this move by Jason Clare MP & the Australian Research Council is outrageous. Our grants and work cannot be subjected to this political interference. All academics, our universities (Macquarie University) & associations (TASA) need to stand up against these attacks. archive.md/2025.01.31-093…

The new generation of Arab activists for Palestine in the US are quite inspiring. They are mostly females (have mostly female leaders) and they are progressive (consistently and on all issues), courageous, fearless, principled, and humane. They put previous generations to shame.

🧵 1/ Let's do a thought experiment here. If someone makes a polemical social media post saying 'may 2025 see the end of Israel', what is the intended meaning here, in the present context of 1) the current and historic 'actually existing' set of practices, laws, and actions of

The one certain thing after the war in Gaza is this: no amount of propaganda and US-imposed global censorship can protect Israel from its deserved reputation as a genocidal terrorist Nazi regime.

Hey Donald J. Trump, you are not the first one to try to ethnically cleanse Gaza. Here's a brief primer on the history of the failed idea: palestinenexus.com/articles/israe…

My afro Palestinian community in Jerusalem is systematically terrorized & targeted by the IDF & Fascists, chanting “death to arabs.” Our brave niece, Shaden Qous, 22yrs old, was abducted & jailed for the crime of speaking & existing as an Afro Palestinian.

fucked up.

overland.org.au/2025/02/seekin… Read Dr Micaela Sahhar's excellent piece on the context surrounding Khaled Sabsabi's cancelation by Creative Australia. The targeting of Sabsabi, Randa Abdel-Fattah and Antoinette Lattouf have everything to do with their advocacy of Palestinian justice.

this definition imposes on palestinians and lebanese to accept zionism without criticism, even though it is a political ideology that leaves no room for palestinians and lebanese to live as equals with jewish israeli, nor does it recognise their sovereignty.

Edward Said received so many death threats that the university had to install bullet-proof glass windows at his home.

Those courageous students (non-Arab/non-Muslim) risked it all at Columbia and Barnard for Palestine. Palestinians and their supporters will never forget their sacrifices. PS They all should sue and they will win.

Royal Melb Hospital's head stood in Hebron armed to defend "our land". Arab Australians do nothing comparable, but are nevertheless tarred and feathered, have grants suspended and prestigious art invitations revoked, all because they stand opposed to genocide.

3 Zionists against 1 and she still cooked them all. Fair play Briahna Joy Gray 👏👏👏

At the c. 24 min mark Ilan Pappe says “you cannot be a liberal coloniser, you cannot be a progressive ethnic cleanser and you cannot be socialist genocider ... there is something unworkable … you cannot square the circle”. youtu.be/8ujQ4xk4clM

Israel defines "ceasefire" as the other side ceases and Israel fires.

Today I am at my computer preparing a defence to the ARC and MQU suspending my Future Fellowship because I have refused to remain silent over genocide as my phone pings images of fresh genocide. The moral and ethical bankruptcy of institutions is staggering.

Variety Without standing against Apartheid, all these words are just verbose mendacity.

This is absolutely disgraceful coverage!! The ABC are directly complicit in these killings of Palestinian journalists - in this short report they repeat Israeli lies / the entire report seems to be based on Israel talking points

Thank you ⁦Nick Riemer⁩ for always standing up for Palestine and for Lebanon. “Solidarity to everyone here who feels they can’t breathe this poisonous air that Australian elites have created. We are with you; attacks on you are attacks on us all.” youtu.be/LE4Lb6Cvznk
