42 years ago, Mary Manning — a 21-year-old Dublin cashier — refused to ring up South African grapefruit. She was suspended. Ten colleagues walked out with her, and their strike lasted almost three years, until Ireland became the first Western country to ban apartheid goods.

This is Israel’s deliberate policy of ongoing Nakba. To maintain business as usual with the genocidal state of Israel or any of its complicit companies and institutions is to be complicit too. We need you to channel your rage, frustration, and grief into effective, strategic BDS action now.

BREAKING: Pro-Palestine activists have disrupted a presentation by Werner Vogels, Amazon vice president and Chief Technology Officer, at the UN’s “AI for Good” summit in Switzerland. Palestinian civil society strongly condemns the UN International Telecommunication Union’s shameful partnership with criminal tech companies in this summit, particularly Microsoft, Amazon, Google, Cisco, Oracle, and IBM. In providing cloud infrastructure and AI technologies to the Israeli war ministry, these companies are deeply complicit in Israel's military occupation, apartheid and genocide against Indigenous Palestinians. Project Nimbus, the joint $1.22 billion contract between Google and Amazon signed in 2021, provides cloud and AI tech services to the Israeli government and the Israeli military. It enables the Israeli military to run deadly AI programs such as Lavender and Gospel — crucial to its ongoing, livestreamed genocide in Gaza. We call for global pressure on the UN and its member States to end all UN partnership and contracts with these and similarly complicit corporations, and on Amazon and Google to drop their genocidal Project Nimbus.

A large intersectional coalition is fighting to get Palantir out of the UK's NHS, keeping patient data safe from the AI weapons and surveillance company. The UK government is feeling the heat. It’s time to turn it up. The Palestinian-led BDS movement calls for pressure on governments and hospitals around the world to refuse ties with Palantir, a company complicit in Israel's genocide, occupation and apartheid against Palestinians. Together, we can purge Palantir.

Palantir might be the company most passionately committed to Israel’s genocide and human rights violations globally. The Palestinian-led BDS movement calls for forming broad intersectional coalitions to lead contract exclusion campaigns, peaceful disruptions, and other creative forms of pressure on institutions contracting Palantir around the world.

Italy was on strike in solidarity with Palestinians last Monday. Hundreds of thousands demonstrated from south to north, blocking roads, ports and railway stations. In Rome, many drivers found themselves stuck in traffic — and were happy about it, saluting demonstrators and condemning Israel’s genocide and apartheid against Palestinians. The BDS movement salutes the Italian trade unions, students movements, grassroots groups and people of conscience who have made this unprecedented act of meaningful solidarity possible — and calls on people across Europe and the world to follow suit. Escalate BDS pressure and #DisruptComplicity now! Footage: DaniNapo (IG) BDS Italia

The often mentioned $3.8 billion the US sends to Israel each year in military funding, as part of its MOU, is only a tiny fraction of the real cost that US taxpayers actually pay to finance and arm Israel’s endless wars of aggression, war crimes, military occupation, apartheid and genocide. Leading economists, including Harvard war budgeting expert Linda Blimes, estimate the Iran war will exceed $1 trillion – yes, you’ve read it correctly! – in long term costs to US taxpayers. The US could be funding schools, healthcare, housing and jobs for its people, but has instead chosen to fund Israel’s wars. $1 trillion for Israel’s wars, austerity and rising costs for US taxpayers – not to mention US complicity in international crimes. Escalate BDS pressure to end all forms of US complicity!

CAF — the Basque train manufacturer registered in Spain — builds, maintains, and now expands the Jerusalem Light Rail, which links illegal settlements in the occupied West Bank to West Jerusalem. Settlements, which are built on stolen Palestinian land and sustained through the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians, are war crimes under international law. This is why CAF is on the UN database “black list” and is a priority target of the BDS movement. This is why Palestinian civil society called for a Global Week of Action against CAF. Activists in several countries answered that call. Let’s stop Israel’s apartheid train — for good.

When grassroots mobilizations forced 27 containers of steel for Israel's military industry to be unloaded and detained at the Italian ports of Gioia Tauro and Cagliari, this was a watershed moment. Yes we can — and yes, states are obliged to — stop the criminal cargo. Months later, the containers are still there, and authorities refuse to answer crucial questions. Italian MP Stefania Ascari has been denied access to containers held at the Italian port of Gioia Tauro. As confirmed by Italian authorities, these containers carry military-grade steel shipped from India to Israel, reportedly destined for Elbit Systems, Israel’s largest weapons manufacturer. Now, port authorities must allow for their inspection — and, if their destination is confirmed, take a decision to prevent them from leaving their ports to reach apartheid Israel, where this steel will supply its genocide against Palestinians. The BDS movement calls for escalating pressure on Italian authorities. Block the boats.
