Israeli forces destroyed a statue of Iranian General Qassem Soleimani that was placed next to the Lebanese border
After failing to push into Southern Lebanon, Israeli troops have resorted to filming videos of themselves in areas close to the border, destroying structures and displaying Israeli flags. The destruction of the statue of Iranian commander Qassem Soleimani, who the Israelis helped the US assassinate in 2020, is symbolic of Israel’s intent to insult, but so far it has been unable to push into any meaningful advance into south Lebanon.
Israel is considering “the General’s Plan” for northern Gaza, which would mean starving 300,000 people to death
The plan seeks to declare northern Gaza a “closed military zone”, in which all civilians who do not flee within a week will be considered targets and where all aid will be cut to the territory. The Israelis argue this would be an attempt to force some 5,000 Palestinian fighters to surrender, yet have no evidence such a plot would even work.

A new poll from Gallup has found that U.S. presidential approval among Palestinians living in the West Bank and East Jerusalem has dropped to an all-time low of just 5%. More than 88% of respondents disapproved of the Biden/Harris administration’s performance. President Trump was deeply unpopular among Palestinians, but even his approval rating bottomed out at 8%.
The key to this crash in goodwill is Washington’s support for an ongoing Israeli attack on its neighbors. Only 11% of Palestinians characterize US efforts to safeguard civilians in Gaza as reaching an “acceptable” level. 76% of Palestinians disagree or strongly disagree that America’s actions have met the threshold of acceptability.
The United States has sent nearly $18 billion of military aid to Israel in the past 12 months, the largest amount of military funding to Israel in a single year. These weapons are being directly used against civilian populations in Palestine, Lebanon and Syria.
