25 June – THE PUKE ON NUKES
Thursday, June 25, 2026
8 PM ET • 7 PM CT • 5 PM PT • 2 PM HST
Registration required: https://tinyurl.com/PukeOnNukes
Lynda Williams, from Nuclear Free Hawaiʻi — physicist, activist, journalist, and performance artist known as The Physics Chanteuse* — has written breaking investigative articles exposing NRC and DOE deregulation under Trump executive orders. She’ll break down what’s happening — from uranium enrichment in Paducah to DISA Technologies’ attempt to extract uranium from abandoned mine waste on Navajo lands to the Techno fascist billionaires building off-grid SMRs to power AI surveillance data centers.
She’ll also report on her experience serving on the Hawaiʻi state working group on the viability of nuclear energy and touring her one-woman show Atomic Cabaret, using music and performance to motivate political action.
Lynda Williams is a physicist, investigative journalist, activist, and performance artist known as The Physics Chanteuse. She has performed for scientists and general audiences around the world, touring her one-woman show Atomic Cabaret most recently in the UK and Europe. Currently, she is working on analyzing and writing about NRC and DOE deregulation, a video blog/podcast called Nuke Puke, and a memoir, The Physics Bitch.
Protect Sazan Island from the Trump family!
To Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama:“Do not let Sazan Island and the Vjosa–Narta landscape become the playground of billionaires. One of the last pristine sites in the Mediterranean should be protected, and ordinary Albanians should benefit from its natural beauty, not the ultra-rich!”
A few days ago, when locals went out for a walk along the pristine beach on Albania’s southern coast, they found large, barbed-wire-topped fences blocking their path. Heavy machinery was already tearing into the sand.
When citizens stood up to the private guards, they were violently dragged away. That’s when the protests erupted.
Nature is for everyone to enjoy, not a luxury commodity to be sold off to the highest bidder. And right now, Albanians are fighting for that right alone against one of the richest families in the world, the Trumps.
Let’s join their calls and help them deliver a massive victory for nature. When we hit 500,000 signatures, we’ll make sure Prime Minister Edi Rama sees it and demands a total halt to the project.
Mediterranean wildlife at risk
The 10,000-room luxury resort is going to be built within the Vjosa–Narta Protected Landscape, a critical habitat for more than 70 endangered species and over 200 bird species, including flamingos and Dalmatian pelicans. Its waters are among the last refuges for the endangered Mediterranean monk seal and an important nesting ground for loggerhead sea turtles.
Protest to be held at Calderbridge nuclear waste meeting
A PROTEST is set to be held in Calderbridge today, as concerned activists
ask why land off the Copeland coast is under consideration for an
underground nuclear waste store. Activists of ‘Lakes Against Nuclear Dump’
(LAND) have told Newsquest Cumbria that they will be protest outside the
Mid-Copeland GDF Partnership meeting at Calderbridge and Ponsonby Village
Hall today. Between 1pm and 3.30pm, the activists will be invited to join
LAND outside the meeting to colour in a giant postcard of an area off the
Copeland coast, which will then be handed to the partnership board.
Community partnerships formed in Mid and South Copeland in 2021 to speak to
residents about the Geological Disposal Facility (GDF), discussing the
potential economic benefits and its role in providing a permanent solution
for the UK’s radioactive waste. Meanwhile, Nuclear Waste Services (NWS) has
been conducting preliminary tests to determine whether the Mid Copeland and
South Copeland search areas contain the correct geology for the underground
nuclear waste store.
After narrowing its search to the area off the coast,
NWS has submitted a report to the Secretary of State for Energy Security
and Net Zero, Ed Milliband. Mr Milliband will hear that the area out to sea
could contain the necessary geology and it will be for him to decide
whether to progress to more detailed investigations. Mid and South Copeland
are now the only areas being considered for a GDF.

