Go topBy: Barbara Nimri Aziz / Arab America Contributing Writer We wring our hands and shake our heads sadly as the toll mounts. Palestinian corpses along the roadside, limp bodies pulled from the rubble, wrapped figures large and small laid outside a hospital or beside a tent. Viewing these images from afar is painful enough. But … Continued
By: María Teresa Fidalgo-Azize | Arab America Contributing Writer The story is about love because there is this preconceived idea that this place in Gaza, it’s only full of destruction and vandalization and occupation. And in the midst of it all this, there is really something that we should discuss. It is love. Tarzan and … Continued

This is the thirty-ninth of Arab America’s series on American pathbreakers of Arab descent. The series includes personalities from entertainment, business, sports, science, academia, journalism, and politics, among other areas. Our thirty-ninth pathbreaker, Ali Abunimah, is a Palestinian American activist and journalist.

By: Bishara A Bahbah / Arab America Featured Columnist Since the outbreak of the Gaza War on October 7, 2023, the Biden administration has been emphatic in its support for Israel. This support permitted Israel to ravage Gaza savagely, kill over 30,000 people, injure over 72,000, destroy to rubble Gaza’s infrastructure, and deprive its population … Continued
According to a recent report compiled by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, more than half of the air-to-ground munitions Israel used in Gaza since the start of the war, October 7th, were “dumb bombs” or unguided bombs. The usage of the bomb posed a huge threat to an area like Gaza which is densely populated in the world. It is estimated that over 2 million people live on the territory. The U.S pressuring Israel to lessen its civilian death toll is contrary to their more recent weapons sale with Israel and has called many to question Biden’s administration even those of his own political party especially with the Palestinian death toll rising above 20,000 and those injured over 50,000.

Israel’s primary pretext for attacking and killing Palestinian … Continued

In the ongoing Gaza war, Israel has been severely maltreating the people of Gaza, failing to prioritize the freeing of hostages held by Hamas and oblivious to the admonitions … Continued
By: Menal Elmaliki / Arab America Contributing Writer The Israel and Hamas war is the war that has broke the internet, with some calling it genocide with the deaths of almost 20,000 civilians, wounding almost 50,000, the destruction of infrastructure, homes, and hospitals, the disruption and blockade of humanitarian efforts and supplies, and water and electricity … Continued
By: Ghassan Rubeiz / Arab America Contributing Writer President Biden cautions Israel not to reoccupy Gaza, attack Lebanon or continue to harass Palestinians in the West Bank and East Jerusalem.
