud It remains uncertain how long Netanyahu will remain in power, but his political standing has significantly deteriorated. He faces widespread domestic opposition and international condemnation. There was a time when Benjamin […]
By Ramzy Baroud Israel has clearly failed to secure any genuine or lasting victory, and the obvious solution is for Israel to be reined in and held accountable for its crimes in Gaza and […]
By Ramzy Baroud The inability to ensure basic aid to Gaza will profoundly question our shared humanity for years to come. The situation in Gaza today starkly highlights Israeli exceptionalism. Israel is employing the […]
By Ramzy Baroud Israel itself is acutely aware of this inherent paradox, hence its immediate and brutal choice: the perpetration of a genocide, a horrific act intended to pave the way for the ethnic cleansing […]
By Ramzy Baroud Zamir, who had already committed that “2025 will be a year of war,” seems less inclined now to escalate the war beyond Israel’s ability to sustain it. A seemingly strange choice […]
By Ramzy Baroud Palestinians’ expectations from the Arab world have shifted. They no longer seek a call to arms or a comprehensive embargo on Israel, but rather the cessation of any actions that support […]
By Ramzy Baroud While US activists advocating for justice in Palestine deserve unwavering support and defense for their profound courage and humanity, Americans must also recognize that they, and the remnants of their democracy, […]
By Ramzy Baroud The fact that France would be among the last group of countries in the world to formally recognize Palestine, speaks volumes about France’s apparent attempt to belatedly align itself with the […]
By Ramzy Baroud Netanyahu’s political standing is diminished. He is perceived as a failed political leader and military strategist, unable to secure decisive victories or extract political concessions from his adversaries. Israeli Prime Minister […]
By Ramzy Baroud Netanyahu’s actions have violated a longstanding taboo, further exacerbating Israel’s already unprecedented internal crisis. In just 24 hours, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu nominated Eli Sharvit as the new chief of […]
By Ramzy Baroud Trump’s unexpected embrace of diplomacy with Iran has thrown Netanyahu off balance and exposed cracks in the US-Israel “special relationship.” As usual, US President Donald Trump has given all sides enough […]
By Ramzy Baroud Though the Ashkenazis are losing most of their political power, they continue to hold most of their economic cards, which could lead to disruptive strikes and civil disobedience. The phrase “civil […]
By Ramzy Baroud As solidarity with Palestine has increasingly expanded from the global South to the global majority, Arabs remain largely ineffective. Explaining Arab political failure to challenge Israel through traditional analysis—such as disunity, […]
By Ramzy Baroud The situation in Gaza embodies Orwell’s concept of “doublethink”—the power of holding two contradictory beliefs in one’s mind simultaneously and accepting both. In a genocidal war that has spiraled into a […]
By Ramzy Baroud There are several common misunderstandings about people’s history that need to be addressed. These misconceptions often stem from the way this form of research is applied, especially in newer contexts. My […]
By Ramzy Baroud Palestine may not be the sole measure by which the Trump administration will be judged. Yet, it is undoubtedly a crucial test. It is crucial for any American administration to recognize […]

By Ramzy Baroud There is a silver lining, specifically an opportunity for the international legal and political system to be fixed based on new standards. International law is fighting for relevance. The outcome of […]
By Ramzy Baroud Though Palestinians have demonstrated that their sumud – steadfastness – is enough to repel all stratagems aimed at their very destruction, Arab nations must reclaim their position. Language matters. Aside from […]
By Ramzy Baroud Decolonizing solidarity is now an urgent task. There is no time to waste when the very existence of Palestinians in their historic land is at stake. We have long argued that […]
By Ramzy Baroud It is time for the Arabs to prove to Israel that the lessons of history have been learned, and will never be repeated. “I’ve read 25 books” on the Middle East, […]
A recent New York Times made many claims about the ‘mass rape’ of Israeli women on October 7. But two leading Palestinian media organizations, The Palestine Chronicle and Friends of Palestine Network, conducted a joint investigation, the outcome of which resulted in the ‘The Black Dress’, a groundbreaking 18-minute documentary looking into allegations and the possible falsification of evidence.
