Lawsuit Implores International Court To Halt US Funding Of Gaza Genocide

September 11, 2025 Brenda Ryan, Workers' World. , , , ,
Taxpayers Against Genocide (TAG) filed a petition in May to the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights requesting that it investigate the United States for its material support of Israel’s war crimes and that it order the U.S. to immediately halt all military aid and weapons transfers to Israel. The grassroots group submitted the petition on behalf of Palestinian Americans with family and close ties to Gaza and other U.S. taxpayers opposed to Washington’s use of public funds to support genocide and crimes against the Palestinians. IACHR is a principle and autonomous organ of the Organization of American States whose mission is to promote and protect human rights in the American hemisphere.

From Royal Air Force Fighter Pilot To Gaza Blockade Buster

September 10, 2025 John McEvoy, Consortium News. , , , ,
A British veteran has joined the largest aid flotilla to Gaza in history and is calling on the Royal Air Force (RAF) to end its intelligence support to Israel. Malcolm Ducker, who served as a fighter pilot in the RAF between 1972 and 1979, is sailing with a flotilla of over 50 boats loaded with aid for Gaza. The initiative is being led by the Global Sumud Flotilla (GSF), a “coalition of everyday people… who believe in human dignity and the power of nonviolent action.” The first boats departed from Spanish ports on Sunday but were briefly delayed due to bad weather. More ships are set to join the flotilla in Tunisia in the coming days before arriving in Gaza in mid-September.

Over 1,800 Prominent Film Figures Launch Boycott Of Israeli Films

September 9, 2025 News Desk, The Cradle. , , , ,
Over 1,800 internationally known actors, directors, and film professionals pledged on 8 September to boycott Israeli film institutions that are “implicated in genocide and apartheid against the Palestinian people.” The pledge, released by Film Workers for Palestine, states, “As filmmakers, actors, industry workers, and institutions, we recognize cinema’s power to shape perceptions. In this urgent crisis, where many governments enable the carnage in Gaza, we must address complicity in this unrelenting horror.” It highlights that the International Criminal Court (ICC) has determined a “plausible risk of genocide” in Gaza and describes Israel’s occupation and apartheid policies as unlawful.

Banksy’s Latest Piece Has Already Been Shut Down

September 9, 2025 Willem Moore, The Canary. , , , , , ,
The street artist Banksy has unveiled a new piece at the Royal Courts of Justice in London. Looking at it, it’s clear he’s making a statement about the how the UK is increasingly using legal means to restrict the right to speak out. Fittingly, the powers-that-be immediately moved to hide his message from public view. Under Keir Starmer, Britain is increasingly keen to tell people what they shouldn’t do. Don’t protest. Don’t oppose the genocide. Don’t even call it a genocide. Don’t look at the Banksy. For the love of god, don’t look at the Banksy!

‘We Will Not Be Silent’: Hearing Stilled Voices Of The Gaza Genocide

September 8, 2025 Kathy Kelly, Palestine Chronicle. , , , , ,
In his last minutes of freedom before the Israeli army arrested him, Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya, clad in a medic’s white coat, walked alone toward two Israeli tanks. His captors awaited him amid the rubble of Gaza’s Kamal Adwan hospital. An artist swiftly created a dramatic poster showing Dr. Safiya striding through the ruins of the hospital he directed. The artist, David Solnit, recently updated the poster’s caption. It now reads: Free Dr. Abu Safiya, Eight months in prison Dec. 27, 2024 – August 27, 2025. Dr. Safiya had already endured agonizing losses at the Kamal Adwan hospital. In late October 2024, an Israeli drone attack killed his son, also a doctor.

Global Sumud Flotilla Advances Towards Tunisia Under ‘Harassment’ Of Surveillance Drones

September 7, 2025 Néstor Prieto Amador, Resumen English. , , , , ,
The Global Sumud Flotilla is advancing towards Gaza and is already sailing towards Tunisia, divided into two large groups. Both expeditions will meet in Tunisia at the end of the week, when they will be joined by another twenty boats in what the organizers consider to be the “largest humanitarian mission in solidarity with Palestine.” Technical problems and bad weather have significantly delayed the flotilla’s schedule, which set sail on August 31 from Barcelona and has so far only been able to cover a handful of nautical miles. Harsh sea conditions forced several boats to be repaired, and after a particularly violent storm on Monday, September 1, the expedition was divided between the ports of Mahón (Menorca) and Barcelona.

Gaza Aid Whistleblower Arrested For Interrupting Senate Hearing

September 7, 2025 Kevin Gosztola, The Dissenter. , , , , , , ,
Two United States military veterans, including a Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) whistleblower, were arrested for interrupting a Senate Foreign Affairs Committee hearing. They said “the U.S. government is complicit” in the Israeli government’s genocide in Gaza and were quickly removed by U.S. Capitol police. GHF whistleblower Anthony Aguilar stood up. “You have an obligation to the Constitution of the United States.” Former U.S. Army intelligence analyst Josephine Guilbeau also spoke up. “Israel is ethnically cleansing Gaza. They’re building a concentration camp!” Senate Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman James Risch declared, “Off to jail,” and when he hear Guilbeau, “Someone else is anxious to go to jail.”

Brooklyn Activists And Residents Are Banding Together Against Genocide

September 6, 2025 Joseph Mogul, Mondoweiss. , , , , , ,
Most New Yorkers are not aware that companies contributing to Israel’s genocide in Gaza operate in their backyard. That is, unless they happen to walk, bike, or drive down Flushing Avenue outside the Brooklyn Navy Yard on a Wednesday afternoon, as I did a month ago—in which case, they are absolutely aware. The campaign Demilitarize Brooklyn Navy Yard (DBNY) organizes weekly noise demos and pickets, demanding the eviction of two companies from the city-owned industrial park on the East River, where 550 businesses are located. Protestors bang drums, blare airhorns, picket, chalk sidewalks, fold zines, and hand out flyers reading: “MEET YOUR NEIGHBORS, EASY AERIAL & CRYE PRECISION, LOCAL WEAPONS MANUFACTURERS IN OUR BACKYARDS.”

