🇾🇪 Ansarallah Political Bureau Member Mohammed Al-Bukhaiti: — Things are heading toward escalation due to the “israeli” aggression on Gaza and the American mobilization in the region. If America and “israel” seek escalation, we are ready. We will inflict heavy losses on the occupation, both militarily and economically, and our operations are a bargaining chip in the hands of Palestinian negotiators.

🚨General Irving, the zionazi café in Bushwick, New York, has permanently shut its doors after being repeatedly targeted by protests and clandestine direct action! Reported via Bushwick Super Fun Site

Actionists at UC Davis launch an offensive against a Turning Point booth on campus today. Notice their formation!

Banners reading "General Dynamics Kills Palestinians" & "Fight Back" have been dropped near Colchester VT, where the weapons manufacturer has offices for systems design and engineering. General Dynamics produces Mk-80 bombs and Hydra-70 rockets - both of which are being used by the zionist entity to commit genocide in Palestine. A piece of canvas over the highway is not true resistance. But in order to drop a banner over an interstate, one must first come together with their comrades and think of what words to paint, and where to put it, and how to get in and out without being seen by the pigs. And in doing so one builds their capacity for true material opposition to our imperialist enemies. Build your skills, gather your people, begin your resistance!

A lot of the militants who were taking buildings and leading the crisis last spring are unabashedly pro-resistance. Pro-Axis of Resistance, pro-armed struggle and anti-police/ anti-collaborationist. That's not some kind of accident or coincidence. The politics and the tactics are enmeshed. People wasted a lot of time talking about how it doesn't really matter that much if you support the AoR and armed struggle. Wrong. Of course it does, and that shows up in the way the political line is expressed tactically. People want to sit around and lie about this and say this wasn't the case, those people are the real demobilizing force that are actively placing a ceiling on the movement at precisely the points where it has the most potential to erupt.

Nerdeen Kiswani: Every liberation movement faces a choice: continue along the paths that feel familiar, or step into the uncertainty of what has not yet been tried. The difference between endurance and victory is whether we have the courage to break the cycle. If history teaches us anything, it is that power never concedes to persistence alone. It responds to disruption, to escalation, to forces that leave it no choice but to change. The greatest threat to oppressive systems is resistance that refuses to be predictable. Every movement reaches a time when it must decide: will we keep doing what is familiar, or will we embrace what is necessary? The future is shaped by the courage to evolve. The most effective struggles do not just endure; they escalate. Movements are about more than action, they’re about priorities. Where we put energy, time, and resources reflects what we believe will bring change. If an approach is being used repeatedly with no meaningful gains, it should be re-evaluated. Liberation is not a ritual, or a brand. It’s a practice of relentless adaptation, escalation, and strategy. It’s commitment that every resource, action and sacrifice moves us forward. Action without escalation or leverage, drains those taking risks without a path to victory. Not everyone operates under the same conditions. Those taking risks with little support are not the same as those who have the capacity to escalate but choose not to. It’s important for a movement with resources to take greater risks to shift power, not just sustain itself. If we’re serious about liberation, we need to be serious about strategy. That means reassessing what works, abandoning what doesn’t, and demanding accountability—not just from external forces, but from within our own spaces. Anything less is just maintenance, not struggle.

Opposing this beast means you will be repressed. As George Jackson said, "This is as expected as nightfall." Repression is not something you can opt out of, which is why the respectability game is always one that you will lose. "We are so peaceful!" It doesn't matter if you're as pure as the freshly fallen snow, you are opposing the most powerful war machine in history that is hell-bent on total annihilation. Toughen up and stop making moral appeals to the Fourth Reich.

Backing down from a fight at this conjuncture is infinitely more costly than striking back. The idea that surrender costs you nothing is a dangerous lie. The repression will continue no matter what, the question now is whether or not we will resist it or let it eat us all alive.

