- I still can't get over the fact that the psychopath behind the "protests" blocking aid to Gaza is an American who fled to Israel to escape charges for his suspected role in the murder of Alex Odeh, a Palestinian in the US. @JoeBiden could literally extradite him and stop this.
- Jews, he's refusing to serve Jews. This is illegal
- It is impossible for me to see this and not immediately think of the photographs of starving children and teens liberated from the death camp with my grandfather at the end of the Holocaust. Enough denial, enough excuses, we must stop this. Even one starving child is too manyFadi Zant, 9, suffering from malnutrition, is treated after being evacuated from northern Gaza to the IMC field hospital in Rafah. The Gaza Strip faces famine as Israeli attacks continue into the sixth month. - @alijadallah66
- I saw this without any context and thought they were detained by the university without water for 21 hours. But rather they chose to do a sit-in for 21 hours, were unprepared without water and food, and are upset at the university for it?

The US rarely interfered in these conflicts, and the only time Israel ever got involved was supporting Zaire against the US backed AFDL. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Congoleseโฆ en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Conโฆ - Christopher Nolan: hey can we have a short Gรถdel cameo Writing team: wait why Christopher Nolan: movie would be incomplete without him Writing team: Chris
- Fuck you don't speak on my behalf ever. May the souls of the dead haunt you for the rest of your miserable lifePrime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu: "Whatโs happening in Americaโs college campuses is horrific. Antisemitic mobs have taken over leading universities. They call for the annihilation of Israel. They attack Jewish students. They attack Jewish faculty.
00:00 - This is classic antisemitism BTW, the kind that gets Jews killed
- Wildly reasonable take
- I'm reading about the history of Jews in Morocco and holy shit. Jews in Fez weren't allowed to wear shoes until the Sultan said they could, but that made people get mad and kill Jews, so Jews tried to get the Sultan to outlaw Jews wearing shoes again. Like I'm sorry what
- Israeli leftists: "my parents were murdered yesterday, but still we must push on for a better future, which means full recognition of both peoples who are sharing this land" American leftists: "let us cheer the liberation fighters for decolonizing the peace music festival"
