This is a hard article to read, but I hope you'll do so. I've spent some time reporting on widespread rape and other sexual violence of Palestinian male and female prisoners by Israeli authorities, and the article is now published. The assault victims were warned not to give speak of what they endured -- they were sometimes told they would be killed or raped if they gave interviews -- but they found the courage to do so. One man described being raped three times in a single day in Israeli prison, the third time after he tried to protest. A young woman said the guards would come in at the beginning of each shift and strip her naked and abuse her. Another reported that she was shown photos of herself being raped and warned they would be released unless she cooperated with Israeli intelligence. Even three children who had been detained told me they had been sexually abused. Look, whatever our position on the Middle East, we should be able to agree on being anti-rape. Sexual assaults were horrific when Israeli women were targeted on Oct. 7, and they're equally horrific when Israeli authorities use them against Palestinians day after day after day. We should be able to find common ground in opposing rape. Here's a gift link to the article: nytimes.com/2026/05/11/opi…



Sunday on 60 Minutes: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu speaks with CBS News' Major Garrett about the ongoing conflicts in the Middle East, prospects for a peace deal, and what he told President Trump in the Situation Room prior to the president’s decision to strike Iran.

Off to protest against Jew hatred in central London. 87 years after my Jewish grandfather fled Nazi Germany to Britain and it’s still necessary to protest against this shit. But here we are….
