Extraordinarily honored to be part of this @intifada exclusive mini-doc breaking down Zionism and exposing the tactics used to smear anti-racists in order to shield Israel. Watch it here! electronicintifada.net/blogs… @talakaddoura @AliAbunimah @TamaraINassar @AsaWinstanley

On October 31st and November 1st 1948 IOF soldiers rounded up 90 men and boys and took them to a house in the village of Houla in southern Lebanon and shot them. Then house was then collapsed on them and they were only identified months later by their clothing.
In November 2024 the IOF entered Houla again and desecrated the memorial, daubing it with the words “the only good Shia is a dead Shia”. Now the village is inside the so-called “yellow zone” and has largely been destroyed.
This is what a genocide looks like.

In 2024, German authorities deployed thousands of police officers and to shut down a conference in Berlin exposing Germany's political and military support for Israel's genocide in Gaza.
A new documentary by @DrorDayan, "Gleichgeschaltet," details those events and the wider system of German repression that produced them.

A kindergarten bombed. We repeat, a kindergarten was bombed in Gaza. Yesterday, on October 30th, the Saftawi area in Western Gaza City, the military occupation bombed a school building. This also impacted many Palestinians tents and homes.

Families in the area lost everything yet their faith in God and his decree remain unshakeable. But no human on earth should tolerate this unfathomable level of loss, over and over again.
The Sameer Project is looking to help some of the families affected with your support. We are hoping to get mattresses and blankets for families that lost all of their belongings.
The insanity of families still being bombed when the international media is depicting a “ceasefire” is clear. It is our duty to rise and demand an end to the genocide.
Support our General Fund to help families impacted by the ongoing bombings: chuffed.org/project/113222-t…

The aftermath of the Israeli attack on the southern Lebanese town of Baraachit

This morning, Palestinian elder from Haifa, George Abu Shaqara, was beaten by zionist settlers on his way to work at his falafel restaurant in the Wadi Nisnas neighborhood of the city. The Israelis chanted “death to Arabs” as they attacked him.
An excellent review of NAZA and the entitled, supremacist refusal of Zionists to recognize “Israel” as a genocidal project and act accordingly. Well done @nickikattoura
I watched NAZA and reviewed it for @themarkazreview

Was a great honour to discuss “gleichgeschaltet” and Germany’s support of Zionism as a way of returning to its old fascist ways on the live stream of the fearless Electronic Intifada. Thanks to all the comrades for the discussion (from minute 45).

Across the U.S., thousands of people are calling for an end to the genocide in Gaza and for a free Palestine through protests, divestment campaigns, and acts of solidarity.
Our solidarity is our resistance.

Exclusive: Facing subpoenas, pro-Palestine activists refuse to testify in US DOJ's fishing expedition against jailed donor Fergie Chambers
They call their potential imprisonment “a cheap price to pay for the defense of our movement”

Malm’s pamphlet “The Destruction of Palestine is the Destruction of the Earth” brilliantly analyses the links between Zionism, US imperialism and fossil capitalism.
The Home Secretary needs to take the L, admit Huda and DOJ outplayed you, and overturn the ban on Pal Action.
Banning academic and author Andreas Malm from entering Britain to stop him from speaking alongside myself, a Palestine Action co-founder, is another disgusting attack on free speech as a result of the draconian ban.
The ban must be overturned.

Dockworkers' International Day of Action
Seafarers’ unions join the picket lines for the major international strike across 113 ports on 5 continents. Seafarers will not risk their lives in war zones for shipowners’ profits!

Palestinians are so dehumanized that this is still called a “ceasefire.”

Imo this is huge news. A press that actually covered workers would make this a top headline for days.

My brave co-defendants, who I went to jail with for our direct action against Elbit, are refusing to comply with a federal grand jury subpoena likely targeting our imprisoned comrade Fergie Chambers, despite the risk of jail time in contempt of court. By @TheGrayzoneNews:

I caught myself watching this video over and over for several minutes, unable to look away.
I live inside this destruction, yet seeing it from above left me in shock.
All I could think about was how many bombs had fallen on us. I remembered the nights when I was so exhausted that I would cover my ears just to fall asleep through the deafening explosions.
And somehow, we are still here. 💔
