Unity of Fields

❗️Qassam Brigades reports from the field: "After returning from the battle lines, our fighters confirmed that they carried out a joint operation with the fighters of the Quds Brigades, clashing with a Zionist infantry force consisting of 10 soldiers using weapons and hand grenades, killing and wounding them. They pursued one of the soldiers who fled the scene and finished him off at zero distance west of the city of Beit Lahia, north of the Gaza Strip."

#FreeCaseyNow: On Casey Goonan and the Abandonment of Political Prisoners in the Pro-Palestine Movement ...Casey understood this prior to their incarceration and there’s no doubt this knowledge influenced their own political horizons. If the pro-Palestine movement wants to also tote itself as an intifada they should take note of the militant organizing and support infrastructure within and between prison walls that occurrs in Palestine. Abandonment of prisoners is where revolutionary ideals die.

#FreeCaseyNow: On Casey Goonan and the Abandonment of Political Prisoners in the Pro-Palestine Movement ...Meanwhile, coordinated struggle between prisoners and outside militants has been a key point of success for Palestinian liberation. We must recognize the necessity of attacking the infrastructure of occupation domestically. Amidst calls for escalation, it is of vital importance to defend those experiencing repression from the legal system. To not do so is to allow one of the state’s most well-funded and structured counterinsurgency tactics to take complete hold of movements. If people are abandoned to incarceration, the fear of repression will throw everyone towards inactivity. This need for defense is especially true for those facing charges beyond the more palatable ways of dissent, like marches and encampments. State repression must be met with expanding our community resources to reach those inside. Bravery must be met with support. It’s not surprising that, despite the large presence of the Palestinian diaspora in the American pro-Palestine movement, tactics focus primarily on vocalizing dissent through marches and making demands of the state, which are a far cry from the struggle within Palestine itself. This is partially attributed to the class character of the diaspora — a petty bourgeois group would have no investment in attacking infrastructure they partially benefit from even if that same infrastructure perpetuates the genocide of indigenous groups including Black people and Palestinians both domestically and globally. Equally, the motivations and interests of the community organizations and student groups that are largely in control of the movement not only harbor that class character but also rely on funding from the infrastructure they refuse to attack. Despite the student movement being referred to as an intifada, it’s activity is incomparable to what has occurred during the numerous intifadas leading up to the Al-Aqsa Flood. Considering pro-Palestinian community groups and political organizations like USPCN, CJP/SJP, Dissenters, NAARPR, JVP and PSL are supplied with enough funds to bus people in for marches, plan conferences, and campaign for local policy, certainly donating money towards legal fees for those facing repression would be no issue. Even with all the attention and credibility being given to the pro-Palestinian student movement and despite the numerous pro-Palestine student groups on university campuses, there have been no publicly circulated student-led support efforts for Casey. Outside of participants of the Columbia University encampment, there has been no mention of them from any other university space, most likely attributed to groups aligning themselves with certain tactics, a hesitancy towards anarchists, and the fear of repression. Beyond the bare minimum of ensuring people are supported in obtaining adequate legal counsel, any revolutionary horizons with teeth require long term prisoner support. This practice is key to the current struggle that led to the Al-Aqsa Flood as exhibited by the rich history of organizing within prisons and the ongoing liberation of those being held hostage by Israel. In Khalida Jarrar’s words, “[t]he ongoing conquest to liberate prisoners is in tandem with the Palestinians’ constant and multifaceted struggle against colonialism. Hence, the slogan “emptying the prisons” is derived from and a core component in the Palestinian struggle through various stages in its history.”. Those of us living under a plantation economy already have our own reasons to ensure incarceration is a central site of struggle. But if one does insist upon taking guidance from elsewhere and if one intends to “bring the Intifada home” or “escalate for Gaza”, Palestinians have provided plenty of methods for how carcerality can be attacked...

