My publisher, Pluto Press, suggested I do an essay for their blog on the current situation in Gaza.
Readers of this blog might recognize the structure. I used my July 13 piece ("A Brief Comment on Gaza") as a point of departure, but revised and expanded it significantly.
I hope the new version is helpful.
