Israel and the United States rejected a joint proposal from Palestinian factions, including Hamas, that linked disarmament to Palestinian statehood and security guarantees in Gaza talks.

A Palestinian source said the plan tied disarmament to political rights "within the national framework" and protections for civilians in Gaza, but mediators and the US rejected it and sent "threatening messages" to the delegation, according to a senior Palestinian source with knowledge of the talks who spoke to Middle East Eye.

Anti Imperialist Direct Action in Brazil


Anti Imperialist Direct Action in Brazil


As the old world collapses and the new one takes too long to be born, we find ourselves living through the most decisive moment in human history.

In Brazil, from the left to the right, what we see is an excess of legalism, blind faith in institutions, and a pacifism that now borders on suicide.

The recent political developments that have shaken relations between Brazil and the United States are just another maneuver by imperialism to open a new front in its endless search for wars to feed the insatiable U.S. military-industrial complex.

In light of this new situation, we have brought together revolutionaries from all four corners of Brazil to build a new movement of the radical left in our country. Through direct action, with more practical work and fewer speeches and meetings, we will make propaganda our primary weapon.

Over the past three months, our group has been responsible for setting fire to six Statue of Liberty replicas in five different Brazilian states, across the North, South, and Eastern regions. These statues are symbols of a major Brazilian retail corporation called Havan, whose owner, Luciano Hang, is an active far-right political supporter, a personal ally of Jair Bolsonaro, and a loyal supporter of Donald Trump.

With billions in debts to the state, a controversial record of political involvement, and total alignment with U.S. interests, Luciano Hang decorates every new Havan store with these massive structures, which symbolize not only his personal megalomania but also the strong presence of the United States across nearly every Brazilian state where a Havan store operates.

Just a few weeks ago, we carried out a coordinated and simultaneous action in four different states, resulting in the total destruction of four statues standing 37 meters tall.

In response, Luciano Hang—jokingly known in Brazil as the “Havan Bald Man”—announced a rewards of R$50,000 and even R$ 100.000 for any information leading to our identification and possible capture.

Of course, the attempt was unsuccessful.

We know exactly what we are doing, and we are not going to stop.

New actions will be carried out, and with the success of this campaign, we will escalate our focus toward the U.S. presence in Brazil.

As a front-line force in street actions and direct confrontation against Zionism and imperialism, we aim to become an example and a reference point for hundreds of thousands—if not millions—who are waiting for the emergence of a truly combative and revolutionary movement.

Behind us, a broad popular front is beginning to take shape in Brazil, in Colombia, and in other countries across Latin America.

In early April, Colombia hosted the Founding Congress of the International Anti-Imperialist League (AIL), bringing together more than 150 anti-imperialists from 50 delegations across 14 countries and every continent. The Congress adopted a common anti-imperialist program, approved the League’s statutes, and issued six political resolutions supporting struggles against imperialism worldwide.

Despite escalating repression in Ecuador—where the Congress was originally planned—the event was rapidly relocated and successfully carried out under difficult conditions and political repression, demonstrating the determination and growing unity of anti-imperialist forces internationally.

Brazil was strongly represented by 17 organizations from workers’, peasants’, youth, women’s, housing, legal solidarity, and popular movements, contributing to the strengthening of international coordination in the struggle against imperialism.

Our organization, responsible for the direct actions mentioned earlier as well as other revolutionary campaigns, actively participated in the construction of the League.

This historic step marks the consolidation of a new international platform for cooperation, solidarity, and resistance among oppressed peoples worldwide.A platform that defends not merely rhetorical anti-imperialism, but rooted, uncompromising anti-imperialism, centered on the defense of armed struggle and insurrection as legitimate means of popular liberation.

Through these initial actions we carried out, we received a strong reception and significant visibility across Brazil. What began as a group of just four has now grown to more than forty comrades committed to carrying out even more impactful and relevant direct actions against U.S. imperialism, raising the banner of anti-imperialism and popular revolution.

A new war scenario is beginning to take shape in Latin America, and Brazil has every indication of becoming a potential target of the fascist regime of Donald Trump. We have little time and a great deal of work ahead of us.

With this crowdfunding campaign, we will be able to expand our operational capacity and begin organizing large-scale actions and protests not only against Yankee imperialism, but also against the strong Zionist presence in Brazilian territory.

With this financial support, we will invest in logistics, safety for our organizers, and new, broader and strengthened actions. For example, by acquiring action cameras, drones, and other techs/equipment, we will be able to document our actions and turn them into powerful propaganda pieces that will serve us like a fine, polished gun.

In the long term, our intention is to formulate a new conception of guerrilla warfare that brings together a new tactic and strategy better suited to the times we live in— one in which the presence of hacktivists, people’s fighters, militants, and all kinds of revolutionaries is possible, from anarchism to Maoism, all under a single revolutionary and anti-imperialist banner.

A broad popular front is beginning to take shape across Brazil, Colombia, and other countries in Latin America. Your contribution helps strengthen this growing network of cooperation and solidarity.

Help us build a new, brighter and revolutionary future.

