The British Medical Journal: Israel continues to block lifesaving supplies from entering Gaza despite committing to allowing aid in as part of the ceasefire agreement.

Gaza “genocide has not stopped,” charities warn, as Israel continue to block aid
Israel is continuing to block vital supplies to Gaza despite agreeing to allow aid in as part of the ceasefire agreement, aid agencies warn. Blocked supplies include food, medicines, tents, and blankets and also materials desperately needed to start rebuilding water treatment and sewage systems. Oxfam’s policy lead for the occupied Palestinian territories, Bushra Khalidi, said, “ People are calling this a ceasefire, but it doesn’t feel like peace. It feels like it’s an intermission between tragedies.” Speaking at a video press briefing yesterday (video 1), she said aid trucks are “crawling through a handful of crossings that open and close at will” and while “we’re told that conditions are improving, improvement from near zero is not how we measure progress in a humanitarian response. Video 1 Oxfam’s Bushra Khalidi speaks to The BMJ from Jerusalem “Progress is measured by whether people’s needs are met, whether families have enough food, whether they have clean water, whether they have shelter, whether they have access to medical care, whether they have safety to live with dignity. “By that measure, Gaza’s nowhere close.” Jamil Sawalmeh, country director of ActionAid Palestine, said that although the ceasefire agreement has left the world “sighing with relief,” the genocide in Gaza continues. “The current ceasefire …

The ADL: Palestine and the Intersections of Race, “The Hate Framework,” and Power - online but featuring lots of organizers from MA and MA campaigns

Register Here zoom.us/webinar/regi...
Welcome! You are invited to join a webinar: 2. The Anti-Defamation League: Palestine and the Intersections of Race, “The Hate Framework,” and Power. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email about joining the webinar.
This panel explores the agency of the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) in efforts to excise the history and colonial/capitalist contexts of colonization in Palestine from education, to criminalize advocacy for Palestinian liberation, and to remake the university as an instrument of right-wing repression. Taking a deep dive into the history of the ADL in relation to Palestine, Zionism, and the “antisemitism” accusation, panelists discuss how this organization is at the heart of broader political, social, and cultural efforts to dehumanize Palestinians and insulate militarized racial states–particularly the United States and Israel–against popular resistance. It also demonstrates how the ADL has been central to attacks on civil rights, Black liberation, Indigenous rights, Islam and Muslims, and immigration and immigrants in the US since at least the 1960s, and how it has often worked hand-in-hand with repressive federal agencies to surveil human- and civil-rights activists on campuses and elsewhere and to promote a broader right-wing agenda in US political life.
