This is disgusting. This is incitement for violence. They want violent mobs to physically attack university students doing nothing wrong. These genocidal clowns need to be stopped. Are you going to do anything @nswpolice? Or are you lapdogs for Zionist terrorism of the public?
The @australian has again today decided to attack my colleague Dr Randa Abdel Fattah. The Australian and associated media outlets have been repeating calls over the last couple of weeks to rescind Randa’s ARC Future Fellowship and for Macquarie to “review” her employment. 1/
#Gaza: UN experts appalled by #Israel’s ‘vicious & indiscriminate’ attacks on women, call for #CeasefireNOW & end to weapons export by States. "States cannot ignore that these weapons are being used to kill & maim women and children." ohchr.org/en/press-relea…
Israel’s military is preparing to invade Rafah - dropping bombs in the city where a million displaced Palestinians are seeking shelter, ahead of a ground invasion. This is a deadly escalation while 70% of Gaza is facing 'catastrophic hunger' and children are starving to death.
Absolutely disgraceful. @GhassanAbuSitt1 is a British-Palestinian surgeon and the rector of the University of Glasgow. And he was invited to speak at the French senate! Which means this isn't only a violation of speech but a gross attempt to subvert democracy by preventing…

Jewish author here, and for years I've used my social media to teach folks about the history of "antisemitism," but I will not be using that term anymore. And to fully explain why, we need to get clear on the history of the word. 1/🧵

A question Gallup asked in 1961, about what has been remembered as one of the most iconic and effective protest movements in American history.
Dylan Sullivan, doing his PhD @socsci_mq, just presented his research @POLISatLeeds questioning the consensus on global poverty and China's liberalisation. Sad I couldn't be there. Check out his published work here: tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…
One of the powerful things about protest movements is their “epiphanic power”: the way in which, by suspending the normality of obedience, they reveal hidden power structures and the way many institutions are ultimately rooted in violence, should persuasion fail.

The relentless campaign against @RandaAFattah by the #IsraelLobby and their cronies in the media is reminiscent of the McCarthy witch-hunts of the 50’s and 60’s, now repurposed as “McIsraelism”. Yet another example of the determination to silence any criticism of Israel .

CW: DFV, VAW If a man goes to a dwelling where he no longer lives but is still on the lease, kicks down the door and assaults his former partner, is it breaking and entering? Last year the High Court, by majority, said no. My comment on BA v The King now in @CICrimJ
This whole thread is terrifying. Pro-Israel counter-protesters (you know, the very educated and polite ones, or so I am told) are launching literal fireworks and mace against the UCLA encampment, injuring students, while the police watches from a helicopter

The Roman emperor Augustus once said: "I found Rome built of bricks, I leave her clothed in marble" Considering the huge windfall Australia has enjoyed from commodity exports since 2004, we should have the modern equivalent, but instead we have falling per capita outcomes.…

The way to explain London is this: this man called Count Binface, who really did change his legal name to Count Binface, and, as you can hopefully see, has a bin face, stood in the election for Mayor, and, when the results were announced, he got more votes than the far right did.