Communique from some Texas State “Vandals” (2/2) ...Some students have bemoaned the defacing of their “beautiful” campus. Fuck you lol. This university is complicit in funding Israeli genocide and actively collaborating with ICE against the will of its student population. It was already an extension of an active warzone; our political act simply reminded people of that. It is students who make this campus beautiful, because it is our campus. Others pointed out the inconvenienced sanitation workers forced to take such art down. For the first time, students recognized the existence and working conditions of underpaid, primarily immigrant workers who lack union representation on this campus. But rather than lay those concerns at the feet of a, frankly overpaid, administration whose campus is expanding unsustainably, these students prefer to weaponize said workers against a political movement. How often has the student body taken it upon themselves to guarantee the survival of these workers or their families? UPD has claimed all its efforts are being concentrated on unveiling us while sexual harassment, assault, hazing, and homophobic and racist violence are still mainstays at this University. Perhaps it would be best if they concentrated on those, if they weren’t so often guilty of excesses of violence themselves. Another point of interest was the overwhelming discussions held in the wake of our graffiti. Through Reddit, Instagram, and classrooms debates were held, photographs taken, interviews conducted, and statements released. The University Star would have you believe otherwise, that “many students have already ceased conversations surrounding it.” A boldface lie in an attempt to downplay an event the paper references in 3 different articles this week. Our beloved University President, Kelly Damphouse, even took to the battlements of his own Instagram post responding to the flurry of negative comments he received from Texas State students, and liking messages such as “we stand with you Kelly.” Seems his public outreach coordinator needs to run some trainings with him, feeling the need to respond to each and every negative comment with hundreds of likes. Funny thing that few people recall about Kelly: his doctorate is in counter-terrorism, counter-intelligence, and studying resistance movements. What that means, dear reader, is that the president of our university has a degree in stifling unrest. His position befits the degree as he has spoken wearily of anti-war student activists of the 60’s and compared them to today’s protests around Palestine. A fed for a president who needs to lay off the ‘gram lest he make a fool of himself. We are happy to report that the vast majority of student body responses on social media that we witnessed were positive 🙂 Finally, we come to the particular questions and answered that spurred this communique. Why did we do it? Should you do it? How? Was it easy? We did it because it was a step, a small one, towards escalation. Graffiti carries a certain transgressive and sensationalist appeal that gets people talking. However, this was by no means a performative action designed only to create commotion. IT is part of a sustained national attempt to attack institutions responsible and hold them accountable. In the spirit of the Merrimack 4, we think it important to bring the war home. As parades, marches, protests, and community events have their place in revolutionary change, so too does direct action, disruption, and clandestine activity. With minimal planning, some spray paint, and committed friends we reveal ways to strike back. It was easy. “stay tuned” and “you can do it too” were not just slogans but calls to action. Be bold. Be creative. Have fun, because it is fun to revolt. It’s the University’s responsibility to divest from genocide and keep ICE out. We can bleed their pockets. Material damages is money they cannot spend elsewhere. We take risks because we can, and once you realize it’s possible so can you. (2/2)

Communique from some Texas State “Vandals” (1/2) To our fellow San Martians, We typically prefer that actions speak for themselves, but perhaps a few words are due. In the face of renewed genocide and mass deportations, all that is left is what must be done. Taking up the task of disruption, sabotage, and attack is not something we do lightly. The people of Gaza have repeatedly called for mass student escalation. We’ve witnessed targeted deportations of politicized students, workers, and teachers with legal status; a wave of student protests repressed and occupations torn down, and paltry concessions rescinded by university admin. We ask: what did a protest of over 500 students last spring at the Stallions accomplish? We stood and chanted as fellow students at UT were teargassed. Last week, the Party for Socialism and Liberation hosted a small protest of barely a few dozen. Then everyone went home. Held on the square, this event made front cover of the University Star alongside an opinion piece by the Star’s editorial board advocating “proper avenues” of “political expression.” They even dared to invoke the expelled San Marcos 10 in an effort to downplay a little graffiti. Why? The university can better control every aspect of the narrative if we allow them to dictate proper political expression. Our detractors have labeled us vandals, criminals, outside agitators, domestic terrorists, radicals/extremists. Though these titles are certainly an honor, we remain your humble neighbors, colleagues, & classmates. Living in the heart of US imperialism necessitates actions that disrupt business as usual. We do not fear political repression, but instead a return to normalcy... (1/2)

