Just saw someone saying using the em-dash is a sign of something being written by AI, because real people rarely use it. This is terrible news for everyone like me who has an unhealthy emotional attachment to the em-dash.
Israel is responsible for nearly 70% of journalist killings across the globe in 2024. A total of 85 killings marks the highest number by a single country in one year since CPJ began documenting this data more than three decades ago.

This is deeply inappropriate for so many reasons. I'm sorry, but anti-Zionist Jewish people need to stand on our business and call this sort of thing out. Palestine is still being destroyed; there is no "after" for people lying under rubble. Why are you using that to sell a book?
It all boils down to this:
Our resistance entered our occupied lands, defying the so-called invincible army. With simple weapons we crafted with our own hands-without begging America or the West for arms-we entered, defeated you, and neither killed a child, raped a woman, nor cut down a tree.
And because this army is cowardly, it began killing children and women, kidnapping, raping, and then murdering them in front of the entire world. It destroyed homes, infrastructure, bombed hospitals and schools, and committed massacres, sparing no form of killing to cover up its failure on
October 7.
They even attempted to kill their own captives held by us, to deny us using them as leverage. Yet, our resistance did its utmost to protect them.
As for the world, its governments have never stood by us. They supported you, armed you, and stood on your side.
Still, you will find nothing from us but patience and a refusal to surrender or submit.
