Months ago, the Biden administration issued a directive prohibiting arms transfer deals to countries that would likely use the weapons to target civilians. Yet the White House is still approving military aid for Israel’s war crimes in Gaza.
France has issued a blanket ban on pro-Palestine rallies in the name of preempting potential antisemitism. In a witch-hunt atmosphere, all who refuse to give unconditional support for Israel’s looming invasion of Gaza are treated as “pro-terrorist.”
The war in Gaza has emboldened settlers in the West Bank. In five accounts from the occupied territory, Palestinians speak of terrifying, ever-present settler violence — beatings, killings, house raids — backed up by the Israeli military.
Donald Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner has sealed a $1.4 billion deal to redevelop Albania’s largest island. Long a protected area, now it’s set to be paved over to build a luxury resort.
Emmanuel Macron’s government is calling for a ban on one of France’s largest Palestine solidarity campaigns. The proposal is repression of free speech — and makes a mockery of Macron’s attempt to sound more critical of Israeli crimes.
Malcolm X challenged the violence of US power, abroad and at home. Donté Stallworth writes in Jacobin about how Malcolm’s radical internationalism, from Congo to Palestine, speaks to our moment.
With Donald Trump’s cease-fire deal with Yemen, we now have the same outcome that we would have had if Trump had never started bombing Yemen in the first place.
Neocons are taking advantage of the neo-McCarthyism Donald Trump has stoked against pro-Palestinian activists on the left to go after more antiwar voices on the right in his own administration. Such witch hunts never stop at their original targets.
Whatever restraints once existed on Israel’s behavior are long gone. Benjamin Netanyahu is now setting his sights on Iran — the question is to what extent President Donald Trump will back him.
Last year, Germany’s Foreign Office spelled out guidelines for a “feminist” foreign policy, focused on defending marginalized women. Today in Gaza, this same ministry is arming the deadliest war on women and girls this century.
In an interview, United Electrical Workers president Carl Rosen talks about the union’s call to halt US military support to Israel and why it’s important that the labor movement speak up against US wars.
Palestinian human rights lawyer Munir Nuseibah explains what this summer’s International Court of Justice ruling against Israel over its occupation of Palestine means for the future of Palestinians.
In last night’s debate, Kamala Harris rightly insisted that much of the country is exhausted by and ready to move on from Trump. But we deserve to move on to something better and more substantive than what Harris had to offer.
Pennsylvania governor Josh Shapiro is perhaps the top contender to be Kamala Harris’s running mate. But Shapiro would be an awful selection, with a history of alienating and antagonizing core party constituencies and caving to pressure on major issues.
If Kamala Harris really wants to show she is ready to turn a new page in the campaign against Donald Trump, it’s obvious who her choice as running mate should be: Bernie Sanders.
Israel has laid waste to Palestinian agriculture for decades. It’s only gotten worse since the war started.
When pro-Israel voices carelessly accuse their opponents of antisemitism, they reduce a serious and specific charge to just another political slur. The longer this goes on, the harder it is to identify and respond to real and gravely serious antisemitism.
New York University is punishing students who protested the genocide in Gaza by forcing them to take a philosophically confused course on “integrity.” University administrators are the ones who need to brush up on that subject.
In the University of California system, the union representing 48,000 grad students and other academic workers is about to strike in protest of repression of campus protests. It’s a watershed for labor and for the Palestine solidarity movement.
