Zoharah Simmons’ first trip to Israel and its occupied territories in 1994 got off to an inauspicious start. Born Gwen Robinson in Memphis, Tennessee, the great granddaughter of a slave and a former organizer for the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee who volunteered to work in Mississippi during Freedom Summer, Simmons was hardly unfamiliar with European settler colonialism or the violence that is its motor. She was, however, caught off guard by what she experienced upon her arrival in Tel Aviv as part of a peace delegation with the American Friends Service Committee, a social justice organization founded by the Quakers. First, there was the matter of getting past Israel’s immigration and customs agents.

Gazans Go On Hunger Strike In The Midst Of Famine

Wadea Abu Soud, a reporter for Yemen TV in Gaza and father of four, declared his hunger strike on July 20 alongside two of his colleagues. He says his hunger strike is a message to the world about the famine in Gaza, where most families can’t feed their children. “I am a starving journalist who is attempting to convey the suffering of his starving people,” Abu Soud says. Abu Soud is one of a growing number of journalists and first responders in Gaza who have declared that they are going on hunger strike in the midst of a famine. Their demand is that all of Gaza’s children must be fed. “Our voices are reaching the world,” Abu Soud says. “The occupation has failed to launder its lies to the world.”

New Yorkers Mobilize For Gaza As Protests Grow Around The World

This month has been an especially horrific one in the nearly two-year-long genocide of Gaza. Israel is intentionally starving Gazans, threatening total occupation, and expanding their ethnic cleansing of Palestinian land to the West Bank. But this has all only fueled greater support for the movement for Palestine. The passive sympathy for Palestine which has been growing for a long time has begun to show more publicly. This was apparent in the August 16 rally for Gaza in New York City. The action was initially called by Palestinian Youth Movement and the Party for Socialism and Liberation, groups which have regularly called mobilizations since the start of the genocide.

Twenty-Four US-Allied Nations Urge Israel To Lift All Restrictions On Aid

Twenty-four US-allied nations and three senior EU officials have signed a joint statement calling for Israel to lift all restrictions on aid entering the Gaza Strip, warning that the Israeli-imposed famine has reached “unimaginable levels.” The statement, published by the British Foreign Ministry, comes as Palestinians continue to starve to death every day in Gaza due to the US-backed Israeli blockade. “The humanitarian suffering in Gaza has reached unimaginable levels. Famine is unfolding before our eyes. Urgent action is needed now to halt and reverse starvation. Humanitarian space must be protected, and aid should never be politicized,” the statement reads.

Netanyahu’s Plan To Occupy Gaza Violates World Court Ruling

August 12, 2025 Marjorie Cohn, Scheer Post. Educate! Benjamin Netanyahu, Gaza, Illegal Occupation, International Court of Justice (ICJ), Israel

As the death toll of Palestinians in the Gaza Strip surpasses 61,000 and Israel continues to starve Gazans to death, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu made clear that Israel plans to occupy all of Gaza. When asked in an August 7 appearance on Fox News whether Israel would “take control of all of Gaza,” Netanyahu replied, “We intend to.” The Israeli Occupation Forces say they already control about 75 percent of Gaza. The remaining 25 percent includes Gaza City, Khan Younis, and many neighborhoods and refugee camps in central Gaza. Israel’s occupation of Gaza flies in the face of the July 19 ruling of the International Court of Justice (ICJ, or World Court). I

The Hunt For Anas Al-Sharif’s Killers

By any measure, Anas Al-Sharif should still be alive. On the morning of 10 August 2025, the 28-year-old Al Jazeera Arabic correspondent was doing what he had done since the first days of the Gaza onslaught—reporting from the frontlines, armed only with a camera and a press vest. Outside the main gate of Al Shifa Hospital, in one of the last corners of northern Gaza where journalists could still work, Al-Sharif was filing footage of bombardments that shook the streets around him. Moments later, a missile struck the tent where he and his colleagues were sheltering. Seven people died instantly. Among them: Mohammed Qreiqeh, Ibrahim Zaher, Mohammed Noufal, and Moamen Aliwa—four Al Jazeera journalists who, like Al-Sharif, had refused to stop documenting the Genocide. Mohammed Al-Khaldi, also a journalist who worked for Sahat Media Platform, and Saad Jundiya, a Palestinian civilian who happened to be present in the scene at the time of attack were also killed.

Israel’s Government Issues ‘Death Sentence’ To Remaining Captives

August 10, 2025 Max Blumenthal, The Grayzone. Educate! Al-Qassam Brigades, Benjamin Netanyahu, Gaza, Hamas, Hannibal Directive, Hostages, Israel, Israeli Occupying Forces, Palestine

In June 2024, after Israel’s army slaughtered over 200 civilians in Gaza’s Nuseirat Refugee Camp, including several execution style killings to extricate a hostage, Noa Argamani, the Al-Qassam Brigades announced a new policy: if Israel soldiers came too close to areas where captives were held, the prisoners would lose their lives. Israel’s refusal to heed this policy led to the killing of Hersh Goldberg-Polin and five others just over two months later. Now, in a fit of desperation, after failing to force the hand of Hamas through imposed famine and previous campaigns of military pressure, Israel’s security cabinet has approved plans to ethnically cleanse the whole of Gaza City and occupy urban areas where captives might be located.

