Netanyahu’s far-right regime feels it can get away with mass murder because it enjoys unconditional support from the imperialist powers. Washington, both under the Democrat Biden and the fascist Republican Trump, has viewed the genocide as a key component of a broader regional war to secure American hegemony in the Middle East.

Defence Minister Israel Katz issued a statement Friday committing the Zionist regime to annex parts of Gaza if Hamas refuses to release the remaining hostages under its control. Israel continued its all-out onslaught on the enclave for a fifth straight day, with a brutal blockade on all aid launched at the beginning of March still in force.
