Gallup Poll showing US change from majority approval (Nov. 2023) to majority disapproval (March 2024) of Israeli military action in Gaza.

Protests, including rallies, demonstrations, campaigns, and vigils, relating to the Gaza war have occurred nationwide across the United States since the conflict's start on October 7, 2023, occurring as part of a broader phenomenon of the Gaza war protests around the world.

In the first ten days of the war, pro-Israeli demonstrations in support of Israel in the wake of the Hamas-led attack and focusing on the Israeli hostage crisis were most common, ^[3] but they have since been outnumbered by pro-Palestinian anti-war protests calling for a ceasefire and an end to the Israeli occupation. ^{[4] [5]} Pro-Palestinian protestors criticized US military and diplomatic support to Israel and Israel's invasion of the Gaza Strip and its war conduct, which some called a genocide. ^[6] These protests included Jewish groups and some US administration staffers.

By December 5, more than 1 million Americans had participated in protest over the conflict, across over 2,600 events: 442 in support of Israel, and 2,100 in support of Palestine. ^{[7] [5]} An escalation of pro-Palestinian protests on university campuses began on April 17, 2024.

Four people have self-immolated in protest of the war: an unidentified woman draped in a Palestinian flag on December 1, 2023, in Atlanta, Georgia, who survived with serious injures; ^[8] and Aaron Bushnell, a 25-year-old serviceman of the United States Air Force, in Washington, D.C., died in hospital on February 25, 2024. ^[9] The third by anti-war activist Matt Nelson occurred in Boston in September 2024. ^{[10] [11]} The fourth occurred in Washington, D.C., in October 2024. ^[12]

National

Pro-Palestine protests were held throughout the United States on Black Friday with activists calling to "shut it down" for Palestine. ^[13] There were protests in Los Angeles; ^[14] Chicago; ^[15] Troy, Michigan; ^[16] Saint Louis, Missouri; ^[17] Estero, Florida; ^[18] and many other cities.

As of December 5, according to Harvard's Nonviolent Action Lab and the Crowd Counting Consortium, more than 1 million Americans had participated in protests over the conflict. ^[19]

"Ceasefire carols" were organized by activists throughout the United States leading up to Christmas 2023. Sarah Abbott who helped organize a carol outside Senator Amy Klobuchar's home was quoted in CBS Minnesota saying, "Our government is funding this genocide, white Christians have historically and currently played major roles in the perpetuation of Zionism, and as people of conscience, we can't stand by silently." ^[20] Ceasefire carols were sung in Minneapolis, Minnesota; Louisville, Kentucky; ^[21] Salt Lake City, Utah; ^[22] and in at least 17 other cities. ^[20]

On December 27, protesters blocked airports, including at John F. Kennedy International Airport and Los Angeles International Airport. ^{[23] [24] [25] [ clarification needed ]}

In February 2024, a joint report by the Center for Constitutional Rights and Palestine Legal found widespread legal attacks against pro-Palestinian activism, describing it as "a dangerous attack on constitutionally protected speech and association". ^[26]

In response to actions taken by the Biden administration in support of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's approach to the war, Muslim and Arab Americans organized a campaign titled "Abandon Biden" to advocate against voting for Biden in the 2024 presidential election. ^[27] Leaders from the United Electrical Workers and United Auto Workers vowed to use their electoral clout to push for a ceasefire. ^[28]

In April 2024, USAF airman Larry Hebert, a member of Veterans for Peace, began a hunger strike to bring attention to starving children in Gaza. ^[29] The Tax Day protests were held on Tax Day (April 15). After the police crackdown of the 2024 Columbia University pro-Palestinian campus occupation on April 18, ^[30] Gaza solidarity encampments spread to multiple campuses across the US, including MIT, Washington University in St. Louis, University of Marland, and Tufts University. ^[31]

Following the 2023 Hamas-led attack on Israel and the Gaza humanitarian crisis, President Biden has faced sustained opposition and event disruptions from a vocal minority ^[32] of progressives, Arab Americans, and Muslims over his handling of the conflict and the creation of a protest vote movement against him. ^[32]

At a campaign rally in Virginia on January 23, 2024, incumbent president Joe Biden was interrupted more than a dozen times by protesters calling for a ceasefire. ^[33] The following day, he was interrupted by anti-war protesters in Washington, D.C., during an endorsement rally held by the United Auto Workers. ^[34] Following these protests, the Biden campaign took "extraordinary" steps to prevent pro-Palestinian protesters from interrupting the president, including avoiding college campuses, hiring private companies to vet attendees, and not disclosing his events' locations ahead of time. ^[35] On March 10, a protester at a Biden campaign event interrupted his speech, stating, "You're a dictator, genocide Joe. Tens of thousands of Palestinians are dead. Children are dying." ^[36] Protesters interrupted Biden speaking on healthcare in North Carolina, telling him, "Hospitals in Gaza are being bombed," to which Biden replied, "They have a point. We need to get a lot more care into Gaza." ^[37]

