Protect someone the way the UK protects genocide: “Cenk Uygur, Hasan Piker Banned From UK After Israel Criticisms: ‘This Is Absolutely Kafkaesque’ The Young Turks co-creator says he found out while trying to board a flight to London for a speech at Oxford”
Cenk Uygur, co-founder of the Young Turks and a resolute critic of Israel, and his nephew Hasan Piker, the left-wing political commentator and influencer, both said Sunday that they had been banned from traveling to the U.K., stating that British authorities cited their public criticisms of Israel. … “I’ve been banned from the UK,” he wrote. “I tried to get on a flight to London to attend SXSW London and give a speech at Oxford. I’ve been banned for criticizing Israel. Are we free anymore? This is oppression of Weste

I’ve been banned for criticizing Israel. Are we free anymore? This is oppression of Western citizens by our own governments on behalf of a different country!” … “The British government is saying they’re banning me because I am ‘a serious risk to the public order’ due to my criticism of Israel. They say that my charge that Israel controls the American government through donations to 94% of Congress, while factual, is antisemitic nonetheless. Don’t know if facts will soon be banned in Britain.”

The Israeli Knesset is considering a bill that would place Palestinian historical sites in the West Bank under direct Israeli civil law, stripping them of their protected status under international law. Experts say it’s annexation in all but name.

Spain: We’re outraged that Israeli barbarians are brutalising our peace activists… we’re perfectly capable barbarians who can brutalise them ourselves (we were trained by them, after all).
Any word from friend of Palestine, Pedro Sánchez on this? Are all these officers being fired as we speak?
Oh this? Just Israeli barbarians doing what they do best, being barbarians; beating up women and children (this is tame, they’ve already murdered tens of thousands of them in an ongoing genocide).
Today, Europe’s credibility is at stake,” Spanish Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Albares told reporters before Tuesday’s meeting in Luxembourg. “I expect every European country to uphold what the International Court of Justice and the UN say on human rights and the defence of international law. Anything different would be a defeat for the European Union.”
But German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul called Spain’s request “inappropriate”, saying any issues should instead be discussed in a “critical, constructive dialogue with Israel”.
“I'm the clearest defender of Israel in Brussels, Germany's Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul says.”

Well, I hope history is taking notes in the unlikely case that we have some new Nuremberg trials in the future. Always good to know who enables genocide.
On the second anniversary of the Hamas-led attacks on Israel, Johann Wadephul praised himself of being "the one who always stands most clearly on Israel's side" when he is surrounded by his EU counterparts in Brussels.
This is what the barbarians in Israel do and proudly broadcast to Westerners.
What do they do to Palestinians when there are no cameras or international attention?
(We know what they do because it has been documented over and over again: torture, rape and sexual assault, murder… the last of which has now been made legal.)
Watch this and be outraged. Not because it happened to Europeans but because it is happening to Palestinians every day and has been not just for the past few years but for over 78 years of settler colonialism, ethnic cleansing, apartheid, and genocide.

An article on the evacuations carried out last week by IUPALS (Italian Universities for Palestinian Students) that @joynewacc shared with me (which also has lovely photos of her and the other students in it):
While the article is generally good, it does call it a “war” (it’s an ongoing genocide) and it does focus very much on how thankful the students are for the evacuation (which, of course, they are) without mentioning that it is the bare minimum a country whose government is complicit in the genocide could do to atone for its sins.
It also doesn’t mention, for that matter, that a certain professor at the university had to post 15 viral videos on Instagram until the Italian government’s on-purpose blocking of the

It also doesn’t mention, for that matter, that a certain professor at the university had to post 15 viral videos on Instagram until the Italian government’s on-purpose blocking of the evacuation became more trouble for them than it was worth, thereby forcing their hand to allow it to go ahead (this is why we’d been waiting since November. The Italian government saw that the evacuations were working and decided to put a spanner in the works right before Joy’s group was due to leave.)
Having met and spent time with all of the students in Milan last week I can attest that it is *we* who are so much better off having them with us. And it is us who should be thankful.
We also have so much work left to do: To force our governments to cease their complicity in genocide, to compel Israel to end this genocide, and to dismantle the apartheid state and begin the reparations process. Those of us on the right side of history will not stop until the people of Palestine are free.
PS. While Joy is safely in Milan now, her family are not. You can support them using this fundraiser: chuffed.org/project/farah-need…

“A new Israeli report warns that the academic boycott of the country’s universities has become so extensive that the damage could be ‘irreversible.’ — It’s as if the world has closed itself off to me, says researcher Moran Zaga.”
Yes, Moran, it’s what happens when you’re committing genocide. There’s an easy fix: stop committing genocide.
Under andre verdenskrig var det ingen vesentlig motstandsbevegelse innad Tyskland - med unntak av hvisking og tisking i Tyske universitet. Den hviskingen ble eventuelt om til baksnakking, og eventuelt om til skrik.
Auch die Korvetten der Saʿar-6-Klasse, mit denen Israels Militär die #GlobalSumudFlotilla abfängt und die Besatzungen entführt, stammen von #TKMS aus Deutschland.

VIENNA (AP) — The final of the Eurovision Song Contest arrives Saturday, with tight security and rainy weather failing to dent the enthusiasm of fans, or the opposition of critics who think Israel shouldn’t be invited to the party.
