Iran Offers Moderate Response To Israeli Aggression

November 6, 2024 Abdul Rahman, People's Dispatch. , , , , ,
Iran offered Israel the opportunity to implement an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and stop killing civilians across the region, if the Zionist state seeks to minimize the impact of the upcoming Iranian retaliation to aggression against the country in the last month. “If they make a revision in their behavior, accept a ceasefire and stop killing the oppressed and innocent people of the region, it could have an effect on the type and intensity of our response,” Iranian president Masoud Pezeshkian said on Sunday, November 3.

November 6, 2024 Craig Mokhiber, Mondoweiss. , , ,
The delay in issuing ICC warrants for Benjamin Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant, followed by the replacement of the presiding judge, has raised serious concerns about the court's functioning and possible machinations behind the scenes.

The People Of Bristol Just Grabbed The Baton From Palestine Action

November 6, 2024 The Canary. , , , , , ,
After a years-long campaign against Israel’s arms manufacturer Elbit Systems by Palestine Action, residents of Bristol have joined in – by blockading the genocide-enabling company’s factory in the city. A group of approximately 40 Bristol residents are currently blockading a weapons factory in North Bristol, UK. At approximately 7am on Wednesday 6 November, protestors arrived outside Elbit Systems with banners and Palestine flags. Protestors have chosen Elbit Systems, an Israeli-based military technology company, because Elbit currently supplies 85% of Israel’s drone fleet and land-based military equipment.

Israel’s Genocide Day 395: Israel Using Hunger As A Weapon Of War

November 5, 2024 Qassam Muaddi, Mondoweiss. , , , , , , , , ,
Israeli internal intelligence arrested four Israelis, one of whom works at Netanyahu’s office, for charges of leaking and falsification of classified documents concerning the ongoing war on Gaza, an Israeli court revealed over the weekend. The fabricated documents allegedly leaked by one of Netanyahu’s aides were falsely attributed to the late Hamas leader, Yahya Sinwar. The revelations of the recent fabrications repudiate Israeli propaganda claims of Hamas’s alleged intransigence in ceasefire negotiations throughout the war, especially during the last round of negotiations over the summer.

‘Gaza Tribunal’ Established To Seek Justice For War Crimes In Gaza

November 5, 2024 Aysu Bicer, Anadolu Agency. , , , ,
A group of academics, intellectuals, human rights advocates, and representatives from the media and civil society organizations gathered in London last week, the capital of the UK, to launch the symbolic “Gaza Tribunal," an independent initiative serving as a "court of humanity and conscience." Led by Richard Falk, a distinguished international law expert and former UN special rapporteur on the occupied Palestinian territories, the tribunal is taking an alternative route to international justice, aiming to spotlight voices from civil society in the examination of abuses following the conflict that escalated after Hamas-led attacks on Israel on Oct. 7, 2023.

Palestine Action Targets Shareholders And Insurers Of Elbit

November 5, 2024 The Canary. , , , ,
Palestine Action has upped the ante over UK-based companies propping up Israel’s ethnic cleansing and genocide in Gaza. This time, the group targeted two different companies – Allianz and BNY Mellon – from two different industries. But the common denominator was their support for the Zionist entity. First, following on from Palestine Action’s concerted actions on Allianz UK offices in October, activists made a return visit to the company’s Glasgow offices, at 58 Waterloo Street, over the weekend. Activists broke glass and sprayed the building red.

The Case For Abandoning The Burning House

November 4, 2024 Joshua Briond, Mondoweiss. , , , , , ,
Currently, the staunchest of Black liberals are demanding their community and its allies disregard the interests of Palestinians by way of voting for their butchers under the guise of sparing Black and other marginalized people from their domestic antagonist, Donald Trump. In doing so they are ignoring the many crises already plaguing these communities, under Democratic leadership on both the state and federal level. 2023 was one of the deadliest years for police violence, homelessness continues to skyrocket, and the Biden administration continued the American presidential legacy of ruthlessly starving, bombing, and destabilizing multiple countries—including Cuba, Palestine, Libya, Somalia, and Lebanon.

The Foreign Ministry of Turkiye sent the UN a letter signed by 52 nations and two organizations calling for a halt in military transfers to Israel, stating the Israeli army is committing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza. Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan called for the arms embargo on Israel while speaking at a news conference in Djibouti on 1 November. While attending the Turkiye–Africa collaboration meeting, Fidan announced that the group letter was sent to the UN and that it must be "repeated at every opportunity that selling arms to Israel means participating in its genocide."

