How are news outlets dedicating wall-to-wall coverage to campus protests, but not the discovery of mass graves in Gaza of people with their hands tied & clothing stripped?

Why do we not know more?

Where are the journalists and resources being dedicated to that story?

It’s been 75 years and 200 days.

200 days of a brutal assault by Netanyahu on Gaza and a war on children.

200 days of over 2 million Palestinians displaced in ethnic cleansing and over 40,000 killed.

200 days of over 14,000 Palestinian children killed and 17,000 orphaned.

It is so hilarious (and unbelievably colonial and racist and discriminatory) that Mr. 'Ted Arnott' and Mr. 'Tim McGough' (Sgt at Arms no less!) get to decide anything wrt the meaning of a Pal#stinian keffiyeh. WOW! I so wish the Ted's and Tim's of the world could see themselves

Cowards at Columbia University would rather shut down the entire university & deprive every student of a meaningful education rather than allow protests against Israeli atrocities to continue. This is how it works: bye bye free speech, bye bye international justice -- all that goes out the

This is absurd & disgraceful. Every Ontario MPP should & must press for this racist & offensive keffiyeh ban to be overturned.

The diverse Jewish communities in 🇨🇦 are being portrayed here as a monolith only concerned about Israeli hostages, not about Palestinian hostages nor about over 40,000 murdered Palestinians including 15,000 children, as part of an ongoing genocide.

Disgusting and unacceptable.

Considering how often Palestine solidarity activists are demanded to speak about the Israeli hostages, this lack of acknowledgment of nearly 40,000 Palestinians murdered in those same 200 days is especially egregious. Your job is to oppose antisemitism, not to support Israel.

I struggle to understand what’s going on today in Ontario. That a political party just so openly opposes a cultural and ethnic identity is beyond my understanding, that a handful of MPPs can just scream “No” to the presence of a cultural clothing item in the legislature and go

The speed at which we are normalizing police arrests of students for nonviolent protest is deeply alarming:

Democracies that respect basic human rights and international humanitarian law do not bury people in mass graves, in hospitals or anywhere. They just don’t.

Nearly 300 bodies found in mass grave at Gaza hospital, authorities say: cbc.ca/news/world/gaz…

My latest:

Yesterday, I arrived in Istanbul to join the Freedom Flotilla to Gaza.

We're ready to sail, but there's a problem: Western governments are pressuring Turkey to block our humanitarian mission.

Will Turkey's 'pro-Palestinian' President succumb to their pressure?

Zionists don’t feel safe on campus? Boo hoo

Any ways, here’s a video of Israel blowing up the Al-Israa University campus in Gaza. How much coverage did this get in the Western press?

As a tenured NYU Law faculty member I fully endorse the AAUP - NYU Chapter statement-I am deeply skeptical of the carceral response to the events yesterday, as well as the portrayal of those events in the University's attempted justification.

Israel lies pathologically!
A🧵of dozens of conclusively debunked Israeli gov lies since Oct 7, off the top of my head

1- The IDF blatantly claimed this underground WATER TANK was a 'Hamas tunnel' their ground troops discovered at the Qatari hospital in Gaza on Nov 5 2023

🧵The Keffiyeh ban at Queen's Park is both racist and illegal. It was instituted ostensibly pursuant to rules of decorum, specifically that wearing a keffiyeh is “intended to be a political statement” and can “no longer be regarded as a traditional garment”.

Members of the Arab Canadian Lawyers Association had a meeting scheduled with NDP leader Marit Stiles.

They were barred from entering QP due to the keffiyeh ban. They’re now having an outdoor meeting on the legislative grounds.

Every day we learn of more horror. Canada must support all investigations by international courts. Foreign journalists must be allowed into Gaza to report freely. The world needs to know. #CeasefireNow

Appalling to see that Robin Martin is threatening to veto any effort to reverse the keffiyeh ban in the Ontario legislature. Although she claims this is because it is 'political,' she had no problem wearing a pro-Israel dog tag in the legislature 2 months ago. This is bigotry.

How do we explain @RobinMartin’s “principled” position on the keffiyeh with the picture below. This is what we call bigotry and racism. Doug Ford, please don’t put up with this nonsense. Enough. #onpoli

In Ontario, a person with a disability on ODSP is having to live on the least amount of income ever.

An 11% ✂️ since before the pandemic under Ford.

Guaranteed to live in poverty.

Every govt since Harris owns this.

And it goes on because it’s not popular to change.
