I cannot praise everyone protesting across campuses enough. You are making people who support and facilitate the worst crimes imaginable extremely uncomfortable and that is precisely why you are being demonised. You have overwhelming, global support. Thank you all.
UPDATE: German police are using extreme violence to evict the pro-Palestine camp outside the German parliament. The brutal eviction of the non-violent activists comes as police have banned the two-week-long camp with no legal basis. The activists are calling on Berliners to leave…
You can’t protest. You can’t march. You can’t chant. You can’t express solidarity or wear certain symbols.
But if you slaughter and starve 2 million people in a tiny enclave that’s fine. Have I understood right?
Do not let what is happening in American universities distract you from what's happening in Gaza. This is all part of their plan to invade Rafah, the arrests, the media focus, social media algorithms, all to distract us about what will happen in Rafah.
Focus on Gaza and Rafah.
Israel is a threat to the lives of millions and to international peace & security. The Security Council is blocked by the US veto. The General Assembly should convene under Uniting for Peace (A/Res/377(V)) & the 2005 Summit (A/Res/60/1, para 139) to organize a protection force.
I’ve made peace with the fact that my politics may cost me my current adjunct post in higher ed and hinder my career prospects elsewhere. But some things are more important than a career. This is one of them.
I stand with the students. I stand with Gaza. See you all at the Oval.
Damn, all these students all over the world staging protests on their school is making me all teary eyed and emotional inside. Revolution is contagious. Spread it around. Forever grateful for Columbia students for starting this. More of this please. More. We will free Palestine.
How many cops are taking a stand against the undemocratic and violent suppression of freedoms we’re seeing on campuses? None? Not a single cop you say? I guess that’s why they say all cops are bastards.

It feels like it's not just class war anymore
There's friction simmering between the old and the young, those stuck in their ways and those who want to push for change, for a better future
Or is it just me?
The Empire always turns on its own. The snake, so greedy, starts eating its own tail. And all those weapons and surveillance techniques and military training — funded by that bloated ‘defence’ budget — will be used to violently suppress the freedoms of those who paid for them.
