A brutal, nine-hour, multi-agency police assault against unarmed protesters at UC Santa Cruz shows the university would rather use violence against its own students than address demands to divest from genocide.
These are the same cops who pretty much ignore violent street takeovers and mass robberies. Why? To paraphrase the SFPD chief, the street takeovers are too dangerous to intervene at.
Cops prefer to beat the nonviolent and unarmed because it is just sport for them.
Reuters reported citing two US officials that the Biden administration has sent to Israel large numbers of munitions, including more than 10,000 highly destructive 2,000-pound bombs and thousands of Hellfire missiles, since the start of the genocide in Gaza.
According to the report, the US has sent at least 14,000 of the MK-84 2,000-pound bombs, 6,500 500-pound bombs, 3,000 Hellfire precision-guided air-to-ground missiles, 1,000 bunker-buster bombs, 2,600 air-dropped small-diameter bombs, and other munitions.
@israelwarcrimes@palestine@israel Israel's propaganda machine is incredible. It's creative, experimental, incredibly high tech. I seriously hope Western governments aren't taking notes.
Protesters arrested for seizing Hind’s Hall at Columbia University are refusing any deals unless protesters at CUNY are offered the same, and they stand in solidarity with those facing the most extreme repression in the movement.
@aapis If there wasn't a video, this wouldn't even be a case, but the video clearly shows how they PASSED 2 ambulances without handing over the injured.
It is just sickening to read the media cover this outrageous act like they do not have access to the video like the rest of us.

Green Party for me.
Both of these fascist corporate stooges can die of old age and dementia before the election for all I care. In fact America and the world would be better off for it. #GenocideJoe#TrumpForPrison
@faab64@palestine@israel
obviously this child is an armed and dangerous member of the nefarious Hamas terroristas gang of slick shit killers. this child single handedly scared the bejesus out of a half dozen Israeli settlers that had pitched their tent on illegally seized Palestinian land. we can't be a having that now can we ...
We need a more comprehensive solution @LukefromDC
The world in general, and Jews in particular, will be safer when the Zionist state no longer exists.
As Miko Peled observed, Israel and Palestine are the same place. He believes that Jews and Arabs can live together peacefully. That may be true, but by all appearances, it's true of probably less than 20% of the population. The remaining 80% would need to be homed elsewhere.
Palestine is sacred to more than Judaism and Islam. Ideally, I'd like to see it established as World Heritage. Protected by the world at large and thus needing no armed forces. I can dream, can't I?
What of the other 80%? Netanyahu advocates a state in Sinai for Palestinians, so let's make that two states. I think of them as sanatoria. Unarmed and heavily guarded, to protect them from each other and the world from them.
