This is pure fascism, the real thing: the National Union of Israeli Students’ proposed bill whereby “Academic institutions will be obliged to immediately fire a lecturer, a teacher or researcher who expresses or acts in a manner that includes denial of the existence of Israel as a Jewish and democratic state, incitement to racism, violence or terrorism and/or support for an armed struggle or an act of terrorism against Israel”
Indiana University's "Liberation Commencement" was a celebration of the students' brave commitment to fighting powerful institutions and their involvement in challenging Zionism and the Palestinian genocide.
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken complains that "Hamas could have answered [to #Biden's proposal] with a single word; Yes", but it proposed changes.
Disgusting sack of shit genocide enabler never says anything about #Netanyahu or his fascist co-criminals, but feeling hurt because Has doesn't like the BS ceasefire deal they didn't even have the balls to vote for.

The Israeli far-right government has circumvented Israeli laws to facilitate the closure and ban of any journalistic institution that exposes the atrocities committed by the Israeli occupation army in Gaza. Extremist ministers are also pushing for the expansion of this law to include the occupied West Bank.
Do not expect anything other than possibly some empty words from the "world leaders" against these outrageous fascist rules in the "only democracy in the middle east".
WTF story of the day: #DePaul $University in #Chicago has dismissed Professor Anne d’Aquino for assigning her students to explore the impact of "genocide in Gaza" on human health.
The University administration cited "objections from some students" who felt that introducing politics into a science class was inappropriate and considered the material "outside the scope" of the course.
@faab64@palestine@israel Wasn't the world's first man-made nuclear pile created at Univ of Chicago by Enrico Fermi? And now the students and administration say politics is outside the scope of science?
As much as these chuckleheads need science education, they need history education even more.
Going Home: A Walk Through Fifty Years of Occupation by Raja Shehadeh, 2020
In Going Home , Raja Shehadeh, the Orwell Prize–winning author of Palestinian Walks , takes us on a series of journeys around his hometown of #Ramallah. Set in a single day—the day that happens to be the fiftieth anniversary of Israel's occupation of the West Bank—the book is a powerful and moving record and chronicle of the changing face of his city.
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.
@indyradio ABC is most likely correct. I believe those 3 were killed during the kibbutz raid early on. Hamas has been giving a count and location, but not names, of other hostages killed by the IDF, via a number of telegram channels. @mondoweiss@palestine@israel
During a military raid on Jenin, Israeli soldiers strapped an injured Palestinian civilian to the front of a military jeep and paraded him through the street as a human shield. He was eventually handed over to Palestinian medical teams.
Muhammad Shehadeh (on X) It's been 48 hours since Israel murdered Gaza's water & environment chief engineer along with 4 municipality officials while they were working to restore the water supply to the famine-stricken northern Gaza.
Not even a single passing mention of this in any mainstream media @palestine@israel
@Sherifazuhur@palestine@israel it is a war.. We all expect people to die.. Sadly that is the inevitable result when terrorists take over a region. I hope Isreal can bring lasting peace.
@Valvoline@Sherifazuhur@palestine@israel it's what happens when TWO opposing groups of terrorists fight over the same land and one has the protection from consequences by a world power like the US
Genocide Joe is walking in the footsteps of Ronald Reagan.
The last time didn't go very well for Americans.
Last time 70000 Lebanese lost their lives during Israeli occupation. And it gave birth to what is now Hezbollah who fought for almost 2 decades to kick out Israeli invadors.
The funny thing about the Hezbolla is that it did not lift a finger to oppose the Syrian occupation forces in Lebanon (1976-2006). The Syrians were finally kicked out of Lebanon by a coalition of forces that the Hezbollah opposed.
The USA hasn't learnt a fucking thing. They just want a perpetual war in the Middle East, in order to keep their own weapons factories busy.
The Fascist Zionist State of Israel is happy to recieve those weapons and use them for warcrimes and genocide against their neighbours.
“Israel was given the October 7th blueprints two years earlier by spies in Gaza and those plans were studied by the IDF who described the coming invasion as ‘the biggest threat the Israeli Defence Forces are facing’. The IDF then decided to stop monitoring Hamas radio traffic (and banned civilians from doing so) because they saw this as a waste of effort. This is because they had more important things to focus on like monitoring western Twitter accounts for wrong-think. As you can see, Israel had its priorities in order.”
[..]
“I guess we’ll never know how #Mossad failed to see the October 7th attacks coming and the IDF failed to mount a proper response for hours, but Benjamin Netanyahu has suggested the attacks were a gift from god and explained Israel would never have been allowed to eliminate Hamas if they’d not taken place.”
@GeriatricGardener@paninid@palestine@israel What a shitshow. I knew some of the mentioned things but all together pretty damning stuff. And all of it is ok for the leaders.
“ISRAEL LOBBY FUNDED A QUARTER OF BRITISH MPS: Exclusive: Declassified is publishing the full list of British MPs who received funding from pro-Israel lobbyists.”
“Some 180 of Britain’s 650 MPs in the last parliament accepted funding from pro-Israel lobby groups or individuals during their political career, Declassified can reveal.
That includes 130 Conservative MPs, 41 Labour MPs and three Liberal Democrats.
Three members of the DUP, two independents and Reform’s only MP complete the list.
The total value of the donations from pro-Israel groups, individuals, and Israeli state institutions amounts to over one million pounds.”
