The opening as it read in 2025

Samidoun ( Arabic : صامدون , romanized : Ṣāmidūn , lit. ' steadfast ' —see sumud for the cultural context of this term), officially Samidoun: Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network , is a pro- Palestinian and anti-Israel advocacy group based in Canada that has been designated as a terrorist group by a number of global governments. Since the October 7 attacks and ensuing Gaza war , Samidoun has been a prominent organizer of Palestinian solidarity protests in the United States and Canada. Samidoun has been accused by a number of governments of raising funds for the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine , a political and militant group that the US, European Union , and several other countries designate as a terrorist organization . On that basis, Samidoun has been designated as a terrorist group by Israel and Canada. Samidoun has also been restricted by Germany and the United States.
