Israel-Palestine in 2025: A Conversation with Organizers & Analysts About the Next U.S. Administration
As the U.S. prepares for a presidential transition in 2025, many are wondering how evolving political dynamics in Washington could shape global movements defending human rights and freedom of expression—including the Palestinian rights movement.
With President-elect Trump set to take office for a second time, this briefing will gather organizers, political analysts and legal experts to examine the trajectory of the movement for Palestinian rights, including efforts to stop the genocide in Gaza and escalating violence in the region.
Join us on Thursday, November 21 at 1:00 pm ET / 8:00 pm Jerusalem time for a conversation on evolving strategies, challenges and priorities in the context of potential policy shifts under a Trump administration. The conversation will touch on U.S. foreign policy as well as domestic policies and dynamics impacting advocates of Palestinian rights.
The briefing will feature the following speakers:
- Fadi Quran, Al-Shabaka policy member, former political prisoner and West Bank-based Palestinian community organizer.
- Matt Duss, executive vice president at the Center for International Policy, which works to advance a more peaceful, just and sustainable U.S. approach to foreign policy.
- Iman Abid-Thompson, the director of organizing and advocacy at the US Campaign for Palestinian Rights (USCPR), an organization that provides resources and strategic support to the U.S.-based Palestine solidarity movement.
- Beth Miller, political director at Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP) Action, a multiracial, intergenerational movement of Jews and allies working towards justice and equality for Palestinians and Israelis by transforming U.S. policy.
- Diala Shamas, senior staff attorney at the Center for Constitutional Rights (CCR) where she works on challenging government and law enforcement abuses perpetrated under the guise of national security, both in the U.S. and abroad.
- Suhad Babaa (Moderator), President and Executive Director, Just Vision
We will be taking your questions during the virtual briefing.
This event is sponsored by Just Vision, the Institute for Middle East Understanding (IMEU), Jewish Currents, the Center for International Policy and the Center for Constitutional Rights (CCR).

National Lawyers Guild Webinar: Repression and Dissent of the Palestinian Solidarity Movement in the in the United States
For years, lawmakers have been staging unprecedented attacks on racial and social justice advocacy, passing anti-boycott laws designed to silence those working for an equitable future.
The National Lawyers Guild (NLG) is hosting an urgent and timely conversation for NLG members examining one specific thread of this repression; namely the growing protest movement in the United States against the Israeli government’s war on Gaza. Despite widespread political support in the U.S. for Israel, there is a rising wave of activists demanding an immediate ceasefire and advocating for Palestinian rights. This movement, however, is being met with significant repression, including:
- Expulsion from universities
- Job losses
- Doxxing
- Arrests and police violence
Leading this conversation are senior staff attorney with the ACLU Speech, Privacy, and Technology Project, Brian Hauss, Just Vision’s Outreach Associate and journalist from Gaza, Fadi Abu Shammalah, Cal Poly Humboldt Professor, Gabi Kirk, and union organizer, Matteo Hintz, with moderation by Just Vision’s Education and Communications Specialist, Daniel Nerenberg.

In Context Briefing on Defending Dissent: Palestine, Freedom of Speech and the Future of Protest
As we approach November's historic election and the new semester begins on college campuses, all eyes are on the precarious state of American democracy. Top of mind for many are urgent questions about free speech, dissent and growing concerns surrounding the U.S.'s role in Israel-Palestine. Over the past year, those who criticize Israel's conduct in Gaza have faced extreme repression, including expulsions from their universities, dismissal from employment, doxing and, at times, arrest and violence from police.
Join us on Tuesday, Sept 17 at 11:00 am ET / 6:00 pm Jerusalem time to learn more about growing repression of dissent on Israel-Palestine, a trend that has built over decades and escalated in the past year. From anti-boycott legislation to the recent arrests of student protestors, leading experts will examine how these actions impact American democracy and our right to collectively organize on a range of issues – from Palestinian rights to the environment, racial justice, reproductive rights and beyond – at such a critical juncture.
The briefing will feature the following speakers:
- Fadi Abu Shammalah, Journalist from Gaza and Outreach Associate, Just Vision
- Sabiya Ahamed, Staff Attorney, Palestine Legal -Lara Friedman, President, Foundation for Middle East Peace
- Maria LaHood, Deputy Legal Director, Center for Constitutional Rights

