Israel Trains ICE Agents
In the months preceding Good’s death, ICE agents had opened fire on people at least nine times across multiple states, killing at least four other individuals during deportation operations. Masked ICE squads have been snatching people off the streets, kicking down doors in morning raids, and devastating neighborhoods. How did we get here? How did an American agency come to behave like an occupying army? Follow the trail to ‘Tel Aviv’ and Jerusalem. For decades, U.S. law enforcement, including local police, federal agents, and ICE officers, have been training directly with the Zionist army. In fact, internal documents obtained by activists show that “well over a thousand” U.S. police chiefs, sheriffs and federal agents (from the FBI, DHS, and ICE) have flown to ‘Israel’ for training in surveillance, racial profiling, crowd control, detention, and deportation.
Who Is The Board of Peace?
After two years of genocide by the Zionist war machine, the very architects and enablers of these war crimes now have the audacity to pose as ‘peacemakers’. The American empire, chief patron of ‘Israel’s’ brutal campaign, dares to propose a so-called “Board of Peace” to rule Gaza in the genocide’s aftermath.
It was U.S. weapons, money, and diplomatic cover that enabled ‘Israel’s’ bloody campaign. The American empire stood by, vetoing ceasefires and arming the occupation, as Gaza was turned into scorched earth. Now, under the guise of a ‘so-called’ ceasefire, in which Zionist forces have continued their genocidal campaign, the U.S. wants to “manage” what they helped destroy.
Should We Support Zohran Mamdani?
As a Palestinian Muslim led movement, we view this moment through our faith. Islam teaches us both to celebrate good and to hold one another accountable. This is a balance rooted in the Sunnah. The Prophet (SAW) taught that “the best type of jihad is speaking a true word in the presence of a tyrant ruler.”
In the spirit of praising what is praiseworthy, we celebrate Mamdani’s achievement over Cuomo and recognize the virtues he may bring to City Hall. He is, by many accounts, a principled community organizer-turned-politician whose focus has been serving the people. He also refused to bow to coercive pro-Israel ultimatums, even rejecting the political ritual of proving loyalty through a trip to ‘Israel’.
How ICE Targets Migrants
After 9/11, the U.S. transformed immigration into a “national security” project—building ICE into a machinery of raids, surveillance, detention, and deportation. This piece traces how that system targets racialized communities and mirrors the same logic of control and dispossession perfected under Zionist occupation in Palestine—then ends with a clear call to action for solidarity and dismantling.