#FreeCaseyNow: On Casey Goonan and the Abandonment of Political Prisoners in the Pro-Palestine Movement Casey Goonan is the only US political prisoner from the 2024 pro-Palestine student encampments. They are an abolitionist and anarchist who has dedicated themselves to multiple forms of prisoner support work and directly engaging with incarcerated comrades. The impact they've made inside is prevalent, as indicated by statements from their comrades Stevie Wilson and Hybachi Lemar. They've always pushed to ensure an understanding of Black struggle and revolt as central to their abolitionist work, and through understanding the totality of anti-Blackness the importance of an anti-police and anti-prison perspective was brought into any and all of their efforts towards liberation. In June of 2024, they were arrested by a task force comprised of the FBI and other law enforcement agencies in connection with an alleged direct action which took place in solidarity with the UC Berkeley encampments which had been brutalized by police and zionists earlier in the year* . If convicted, they could face up to 20 years in prison with a minimum sentence of 5. The investigation and court proceedings are currently ongoing but a non cooperative plea deal is pending in which Casey will plea guilty to one charge to allow additional charges to be dropped. This plea deal does not include information or testimony against anyone else. While Casey has received a great amount of support from decentralized community in New York, Chicago, California, and elsewhere, the pro-Palestine movement needs to be publicly and actively supporting them. Right now, their primary accomplices are those who personally know them, those who prioritize prisoner support, and fellow anarchists. Despite vague assertions of the interconnectedness of repression and struggles between the American policing and prison apparatuses to that of Israel, there has been little material manifestation from that understanding within the US pro-Palestine movement...

Update: the call-ins were successful, we are hearing that extra blankets have been distributed to inmates. Thank you!

🚨 JAIL SUPPORT CALL TO ACTION: This weekend, pipes froze and heat went out at Valley Street Jail in Manchester, New Hampshire, leaving hundreds of inmates stuck freezing with no running water or flushable toilets, on top of already dismal jail conditions (black mold, malnourishment, medical neglect). The temperature has been in the single digits in Manchester. The jail receives calls Monday to Friday from 8am - 4pm ET, please call 603-627-5620 to demand inmates are provided with extra blankets. We are hearing that the water is now back on, and inmates are being told the heat was fixed, but it is more freezing than ever, and it is already an incredibly difficult time of year to be in jail separated from family. Don’t forget about our incarcerated comrades over the holidays, please take time to make a call today.

22 December 2024 - Martin (Burkhard Garweg), Underground RAF Member: Greetings from Illegality (via Abolition Media) Making the impossible possible, as Che Guevara said, has an existential meaning for humanity today: to learn to think about the alternative system again in collective processes against the abysses of the “turning point” age and to fight for it in the perspective together and internationally; break through the logic of the rulers that there is no alternative to capitalism – “there is no alternative” – in us and in all conditions... In the continuing escalation of relations, a new age of barbarism lurks. Only struggles of a social revolutionary counter-movement could provide an alternative.... The fixation on bourgeois-fascist-capitalist parties will not be able to prevent the development of the German crisis state and the EU in growing authoritarianism and war. There is nothing to save. Only an abolition of capitalism fought for from below in the process of transformation will be able to end this development. Today, the socially revolutionary alternative to the progressive fascization of the capitalist system, poverty spreading even in the metropolis, the coming global war and the ecological destruction of the planet would be a socialism that learns from the mistakes of history and thus offers the possibility of building a liberated society – for a world of collectivity, freedom from patriarchy, exploitation, domination and nation, and the survival of nature. This world will not be possible without a combative, creative and diverse movement that is present in the increasing crisis and in the rapidly growing social struggles of the future. This would be the reconstruction of the ability of an anti-capitalist, social-revolutionary and internationalist left to act, which has an impact beyond its own nose. The end of the Sleeping Beauty slumber: It’s time – it’s time – to move.

🚨 NYC: TODAY-1PM-UNION SQUARE 🚨 HANDS OFF SYRIA! RALLY IN SOLIDARITY WITH THE AXIS OF RESISTANCE!

