Reject Normalization
Normalization, in the context of Palestine, refers to the process by which relationships, activities, and agreements are established with the Zionist settler-colonial state of Israel without addressing its occupation, oppression, and violations of Palestinian rights. This term includes normalization via diplomatic agreements, economic partnerships, cultural exchanges, and even rhetorical frameworks that equate the experiences of the occupier with the occupied.
What is Al Thawabet?
Al Thawabet, meaning "constants," are the core, uncompromising principles of the Palestinian liberation struggle. These red lines, established by the Palestinian National Council in 1968, represent the demands on which there can be no sacrifice. They have been upheld for decades as the foundation of Palestinian resistance and national identity.
October 7th and Beyond
On October 7th, Hamas's Operation Al-Aqsa Flood was initiated with the dual purpose of liberating Palestinians who are unjustly imprisoned by the “Israeli” Zionist regime and amplifying the Palestinian cause on a global stage.
Evacuate Fadi and Ali Action Alert
Fadi Al-Whidi, a 25-year old Al-Jazeera cameraman, who has risked his life for the last year to document “Israel’s” atrocities across Gaza was targeted and shot in the neck by the Zionist occupation on October 9th, 2024. Images of Fadi stunned the world as they were reminiscent of the targeting of Shireen Abu-Akleh, two years earlier, laying face down while his colleagues and friends shouted his name in desperation hoping for a response.
A week later, Fadi fell into a coma and remains in coma today, requiring to be evacuated from North Gaza to receive life-saving medical treatment. The Zionist occupation continues to deny his evacuation while he fights for his life. We demand action #SaveFadiAlWhidi
Ali Al-Attar, another 27-year old Al-Jazeera cameraman, was injured in a Zionist airstrike in Deir Al Balah on October 8th, 2024. Like Fadi, Ali requires evacuation for critical medical attention to save his life. Ali and Fadi are amongst many journalists who have worked tirelessly to bring the truth to light, and who have been deliberately targeted by the Zionist occupation in an attempt to commit their crimes in Gaza freely.
Al Aqsa Intifada
The Al-Aqsa Intifada, which lasted from September 2000 to February 2005, was a Palestinian uprising driven by deep frustrations with Zionist colonization and failed ‘peace’ talks.
Over the course of 4 years, more than 4,464 Palestinians were murdered, including 1,262 children, 274 women, and 32 medical personnel. Additionally, over 9,800 Palestinians were taken as hostages. The uprising left 47,440 people injured, 10,000 of whom were children.
In terms of property destruction, over 5,000 homes were demolished, and 6,500 more were damaged beyond repair. This intifada symbolized the Palestinian struggle against occupation and injustice.
