“I’m a professor who got fired and arrested for protesting Israel’s Gaza war”
For nearly 20 years, Danny Shaw served as a professor of Latin American and Caribbean studies at the City College of New York. But, last month, he was accused of anti-Semitism and fired for his outspoken criticism of Israel’s actions in Gaza as well as the use of US weapons and money in the enclave’s destruction.
“They try to label us as terrorists, but what are our crimes? Student encampments, books, the truth?” says Shaw.
Comme Ghassan Abu Sitta que les nazis allemend ont menacer de poursuite s'il assistai à une condérence où il a été solicité pour parler non pas de politique, mais de la difficulté de soigner à #Gaza
Sans chercher à savoir, la France collabo lui a aussi interdit ke territoire en arguant l'interdiction nazie Allemande qui collabire aux génocide de #Netanyahu
"Police have beaten and arrested several demonstrators at a pro-Palestine protest in New York’s Brooklyn in the latest crackdown on voices speaking against the war on Gaza in the United States.
"Protesters gathered on Saturday in the Bay Ridge neighbourhood in southwest Brooklyn, home to a large Muslim community, including people of Palestinian and Yemeni origins.
"Local sources said at least a dozen arrests were made on Saturday out of a crowd of several hundred."
Establishment rag NYT ran a propaganda piece of State thugs of the Nazi entity Israel about how the "good guys" in the genocidal entity's criminal gang i.e "law enforcement" are not allowed to do their job by the "bad guys", when in reality the whole existence of that genocidal entity is predicated on stealing, lying, kidnapping, torture, murder, ethnic cleansing & dispossessing weak.
The ruling class convenient fiction of "good guys" within administrative state not being allowed to do their job i.e washing off ones crimes by shifting the blame onto others while still benefiting from statusquo is a time tested strategy ruling class dishes out to please the shitlibs.
Their argument is: Only if you allowed us "the good guys" to torture Jewish terrorists just like how we torture Palestinians (whether terrorists or not), we could have made the colonialisation more tolerable.
This is the argument I hear all the time from the rotten criminals who got retired as head of police & army about fascists who hold power in our shithole.
Rags like NYT to exist to establishment legitimacy to these criminals. These are not anyone's friends (both NYT & the ruling class criminals they rub shoulders with).
NYT is an extension of deep state/steel frame or whatever the name state's permanent structure that remains constant from one election to next.
> “And the answer is very simple. They cannot confront our courts. And the legal community finds it almost impossible to face the political community, which is supported by the street. So everything starts with the street.”
What they dont deliberately say is the crucial next step in this series of steps (as it exposes their complicity in ethnic cleansing & organised State terrorism they engage in on day to day basis along with tacit support they provide).
They end the line of reasoning with street because State goons deliberately chose for fascism on the street to thrive with no challenge, as its in their & their bosses (ruling classes) interest for the Nazism & Fascism to grow — else they would have suppressed it long back.
They purpose behind deliberately stopping at this exact step, rather than continuing with the natural extension of that chain of reasoning is to shift the blame from them to fascists & their role is conveniently left out/hidden.

Israeli soldiers rounded up Ahmad Safi and his male family members in Khan Younis and made them stand atop a sand dune for 12 hours as the soldiers took cover behind them during a firefight with Palestinian resistance fighters. This is their story.
“I call upon all free people in the world, to anyone with a shred of humanity… there are massacres happening here. Children are being torn to pieces. What’s the fault of these children and women?”

Activists from the Faith-Based Left Movement demonstrated yesterday (Friday) in Jerusalem against the desecration and obstruction of humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip. The protest was joined by members of the Prayerful Jerusalem organization. The protest took place in front of the offices of the "Jewish Truth" NGO, demanding an end to the war in Gaza and allowing the transfer of humanitarian aid, while stopping the violent attacks, desecration and obstruction of aid trucks, escorted by a headquarters supported by the NGO. The protesters held flour sacks and banners that read "Starvation is a war crime" and "Stop bombing Gaza."
It should be noted that at the Faith-Based Left conference held last February at the Heichal Shlomo in Jerusalem, 11 discussion circles were held and only one was held behind closed doors with the participation of 13 religious reserve soldiers who served in Gaza, the North and the West Bank. They provided a detailed report on the extent of killing and destruction across the Strip, including the starvation of the Palestinian population.
In the invitation to yesterday's protest, the organizers wrote that the criminal actions of the settlers who attacked aid convoys to Gaza last week "contradict the Torah." "Therefore, every soul is obligated to cry out and warn against the atrocity being committed in Israel," they emphasized. Large police forces arrived at the protest site and during the event, arrested a young man wearing a shirt depicting the Palestinian flag.

“We saw a red light flash and everything collapsed on our head. Everyone at home – my sister, grandmother and mother – were buried under the rubble of a multistorey building.”
“I remained under the rubble for four hours as I heard footsteps on top, trying to pull us out and I kept screaming and crying. I was almost breathless with pieces of cement and dust on my mouth and face."

Um número desproporcionalmente elevado de soldados israelitas que servem e morrem em #Gaza são de ascendência etíope. Alguns creem que a guerra se tornou uma espécie de bilhete de entrada na sociedade israelita – mas a que preço?
The Israeli forces have prevented 3,000 aid trucks from entering Gaza in the past two weeks, according to a statement by the Gaza media office.
The office said in a statement on Telegram that the army has also prevented 690 sick and wounded people from travelling abroad for treatment as the Rafah and Kerem Shalom crossings stay closed for the 13th day in a row.
