Peaceful protest is a human right. Universities should safeguard people’s rights to assembly and free expression. Listen to @astroehlein's Daily Brief:
In the past few decades, Islamic doctrines of #jihad were scrutinized as some extremists use them to justify savagery. But in the face of the horrors in Gaza, the world needs another discussion: Extremists who use the Biblical doctrines of #milchemet. They are no less horrific.

Scenes out of The University of Texas–Austin last night were shocking. Let’s be clear: Using government force to suppress peaceful protest is un-American, especially in places where it should be sacrosanct— a public university like UT Austin. 🎙️: @1AMorey

Taking the individual actors out of the equation for a second, it is absolutely insane that we're having a debate about whether US foreign aid should have (any!) conditions. Of course it should! You're taking that money from US taxpayers backed by threat of violence!
If non-violent protestors on American campuses are branded and treated as "terrorists," I can imagine various authoritarian regimes around the world feeling much empathy, and even telling the U.S. authorities, "welcome to the club." So, I hope that is not going to happen.

The rule of law is not a new idea but it is receiving so much attention these days, especially in foreign policy debates. @vali_nasr and Thomas Carothers joined me to explain why, its relationship with democracy and why it is challenged in the Middle East. Listen here 👇
On Ep. 2 of "Rethinking Democracy" Thomas Carothers (@CarnegieEndow) & @vali_nasr join host @gonultol to answer the question: What is the relationship between the rule of law and democracy? Listen here 🎧⬇️ mei.edu/multimedia/pod…
well yes, because in 'Islamic states', people tend to not want to be restricted by a religion and seek 'freedom', while in an actual 'free world', they find out that being 'free' does nothing but bring forth destruction to themselves. congrats on understanding it👍🏻
What I understand from the interesting exchange below is that the beliefs and values of Islam flourish best in a free society where the state is secular — and not under "Islamic" states which actually turn many people away from Islam because they dictate it.
Protesting war is not anti-semitism, it’s a display of our free speech rights. Student protests at @UWMadison are reminiscent of the anti-war protests of the 60s that helped end the Vietnam War. We must protect all students from anti-semitism & Islamophobia. Always.
Now, in Tel Aviv: chanting "Our Government Has Blood on Its Hands!", joining thousands outside the Ministry of Defense who are calling for a ceasefire agreement to bring back the hostages, instead of invading Rafah and losing more innocent lives.
Denying Israel's crimes & culpability, slamming critics with slurs & labels they do not deserve, seeking to silence critics of Israel via intimidation is not working. The only way to stop the protests and the criticism is for Israel to stop killing innocents & let aid through.
Non-Sharia as Islamic Secular Sherman Jackson's "The Islamic Secular" makes a compelling case for an alternative understanding of 'secular', which is neither outside religion nor a rival to it. Jackson postulates that the 'religious' in Islam cannot be confined to the sacred…

@emoscreemo1 Targeting civilians and conducting atrocities isn't justified.
There is something fascinating about how few constraints reality places on political narratives. You just need a few things that will lend a vague air of plausibility to your claims and then you're good to go. People assume you need bad faith to explain that, but you don't.

Israel cannot fight and starve its way out of its fundamental, underlying issue with Palestinians and American universities cannot arrest their way out of these protests. Both approaches are counterproductive and immoral.
