Palestine

The History And Future Of Latin America’s Engagement On Palestine

December 26, 2025 Maria Landi, Mondoweiss. , , ,
I wrote this article when Israel’s genocide in Palestine was in its most ruthless phase (June–July 2025). As I wrote it, I felt rage, helplessness, and despair. I went to bed every night with the accounts of the ongoing horror and woke up in the morning to news of hundreds more dead. I saw corpses wrapped in blankets or shrouds piled up in mass graves and small children with their skulls or chests pierced by bullets, their bodies mutilated or emaciated, ravaged by hunger, dehydration, and infection. Like the millions of people around the world who care deeply for Palestine, over the past two years what has kept me going is an obsessive search for a way to stop this genocide before the Palestinian people are exterminated in their own land.

Christmas Is Not A Western Story; It Is A Palestinian One

December 24, 2025 Rev Dr Munther Isaac, Al Jazeera. , , ,
Every December, much of the Christian world enters a familiar cycle of celebration: carols, lights, decorated trees, consumer frenzy and the warm imagery of a snowy night. In the United States and Europe, public discourse often speaks of “Western Christian values”, or even the vague notion of “Judeo-Christian civilisation”. These phrases have become so common that many assume, almost automatically, that Christianity is inherently a Western religion — an expression of European culture, history and identity. It is not.

Anthony Aguilar Wins Sam Adams Award For Integrity

December 24, 2025 Sam Adams Associates For Integrity In Intelligence, Consortium News. , , , ,
We are honored to give this year’s award to Anthony Aguilar (LTC, USA, ret.) for exposing some of the more egregious brutalities of the genocide in Gaza, including the U.S. role. Asked why he has spoken out about what he witnessed — like the corralling of starving people into four distribution sites and sometimes shooting them indiscriminately. Aguilar explained, when “I hung up my uniform. I didn’t hang up my oath to the Constitution.” A 25-year Army Special Forces veteran, Aguilar agreed to work with the “Gaza Humanitarian Foundation” with the thought that “there is nothing more Christian than feeding the hungry.”

December 24, 2025 News Desk, The Cradle. , , , , ,
Climate activist Greta Thunberg was arrested in central London on 23 December during a demonstration supporting imprisoned Palestine Action members, who doctors warn are at “imminent risk of death,” due to a weeks-long hunger strike. City of London Police detained the 22-year-old under Section 13 of the Terrorism Act 2000 for displaying a placard backing the proscribed organization. Video footage captured by Prisoners for Palestine shows Thunberg holding a sign. It read: "I support the Palestine Action prisoners. I oppose genocide."

Global Sumud Flotilla Announces Launch Of Its Spring 2026 Mission

December 23, 2025 Global Sumud Flotilla. , , ,
The Global Sumud Flotilla (GSF) announces the launch of its Spring 2026 mission, a historic escalation in civilian-led maritime action to break the illegal blockade of Gaza. Moving beyond previous aid delivery efforts, this mission represents a strategic shift toward a sustained civilian presence and the establishment of a replicable model grounded in international law and Palestinian leadership. A primary focus of the 2026 mission is the deployment of a specialized medical fleet. Carrying more than 1,000 healthcare professionals and stocked with life-saving medicines and equipment, this fleet aims to stabilize Gaza's healthcare system and support the efforts of local medical teams who have endured two years of genocide.

Israeli Army Expands Outposts In Gaza; Laying Groundwork For Permanent Occupation

December 22, 2025 News Desk, The Cradle. , , , ,
The Israeli military is preparing to establish a permanent presence inside the Gaza Strip, new satellite imagery released by Forensic Architecture has confirmed. According to Forensic Architecture’s research, Israel is consolidating control over 50 percent of the strip – continuously demolishing civilian infrastructure to make room for new outposts. Since the ceasefire, the Israeli army has built at least 13 new outposts – mainly east of the so-called “Yellow Line,” the perimeter to which Tel Aviv withdrew its forces as part of the agreement.

Embargo Movement Exposes Oakland Airport’s Role In Weapons Shipments To Israel

December 21, 2025 Lallan Schoenstein, Struggle - La Lucha. , , , , , ,
Unions and community organizations demonstrated at the Port of Oakland on Dec. 18 as part of an ongoing campaign to demand an embargo on the shipment of weapons to Israel from both the city’s sea port and air port (OAK). The Palestinian Youth Movement (PYM), in coordination with The People’s Embargo for Palestine (PEP), released a report titled “Exposing Oakland’s Military Cargo Shipments to Israel” last August. They were horrified to discover that Oakland, California, a city with a progressive history of solidarity with Palestine, had become one of the most frequent departure points for shipping F-35 bomber components to Israel.

