"If the Americans, Arabs, and other nations want to make a contribution to ending this conflict, they would direct their pressure not on Hamas and Palestinians, but on Israel and its leadership. They would demand an end to the genocidal and annexationist policies of the Netanyahu government." - #MiddleEast scholar Dr. James J. Zogby #jameszogby

Behind the Rashomon-like Views of Anti-Hamas Protests in Gaza

During the past week, there were reports of Palestinians in Gaza engaged in public protests against Hamas. These demonstrations took place in at least three main locations involving hundreds and possibly thousands of Palestinians overall. The signs carried by protesters and the slogans they’ve used

Netanyahu Sacrificed the Ceasefire to Save His Own Neck  — James Zogby

The Tea Party had no more than 300k constituents.

MI, WI, and PA were close.

80m eligible voters didn't vote.

Dr. Zogby has been personally active in U.S. politics for many years; in 1984 and 1988 he served as Deputy Campaign mgr. and Sr. Advisor to the Jesse Jackson presidential campaign. In 1988, he led the first-ever debate on Palestinian statehood at that year's Democratic convention in Atlanta, GA. In 2000, 2008, and 2016 he served as an advisor to the Gore, Obama, and Sanders pres. campaigns.

[His conclusions are not universally shared, to put it mildly.]
