TRUE HORROR OF THE ISRAELI ASSAULT
The US House of Representatives recently passed HR 888, reaffirming the State of Israel’s right to exist by a vote of 412-1. And HR 894, which says the House “clearly and firmly states that anti-Zionism is anti semitism” has passed by a vote of 311-14 with 92 abstentions. Imperialist media continues to make unsubstantiated claims about what the Palestinian resistance did or did not do on October 7th in a major new coordinated propaganda push. And, protests in support of Palestine, calling for a ceasefire, end of the siege of Gaza and an end to US aid to Israel don’t seem to be slowing down at all as we approach two months from Al Aqsa Flood and get into the holiday season.
We’re joined by two Palestinian organizers to talk about the impact of the war on Palestinians in Palestine as well as in the US. Fatin Jarara is a community organizer with Al Awda NY, and Rania Mustafa is Executive Director of the Palestinian American Community Center.
