“[Mehdi] was a star in the making on October 6, because he had taken down Ramaswamy,” says one of his former colleagues. “On October 8, he was a villain.”

Belgian minister calls for reinstatement of funding for UNRWA after it seems Israel has been unable to substantiate claims it made earlier that triggered Western funding cut offs to an agency vital for the delivery of assistance to Palestinians

Did people ever question what 'Free Mandela' meant in the same way some people try to question what 'Free Palestine' means? Did anyone think Free Mandela was a coded message to kill all white people?

The US protecting its genocidal 51st state by turning the force of the law against its own educators.
Solidarity with those standing with Palestine in the belly of the empire.

'Current & former US officials said that while Israel has not, and cannot, destroy Hamas, it has made the likelihood of a repeat of the Oct. 7 terrorist attack remote.' Yet Netanyahu's insistence on the elusive goal of destroying Hamas keeps the war going. trib.al/JIaSIlQ

So much of the opposition to the student protests, while couching itself as anti antisemitism, is just vulgar Islamophobia

Stephen Kinnock, 'Today Rishi Sunak refused to give details about the operationalisation of the Rwanda scheme saying: we will not be giving away sensitive operational details which could hinder all the progress made to date'

'Or so he thought. Because it subsequently emerged,

BREAKING: Independent UN Investigation led by former French foreign minister Catherine Colonna concludes Israel provided NO evidence to substantiate their claims against UNRWA.

Big lies that led counties like the US & UK to withdraw funding of the only humanitarian organisation

I was at a university where people are being doxxed, arrested, fired and evicted for standing with Palestinians, so i tried to dox them and asked why they’re covering their faces.

One Black person spoke to me, so I called them a mob.

It increasingly feels like there is a contingent of pro-Israel journos & activists seeking to cynically stoke fears about Jewish safety in order to make inevitable & normalize eventual police/national guard violence against peaceful campus protesters for Palestinian rights.

It is about the rights of supporters and opponents of Israel’s war in Gaza, not identity politics. JVP and SJP were both banned. Supporters of Israel are trying to ethnicize a political issue by changing the subject to antisemitism, abetted by ignorant bigots on the other side.

AIPAC Rep. Josh Gottheimer has collected >$1.4 MILLION from the Israel lobby. Now he pushes their preferred legislation in Congress.

The representative is working for foreign entity. #RejectAIPAC

Don’t be silly Muhammad, the mainstream media doesn’t have time for mass graves as they are busy covering a college campus protest (against the people who dug those graves!)

I recommend this excellent contribution to the study of technocracy and populism.

This is the same White House that hasn’t seen a single Israeli IHL violation in Gaza. There is a total disconnect with reality.

Try not to get distracted. The reason why there is a diverse, growing coalition protesting across US campuses is due to Israel's brutal war that has killed over 33,000 Palestinians, mostly civilians, and Biden's 'ironclad' support for what many consider to be a genocide.

Colleagues in the media: If you are regurgitating extremist/alarmist rhetoric painting these students as violent and hostile without doing actual journalism and stepping foot on campus, you're helping to make the situation more dangerous.

Tom Cotton Tom Cotton has collected >$237,000 from the Israel lobby. The senator is paid to parrot Israeli propaganda. #RejectAIPAC
