Never forget that Democrats are the ones who tee'd this up. Every faculty member that did not condemn the persecution of students on their campus, the presence of police, you facilitated this. And we will never forget it.

We will have to sanction Israel from the ground up, not the top down. Before the ruling class cuts ties, we will all have to cut ties: in our schools, our workplaces, our cultural institutions, our cities, our states. To do that we must systematically organize & build power locally.

Palestinians don’t need your sympathy or your pity or your symbolic gestures. We need you to cut ties with our killers and colonizers. We need you to boycott, divest from, and sanction Israel. Yes that includes academic institutions, whose commitment to genocide and apartheid is well documented.

Israel is plotting to colonise Gaza.
This is all being openly discussed in the Israeli media.
It is a damning indictment that Israeli newspapers offer more details of what's actually happening than newspapers in, say, the US or UK.
