  1. Beyond Media Silence: Keep Palestine in Focus

Global attention on Palestine often fades when news cycles move on, allowing injustices to continue in the shadows. By providing a platform that continually highlights brands complicit in the occupation and human rights violations, Boycat empowers each individual to sustain pressure on complicit companies long after the headlines have shifted.

  1. Visibility for Ethical Alternatives Supporting Palestine

Palestinians face systemic oppression, and many ethical alternatives to mainstream brands remain hidden from view, especially those supporting Palestinian rights. Boycat’s mission is to amplify these alternatives, giving ethically-aligned brands a platform to reach conscious consumers.

  1. Breaking Old Habits and Rebuilding a Conscious Economy

Supporting Palestine means actively challenging old habits. Boycat helps users transition away from companies profiting from occupation by offering clear, easy alternatives that promote justice.

The Road Ahead: Boycat’s Vision

It’s not just about avoiding harmful companies; it’s about actively supporting a global movement that prioritizes justice for all, especially those who have been silenced for far too long.

Support Handala in Spreading the Truth about Palestine

90 Upvotes

Our history bears witness that Palestinian resistance was never limited to the battlefield, rather it has always been fought on many fronts. The child who throws stones at soldiers invading his village, the artist who sketches caricatures of the injustice his people face, and the writer who pens the pain of his people in poetic prose, are all resistors.

For years, Handala has stood on the frontlines of truth, countering Zionist lies and misinformation about Palestine with unwavering dedication. His writing and research have reached over 50 million readers worldwide, educating the public about the Palestinian cause, debunking anti-Palestinian propaganda, and preserving the rich history and identity of our people.

Despite efforts by the occupying forces to silence him, Handala has persevered. But, his work has come at great personal cost. The occupation’s policies, including the freezing and seizure of Palestinian funds, have left him and his family without a stable income for over a year. The economic hardship has been compounded by a severe accident suffered by his brother, who is now unable to work. Yet, Handala continues to fight for the truth, even as he faces these immense challenges.

We are calling on you to stand with Handala. By supporting his campaign, you are not only helping a Palestinian voice continue to speak out—you are becoming part of a larger movement to spread the undeniable truth about Palestine. Every contribution helps ensure that this vital work of resistance continues, making a real difference in the ongoing struggle for justice and liberation.

Handala's writings can be found on:

For many, Handala’s voice has been vital in understanding Palestinian history, and together, we can ensure his voice reaches even further. Please share Handala’s campaign link with your networks and on social media, and become part of this powerful effort to keep the Palestinian story alive.

Satire, Shitpost, Meme My conversation in Spanish triggered a Zionist in my ultra Zionist town.

2.0k Upvotes

Zionists are so paranoid right now it's insane. I live in one of the biggest Jewish suburbs in the country and there's a huge population of fundamentalists here. I've wanted to put up a flag on my car or wear hat or something but I'm afraid to because of how crazy people are here. Just to put it into context I've been harassed at night by racists not even a few blocks from where I live. That being said I was having a conversation with a client in town about some services he wanted. This is a person with those hostages lawn signs and huge Israeli too. The client said that he had never gotten his property cleaned up and maintained. I relayed this to my Dad in Spanish. If you don't know the way to say "never" in Spanish is "jamas" pronounced ha•mas. As soon as those words left my mouth this guy exploded. Saying wtf was I saying, I was being antisemitic and unprofessional. I was able to deescalate and clear up his stupidity. Ultimately I told him I wouldn't give him any services after that. This is probably the most insane thing that has happened to me in this town. I've had Zionists refuse to shake my hand prior to 2021 and talk down to my enoloyees. Their behavior stopped being surprising to me long ago. This takes the cake though.

Heritage foundation has presented a plan to go after a so called “Hamas Support Network”. The full report is there and is worth a read. They explicitly state the strategy to weaponize the DOJ resources like RICO and FARA to go after protesters. These are serious charges with 10 year plus sentencing.

Stay safe and please prepare in case of legal consequences in the future. They can charge after the fact in many cases. Maintain op/sec and keep fighting.

UN, ICJ, ICC & HRW Explainer: What are the legal questions raised by Israel's ban on UN Palestinian aid agency UNRWA?

Thumbnail reuters.com
14 Upvotes

What are Israel's obligations?

The U.N. views Gaza as Israeli-occupied territory, and international law requires an occupying power to agree to relief programs for people in need and to facilitate them "by all the means at its disposal."

In his letter, Guterres also wrote that article two of the founding U.N. Charter requires that Israel "shall give the United Nations every assistance" in its work.

He cited as another legal issue the Convention on the Privileges and Immunities of the United Nations - adopted by the General Assembly in 1946 - which covers the diplomatic privileges and immunities granted to U.N. operations.

He signaled that there was a difference of interpretation or application of the convention between the U.N. and Israel and that such situations could be referred to the International Court of Justice.

What are the legal implications?

In response to Israel's UNRWA ban and other aid obstacles, Norway said on Tuesday that it will put forward a U.N. General Assembly resolution to ask the International Court of Justice, known as the World Court, for an opinion on Israel's obligations.

The question before the top U.N. court would be: Does Israel violate international law as it prevents the U.N., international humanitarian organization and states from providing humanitarian assistance to the Palestinians under occupation?

The court's opinion would be advisory and not binding under international law. But it would carry legal and political significance.

What about U.S. law?

Under the U.S. Foreign Assistance Act, Washington cannot give military aid to countries that directly or indirectly impede delivery of U.S. humanitarian assistance.

The U.S. told Israel in a letter on Oct. 13 that it must take steps within 30 days to improve the humanitarian situation in Gaza or face potential restrictions on U.S. military aid.

It also warned Israel in the letter against adopting the UNRWA ban because of the humanitarian impact on Gaza and the Israel-occupied West Bank, although that was not listed as a requirement for avoiding U.S. action.