Global Appeal To Endorse Palestinian Right Of Return Of Refugees
Workers’ World. May 30, 2026, https://scheerpost.com/2026/05/30/global-appeal-to-endorse-palestinian-right-of-return-of-refugees/
Please join the global appeal to organizations to endorse the Palestinian refugees’ call to the International Criminal Court (ICC) for the enforcement of U.N. Resolution 194 pursuant to Article 15 of the Rome Statute Concerning the Ongoing Denial of the Right of Return of Palestinian Refugees by signing the following petition.
We, the undersigned, call upon the Office of the Prosecutor of the ICC to initiate an investigation pursuant to Article 15 of the Rome Statute into the ongoing crimes associated with the forced displacement of the Palestinian people and the systematic denial of their right to return to their homes and lands since 1948.
The mass displacement of Palestinians during the Nakba was not a closed historical event. The continued prevention of refugees from returning to their homes, villages and properties constitutes an ongoing and continuous crime under international law. This prolonged policy of exclusion, dispossession, persecution and denial of fundamental rights has subjected millions of Palestinian refugees to decades of statelessness, discrimination and injustice.
We affirm that the ongoing denial of the right of return may constitute crimes against humanity under the Rome Statute, including persecution, forcible transfer of population, apartheid and other inhumane acts. Furthermore, the continued destruction and depopulation of Palestinian villages and the systematic obstruction of return may also amount to war crimes and could rise to the level of genocide when examined within the broader framework of intent, destruction and erasure of a protected national group.
This petition further asserts that the ICC possesses territorial jurisdiction over these crimes, because their effects continue to extend into the territory of State Parties to the Rome Statute, including the State of Palestine and the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, where millions of Palestinian refugees continue to reside.
We therefore urge the Office of the Prosecutor to:
- Recognize the ongoing forced displacement and denial of return as continuing international crimes under the jurisdiction of the Court.
- Open a preliminary examination and investigation into policies and practices that prevent Palestinian refugees from exercising their internationally recognized right of return.
- Accept and document testimonies of Palestinian refugees as part of an official legal process aimed at preserving evidence and advancing accountability.
- Uphold and reinforce the principles established in international law, including U.N. General Assembly Resolution 194, which affirms the right of Palestinian refugees to return to their homes and receive restitution and compensation.
- Contribute to international efforts seeking justice, accountability and a just and lasting resolution to the Palestinian refugee question.
We believe that justice delayed cannot erase the rights of millions of refugees whose displacement remains an open wound in modern history. The continued denial of return is not merely a political issue but a matter of international criminal accountability and fundamental human rights.
The voices and testimonies of Palestinian refugees must no longer remain outside the framework of international justice.
Palestinian refugees’ associations and depopulated villages in collaboration with One Democratic State of Palestine, Law for Palestine, have launched a global appeal to organizations (human rights, international law, Palestine solidarity movements and antiwar, anti-imperialist movements; labor, women’s and students’ unions; political parties and leaders) to endorse the Palestinian refugees’ call to the ICC for the enforcement of U.N. Resolution 194 by signing this statement at tinyurl.com/EnforceUN194.
7 June – WEBINAR -Get Inspired by Protests Against Military Bases!
WEBINAR – https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_QOJuFnibTF6eUmBt-tL8-A
As militarization pushes itself into almost every corner of our lives, as weapons become more powerful, as military bases across the world become nuclear armed, we know this is not about defense. This is about imperialism hand in hand with capitalism. It is about land grabs, resource extraction, pollution and climate change. It is about turning our communities into targets and deforming the future of our children.
Many brave women across the world have stood firm to defy this onslaught of aggression. We bring you the voices of meaningful protest from some of those standing in the front line of defiance.

1 June Webinar – The High Cost of Nuclear Power
June 1 from 7:00 to 8:30pm.
Greater Boston Physicians for Social Responsibility (GBPSR) invites you to hear our experts critique the misguided push in the U.S. to expand nuclear power and discuss how we can advocate for a better energy future together.