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

With your financial and internationalist solidarity, we will be able to do even more, directly impacting the Brazilian political landscape while at the same time building a renewed and vigorous anti-imperialist revolutionary force, uniting all sectors of the Brazilian and Latin American left.

Iran Unveils Details of 14-Point Proposal on Complete End of War


Iran Unveils Details of 14-Point Proposal on Complete End of War


Iran has delivered a 14-point proposal setting out its terms for ending the war, according to Iran’s Fars News Agency, as indirect exchanges with the United States continue through Pakistan, which continues to act as a mediator.

The report, citing informed sources, said message exchanges between Tehran and Washington have been taking place via Islamabad, despite the continued Iranian distrust of the US.

According to Fars, the diplomatic channel was activated following internal decision-making procedures and the approval of relevant Iranian authorities.

The agency said Tehran’s proposal presents a “clear roadmap” to end an “imposed war” and asserts Iran’s “red lines” within the framework of any potential agreement.

It added that the Iranian document is in response to the US nine-point proposal.

Iran’s decision to continue engagement through Pakistan signals Tehran’s determination and confidence in pursuing its national interests despite ongoing tensions with the United States, as per the report.

Tasnim confirms Iran’s 14-point proposal


Tasnim News Agency also reported, citing informed sources, that Iran has submitted a response via Pakistani mediation to a nine-point US proposal, with Tehran’s reply primarily focused on securing a complete end to the war.

According to the sources, Washington’s proposal outlined a two-month ceasefire, while Iran argued that all key issues should be addressed within 30 days, emphasizing the importance of pursuing a comprehensive settlement rather than extending a temporary truce.

The Iranian proposal reportedly includes demands for guarantees against future military action, the withdrawal of US forces from areas near Iran, the lifting of the maritime blockade, the unfreezing of Iranian assets, and compensation payments. It also calls for an end to hostilities across all fronts, including Lebanon, as well as the establishment of a new framework for managing the Strait of Hormuz.

Iran is reportedly waiting for the official response from the United States regarding these proposals.

Iran submitted proposal to permanently end US-Zionist war: Deputy FM


Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister for Legal and International Affairs, Kazem Gharib Abadi, announced earlier today that Iran has submitted an official proposal aimed at bringing a permanent end to the US-Israeli-imposed war.

Gharib Abadi said the proposal was delivered to Pakistan, which is acting as a mediator in the process.

During a briefing in Tehran for resident foreign ambassadors on the contents of the initiative, the deputy FM stated that “the ball is now in the American court” regarding the choice between pursuing diplomacy or continuing the war.

However, he stressed that Tehran has consistently maintained its “pessimism and lack of trust” toward the United States and its sincerity in any proposed diplomatic process.

Final draft delivered


The diplomatic outreach coincided with Tehran submitting an updated proposal to end the war through Pakistani mediation. Iran’s official news agency reported that a final draft of the negotiation framework was delivered to Islamabad, which has conveyed it to Washington.

The move follows an earlier Iranian proposal sent last week outlining Tehran’s conditions for ending the war, also transmitted via Pakistan.

In parallel, US media reports citing Pakistani officials indicated that Islamabad had delivered a revised Iranian response to recent US conditions. The officials expressed optimism that an agreement may now be closer following Tehran’s latest submission.

AFP is a Serial Child Killer: Outrage Over the Killing of Two Minors in Toboso!


AFP is a Serial Child Killer: Outrage Over the Killing of Two Minors in Toboso!


The NDFP Special Office for the Protection of Children decries the killing of two minors in Toboso, Negros Occidental. We hold the Marcos Jr. regime and the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) accountable for these war crimes and grave violations of children’s rights in armed conflict.

The killing of 15-year-old Jemina Gumadlas and 17-year-old Dexter Patajo, both residents of Negros, is a heinous crime and a blatant violation of International Humanitarian Law (IHL), particularly the principle of distinction between combatants and civilians. Children, even in the context of armed conflict, must be afforded the highest level of protection at all times. The AFP’s indiscriminate firing in Toboso, which resulted in the killings of at least nine civilians, demonstrate a reckless disregard for these fundamental obligations to which the Philippine reactionary regime is party to and therefore must be held accountable to such obligations.

What further outrages the conscience is the fact that elements of the AFP even went to celebrate the outcome of their operations in an award-giving ceremony on April 24 following what they described as a “successful neutralization of armed insurgents” in Negros Occidental. This is despite full knowledge that two children were among those they massacred. Such conduct reflects not only a profound disregard for human life, but a deeply entrenched culture of impunity within the ranks of the AFP. The loss of children’s lives should never be celebrated.

Beyond the killings, the military operations of the 79th Infantry Battalion in Toboso have resulted in the mass displacement of civilians. Reports indicate that over 600 families were forcibly displaced in Toboso, effectively uprooting families including many children from their homes and exposing them to further harm and trauma. This mass displacement constitutes yet another grave violation of children’s rights and humanitarian protections afforded to civilians.

The AFP already has a long record of grave violations against children, including killings, forced displacement, psychological trauma, and the militarization of their communities. This has only intensified under the current Marcos Jr. regime.

