🚨HAPPENING NOW: over 1,000 workers blockading UK Trade Department in London & BAE Systems’ arms factories in Scotland, Wales & Lancashire.

HAPPENING NOW: police are shoving protestors outside the Department for Business and Trade, which is currently being blockaded by over 600 activists to protest the government’s refusal to suspend the sale of UK arms to Israel

pro Palestine folks are taking their own people to hospitals because they say UCLA PD won’t let EMS in. “Which means our camp has treated 100+ people so far for medical injuries including tear gas pepper spray head injuries from projectiles fireworks burns shock…

Pro-Israel counterprotestors started tearing down UCLA encampment barriers and screamed 'Second nakba!' referring to the mass displacement & dispossession of Palestinians during the 1948 Arab-Israeli war. Per Los Angeles Times Safi Nazzal on the scene with another video:

BREAKING: hundreds of workers shut down the Department for Business and Trade in central London for international workers day, in an action called by Workers for a Free Palestine @workers4pal - the department is responsible for licensing arms export contracts to Israel.

200+ pro-Israel counterprotestors are attacking the UCLA pro-Palestinian encampment. They started beating on one student and stomped another under a plywood board per Los Angeles Times Safi Nazzal on the scene. Where is UCLA security?

Pro-Palestine protesters are outside CCNY at 139th st & Amsterdam Ave entrance to the campus. NYPD cops are blocking the entrance. Student protesters from inside the gate have lit flares to the cheers & chants from protesters outside the gate.

Columbia had a choice - divest from the military or militarise their university

They chose the latter:

📍City College of New York’s Gaza Solidarity encampment is undeterred by NYPD attack

You’re just a big slab of stupid. Just a barely sentient block of cheese.

🚨STUDENTS AT CCNY HAVE TAKEN OVER THE ADMINISTRATION BUILDING AND ARE DEFENDING IT

Today, I received word from Stanford that they will not discipline the students who illegally recorded and doxxed me in clear violation of the University Code of Conduct. My takeaway from this is that I should be allowed to doxx them too.

Bismillah, here we go!🧵
