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.
- Mobilize campus unions to challenge Google & Amazon’s complicity
- Build protests and exhibitions
- Join days of action
- Open the discussion on free & open-source software
- Write to the companies to end Project Nimbus
Today, on UN Human Rights Day, in the spirit of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, we call on our supporters to heed the Palestinian call for action.
Adopted only days after the UN passed the illegal and unethical Plan of Partition of Palestine 76 years ago, the Declaration has been systematically violated by Israel throughout its existence as a settler-colonial apartheid state.
PRESSURE YOUR GOVERNMENT TO IMPOSE SANCTIONS ON ISRAEL, INCLUDING A COMPREHENSIVE MILITARY EMBARGO.
This isn’t a choice but a duty: Sanctions on Israel were voted for by a global majority of 124 states on 18 September at the UN General Assembly.
We have been calling for and enacting pressure on states and international institutions to fulfill the bare minimum of their legal obligation to end complicity by imposing lawful, targeted sanctions on Israel.
On 5th December, 2024 the world’s largest human rights organization, Amnesty International, added its voice to states, UN experts, and thousands of legal scholars and historians who have reached the same conclusion.
Amnesty International, the largest international human rights organization finds that, based on policies, actions, and omissions since 7 October, 2023, Israel is committing genocide against 2.3 million Palestinians in besieged and occupied Gaza.
Amnesty now adds its voice to states, UN experts, and thousands of legal scholars and historians who have reached the same conclusion.
Most importantly, Amnesty calls on states to impose targeted and lawful sanctions on Israel including:
“Immediately suspend the direct and indirect supply, sale or transfer, including transit and trans-shipment, to Israel of all weapons, munitions and other military and security equipment, including the provision of training and other military and security assistance”
To “use all economic, political and diplomatic tools at their disposal” to ensure that Israel stops the genocide, ends its illegal occupation, and its apartheid regime is dismantled.
Strauss Group forced to sell Sabra Dipping Company due to dipping sales!
The Strauss Group, a complicit Israeli multinational food and beverage corporation, has been forced due to a very effective boycott, to sell off its shares in the US-based company, Sabra, which mass produces the culturally-appropriated popular Arab dip, hummus, and other dips.
Since 2008, Sabra has been co-owned by PepsiCo and Strauss. Sabra sales in the US suffered a massive blow following intensified boycotts in 2023 and 2024 in light of its parent company’s complicity in supporting Israel’s genocide against 2.3 million Palestinians.
Among popular protests and repeated rerouting, the Hong Kong flagged Nysted MAERSK, suspected of carrying US military supplies to Israel, moves towards Haifa port!
#BlockTheBoat
Nysted MAERSK, one of the feeder vessels in the MAERSK scheme of illegal military transfer to Israel, has received at least 46 US military shipments since Oct 7 from the MAERSK Denver in order to transfer them to Israel for use in its ongoing genocide against 2.3M Palestinians.
This time Spanish authorities impeded the transfer of cargo between the vessels that was scheduled to happen in the port of Algeciras.
The Denver and the Nysted had to be rerouted to Tangier, Morocco.