On March 28, Biden held a fundraiser for his presidential campaign at Radio City Music Hall, accompanied by former Presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton, as well as other celebrities. Biden and the former presidents were repeatedly heckled during the event by pro-Palestine protesters, and a demonstration was held outside the venue to protest the Biden administration's policies in Gaza. According to Within Our Lifetime organizer Nerdeen Kiswani, about 1,000 were in attendance. ^[38] In April 2024, Biden cancelled a planned Iftar due to pushback from invited Muslim American attendees. ^[39] At the 2024 White House Correspondents' Dinner, protesters shouted "Shame on you!" at arriving attendees. ^[40]

Pro-Palestinian protests on university campuses

Further information: 2024 pro-Palestinian protests on university campuses

Universities in the United States with Israel–Hamas war protests since April 2024. Columbia University is marked in red. Other colleges that had encampments are marked in green, and non-encampment protests are marked in blue.

These paragraphs are an excerpt from 2024 pro-Palestinian protests on university campuses.[ edit ]

Pro-Palestinian protests on university campuses escalated in April 2024, spreading in the United States and other countries, as part of wider Gaza war protests that lasted until the summer. The escalation began on April 18 after mass arrests at the Columbia University campus occupation, led by anti-Zionist groups, in which protesters demanded the university's disinvestment from Israel over its alleged genocide in Gaza. Over 3,100 protesters were arrested in the U.S., including faculty members and professors, on over 60 campuses. On May 7, protests spread across Europe with mass arrests in the Netherlands, and five days later, 20 encampments had been established in the United Kingdom and across universities in Australia and Canada.

The different protests' varying demands included severing financial ties with Israel, transparency about financial ties, an end to partnerships with Israeli institutions, and amnesty for protesters. Universities suspended and expelled student protesters, in some cases evicting them from campus housing. Many universities relied on police to forcibly disband encampments and end occupations of buildings, several made agreements with protesters for encampments to be dismantled, ^[a] and others cut ties with Israeli institutions or companies involved with Israel and its occupied territories. ^[b] The occupations also resulted in the closure of Columbia University, Cal Poly Humboldt, and the University of Amsterdam; rolling strikes by academic workers on campuses in California, and the cancellation of a few U.S. university graduation ceremonies.

Hundreds of groups expressed support for the protests, and the police response in the U.S. was criticised. Supporters of Israel and some Jewish students raised concerns about antisemitic incidents at or around the protests, prompting condemnations of the protests by international leaders. Students and faculty members who participated in the protests, many of whom are Jewish, said the protests were not antisemitic. In May, it was estimated that 8% of U.S. college students had participated in the protests, with 45% supporting them and 24% opposed. 97% of the protests remained nonviolent and 28–40% of Americans supported the protests with 42–47% opposed.{{efn|Range is based on the following two polls:

Protester and counter-protester on Sproul Plaza at UC Berkeley, October 25, 2023

On November 6, Brandeis University became the first private university in the United States to ban its student chapter of Students for Justice in Palestine, saying that the leading factor in their decision was "the SJP’s support of militant group Hamas". A student spokesperson for the SJP chapter disputed this claim, calling it "unsubstantiated" and saying "we have not received any evidence that can lead to the suppression of our right to free speech." The Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression said that "None of the chants or slogans cited by President Liebowitz come close to meeting the legal criteria for incitement or harassment," and that "Brandeis is punishing its students for nothing more than protected political advocacy." ^[406] On November 10, Columbia University suspended its campus chapters of Students for Justice in Palestine and Jewish Voice for Peace for repeated violations of campus event policies, thus barring them from hosting events on campus. ^[407] Columbia's decision was criticized by Naomi Klein and Noura Erakat. ^[408] After Harvard University president Claudine Gay condemned the slogan "from the river to the sea", more than 100 faculty signed an open letter criticizing her censure. ^{[409] [410]} On December 14, Rutgers University became the first public university to suspend its campus chapter of Students for Justice in Palestine in response to complaints of disruptive behavior and vandalism. ^[411] Donors to top universities in the United States withdrew millions of dollars in donations in light of the universities' responses to Hamas' offensive. ^[412]

