To this day-by-day account of the events in Gaza since 7th October 2023 the author adds the comments of journalists, activists, academics, writers, politicians and his own observations and conclusions, making it a reference and critique. Running through it is an attack on the supremacism which underpins the occupation and the violence necessary to sustain it. Ever-present is the US whose concepts of Manifest Destiny and the Monroe Doctrine, derived from its foundation as a settler-colonial society, make it the power behind Israel, the "cop on the beat". Written as the appalling tragedy unfolded, the book has the immediacy of lived events. Covering only a little more than the first two months, it is the first in a series which will follow the so-called war to whatever conclusion it may arrive at.
