By Ramzy Baroud The struggle for Palestinian freedom must remain anchored in the soil of Gaza. The global solidarity movement must not be permitted to mutate into a careerist industry. It all started with […]
By Ramzy Baroud The fallacy of Trump’s strength must be permanently abandoned for a far more accurate representation of the man: the literal embodiment of weakness and cowardice. In his second term in office, […]
By Ramzy Baroud For over two years, Netanyahu postponed a legal verdict on the Haredi draft. But mounting military setbacks, particularly on the Lebanese front, made further delays impossible. For those unfamiliar with the […]
By Ramzy Baroud Despite military gains, despite political pressure, and despite attempts to co-opt sections of Lebanon’s political establishment, Israel failed to fundamentally alter the equation. Israel’s war on Lebanon is doomed to fail. […]
By Ramzy Baroud From Gaza to Tehran, from the politics of resistance to the limits of regional diplomacy, a pressing question has resurfaced amid the 2026 war: why was Palestine not explicitly placed at […]
By Ramzy Baroud Arab political outlooks must leverage these issues in all future integrations with global players, including China, to ensure that the century-long cycle of violence wrought by Western colonialism is over for […]
By Ramzy Baroud At a KPFK event in Los Angeles on May 9, Ramzy Baroud reflects on storytelling as an act of sumud, tracing the intimate relationship between memory, exile, resistance, and the struggle […]
By Ramzy Baroud Palestinian Christians have been subjected to the same policies of ethnic cleansing, racism, and military occupation as their Muslim brothers and sisters. The video is horrifying, though it is the kind […]
By Ramzy Baroud If we remain dependent on US dictates and cues, we are merely subjects of an empire, discounting our own sense of agency and our own internal dynamics. Much of the current […]
By Ramzy Baroud Europe now knows that a genocide has been committed. This paradigm shift is unlikely to be reversed, regardless of whether Luxembourg’s bureaucrats manage to delay the inevitable. The European Union is […]
By Ramzy Baroud To break this paradigm, Palestinians must generate leverage—real leverage. This cannot come from futile negotiations or appeals to long-ignored international law. It is tempting to argue that Israel’s new military doctrine […]
By Ramzy Baroud Those who purchased and invested time in reading Donald Trump’s ‘The Art of the Deal’ should exercise caution. Though reading—even nonsensical material—has value, allowing us to broaden our intellectual horizons and […]
By Ramzy Baroud Even those who oppose war often do so within a framework shaped by the very systems of power they claim to challenge. A respected human rights activist has spoken repeatedly against […]
By Ramzy Baroud The balance is finally shifting. For the first time in decades, the trajectory of history is no longer bending in Israel’s favor. A ceasefire in Lebanon was announced on Thursday by […]
By Ramzy Baroud Ordinary Americans are no longer passive recipients of power, but active participants in shaping a more morally conscious political reality. In the Middle East, the perception of ordinary Americans has long […]
By Ramzy Baroud Outside of a small number of dissenting voices, there is no sustained institutional effort to check presidential power. Congress has not mobilized in any meaningful way. This is not US foreign […]
By Ramzy Baroud Massacres and negotiations converge as Beirut aligns with Israel’s strategy to isolate Hezbollah and undermine Iran’s regional position. Israel’s latest war on Lebanon is not only being waged from the air. […]
By Ramzy Baroud Though the law itself does not explicitly mention children, it does not exclude them either. Knowing Israel’s treatment and legal classification of Palestinian children, this distinction is not minor—it is decisive. […]
By Ramzy Baroud Israel is as dangerous in defeat as it is in victory. Indeed, Lebanon, today, is paying the price of Israel’s strategic failure in Iran. The moment a two-week ceasefire between the […]
By Ramzy Baroud The coming days and weeks are decisive, for an outcome of this magnitude cannot pass without major geopolitical consequences—regionally and globally. The knives are out—and this time, they are not aimed […]
By Ramzy Baroud Power is a condition of being. And that old woman of Tehran—who refuses to leave the ‘battlefield empty’—is its most authentic manifestation. “What are you doing here?” a local journalist in the […]
By Ramzy Baroud Trump’s attack on Macron reflects a deeper crisis as war contradictions mount and allies become targets of blame. “I call up France, Macron – whose wife treats him extremely badly. Still […]
By Ramzy Baroud Standing amid the ruins outside Kamal Adwan Hospital, surrounded by destruction, he walked alone in his white coat toward advancing Israeli armored vehicles. “Israel must immediately release Gazan doctor Dr. Hussam Abu […]
By Ramzy Baroud The US-Israeli war on Iran is a geopolitical catastrophe shaped, in no small part, by the psychology of a leader unwilling to confront the consequences of his own disastrous decisions. The […]
By Ramzy Baroud The challenge now is not simply to recognize that change is underway, but to understand its depth and direction, so as not to remain confined to partial readings of the war […]
By Ramzy Baroud International law, once seen as a shield, has become little more than a point of departure for conversations about its ineffectiveness and hypocrisy. Those who had the misfortune of growing up […]
By Ramzy Baroud Some may argue that Iran is not merely playing chess, but rewriting its rules. That, perhaps, is the most unsettling realization of all. The origins of chess are contested, but few […]
By Ramzy Baroud Why Arab regimes failed Palestine—and why asking the question obscures deeper structures of power, complicity, and regional political alignment. I have always found it interesting, and at times revealing, when seasoned […]
