#NoTechForApartheid campaign against Google & Amazon Web Services' cloud technology contract with apartheid Israel is growing.

Google offers learning software. Let’s teach Google respect for Palestinian human rights.

Toolkit for student & faculty ⬇️ ctt.ec/ZO31x+

The Google & Amazon contract for cloud tech, #ProjectNimbus, helps entrench Israel's regime of settler-colonialism, apartheid & occupation.

It assists the Israeli state & military in carrying out violence & ethnic cleansing against Indigenous Palestinians.

Heeding the Palestinian call to end corporate profiteering from apartheid, activists, workers, and shareholders globally call on Google & Amazon to end Project Nimbus.

Non-assistance to crimes against humanity is an international duty.
#NoTechForApartheid

Corporate tech giants are complicit in denial of workers rights, surveillance and militarization.

We need to build intersectional, global campaigns for justice. Let’s develop the #NoTechForApartheid campaign, linking effective Palestine solidarity with these struggles.

In 2021, Google and Amazon workers wrote to management, urging them to end this contract. Recently, shareholders also demanded an end to these contracts in stockholders' meetings.

Students oppose the use of their talent to serve apartheid.

#NoTechForApartheid

Actions to support this campaign:

- Mobilize campus unions to challenge Google & Amazon’s complicity
- Build protests and exhibitions

#MilitaryEmbargo Now!

Colombia to replace Israeli-made military aircraft

From Nov 20 - 29, Never Again is Now: we invite you to join the Week for Sanctions to pressure States & the UN to cut all relations of complicity with the genocidal regime of Israel.

On Friday November 8, the Colombian government of @PetroGustavo announced the decision to replace the country’s old fleet of Israeli Kfir aircraft, provided by Israeli Aerospace Industries, citing geopolitical reasons.

@petrogustavo As early as Oct 2023, days into Israel’s genocidal attack in Gaza, President Petro was the first world leader to warn of the “unprecedented rise of fascism, & therefore, to the death of democracy and freedom. … Gaza is just the first experiment in considering us all disposable.”

MAERSK cannot hide its complicity in the US-Israeli genocide against 2.3M Palestinians in Gaza!

As a result of public pressure, Portugal & Morocco stand up against MAERSK’s illegal transfer of military cargo to Israel, to avoid complicity in violating the Genocide Conventions.

Danish shipping giant Maersk has been already forced to change routes, due to what is a growingly effective military embargo led by grassroots and civil society groups.

Yet, no re-routing is able to stop the protests!

When Spanish activists pressured government to revoke the docking permit of the Maersk Denver, possibly carrying US military supplies for Israel’s genocide, at the port of Algeciras, a domino effect of re-routing started.

More than 230 members of the media industry, including over 100 British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) workers, have signed a letter accusing the BBC of pro-Israel bias in its coverage on Gaza.

loom.ly/igfp-6Y

By largely erasing Palestinian and consciously spreading Israel’s genocidal and deeply racist propaganda, complicit Western mainstream media outlets, like the BBC, play a critical role in enabling Israel's genocide against 2.3 million Palestinians in the besieged and occupied Gaza Strip.

Former senior UN official, @CraigMokhiber says:

"The repeated non-critical recitation of false, dehumanizing Israeli propaganda by western media is not sloppy journalism- it is war propaganda and incitement to #genocide for which they must be held accountable as their media counterparts were in the Nuremberg & Rwanda tribunals.”

#BlockTheBoat: The arms ship MV Kathrin reappears in the port of Alexandria, Egypt.

Is Egypt helping to transfer crucial military explosives to Israel’s genocide against the 2.3 million Palestinians in Gaza?

The MV Kathrin has been sailing for over two months, shunned by ports in Africa and Europe after Namibia’s authorities discovered the vessel was transporting military explosives for Israel’s genocide and its brutal bombings of Lebanon and other Arab people.

The Portuguese government eventually forced the Kathrin to give up its flag and the vessel had to resort to the flag of Germany, the flagbearer of genocide.

After this journey of refusals, the Kathrin navigated for over a week off radar. Journalists spotted her in Porto Romano, Albania, still carrying what seemed to include the 8 containers of 150,000 kg of RDX explosives for Israeli military industries.

On 28 October, the vessel reappeared docking and unloading on the military berth of the port of Alexandria.

#ShutDownNation: Global Divestment, Economic Strain, and the Accelerating “Collapse” of Israel’s Economy.

loom.ly/cB_JkFU

“BDS and boycotts have changed Israel’s global trade landscape,” said Avi Balashnikov, Chairman of the Israel Export Institute. He added, “we fight every day, hour by hour, for Israeli industry abroad. Economic boycotts and BDS organizations present major challenges, and in some countries, we are forced to operate under the radar.”

Warning of Israel’s “downfall” and military “collapse” should the “war of attrition” continue, influential and once Netanyahu-confidant Maj. Gen. Yitzhak Brik has recently said: “Israel's economy, international relations and social cohesiveness are severely damaged by this war.”

Albania is complicit in genocide against the Palestinian people: The ship MV Kathrin, carrying military supplies for Israel, docks and unloads cargo at the Albanian port of Durrës.

We ask Albania: Are the explosives destined for Israeli Military Industries still on the ship? Where are they now?

We condemn Albania for this clear violation of its obligations under international law and call on all people of conscience to put pressure on Albania to do what is right.
