Gaza and the #WestBank: Dispatches from Catastrophe (II)
https://world-outlook.com/2026/05/01/gaza-and-the-west-bank-dispatches-from-catastrophe-ii/[2 of 2 parts of a dispatch from #JewishCurrents, with an intro by #WorldOutlook]
May 1, 2026โThe resulting testimonies are difficult to read,โ says the introduction to these stories. โThey show the effects of years of industrialized, live-broadcast massacres and colonization, particularly in #Gaza, where more than 10% of the population is estimated to have been killed or injured in the last two years. The Gaza dispatches are a portal to a place where dystopian science fiction โ the exporting of killing to artificial intelligence and robots, the shooting of children lining up for food aid, the crushing of people under air-dropped food parcels โ has become reality.โ

Gaza and the West Bank: Dispatches from Catastrophe (I)
https://world-outlook.com/2026/04/30/gaza-and-the-west-bank-dispatches-from-catastrophe-i/[1 of 2 parts of a dispatch from #JewishCurrents, with an intro by #WorldOutlook]
April 30, 2026In Nov.-Dec.2025, Jewish Currents reached out to some two dozen Palestinians from #Gaza and the #WestBank โ all of whom the magazine had previously interviewed after October 7 โ to ask them how their lives had changed since they last shared their stories.
The resulting testimonies are difficult to read. They show the effects of years of industrialized, live-broadcast massacres and colonization, particularly in Gaza, where more than 10% of the population is estimated to have been killed or injured in the last two years.
โWhat all the voices share is disillusionment: with the political parties #Hamas and #Fatah; with supposed allies like #Arab countries; with international systems such as the #UN; and with notions of international law and justice writ large..."

April 17, 2026On April 12, 2026, members of United Food and Commercial #Workers (#UFCW) Local 7 ratified a new agreement with the JBS Swift beef processing plant in Greeley, #Colorado. A #union press release announcing the vote โ with 93% in favor โ said the contract contained "all gains, countless improvements, and not a single concession."
"This ... is a testament to the incredible resolve of our members," said Local 7 president Kim Cordova. "These workers stood together on the picket line for three weeks, through extreme weather, because they knew their worth and refused to be disrespected."