Israeli Arms Maker Shuts Site After Sustained Anti-Genocide Protests

September 6, 2025 The Cradle. , , , , , , ,
Israeli arms producer Elbit Systems closed its site in Bristol, UK, after years of protests by Palestine Action, The Guardian reported on 6 September. The facility at the Aztec West business park appeared deserted when the daily visited this week, with only a security guard present outside. Elbit Systems UK, a subsidiary of Israel’s largest arms manufacturer, has leased the site since 2019 under a contract running until 2029. The company did not comment on the status of the facility. The site had been the focus of repeated protests, including one on 1 July, just days before the UK government banned Palestine Action under the 2000 Terrorism Act.

Pro-Palestine Political Prisoners On Hunger Strike Are Dying

September 5, 2025 Calla Mairead Walsh, Counter Punch. , , , , , , ,
Political prisoner T. Hoxha is dying. She is on her 18th day of hunger strike in HMP Peterborough in protest of the prison’s politically-targeted abuses. One of the Filton 24 detained indefinitely under the UK’s “Terrorism Act” while awaiting trial next spring, Hoxha is alleged to have participated in the heroic dismantling of an Elbit Systems weapons factory, causing €1 million in damages. Over two weeks into her strike, Hoxha’s loved ones report that her physical and mental health is deteriorating fast, her hair is falling out, her jaw is in pain, and her brain fog is worsening, while the prison neglects her medical care. Supporters on the outside are organizing a call-in campaign to demand the prison administration give her electrolyte sachets and meet her demands.

Brazilian Oil Workers Join Genoa Dock Workers To Defend Global Sumud Flotilla

September 4, 2025 La Izquierda Diario Argentina, Left Voice. , , , , , , ,
Brazil’s National Federation of Oil Workers (FNP) and its various unions are demanding that the government of Brazilian president Lula guarantee the safety of Brazilian activists aboard the flotilla bound for Palestine. The Global Sumud Flotilla, the largest international humanitarian aid mission in history, is attempting to break the illegal blockade imposed by the Israeli government. In a statement, the union declared: Palestine is a country recognized by Brazil, and access for Brazilian and other civilians must be guaranteed by the Brazilian government. It is unacceptable that an invading force prevents civilians on a humanitarian mission from reaching Gaza to deliver aid to millions of people exposed to famine due to Israeli policy.

Italian Dockworkers Prepared To Strike For The Global Sumud Flotilla

September 3, 2025 Pola Posen, Left Voice. , , , , , ,
On August 31, 2025, the Global Sumud Flotilla set sail. This flotilla is the most recent and largest coalition of activists from around the world who have embarked to reach Gaza, breaking the siege and delivering humanitarian aid, by sea. Israeli officials have threatened that consequences for the activists will be worse than previous ventures, including detaining participants in prisons reserved for state-designated terrorists and seizing the ships to be turned into Israeli police assets. Amidst this escalation, Italian dockworkers in the Port of Genoa are prepared to go on strike to defend the flotilla in an act that would majorly disrupt global shipping. This act shows the decisive role that the working class has to play in the protection of the Flotilla, the defeat of Israel’s genocidal project in Gaza and the expansion of its occupation of the West Bank.

September 3, 2025 Abdul Rahman, People's Dispatch. , , , , , , , ,
The 25th Heads of State Summit of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) concluded in Tianjin, China, on Monday, September 1, with the adoption of the Tianjin declaration, which calls for a peaceful and equitable global governance and increased South-South cooperation. The summit highlighted the “fluid and chaotic global situation” created due to the unilateral actions of some countries in the West. It noted that the fast changing global scenario has a profound effect on all aspects of life. In this context, the SCO adopted a strategy for the development of the block in the next 10 years, reiterating its faith in international law and the UN charter.

People’s Conference For Palestine Draws Thousands Against Genocide

August 31, 2025 Natalia Marques, People's Dispatch. , , ,
The second annual People’s Conference for Palestine opened Friday afternoon, August 29, bringing together thousands of people of conscience in Detroit, Michigan. “Through this conference, I invite all of you to take part in the rich revolutionary tradition of Detroit,” said Nelson Garay, a member of Detroit’s People’s Assembly, a grassroots coalition fighting back against Trump’s policies. “In one voice, let us declare that we will not stand for the dehumanization of the Palestinian people, and we will not stand for anything less than their true liberation from a genocidal, apartheid state.” Taher Dahleh, an organizer with the Palestinian Youth Movement and an activist in the labor movement through his membership in the Communication Workers of America, opened the conference by describing the major milestones in the Palestine solidarity movement since last year.

A Public Call For Accountability At The Harvard Education Publishing Group

August 26, 2025 Open Letter, Mondoweiss. , , , , ,
We, the undersigned scholars, educators, and education practitioners write to express our alarm at the Harvard Education Publishing Group’s (HEPG) cancellation of a special issue on Palestine and Education in the Harvard Educational Review (HER). Such censorship is an attempt to silence the academic examination of the genocide, starvation and dehumanisation of Palestinian people by the state of Israel and its allies. As reported by The Guardian, contributing authors of the special issue were informed late into the process that the publisher intended to subject all articles to a legal review by Harvard University’s Office of General Counsel. In response to this extraordinary move, the twenty-one contributing authors submitted a joint letter to both HEPG and HER, protesting this process as a contractual breach that violated their academic freedom.
