Dear friends,

While we hold a collective breath in hopes that the tenuous ceasefire in Gaza will remain, the work has not stopped—and it cannot stop. With the olive harvest this year affected by climate change and unexpected variations in the weather last year, settler attacks are all the more harmful. Israel’s colonial crimes continue unabated across the length of Palestine and into Syria and Lebanon, as usual. We continue to intervene however we can, particularly writing and speaking to translate the situation on the ground to those who are willing to listen and make meaningful interventions themselves, wherever they are.

As always, we can’t do this without you. Not only because it would mean writing emails, articles, and launching campaigns to no one, but because it is the consistent contributions of regular, committed people that has allowed our work to develop over the years. It is those contributions that have allowed us to build resources like our data center, and have made it possible to prepare new offerings we will launch in the upcoming months.

Would you consider becoming a monthly donor by pledging $5, $15, or $25 a month? (For US citizens wanting a tax-deductible contribution, click here.)

Thank you for your support. Whether it is in the form of donations or simply reading our emails, we deeply appreciate it.

Until liberation and return,

Lara Kilani
