Jewish Voice for Peace said it will intensify lobbying for an immediate, full U.S. arms embargo on Israel and press for divestment from companies doing business there.
Several U.S.-based activist groups denounced the Trump-brokered Israel–Hamas ceasefire plan on Thursday, saying that it didn’t go far enough in addressing Palestinian grievances and, in some cases, praising armed resistance.
The Bronx Anti-War Coalition called the deal inadequate and declared, “True peace will only be achieved when the zionist entity crumbles and ceases to exist.”
The group also expressed support for “the bravery” of the al-Qassam Brigades, Palestinian Islamic Jihad and other factions, adding, “We believe Palestine’s liberation will be achieved through armed resistance, and we honor those who fight for it.”
