The attack on Samidoun is an attack on the entire anti-imperialist movement, and marks the beginning of a wave of broader criminalization and repression of pro-resistance speech.

A letter from the Biden administration to Israel this week threatening to possibly withhold weapons raised hopes among some, but the delivery of a missile defense system and deployment of U.S. soldiers sent the real message.

The US and Canada recently took joint action to target the Samidoun Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network over alleged “connections to terrorism.” The group says the attack is an attempt to criminalize resistance to genocide.

“Despite the McCarthyite environment, the new anti-speech policies, the attempts to throw the book at students for minor violations of such policies, the student movement is still going strong,” says Palestine Legal attorney Radhika Sainath.

Testimonies from the brutal siege on the Jabalia refugee camp in northern Gaza describe massive air and ground assaults, including killer quadcopter drones, that are destroying infrastructure and causing catastrophic humanitarian conditions.

Biden has threatened to halt arms sales to Israel, but it’s impossible to take the claim seriously.

Israel has committed a new massacre in Jabalia as it continues its siege on northern Gaza.

The Israeli army said on Thursday that Hamas chief Yahya Sinwar had been killed in combat during an armed confrontation with an Israeli army patrol in Rafah.

Israel’s slaughter of media workers in Gaza has been the most systemic attack on the press in world history. Shuruq As’ad of the Palestinian Journalists Syndicate shares the conditions Palestinian reporters are facing while reporting on the genocide.

The devastation from Hurricane Helene and Israel’s escalation in the Middle East may not seem connected, but they are linked through the United States’s commitment to mass militarization and refusal to work toward a just global future.