Come learn how nuclear energy will lead to unacceptable, unjustifiable and unnecessary health, safety and energy costs in Massachusetts and in the U.S. on a virtual symposium
Background: Nuclear power has significant economic, health, and environmental costs and poses safety hazards that far exceed those of any other type of energy. We will discuss why “new nuclear” is a poor investment for Massachusetts and for our country and how investing in nuclear power could interfere with the transition to an affordable, healthy renewable energy future.
Presenters:Dr. Philip Landrigan, Boston College, Global Public Health program Dr. Benjamin Sovacool, Boston University Institute for Global Sustainability Dr. M.V.

“Enough Is Enough”: Freed Gaza Flotilla Activists Demand the World Keep Fighting for Palestinian Prisoners and Breaking Israel’s Siege on Gaza
May 12, 2026, SCHEERPOST, Joshua Scheer
Attorney and Palestine solidarity activist James Marc Leas tells Margaret Flowers why global flotillas are challenging not only Israel’s blockade, but the collapse of international law itself.
As governments continue to ignore their obligations under international law and the Genocide Convention, ordinary people are risking everything to confront the siege and starvation of Gaza themselves. From Italy to the eastern Mediterranean, activists aboard humanitarian flotillas are challenging one of the most brutal blockades in modern history — facing armed interception, detention, violence, and even torture for daring to carry solidarity across the sea.
On this episode of Clearing the FOG, Margaret Flowers speaks with longtime Palestine solidarity activist and attorney James Marc Leas, who joins from Italy as the Freedom Flotilla Coalition sails toward Gaza. Leas explains why these flotillas matter far beyond humanitarian aid: they are acts of civilian resistance against genocide, collective punishment, and the collapse of international law itself.
The conversation traces Israel’s escalating attacks on flotilla activists in international waters, the expanding siege on Gaza, the role of U.S. military and diplomatic support, and why global citizens increasingly believe governments have failed to stop mass atrocities. From the destruction of Gaza’s schools and hospitals to the criminalization of dissent across the West, Flowers and Leas argue that silence has become complicity — and that direct action is now filling the vacuum left by cowardly political leadership.
As Gaza faces mass starvation, relentless bombardment, and the systematic destruction of civilian life, international activists are once again sailing toward one of the most militarized blockades on Earth. After Israeli forces violently seized humanitarian boats in international waters. Their discussion lays bare the growing desperation in Gaza — and the rising global movement determined to stop the genocide governments refuse to confront.
Saif Abu Keshek has now been released from Israeli captivity after six brutal days of detention, abuse and isolation, but activists say his message remains urgent: the movement must continue to mobilize. While Saif and fellow flotilla organizer Thiago Ávila have returned home safely following international pressure campaigns, thousands of Palestinian prisoners remain trapped inside Israeli prisons under conditions human rights groups have repeatedly condemned as inhumane. Activists behind the flotilla campaign say the releases represent only a small step toward justice and renewed calls for global solidarity, direct action and sustained pressure against what they describe as a system of occupation, siege and apartheid. Organizers also extended gratitude to the legal team at Adalah, along with the countless activists, unions and supporters worldwide who mobilized for the safe return of the detained flotilla members — insisting the struggle for Palestinian liberation is far from over.
The release of flotilla activists Saif Abu Keshek and Thiago Ávila has become both a moment of relief and a renewed call for global action. After being violently seized by Israeli forces in international waters and held for days without charges, the two activists were finally released following mounting international pressure from governments, legal advocates and solidarity campaigns worldwide. But upon arriving in Athens, Saif made clear that the focus must remain on the thousands of Palestinians still imprisoned inside Israeli detention centers. “I left behind me thousands of Palestinian prisoners — children, women, and men,” he said, warning that the abuse he experienced “does not compare to the suffering they are going through.” Activists say the flotilla members’ release exposes Israel’s accusations against them as politically motivated attempts to criminalize solidarity with Palestine, while highlighting the brutal reality facing more than 10,000 Palestinians reportedly subjected to starvation, abuse, isolation and torture inside Israeli prisons. Organizers with the Global Sumud Flotilla praised the international mobilization that helped secure the activists’ freedom, while insisting the struggle is far from over and calling for escalating pressure against what they describe as Israel’s ongoing genocide and system of occupation.
