Film On Gaza Solidarity Encampments Launched Amid Crackdown On Activism

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.

Call For Global Action On The International Al-Quds Day, March 28

Jaldia Abubakra, member of the Executive Committee of the Masar Badil, the Palestinian Alternative Revolutionary Path Movement, called for broad popular participation to confront the crimes of the Zionist enemy through the activities on Al-Quds Day, the last Friday of the month of Ramadan, falling this year on March 28. 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

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

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

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

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

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.

Right To Free Speech Curtailed On Cornell Campus

On March 10, we as members of the Ithaca community joined with Cornell students and allies to exercise our First Amendment right to protest on behalf of the Palestinians in Gaza, who are the victims of genocide at the hands of the Israeli Occupation Forces. We and multiple students were arrested on the orders of Cornell’s president, self-proclaimed 1st Amendment champion Michael Kotlikoff. His office had invited a panel comprised of war criminals and genocide enablers from the US and Israeli government, with a token former Palestinian government official who had a <25% approval rating by Palestinians, under the guise of discussing "pathways to peace".

Maersk Shareholders To Vote On Banning Israel Arms Transfers

Shareholders in Danish shipping giant Maersk are set to hold a vote on 18 March for a proposal to cease weapons shipments to Israel for as long as it is waging war on Gaza. The vote comes as Israel has renewed its genocidal campaign against the strip, killing over 420 Palestinians since early Tuesday morning. Weapons transfers to Israel are “in violation of international conventions, assuming that military equipment, weapons, and components were used in Israeli army operations where international conventions are breached,” shareholder Zen Donen told AFP.

I Resigned 22 Years Ago From The Government Over The Bush War On Iraq

22 years ago, on March 19, 2003, I resigned from the US Department of State. I was the Deputy chief of mission at the US Embassy in Ulaan Baatar, Mongolia and the third U.S. government employee to resign in opposition to the U.S. war on Iraq.  I resigned on the day the Bush administration began the 10-year U.S. war on Iraq, March 19, 2003.  President Bush, like the presidents before and after him, lied. His specific lie was about the reason for the U.S. to attack and kill hundreds of thousands of Iraqis.  In 2003, Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld and Powell’s lie was about Iraq having weapons of mass destruction when international weapons inspectors were very clear in their statements that after their exhaustive investigation there were no weapons of mass destruction.

Israel Unleashes Bloody Gaza Bombardment, Killing Hundreds

Israel killed more than 400 Palestinians, including over 100 children, in one of the bloodiest bombardments of the Gaza Strip early on Tuesday, unilaterally ending its ceasefire with Hamas. Air strikes began hitting all five Gaza municipalities from north to south at around 3am local time (12am GMT) on the 18th day of the holy month of Ramadan. Footage broadcast by Al Jazeera showed children and babies among those killed and wounded. At least 413 people were killed and 660 wounded, according to the Palestinian health ministry.

Ansar Allah Warns Of ‘Escalatory Options’ After US Airstrikes

At least 53 people, including a number of women and children, were killed and dozens of others injured in a series of airstrikes launched by the US on multiple locations across Yemen on Saturday, March 15, according to Yemen’s Health Ministry. The US aggression was launched on the order of President Donald Trump, who announced via his Truth Social account on Saturday, that it aimed at “protecting US shipping, air, and naval assets and to restore navigation freedom” from Ansar Allah’s attacks. “Our brave Warfighters are right now carrying out aerial attacks on the terrorists’ bases, leaders, and missile defenses to protect American shipping, air, and naval assets, and to restore Navigational Freedom,” Trump’s post reads.

Yemen Targets USS Harry Truman Twice In 24 Hours

The Yemeni Armed Forces (YAF) targeted Washington’s aircraft carrier the USS Harry Truman twice in 24 hours, in response to the deadly US–British attack against Yemen over the weekend. “For the second time within 24 hours, the American aircraft carrier USS Harry Truman was targeted in the northern Red Sea with a number of ballistic and cruise missiles and drones in a clash that lasted for several hours,” the YAF said in a statement early on 17 March. The army said it “succeeded in thwarting a hostile attack that the enemy was preparing to launch against our country,” adding that “its warplanes were forced to return from where they had taken off after a number of missiles and drones were launched at the aircraft carrier and a number of its warships.”

Report Accuses Israel Of Gender-Based, Sexual Violence Against Palestinians

A new report released by the UN’s Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory accuses Israel of systematically employing sexual, reproductive, and gender-based violence against Palestinians during its assault on Gaza. The findings, presented alongside public hearings in Geneva, also highlight the systematic destruction of reproductive healthcare facilities in Gaza and describe a “broader strategy to undermine Palestinian self-determination.” The report finds that Israel’s conduct has amounted to carrying out “genocidal acts” under international law, in addition to war crimes and crimes against humanity.

US Bombs Sanaa As Trump Threatens To ‘Rain Hell’ On Yemen

US and British warplanes launched a new round of airstrikes on a residential neighborhood in the Shuaab district of the Yemeni capital, Sanaa, late on 15 March, killing at least nine civilians and injuring several more. "The explosions were violent and shook the neighborhood like an earthquake. They terrified our women and children," a resident of the area told Reuters. "Our brave Warfighters are right now carrying out aerial attacks on the terrorists’ bases, leaders, and missile defenses to protect American shipping, air, and naval assets and to restore Navigational Freedom,” US President Donald Trump said in a social media post following the attacks.
