Break The Bonds Campaign Pressures States To Divest From Israel

August 1, 2025 Sam Carliner, Waging Nonviolence. , , , , ,
On July 13, roughly 100 people convened in Military Park in Newark, New Jersey for the launch of Break the Bonds, a new statewide campaign in solidarity with Palestine. Inspired by the BDS Movement — a call from Palestinian civil society organizations to boycott and divest from Israel’s economy — the activists in New Jersey vowed to get their state to divest from Israel Bonds. These bonds, as organizers explained, are direct loans that individuals and institutions make to the Israeli treasury, enabling its ongoing genocide in Gaza and broader oppression of Palestinians.

This morning, the final two Handala volunteers held in Givon Prison–Christian Smalls from the United States and Hatem Aouini from Tunisia–were freed via Jordan’s King Hussein/Allenby Bridge after five days of unlawful imprisonment in occupied Palestine. Both had been on hunger strike to protest mistreatment. Aouini was received by the Tunisian embassy at the border. Despite repeated requests for assistance, neither the U.S. Consulate nor U.S. Embassy officials met Christian at the border, even after being notified in advance of his arrival details.

Belgian Court Bans Military Shipments To Israel In Activist Victory

July 23, 2025 Ana Vračar, People's Dispatch. , , , , , , , , ,
In what could become a landmark ruling, a Belgian judge recently ordered the Flemish government to halt the transit of goods that could be used to continue or expand the genocide in Gaza. The decision follows a joint campaign by four organizations – Intal, Vredesactie (Peace Action), 11.11.11, and the Human Rights League – which was triggered by the discovery of containers in the port of Antwerp addressed to Israeli company Ashot Ashkelon Industries. The containers included materials used for the assembly of Merkava tanks, the same model implicated in the attack that killed six-year-old Hind Rajab.

NEA Leadership Rejects Member Vote To Sever Ties With ADL

July 22, 2025 Sam Carliner, Mondoweiss. , , , , ,
In one of the biggest displays of labor organizing against anti-Palestinian racism, the National Education Association’s (NEA) policymaking body voted on July 5 to cut all ties with the Anti-Defamation League (ADL). The vote was a product of years of grassroots organizing within the NEA. This activity within the union was bolstered by the growth of the Drop The ADL campaign, an initiative by a wide range of progressive organizations to educate communities about the ADL’s anti-Palestinian bias and opposition to free speech in schools.

How Pro-Palestine Activists At Princeton Got Their Charges Dropped

July 22, 2025 Samuel Karlin, Left Voice. , , , , , ,
As the genocide in Gaza continues, imperialist governments that have made Israel’s crimes possible are escalating their attacks on the movement for Palestine. From the targeting of international students to the recent firing of four CUNY faculty over Palestine activism, universities remain an important site of struggle against the genocide. Despite the repression, there have been victories which show that it pays to take up the fight against these attacks on the movement for Palestine. One example is at Princeton University, where 13 activists from the Princeton community recently got charges dropped after more than a year.

The Student Movement For Palestine Continues, Despite Crackdowns

July 15, 2025 Nashwa Bawab, In These Times. , , , ,
The Palestine movement is in an especially difficult phase. The genocide in Gaza has been ongoing for more than 20 months; the death toll has become virtually untrackable, but estimates suggest at least 55,000 people have been killed. In the United States, the movement is facing repression not seen since the height of the war on terror. Empowered by the student movement just a year ago, the moment is now colored by a sense of defeatism and a loss of hope. To discuss where to find hope, where the movement for liberation has made strides and where we go from here, In These Times brought together figures from the student movement globally.

Freedom Flotilla’s Handala Begins Its Journey To Gaza

Siracusa, Italy, July 13, 2025 — Today, the Freedom Flotilla Coalition (FFC) announces that Handala, our civilian aid boat, has officially set sail from Siracusa, Italy and begun its journey to Gaza. This marks a bold step in our ongoing effort to challenge Israel’s illegal, deadly blockade of the Palestinian people in Gaza. The boat carries life-saving humanitarian aid and a message of solidarity from people around the world refusing to stay silent as Gaza is starved, bombed, and buried under rubble. This mission comes just weeks after Israel’s illegal attack on the Madleen, another Freedom Flotilla boat, which was violently seized in international waters.

CUNY Escalates Repression Against Palestine Activism

July 11, 2025 Billie Estrine, Mondoweiss. , , , , ,
In a move that activists are saying is an attempt to quell the passionate student and worker movement for Palestinian liberation within the City University of New York (CUNY), student organizer Hadeeqa Arzoo Malik has been suspended for a year. While she is suspended from CCNY, she is not permitted to enroll in any other CUNY college.  Malik is a courageous organizer and leader of CCNY’s Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) chapter. She has become a public face of the student movement for Palestine in New York City and across the nation since the movement accelerated worldwide to end Israel’s escalated genocide against the Palestinian people in Gaza. 