For Leas, the flotillas represent something far larger than symbolic protest.
“The main purpose of the Freedom Flotilla is to break the siege entirely — not simply to deliver aid,” Leas explained. “Palestine was once self-sufficient. What Israel has destroyed is an entire society.”
Leas described Gaza not as a place dependent on outside charity, but as a society systematically dismantled through blockade, bombardment and forced deprivation. Farms have been destroyed, fishing operations crippled, hospitals flattened and entire neighborhoods erased.
The result, Flowers noted, is a humanitarian collapse increasingly defined by starvation — particularly among children.
According to Doctors Without Borders, malnutrition among pregnant women, infants and newborns has surged dramatically since Israel intensified restrictions on food distribution inside Gaza. Food access points have been reduced from hundreds to just a handful, creating scenes of chaos and deadly violence as desperate civilians attempt to secure basic supplies.
“Half the people living in Gaza are children,” Leas said. “And Israel is committing genocide against children.”

Korean A-Bomb Victims U.S. Speaking Tour & NPT Engagement Highlights
The Korean Atomic Bomb Victims U.S. Speaking Tour was successfully held from April 20 to May 2, 2026
First- and second-generation Korean atomic bomb survivors visited major cities across the United States in connection with the 11th Review Conference of the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT), where they shared their long-overlooked experiences and called for an official apology and compensation for the 1945 atomic bombings. Through powerful testimonies, the speakers highlighted the reality that, although victims exist, responsibility has yet to be fully acknowledged. Their accounts underscored the ongoing, intergenerational suffering that has continued for more than 80 years since the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
From April 20 to May 2, 2026, first- and second-generation Korean atomic bomb survivors carried out a nationwide speaking tour across the United States. Held in conjunction with the 11th NPT Review Conference, the tour brought long-overlooked histories of Korean victims into international nuclear discourse.
Throughout the tour, survivors raised international awareness about the more than 70,000 Korean victims of the atomic bombings—many of whose stories have remained largely unheard globally. They also emphasized that Korean survivors have neither disappeared from history nor remained silent, but have continuously struggled for recognition and redress.
The tour was jointly organized by SPARK (Solidarity for Peace and Reunification of Korea), the International Organizing Committee of the A-Bomb Tribunal, and Korean atomic bomb victims. It brought renewed attention to the need for accountability, including an official apology and reparations from the United States for the historical injustice and prolonged suffering endured by Korean survivors.
As part of the program, the delegation visited major cities including Seattle, San Francisco, Sacramento, Los Angeles, Washington, D.C., and New York, with events held at institutions such as San Francisco State University, California State University, Sacramento, UCLA, and CUNY John Jay College of Criminal Justice. They also engaged with local civil society organizations and Korean American communities in each city, delivering testimonies on the enduring impacts of nuclear violence and their lifelong efforts toward justice and compensation.
Through this speaking tour, the issue of Korean atomic bomb victims was brought more prominently to the attention of the international community, and significant support, interest, and participation were secured for the upcoming International People’s Tribunal. The success of the tour was made possible by the generous moral and material support of partners in each region, and in particular by the dedicated efforts of the members of the International Organizing Committee.
Building on this momentum, organizers called on global civil society to participate in the upcoming International People’s Tribunal on the 1945 Atomic Bombings (A-Bomb Tribunal), scheduled to be held in Seoul from November 13 to 15, 2026.

