Political economy, political ecology and Middle East and North Africa. I daydream about mountains. I work in a university and I teach and write. Views mine.

This was a rare opportunity to reflect on food sovereignty, starvation, international law, anti-colonialism, human rights and politics in the same conversation. It was a pleasure chatting with the Makdisi brothers.

During the massacre at al-Shifa Hospital, the Israeli army shot patients in their beds and doctors who refused to abandon the sick, separated people into groups with differently-colored bracelets, and executed hundreds of civil government employees.

Stop and reflect on how utterly useless and irrelevant many Western institutions are right now. The dissonance between their silence and complicity and the reality of the world is calamitous.

They say that tomorrow is Eid, summer is gone, winter has arrived, then New Year, then summer again, Ramadan and Eid, and I stumble every day in a whole world designed from my nightmares.

There are a thousand soldiers and a thousand shells between me and my home.

All 12 universities in Gaza have been destroyed in the Israeli assault. Three presidents and 100 deans and professors have been killed.

Academic ties with Israeli institutions are simply untenable.

The reason a lot of commenters are v. angry with Owen Jones (and the left generally) on Gaza isn't because he is wrong. It's because they know he is right. They are losing the argument on Gaza + can't face the loss of authority: Absurd attempts to misconstrue his words show it.
