3/23: Israel Has Formed a Task Force to Carry Out Covert Campaigns at US Universities

A major Israeli news site says Israel’s foreign affairs and diaspora affairs ministries are behind the operation.

William I. Robinson-TRUTHOUT

As worldwide protest escalates over Israel’s genocide of Palestinians in Gaza, academic freedom and free speech are under all-out attack on university campuses in the United States, not just from university administrations and pro-Israeli groups, but now directly from the highest levels of the Israeli state. In a story that has been largely ignored in the Western press, the Israeli news website Ynetnews, one of the largest media outlets in the country, reported that the Israeli government has launched what appears to be a wide-ranging covert campaign to harass and intimidate students, faculty, and administrators into silence...

"Vaccine and Sactions" "疫苗与制裁" A New China-US Joint Production Documentary by Lee Siu Hin

www.VaccineAndSanctions.org

A 61-minute joint China-U.S. production, written and directed by Chinese-American community activist Lee Siu Hin; a new documentary based on our two books “Capitalism on a Ventilator” and “SANCTIONS: A Wrecking ball in a Global Economy”. A production of China-US Solidarity Network, with AiXSiXiang from China and International Action Center from U.S.

The film interviewed Sara Flounders, Margaret Flowers and Lee Siu Hin on U.S. failure to fight against the pandemic, how U.S-led vaccine imperialism and sanctions had blocked the life–saving vaccines to billions of people around the World. When “Capitalism on a Ventilator” was published in September 2020, it was immediately banned by the American online retailer Amazon; it was not until March 2021 that after the Chinese media reported the censorship, Amazon backed-off and put the book back to their site within 24 hours.

In addition, the film included different authors from the "Sanctions" book, to discuss the negative impact of US sanctions on different countries in the world, they criticize the U.S.-led Western power imposing sanctions on more than 40 countries with one-third of the population around the world, resulting in a serious global humanitarian crisis . And activists demand we can learn from China’s successful fight against the COVID, and their vaccine diplomacy, international solidarity that had benefited hundreds of millions of people across the World.

This documentary does not accept any government or corporate sponsorship; it’s entirely a grassroots initiative, with self-funded out-of-the pocket, and passing the bucket donations from all over the world; and the generous helps from friends to complete the production. Most of the documentary was filmed on my personal broken but durable Huawei Pad, which is currently not available for sale in the US due to sanctions.

alguien creería que una enfermedad
podría matar a más de un millón de personas en Estados Unidos
y unos millones más en todo el mundo

hace 3 años
alguien creería
que la respuesta anti-COVID de los Estados Unidos
podría ser un fracaso total
y que el país
se negaría a compartir sus vacunas
con los países en desarrollo de todo el mundo

Useful Handouts and Know Your Immigrant Rights When Marches
 
 
Immigrant Marches / Marchas de los Inmigrantes
(By ACLU)

Immigrants and their supporters are participating in marches all over the country to protest proposed national legislation and to seek justice for immigrants. The materials available here provide important information about the rights and risks involved for anyone who is planning to participate in the ongoing marches.

If government agents question you, it is important to understand your rights. You should be careful in the way you speak when approached by the police, FBI, or INS. If you give answers, they can be used against you in a criminal, immigration, or civil case.

The ACLU's publications below provide effective and useful guidance in several languages for many situations. The brochures apprise you of your legal rights, recommend how to preserve those rights, and provide guidance on how to interact with officials.
