Fox News Investigation Reveals Coordinated Global Network Behind Anti-Israel Protests

An investigation by Fox News has uncovered a coordinated international network of organizations orchestrating anti-Israel protests worldwide. The network reportedly prepares slogans, banners, instructions for blocking public spaces, and strategies for media engagement and political lobbying well in advance of demonstrations. Fox News identified 179 organizations within this coalition, which had planned 322 events over a three-day period ending October 11. Documents obtained by the network instructed participants to "block public squares," "surround government buildings," and "block corporate centers involved in the events," characterizing the actions as more than just symbolic protests.

The international campaign is centered around three main groups: the Global Alliance for Palestine, the Movement Against Apartheid Supporting Palestine, and the Global Coalition to End the Occupation of Palestine. The Global Alliance, established in London in July 2025, aims to be a "truly international people's front for the liberation of Palestine." Its website lists logos from 179 participating organizations from various countries.

Planned events included a "Path of Intifada" march in St. John's, Canada, and protests by the "Intifada Youth Association of Bangladesh" and "Social Intifada" in South Africa. The use of the term "intifada," historically linked to Palestinian uprisings against Israel, is interpreted by activists as a call for resistance. An August campaign launch statement outlined a plan for synchronized student and workplace demonstrations, rallies, and civil disobedience across multiple continents, aiming to reinsert Israel's military actions against Palestinians into the international news agenda and shape public opinion.

Protesters were provided with banners in seven languages and a list of suggested slogans, including "Genocide in Gaza," "Let Gaza Live!," and "End the Genocide. Protect the Land." Some materials depicted children and used phrases like "Silence Normalizes" alongside "genocide." The campaign materials presented accusations of genocide and international law violations as established facts, with one document stating, "There is no genocide in Gaza." Instructions also advised using language that is "measured, convincing, insistent, and impossible to ignore."

Organizational directives extended to disrupting the normal functioning of institutions and companies through rallies, pickets, sit-ins, and "peaceful blockades." Synchronized actions at workplaces and universities, such as silent walkouts and nighttime projections, were also proposed. A logistical plan detailed the need for funding, transportation, legal aid, and participant support. The international steering committee reportedly includes figures like former British Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn, former Greek Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis, and former Sinn Féin leader Gerry Adams.

CodePink, a US-based non-profit, is among the coalition members. Fox News reported that CodePink received $1.33 million from tech entrepreneur Neville Roy Singham, who has reportedly directed $278 million to a network of non-profits under scrutiny by a U.S. House committee for potential ties to foreign interests, including China's Communist Party. CodePink co-founder Medea Benjamin and coordinator Olivia DiNucci reportedly urged participants to join a "feminist bloc" near the Library of Congress, while another co-founder, Jodie Evans, who is married to Singham, was seen participating in an anti-Israel march. Evans stated that Singham supports CodePink's work against violence.

The campaign's goals include demanding an immediate arms embargo on Israel, comprehensive sanctions, and the suspension of trade agreements. The demand to end the "occupation" remains unspecified regarding its scope, raising concerns about slogans like "From the river to the sea." The network also provided templates for contacting lawmakers, submitting coordinated appeals to institutions, and securing meetings with elected officials, along with media kits for press releases and social media content.
