"The US plan for Gaza, imposed on behalf of Israel’s fascist government, inherently entrenches Israel’s illegal occupation and the denial of Palestinian rights, particularly the right to self determination, the right of return and reparation for refugees, and the right of the entire Indigenous people of Palestine to live in freedom, justice and equality, without occupation or apartheid.

The plan seeks, among other things, to create a so-called “Board of Peace” and an “International Stabilization Force” (ISF), effectively setting up a colonial protectorate to safeguard Israel’s illegal occupation and ensure most of Gaza remains uninhabitable. Falsely claiming that “the parties have accepted” Trump’s “Comprehensive Plan” (Para. 1, UNSC Res. 2803), and thereby ignoring the overwhelming Palestinian consensus in rejecting the authority of any US-Israeli controlled foreign government in Gaza, the UNSC resolution seeks to legitimize a US-Israeli puppet government. This is in stark violation of the prohibition on the use of force under Article 2(4) of the UN Charter as well as of the Palestinian right to self-determination, sovereignty, and territorial integrity under Articles 1(2), 2(4), and 55 of the UN Charter.

The US-Israeli plan is also in evident breach of the Genocide Convention, the Apartheid convention, and the Geneva Conventions. All of these international instruments confer stringent legal obligations for all States vis-a-vis Palestine by virtue of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) Provisional Measures Order of 26 January 2024, ICJ Advisory Opinion of 19 July 2024, UNGA Resolution of 18 September 2024. The Security Council’s adoption of major parts of this colonial plan therefore further erodes its already-declining credibility and feeds into the US-Israeli led demolition of international law to which other colonial powers, such as the UK and Germany, have contributed.

The U.S and Israel hope to achieve through this plan what their genocide has so far failed to induce–the ethnic cleansing of most Palestinians from Gaza. It also explicitly seeks to suppress all forms of Palestinian resistance to Israel’s colonial regime, creating concentration camps controlled by the ISF and Israel."

#NationalDayOfMourning

By #UnitedAmericanIndiansOfNewEngland (#UAINE) Updated November 22, 2025 - #Resist!

"Since 1970, Indigenous people & their allies have gathered at noon on Cole’s Hill in Plymouth to commemorate a National Day of Mourning on the US Thanksgiving holiday. Many Native people do not celebrate the arrival of the Pilgrims & other European settlers. Thanksgiving Day is a reminder of the genocide of millions of Native people, the theft of Native lands and the erasure of Native cultures. Participants in National Day of Mourning honor Indigenous ancestors and Native resilience. It is a day of remembrance and spiritual connection, as well as a protest against the racism and oppression that Indigenous people continue to experience worldwide.

National Day of Mourning
Thursday, November 27, 2025
12:00 Noon
Cole’s Hill (above #PlymouthRock), #PlymouthMA

Join us as we continue to create a true awareness of Native peoples and history. Help shatter the untrue image of the Pilgrims, and the unjust system based on #WhiteSupremacy, #SettlerColonialism, #sexism, #homophobia and the profit-driven destruction of the Earth that they and other European settlers introduced to these shores.

#Solidarity with #IndigenousStruggles throughout the world!

From #TurtleIsland to #Palestine, #Colonialism is a Crime!

While many supporters will attend in person, we will also Livestream the event from Plymouth.

#NDOM2025 #NoThanksNoGiving

No sit-down social, but box lunches will be available.
Masks required.

What is National Day of Mourning?

An annual tradition since 1970, National Day of Mourning is a solemn, spiritual and highly political day. Many of us fast from sundown the day before through the afternoon of that day (and have a social after #NDOM so that participants in NDOM can break their fasts). We are mourning our ancestors and the #genocide of our peoples and the theft of our lands. NDOM is a day when we mourn, but we also feel our strength in action and solidarity.

When and where is Day of Mourning?

Thursday, November 27, 2025 (U.S. “thanksgiving” day) at Cole’s Hill, Plymouth, Massachusetts, 12 noon SHARP. Cole’s Hill is the hill above Plymouth Rock in the Plymouth historic waterfront area. The rallies and marches will last until approximately 3 pm.

Will there be a march?

Yes, there will be a march through the historic district of Plymouth. Plymouth agreed, as part of the settlement of 10/19/98, that UAINE may march on National Day of Mourning without the need for a permit as long as we give the town advance notice.

Program

Although we very much welcome our non-Native supporters to join us, it is a day when only Indigenous people speak about our history and the struggles that are taking place throughout the Americas. Speakers are by invitation only. This year’s NDOM will be livestreamed from Plymouth.

Note that NDOM is not a powwow or commercial event, so we ask that people do not sell merchandise or distribute leaflets at the outdoor program. We will have UAINE t-shirts available for sale following the march.
We also ask that you do not eat (unless you must do so for medical reasons) at the outdoor speak-out and march out of respect for the participants who are fasting.
Dress for the weather!

Social

There will be box lunches available for distribution after the march (turkey and vegan), but we will not have a full sit-down social.

Livestream

If you cannot get to Plymouth, you can watch ourlivestream!"

Nearly everyone knows of the #Vietnam war being fought by the US, nearly nobody knows they continued a war the French started. Half #colonialism half anti-communism. Or are they both natural characteristics of capitalism?

A LOT of words to say little more than “No true Scotsman…” This is contemporary #Christian #apologetics and it simply does not hold. Every denomination this article lists as “mainline” or progressive tried their hands at residential schools or slavery or any of the other greatest hits of #colonialism .

There is lost recorded history of the partition of India. Ethic violence from Hindu extremists.

It has many similarities with the horrific partition of Mandatory Palestine.

Hey everyone! My latest newsletter, as stated in this images, is out on #substack:

It focuses on the #democraticparty victories, #queer people under attack, the compromise folly of Democrats to end the #governmentshutdown, recent #publicopinion polls, an insidious proposed book ban in #Tennessee (which is justified with cooperation of the state's #archivist!), the departure of a terrible politician (you probably know who), the U.N.'s greenlight for #colonialism in #Gaza, which violates international law and dooms #Palestinians, and much more.

“In the twenty-first century, at least one trans woman is brutally murdered every single day.This means that across the three years I researched this history, the vibrant lives of an estimated 1,000 of my sisters have been stolen.”

Just like the Ukraine peace plan, the Gaza one only has the interests of one party in mind.

Walcott's epic poetic work is at once a refiguring of Homer and the colonial history of St. Lucia, of the indigenous everywhere, of the myths which mark poet and people. An extraordinary layering of all.
