#IDF burns down Aqsa University Library in Gaza, including it's vast archive of historic manuscript. This comes after they leveled #Gaza University months ago, one of the oldest universities in the world. Academics who defend #Israel are toothless genociders and deserve to be deligitimized. You can't be an honest knowledge producer and also defend the fascist eradication of history.

"Biden’s stubborn malice and cruelty to the Palestinians is just one of many gruesome riddles presented to us by Western politicians and journalists. .. It would have been easy for Western leaders to choke off their impulse of unconditional solidarity with an extremist regime while also acknowledging the necessity of pursuing and bringing to justice those guilty of war crimes on 7 October..."
This is literally money talking and feeling it has been disrespected by someone expressing their opposition to further killing after 35,000+ Gazans (at least half women and children) have already been slaughtered and seen their open air confinement zone razed in reply to the Oct 7 loss of 1,200 Israelis.
We have here a picture of exactly the calculus our politicians are using to assess their larger interests in relation to Gaza.
Netanyahu and Biden governments in meltdown again as three countries bypass US veto and declare Palestine a state
The US and Israeli governments have reacted with fury to announcements by three European governments, at the same time, that they are recognising Palestinian statehood. Ireland, Norway and Spain have all now formally declared Palestine to be a state.
"I feel like a lot of people are showing their own callousness. I keep hearing people wonder why college students would care so much about people they don't know and why they would risk their own education and future for someone else.
Canada’s largest private high school recently organized a genocide solidarity trip in which students cooked for Israeli soldiers. In a sane world, the school’s charitable status would be revoked.
The IDF has ignored US advice on how to avoid the mass killing of civilians in Gaza & hasn't even implemented its own existing avoidance policies. "There’s a huge disagreement on strategy now.
"The US has given Israel carte blanche up till now & continues to ship light weapons."
It's absolutely clear to the Palestinians that "the US is doing next to nothing to save them from the onslaught of the Israeli forces."
"The billions of our pounds that have been used to subsidise the weapons going to #Israel, that have been used to slaughter people in #Gaza, should be going into social housing, into our schools, into our #NHS", says #AndrewFeinstein
‘Dozens of officers raided the encampment before dawn, arresting and hospitalizing students after pepper-spraying and pushing them to the ground. “I repeatedly said that my family has been killed, and that is why I am here.“
On the ICC warrants for Hamas & Israeli leaders, one line of protest is that “Hamas are autocrats but Bibi is democratically elected.” Um, so what? Whatever you think of Israeli voting choices, only leaders can be held responsible for giving the orders amounting to “Go ahead, slaughter the innocents.” I honestly don’t get it.
"In Israelis' wallowing and victimhood; in endless self-righteous panels on TV; in cries about an antisemitic world and the injustice of bundling Israel with Hamas, there's one fundamental, fateful question missing: Did Israel commit war crimes in Gaza? No one dares deal with this critical, key question: Were there, or were there not, crimes?"
