As Israeli bombs dropped on Gaza, @amazon and @google signed a $1B contract to provide cloud services for the Israeli government.

Alongside workers, 40+ orgs across the globe are launching a campaign to demand #NoTechForApartheid.

Join us: notechforapartheid.com
Google and Amazon should build tech that works for the common good — not enables Israeli apartheid and military occupation.

Tell their executives to cut their $1 billion contract with the Israeli government at notechforapartheid.com.

#NoTechForApartheid
The Israeli government uses Google & Amazon's cloud services to surveil Palestinians, expand illegal Israeli settlements on Palestinian land, & inflict violence in besieged Gaza.

Tell Google and Amazon to cut their $1 B contract at notechforapartheid.com

Kenne Mwikya talks about Israel's ties with "conservative and anti-freedom elements" of Kenya.

People's solidarity lies with the Palestinian people, as both Africans and Palestinians have been under some form colonial oppression through history.
.@Nawajaa : Divestment and boycott campaigns are working. We hope sanctions against Israel will start from Africa, which can then have a rolling effect.

We know the BDS movement is working because Israel is trying to delegitimize and sabotage it but is failing at it.
.@Shokispeare "The GSR called for a resolution to recognize Israel's regime as apartheid and target sanctions including a military embargo

..it is our obligation to guarantee that our governments meet these demands across the African continent"

Israel's war crimes in Gaza are no accident. They are 𝗯𝘆 𝗱𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻.

Lebanon 2006: Israel implemented a policy of extreme violence committing mass murder and destruction of civilian infrastructure in a Beirut suburb, after failing to crush the resistance.

2008: Israel formally adopted the 𝗗𝗮𝗵𝗶𝘆𝗮 𝗗𝗼𝗰𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗲, making disproportionate force against civilian populations the official policy of the army. The doctrine’s logic is that terrorizing civilians will force the resistance to stop.

UN Fact-Finding Mission on Gaza 2009 says 𝗗𝗮𝗵𝗶𝘆𝗮 𝗗𝗼𝗰𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗲 involves "the application of disproportionate force & the causing of great damage & destruction to civilian property & infrastructure, & suffering to civilian populations," to deter resistance groups.

The Jerusalem Declaration on Antisemitism (JDA), despite its omission of representative Palestinian perspectives, provides an alternative to the fraudulent IHRA definition in the fight against anti-Jewish racism, discrimination and hostility.

bit.ly/3snbT4V
The JDA largely respects freedom of expression related to the struggle for Palestinian rights, including BDS advocacy and opposition to Zionism & to Israel’s regime of occupation, settler-colonialism & apartheid.

bit.ly/3snbT4V
Definitions alone cannot dismantle antisemitism. Progressives must commit to dismantling anti-Jewish racism alongside all other forms of racism and oppression. We endorse the following publication from progressive Jewish partners.
