I'm disgusted by materials friends send me from American campuses. Not only the weak response of institutions, but well-organized antisemitic fake news campaigns and demonstrations. Are you just idiots who're super vulnerable to manipulation or does the racism runs much deeper?

Hi Oded Oded Rechavi , I think after the dust of war sets down, Israeli academia will have to discuss the proper response to these Institutes. The main question being, are we even sharing similar values?

Trump show tru colors. Never a friend of Israel.Always an anti Semite .Will evangelicals split? Of course not. They are phony friends of Israel as well timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry…

The levels of hypocrisy in academia are so high (it's the main thing I tweet about even in normal times), I'm not sure I can continue working in this business.

All I want is to go back finalizing our manuscript draft, finish reviewing a paper... I already miss normality. But I just can't.

Three Israeli families who were all erased in a moment. Not one child, not one parent, the entire family, slaughtered by Hamas terrorists. 💔

The Association of Israel university Heads (VERA) - (includes us) has sent a letter to 1000s of university heads in the world, stating vocally and unequivocally: "Hamas is ISIS; We expect you to condemn and denounce expressions of support for deliberate slaughter of civilians."

Spot on. Perfectly stated.

86 Nobel laureates have taken a stand, submitting a heartfelt petition addressed to the United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres and, by extension, leaders of nations across the globe. This petition conveys a profound moral imperative: the immediate release of the kidnapped

It's fine to hope that Hamas "doesn't represent Palestinians," as Abbas says. But then why does he refuse to condemn the Hamas terrorist attack? Because he knows it would be unpopular with his supporters and sponsors.

Dear international friends. If you care about humans (e.g. Palestinians & Israelis and others) don't support Hamas. As a person who actually lives here and has taken action and risks to make peace between our peoples, it pains me to see people supporting terrorists and not peace.

Methods paper on plant autophagy is out. Congrats to all of the authors. link.springer.com/article/10.100…

I'm so sad. I'm sad for my grieving people, I'm sad for innocent palastiniens caught in the cross-fire. I'm terrified for our hostages and their families and worried about my children and students. I'm mostly sad about the future. It seems there will always be hate. I hope not.

What do you discover after a tragedy? - Who are your friends. - What's important.

MUST WATCH. The best description of the situation that I've seen so far, by the German vice-chancellor, Robert Habeck.

Before Oct 7th, a significant % of intellectuals wanted to leave Israel, because of our corrupt government. Hope was lost. But I guess jews are Antifragile - this reminded everybody that we have no other place to go, and we need to stay & build the country better and stronger 👊
