The statement, which Trump shared on social media, also includes the word genocide.

Hamas’s statement, that Trump seemed to welcome, has flipped the script on Netanyahu. Essentially they have taken us back to the third stage of the last ceasefire agreement - the agreement Israel broke to avoid the very negotiations Hamas is calling for.

I’m filled with horror hearing about the violent synagogue attack in Manchester. Messages of solidarity like this one have helped

Many are afraid to act, intimidated by disinformation and fear of being labelled as antisemitic. Clear statements and clear calls for action would help

In your original letter, two years ago, you wrote asking the community to condemn the actions of Hamas, calling it a moral imperative. This type of call is absent in the current letter. Asking the community to condemn and act to stop Israel’s genocide would be very powerful.

Apart from a few individuals I don’t know much about what the signatories do and the comments were not directed towards individuals but to the letter and collective organized responses.

I want particularly talking about divesting from the academic community (i don’t think that’s so important in stopping the genocide). I was thinking of broader action. And of course Israel is not the source of evil in the world - I don’t think that implication can be found in my comments.

I do support all efforts to end the genocide. There are organizations in Israel that act to oppose the genocide, but the academy has not been one of those. The letter did not describe any efforts to end the genocide for me to support. I think that would be helpful.

The letter does not clearly state what can no longer be denied (surely) that Israel is carrying out a genocide. That is deeply painful for us. Every time I write the word I feel it. But it is of course nothing in comparison to the horror of the victims. Clear statements are necessary.

The letter does not call for any action to stop the genocide! If one is concerned about genocide a call for action by any nonviolent means possible is necessary. This includes sanctions and disinvestment.
jeremyginges.bsky.social
The letter deflects all responsibility to the government and does not acknowledge that the genocide has been carried out under a cloak of complicit silence (at best).
jeremyginges.bsky.social
The letter does not take any accountability for the lack of action in the two years between the prior statement and this one. Where was our community during that time?
