The article below was first published in the Sept. 1, 2026, issue of the Israeli daily Haaretz. The author, #AmiraHass, is the #Haaretz correspondent for the occupied territories — #Gaza and the #WestBank, which #Israel has illegally held since the Six-Day War in June 1967.

“Across Gaza, the West Bank and Israel itself, the machinery for making #Palestinian life impossible is already operating, laying the groundwork for mass expulsion,” Hass warns in this opinion column. “Let me reiterate: The very existence of the Palestinian people between the sea and the river is now in danger.”

At the #WorldCup on Tuesday [June 23, 2026] — a man in a red suit stood completely still for 90 minutes in the stands. Then he covered his mouth and used two fingers to simulate pointing a gun to his head….His name is Michel Kuka Mboladinga — known as “Lumumba Vea,” which means “Lumumba Lives.” For more than a decade he has stood motionless at every DR [Democratic Republic] Congo match — suit and tie, arm raised — as a living tribute to #PatriceLumumba, the first Prime Minister of an independent Congo. This story provides historical background on who killed #Lumumba and why.

UNITED NATIONS, NEW YORK CITY, July 7, 2026 — In a diplomatic offensive aimed at challenging the #US economic war against #Cuba, Cuba’s foreign minister #BrunoRodríguezParilla requested a session of the #UNGeneralAssembly to re-open debate on ending the US blockade of the island. US secretary of state #MarcoRubio actively and aggressively opposed the proposal. But an overwhelming majority of #UN member states approved Cuba’s request to hold the debate. 136 voted in favor, 9 against, and 30 abstained. A win for Cuba! This is an eyewitness report on the debate that followed.

#MINNEAPOLIS, #Minnesota — On December 14, 2025, some 100 letter carriers and their supporters gathered here as the temperature hovered at 4° F to demand “ICE Off Postal Property!” Immigration Customs and Enforcement (#ICE) agents had been using post office parking lots as staging areas for raids in nearby neighborhoods, disrupting postal workers as they tried to carry out their duties.

At a rally at Lake Street Station, Chris Pennock, vice president of #NationalAssociationOfLetterCarriers (#NALC) Branch 9, told the local NBC #News affiliate: “At the Powderhorn post office, they arrested somebody right in the middle of when we’re bringing back our mail. Vans with tinted windows and body armor and guns. We shouldn’t have to work in that environment.”
