The Perilous Path …
Viele offene Fragen, viel viel Hoffnung, auch mancher Zweifel und manche Skepsis: Eine Möglichkeit für eine andere Zukunft scheint sich aufzutun, sind aber auch beide Seiten schon soweit, nicht mehr an den eigenen Sieg zu glauben? Daniel Kurtz-Phelan im Gespräch mit Philip Gordon
Zur Frage der Information
Wer schreibt was warum und warum nicht: Information(spolitik) ist längst zu einem Mittel der Kriegsführung geworden (wahrscheinlich schon immer gewesen), hier zwei lesenswerte Beiträge zu diesem Themenbereich:

Nahost-Berichterstattung: Mehr Israel pro Woche als Palästina im halben Jahr (www.schantall-und-scharia.de)
07. Oktober (2025)
Eigentlich ist es ein Tag wie jeder andere, an dem Menschen leiden, leiden, weil ihre Verwandten, ihre Freund:innen noch in Geiselhaft sind, weil die Kinder hungern und die Besatzungsarmee (noch) immer in Gaza und anderenorts zugange ist … .
Und doch ist es ein besonderer Tag, weil wir Menschen in solchen Zyklen wie Jahrestagen denken und fühlen und auch weil es seit langem etwas, etwas Hoffnung gibt auf eine Ende der Gewalt.
Deshalb heute einmal vier Meldungen, die die Komplexität der Wirklichkeit spiegeln sollen, an einem Tag, nicht wie sonst jeden Tag („nur“) eine:

Fundsache: New Jewish Narrative
Burg: Gaza is the very end of The Holocaust as Israel’s moral legitimacy
Aus dem (August-)Blog von Avrum Burg, harte Worte und schwere Kost …
The Holocaust will forever remain a black hole in human history. But the moral credit card it gave Israel has expired. From now on, Israel will be measured like any other state: by its actions in the present.
This is a painful realization for Israel. Perhaps the most painful since its founding. For the first time, it is asked for accountability and moral reckoning for its own deeds and wrongs. And yet this moment holds new possibility. The crimes of Hamas in October 2023 do not justify, let alone balance, Israel’s crimes since. Though it must repeatedly said: Jews never committed or attacked Germany, and the Final Solution had no justification, none whatsoever. Yet the post-2023 Israel must become Gaza’s Germany, Palestine’s Germany. Having destroyed, Israel must rebuild. Having denied, it must ensure an entire generation of Palestinian life in peace and hope.Since there is one more lesson from “our holocaust”. Not only the victims need healing and repairs. So does the criminal victimizer. This time it is us the Israelis.
