Farah Hajj Hassan | How Jewish anti-Zionist movements are leading the fight for Palestine against the Israeli apartheid regime and how alternative media is playing a bigger role than ever in giving these voices a platform they never had. | On October 19, nearly two weeks after “Israel” began its onslaught on Gaza, more than a thousand protesters stood outside the US capitol demanding the US call for a ceasefire to the slaughter. ■ No traditional Palestinian chants or Keffiyehs in sight, rather scores of Jewish Americans sporting black t-shirts that read “not in our name.” ■ In recent months, history has seen many "firsts." Coordinated attacks from the Axis of Resistance, the penetration of the Israeli "border" by fearless Palestinian resistance members, and a global campaign for BDS and Palestinian rights awareness. ■ But perhaps most impressive of all, and most unprecedented, is the very support extended from the brotherly arm of the Jewish people opposing the occupation. An unlikely ally for the struggle of Palestine, but a crucial one in the last 6 months.
