Unity of Fields, formerly known as Palestine Action U.S
Unity of Fields, formerly known as Palestine Action U.S., is a far-left anti-Zionist “direct action network” that engages in and/or promotes protests and defacement of private property belonging to organizations and individuals it considers supportive of Israel or “Zionism.” Its stated mission is disrupting and “dismantling zionism [sic] and US [sic] imperialism.”
Unity of Fields changed its name in August 2024 to better reflect its priorities, namely actions the group plans to take to create “higher unity against the forces of imperialism, zionism [sic] and fascism.”
The name “Unity of Fields” is a reference to the efforts of various Palestinian terrorist or Palestinian-aligned terrorist groups and organizations to coordinate activities since the May 2021 Israel-Hamas conflict. It may also refer to the numerous “fronts” or “fields” of warfare that Israel must contend with.
The group distributes a variety of toolkits and materials to instruct followers on how and why to undertake disruptive “direct actions,” such as blockading entrances of companies, breaking and entering, spray-painting buildings with converted fire extinguishers and causing harm to infrastructure.
The group usually targets weapons manufacturers with connections to Israel, such as Elbit Systems, though it also encourages the vandalism of companies such as Starbucks and McDonald's for their perceived associations with Israel and/or Zionism.
Palestine Action U.S. was the U.S.-based chapter of Palestine Action, which is active in the United Kingdom.
