As per the tweet from yesterday. Every student and faculty within hundreds of meters of @columbia campus was treated as a presumptive threat by armed police. People could not enter or exit their homes.

Whenever I meet a new chatbot, I like to ask this question.

Today locked out of offices. Not just a place of work but the place we define by our teaching and research without which it is literally nothing more than a bunch of badly managed assets and a hospital.

This project has been a long time in the works, and is as much a story of the history of Gaza as it is what is currently happening there. Lots of photography, video, satellite and imagery coupled with interviews with real people who value the education they received in Gaza

1/ I’m an Israeli academic. My community is too silent about the ongoing war in Gaza. Here is how I see things based on reading hundreds of articles and watching thousands of videos and images about the war. This tweet chain contains my conclusions as a sort of executive summary.

the nostalgia of reading over old notes and encountering the fresh feelings of a first reading

What is striking about the daily mass atrocities committed in Gaza is the high volume of incriminating evidence produced by Israeli officials. Starting from statements and orders by war cabinet members and military commanders to rank-and-file soldiers carrying out sadistic acts.
