25 Highly Respected Organizations Say Israel’s Committing Genocide

We all have someone in our life who still refuses to believe Israel is committing genocide. They might say “I don’t like what’s going on there.” Or “I don’t agree with Netanyahu.” Or “war is always ugly”. But they refuse to use the word “genocide.” It might be your mom or your dad or your aunt or your dental hygienist. It might be all of them. That’s why I wanted to write this article for anyone to share. The 25 organizations on the following list are not radical or “fringe,” whatever that means. They are all highly regarded.

FBI Allegedly Targeted Filipino American Journalist Now In Detention

Filipino American journalist Ya'akub Vijandre was allegedly targeted by the FBI in retaliation for his refusal to become an informant. The FBI reviewed Vijandre’s immigration record and social media posts, and then recommended that immigration services terminate his DACA status, according to Vijandre’s attorneys.  Vijandre is currently detained at a for-profit ICE detention center in Folkston, Georgia, operated by GEO Group. He was arrested “at gunpoint” outside his home in Arlington, Texas, on October 7, 2025.  The United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) pointed to his reporting on pro-Palestinian protests and various cases in the “global war on terrorism” to justify their actions.

Protests Continue As Court Prepares To Review Palestine Action Ban

More than 2,350 people have been arrested since the British government banned the direct-action group Palestine Action earlier this year, including over 250 detained during peaceful protests this month alone. Since the proscription in July, people across the country have mobilized against the government’s repression of Palestine solidarity, intensifying their activities ahead of a legal review of the ban scheduled to begin on Wednesday, November 26. Between November 18 and 29, sign-holding protests are expected in 18 locations across Britain. Several spots in London were chosen for their relevance to the crackdown on Palestine Action and related attacks on free expression, the network Defend Our Juries explained in its announcement.

For Supporting Trump’s Gaza Plan, Arab States Cash In

The ceasefire agreement that came into effect last month has revealed the contours of Israel-Arab relations, and the political leverage Arab states hold in Washington. It also underscored that Israel could not have achieved its military gains in the region, nor carried out the genocide in Gaza, without cooperation and political cover from several Arab states. Since the outset, these states have sought to extract political and strategic advantages from the devastation. The Saudi crown prince's White House visit last week further reflected this strategy.

After The Ceasefire: What Next For Global Solidarity With Palestine?

Despite Hamas and Israel agreeing on a ceasefire on October 10, the genocide in the Gaza Strip has only slowed down. United States President Donald Trump’s “peace plan” does not address the Israeli structural violence that still exists against Palestinians, and there has been no real movement or action from governments to hold the architects of the genocide accountable for their crimes. Although the daily massacres – averaging about 100 Palestinians in the Gaza Strip – have lessened, the mechanisms of oppression are still firmly in place: the territory remains blockaded, and Israeli aerial and artillery attacks persist with minimal resistance from world governments.

Report: Trump-Led ‘Board Of Peace’ Considers ‘Expropriating’ Gaza Land

Following the passage of a UN resolution authorizing the US plan for post-war Gaza, President Donald Trump's so-called "Board of Peace" is considering 'expropriating" land from Palestinian owners displaced from the Israeli-controlled half of the strip, Haaretz reported on 23 November. Citing US officials and diplomats, the Israeli newspaper said the Board of Peace, headed by Trump, would be a "cornerstone" of the US plan for Gaza. "As outlined in the United Nations Security Council resolution adopted this week, the Board of Peace will coordinate the delivery of humanitarian assistance and facilitate Gaza's development," one US official said.

International Israeli Occupying Forces Volunteers: Today’s ‘Sniper Tourists’

“I think those are bullet holes.” Those were the first words I muttered to my classmate on the bus into Sarajevo, Bosnia, during a brief visit in 2019. We had flown in from Frankfurt, Germany, as part of a study abroad program researching the interactions between the European Union (EU) and the post-Yugoslav and post-Soviet spheres. The program, as we quickly learned, amounted more to a lesson in how the German-dominated EU exploited the people of former communist projects for its own economic gain. Still, in the moment, all we could think of was how beautiful and, at the same time, damaged the city we were entering truly was.

