Keep readingBehind Enemy Lines NYC is a committed anti-imperialist collective dedicated to confronting the American war machine from within what they term the “belly of the beast.” Rejecting traditional electoral politics and managed dissent, the group focuses on turning state repression into a catalyst for further resistance. They prioritize direct action over symbolic protests, often refusing legal compromises like plea deals to expose the political motivations behind police tactics. Whether challenging the deportation infrastructure of ICE or calling out milestones in imperialism—such as the upcoming 250th anniversary of the United States—the organization seeks to transform widespread disillusionment into organized, sustained disruption aimed at dismantling the infrastructure of U.S. global power and promoting social justice.
We share their message and were pleased to be able to speak with them.
On October 7, 2023, the Palestinian people, led by Hamas, initiated Operation Al-Aqsa Flood. The objective was to break out of the open-air prison that was Gaza, and take the fight to the Zionist State of Israel, and Israel’s imperial master—the United States. The response from the United States and Israel was immediate: bombing operations commenced on October 7th, and by October 9th, Gaza was subjected to a siege by the IDF. On October 27th, the IDF invaded Gaza, initiating the worst genocide of the 21st century, and the worst in Palestine since the Nakba of 1948. Conservative estimates by the Gaza Health Ministry place the death toll in Gaza around 71,000, but the real figure is likely much, much higher.
