Trump Seeks Extradition of Pro-Palestine Activist Amid Crackdown on the US Left
“The United States is fabricating a narrative of terrorist financing to silence Chambers and his vital philanthropy, to stop aid and solidarity through fear, and also to justify its repression at home,” said the International Association of Democratic Lawyers in a statement.Chambers’s arrest has been condemned by activists, human rights groups, and lawmakers.“From the unjust sentences of the Prairieland protestors to the attempt to extradite Fergie Chambers, we must fight back against these attempts to destroy our right to protest and organize,” tweeted Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI).“Fergie Chambers is a well-known financier of solidarity with Palestine, pursued by the USA and now detained in Ibiza,” wrote Irene Montero, a Spanish representative to the European parliament and Podemos member on Twitter. “Spain cannot collaborate with Trump in the persecution of solidarity with Palestine: the Government must protect him and not hand him over to Netanyahu’s friends.”Fergie Chambers es un conocido financiador de la solidaridad con Palestina perseguido por EEUU y ahora detenido en Ibiza. España no puede colaborar con Trump en la persecución de la solidaridad con Palestina: el Gobierno debe protegerle y no entregarle a los amigos de Netanyahu.Another member of Podemos, Ione Belarra, said that the government has failed to provide local lawmakers with details of the situation.“We’ve spent several days trying to contact the government to prevent the extradition of activist Fergie Chambers, and we haven’t even received a response,” tweeted Belarra. “This is the Spanish government’s commitment to the Palestinian cause: none beyond the headlines.”The arrest comes amid a Trump administration-wide crackdown on the U.S. left.

Si vous donnez des millions à des associations sionistes, vous êtes un héros et un défenseur de la seule démocratie du middle-east.
Mais si vous êtes un millionaire communiste, par exemple #FergieChambers, héritier d'une famille immensément riche, et, que vous décidiez d’inonder des ONG pro-palestiniennes, anti-sionistes, communistes, anarchistes, alors là, vous passez du coté sombre des #terroristes
Le 10 juillet 2026, à Ibiza, la Guardia Civile (hijos de nada !) a arrété Fergie Chambers.La raison, une demande d'extradition des USA pour avoir "financé des organisations mises sur la liste des terroristes...".

Pro-Palestine activist Fergie Chambers arrested in Spain after US extradition request
Among Chambers' more recent humanitarian initiatives was a $250,000 donation to the Sameer Project.The organisation said the contribution was "critical to our work" and "a lifeline to a population suffering during displacement, a famine, a man-made water crisis, and the systematic destruction of the medical system".The funding helped establish a bakery producing 3,600 free loaves of bread a day in northern Gaza, complete a desalination plant supplying 150,000 litres of clean water daily, and operate a free medical clinic in Jabalia treating up to 300 patients each day.He also provided a further $100,000 grant to the Zaynab Project to expand long-term mental health and psychosocial support for orphaned children in Gaza, including access to licensed therapists, counselling and psychological care.Abu Sitta, the British-Palestinian surgeon, said: "Since the beginning of the war, Chambers has been a vital supporter for the provision of care for children wounded in the genocide."Beyond Palestine solidarity, Chambers has also participated in the Black Lives Matter protests that followed the police killing of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, and in the Standing Rock protests against the Dakota Access Pipeline.According to people close to Chambers, he remains in custody on the island of Ibiza."He's in jail. It's very hot. There's no fan, no books and he has no spare clothes," one person who has spoken to him since his arrest said.
If you're in Spain, please protest the cooperation of your government with this attempt by the US to crush pro-Palestine activism.
