The focus of the Palestinian Authority on diplomatic resistance and popular protest has done little to curb Israel's escalating violence or improve life under occupation and Palestinians are tired of it, writes Emad Moussa.

China's new peace plan expands its involvement in Ukraine and may signal Beijing's growing impatience with Moscow's prolonged war. But supplying Russia with weapons would be a fateful decision, writes Emad Moussa.

After a year of fighting, Russia's invasion of Ukraine has pushed both sides to extremes, as continued NATO intervention and heightened polarisation promise a dangerous escalation with the threat of a global war looming, writes Emad Moussa.

Anger is growing among Egyptians who can barely make ends meet and fear for their future amidst an economic crisis. However, given the considerable state repression it is difficult to tell whether they will rise up, writes Emad Moussa.

International response to the Turkey-Syria earthquake has disproportionately overlooked Syrian suffering and people's need for aide due to the Assad regime’s hold over affected areas. This defies the principles of humanitarianism, argues Emad Moussa.

When violence is embedded in the very fabric of Israel's settler colonial regime, waging an armed struggle is morally justified in the fight for decolonisation and Palestinian liberation, writes Emad Moussa.

After nearly a year of fighting, both sides are now stepping up their military tactics in a way that could escalate the deadly conflict further, with each seeing the war as a battle for survival, writes Emad Moussa.

The growing impact of ‘influencers’ has dangerously emboldened some to become self-appointed experts in subjects like Covid vaccines, and even attracted repressive states like Egypt to breed their own social media ‘ambassadors’, argues Emad Moussa.

Israeli media at the Qatar World Cup have been met with outright rejection from football fans in solidarity with Palestine. But rather than encouraging self-reflection, Israelis have resorted to a familiar narrative of victimhood, writes Emad Moussa.

The brief occupation of the Gaza Strip is a lesser known chapter in Palestinian history, but is important to understand the ideological underpinnings of the ongoing Israeli occupation, writes Emad Moussa.