Campaign Launches To Secure The Release Of Dr Hossam Abu Safiya

December 20, 2025 Middle East Monitor. , , ,
The Palestinian Forum in Britain (PFB) has announced the launch of a new solidarity campaign calling for the release of Dr Hossam Abu Safiya and all Palestinian prisoners held in Israeli occupation prisons. The campaign will take the form of a calm, symbolic action titled the “Red Ribbons Campaign”, to be held on Saturday 20 December at Oxford Circus in central London, at 1:00 pm. The Forum explained that the event is neither a demonstration nor a protest march, but a silent, peaceful act of solidarity. Participants will hang red ribbons and display specially designed posters carrying clear demands for freedom and justice, conveying a humanitarian message to British and international public opinion about the suffering of Palestinian prisoners.

Doctors Warn Lives Of Palestine Action Hunger Strikers ‘At Risk’

December 19, 2025 News Desk, The Cradle. , , , , , ,
Medical professionals in the UK have warned that eight Palestine Action activists held in British prisons are at "imminent risk of death," with concerns raised publicly during a press conference in south London on 18 December. Emergency physician and University College London lecturer Dr. James Smith said the detainees’ condition has sharply deteriorated and told reporters that “the hunger strikers are dying." Smith said accounts from inside the prison system point to “substandard monitoring and treatment." “It is my view, as an NHS doctor, that the complexity of the hunger strikers’ care needs must now be managed with regular specialist input if not continuous monitoring in hospital,” he said.

Elbit Factory Shut Down For A Second Time In Two Weeks

December 19, 2025 The Canary. , , , , ,
A group of protesters have shut down the entrance to a factory belonging to Elbit Systems. The halt of Israel’s weapons supplier is one of the key demands of the anti-genocide activists. Eight prisoners, all being held on remand for allegedly taking action in solidarity with Palestine, have been on open ended hunger strike since the 2 November in British prisons. This is the biggest coordinated prison hunger strike in UK prisons since the 1981 H-block strike in the North of Ireland. Six of the hunger strikers have been hospitalised so far. Despite the enormity of the strike, the media coverage has been minimal, and the government fails to respond.

Holiday Shoppers Are Flexing Political Power Through Boycotts

December 19, 2025 Victoria Valenzuela, Waging Nonviolence. , , , , ,
For 38 weeks straight, racial justice protesters have been gathering outside a Target in Washington, D.C. to call out the company for suspending its Diversity, Equity and Inclusion efforts, aligning itself with the Trump administration’s attacks on DEI. To put additional pressure on the company, those advocates have been calling for “Target fasts,” in which people completely abstain from purchasing anything from Target. The boycott began in February, following Target’s suspension of DEI efforts, and was initiated by Until Freedom, a nonprofit organization dedicated to community activism and rapid response.

Rebranding Genocide

December 16, 2025 Chris Hedges, Scheer Post. , , ,
First, it was Israel’s right to defend itself. Then it was a war, even though, by Israel’s own military intelligence database, 83 percent of the casualties were civilians. The 2.3 million Palestinians in Gaza, living under an Israeli air, land and sea blockade, have no army, air force, no mechanized units, no tanks, no navy, no missiles, no heavy artillery, no fleets of killer drones, no sophisticated tracking systems to map all movements, or an ally like the United States, which has given Israel at least $21.7 billion in military aid since Oct. 7, 2023.

How Corporate Platforms Are Suppressing Artists Who Dissent

December 15, 2025 Margaret Flowers, Clearing the FOG. , , , , , , ,
David Rovics is an activist musician who composes songs that educate about historical events, provide political analysis about current events, and raise up people from social movements. His solidarity with Palestinian liberation is deep, spanning his entire musical career. Recently, his entire 50-album catalog on YouTube Music was deleted. Clearing the FOG speaks with Rovics about the retaliation he has faced, some of his recent songs, how platforms like Spotify and YouTube are impacting the music industry, his artificial intelligence band, Ai Tsuno, and calls to boycott Spotify.

Israel’s Expanding ‘Yellow Line’ Swallows Gaza Districts

December 13, 2025 Maha Hussaini, Middle East Eye. , , , , , ,
When Ahmed Hamed returned to his home in Gaza City after the ceasefire, it stood about 1.5km west of the so-called “Yellow Line” enforced by Israel. Two months on, that distance has shrunk to roughly 200 metres. “Before the war ended, our home was in a dangerous area, and it was difficult for us to return,” the 31-year-old Palestinian journalist told Middle East Eye. “We waited two weeks after the ceasefire to make sure it was safe.” Eventually, the family went back to their house near the Shujaiya neighbourhood in eastern Gaza City. Almost immediately, the sounds of war returned with them.

Chris Hedges Report: The Encampments

December 12, 2025 Chris Hedges, Scheer Post. , , , , , , , ,
The ongoing genocide in Gaza has become a litmus test of institutional integrity. When a university denies the reality of Israel’s brutality, it reveals complicity with the genocidal regime’s actions. To then misrepresent campus dissent over institutional investment in the Zionist entity as illegitimate — or even “antisemitic” — makes it clear that that these institutions are invested in the existence of Israeli apartheid and genocide.
