Back in the U.S., hundreds of activists partially shut down the International Terminal of San Francisco International Airport Wednesday to demand a permanent ceasefire in Gaza and that the U.S. stop arming Israel. Protesters blocked outside traffic and security check-in, forcing SFO to close certain checkpoints and roadways. One traveler stopped to thank the protesters for the disruption.

Patricia: “I am slightly inconvenienced, so my trip doesn’t go exactly as planned. But I still have a life. I can still live. I’m not dying. I’m not starving. These people are starving.”

Here in New York, activists successfully canceled a planned real estate event in Brooklyn this week that sought to sell homes built on illegal settlements in the occupied West Bank. This came just days after hundreds of activists in New Jersey marched through the streets of Teaneck on Sunday to protest a similar real estate fair as it was taking place in a synagogue.
