as far as i know, it works like the ALF - you do a thing and then declare it to be a Palestine Action… action
works real well, can’t round up a group that doesn’t exist
Many Palestine Actionists have gotten weak or no sentences as their targets usually dont show up in court and the actionists defend their actions as legal and moral in the face of the illegal and immoral actions lf genocide. Some judges sympathise with that rhetoric and so do juries.
Now, they won’t be able to do that because judges and juries will not be making decisions on their actions, but on their affiliation to a proscribed organisation. TLDR just makes actions more risky and organising will be heavily suppressed.
As far as i understand it, Palestine Action does not have “membership” in the traditional sense. What will this practically mean?
In practice it will mean that the state can punish those it deems to be Palestine Action members for associating with eachother.

PA does direct action training in a few cities which will likely get raided if they’re held again. Will just need to be restarted under a new name
They could just change the name to Palestine Action 2
