Last year a Belfast anarchist travelled to the West Bank to work with the International Solidarity Movement and Palestinians and wrote this report on his impressions of the Palestinian struggle. “The South African apartheid regime never engaged in the sort of repression Israel is inflicting on the Palestinians. For all the evils and atrocities of apartheid, the government never sent tanks into black towns. It never used gunships, bombers, or missiles against black towns or Bastustans. "What we are witnessing in the occupied territories- Israel’s penal colonies- is the invisible and daily killing of the sick and wounded who are deprived of medical care, of the weak who cannot survive in the new poverty conditions, and those of us who are approaching starvation” (Ronnie Kasrils, S.Africa’s minister of water affairs, Al Ahram Weekly, p175). read full story / add a comment

As Soya farmers move in, small farmers have been violently displaced from their land or forced to abandon it as the agrochemicals used to cultivate Soya destroy their crops and have serious implications on their health. Those who have stayed on the land and resist, face repression and death threats. But where else can they go? What else can they do? read full story / add a comment
