Smarter people than me will write about how we got here, but one thing that’s striking about the university protests is the absence of an actual peace movement. There are pro-Israel and pro-Palestine groups, but what you don’t see is a broad movement for a full ceasefire, more…
In case anyone is confused by what I want. I want the killing and the dying to stop. Now. I want freedom and dignity and peace and security for everyone. And I want to get there as quickly and as effectively as possible. We may disagree on the means. But these are my ends.
I will probably delete this, but there is a certain kind of American, yelling at me in a certain kind of way, to whom I want to say: "Have you been to an Indian reservation? Have you made amends? And—do you pay taxes? You know they fund the bombs? Have you considered declaring…
There is, and there can be, a wide range of opinions on the university protests. But unleashing police violence on them is wrong in every possible way.
There are many organizations doing great work for peace and human rights in Israel/Palestine. If you'd like to support that work, here are three I can vouch for:
hamoked.org, breakingthesilence.org.il, & alandforall.org/english/?d=ltr
Please share this widely. Thank you!
I am still amazed by people who look back at these past 200 days and just keep repeating, "there was no other way." What does that even mean? Countless decisions were and are made every day. Humans have agency. There's *always* another way. Always.
The protesters have taken “an extremist, maximalist, inflammatory, unreasonable, & totally illogical approach which is harmful to the pro-Palestinian cause,” wrote Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib, Palestinian analyst who has lost a staggering 31 members of his family

I support students’ freedom of speech and right to peaceful assembly; I reject police violence, excessive use of force, and attempts to trample on the First Amendment; censorship and suppression of free expression are inconsistent with American values and what makes our country…
My new op-ed regarding the campus protests is published!

Thanks to @Newsweek & @bungarsargon for giving the peace supporters the opportunity to oppose the calls…
Hezbollah, a terrorist group, has killed tens of thousands of innocents in Syria. Praising them and raising their flag within the pro-Palestine movement is just another betrayal of the innocent children's blood in Gaza.
As we continue to monitor the ongoing anti-Israel encampment at @UCBerkeley, we've noticed some concerning developments:
- Activists are still blocking the historic Sather Gate, and displaying banners that glorify "resistance," featuring Hamas' inverted triangle symbol
- Sproul…
If I seem less charitable to Free Palestine today than three months ago, the countless death threats, rape threats, smear campaigns, outright lies, and even attacks by figures like Hasan on my interracial marriage are part of that growing anger.
I think some of you care about…
I’m not going to share the video but in case you’re wondering, “Zionists don’t deserve to live” is deeply antisemitic and should be universally condemned by anyone whose stated goals are peace and justice.
I am not a Zionist and I would genuinely feel alarmed for my physical safety around anyone saying things like this, because IME just existing is enough to be called a "Zionist" it's really a term I wish people would stop using as if it has unambiguous meaning

Egypt has put together a new ceasefire deal. Representatives from Cairo are coming to Israel to discuss it. These are the elements of the deal:
* A year-long ceasefire and no entry into Rafah.
* The release of all the hostages over a period of ten weeks.
* A declaration that…
They’ve since moved to the other field, leaving the art installation unobstructed.
@Stanford recently gave explicit instructions not to camp overnight or interfere with admit weekend events, so tomorrow—when clubs are expected to table in that space—will be interesting.
