AJP Action is proud to endorse Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib’s historic resolution, H.Res. 876, which does what our government has shamefully refused to do: formally recognize the Israeli state’s deliberate and systematic destruction of the Palestinian people in Gaza for what it is. This is not a matter of opinion or political debate. It is a…
For over nine months, Mohammed Ibrahim, a 16-year-old American citizen from Florida, has been illegally imprisoned and tortured by Israel. Now, his trial has been postponed to December 15th, a deliberate delay that will force him to spend one day shy of ten months behind bars for an accusation of throwing stones, a charge he…
While members of Congress are on break from the Capitol, Palestinians in Gaza are continuing to be starved, bombed, and displaced. In just 24 hours, three Palestinians have starved to death, and at least 56 Palestinians, including 22 people seeking aid, were killed in Israeli attacks across Gaza. Israel is still weaponizing starvation, targeting displacement…
Mohammed Ibrahim, a 16-year-old American citizen from Palm Bay, Florida, has been illegally locked in Israel’s military prison system since February 2025. Israeli occupation soldiers kidnapped him from his family’s home in al-Mazra’a ash-Sharqiya, near Ramallah, in the occupied Palestinian West Bank, three weeks after he arrived to visit relatives. Israel claims he threw stones…
Americans for Justice in Palestine Action (AJP Action) strongly condemns the Israeli government’s systematic use of mass starvation against the Palestinian population in Gaza. With deliberate and precise measures, including the blockade and militarized distribution of humanitarian aid, Israel is intentionally inflicting catastrophic suffering upon over two million Palestinians, most of whom are children, and…
President Trump recently announced that Israel has supposedly accepted the “necessary conditions” for a 60-day ceasefire in Gaza. This ceasefire must not be another mirage. Israel has already shattered previous agreements and launched renewed bombing campaigns during supposed “pauses.” Any legitimate ceasefire must be honored in full, without loopholes or backdoor military operations. If Israel…
Last week, Israel launched a massive, unprovoked assault on Iran, killing over 220 people, including civilians, scientists, and government officials. These strikes, timed to destroy U.S.-Iran nuclear negotiations, have pushed the region to the brink of full-scale war. And now, President Trump is threatening to drag the United States deeper into this reckless conflict. This…
Israel has unleashed a catastrophic assault on Iranian cities, deliberately targeting residential neighborhoods and civilian areas with U.S.-supplied weapons. Iranian health officials report at least 78 civilians killed, including children, with 329 injured, as American-made bombs are devastating apartment complexes and homes across Tehran. This is not a military operation; instead, it is an attack…
On June 1st, the Madleen (a ship organized by the Freedom Flotilla Coalition) departed from Catania, Italy, carrying unarmed civilians and life-saving humanitarian aid to Palestinians trapped in Gaza. On board are parliamentarians, journalists, lawyers, and human rights defenders, risking their lives to deliver food, medicine, and baby formula to a population deliberately starved by…
Since March 2nd, after entirely violating the ceasefire, the apartheid state of Israel has imposed a total blockade on the already besieged Gaza Strip, completely sealing it off from the outside world. No food. No fuel. No medical aid. No water. The flow of humanitarian assistance has been entirely strangled. This is not a military…
AJP Action is heartbroken and furious over the killing of 14-year-old Amer Rabee, a Palestinian American from New Jersey, who was shot and killed by Israeli occupation forces in the occupied West Bank on Sunday, April 6th. Amer traveled to his homeland to visit family and now he won’t return. His death is not an…
President Donald Trump has recently announced plans to ethnically cleanse Gaza and “take over” the Gaza Strip. Gaza is not his to take. Gaza is the indigenous and permanent homeland of Palestinians, internationally recognized as a sovereign Palestinian territory. Its 2.4 million inhabitants have already endured an unrelenting genocide backed by the United States, and…
The U.S. Senate is now considering H.R.23, the “Illegitimate Court Counteraction Act.” This bill has already passed the House and threatens to impose harsh sanctions on the International Criminal Court (ICC) for investigating credible war crimes, including genocide, committed by Israeli officials in Gaza. If passed, this legislation would shield war criminals from accountability and…
Israel’s genocide in Gaza has been ongoing for nearly 500 days, and U.S. citizens and their immediate relatives remain trapped within the Gaza Strip. Americans for Justice in Palestine Action (AJP Action) is calling on the Biden Administration and Congress to act urgently to ensure the safety of these individuals before the end of this…
The 2024 election results have sent an unequivocal message: The Biden administration's policies on Gaza have led to a significant loss of support among key voter groups, culminating in a huge defeat at the polls. Communities across the nation—particularly Arab and Muslim Americans, alongside a broad coalition of young and progressive voters—chose not to support…
Next week, the U.S. Senate is set to make history by voting on the Joint Resolutions of Disapproval (JRD) introduced by Senators Bernie Sanders, Peter Welch, and Jeff Merkley, aiming to block over $22 billion in arms sales to Israel. This vote marks the first time Congress will consider halting a major weapons sale to…
AJP Action strongly condemns Israel’s decision to ban the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) from operating within occupied Palestine and withdraw from the 1967 agreement recognizing the agency. This malicious action, combined with the continued attacks on critical medical facilities in Gaza, places the lives of millions of Palestinians at unprecedented risk. The…
Alarming reports have come out in the past few weeks revealing that the Biden administration is supporting a joint U.S.-Israeli plan to use private contractors, including CIA-trained operatives, to control aid distribution in Gaza. This plan will establish internment camps for Palestinians and will directly involve the U.S. in human rights abuses while corporatizing the…
