PROTEST AGAINST SETTLER RECRUITMENT FAIR

Wednesday, January 7th, 2025. 7 PM
Manhattan (Exact location TBA).

“All out to protest the illegal settlement of Palestinian land! After cancelling its December event following protests from our community, Nefesh b’Nefesh (NBN)— a key “israeli” settler recruitment agency— is once again hosting an illegal fair in Manhattan. Since 2003, NBN has recruited over 80,000 settlers, of which over 13,000 served in the IOF. It is our duty to confront the pipeline of settlement and zionist colonial expansion that is taking place in our own neighborhoods.

TAKE ACTION AGAINST GENOCIDE, DEPORTATIONS, AND IMPERIALIST AGGRESSION ON VENEZUELA.

“SHUT DOWN CRYE PRECISION. WAR CRIMINALS OUT OF NYC.

WEDS 1/7, 3:30-5:30PM.
BUILDING 77 (141 Flushing Ave).

Trump and the imperialist war machine invaded the sovereign nation of Venezuela and abducted Nicolas Maduro under the guise of fighting against “Narco-terrorism”. We all know the strategy of the US empire for regime change to exploit and abuse the people and resources of other nations. These imperialist mercenaries are outfitted in Crye Precision gear, produced right here in our backyard in NYC at the Brooklyn Navy Yard. We must come together to materially impact their supply chains and agenda.

From Gaza to Venezuela, and from ICE to the US Military, we must oppose imperialist war and fascism in all of its forms – and evict its suppliers from the Navy yard, the City of New York, and every corner of this stolen land.

THE EMPIRE ESCALATES, SO MUST WE!
Show up in groups. Bring noise makers, signs and RAGE!?

SHUT DOWN CRYE PRECISION! SHUT DOWN EASY AERIAL!
DEMILITARIZE BROOKLYN NAVY YARD!”_DEMILITARIZE BROOKLYN NAVY YARD!

There were 8 hunger strikes: Qesser Zuhrah, Amu Gib, Heba Muraisi, Jon Cink, Tueta Hoxha, Kamran Ahmed, Lewie Chiaramello and Umer Khalid.

January 2, 2026 – Heba Muraisi on day 61 of her hunger strike. Teuta Hoxha on day 55 of her hunger strike. Kamran Ahmed on day 54 of his hunger strike. Lewie Chiaramello on day 40 of his hunger strike.

“Kamran Ahmed, Heba Muraisi, Teuta Hoxha and Lewie Chiaramello are still on hunger strike, despite Kamran being hospitalised for the third time since being on hunger strike. Heba Muraisi has stated she will not end her hunger strike unless she is moved back to HMP Bronzefield where she was initially held before being abruptly moved to HMP New Hall, miles away from her family and support system. Today, Teuta Hoxha was denied bail on compassionate grounds. Lewie Chiaramello continues to fast intermittently despite being type 1 diabetic, which is having an impact on his health in a critical way as he experiences confusion, dizziness, and weakness. 

Alhough the number of hunger strikers have decreased, the hunger strikers have began legal proceedings against David Lammy, citing a violation of government policies on hunger striking as well as a lack of response to the hunger strikers, despite sending multiple letters to the Secretary of State.”_prisonersforpalestine.org December 23, 2025

SUPPORT THE HUNGER STRIKERS. PICKET THE BRITISH CONSULATE.

British Consulate General New York (885 2nd Ave). Manhattan, New York City. Friday, January 2, 2026. 4 PM – 6 PM.

“Join NYIrish4Palestine in support of the 8 UK political prisoners who are on hunger strike, risking their lives to demand:
deproscribe Palestine Action
Shut Elbit down
right to a fair trial
end the censorship

These 8 hunger strikers are part of the Filton 24 — activists who have been imprisoned without trial for over a year for taking a stand against the UK’s role in manufacturing the weapons used to massacre Palestinian families in Gaza.

Their primary target has been Elbit Systems, the largest israeli weapons company, and to shut it down and kick it out of the UK.