🔴 Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine: — The new evacuation orders and the execution of medical and civil defense teams are an expansion of the genocide, under American cover and with the world's silence — a partnership in the crime. The horrific crime committed by the zionist occupation, involving the execution of 14 volunteers from the Red Crescent and Civil Defense in the Tal al-Sultan neighborhood of Rafah—after besieging, restraining, then shooting them and burying them in a narrow pit—along with the issuance of new evacuation orders that now cover the entire city of Rafah and parts of Khan Younis, constitutes a major war crime. This comes within the context of imposing a plan of forced and mass displacement, and as a continuation of the genocide against our people. The continuous massacres committed by the occupation across the Gaza Strip amount to a full-scale genocide in every sense of the word—surpassing all boundaries and descriptions—and are being perpetrated under direct American cover and with unlimited military and political support from Washington, which bears full responsibility for every drop of Palestinian blood shed by its missiles and bombs. This American support, along with complicit international silence and Arab abandonment, represents full partnership in these crimes and gives the occupation the green light to continue its genocidal war in Gaza with no deterrence or accountability. The responsibility lies with the Arab states to take urgent action to stop the massacre against our people in the Gaza Strip. Every delay means more blood of children, women, and unarmed civilians will be spilled. The free people of the world must immediately take to the streets, as there is a (zionist-American) decision for ethnic cleansing against our people in Gaza. Failure to act is a betrayal of innocent blood.

A reporter in Gaza (Mosab Abu Toha's translation): Something is unusual about the strikes and shelling this time. The bombs that Israel is dropping on the Gaza Strip from American-made warplanes sound completely different. Their sounds are unprecedentedly loud and terrifying, and their destructive power is immense. What is happening now is something we have never seen before. Israel is using new, more deadly weapons that are capable of destroying everything they touch.

We remember the prayer of Commander Yahya Sinwar in 2021 following the victory in the Saif Al-Quds battle. Echoing his words today, we hold firmly the belief of the imminent victory despite all the pain. The blood of our martyrs will never be in vain, for as long as we hold faith in a resistance who vowed to fight for liberation and justice, and heal the hearts of a believing people. Glory to our resistance. Glory to our martyrs.

As the world turns a deaf ear to the genocide of Gaza, the people of Gaza have decided to protest for themselves, demanding the free world to rise against the zionist killing machine. Spontaneous protests have been held today in various areas of the Gaza Strip demanding pressure to end the genocide war. As in any country, varying opinions exist within Gaza, including opposition to Hamas, particularly from some Fatah supporters. The occupation has attempted to exploit these voices to create a misleading narrative that the people of Gaza have turned against the resistance—when in reality, recent prisoner exchange deals prove otherwise. Notables of all governorates of the Gaza Strip called for protests tomorrow, affirmed their support for the resistance, and rejected attempts of political exploitation of the protests. Several statements have been issued regarding the protests. Statement issued by notables and Mukhtars of Beit Lahia, Northern Gaza Strip: - Spontaneous marches erupted in Beit Lahia, demanding the free world increase pressure on the zionist enemy to stop the bloodshed and open the crossings for aid. - We reject any attempt to politically exploit these marches or divert them from the national cause at this critical time. - Beit Lahia has always been a stronghold of revolutionaries and resistance fighters and will not allow infiltrators to distort its national stance. - Beit Lahia and its people stand firmly with the legitimate Palestinian resistance and reject all treacherous attempts to separate them from the Palestinian collective. Statement issued by notables and mukhtars of the Central Governorate: - Tomorrow, marches in the central governorate will demand increased international pressure on the zionist enemy to stop the bloodshed and open the crossings. - We affirm the legitimacy of these demands and fully support them as rightful claims. - The central governorate has always been a revolutionary stronghold and will not allow its demands to be exploited by infiltrators. Statement issued by the notables and mukhtars of the southern governorates of the Gaza Strip: - We stand in the face of an existential war targeting our people, alongside an inhumane siege imposed by 'israel'—our sworn enemy. - We call on all regional and international forces to fulfill their duties and put an end to the zionist killing machine, which has slaughtered our children, elders, and women for 15 months. - We urge Egypt to take a firm Arab stance to end the famine devastating our people and strengthen our resilience against the zionist displacement plan, which also threatens Egyptian national security. - We call on our people in the West Bank and within occupied Palestine, as well as our Arab and Islamic brothers, to make this Friday a day of mass mobilization—besieging 'israeli' and U.S. embassies until food and water are allowed into Gaza.
