Disrupt apartheid - Join the CAF Global Week of Action, June 6-13. Basque train manufacturer CAF provides the technical backbone for Israel’s colonial Jerusalem Light Rail. CAF directly enables Israel's illegal occupation and annexation of East Jerusalem and the consolidation of Israel’s colonial settlements that ethnically cleanse Indigenous Palestinians from their homeland. loom.ly/RH0QSWI

Water is Life; Support MECA's Urgent Work in Palestine

Israel's recently-passed death penalty law contains no clear exemptions for children, and the Government of Israel has not clarified whether children would be excluded from its scope. Adding a discriminatory and irreversible death penalty to a system already known for abuse would be a brazen assault on the rights of Palestinian children. Save the Children strongly opposes the death penalty bill and calls for its immediate withdrawal. The UK Government has said it opposes the new law, but has failed to take tangible action to pressure the Israeli Government to withdraw it. We refuse to accept a world where Palestinian children - or any children around the world - could be sentenced to death. #StopTheWarOnChildren

“It’s the only place where displaced people here in the tents can go to sit and read.” This Palestinian pharmacist and his friend rescued thousands of books to create the first new library in Gaza since Israel’s genocide: the Phoenix Library.

Our colleague @wa3dabbas has visited our different partners in Tulkarem in the occupied #WestBank and wrote this reflective piece on the visit. We're sharing snippets of it here; "Against #Fragmentation: Finding #Palestine Again in #Tulkarem" mecaforpeace.org/against-fragme…

Hey all, it’s publishing day for my book “How to Sell a Genocide,” which is a data-driven account of mainstream media’s role in creating the conditions of mass death in Gaza. 100% of royalties go to @MECAForPeace. Thank you! a.co/d/0eEN8Afq plutobooks.com/product/how-to…

On this earth day we remind the world that war lords and the weapons industry are among the most toxic and lethal tools not just for humans but for earth as well; and we urge you to continue working towards ending the Israeli genocide, apartheid, and blockade!

And even though we will never do them justice; we took a moment to honor these amazing Palestinian workers by organizing a small activity to recognize their efforts and offer simple gifts as tokens of appreciation for their dedication and resilience.

On this #EarthDay, we’re reminded that caring for the planet is inseparable from caring for people. In occupied #Gaza, this care persists under the ongoing Israeli #genocide against Palestinians, the more than 17 years long Israeli #blockade & #apartheid.