In Context: Briefing on Israel’s Warfare Tactics + Efforts to Halt Arms Transfers
Earlier this month, a +972 Magazine/Local Call investigation revealed that the Israeli military is using an AI machine called “Lavender” to identify human targets with little to no oversight, intentionally bombing them in their homes alongside civilians. The White House noted that it was examining the contents of the investigation, and UN Secretary-General António Guterres expressed that he was “deeply troubled” by the report, adding “No part of life and death decisions which impact entire families should be delegated to the cold calculation of algorithms.” Revelations such as these are fueling global efforts to halt arms transfers and condition military aid to Israel, with pressure particularly mounting on the U.S. and German governments, which are estimated to supply around 99 percent of the arms imported by Israel.
Join this briefing on tomorrow, Apr. 17, 1:00-2:00 p.m. ET / 8:00-9:00 p.m. Jerusalem time for the next installment of “In Context: Briefings on Israel-Palestine,” to hear about the above developments and more by registering here.

Briefing: Killed, Jailed, Censored: Journalists During Israel’s Assault on Gaza
Gaza is the deadliest place to be a journalist today. More than 75% of journalists killed worldwide in 2023 died during Israel’s assault on Gaza. The Committee to Protect Journalists has expressed concern about the Israeli military’s “apparent pattern of targeting journalists,” and the silencing of Palestinian journalists is not limited to Gaza. In the West Bank, Israel’s jailing of Palestinian journalists has reached an all-time high, tying it with Iran as the sixth worst jailer of journalists globally.
Join us on Wednesday, Feb. 28, 1:00-2:00 p.m. ET, to hear about the latest efforts to hold the Israeli government accountable for its assault on journalists, to consider how this lethal environment for journalists is impacting our ability to understand what’s happening on the ground, and to examine what it says about the future of covering conflict zones safely. We will also discuss the challenges that journalists outside of Gaza are facing as they seek to cover the war accurately and ethically, whether based in the U.S. or within Israel itself.
Our speakers include:
- Fadi Abu Shammalah, a Palestinian journalist from Gaza who was recently evacuated with his family to the U.S. via Egypt, and who still has colleagues trying to report what is happening on the ground as Israel closes in on Rafah. He also serves as a Just Vision outreach associate. You can read more about Fadi’s experience in this New York Times op-ed.
- Gypsy Guillén Kaiser, advocacy and communications director for the Committee to Protect Journalists, which is investigating and documenting the plight of Palestinian journalists. Their most recent reports are available here.
- Haggai Matar, executive director of +972 Magazine, an independent, online, nonprofit magazine run by a group of Palestinian and Israeli journalists. He is also co-director, together with Just Vision's Suhad Babaa, of the Hebrew-language news site Local Call, and serves on the board of the Union of Journalists in Israel.
- Karen Attiah, a columnist at The Washington Post who has written and posted extensively about the impact of the current violence on journalists and other civilians (“Where is the outrage over Israel’s killing of journalists in Gaza?”). Karen was the winner of the 2019 George Polk Award as well as the 2019 Journalist of the Year Award from the National Association of Black Journalists. She has been a fierce advocate for accountability and justice since agents of Saudi Arabia killed her late colleague, Saudi-American journalist Jamal Khashoggi.
- Julia Bacha, Just Vision’s creative director and filmmaker (Boycott, Budrus) (Moderator).
We will be taking your questions during the virtual briefing.
This event is sponsored by Just Vision, Institute for Middle East Understanding (IMEU), +972 Magazine, Jewish Currents, the Arab and Middle Eastern Journalists Association (AMEJA), and the Committee to Protect Journalists.

Briefing: The ICJ, Biden Lawsuit & Conditioning U.S. Military Funding to Israel
Friday, January 26, was a pivotal day in the ongoing efforts to halt Israel’s destruction of Gaza and its people. The International Court of Justice responded to South Africa’s request for provisional measures in its genocide case against the State of Israel and, in a courtroom on the other side of the Atlantic, plaintiffs testified before a U.S. federal court in the case of Defense for Children International - Palestine v. Biden, a lawsuit against senior Biden administration officials for their failure to prevent, and for their complicity in, the Israeli government’s unfolding genocide against Palestinians in Gaza.
Join us Tuesday, Jan. 30 at 10:00 am ET to unpack Friday’s legal proceedings, as well as to hear the latest regarding efforts on Capitol Hill to condition U.S. funding to Israel. We will be taking your questions.
Speakers include:

-Chantal Meloni, a criminal lawyer and professor at the Università degli Studi di Milano Statale, Italy who represents victims in Palestine before the International Criminal Court. She is a senior legal advisor to the European Center for Constitutional and Human Rights for the program International Crimes and Accountability.
