Palestine Action Sh*t – Quite Literally – On Elbit’s Drone Operations

April 14, 2025 The Canary. Resist! Direct Action, Elbit, Israel, Palestine, Palestine Action, Palestine Solidarity

In a co-ordinated pair of actions striking at the operations in Britain of Israel’s largest weapons company, Palestine Action have shut down operations at Elbit Systems’ Leicester drone factory and are occupying Elbit’s Bristol insurers.Returning to the Leicester site once again after years of occupations, blockades, and disruption, two activists have today delivered a truckload of manure and scrap furniture to the factory gates and secured themselves inside the vehicle. The pile of excrement and ongoing obstruction is serving to blockade the site, halting operations as all access is prevented. The ‘UAV Tactical Systems’ (U-TacS) plant, which is a major exporter of military drones to Israel, has thus been forced shut.

Israel Is About To Empty Gaza

April 13, 2025 Chris Hedges, Scheer Post. Educate! Displacement, Gaza, Genocide, Israel, Palestine

Israel is poised to carry out the largest campaign of ethnic cleansing since the end of World War II. Since March 2, it has blocked all food and humanitarian aid into Gaza and cut off electricity, so that the last water desalination plant no longer functions. The Israeli military has seized half of the territory — Gaza is 25 miles long and four to five miles wide — and placed two-thirds of Gaza under displacement orders, rendered “no-go zones,” including the border town of Rafah, which is encircled by Israeli troops. On Friday Defence Minister Israel Katz announced that Israel will “intensify” the war against Hamas and use “all military and civilian pressure, including evacuation of the Gaza population south and implementing United States President [Donald] Trump’s voluntary migration plan for Gaza residents.”

50 Years Since Lebanese Civil War, Palestinian Refugees Cling To Hope

April 13, 2025 Sabah Haider, Mondoweiss. Strategize! Decolonization, History, Israel, Lebanon, Palestine

On April 13, 1975, a busload of Palestinian civilians was ambushed in Ain al-Rummaneh, a predominantly Maronite Christian neighborhood in East Beirut, by Phalangist militiamen who committed a massacre. That moment, often cited as the spark of the Lebanese Civil War, did not emerge from a vacuum — it followed years of tension between the Lebanese state, sectarian militias, and the growing Palestinian armed presence in Lebanon, which started in 1971 when the PLO arrived after being forcibly expelled by the Jordanian state following the events of Black September. Fifty years have passed, and the debate over the role of Palestinians — specifically Palestinian factions under the PLO — in the Lebanese Civil War remains mired in a murky combination of emotions, facts, myths, scapegoating, and to some extent, political erasure.

The Trump administration’s push to deport Palestine activist and former Columbia University student Mahmoud Khalil is based on an accusation of “antisemitism,” according to a source who saw the government’s filing. Facing a court deadline to hand over evidence justifying Khalil’s, the Department of Homeland Security submitted a two-page memo from Secretary of State Marco Rubio citing the Trump administration’s authority to expel noncitizens that have the potential to damage the foreign policy interests of the United States.

Protest At Travis AFB Against US Weapons For Israeli Genocide

April 11, 2025 Rick Sterling, AntiWar.com. Resist! Genocide, Israel, Palestine, US military, weapons

At 7:30 a.m. on April 9, the heavy traffic flow into California’s Travis Air Force Base came to a sudden stop. As they have done numerous times, the “People’s Arms Embargo” blocked the main road into the base. The action this time commemorated the recently deceased long-time peace advocate David Hartsough, one of the co-founders of the Peoples Arms Embargo. With traffic into the base stopped, one angry airman jumped out of his pickup truck and threatened to assault the peaceful protestors. He finally thought better of it and returned to his truck. Other waiting airmen and airwomen were patient and a few indicated support for the protest.

Palestinians across the West Bank observed a general strike on Monday protesting the renewed Israeli genocide in Gaza. The strike was observed in all West Bank cities and towns and joined by all civil society bodies. The Palestinian Teachers’ Union announced the halt of all classes, while the Palestinian Bar Association announced that all lawyers and judges were called to abstain from attending court hearings. The “national and Islamic forces,” the coalition of all Palestinian political parties, also called for the general strike. It was observed by all of Palestinian society in the West Bank, including businesses and public transportation.

Israeli Reservists Dismissed Over Protest Letter Demanding End To War

Around 1,000 Israeli reservist soldiers from the air force have signed a letter of protest demanding the prioritization of returning captives from Gaza over the continuation of the war, which they say is being led for personal and political reasons. Ten percent of the signatories are active reservists, while the others are either retired or no longer in service. “We, reserve and former air force personnel, demand the immediate return of the hostages – even if it requires an immediate cessation of hostilities. At this time, the war serves primarily political and personal interests, not security ones,” reads the letter, published in Hebrew media outlets on 10 April.

