Palestine

Defending A Non-Existent International Law

October 2, 2026 Margaret Kimberley, Black Agenda Report. , , ,
This columnist was honored to be invited to a United Nations High Level Meeting In Defence of International Law called by the Hague Group, which was held on September 25, 2026. Defending and protecting international law is surely a priority for anyone who claims to be concerned about the human rights of all people and the rights of all nations to be truly sovereign. The Hague Group was founded on January 31, 2025, when eight nations: Bolivia, Colombia, Cuba, Honduras, Malaysia, Namibia, Senegal, and South Africa united in The Hague in the Netherlands to take “coordinated legal and diplomatic measures” against Israel’s violations of international law.

Israel Bombs Newly Built Water Desalination Plant In Gaza

September 30, 2026 Niko Georgiades, Unicorn Riot. , , ,
Gaza, Palestine — For nearly two months, Palestinians in Gaza City’s Sheikh Radwan neighborhood had access to water at any time — a welcome sense of stability in the depths of a genocidal war. On Aug. 24, that stability was disrupted by an Israeli airstrike that destroyed the newly built water desalination plant and damaged apartment buildings and tents. Standing next to rubble and forcibly displaced from the airstrikes, Louay Al-Namnam told Unicorn Riot that at least 14 Palestinian families were now looking for “somewhere to live.”

Ulm 5 Trial Dramatizes Germany’s Complicity With Israel’s Genocide

September 29, 2026 Hebh Jamal, Portside. , , , , ,
Nearly fifty years after the infamous Red Army Faction trials, Germany’s maximum-security Stammheim Prison is once again the setting of a high-profile case that calls into question the conduct of the German state. This time, however, the defendants are five international pro-Palestinian activists charged with vandalizing a factory in the German city of Ulm owned by Israeli weapons manufacturer Elbit Systems. On September 8, 2025, the five Berlin-based activists, now known as the Ulm 5, broke into Elbit’s facility and carried out acts of vandalism that they recorded using body cameras and posted online.

Providence Will Vote On First-Of-Its-Kind Divestment Initiative

September 28, 2026 Marianne Dhenin, Next City. , , ,
Voters in Providence, Rhode Island, are set to become the first in the nation to decide on a binding initiative to divest their tax dollars from countries or companies complicit in genocide, war crimes, occupation, or apartheid. The groundbreaking measure will be on the ballot in November thanks to a years-long organizing effort launched in response to Israel’s genocide in Gaza. “We are seeing that across almost all demographics, divestment is popular, and there is broad support for human rights and Palestine solidarity,” says Jackie Goldman

October 30: Dockworkers’ Second Worldwide Antiwar Action

September 27, 2026 World Federation of Trade Unions, Workers World. , , ,
The World Federation of Trade Unions issues a militant, class-oriented and internationalist call to its member organizations and trade unions around the world to make the 2nd International Day of Action of Dockworkers on Oct. 30, 2026, their own cause and support it. The mobilization is taking place at a critical time, as military conflicts are spreading and war fronts are dangerously expanding and becoming interconnected, from Ukraine to the Middle East. The murderous state of Israel, with the support of the U.S., the European Union and NATO, continues its crime against the Palestinian people and escalates its military aggression against Iran and Lebanon, increasing the danger of an even broader conflict.

Remaining Silent

September 26, 2026 Jean Bricmont, Consortium News. , , ,
I am neither Palestinian, Lebanese, nor Iranian; I do not speak Arabic, nor am I Muslim. I have lived my entire life in Europe and the United States, where I know that almost everyone  —  even those who claim to stand in “solidarity with Palestine” — begins any criticism of Israel or its government by “condemning” Hamas, Hezbollah, or the “mullahs’ regime.” I intend to explain why I never subscribe to such condemnations. It is not because I support these movements or their methods; I find the rhetoric of support almost as futile as that of condemnation.

German ‘Anti-Semitism Expert’ Driving Crackdown Is Former Israeli Spy

September 26, 2026 Alan MacLeod, Mintpress News. , , , ,
Munich-based “anti-Semitism expert” organizing political action helping restrict pro-Palestine protests across Germany is a former Israeli spy, MintPress can reveal.  Since October 7, 2023, Guy Katz, professor of international management at Munich University of Applied Sciences, has become one of the leading figures in German politics on the subject of Israel and anti-Semitism. Katz has founded numerous organizations purporting to fight anti-Semitism, spoke in parliament, and worked with police to help them crack down on anti-Israel speech. He is, however, reportedly a former spy for Israeli intelligence outfit, the Mossad.

Spanish Government Dismisses Petition To Halt Fergie Chambers’s Extradition

September 25, 2026 Orinoco Tribune. , , ,
The Council of Ministers of Spain has rejected the request made by the left bloc Sumar to halt the extradition process of the pro-Palestinian activist Fergie Chambers to the US. This was confirmed by the government spokesperson, Elma Saiz, during the press conference held at Moncloa, the government headquarters, on Tuesday, September 22. “The government has done what it is supposed to do at this stage: the continuation of the extradition request has been authorized,” Saiz stated. In a later response she added that in this first phase “it is only necessary to make a formal examination” of the request.

