This image is from Birzeit University in the West Bank which was raided by Israel today using live ammunition and tear gas.

Over 40 people were injured, mostly students.

More than 8,000 students are trapped inside.

But it’s controversial to talk about scholasticide.

Le Haut-Commissariat aux droits de l'homme de l'ONU a affirmé mercredi que la discrimination et la ségrégation exercées par Israël à l'encontre des Palestiniens en Cisjordanie s'intensifiaient, s'apparentant à une forme de "système d'apartheid" ⤵️

I love conceptual innovation but I love conceptual parsimony even more. Maybe IR doesn't have the right model for Trump's foreign policy, but the sociology of organised crime does. Spare us the neologisms

An alien just landing on Earth and reading this would not understand what this is about because European leaders are just unable to name things. This is a disaster and a shame

European weakness on full display by these horribly contorted responses from Merz, Macron and Starmer - neither condoning nor condemning US actions in Venezuela

Such weakness only risks making the Europeans more vulnerable (ie Greenland)

"University administrators understand exactly what’s happening, and proceed anyway. As long as enrollment numbers hold and tuition checks clear, they turn a blind eye to the learning crisis while faculty are left to manage the educational carnage in their classrooms"
AI is Destroying the University and Learning Itself
Students use AI to write papers, professors use AI to grade them, degrees become meaningless, and tech companies make fortunes. Welcome to the death of higher education.

Après l’UNRWA, 37 ONG internationales majeures (ACF, MSF, MdM, HI, NRC, Oxfam, etc.) dont plusieurs ONG françaises, sont interdites d’accès à Gaza. ❌

La façon dont la presse minimise ou banalise la représentation raciste infecte de Rokhaya Diallo dans Charlie Hebdo rappelle la fonction particulière endossée par ce journal depuis vingt ans : légitimer le racisme en faisant passer ses victimes pour des rabat-joie qui ne comprennent rien à l'humour.
