American tax dollars are being spent on military grade equipment so police can repress students protesting genocide at home, while billions more are spent to continue the atrocities in Gaza. A never ending, dystopian nightmare.
We’ve witnessed an Orwellian effort to describe peaceful encampments as somehow inherently violent. Now we see actual violence and it’s committed by fascist/Zionist thugs against those same peaceful anti-genocide protesters. Where are the officials condemnations?

Statement from the UCLA encampment about tonight’s violent attacks from pro-Zionist protesters.
It should be clear by now that the real choice is not between opposing actual antisemitism, opposing anti-Palestinian racism that is rampant in this country, and opposing an unfolding genocide in Gaza. Rather, to be ethical one must oppose all these at the same time.

I think one day people will think of the current moment in this country the same way we think about the Salem Witch Trials. The extreme defamation of Palestinian solidarity protestors of all faiths is based on framing them as evil, seeing and believing that they are the vanguard…
All this repression of students and faculty across North America in 2024 is an attempt to maintain the veil of denial about the incredibly brutal nature and reality of colonial Zionism for Palestinians.
Do you really think that @POTUS knows what "intifada" means? Do you think he asked a Palestinian or an Arabic speaker?
Pro-Israeli thugs attack @UCLA students at encampment by students of all faiths protesting genocide in Gaza. Yet all we have had is a discourse that frames all this about "antisemitism" rather than about the ethical imperative of genocide prevention. Let's see if the university…
And what has administration done to protect these students?

I see, but bombing entire universities and reducing schools to rubble is not “hate” but part of our shared “values” I take it? The travesty of establishment Democrats and their anti-Palestinian racism.

We’ve witnessed an Orwellian effort to describe peaceful encampments as somehow inherently violent. Now we see actual violence and it’s committed by fascist/Zionist thugs against those same peaceful anti-genocide protesters. Where are the officials condemnations?
“You stand no chance, old lady!” Pro-Israel rioters at UCLA acting like total cartoon villains
Vicious & perverse. This is a sickness that destroys the soul.
With the protection of the Israeli army, Israeli civilian gangs are unloading aid trucks and preventing them from reaching the hungry in Gaza. A barbaric, bloodthirsty society devoid of humanity. #Gazagenocidd
@nikhil_palsingh People got mad at Richard Nixon (who did not literally control the Ohio National Guard) because he called campus protestors bums. Biden went much farther than that in calling them violent anti-Semites who needed to be stopped.
BREAKING: Fordham University students launch a Gaza solidarity encampment, just hours after encampments were swept at CCNY and Columbia.
@UssamaMakdisi Thanks, Ussama. I will keep this in my heart as I move a motion before the University of Saskatchewan Faculty Union this afternoon to support BDS. Inshallah.
150 students occupied this hall for nearly three weeks in 1985 to protest South African apartheid and there was never this level of forceful police. But then again Afrikaaners didn’t have 86% of Congress voting to provide blank check support and obedient elite media support.
@CollinRugg @ScooterCasterNY In they go. Wild.
@UssamaMakdisi We're building the archive for that day accountabilityarchive.org
Pro-Israel counterprotestors started tearing down @UCLA encampment barriers and screamed "Second nakba!" referring to the mass displacement & dispossession of Palestinians during the 1948 Arab-Israeli war. Per @latimes @safinazzal on the scene with another video:
And here you can see officers entering an academic building with their weapons drawn, in response to college students protesting their tax & tuition dollars contributing to a plausible genocide
You provided the weapons that killed them, rejected the international calls to end the slaughter, and denied that they’re being starved. Their suffering is on you, the administration you serve, and the state you protect from accountability.
Today I met with families from Gaza. I heard the suffering that they and their loved ones continue to endure. Some killed or wounded, others displaced. We are working tirelessly to get more aid to people in Gaza and secure an immediate ceasefire and release of hostages.
Anyone who thinks this militarized response to the demonstrators will end their anger over Israel’s genocide is nuts. Shame on Columbia, its donors, its pathetic President, & the NYPD. And btw, this will have consequences in November.
If this was happening during a Trump presidency CNN and MSNBC would be insisting that we’re living in a fascist dictatorship.
Shocking footage shows several officers at Washington University St. Louis beating a professor, slamming him, and dragging his limp body. SIUE history professor Steve Tamari is reportedly hospitalized with broken ribs and a broken hand. One doctor told him he's lucky to be alive.
THREAD: The eruption of protests in solidarity with the Palestinian people at numerous Western universities, and throughout the United States in particular, represents a pivotal moment.
Join us for this Nakba Day panel discussing the colonial continuum connecting 1948 to the Gaza Genocide
Honoured to be joined by Prof @abedtakriti, Dr @4cdesai, and Prof Avi Shlaim for an online panel tracing the origins of Israel's genocidal assault on Gaza in Britain's colonial past & drawing out lessons for British policymakers today. Register here: Nakba76.Eventbrite.com
It is insane that the US is paying for both Israel's genocide and the embarrassingly lame relief measures.
US military's pier in Gaza to cost $320 million (Reuters) - The U.S. military's cost estimate to build a pier off Gaza to deliver humanitarian aid has risen to $320 million
Anyone who has witnessed Zionist counter protesters at college campuses knows how vile and racist they are. They spew open genocidal racism about Arabs, use racial epithets, provoke physical fights, spit on and curse at people, etc. Somehow none of this makes it into media…
@UssamaMakdisi and "terrorist supporters". that's their new claws out tactic
I dunno @NYT could it be bc our country is the one bankrolling the genocide?
👇this deception sums up USA diplomacy for 40 years.
Essential read by Israeli “opposition” leader Yair Lapid in yesterday's Haaretz: “No one is asking us to establish a Palestinian state tomorrow, or to sacrifice even one grain of land (...) This is a process that will take years, and the burden of proof will be on [Palestinians]”
