In Defense of Boycotting Israeli Universities: jacobin.com/2024/05/isra...
In Defense of Boycotting Israeli Universities

The apartheid regime attacked Gazan fishing boats after seeing Palestinians using them to catch fish for food.

Two days ago in Nablus IOF-backed settlers burned olive trees (they murdered Bilal Saleh while he was picking olives).
Hanine Hassan @hanine09 After carpet bombing over 45 bakeries & water stations and preventing food assistance into the Gaza Strip, Israel targeted this morning fishing boats after seeing footage of Palestinians catching fish to survive the American-Israeli man-made famine in Gaza. Evil has a name Image 1: screenshot of fish on the beach that was caught by Palestinians Image 2: destroyed and burning fishing boats on a Gaza beach Sulaiman Ahmed @ShaykhSulaiman BREAKING: ISRAELI SETTLERS BURN OLIVE TREES WEST OF NABLUS IN THE WEST BANK Hamas are hiding in olive trees in the West Bank right?

This could be me or any of my X or Bluesky or Facebook academic pals. The person they collected a dossier on was antiracist, pro union strikes, pro "scholarships for Black students" (i mean WTAF?), pro trans rights, critical of No. 10 etc
Government prepared secret dossier on academic’s posts on BLM, 'militant leftism', Israel war