On October 24, Ray Rodrigues, the Chancellor of the State University System of Florida issued an order ^[278] to disband all existing chapters of National Students for Justice in Palestine (NSJP) in the system. ^{[413] [280]} Chapters at University of Florida and University of South Florida have filed federal lawsuits against several parties including Rodrigues and Gov. Ron Desantis on constitutional grounds over the move. ^[414] On December 5, the Louisiana Department of Education opened a civil-rights investigation against Tulane University after a fight occurred at a pro-Palestine rally on October 26. ^[415] American University announced it was banning protests inside university buildings. ^[416] The Muslim Legal Fund of America sued Harvard University for failing to protect Muslim and Arab students from harassment. ^[417] The American Civil Liberties Union published an open letter urging colleges not to initiate "baseless investigations" into pro-Palestinian student groups. ^[418]

The Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced on November 25 it was forming a task force to combat "those generating antisemitism on campuses" in the United States. ^[419] In February 2024, the ACLU signed a letter to US Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona calling on him to reject redefining antisemitism to include political criticism of the government of the state of Israel, saying it would lead to First Amendment violations. ^[420]

Protest against antisemitism on American campuses at George Washington University in Washington, D.C., May 2024

After Bret Gustafson, a Washu professor, posted online in support of a protest outside of the home of the president of AIPAC, the university stated that Gustafson's views do not reflect the university's, and that they would not tolerate "discrimination, harassment or threatening behavior". ^[421] Jairo Fúnez-Flores, a professor at Texas Tech University, was suspended for his social media posts related to the conflict. ^[422] Michel DeGraff, a professor of linguistics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology was issued formal reprimands and denied a pay raise after he proposed to teach a course on language used to describe the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. ^[423] Maura Finkelstein at Muhlenberg College was fired for reposting a poem on Instagram. ^[424]

Elizabeth Magill, the president of the University of Pennsylvania, resigned on December 9 following congressional testimony in which she asserted that the question of whether calls for genocide of Jews violate the university's code of conduct is a "context-dependent decision". ^[425] In January 2024, Indiana University fired Abdulkader Sinno, a tenured political science professor, in response to political pressure from the state's Republican legislators. ^[426] Students at Northwestern University faced criminal charges for publishing a pro-Palestinian parody newspaper under a law originally used to combat the Ku Klux Klan. ^[427] The New York chapter of the ACLU told Columbia University that the university must reinstate its chapters of Jewish Voice for Peace and Students for Justice in Palestine or face a legal challenge for First Amendment violations. ^[428] On March 12, the New York Civil Liberties Union and Palestine Legal sued Columbia University for banning the groups. ^[429]

Students in the United States have reported fears of losing future job opportunities for engaging in protests against military action in Gaza. ^{[430] [431]} By April 2024, hundreds of students had been arrested, suspended, put on probation, and expelled, including 50 students who had been arrested at Barnard. ^[432] In June 2024, legislators in Pennsylvania introduced a bill that would block state funding for any college or university that divests from "commercial financial activity in Israel", unless it were for poor investment performance. ^[433] In October 2024, the ACLU, Amnesty International, and Human Rights Watch wrote a joint statement warning that law enforcement on 20 U.S. college campuses had used potentially excessive force against pro-Palestinian protestors, in violation of international law. ^[434]

Doxxing

The Israel on Campus Coalition reportedly engaged in covert espionage against pro-Palestinian student organizations. ^[435] Accuracy in Media sent doxxing trucks to Yale and Columbia, displaying the names and faces of students under a banner labeling them "leading antisemites" on campus. ^{[436] [437]} Canary Mission published the identities and images of Harvard students involved in the issue of an open letter, published on October 7, that held "the Israeli regime entirely responsible for all unfolding violence". ^{[438] [439]}

Firings

Susan Sarandon was dropped in November 2023 by United Talent Agency in response to comments she made at a pro-Palestinian rally she attended that month; Sarandon later apologized for the phrasing of her remarks. ^{[240] [440]} A Google employee was fired for "interfering with an official company-sponsored event" after he interrupted Barak Regev by stating, "I refuse to build technology that empowers genocide." ^[441] In May 2024, a nurse at NYU Langone Health was fired for calling the war a "genocide". ^[442] In October 2024, Microsoft employees were fired after organizing a vigil for Palestinians killed in Gaza. ^[443]

