As the Scientists Against Genocide Encampment enters its third night, MIT Jews for Ceasefire are holding a Seder. We are so proud to support these Jewish students and allies, embodying their values in the face of extreme censorship.

MIT: evening scene of a quad with tents set up, and a table with sign making materials and snacks. Someone is walking by in a keffiyeh
TUFTS: Two hands holding a cardboard sign that says "Free Gaza". In the background you can see two tents, and a quad at sunset.

A day before Passover begins, the rabbi at Columbia University in NYC tells his Jewish students to go home as the school cannot keep them safe after pro-Palestinian protestors on campus yell “Burn Tel Aviv to the ground!” and other pro-violence slogans supporting Hamas.

@w7voa Just-released statement from the #Columbia protestors:

"We firmly reject any form of hate or bigotry and stand vigilant against non-students attempting to disrupt the solidarity being forged among students-Palestinian, Muslim, Arab, Jewish, Black, and pro-Palestinian classmates and colleagues who represent the full diversity of our country."

@palestine

We firmly reject any form of hate or bigotry and stand vigilant against non-students attempting to disrupt the solidarity being forged among students-Palestinian, Muslim, Arab, Jewish, Black, and pro-Palestinian classmates and colleagues who represent the full diversity of our country. We have been peaceful. We follow in the footsteps of the civil rights and anti-war movements in our quest for liberation. We will remain until moved by force or Columbia concedes to our demands: 1. Divest all finances, including the endowment, from corporations that profit from Israeli apartheid, genocide, and occupation in Palestine. 2. Complete transparency for all of Columbia's financial investments. 3. Amnesty for all students and faculty disciplined or fired in the movement for Palestinian liberation.

Germany’s out of hand, crazy version of anti-antisemitism continues in full swing. Last week cancellation of Nancy Fraser, this week that of the rector of Glasgow University.

Dr Ghassan Abu-Sittah, a British-Palestinian medic, has claimed he was invited to give a conference in Berlin about his work as a surgeon in Gaza but was denied entry to the country.

Just last week, Pelosi signed a letter urging Biden to halt military funding to Israel.

Today she... is whipping votes to do just that?

AIPAC’s Super PAC has pledged to spend $100 million in Democratic primaries targeting progressive incumbents who speak out for Palestinian rights — using money from Republican megadonors.

Inconceivable?

TONIGHT!

"Boston Runs Out AIPAC" Parody of the America Runs on Dunkin graphic. Four squares, orange, brown, and pink. In the first square is a B styled like the Boston Red Sox logo. In the second, a little white stick figure guy with a tie, animated so he's fighting. The third box just has the word OUT in the trademark Dunkin bubble letters. The fourth and final box is the AIPAC logo. Beneath that, the words Tonight. 7:30 PM. And the URL innmvmt.org/BostonLaunch

Recently, we tried a bit of an experiment, guided by a core INN principle: we show up for ourselves & each other. A series of #CommunityNights, where we'd bring people together to share food, learn, & support each other to stay in the movement & bring our people with us.

@ifnotnowboston@mastodon.social avatar

So far, our Community Nights have featured a book club on Jewish utopias, a training on storytelling for organizing; an arts and crafts build, and more. We’ve been grateful to gather with so many of you and learn in so many different ways.

People in a large room clustered into smaller groups. Everyone seems to be engaged in animated conversation. There are some big sheets of paper in the wall with illustrated concepts.

#US / "Get it over quick"

Rep. Tim Walberg is wishing U.S. familes "a happy and most blessed Easter," and to the Palestinians caught in Gaza, he hope Israel would "get it over with quickly," and bomb Gaza ‘like Nagasaki and Hiroshima’

Tim Walberg, a Republican congressman from Michigan, made these comments during a gathering with a small group of his constituents, suggesting that Gaza should be subjected to nuclear bombing like Nagasaki and Hiroshima during World War II.

Walberg argued that the US should not spend money on humanitarian aid in Gaza and instead support Israel, which he referred to as the US's "greatest ally, arguably, anywhere in the world."

His comments have been widely criticized as a call for #genocide

https://twitter.com/WhitchMI/status/1773915716603003311?s=20

Tim Walberg, a Republican congressman from Michigan, has a history of making controversial and incendiary comments, including questioning the validity of the #MeToo movement, suggesting that the impeachment inquiry into then-President Donald Trump was a "coup," and expressing skepticism about man-made climate change.

What is #LandDay?

"Every year on March 30, Palestinians observe Land Day, or Yom al-Ard, recalling the events of March 30, 1976, when six unarmed Palestinians were killed and more than 100 injured by Israeli forces during protests against Israel’s confiscation of Palestinian land."

Specifically, there's a bunch of what look like fake accounts all posting a pro-Israel set of hashtags / messages; The other posts by these accounts seem completely random garbage, like a quote from breaking bad with a picture of flamingos, or random "feel good" quotes. https://josh.tel/@josh/112180104323769056

Perry Bacon in the Washington Post (https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2024/03/26/squad-gaza-ceasefire-aipac-primary-races):

“Some of the best members of Congress could be ousted this year. They are facing huge spending campaigns against them, as punishment for taking positions not shared by the wealthy and powerful, most notably their strong opposition to Israel’s military actions in Gaza.

"I hope these members survive. They are the kind of politicians America really needs.”

Us too. And we're not just hoping. We're fighting back. 🧵

AIPAC says it's going to spend $100 million to defeat progressive candidates. That's a lot of money! But it’s not a show of strength. This group knows that it is losing the public, and its desperation is showing.

@ifnotnowboston@mastodon.social avatar

As if supporting an ongoing genocide wasn’t bad enough, AIPAC has endorsed over 100 insurrectionist Republicans, including proponents of the racist and antisemitic “Great Replacement” conspiracy theory.

They do not speak for us as Jews. They do not keep us safe.

It’s long past time to kick this right wing group and its malign influence out of our community, and out of the Democratic Party. Their campaign contributions should be as disqualifying as the NRA’s. And we’re going to make it happen.
