Genocide

We Have To Mobilize In Even Greater Numbers Than Ever Before

April 2, 2025 Natalia Marques, People's Dispatch. , , , , , , ,
As the Trump administration escalates attacks on the pro-Palestine student movement and Israel continues the genocide in Gaza in full force, thousands are expected to partake in a mass demonstration for Palestine on April 5 in Washington DC, undeterred by repression. Trump’s Secretary of State Marco Rubio has announced that he has signed off on the revocation of over 300 student visas for reasons related to pro-Palestine protest activity, raising alarms about free speech violations. We do it every day. Every time I find one of these lunatics, I take away their visa,” Rubio said at a press conference in Guyana on Thursday.

They’re All Going to Hell For The Genocide Of Gaza

April 2, 2025 Colonel (Ret) Ann Wright, Popular Resistance. , , ,
Every single one of them ….who participated in the US and Israeli genocide of Gaza …..are going to hell! I’m not much of a believer in hell but I sure as hell hope there is one now... because a lot of people need to go there. What the Israeli politicians and military have done to Gaza with the complicity of United States Presidents, the US Congress and US military is deserving of going to hell!! I hope every one of the souls of the children killed by US bombs dropped by the Israeli military will visit every one of the perpetrators of the genocide of the Palestinians in Gaza. 

Government Forces Carry Out New Civilian Executions In Syria’s Coast

April 1, 2025 News Desk, The Cradle. , , , ,
At least six people were killed and several others from the Alawite community were wounded on 31 March in a new civilian massacre in Harf B-Nimra village, located in Syria's Tartous governorate. According to local reports, armed men wearing military uniforms entered the village in Baniyas countryside and executed the Mukhtar (the village elder), his son, and five other men. “The gunmen set off from Al-Desaynah base, a former camp of the [disbanded Syrian Arab Army], in Baniyas countryside. The attackers carried out that attack and returned to the base where forces of the ministries of defense and interior are stationed,” the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) reported on Monday.

Schools Are No Place For The ADL

March 31, 2025 Adam Sanchez and Marcy Winograd, Scheer Post. , , , ,
Although the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) has long portrayed itself as a champion of civil rights, this has been undermined by its unconditional support for Israel and its efforts to weaponize antisemitism against Israel’s critics. As those fighting racism increasingly embrace the cause for Palestinian human rights, the ADL has moved further away from its commitment to racial justice. As a former ADL education director Danielle Bryant wrote in the New York Daily News: I watched from the inside as the ADL erased racial justice from its civil rights priorities, caved to pressure from conservative media for being “too woke,” and quietly abandoned core education programs. The shift began with an internal pause on its use of the word “racism”. . . .

Alawites And Christians: Behind Syria’s Silent, Sectarian Slaughter

March 31, 2025 Hamide Rencus, The Cradle. , , , , ,
The massacres and repression of Alawites and Christians in Syria began immediately after the fall of Damascus and have continued for the past three and a half months. On 7 December 2024, the day after the capital city fell to Idlib-based militants, Israel began bombing Syrian territory and deployed tanks into the country's south. Yet the barrels of Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) and its affiliated Salafi extremist groups – who had taken control of Damascus – were not pointed at Israel, but at Syria's Alawite population. What began as attacks on Alawite and Christian religious sites quickly turned into the systematic slaughter of Alawites.

The Far-Right Hate Group Helping Trump Deport Israel’s Critics

March 26, 2025 Alan MacLeod, MintPress News. , , , , , , , ,
A far-right, pro-Israel group with a history of support for terror and genocide is working closely with the Trump administration, preparing dossiers on thousands of pro-Palestine figures it wants deported from the United States. Betar U.S. is known to have had several meetings with senior government officials and has claimed credit for the arrest and detention of Mahmoud Khalil, a leader of the nationwide anti-genocide student demonstrations that began at Columbia University last year. Ross Glick, the group’s executive director until last month, noted that he met with a diverse set of influential lawmakers, including Democratic senator John Fetterman and aides to the Republican senators Ted Cruz and James Lankford.

‘I Will Wear My Persona Non Grata As A Badge Of Dignity’

March 26, 2025 Pavan Kulkarni, People's Dispatch. , , , , , , , ,
Cheering crowds thronged outside the Cape Town International Airport on Sunday, March 23, to welcome the South African ambassador expelled from the US after being subjected to repeated attacks for his stance in solidarity with Palestine. “Ebrahim Rasool is a race-baiting politician who hates America,” US State Secretary Marco Rubio accused in a X post on March 15. “We have nothing to discuss with him and so he is considered PERSONA NON-GRATA,” Rubio added, sharing the alt-right Breitbart News report on the academic observations Rasool had made on the white supremacist character of the “MAGA movement” in a webinar hosted by a South African think tank.

