ANALYSIS: By Gordon Campbell The word “Gaza” is taking on similar connotations to what the word “Auschwitz” meant to a previous generation. It signifies a deliberate and systematic attempt to erase an entire people from history on the basis of their ethnic identity. As a result, Israel is isolating itself as a pariah state on ... <a title="Gordon Campbell: The lack of spine in New Zealand’s foreign policy on Gaza" class="read-more" href="https://eveningreport.nz/2025/08/16/gordon-campbell-the-lack-of-spine-in-new-zealands-foreign-policy-on-gaza/" aria-label="Read more about Gordon Campbell: The lack of spine in New Zealand’s foreign policy on Gaza">Read more</a>

By David Robie, convenor of Pacific Media Watch I never knew Anas al-Sharif personally. But somehow he seemed to be part of our whānau. We watched so many of his reports from Gaza that it just appeared he would be always around keeping us up-to-date on the horrifying events in the besieged enclave.