Universities Work With Israel-Linked Arms Giant To Suppress Protests

September 25, 2026 News Desk, The Cradle. , , ,
Thirteen British universities held discussions with BAE Systems, Britain's largest arms manufacturer, about suppressing pro-Palestine protests on their campuses, according to a joint investigation by Liberty Investigates and Al Jazeera, published on 24 September. Emails and internal documents obtained in the investigation revealed the universities plotting with the weapons firm to ramp up security against protesting students and present a united front against those demanding they cut ties with the company. Six of the institutions – the universities of Manchester, Nottingham, Southampton, Birmingham, and Strathclyde, as well as Cranfield University – are classed by BAE as “strategic partners” and together pocket up to $20 million a year from the arms maker under funding agreements.

Western Activism And The Axis Of Resistance

September 23, 2026 Roberta Rivolta, Black Agenda Report. , , , ,
When, on 13 October 2025, Hamas was dragged into signing an agreement that neither "Israel" nor the United States intended to respect, a large portion of the Western pro-Palestinian movement registered it as a victory of its own, given that in the previous month millions of citizens had taken to the streets waving Palestinian flags. Soon, however, it became evident that the treaty, predictably, was not at all aimed at ending the conflict. Rather, it was essentially designed to remove it from the global public eye and, even more significantly, to delegitimize the support Palestine was receiving from its regional allies.

Students Speak Out Against Bill Targeting University Boycotts Of Israel

September 22, 2026 Fight Back! News. , , , ,
New York, NY – On September 18, members of the Students for a Democratic Society at NYU held a speakout as part of a national week of action to oppose the “Protect Economic and Academic Freedom Act” (HR 4795), which was recently passed by the U.S. House of Representatives. If the bill becomes law, it will strip federal funding from universities that divest from the state of Israel. The speakout took place in front of Gould Plaza, the site of the 2024 NYU Palestine Solidarity Encampments. Hundreds of students, faculty and community members rallied during the encampments to demand NYU to divest from Israel and shut down the study-away site at Tel Aviv.

Health Workers Demand Action Against Genocide And Militarization

September 21, 2026 People's Health Dispatch, BreakThrough News. , , , ,
Health is always a prominent topic at Belgium’s ManiFiesta, a two-day festival organized by the Workers’ Party of Belgium (PTB) in the beginning of September. Discussions range from the organization of health services or workshops led by progressive health organizations like Medics for the People (MPLP-GVHV) and Viva Salud. This September, the program covered local priorities such as health coverage and hospital reform – along with Israel’s ongoing assault on Gaza’s healthcare system and the threat of militarization across Europe.

New Action Group, Silence Elbit Drones, Blockades Weapons Factory

September 21, 2026 Silence Elbit Drones, Popular Resistance. , , , , ,
Nine people block all access to an Israeli weapons factory in Shenstone, Staffordshire - launching a new direct action group called 'Silence Elbit Drones'. The name 'Silence Elbit Drones' was inspired by the words "In order to hear the birds, the drones must be silent", which were adapted from a poem by the Palestinian author Marwan Makhoul and read out by Leona Kamio. She said the line out loud from the dock as she, and three others from the Filton 25 were sentenced as terrorists for destroying 40 Israeli weapons, including quadcopter drones, inside Elbit's research and development facility in Filton, Bristol.

NFL’s Azeez Al-Shaair Pays Tribute To Slain Palestinian Girl Wafaa Akila

September 21, 2026 Anushe Engineer, Al Jazeera. , , ,
American football player Azeez Al-Shaair has persisted with his stance on raising awareness about slain Palestinian children by wearing eye black bearing the name of Wafaa Akila, an eight-year-old girl killed by Israeli forces in Gaza, during his latest appearance in the National Football League (NFL). The Houston Texans’ linebacker wore the black tape across his nose during a game against the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday, days after he wore the name of Hind Rajab on his eye black, which led to an $11,941 fine by the NFL as he breached the league’s code of conduct on players’ clothing and equipment during a match against the Buffalo Bills on September 13.

America Sends Bombs: Gaza’s Children Need Pencils

September 20, 2026 Kathy Kelly, LA Progressive. , , , ,
After spending millions of dollars redecorating the White House and transforming D.C. monuments, President Trump approved, on September 15, 2026, an additional 2.8 billion dollar sale of heavy bombs to Israel, including 40,000 one-ton bombs, 20,000 of the 2,000 lb. bombs, and 20,000 bunker-busting penetrator warheads. Israel has used these bombs to destroy homes, families and crucial infrastructure in Gaza, the West Bank, and Lebanon. This latest U.S. weapons package will replenish Israel’s stockpile of bombs that human rights groups have condemned after documenting their use over the past two and a half years to kill, maim, bereave, and forcibly displace Palestinians.
