Gaza is holding its breath today as Israel masses troops and tanks on the border ahead of the launch of an expected invasion of the enclave in retaliation for the brutal assault carried out by the Hamas terrorist group on Saturday. Israeli airstrikes demolished entire neighbourhoods on Wednesday, and hospitals in the Gaza Strip are struggling to treat the injured with dwindling medical supplies. Meanwhile, Gaza's two million residents lost electricity as the enclave's sole power plant ran out of fuel and shut down, energy officials said, deepening the crisis inside the 140-square-mile territory that is currently besieged by Israeli forces.

Hamas -- the Gaza branch of the Muslim Brotherhood --murdered approximately a thousand people on the 50th anniversary of the Yom Kippur 1973 War. While Israeli armed forces deal with the attack, the ideological brothers-in-arms of the perpetrators in the West celebrate. Countless demonstrations have been organized worldwide -- from Berlin to Amsterdam to London -- to anti-Israeli protests in New York, Washington, D.C.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York is naming Christian fundamentalism as a key driver of the ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestine, pointing to recent US actions in the region.
Speaking on local New York radio station Hot 97/WQHT on Thursday morning, the progressive Democratic congresswoman argued that the conflict was not simply the result of Islamic fundamentalism and Israeli extremism.
"It's not just Islamic, it's not just Jewish, it is also Christian," said Ocasio-Cortez. "In the United States of America, Christian fundamentalism and nationalism — which has also been extremely anti-Semitic — has also aligned itself with some of the most right-wing and authoritarian and inflammatory powers in the region."

Encampment-overrun Denver is set to break ground on the first of many micro-communities designed to house the homeless - with 1,000 taxpayer-funded homes set to open by the end of the year.
