It’s a State of Resistance
The group no longer exists.
Their website? Taken down.
Their socials? Deleted.
Their name? Proscribed — a terrorist offence in Britain.
And yet, an 83-year-old priest was just arrested for holding a sign saying she supports them. Not doing anything — just holding a sign.
This isn’t about preventing future sabotage. It’s about criminalising memory. Making support retroactive. Turning solidarity into sedition.
It’s Orwellian in the truest sense — the state has banned an idea. An idea that dared to act. That shut down three Israeli weapons factories. That cost Elbit Systems billions. That won. And now the government is trying to erase it.
But you can’t ban a tactic.
You can’t outlaw resistance.
And you sure as hell can’t prosecute a memory.
Say it with me: I support Palestine Action.
1. The Tactic They Couldn’t Beat
In five years, this direct action network didn’t just make noise. It made history. By targeting the Israeli weapons industry, Palestine Action managed to:
- Force the closure of three weapons factories
- Disrupt logistics across multiple UK sites
- Pressurise over a dozen companies to cut ties with Elbit Systems
- Cost Elbit Systems billions in lost contracts
Let’s be honest — that’s exactly why they’ve been banned.
The government didn’t proscribe them because they were dangerous.
They proscribed them because they were effective.
The message is clear: if you hit British foreign policy where it hurts — the weapons, the trade, the colonial war machine — you will be silenced.
2. A Legal Line in the Sand
Here’s the reality. The laws brought in after World War II — the Geneva Conventions, the Nuremberg Principles, the whole post-war international legal order — were supposed to stop this kind of thing from ever happening again.
A government bombing foreign countries without parliamentary approval?
Using military bases like RAF Brize Norton to refuel Israeli jets en route to attack a trapped civilian population in Gaza?
Criminalising civil disobedience as terrorism?
These aren’t just policies. They’re the textbook definition of authoritarianism.
Meanwhile, nobody’s declared war. Nobody even voted on it.
But in Yemen, British bombs have rained down. And now, according to reports, the same aircraft targeted by Palestine Action may have been involved in those strikes — and weren’t even RAF planes, but privately leased craft.
When did we start renting out our war crimes?
3. The Criminalisation of Resistance
The UK government claims it’s only banning an organisation. But the organisation is gone.
Palestine Action has disbanded. Its socials have vanished. Its infrastructure has been dismantled.
So what’s actually illegal now?
Displaying a sticker.
Retweeting a message.
Liking a post.
Holding a sign.
If you say you support the tactic of Palestine Action, you’re now flirting with a terror charge. That’s not even guilt by association — it’s guilt by recollection.
We’re arresting priests. We’re silencing dissent. We’re banning beliefs.
If throwing paint on a wall is terrorism, Banksy’s already doing life without parole.
4. Memory Crimes and Media Complicity
We are being told to forget. To look the other way while a government funded by weapons manufacturers criminalises the very notion of resistance.
Meanwhile, the media play their part, orchestrating a 21st-century version of Orwell’s Two Minutes Hate. Only now, it’s permanent.
You’re not meant to question the facts — just hate the targets.
They won’t show you Gaza’s mass graves. But they’ll show you a building sprayed with red paint and call it an attack on democracy.
5. A Moment of Reckoning
The UN, Liberty, Amnesty International — all of them warned this move takes us down a dangerous path. The laws being passed right now aren’t just morally indefensible. They’re legally unsustainable.
We are rapidly approaching a tipping point. Either this house of cards collapses, and we get a Nuremberg 2.0 — or we descend into a future where even remembering resistance becomes a criminal act.
And this is what scares me most.
Because history is being rewritten in real time. And most people are too busy, too exhausted, or too scared to notice.
But here’s the thing: we’re not in the 20th century anymore.
We’re in the age of the internet. Of mass communication.
Of AI — and other tools that can’t be censored or corrupted so easily.
The truth is coming out. The lies are unraveling. Fast.
And when that tide turns — really turns — those who thought they were protected will have nowhere left to hide.
5.5. WeDoNotComply: The Line Has Been Drawn
This isn’t just about Palestine Action. Across the country, a new line is being drawn — and people are beginning to cross it. The WeDoNotComply.org campaign has emerged as a rallying point for civil resistance, urging the public to reject the authoritarian overreach now unfolding in real time. It’s not about one group anymore. It’s about everyone who refuses to be silenced.
This is our Spartacus moment.
6. Final Word
You want to arrest people for having a sticker? You want to criminalise solidarity? You want to erase one of the most effective non-violent resistance movements this country has seen in decades?
Good luck with that.
Because Palestine Action isn’t a group anymore. It’s a state of resistance.
And like they said:
Collectively, we will resist. And ultimately, we will win.
