It's so incredibly clear that the police stood aside and let a pro Israeli lynch mob run wild at UCLA. They did nothing for two hours as violent Zionists assaulted students, launched fireworks into the encampment, and sprayed mace on students.

Every night at UCLA, Zionist mobs enact terror on student protesters who are peacefully gathered inside their encampment. They do so with impunity. In the meantime, campus messaging criminalizes & penalizes student protesters. Shame on my university.

I am currently in Jamaica for a conference, but seeing what has happened overnight, I've written to UCLA administration about the madness, thuggery and violence:

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?

STORY OF THE NIGHT: UCLA STUDENTS HELD THE LINE ALL FUCKING NIGHT. ZIONISTS DESPITE THEIR BEST ATTEMPTS WERE NOT ABLE TO GAIN ENTRY INTO THE CAMP.

SOLIDARITY FOREVER.
ALL POWER TO THE STUDENTS!!

cornell admin cited the evocation of “intifada” by the student activists as evidence why the gaza solidarity encampment is violent and antisemitic. cornell faculty who work in arabic were like, ‘may we lend you our dictionary?’

Here are two clear videos showing the cops pushing the student, who, we would like to reiterate, was denied access to medical care. Disgusting.

What happened at Columbia was reprehensible, but it’s STILL HAPPENING at CCNY and they are looking for legal observers and support if you can make it uptown!

Friends, please, please amplify. The NYPD are now raiding City College. Reports are hundreds of cops. Please, I know that what happened at Columbia tonight is sickening--but this is Part II. And our @cuny students are largely working class students of color.

The U.S. government has used more force and punitive measures to stop American students from protesting against genocide than it has to stop Israel from committing one.

Rafah is being decimated, there is nowhere else left to go. Israel is now bombing more than 1.7 million civilians trapped in Rafah, Gaza's last place of refuge. A massacre is happening in Rafah right now and the world is silent.

Nothing more questionable than a born-again 'shock therapy' economist.
Jeffrey Sachs mea culpa doesn't hold. He's always pretending some kind of 'innocence' how NSS never listened to his 'good' advice.
Jeffrey Sachs= was the primary herald of the -Chicago Boys- in Eastern Europe.

The UN was created to prevent wars, genocide and international crimes against humanity. There are too many examples showing that it has failed this mandate so miserably because it has been toyed with and used as a tool by the US and European powers.

Also, imagine if any other leader, like Maduro or Gaddafi, had made this threat to an international institution charged with upholding international law, they would be labelled as 'terrorists' against the Western rules-based international order. Where is the outcry against Biden?
