Naming and shaming human rights abuses only works when the public views the conduct as wrong. And that’s always up for grabs, the former Human Rights Watch director says.
Donald Trump promised that he would force warring parties in Ukraine, Gaza, and elsewhere to stop fighting and get along. In fact, he’s just siding with aggressors.
I’m a proud Jewish American who helps fundraise for Palestinian refugees. My faith — and international law — demand an immediate resumption of aid in Gaza.
Regional destabilization and troubling precedents for international law are just two reasons why Trump’s plan for Gaza is crazy.
Thousands of Palestinians have died because of Israeli efforts to choke off Gaza’s water supply. Immediate aid — and long-term infrastructure repairs — are essential to save lives.
The U.S. president is reviving old-style colonialism.
Trump is not only aligning himself with the Israeli far-right but also endorsing what can only be described as a war crime.
With a ceasefire in effect, no one else should die in this war — especially not children and older people waiting for medical care, medical evacuations, and safety.
Trump supports the ethnic cleansing of Gaza. That’s not going over well with the architects of the ceasefire.
Hamas needed to address a humanitarian catastrophe. But it hasn’t changed its fundamental positions.
