‘This is a systematic attempt to make Gaza unlivable, to immiserate that population,’ historian says.

From the 1948 Nakba to the genocide unfolding in Gaza today, Israel has a long history of violence against the Palestinian people. As images of death and destruction continue to pour out of Gaza, the question arises: Has the world finally opened its eyes to the plight of the Palestinian people?
