On World Press Freedom Day, I want to pay tribute to my 134 colleagues who were targeted for trying to show the world the genocide unfolding in Gaza, to the heroes who sacrificed everything to reveal the truth, to the bravest, most courageous journalists that the world doesn't…

NEW: The student editors of the Columbia Law Review have issued a statement urging the law school to cancel exams in the wake of the police operation that cleared the university's encampment, saying the "violence" has left them "irrevocably shaken" and "unable to focus."🧵

I was shot at with rubber bullets as an undergrad in 2011 in Cairo during the revolution when the US called on egypt to exercise restraint against peaceful protesters. Who will now hold the US to the same standards?

The survival of the Al Saud has always been interdependent with the survival of the Israeli state. They both feed the strategic needs of the US. Since very early on, Israel and Saudi have covertly collaborated in regional wars. Now, their alliance is overt.

ICYMI, last night Rep Van Duyne (R-TX) intro'd a bill to bar entry/deport any person "charged with any crime" -- note that this applies to people merely "charged", not "convicted" - in connection with "participation in pro-terrorism or anti-semitism rallies or demonstrations"

May we one day also see the street in front of the Israeli embassy in Washington D.C. renamed Shirine Abu Akleh Way.
This thread is going to track the dangerous escalation of dehumanizing language being used to attack Americans for daring to criticize Israel. Item 1 is embedded tweet. Folks would do well to remember what happened last time people started calling other Americans "un-American"
Think it's an exaggeration to reference the "House Un-American Activities Committee" in connection to Congressional witch-hunt targeting critics/protesters of Israeli policies/actions? See Sen. Ernst (R-IA): "Ernst Calls Universities’ Choice to Support Terrorists 'Un-American'"
@NeelaSaldanha Thank you Neela. I really appreciate the kind words. I wish I could say this is courageous - but the courageous ones are the Palestinians persevering under this violence and the students risking suspension and arrest to draw attention to the crisis!
OK, expect UCLA faculty and staff on the front lines soon, in all our grey-haired, arthritic splendor. We're slow, but we get there.
Also another highlight of my day: demonstrators chanting, "Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice!" at #laurenboebert
It should be clear by now that the real choice is not between opposing actual antisemitism, opposing anti-Palestinian racism that is rampant in this country, and opposing an unfolding genocide in Gaza. Rather, to be ethical one must oppose all these at the same time.
Tomorrow Congress is holding more hearings on whether Jewish students feel safe enough, while tonight, Zionist protestors at UCLA are launching fireworks directly into the Palestine encampment, tearing down camp infrastructure & attacking students
I suspect Minouche Shafik will be a keynote speaker at both the Democratic and Republican national conventions
Was at State Dept, video coming. Now at GWU. The encampment has full section of University Yard. Chatting for just short time to students, very kind atmosphere, free food and drink, medical tent. Art area, religious area. Reasonable seeming rules for engagement. Reminds me of…
Going to #Gitmo. One other journalist and I are heading down for Week 3 of the 50th round of pretrial hearings in the 9/11 case.
but based on their own experiences they have to go beyond them, either in their writing as thinkers or in their practice as organizers (or both). We are bequeathing a horrible world. They can do better. I am only providing some tools that might help them. 4/4
Visited the Princeton encampment yesterday & met the son of my fellow UC Berkeley classmate with whom I occupied Wheeler Hall, erected a mock checkpoint at Sather Gate, built a makeshift refugee camp to demand Berkeley divest from Israeli Apartheid. We dont die, we multiply #Gaza
We all know about revolutionary contagion. What I am baffled by is the reactionary contagion that has gripped every university admin where there has been protest. Like they looked at how badly Shafik fucked up and they said I want some of that?
Whatever the flaws of the @UCBerkeley administration for their messaging on Palestine and Palestinians, they have refrained thus far (thankfully) from the despotic and violent crack down on students—unlike Emory, Princeton, Yale, Columbia, UT Austin, NYU and many other leading…
Just texted my nephew in Chicago to say that maybe he should expect me to be crashing on his couch during the Democratic National Convention and without missing a beat he said "I'll take the couch!" 💜
I am so sick of the moral panic about everything but killing people.
“I am a Holocaust survivor. I experienced as a child every single thing a Gazan child is experiencing on a daily basis. There’s no excuse 4 the slaughter of 15K children. I am proud to be here with you.” Amazing Jewish solidarity at encampment at GWU #FreePalestine #Occupy4Gaza
From the sea to the river Human rights Aren't Chopped Liver
the actual encampment at Columbia—i'm here after teaching my final class of the semester—is downright tranquil, impossibly sweet. there is a "nut zone" for the safety of kids with allergies.
Incredibly proud of these students and honored to be their professor @SJPatUCLA @NationalSJP
