Last week, the gov’t of Israel declared six leading Palestinian human rights groups as "terrorist institutions," subjecting them to harsh sanctions under Israeli law. Targeted were Addameer Prisoner Support and Human Rights Association, Al-Haq, Defense for Children International-Palestine, Bisan Centre for Research and Development, Union of Palestinian Women’s Committees, and Union of Agricultural Work Committees.
This latest attack is part of an ongoing strategy to criminalize and end any resistance to Israel’s apartheid gov’t and settler violence. We stand in full solidarity with the organizations Israel has targeted and call on all people of conscience to condemn Israel’s actions. Tell Rep. Antonio Delgado and senators Schumer and Gillibrand: Defend Palestinian Human Rights Organizations!
