The past eight weeks in Israel and Gaza have been the deadliest period for journalists since @pressfreedom began gathering data 30 years ago. The vast majority of the 64 total killed were Palestinian and in Gaza bravely reporting in impossible conditions.

"Intifada" literally means "shaking off" or uprising. The first intifada was largely non-violent, although the second was not. Still, it's a big stretch to say this is calling for genocide. @daoudkuttab latimes.com/opinion/story/…
I don't know how to fight antisemitism on campus. But I'm sure stopping students from criticising Israel is not the way and will backfire in the end.

Trump wants to be a monarch👇, not just a strongman When he met Kim Jong Un in 2018, he talked like this too. He thrilled to see Kim’s yes-men leap to their feet when he walked in a room. Yes, Trump’s an authoritarian. But what he really wants is deference, fawning, and 1
Caught on hot mic — Trump: "[Kim Jung Un] speaks and his people sit-up in attention. I want my people to do the same”
Imagine a U.S. official saying Israel’s right to self defense depends on context: “Do the Palestinians have the right to defend themselves & in what form should the Palestinians defend themselves?” “Are you talking about— in what context?”
In this exchange between @SMArikat and Deputy StateSpox, Said says Israel has given arms to settlers for self defense, then asks “do Palestinians have the right to defend themselves?” Patel repeats Israel’s right to self defense, but won’t say Palestinians have the same right.
Odd to me, CBS has CBSSN and CBSSports.com and yet I can only watch the game on the main network. No shoulder feeds. Seems like a miss for hardcore fans. I love what ESPN does for CFP (and will do with Super Bowl). #NFL #SuperBowl
@LastWordwithLB No Super Bowl on CBS?????
Powerful plea for Israel to stop killing Palestinian journalists, and also to allow foreign journalists to enter.
International journalists must be allowed to enter Gaza immediately. For more than 120 days, #Gaza’s journalists have been alone on the job. They have single-handedly taken on the responsibility of providing the world with trustworthy reporting from within Gaza.
This is such an amazing book! @BarbaraDemick Hunger Games, Handmaid’s Tale, Maze Runner… real North Korea is as weird and horrifying as any of them
@BarbaraDemick For the record, the LA Times 2016 poll projected Trump would win the popular vote by 3 points. He lost by 2. The poll was one of the least accurate national polls that year. That aside, I agree - we need the LA Times.

The number of journalists killed during Israel’s war on Hamas is appalling and unprecedented. 79 in just three months, according to @pressfreedom Journalists in Gaza are our eyes and ears for the truth, and must be protected, like civilians, under the laws of war.