The collective hunger strike was launched 43 days ago by Qesser Zuhrah and Amu Gib. Since then Heba Muraisi, Jon Cink, Tueta Hoxha, Kamran Ahmed, Lewie Chiaramello and Umer Khalid have joined. Their hunger strike is the largest strike in the UK in over 40 years. Five of the hunger strikers have already been hospitalized. Some are at risk of imminent death. All of them in critical condition.

From the UK to Palestine, from the Filton 24 to Marwan Barghouti to Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya to the 10,000 Palestinians in the occupation’s dungeons, the struggle of prisoners is a global struggle against zionism, imperialism and injustice.

We invite all NYC organizations and activists to join, and particularly call on the Irish community to honor the past sacrifices of the H Block hunger strikers with present and unwavering solidarity with the Filton 24.

See you at the Consulate.”_New York Irish for Palestine

Within Our Lifetime and Writers Against the War on Gaza organized the “FREE THEM ALL: NYC PICKET & RALLY IN SUPPORT OF THE UK HUNGER STRIKERS” outside the British Consulate General New York (885 2nd Ave) in Manhattan, New York City, on December 15, 2025.

The Black Alliance for Peace Solidarity Network stands in absolute solidarity with the ongoing collective hunger strike in British prisons by Prisoners for Palestine. Of the 33 prisoners in Britain held without bail under the “Terrorism” Act for their direct actions against the Zionist genocide in Palestine.

DBNY JANUARY MONTH OF ACTION — SHUT DOWN IOF/ICE WEAPON SUPPLIERS

“In this new year of 2026, the DBNY community urges the Palestine solidarity movement, the anti-deportation movement, and all people of conscience to join the material struggle to EVICT EASY AERIAL, EVICT CRYE PRECISION and EJECT ELBIT SYSTEMS.

The Israeli Occupying Forces are continuing their genocidal rampage in Gaza! The pretend ceasefire is constantly violated, as the IOF continues to bomb people and block aid. All this while settlers storm and terrorize the West Bank villages with plans to annex the land from the indigenous Palestinians.

It is time to deepen our commitment to stopping genocide and deportations, and escalate the tactics we use against them. With Zohran Mamdani’s inauguration and the final BNY board meeting before Easy Aerial’s lease renewal approaching, NOW is the time to apply pressure to have our demands met. We’re coming up on one year of Trump’s fascist administration and racist deportation agenda. We can no longer engage in demonstrations and symbolic actions which fizzle out, lack strategic vision, and are unwinnable while our neighbors are kidnapped. We must come together to strategize, escalate, and materially impact their operations.

Thu, Jan 1: City Alert
Wed, Jan 7: Outreach
Sat, Jan 10: Eject Elbit Protest
Thu, Jan 15: DBNY Teach-In
Sun, Jan 18: Neighborhood Alert
Tue, Jan 20 – Sat, Jan 24: Eject Elbit Week of Action

GENOCIDE + DEPORTATION PROFITEERS OUT OF NEW YORK CITY NOW!
EVICT EASY AERIAL. EVICT CRYE PRECISION. EJECT ELBIT SYSTEMS.”_DEMILITARIZE BROOKLYN NAVY YARD!

WILL ZOHRAN MAMDANI DO THE RIGHT THING?

“Join DBNY on Thursday, January 1st 11:00 am at Zuccotti Park. We will be there for 20 minutes only before breaking out into small groups to flyer Zohran Mamdani’s Inaguartion attendees at planned locations to ask a simple question: WILL ZOHRAN MAMDANI DO THE RIGHT THING?

On January 1st, Zohran Mamdani will become the biggest landlord of weapons manufacturing in New York City: A title he will maintain unless the people can use their power to stop him. We will be informing New Yorkers about the Demilitarize Brooklyn Navy Yard campaign, the direct power the NYC Mayor has over Navy Yard and his power to evict genocide and deportation profiteers from our city-owned land immediately.”_DEMILITARIZE BROOKLYN NAVY YARD!
