Dozens of American activists protested on Sunday outside the G&B Packing facility in Jersey City, New Jersey, in objection to its role in shipping military equipment and supplies to Israel that are used in the killing of Palestinians.

The activists held a sit in despite the severe cold in front of the facility, which works with Israel’s Ministry of Defense and federal contractors in the United States to transport military equipment to Israel.

Rights and investigative organizations revealed that more than one thousand tons of military equipment were being shipped every week from this site until August 2025.

Participants in the protest stressed that the United States bears direct responsibility for prolonging the war, noting that the weapons shipments departing from the G&B Packing facility have contributed to the increasing destruction in the Gaza Strip.

"The scale of intelligence gathering at the Civil-Military Coordination Center (CMCC) prompted the US commander of the base, Lt Gen Patrick Frank, to summon an Israeli counterpart for a meeting to tell him that “recording has to stop here”."

Also, no Palestinians invited.

@pelle blocked @ErikvanStraten so he could not reply.

There is WAY too little food and other aid entering Gaza - because Israel blocks it.

Giving specific Gazans an advantage over others, who do not have internet access and/or don't speak English (and don't know how to use Google Translate), is simply unfair.

In addition, it stimulates crime: theft of aid by gangs sold on black markets to those who DO have money. Note that there are lots of orphan children in Gaza.

Instead of wasting money on either scammers or cheats, convince your government to boycot Israel.

Good morning from Gaza,
Good morning from my displacement tent,
Good morning from the hellfire we live through every day,
Good morning from a heart that still tries to hold on to hope despite everything,
Good morning to those who still hear us, feel us, and have not forgotten that we are human.