The US signaled on 7 April that it is planning to step up its violent campaign of airstrikes on Yemen, which have killed dozens since last month, including women and children. "It's been a bad three weeks for the Houthis, and it's about to get worse," US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said on Monday in the Oval Office, while seated near US President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. “It's been a devastating campaign, whether it's underground facilities, weapons manufacturing, bunkers, troops in the open-air defense assets – we are not going to relent, and it's only to get more unrelenting until the Houthis declare they will stop shooting at our ships,” Hegseth added.

Craig Murray: This Hell

April 8, 2025 Craig Murray, Consortium News. Educate! Collective West, Genocide, Israel, Palestine, State Repression

It is all a part of the same phenomenon. Western governments actively assisting genocide in Gaza; attacks on benefits for the disabled; a deliberate official narrative of Russophobia; rampant Islamophobia boosting the rise of extreme right-wing parties and fueled by government anti-immigrant rhetoric; an incredible accumulation of wealth by the ultra-rich; rampant erosion of freedoms of speech and expression. It is not happenstance that all of this is happening at the same time. It represents a radical shift in Western philosophy. This shift is not simple to trace because anti-intellectualism is an essential part of the new philosophy.

Palestinian Christians Reject US Catholic Bishops Collaboration With Pro-Israel Group

Palestinian Christians are condemning a move by the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) to collaborate with a leading pro-Israel advocacy group on an online tool that aims to define Palestinian resistance as antisemitic. In a letter sent late last month from Kairos Palestine to the USCCB Committee’s head, Bishop Timothy Broglio, sixteen Palestinian Christian leaders representing Catholic, Orthodox and Protestant denominations and church organizations express their deep disappointment regarding the USCCB’s endorsement of the American Jewish Committee’s online resource, Translate Hate.

The Fire This Time

We live in perilous times. The mobilizing passions of fascism are no longer a distant echo of history—they are here, surging through the United States like an electric current. We are in a period of social, ideological, and racial cleansing. First, the notion of government as a democratizing public good and institution of social responsibility—that once held power to account, protected the vulnerable, and nurtured the ideals of justice and collective responsibility—is being methodically destroyed. The common good, once seen as the essence of democratic life, has become the enemy of the neoliberal fascist state. It is not merely being neglected—it is being assaulted, stripped bare, and left to rot in the shadows of privatization, greed, and brutality—the main features of gangster capitalism.

Surveillance, Cybersecurity, And Financial Tech For Mutual Aid

April 7, 2025 Shareable, Grassroots Economic Organizing. Organize! Israel, Mass Surveillance, Mutual Aid, Palestine, Repression, Surveillance

Long before October 7, 2023, Israel has weaponized surveillance and advanced targeting technology against Palestinians. This includes snuffing out dissent and preemptively arresting Palestinians before holding them for years without formal charges, access to legal representation, or sentencing. Similar technologies are now being used in the United States to criminalize dissent, target marginalized communities, and suppress mutual aid efforts. This brings us to the theme of this week’s episode. Today, we’re sharing excerpts from Shareable’s Mutual Aid 101 Learning Series‘ third session.

Trump Is Playing A Dangerous Game With Iran

April 6, 2025 Mitchell Plitnick, Mondoweiss. Educate! Iran, Israel, Trump Administration, Wars and Militarism, West Asia

While Israel continues to ratchet up tension and anger throughout the Arab world with its escalating genocide in Gaza, its thoroughly unprovoked attacks on Lebanon and Syria, and its growing aggression on the West Bank, the United States is playing a very dangerous game with Iran. The U.S. has been bolstering its presence in the Middle East, with deployments hitting record highs in recent weeks. A great deal of equipment seems to have been transferred to American bases in Qatar, Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Jordan.

The US has transferred a second Terminal High Altitude Area Defense System (THAAD) to Israel, Saudi news outlet Al-Hadath reported on 6 April, coming as there have been increasing threats by Washington to attack Iran. The report said the THAAD system arrived in Israel on Saturday. According to flight tracking websites, a US C-5M Super Galaxy transport plane landed at the Nevatim airbase in the Negev, one of the sites targeted by Iran in both of its ballistic missile attacks against Israel last year. The first THAAD system was sent to Israel late last year, along with US troops to operate it.

On the evening of April 2, Daraa province witnessed a violent clash between Syrian armed factions and Israeli occupation forces south of Nawa city, marking the second confrontation of its kind in recent weeks. The clash erupted after Israeli forces attempted to advance into the forested area between Taseel and Al-Jubaylah, coinciding with a Syrian security operation near the Taseel Dam aimed at recovering the body of a drowned child. A tribal source suggested to Al-Akhbar that the Israeli incursion was linked to broader efforts to control regional water resources, coming just two days after “Israel” declared Al-Mantra dam, Southern Syria’s largest dam, a restricted military zone.
