Doesn't look anti-semitic to me when Jews can hold a seder at the encampment. The cause of ending REAL anti-semitism has been so set back by those crying wolf over criticisms of genocide. May a 100 McGills blossom across this land.

“The State Department’s leaked confirmation that Israel has restricted the transport and delivery of U.S. humanitarian assistance leaves no doubt: U.S. law requires the suspension of military aid to Israel” huffpost.com/entry/leaked-m…

I'm hearing disturbing reports that students face suspension if they don’t end their peaceful protests in #Columbiauniversity in the USA. This is a clear violation of their right to peaceful assembly

Police forcibly remove hijabs from female Muslim students. A violation of their rights, dignity, & freedom. The police state is fortified by pro Israel lobbyists & politicians urging crackdowns on anti-genocide Palestinian solidarity. Expressions of Muslimness are under seige.

University of Toronto has blocked off King's College Circle and posted an announcement stating that the grounds have been 'closed' due to 'concerns about unauthorized activity.' This 'unauthorized activity' likely refers to a Palestine solidarity encampment, as they spread across…

We stand in solidarity with students exercising their democratic right of free expression as they courageously advocate for the Palestinian people facing forced famine & genocide. We call upon uni leaders to heed the call for immediate divestment from Israeli military interests.

Double standards and shutting down of student activism on campus. Bring it on. You will only strengthen the resolve of those who are courageously standing against genocide and oppression.

Universities students across Canada are bravely setting up encampments to protest Israel's genocide in Palestine. The people, united, will never be defeated! 🇵🇸✊🏽

An utter human rights fail @uottawa. Yes, there may be conflicting factors to balance, but a categorical statement that 'encampments and occupations will not be tolerated' blatantly gets free expression/assembly wrong, and almost certainly sets the ground for confrontation.

Anti Muslim racism isn't new. The video of the guidance counselor casually telling a Muslim student he resembles a terrorist reveals the normalization of Islamophobia. I've documented similar cases in my research over 2 decades. The difference is that now it's caught on video.

Just a reminder that your role as an elected official is to respect free expression & uphold the Charter of Rights, not to suppress free expression & champion police brutality.

The not so hidden curriculum of schooling. Guidance counselor tells a Muslim student that he reminds her of a terrorist because he is wearing a keffiya, then he schools her on her racism and Islamophobia.

This is peak anti-Palestinian racism, similar to the incident in which a white woman called police on a black man walking his dog. Compare this peaceful picnic with her frantic lying about it. She should face legal consequences for incitement.

It’s been over six months, and Ontario Medical Association OMA District 11 Canadian Medical Association have remained completely silent over the targeted campaign to intimidate, harass, and bully a respected physician and humanitarian, Dr. Ben Thomson, for standing for Palestinian health and human rights.

Michael Levitt 🇨🇦 Where is your evidence that the encampments have been antisemitic? This claim contradicts everything we have seen and read. Just stop lying.

As a McGill alum, I expect the administration to do everything in its power to protect the safety of its student protestors & ensure they’re not subjected to the same false antisemitic intimidation tactics protestors at other encampments across the US have been subjected to.

Distraction politics providing political cover for genocide.

Wait let me get this straight: 100 students were arrested because the uni claimed they had yelled “kill the Jews”. Then it turns out the student who yelled that was holding an Israeli flag, trying to unsuccessfully bait the crowd and was booed in return

Honoured to win Prof of the Year Lincoln Alexander School of Law. As scholasticide continues in Gaza (theconversation.com/the-war-in-gaz…) it has been a privilege defending students speaking out against Israel’s atrocities. Students across the world free the university just as Palestine frees the world 🇵🇸✊🏽