Chris Hedges: The Last Chapter Of The Genocide

March 23, 2025 Chris Hedges, Scheer Post. , , ,
This is the last chapter of the genocide. It is the final, blood-soaked push to drive the Palestinians from Gaza. No food. No medicine. No shelter. No clean water. No electricity. Israel is swiftly turning Gaza into a Dantesque cauldron of human misery where Palestinians are being killed in their hundreds and soon, again, in their thousands and tens of thousands, or they will be forced out never to return. The final chapter marks the end of Israeli lies. The lie of the two-state solution. The lie that Israel respects the laws of war that protect civilians. The lie that Israel bombs hospitals and schools only because they are used as staging areas by Hamas.

March 23, 2025 People's Dispatch. , , , , , , , ,
A new documentary chronicling the Gaza Solidarity Encampment at Columbia University will premier at the CPH:DOX Film Festival in Copenhagen on March 25, 2025. “The Encampments,” a film produced by BreakThrough News and Watermelon Pictures, “challenges the dominant media narrative by revealing the true spirit of the encampments—what it felt like to be there, the emotions that fueled the students, and what motivated their drastic action,” said directors Kei Pritsker and Michael T Workman. The film was produced by nonprofit media organization BreakThrough News, Grammy-award winning musician Macklemore, and Watermelon Pictures, a production company focusing on Palestinian-centered films.

The Masar Badil movement called for escalation of all forms of popular actions and mobilizations in supoort of the Palestinian people in Europe, North America and South America, developing the global popular movement against Zionist-imperialist genocide in Palestine, and confronting the brutal crimes and aggression against our people in the besieged Gaza Strip.

Four Reasons Why Ethnic Cleansing Of The West Bank Is Being Accepted

March 22, 2025 Qassam Muaddi, Mondoweiss. , , , ,
Earlier this week, while Israeli warplanes were resuming their carpet bombing campaign in Gaza, Israel also expanded its offensive on the West Bank, this time reaching the al-Ain refugee camp west of Nablus. Israeli forces entered the camp in the early hours of Wednesday morning when an undercover Israeli force opened fire on a vehicle, killing its driver, Odai Qatouni, and confiscated his body. Israeli forces took over several houses and used them as military positions for 14 hours, forcing some 10 Palestinian families to leave their homes.

Syria’s Genocide, Claiming Over 10,000 Lives, Is Not A Sectarian Conflict

March 22, 2025 Fiorella Isabel, Orinoco Tribune. , , , , , , , , ,
Syria’s massacres that can be defined by nothing less than genocide have exceeded in the slaughter of over 10,000 dead souls. The last few days flooded with videos and images of the endless public, mass executions of children, women, civilians, and entire families, have shown that the world is willing to watch yet another genocide unfold with most of the international media and the international community silent, excusing or down-playing the Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham’s (HTS) terrorist ethnic cleansing of Syrians. As Israel once again strikes Gaza killing over 400 people, with the full backing of the Trump administration.

Nationwide Protests In India Condemn Israel’s Crimes

March 22, 2025 Abdul Rahman, People's Dispatch , , , , , , , ,
Progressive groups in India held a national day of protest against Israel’s grave violations of the ceasefire in Gaza. The protestors also demanded the Indian government take a more assertive stand on the issue and stop indirectly aiding Israel’s criminal activities. The day of action was organized by the Palestine Solidarity Organization, a platform with participation from most of the left parties as well as student, women, and trade union organizations. The central protest was organized in New Delhi where participants carried posters and banners denouncing Israel’s continued genocide in Gaza.

Shipping Giant Maersk Votes Against Ceasing Arms Shipments To Israel

March 21, 2025 Natalia Marques, People's Dispatch. , , , , , , ,
Danish shipping company Maersk, responsible for transporting hundreds of millions of dollars worth of weapons to Israel since October 7, 2023, voted on Tuesday in its annual general shareholder meeting against resolutions that would have halted arms shipments to Israel. The vote comes in the wake of Israel’s resumption of the genocide in Gaza. The day of the vote was also marked with a wave of global protest, as part of a day of action called by the the international “Mask off Maersk” campaign launched by the Palestinian Youth Movement (PYM), with the intent of continuing to put pressure on the shipping giant to cease its role in Israeli genocide.

Israel’s Most Explicit Statement Of Genocidal Intent

March 20, 2025 Caitlin Johnstone, Consortium News. , , , , ,
The Israeli defense minister is simply following Trump’s position and reiterating what everyone who isn’t a blinkered partisan hack knew Trump was saying two weeks ago. He is doing this in exactly the same way Benjamin Netanyahu followed Trump’s position on ethnically cleansing Gaza last month by enthusiastically endorsing the plan Trump put forward to permanently remove all Palestinians from the enclave. Trump puts forward the plan, and Israeli officials put it into action. So you’ve got both the U.S. and Israeli governments openly threatening the entire population of the Gaza strip with the war crime of collective punishment if they don’t somehow kick Hamas out of Gaza, and additionally announcing the intent to inflict “total devastation” upon that population if they do not.