In Negros Occidental, Ben and Ravin Fausto, 14 and 11 years old were shot dead on June 14, 2023, together with their parents Roy and Emelda Fausto, both farmers. The parents of the boys were tagged by the AFP and the NTF-Elcac as members of the New People’s Army. The perpetrators were unnamed armed state agents in Himamaylan City.

Another incident occurred in Sitio Natuling, Barangay Budlasan, Canlaon City, Negros Oriental last July 26, 2022. In the morning of said date, the 59th Infantry Battalion straffed the home of Christina Jacolbe, a pregnant mother killing her, her 16 year old daughteer, Everly Kee Jacolbe and Roldan Montero.

These are just some examples of the killing of minors in Negros Island. Since Marcos Jr. assumed office in 2022, at least 11 minors have been killed in military operations of the AFP.

We call on genuinely independent human rights bodies, both domestic and international, to conduct an immediate and impartial investigation into the Toboso massacre. The AFP commanders, the 79th IB, the specific unit involved in the operation and Marcos Jr. himself as commander-in-chief must all be held accountable, and justice must be rendered to the victims and their families.

Palestinian Islamic Jihad On the Third Anniversary of the Martyrdom of Sheikh Khader Adna


Palestinian Islamic Jihad On the Third Anniversary of the Martyrdom of Sheikh Khader Adna


On the third anniversary of the martyrdom of Sheikh Khader Adnan, we recall the memory of a symbol of the national movement and a beacon of the resistance, and the detonator of the “Empty Stomachs” battle that shook the pillars of the occupation prisons. Three years have passed, and the jihadi and militant legacy of Sheikh Khader Adnan remains alive, vibrant, and inspiring to the fighters in confronting the executioner and the dungeons.

Sheikh Khader Adnan embodied, through his historic hunger strike, the peak of the vigor and will that does not soften in confronting the oppression of the jailer and breaking the might of the executioner. He turned his lean body into a field of confrontation, and his empty stomach into a weapon against the brutal machine of repression, to prove to the world that will and faith are capable of victory, even if the hands are shackled with iron

The memory of the martyrdom of Sheikh Khader Adnan, who ascended as a martyr, is an inspiration of his jihadi and militant legacy, and a reminder of the suffering of the steadfast heroes among the prisoners as they face unparalleled brutality that has exceeded the atrocities of the Nazi detention centers.

Today, as we remember this towering national figure, the suffering of the prisoners is worsening in an unprecedented way, as they face the decision of the war criminals in the government of the usurping entity and the unjust and oppressive decision to execute the prisoners. This is the decision that officially announces the transition of the occupation to the stage of organized extermination behind bars, and turning the prisons into human slaughterhouses in sight and hearing of the world, in blatant defiance of all international charters and norms, and a disregard for the lives of the heroes whose will for freedom and defense of the rights of our people has not and will not be broken.

The Arab and global silence regarding the crimes committed by the occupation will not deter our people from their resistance, and the issue of the prisoners in the prisons will remain at the top of the priorities of the jihad of our people and one of the most prominent goals of the resistance.

It is a jihad of victory or martyrdom.

DFLP & Labor Orgs Commemorated International Workers’ Day in Khan Younis


DFLP & Labor Orgs Commemorated International Workers’ Day in Khan Younis


Leftist Palestinian forces, labor organizations, and trade unions commemorated International Workers’ Day with a massive popular march in the city of Khan Younis, with the participation of national and social blocs, and in the presence of the Mayor of Khan Younis, Engineer Alaa Al-Batta.
The march toured the streets of Khan Younis, reaching the site of the popular festival near the Khan Younis municipal library, amidst calls to strengthen the rights of Palestinian workers and stop the humanitarian and economic deterioration they are facing.

The event was opened by the leader of the Palestinian National Initiative Movement, Mohammed Sawali, who emphasized that Palestinian workers constitute the “vanguard of the struggle and the voice of dignity,” praising t

The festival included speeches and messages in the name of labor blocs and union organizations, where the leader of the Palestinian People’s Party, Ashour Banat, delivered a speech on behalf of the labor blocs. The official of the Workers’ Unity Bloc in Khan Younis, Ayman Al-Faqawi, read a message addressed to the Arab Labour Organization, while Mohammed Fayyad, representing the Progressive Labor Union Front, read a message addressed to the International Labour Organization.

The speeches and messages affirmed the right of Palestinian workers to work, dignity, and social justice, while rejecting what they described as international silence regarding the difficult humanitarian and living conditions that Palestinian workers are experiencing in light of the blockade and economic restrictions.

The message addressed to the Arab Labour Organization emphasized the exacerbation of unemployment and poverty rates, the decline in job opportunities, and the collapse of living standards, in addition to the absence of sufficient social protection, considering that Palestinian workers are facing conditions that threaten their right to a dignified life and job stability.

The message also linked the conditions of Palestinian workers to the violations that Palestinian prisoners are subjected to inside “israeli” prisons, calling for Arab and international action to protect their rights and rejecting any policies related to approving the death penalty against Palestinian prisoners.

At the conclusion of the event, the Popular Committee for Refugees called for participation in commemorating the Nakba on 11 May, confirming the unity of the Palestinian national position and the continued adherence to national rights.
