All the academics and researchers who are bemoaning the death of the sanctity of the university because of the will soon enough use the experiences of these very protests to write lofty academic tooms on resistance movements and social Justice. Messed up.

I hope this confrontation has a bigger impact. One is to get rid of these liberals from left’s politics as they hijack left’s spaces and often gets mixed up.

Shame! This is so shameful. The German ambassador to Pakistan's undemocratic approach is shameful. There's no difference between him and a representative of a police state.

Govt of Pakistan & Pakistani civil society should tell the British High Commissioner Jane Marriott to stop her country's support for Israel and allow people right to protest in UK against Israel.

Really disappointed to see behaving in such an authoritarian manner. More power to Ali Raza and Progressive Students’ Collective for calling out the German ambassador. What were the organizers thinking!?!

Screaming 'shouting is not a discussion' while ordering Pakistani students to be thrown out of an event in their own country for daring to call out his govt's support for genocide. What ugly imperial arrogance. More power to Progressive Students’ Collective students.

Why do we have such a sick fascination to invite hoards of western diplomats to our events?? Diplomats whose nations are complicit in murder and pillage. That makes us complicit too. We need to get over our colonial hangover!

America has absolutely no political choices left. Neither for itself nor for the benefit of rest of the world. It’s a flat plane of destruction and nihilism

Those young girls, the ushers standing there, one in a hijab,all racialized, but all three part of Canadas future generation, I wonder how they felt witnessing that. What does it tell them about their future?

Shut down universities and academia if you expect them to be only revenue and illicit profit generating bodies and stifle intelligence. They serve no purpose to knowledge and resistance to conflict then.

Disappointed? Yes. Surprised? No.

I don’t doubt Malala is a good and fine person who does probably believe she’s doing the right thing. Unfortunately, being a celebrity activist is quite different from being a regular activist & organiser. Our faces in high places won’t save us
