Probably the largest march in Boorloo/Perth history. What an amazing turnout despite all the lies and deceit from our government and media.

And yet, the news from Palestine is devastating. Keep the pressure up! Keep writing to your MPs, keep talking about Palestine!

Sanction Israel now!

Incredible turnout in Boorloo today for the Gaza solidarity rally despite the rain! Probably 2-3times bigger than usual. A very good sign for tomorrow’s Gadigal march on the Harbour Bridge.

Lift the siege. Stop the slaughter. Sanction Israel now!

Snap action at the US Consulate in Boorloo/Perth last week. In response to the illegal and reckless strikes on Iran.

Australia should affirm international law, call out the US, sanction Israel now.

Rally in solidarity with the people of Gaza and the Global March to Gaza.

Sanction Israel now, it is a genocidal state trampling every possible legal and moral code.

A regional and possibly a world war is about to be unleashed. This is the cost of impunity.

Sanction Israel now!

Snap rally at DFAT Perth Office in solidarity with the illegally straved Gazan people and the illegally abducted crew of the Madleen in international waters by the IOF.

The Freedom Flotilla, carrying aid to Gaza via international waters, has been illegally stopped and boarded by the IOF.

This is yet another illegal act by an army and country acting in complete impunity.

Join us at 4pm today in front DFAT Perth Office on St George’s Terrace.

Sanctions now!

Students and Teachers in Gaza: β€œEducation Itself Is a Form of Defiance” Israel has destroyed every university and 85 percent of schools in Gaza. Four young women talk about how they keep studying amid the violence.

Resisting scholasticide ✊.
(The word omnicide seems more appropriate at this stage).

We launched the nationwide β€œYour Voice Matters! Survey” last week at the UWA students Freedom Festival.

We are measuring institutional suppression of speech on Palestine.

Please take a few minutes to fill it yourself and share it with people and orgs you think can help disseminate it!

The Colonised University: Destruction of Knowledge in Palestine, Denial of Coloniality in France The genocide in Gaza and its Western legitimation highlight that Universities are not the β€˜objective’ and β€˜universal’ sanctuary they claim to be.

We just recently published an incredible article by Sbeih Sbeih on our Substack.

He asks what it means to produce critical scholarship from within institutions that are complicit in the face of the colonial (and genocidal) enterprise?

My Take | The Western world has already dug its own grave in Gaza war By enabling Israel to unleash its genocidal impulse, most leaders of developed nations have crossed a moral red line that cannot be undone.

Cold hard truths for the 'liberal' West.

"The West cares more about the feelings of the butchers than the lives and limbs of victims. Western β€œcivilisation” now sounds like a contradiction in terms."

And despite this, the Western media appears to still e doing a worse job than critical Israeli media.

They call it β€˜liberalism’.

Israel sees unprecedented spike in media censorship In 2024, Israel's military censor banned 1,635 articles and partially redacted another 6,265 β€” part of a wider assault on freedom of press.

"When the censor intervenes, media outlets are forbidden from indicating that censorship has taken place, meaning most of its activity remains hidden from the public. No other self-described β€œWestern democracy” has a comparable institution."

On β€˜Moral Panic’ and the Courage to Speak: The West’s Silence on Gaza Not caving in to this panic is one small but important step in building a global Palestine network that is urgently needed.