The Ongoing Battle Over Israel Within The US Labor Movement

This year, on the eve of International Workers’ Day, General Federation of Trade Unions in Gaza, published a call to the U.S. labor movement. “This war would not have been possible without the unlimited U.S. support for the occupation, whether through military funding, political and diplomatic backing, or arms deals that kill our children, women, and elderly every day,” it read. “The U.S. administration under Trump has continued what the previous administration started, becoming a direct accomplice in genocide, ignoring the voices of millions inside and outside of the United States, and an overwhelming majority of the nation, who reject this brutal aggression.”

Security Council Shamefully Grants Colonial Domination Over Palestine

In 1947, the United Nations General Assembly committed the UN’s original sin when it partitioned Palestine to create Israel. This launched the Nakba, the ethnic cleansing of the Indigenous people, and the establishment of a settler colonial state. Now, 78 years later, the UN Security Council has committed the UN’s second cardinal sin. It enshrined Israel’s illegal occupation of Palestinian lands, put its imprimatur on Israel’s genocide, and granted colonial control over the lives of the Palestinians to the United States, which has aided and abetted the genocide.

Did Germany Mislead The World Court?

Since April 2024, Germany has been on trial before the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in The Hague. Nicaragua had filed a case against the Federal Republic, accusing it of complicity in the genocide in Gaza. As has now become known, German representatives may have made false statements in their very first testimony before the ICJ in April 2024, concerning the arms exports delivered to Israel. As Drop Site News (DSN) and the liberal German magazine Stern reported in a joint article, there are now serious doubts about Germany’s statements. They cite comments from the German Defense Ministry, obtained through a press law procedure before a German administrative court.

Saudi Arabia Just Said No To Israel And The United States

The United States is trying to shape the Middle East in the image it wants. From pushing through its plan for Gaza at the United Nations, to pulling Syria and Saudi Arabia closer into its orbit, President Trump may soon get the Middle East that he desires. However, he will not get it all his own way, as forces from Iran, Yemen, and across the region still oppose Trump’s plans and fight against it. All the while, Israel continues to expand its control of its neighbors. This week, it has been stepping up bombing campaigns against targets in Lebanon from its bases in the occupied south of the country.

Breaking Out Of Media Group-Think

The past two years have seen a catastrophic failure by Western journalists to report properly what amounts to an undoubted genocide in Gaza. This has been a low point even by the dismal standards set by our profession, and further reason why audiences continue to distrust us in ever greater numbers. There is a comforting argument — comforting especially for those journalists who have failed so scandalously during this period — that seeks to explain, and excuse, this failure. Israel’s exclusion of Western reporters, so the claim goes, has made it impossible to determine exactly what is occurring on the ground in Gaza.

Report: US Mercenary Firm Behind Aid Massacres Returning To Gaza

UG Solutions, a US military subcontractor that guarded Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) aid sites, is ramping up recruitment for a new deployment as plans advance for 12 to 15 distribution locations to reopen in Gaza next month, Drop Site News reported on 19 November. A former US Army officer, who spoke anonymously citing security concerns, said a UG Solutions recruiter told him in late October that the company “was going to need a lot more guys” for a Gaza operation expected to begin in early to mid-December. The officer was offered $800 per day for static guard duty and $1,000 for mobile roles, plus a steady allowance of $180 per day.

Palestinians Will Not Let The Genocide Kill Their Hopes

In the United Nations’ Humanitarian Situation Update #340 on the Gaza Strip (12 November 2025), there is a section on the distress experienced by more than 1 million Palestinian children in Gaza. The most common symptoms among children reported in the assessment are ‘aggressive behaviour (93 per cent), violence toward younger children (90 per cent), sadness and withdrawal (86 per cent), sleep disturbances (79 per cent), and education avoidance (69 per cent)’. Children account for about half the population in Gaza, where the median age is 19.6 years.

The United Nations Embraces Colonialism

More than two years into the genocide in Palestine, the UN Security Council has finally acted. But rather than acting to enforce international law, protect the victims, and hold the perpetrators accountable, it adopted a resolution that openly flouts key provisions of international law, disempowers and further punishes the victims, and rewards and empowers the perpetrators.  Most disturbingly, it hands control of Gaza and the survivors of the genocide over to the United States, a co-perpetrator of the genocide, and provides for the participation of the Israeli regime in decision making.
