A lot of people wonder how the pro-Palestine/Anti-Israel protests started within hours of the Hamas terror attack and often included preprinted posters and ready made "genocide" chants. How was it so organized and "spontaneous"?

I, and other journalists, are chasing the 'follow the money' story behind the movement that appeared "out of nowhere" on October 8.

This past week, an @NGOmonitor report provided the data inside the UK experience. It maps 40 major post-October 7 protest and mobilization campaigns in the UK — and it undercuts the "spontaneous grassroots reaction" narrative that took hold right after Hamas's October 7 massacre.

The findings: At least 11 of the 40 organizations mapped have links to extremist actors — the Iranian regime and IRGC, Hamas, Hezbollah, the PFLP, or the Muslim Brotherhood — either directly or through officials who met or cooperated with them.

Leadership overlaps heavily across the six primary coordinating groups. Jeremy Corbyn—the antisemitism former Labour Party leader— alone holds posts in three of them simultaneously. The funding for Corbyn's own group, the People's Forum UK, is undisclosed.

Youth recruitment is a high priority — Amnesty International UK is cited for running an activism-training program aimed at UK youth; Friends of Al-Aqsa for youth-mobilization messaging.

—Of the 40 groups, only 10 are registered charities.
—Thirteen operate completely outside any formal UK regulatory framework — while still soliciting public donations.
—Nineteen receive UK government funding via the FCDO or Gift Aid. At least 11 draw taxpayer money from other governments too, including the US and several EU states.
—Funding also flows from major US progressive foundations — Open Society, Rockefeller Brothers Fund among them — plus, per the report, cryptocurrency channels used by CAGE and Palestine Action, the latter now a proscribed organization under UK law as of a June 2026 Court of Appeal ruling.

What the NGO Monitor report shows is a well-funded, coordinated infrastructure that existed before October 7 and moved fast because it was already built — organizationally, financially, and rhetorically — around "genocide" messaging with no space made for Israeli victims.

According to a source for the New York Post, Ro Khanna was invited to meet freed hostages and survivors of October 7th.

Khanna's team didn't even bother to respond.

His team was also offered an opportunity to meet with Druze civilians in the Golan Heights and a briefing on how aid is currently getting into Gaza. They didn't take it.

Now, if Ro Khanna genuinely believes that aid is not properly getting into Gaza, why not go to the briefing? If he thinks Israel is lying, wouldn't that be the perfect time to get proof?

But he didn't go, because those aren't his intentions. He didn't want to meet with victims of Hamas or those trying to get as much aid into Gaza as they can because they contradict his narrative.

And the narrative is all that matters.

I mean, they're clearly going to go for it. Why would they 'let' themselves lose the midterms?

They can read polling. They are going to get creamed. Trump got away with doing Jan. 6th, so why wouldn't he just keep going for it?

[Darth Putin @DarthPutinKGB]

A day ago we killed around 30 civilians in Kiev. Apparently this isn't worth a mention on @amnesty's main account.

Wonder why.

[AnthonyAndrews @anthon7yandrews]

You only have to read the indictment to know Trump committed Espionage and Obstruction of Justice. I have no doubt Jack Smith will prove TREASON in his Volume 2 report. Every American should at least take the time to read this indictment.

[Columbia Jewish & Israeli Students ✡️🇮🇱 @CUJewsIsraelis]

Here are some things Mahmoud actually said, including justifying Oct 7th and terrorism. https://t.co/knfwHTrQbG
Mahmoud also led and founded CUAD, an organization that has repeatedly called for violence and harassed Jewish students, including with slurs.
Notably, he also got some Columbia faculty to commit perjury on his behalf by claiming that he was never part of CUAD and was just a “negotiator”, despite the fact that he directed nearly every CUAD protest and Mohsen Mahdawi said they led it together.

Look at the terror tunnels under the hospitals in the Gaza Strip. They been there for years and it’s where the terrorists hide while they leave their families above ground.

This clip is the European hospital in Gaza.

Crickets on the court docket. Justice Dept has responded to court order, nor have they released more of the files

🚨Major admission by @pressfreedom. CPJ is finally conducting a full review of its Gaza “journalist” fatality database after Hamas & PIJ themselves exposed many listed “journalists” as their own fighters. Israel said this all along and Hamas/PIJ's own martyr notices proved it.

Friendly reminder that the DSA is not only 64% Male and 85% White, but also, only 56% percent identify as “anti-racist” and only 41% identify as “feminist” — but please, tell me how they aren’t a white male grievance populist organization.