Political

Pro-Palestinian protest in Columbus, Ohio, December 22, 2023

Nancy Pelosi drew condemnation after suggesting that some anti-war protesters were being funded by Vladimir Putin and should be investigated by the FBI. ^[444] Abdullah Hammoud, the Democratic mayor of Dearborn, Michigan (a city with one of the largest Arab American communities), wrote: "So, based on Nancy Pelosi’s remarks, 76% of Democrats / 49% of Republicans / 61% of Americans are potentially paid operatives of Russia who are pushing Putin’s message of calling for a ceasefire?" ^[445]

In October 2024, the Heritage Foundation released a document titled "Project Esther: A National Strategy to Combat Antisemitism", in which it detailed a plan to go after what it termed the "Hamas Support Network", consisting of nonprofits and activist groups such as American Muslims for Palestine, Jewish Voice for Peace, and Students for Justice in Palestine. ^[446]

Lobbying

The American Israel Public Affairs Committee sent an email to its supporters asking them to email their senators in opposition to a measure introduced by US Senator Bernie Sanders to investigate Israel's human rights practices. ^[447]

On January 10, 2024, The Jewish Forward reported that the Anti-Defamation League was including pro-Palestine rallies in its tallies of anti-Semitic incidents in the United States. ^{[448] [449]}

Civil rights groups American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee and Palestine Legal described the response to criticism of Israel in the United States as "McCarthyite". ^[450]

Legislation

Senators Thom Tillis and Marsha Blackburn introduced the Safe and Open Streets Act to make it a federal crime to block a public road or highway, as a way to criminalize pro-Palestinian protests. ^[451]

The "Antisemitism Awareness Act", spearheaded by the Republicans but also backed by many Democrats, passed the United States House of Representatives in a 320–91 vote on May 1, 2024, and proceeded to the Senate. ^{[452] [453]} The bill is intended to add the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance's approved working definition of antisemitism to title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibits "exclusion from participation in, denial of benefits of, and discrimination under federally assisted programs on ground of race, color, or national origin". ^[454] Democratic Representative Sara Jacobs, who is Jewish, said she opposed the bill because "it fails to effectively address the very real rise of antisemitism, all while defunding colleges and universities across the country and punishing many, if not all, of the non-violent protestors speaking out against the Israeli military’s conduct." ^[455]

The proposed legislation would broaden the legal definition of antisemitism to include anti-Zionism, criticism of the policies of the state of Israel, and concerns about Palestinian human rights, by categorizing all of that as hate speech, and it has been criticized^{[ according to whom? ]} for conflating "Judaism with Zionism in assuming that all Jews are Zionists" and automatic citizens of Israel rather than the U.S., thereby severely undermining genuine safety for Jewish citizens. It faces strong opposition from several Democratic lawmakers, Jewish organizations, and free speech advocates, including more than 800 Jewish U.S. academics, who signed a letter calling on Biden not to sign the bill.^{[ citation needed ]}

Pro-Israel protest in Washington, D.C. in October 2024

Jeremy Ben-Ami, president of the centrist pro-Israel group J Street, said that his organization opposes the bill because it is an "unserious" effort led by Republicans "to continually force votes that divide the Democratic caucus on an issue that shouldn't be turned into a political football".^{[ citation needed ]}

The ACLU sees the bill as an attack on First Amendment rights and argues that its "overbroad" definition of antisemitism "could result in colleges and universities suppressing a wide variety of speech critical of Israel or in support of Palestinian rights in an effort to avoid investigations by the Department [of Education] and the potential loss of funding".^{[ citation needed ]}

Organizations like the Anti-Defamation League and Conference of Presidents have praised the bill, and it is based on definitions by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance that have been criticized by 100 Israeli and international civil society organizations that wrote to the United Nations Secretary General Antonio Guterres in 2023 urging the UN not to adopt the definitions. ^{[456] [457] [458] [459]}

In 2024, Nassau County, New York passed a face mask ban, resulting in the arrest of a 26-year-old protester in September 2024. ^[460]

Investigations

On January 24, 2024, Palestine Legal stated it had received reports of activists who had written social media posts "criticizing Israel's genocide of Palestinians in Gaza" being visited by the FBI. ^[461] In March 2024, faculty at the University of Pennsylvania sued the school to prevent it from sending documents related to pro-Palestinian protests on campus to Congress, stating they opposed the "new form of McCarthyism, in which accusations of anti-Semitism are substituted for insinuations of Communist leanings which were the tool of oppression in the 1950s". ^[462]

Lawsuits

In May 2024, nine Israelis sued American pro-Palestinian advocacy organizations in federal court in Virginia for spreading "propaganda" in the United States. ^[463] A lawyer for American Muslims for Palestine stated, "It is absolutely a threat to free speech, and it's a threat to free speech on any front." ^[464]
