					<description><![CDATA[A viral Sarah Hurwitz clip, a Jewish critic's response, and an argument about "Jewish supremacy" expose a difficult question: if major Jewish institutions strongly identify with Zionism, where does legitimate institutional criticism end and collective blame against Jews begin? The answer requires one standard for everyone.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Shireen Abu Akleh was a Palestinian-American journalist wearing clearly marked PRESS gear when she was killed in Jenin in 2022. The U.N., independent investigations, the U.S. government and eventually Israel itself all pointed toward Israeli fire. More than four years later, no one has been held accountable—and important American investigative findings remain out of public view.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The Hanover Institute looks like an American policy research organization. But its own disclosures and U.S. Justice Department records trace its material through Piro Inc. and Havas Media Germany to Israel’s government advertising agency. The records also raise a direct question about Hanover’s claim that its funder does not select topics—and show why AI systems have already begun citing its reports.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Is “Greater Israel” real or a conspiracy theory? The historical ideology is real, and important parts of it—especially permanent Israeli sovereignty over the West Bank—have moved from activist politics toward government policy. But the viral Nile-to-Euphrates map is not an established official Israeli master plan. This investigation separates what Israeli leaders have actually said and implemented from what remains speculation.]]></description>

Its own findings acknowledge Israeli fire and coordination failures while leaving central eyewitness, targeting and accountability questions unresolved.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[More than 6,390 Palestinians have been affected by the full or partial displacement of 127 West Bank communities since 2023, according to the UN. The evidence increasingly shows a pattern in which violence, demolitions, access restrictions and settlement expansion are changing who can remain on the land — raising a difficult question: does this amount to ethnic cleansing?]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Thirteen-year-old Iman al-Hams was killed by Israeli soldiers near a military outpost in Rafah in 2004. The subsequent radio recordings, military investigation, trial and Israeli court proceedings created an extraordinary documentary record—and a persistent misunderstanding about what the officer known as Captain R was actually acquitted of.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The claim that ISIS “never attacks Israel” is false—but the underlying question is legitimate. ISIS has attacked Israel and Israeli forces, yet its operational focus on Israel has been remarkably limited compared with its rhetoric and geographic proximity. We examine why, what Israel was actually doing with Syrian rebels, the strange ISIS “apology” episode, and whether the evidence supports claims that Israel created, funded, or secretly allied with ISIS.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Were Israeli women raped during the October 7 attack? The evidence supports sexual violence and reasonable grounds for rape allegations—but the number of rapes, some famous atrocity stories, and the larger claim of a centrally organized mass-rape strategy require a much more careful answer.]]></description>
