A fragile cease-fire is finally in place in Gaza after Israel carried out a 15-month, U.S.-backed genocide that killed at least 47,107 Palestinians (though the true number is likely far higher) and reduced much of the coastal enclave to rubble.

In the days following the Hamas attack of October 7, 2023, anti-Palestinian hysteria swept the U.S. political and media establishments. As Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) encouraged Israel to ​“level” Gaza, then-Biden White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said that calls for a cease-fire were ​“repugnant” and ​“disgraceful,” while top officials at the State Department instructed staffers not to publicly use terms like ​“de-escalation” and ​“cease-fire.”