Faith Leaders Are Standing Up To The Largest Pro-Israel Christian Lobby

At lunchtime on July 1, as the Senate prepared to vote on Trump’s deeply unpopular “Big Beautiful Bill,” the cafeteria line at the Rayburn House Office Building ground to a halt. Where lobbyists and staffers usually rushed through the midday crush, over 100 clergy and faith leaders had gathered in solemn resistance. They linked arms and broke into song with the message: “Congress doesn’t eat ‘til Gaza eats.” At the other end of Capitol Hill, the Dirksen Senate Office Building cafeteria filled with chants and prayerful silence. Within minutes, Capitol Police arrested over 65 people.

UK Blacklists Palestine Action In ‘Grotesque, Chilling’ Move

July 3, 2025 News Desk, The Cradle. , , , , , ,
The British parliament passed a vote on 2 July proscribing the Palestine Action activist group as a terrorist organization, a move strongly condemned by various groups and individuals as “grotesque,” “chilling,” and an “unprecedented legal overreach.” In parliament, 385 voted in favor of the proscription, while 26 voted against it. UK Security Minister Dan Jarvis said in parliament that Palestine Action is not “a legitimate protest group.” “People engaged in lawful protest do not need weapons. People engaged in lawful protest do not throw smoke bombs and fire pyrotechnics around innocent members of the public.

Organizers Plan For Second Annual People’s Conference For Palestine

July 2, 2025 Natalia Marques, People's Dispatch. , , ,
For the second year in a row, Palestinian diaspora and solidarity activists are set to convene in Detroit, Michigan, for the second edition of the People’s Conference for Palestine. Last year in late May, 3,000 pro-Palestine activists met in Detroit for a three-day conference. The conference took place at a historic juncture for the Palestine movement in North America, weeks after the height of the global student movement of “Gaza Solidarity Encampments” and eight months into Israel’s genocide of the Gaza Strip. In this political moment, when global consciousness in solidarity with Palestine reached new heights, leaders in the pro-Palestine movement throughout North America met to review strategy and plan for the future.

Mike Ferner, of Veterans For Peace, threw blood at the US mission to the UN today: “Here, United States, have some blood! You like shedding it all over the world so much? There you go!

Stop it.” He and 28 others were reportedly arrested today. He had been participated in #FastForGaza Most arrests took place at the Israeli mission to the UN where a mass action was. Joy Metzler, co-founder of Servicemembers For Ceasefire, was among those arrested there.

Artists Speak Up Against Genocide In Gaza At Europe’s Music Festivals

June 30, 2025 Ana Vračar, People's Dispatch. , , , , , , , , ,
As Europe’s summer music festival season rolls out, mainstream media and governments are struggling to keep Palestine solidarity off the stage. In its coverage of Glastonbury Festival, the BBC focused on censoring the Irish rap group Kneecap over their staunch pro-Palestinian stance – only to be met by a wave of artists who used their platform to call for a free Palestine and to demand broadcasters share real news about the Israeli genocide in Gaza. Among them was the British duo Bob Vylan, who led the crowd in chanting “Free, free Palestine” and “Death, death to the IDF,” denouncing war crimes committed by the Israeli army, including the starvation of children and the killing of civilians in humanitarian aid lines.

Israel’s War On Gaza: Who Are Palestine Action?

June 25, 2025 Katherine Hearst, Middle East Eye. , , , , ,
The British government is set to ban the direct action group Palestine Action under anti-terror legislation after activists broke into RAF Brize Norton earlier this month and spray-painted two planes. The group said the airbase was targeted because flights leave there daily "for RAF Akrotiri in Cyprus, a base used for military operations in Gaza and across the Middle East". The activists damaged Airbus Voyager aircraft, which carry military cargo and refuel fighter jets and military planes. Home Secretary Yvette Cooper has said she will bring legislation to proscribe the group before Parliament on 30 June.

‘Disarmiamoli!’ Brings 30,000 To Rome Against NATO And War

June 24, 2025 Ana Vracar, People's Dispatch. , , , , , , , , ,
Some 30,000 people took to the streets of Rome on June 21 to protest war and rising military expenditures. Organized under the banner “Disarmiamoli!” (Let’s disarm them!), the demonstration brought together workers, grassroots trade unions, student collectives, and social movements. Protesters condemned the expansion of military budgets across Europe, coming at the direct expense of public services like healthcare, education, and other public services. “Forty billion [euros] more will be gradually handed over to war instead of addressing our real needs, schools, hospitals, emergency services and environmental transition, and social support for those in need,” the Disarmiamoli! network stated ahead of the protest.
