The official death toll in Gaza is now roughly 43,000 people, very conservatively. A real accounting will also include not just those we don’t yet know are dead, but the maimed, the orphaned, the starved, the homeless. Defending Rights & Dissent has started a project called the Gaza First Amendment Alert, which is going to come out every other Wednesday. Chip Gibbons is policy director at Defending Rights & Dissent, a journalist, a researcher and a longtime activist. He led a successful campaign to defeat a proposed unconstitutional anti-boycott bill in Maryland.
