The story of 6-yr old Hind—trapped in her family car after Israeli forces killed them—is one of the most haunting. Some of her last words spoken were with a dispatcher: “The tank is next to me…please come take me, please. Please stay with me…It’s almost night, I am scared…”

How is this breaking news? Netanyahu has said for months that he will invade Rafah no matter what.

Hundreds, if not thousands, of college students have been arrested for engaging in the quintessentially American activity of protest, in this case against US complicity in a genocide. All the White House can come up with is to smear them and willfully ignore their clear message.

🇺🇸: Laws don’t apply to Israel StateSpox Patel on ICC/Israel: “We do not believe the ICC has jurisdiction on this, that being said, we work closely with the ICC on a number of key areas… Ukraine, Darfur, Sudan, but on this particular instance they just do not have jurisdiction”
This is such a dangerous precedent being set by Democratic Party leaders who are playing right into the hands of MAGA crackdown on both activists and higher education.
Israel just struck Deir Al Balah, reports of children in casualty, again. This is a war against children. Against current and future generations of Palestinians.
Were they wrong on Vietnam? No. Were they wrong on South Africa? No. Were they wrong on Iraq? No. They won’t be wrong on Israel, either. Signed, A Historian.
No one asks how Palestinian students are supposed to "feel safe" at institutions who invest in and profit off of the murder of their relatives.
My latest @RStatecraft piece analyzes the impact of the genocide in #Gaza on relationships within the #GCC. This article quotes @Abdulkhaleq_UAE and @AzizAlghashian. responsiblestatecraft.org/gulf-states-ga… @tparsi @QuincyInst @KelleyBVlahos @DBDesRoches @Ibishblog @MazMHussain @AAboudouh @7UAEHD
“‘Yes, it is a genocide,’ says an Israeli Holocaust scholar” For Zeteo, I discussed Amos Goldberg’s scathing remarks, & quoted @Alonso_GD & @4noura on the ex-ICC chief judge’s claim that the ICJ didn’t say there was a plausible genocide: zeteo.com/p/gaza-genocid…
How quickly the state responds with violent force when the ‘crime’ is peaceful free speech protest of war crimes at home compared to “no red line” and “here’s billions more” for homicidal maniac bombing of children & civilians in Gaza. You now know all you need to know. The rest…
Smotrich again uses unquestionably genocidal language: "We must destroy Rafah, Nusseirat, & Dir al-Balah 'wipe out the memory of Amalek! …There's no half- measure. Rafah, Dir al-Balah Nusseirat absolute destruction!”

In undergrad our 🇵🇸 events would get disrupted, there was even an arson attack on a display. Adult men came to our events & history classes to intimidate students, w/ little concern for student safety. Anti-Palestinian bias isn’t new, you see it in the crackdown on protests now.

Watch this. Just watch it. UT Austin students have been brutalized multiple times now, and this is their response.
Incredible sights at UT Austin as the growing protest marches against retreating (and mace wielding) cops, to retake the south lawn they were forced from earlier. Protests will not stop until UT divests from all interests in Israel. Hartzell and Abbot can't intimidate us.
Again… why hasn’t this trend been covered in western media
While perpetrating genocide, wiping out entire families, and reportedly killing over 10,000 women, the Israeli army is dressing in the clothing of their female victims and taking photographs. #GazaGenocide
No one asks how Palestinian students are supposed to "feel safe" at institutions who invest in and profit off of the murder of their relatives.
After Biden accepted the International Criminal Court's use of territorial jurisdiction in Ukraine to prosecute Putin, it would be the height of hypocrisy if Biden objected to the ICC's use of territorial jurisdiction in Palestine to prosecute Netanyahu. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
