Israel’s genocide in Gaza is being mirrored by an accelerating campaign of violent ethnic cleansing in the West Bank. Since October 7, attacks have surged dramatically, with more than one thousand Palestinians killed—nearly half the total recorded over the previous two decades. Fueled by the Israeli government’s extremist leadership and its unabashed vision of Jewish domination “from the River to the Sea,” the relentless destruction of homes, forced evictions, and dispossession has intensified, deliberately strangling Palestinian livelihoods.
Our panel will examine this escalating Israeli expansionism, the forces enabling it—including the role of the United States—and the pathways available to disrupt and ultimately shift this deadly dynamic.