600+ Journalists Renew Call To Let Foreign Press Enter Gaza

As Israel prepares for a full occupation of Gaza, foreign journalists have renewed calls to be allowed into the besieged strip. More than 600 journalists and media organizations have signed a petition released Monday by Freedom to Report (FTR) demanding "immediate, unsupervised foreign press access" to Gaza, which they said is "the worst press blackout in modern conflict." "This is not a call to be heard," said the renowned war photographer André Liohn, FTR's founder. "We demand that independent, professional journalists be allowed into Gaza. What's happening today is not only a humanitarian blackout but also an information blackout, and it must end."

Netanyahu Orders Israeli Army To Conquer All Of Gaza

The Israeli war cabinet met on Monday to decide on the next phase of Israel’s war on Gaza. The meeting was reportedly to choose between ending the war in favor of ceasefire talks or expanding it to reoccupy the entire Strip. According to initial unconfirmed reports, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has briefed “friendly journalists” that he has ordered the Israeli army to “conquer Gaza” in the face of opposition from the army’s Chief of Staff, Eyal Zamir. Netanyahu’s office reportedly told N12: “The decision has been made — Israel is going to conquer the Gaza Strip.”

Celebrating Nicaragua’s Gains And Feeling Anguish For Gaza

The image is forever seared in my mind: Francisco was two years old, his thin legs and swollen feet were covered in sores. Straw blond hair stuck to his head as he listlessly nursed from his teenage mother’s breast. He weighed 13 ½ pounds. It was the summer of 1999, and I was weighing babies in Nueva Vida. I’d come to Nicaragua in the aftermath of Hurricane Mitch to help in any way I could through the Jubilee House Community and its project in Nicaragua, the Center for Development in Central America (JHC-CDCA). With its main office located just a mile down the road from the largest Hurricane Mitch resettlement camp in the country, the folks at the JHC-CDCA were busy.

For Media, Trying To Help Gazans Survive Turns Heroes Into Zeroes

August 3, 2025 Jim Naureckas, Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting. Educate! Censorship, Chris Smalls, Freedom Flotilla, Gaza, Media

Last week, Smalls took on another Goliath. As part of the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, he tried to deliver life-saving aid—including food and baby formula—to the people of Gaza, who are suffering from a severe famine deliberately engineered by the Israeli government. The Handala, the ship carrying the aid, was illegally seized in international waters by Israel’s military, and Smalls was singled out for violence, choked and kicked by Israeli soldiers, apparently because he’s Black. Past attempts to deliver humanitarian aid to Gaza have been dealt with even more harshly by Israel: In 2010, 57 activists aboard the aid ship Mavi Marmara were shot—nine of them killed—on their way to Gaza.

Solidarity Statement For Gaza From Wolastoqewi-Mothers, Grandmothers, And Aunties

As Wolastoqewi-Mothers, Grandmothers, and Aunties—keepers of life, memory, and spirit—we speak today not out of anger, but out of deep sorrow and responsibility. Our teachings remind us that every child is sacred, that land is not a possession but a living relative, and that dignity belongs to all peoples, no matter how far from our own homeland they may be. We have long followed a path of non-interference, respecting the sovereignty and self-determination of other nations. This is a principle that has allowed us to survive, to heal, and to remain rooted in our own identity. Yet, there are moments in history when silence becomes too heavy to bear.

Pro-Palestine Activists Target US-Backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation

For days, pro-Palestine protesters in the Washington, DC metropolitan area have organized pickets and rallies to “confront” leaders of the now-infamous Gaza Humanitarian Foundation. On July 25, dozens of protesters gathered outside of the home of GHF’s Interim Executive Director John Acree, banging pots and pans, holding signs that read “our tax $$$ could fund UNRWA and end genocide but Joe + Don choose to fund genocide.” Demonstrators wrote a message in chalk on the asphalt: “WAR CRIMINAL LIVES HERE GOOGLE GHF”.

US Lawmakers Demand Probe Into Gaza Humanitarian Foundation’s ‘Aid Traps’

A group of 92 Democratic US House members has called on Secretary of State Marco Rubio to launch a formal investigation into the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), citing serious concerns about its funding, operational conduct, and role in civilian massacres at aid distribution sites in Gaza. Led by Representative Sean Casten, the lawmakers pointed out GHF's lack of prior humanitarian experience and questioned its suitability to serve as a primary aid delivery mechanism. They urged greater oversight to ensure aid reaches Palestinian civilians safely and in compliance with international standards.

Break The Bonds Campaign Pressures States To Divest From Israel

On July 13, roughly 100 people convened in Military Park in Newark, New Jersey for the launch of Break the Bonds, a new statewide campaign in solidarity with Palestine. Inspired by the BDS Movement — a call from Palestinian civil society organizations to boycott and divest from Israel’s economy — the activists in New Jersey vowed to get their state to divest from Israel Bonds. These bonds, as organizers explained, are direct loans that individuals and institutions make to the Israeli treasury, enabling its ongoing genocide in Gaza and broader oppression of Palestinians.
