Palestine against an eco-apartheid world
In coming years, eco-apartheid will become more prominent worldwide as colonial violence is used to maintain and safeguard Western interests and profits. We are seeing this future in Gaza today.

In Ottawa, over 100 Jewish activists have begun a sit-in inside a parliamentary building to demand Canada stop arming Israel. The Canadian government’s claims that it is halting arms shipments to Israel are obfuscating the fact that Canadian weapons are still being transported via the United States.
