The Killing of Gaza

Levy is a rare voice of dissent. A humane and courageous Israeli journalist who weekly documents the moral degradation of colonisation on the Jewish state and its disastrous impact on the Palestinian people. This book represents a compelling collection of his writings at a time when his bravery is more needed than ever. – Antony Loewenstein, author of The Palestine Laboratory[The Killing of Gaza] shines an important light on a brutal conflict, without pretending to have a resolution for it. * Kirkus Reviews *The Killing of Gaza: Reports on a Catastrophe is perhaps the harshest condemnation of Israel’s war on Gaza from any Israeli. – Nathan Robinson * Current Affairs *In The Killing of Gaza, Levy shows how Israel’s routine debasement of Gazans, now intensified by its war against Hamas, has become a primary cause of violence in the region…It’s fortunate that a few journalists in Haaretz are still able to deliver Israeli readers a powerful critique of the regime’s propaganda-one based on direct Palestinian testimony. – Benoit Challand * Public Seminar *[Levy is] a fierce critic of the occupation … The chapters describing the harsh daily reality of life under occupation are an eye-opener. – Mark Weiss * Irish Times *Shows how dreams of collective retribution once found only on the Israeli far right have become mainstream. – Mark Mazower * Financial Times *
