In her 2019 book, Incarcerated Childhood and the Politics of Unchilding, Shalhoub-Kevorkian described how 11 years ago, during Israel’s 2014 onslaught against Gaza, Jerusalem's fanatical marchers in Tel Aviv were already celebrating the annihilation of Gaza’s children. Their chants were chilling: “In Gaza there’s no studying / No children are left there / There’s no school tomorrow / There’s no children left in Gaza! Oleh! / Gaza is a graveyard.”
Shame on Middle East Eye for the disclaimer at the end of the article.
- I would assume that it's boilerplate for all contributed articles.
  
  Especially articles categorized as opinion pieces.
  
  It probably is, for legal purposes.
I'm not saying the content of this article isn't real.
But people should be aware the Middle East Eye isn't a real newspaper. Try to find their official address. You will find they don't have any address. That's not normal.
That's because Middle East Eye is run by the Qatari embassy in London. When Qatar was in a crisis with Saudi Arabia, the MEE published articles violently attacking Saudi Arabia and praising Qatar.
For context, this was the most extreme member of the most extreme rightwing party at the time and that party got a fairly small number of parliament seats. This party now has less than 10% of the parliament seats and will apparently have less after the next election.
- Are we calling Israeli politics before the genocide more "extreme" than Israeli politics during the genocide?
