Drop Site News reports in a post titled “Over 50 Protestors Picketed G&B Packing, A Key U.S. Logistics Hub Supplying the Israeli Military” that: “Early morning Friday, dozens of protestors convened at 1A Colony Road in Jersey City to picket G&B Packing, whose warehouse is operated by Interglobal Forwarding Services — a company that works closely with the Israeli Ministry of Defense and U.S. federal contractors to ship military cargo to Israel and supply its genocidal assault on Gaza. Over a thousand tons of military equipment was shipped every week from the warehouse through August 2025, as revealed in a Drop Site report based on research from the Palestinian Youth Movement (PYM) and Progressive International.
“G&B Packing has current federal contracts to facilitate shipping more military cargo to Israel. Those who gathered at the picket, including 90-year old U.S. veteran Jack Gilroy with Veterans for Peace, made their way to Jersey City in below freezing temperatures at the windy port in Jersey City.
“’What brings me here is the unbelievable atrocity in Gaza, what brings me here is that so many millions of Americans don’t seem to be paying attention to the fact that it’s the United States that is a terrorist nation, along with Israel, a terrorist nation. They have been hidden from the truth from the time they were children, and it’s about time to grow up and to join people like those here at the largest warehouse for munitions that will eventually destroy and kill many people in Gaza as they have in the past two years,’ Gilroy told Drop Site.” See full report with video interviews of protestors.
