“What’s happening in Gaza should radicalize you. It absolutely should. Right now, even as its own criminality hits fever pitch, the western political-media class is fretting with increasing shrillness about young people getting ‘radicalized’ and turned against their government by the spread of information and ideas at campus demonstrations and on TikTok. But young people should be radicalizing right now. Everyone should. When you see Israel rejecting a Hamas ceasefire and beginning its long-threatened assault on Rafah (the last so-called ‘safe zone’ in Gaza), that should radicalize you. When you see US senators assist this horrifying onslaught by publicly threatening the International Criminal Court if they dare to indict Israeli officials for war crimes, that should radicalize you. When you see Israel shutting down Al Jazeera to quash news reporting about its criminality immediately before launching this mass atrocity, that should radicalize you.” (05/07/24)
