The UK government intends to classify Palestine Action, a young activist movement opposing Israel's actions in Gaza, as a terrorist group. Many members face imprisonment, yet widespread protests demonstrate strong public support. Polls indicate that over half of Britons oppose Israel's actions, with a large majority viewing them as genocide. This shows a significant disconnect between media narratives and public sentiment. Whereas past activists resorted to armed resistance, Palestine Action employs nonviolent methods, challenging British complicity in what they view as genocide.
A recent poll found that 55 percent of Britons are against Israel's war on Gaza. A significant number of those opponents, 82 percent, said Israel's actions amount to genocide.
Despite the terrorist label and the threat of imprisonment, tens of thousands across the country have taken to the streets chanting, 'We are all Palestine Action.'
Palestine Action has used only nonviolent direct action—spray-painting warplanes, occupying factories, and disrupting business as usual—to confront British complicity in genocide.
Something fundamental is shifting. There is a gaping disconnect between the media's narrative and the views of common people, who reject ministerial spin.
