The consequences of Israel’s military assault against the Palestinians in Gaza are ongoing, dealing blows to the occupation state from every direction, the latest of which is at the economic level. Newspaper headlines report from time to time that yet another global ranking company has rated Israel as low. That is what international credit rating companies have done, while the regime in Tel Aviv fears that the ongoing assault on Gaza will contribute to the apparently endless wave of price increases in Israeli markets.

DAMASCUS, April 1 (Xinhua) -- Israel on Monday afternoon launched a missile attack on the consulate building of the Iranian embassy in Damascus, killing at least seven officers.

Thus, Netanyahu’s vision of “total victory” entails the complete occupation and then the systemic ethnic cleansing of as many Palestinians as possible through the only international crossing connecting Gaza with an Arab country.

In a conversation in 2020 with Princeton Professor Emeritus, Richard Falk, he told me that historically, colonised nations that have won the legitimacy war have always won their freedom.
“Free Palestine” is an enduring phrase that will come to define the street chants of millions of angry citizens who’ve marched and protested in capital cities around the world against Israel’s brutal, genocidal onslaught in Gaza.
