After the announcement of a ceasefire and prisoner swap in Gaza, attention quickly turned to Hamas’s weapons and the question of who will govern the Strip after the war, issues the Resistance’s spokesman Hazem Qassem addressed in an interview with Al-Estiklal.

Has “Israel” lost its popularity even among Americans? That seems to be the reasoning behind its reliance on multiple PR firms and social media influencers to market its narrative, improve its image, and cover up its actions in Gaza for millions of dollars.

Larry Ellison emerges not only as a billionaire businessman of global wealth and influence but also as one of the leading financial backers of the Israeli occupation project, channeling his fortune and networks to drive a political agenda that reaches into the heart of the Middle East conflict.