Soldier Who Self-Immolated Wins Sam Adams Award

November 4, 2024 Consortium News. , , , , , ,
The Sam Adams Associates are pleased to announce United States Air Force Senior Airman Aaron Bushnell as the recipient of the 2024 Sam Adams Award for Integrity in Intelligence. Bushnell was a cyber defense operations specialist with the 531st Intelligence Squadron at Joint Base San Antonio-Lackland. He was assigned to the 70th Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance Wing at Fort Meade in Maryland. Senior Airman (SRA) Bushnell martyred himself when he walked up to the Israeli embassy in Washington, D.C., on Feb. 25, 2024, while streaming himself as he approached, and then self-immolated in protest of what Israel is doing to Palestinians, the most extreme form of protest.

Israel’s Ground Invasion Of Lebanon Is Unraveling

November 3, 2024 Robert Inlakesh, MintPress News. , ,
On Oct. 1, Israel announced a limited ground invasion in southern Lebanon. Now, a month and roughly 100 soldier casualties later, Israeli officials appear to be searching for an exit, insisting that their goals have been fulfilled. At the outset, Israeli officials described the ground invasion as “limited, localized, and targeted,” with the stated aim of neutralizing Hezbollah’s ability to fire on northern Israeli settlements. Yet, within days, Tel Aviv mobilized four additional divisions along the southern Lebanon border, signaling a clear escalation in its military engagement.

US Embassy Blocks Iraq-Lebanon Humanitarian Air Bridge

November 3, 2024 News Desk, The Cradle. , , , , , ,
The US embassy in Lebanon has blocked the establishment of a humanitarian air bridge between Baghdad and Beirut, insisting instead that any humanitarian aid for those displaced by the Israeli war be delivered via Jordan “for inspection first,” according to a report by Lebanese daily Al Akhbar. Washington reportedly also threatened Lebanon's national airliner, Middle East Airlines (MEA), with sanctions if its planes were used to transport those wounded by Israel's terror attack that caused communication devices to explode across the country.

101 BBC Journalists Say It Is Biased Against Palestine

November 3, 2024 Jewish Voices for Labour, Scheer Post. , , , ,
The BBC has been accused of bias against Israel but here over 230 people, including 101 BBC journalists have argued that there is a strong bias towards Israel and certainly the Israeli narrative. The letter was sent to the Independent arguing that Broadcaster bias is failing to hold Israel to account. It is noteworthy that only 72 of the 230 signatories felt able to sign openly and this included none of the BBC journalists. Distrust of mainstream media is growing but there is a real need for unbiased reporting. The BBC has previously claimed that the fact it receives complaints from those in support of Israel as well as those in support of Palestine shows its impartiality.

Latin American Governments Pay A Price For Challenging Israel’s Genocide

November 3, 2024 John Perry, CovertAction Magazine. , , , , , , , ,
Governments in Latin America have been at the forefront of opposition to Israel’s genocide in Gaza, and several of those which have done so suddenly face new threats, even including attempted coups. Adrienne Pine, a professor at the California Institute of Integral Studies, said during a recent webinar hosted by the Nicaragua Solidarity Coalition that “anybody who stands with Palestine is going to be attacked in Latin America by the U.S. and by Zionists.” Recent events appear to show the truth of her remarks.

On Vote Shaming, And Lesser Evils

November 2, 2024 Nada Elia, Mondoweiss. , , , , , ,
As the presidential election looms very close, the prospect of a Trump victory is rightly terrifying millions of us. Given this fear, Palestinians and our co-strugglers are being criticized and vote-shamed for persisting in our rejection of Kamala Harris, as we are told that Palestine cannot be the single determining issue as we consider the future of this country. Yet I know I am not speaking only for myself when I say it is not a simple ask to vote for the presidential candidate who has repeatedly refused to address the genocide she is funding in her capacity as vice president, repeatedly refused to listen to the concerns of Arab Americans, and continues to pander debunked accusations of “the pattern of systematic gang rapes of Israeli women by Hamas militants.”

APCO Drop Elbit” [1]. Videos of the action reached millions of people across the world on social media.