14 May – online event From Bombs to Data Centres: the Face of Nuclear Colonialism
By@GRNHM_NVDA, https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/from-bombs-to-data-centres-the-face-of-nuclear-colonialism-tickets-1987783314403?aff=oddtdtcreator
Overview
Dive into hidden stories connecting the UK’s nuclear history and the tech powering our digital world
The Western Shoshone are the indigenous population of the territory in Nevada occupied in the1950s by the US without Shoshone consent for a Nuclear Test Site. This site is where the UK tested (exploded) its Trident missile systems until as recently as 1991. To date, no formal monitoring of human health has been conducted, nor any tracking of impacts on local ecosystems. PM Zabarte has new information to share with the international community on the lingering presence of plutonium on Shoshone land, and evidence of an historic cover-up of radioactive contamination from the test site. Moreover, there are multinational consortia today proposing a vast nuclear waste dump, lithium mines, and nuclear-powered AI data centres on Shoshone and adjoining Native American territories.
The historic and contemporary exploitation of indigenous communities, cultures, and territories by imperial nations and extractive industries is increasingly a part of public discourse; however, the story of modern-day nuclear colonialism by the UK upon the Western Shoshone Nation is almost unknown.
Pine Ridge Uranium is the real threat, not Tehran
Black Hills Uranium Is More Dangerous. Tell Burgum: Stop the Extraction.
Trump is bombing Iran over uranium enrichment 6,000 miles away. He’s fast-tracking uranium extraction in the Black Hills on Lakota treaty land, above the aquifer that feeds Pine Ridge. Two fast tracks. Two manufactured crises. Both bypassing the consent of the governed. Tell Secretary Burgum the real uranium threat is here.
This administration has put two things on a fast track to destruction. One is a war in Iran. The other is a uranium mine in the Black Hills. Both manufactured crises. Both bypassing democratic oversight. Both moving at the speed of executive order, because if either one slowed down long enough for the people to weigh in, the answer would be no.
Congress never authorized the war in Iran. They’ve voted four times to stop it. Overruled. The Lakota people never consented to uranium extraction from treaty land. They’ve fought it for 20 years. Overruled.
On February 27, 2026, the U.S. Forest Service approved new drilling around Pe’ Sla — the ceremonial heart of He Sapa, the Black Hills — over formal tribal objections, with no environmental review, under a document falsely claiming there are “no known Native American or Alaska Native religious or cultural sites within the project area.” About land a half-mile from Pe’ Sla.
Now the Bureau of Land Management has opened a 30-day comment window on the Dewey-Burdock uranium project — 50 miles from Pine Ridge, in Lakota treaty territory. The 1868 Fort Laramie Treaty appears in the review exactly zero times. The document resolving cultural harm to Lakota sacred sites won’t be signed until six weeks after the comment period closes.
They will go to war over uranium in Iran. They will not protect our water from uranium 50 miles from Pine Ridge.
In the end, the only backstop on this runaway train is the consent of the governed. Use it.
Tell Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum:
1. Reverse the Pe’ Sla drilling permit — now
2. Remove Dewey-Burdock from the FAST-41 federal fast-track program
3. Suspend all extractive permits on treaty lands until full tribal consultation and a complete Environmental Impact Statement are done
The Black Hills are not for sale. Mni wiconi — water is life

Petition to revoke the licensing of the Near Surface Nuclear Disposal Facility (NSDF) at Chalk River.
The word is getting around that dumping a million cubic metres of long-lived radioactive waste 1 km from the Ottawa River is not a great idea, particularly without the free, prior and informed consent of Kebaowek First Nation, on whose unceded territory this flawed project would be located.
A new e-petition calls on the Government of Canada “to issue a directive under Section 19 (1) of the Nuclear Safety and Control Act to order the CNSC to revoke the licensing of the NSDF at Chalk River.” A very good idea.The link is
https://www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en/Petition/Details?Petition=e-7247
Just one small correction — most of the radionuclides in the waste will remain radioactive for millennia, so the radioactivity will not “wear off” in 300 years.