Hezbollah Secretary General Sheikh Naim Qassem Speech Highlights: • What did the enemy achieve through its aggression on Lebanon? It assassinated Hezbollah leaders, including the martyr Sayyed, and committed heinous crimes against civilians. However, it failed to break the stronghold of the resistance, and its actions do not qualify as achievements. • The enemy has realized that a confrontation with Hezbollah is futile and will not lead to its victory, prompting it to resort to a ceasefire agreement. • We endured hundreds of Israeli violations during this period to facilitate the agreement's implementation, expose the enemy, and hold all of the concerned parties before their responsibilities. • In Hezbollah, we monitor developments and act according to our assessment of the interests and unfolding events. • The legitimacy of the resistance stems from its faith in its cause, regardless of its capabilities. • Victory lies in steadfastness and the continuity of this resistance. • Hezbollah's resistance continues with faith and preparation. • We do not know when the resistance will ultimately defeat this occupier. It sometimes wins and sometimes faces setbacks, but the essential aspect is its perseverance and presence on the battlefield. • Victory is maintaining the resistance and ignoring the discordant voices that reflect despair and reactionary behavior. • We say: come to a resistance that has proven its effectiveness and demonstrated that this enemy cannot withdraw except through resistance. • This aggression was stopped at the borders through the solidarity of our people and loved ones. • Every phase has its own methods and approaches; some changes occurred, but the key is for the resistance to endure. • The enemy is contemplating settlements in Gaza and the annexation of the West Bank, backed entirely by the US. • They have destroyed all the Syrian army’s capabilities under various pretexts, which clearly reflects their expansionist agenda, aiming to extend their reach to all Arab countries. • We must continue with the resistance, as it, alongside the army and the people, prevented the enemy’s expansion into Lebanon. • Hezbollah is strong and recovering from its wounds; those who hoped for its end have been disappointed. • Our upcoming agenda includes implementing the agreement south of the Litani River, reconstruction efforts, and electing a president. • We hope for cooperation between Syria and Lebanon governments and people. • As part of our agenda, we advocate for positive dialogue on contentious issues, including: "What is Lebanon’s position on the Israeli occupation of its land? How do we strengthen the Lebanese army? What is Lebanon’s defense strategy?" • We hope that the new ruling entity in Syria will regard "Israel" as an enemy. • The regime in Syria fell at the hands of new forces that we cannot judge until they stabilize, take clear positions, and regulate their situation. • Hezbollah has lost a military supply route in this phase, but this is a detail—we can explore alternative routes. • It is essential to reassess after these significant developments in the region, and we hope the outcomes will be positive.

Hezbollah's Media Relations: The party's Secretary-General, Sheikh Naim Qassem, will deliver a speech today, with the timing to be announced shortly.

As Palestinians and supporters of the HLF5 across the U.S. celebrated news of Mufid's release on Thursday, Nida Abu-Baker, daughter of Shukri Abu-Baker of the HLF5 currently serving a 65 year sentence, shared the following reflections in a post on Instagram highlighting the injustice of Mufid’s wrongful imprisonment and the fact that he served his full sentence for a crime he didn’t commit. Until Mufid, Shukri and Ghassan have all walked free, the struggle to #FreeTheHLF5 will continue. “While we are overjoyed to know he will be reuniting with his family soon, the pain of those lost years - stolen - remains.” . “I am sorry for all you have been through. I am sorry we couldn’t free you sooner. We owe you the world.” . “The fight for freedom does not end with his release; it continues for all those still behind bars - including my father Shukri Abu-Baker and Ghassan Elashi. We have a lot of work to do.” #FreeTheHLF5 #FreeThemAll Photo credit: @/yaakub_ira (IG) Link to Nida’s Instagram post: https://www.instagram.com/p/DDfaewyJfPy/ 🇵🇸Within Our Lifetime🇵🇸 Telegram: t.me/wolpalestine Twitter/X/TikTok: @wolpalestine (2/2)
