US taxpayers are footing the bill for Israeli settler-colonialism in more ways than one. A new video by @ajplus highlights how American charities are funding the eviction of Palestinian families. youtube.com/watch?v=kbPnF8Hv…

And this is why we should reject the tendency to frame anti-imperialist solidarity through the lens of self-interest. This argument, that foreign military intervention/violence should be opposed simply because it diverts public funds from domestic healthcare or social programs, is rooted in social-chauvinism.
Genocide is wrong because it is wrong, not because it is expensive for Americans. The longer we allow these disgusting talking points which center US comfort rather than the lives of those enduring atrocities, the longer we will find support for these atrocities

Very annoyed at the people discouraging donating directly to individuals and families. Organizations aren’t being able to operate properly or provide for everyone.
And maybe an organization will be able to feed 100,000 people so yes, DO donate to them, but ALSO to the individuals who need surgeries and medication that the org won’t cover.
The org will feed them perhaps but the org won’t provide the money for rent to keep them sheltered, or the blankets to keep them warm.
So many people and families fall through the cracks and that’s what their individual campaigns are for. Of course it’s an imperfect system and of course it’s not equitable and of course it’s not sustainable, and yet it’s the only option.
So for God’s sake don’t discourage people from donating to individual campaigns.
Yes, do emphasize other actions as well, but don’t make things more difficult for the families and those trying to keep them alive.

I've spoken with Palestinians from Hebron over the weekend. One told me about a family forced from their home while their daughter's wedding was scheduled for the next day. Another told me they can't get to school because a checkpoint now blocks the street leading to it.
Since January 2022, zionists have damaged and destroyed roughly 168,000 Palestinian trees in the West Bank alone. That's one tree every 15 minutes, day and night, for almost five years. This year, 2026, they are destroying trees every 4.5 minutes.
🫒Estimated olive harvest figures in Judea and Samaria to date:
* ~220,000 dunams harvested so far
* ~100 coordinated olive harvesting sites operated under the protection of security personnel in Judea and Samaria
* The estimated yield harvested stands at ~22,500 tons of olives, from which ~5,500 liters of olive oil have been produced, with a value of 225 million NIS.
Incidents receiving media attention account for only a small percentage of the olive harvesting areas in Judea and Samaria. The vast majority of coordinated olive harvesting operations protected by security personnel are proceeding as planned, without unusual incidents.

Sunday listening! Sunday reading below.
Dr. Omar Zahzah reminds us not to give an inch to the Zionist state's claims—all of it, every attack, every designation, is about "suppressing support for a colonized people to be free". Whatever we legitimize will be used against ourselves and others.

i don’t have anything clever to say. my friend needs help feeding his family and i want people who have the means to help him.
💔😭 Imagine being responsible for 13 people, with your heart constantly worrying about how to provide food and basic necessities for them tomorrow.

I’ve lost my home and my job, but every day I keep fighting to protect my family and hold on to hope. I’m not asking for luxury. I’m asking for the most basic necessities my family needs to survive.
We still need just $160. 😭🙏
Please don’t scroll past our pain without helping. Even $5 or $10 might seem small to you, but it could make a real difference to my family.
Please donate whatever you can, or quote and share my post. Please don’t leave us to face this struggle alone. ❤️🩹
Btw, we are two years late to this one, but an excellent episode from @MAKCapitalism raising important questions, just as relevant as ever, for organizers. millennialsarekillingcapital…
In our latest interview, Dr. Omar Zahzah talked about some of the things he thinks about — and teaches his students to think about — as they study various sources. His advice offers something useful to us all. thecall.ps/p/episode-3-omar-…

To whom it may concern: The university where I study has been subjected to bombardment. Three students have been martyred, and others have sustained serious injuries. We are even being denied an education; they do not want us to learn.
Very much appreciate folks helping to get this campaign moving again. Please keep it up!
Israel is working to bring back famine to Gaza; the threat of starvation is once again knocking at the door. Israel is currently pushing toward famine and the displacement of the population. I urge you to help and to share this.

Breaking: An Israeli airstrike has just hit Universities Square in western Gaza City, an area usually crowded with students at this time of day

Important visualisation. During the period Israel carried out the pre-meditated Genocide in Gaza, up until now, there were powerful Zionist actors who saw opportunities in the world's distraction to accelerate the violent Jewish Colonisation of the occupied Palestinian territory.
I think folks missed a piece of this, so I just want to highlight this particular dynamic. There is a particular type of evil within the processes of zionism, in that they are disposses, maiming and slaughtering the people they know personally. 1/3
Most so-called wars are waged against strangers. A US soldier in Iraq maybe never met an Iraqi, yet was sent to kill complete strangers. Every Israeli knows a Paletinian. From the bus drivers, to their teachers, to the municipal worker — Palestinians are part of their lives. 2/3
