Get set for the worst conversation about campus antisemitism ever recorded

journalist Samaa Khullar, one of 3 Palestinian journalists at Columbia J school, writes Teen Vogue on the difficulty for Palestinian student journalists covering their schools while mainstream media uses them as 'fixers'—while journalists are killed in Gaza.

I’m a professor at CUNY School of Law. I'm calling on Félix V. Matos Rodríguez to affirm amnesty for all students & workers arrested when you gave the NYPD the okay to break up the Gaza encampment & for CUNY not to participate in the DA ’s prosecution. Tell the DA to drop the charges.

As jon ben-menachem points out, Ken Klippenstein wrote on Monday that 'a move into Rafah city ... wouldn’t involve the type of weapons Biden has said he would suspend' because the high-rise-bombing phase is largely over. kenklippenstein.com/p/why-bidens-t…

'Nakba and Shoah, the Hebrew word for Holocaust, mean the same thing: catastrophe. I reject the premise that one people’s salvation must come at another’s destruction. I am committed to creating a world where this does not happen…this cannot be done from within the Biden Admin.'

I have not seen anyone else noting this: The weapons Biden paused (aircraft delivered bombs) are not ones used by a ground invasion, while the ones he's now approving (tank ammo, vehicles) are.

He doesn't oppose a Rafah ground invasion. He's supplying it.

funniest part of this story is the NYPD not responding to a request for comment about the 86 people staffed to respond to requests for comment

People need to stop being so self centered and get that not everything is connected! Race has nothing to do with class! What happens abroad doesn’t relate to events in DC! The universe is indifferent! I just ate six pounds of prunes and whatever happens next will be a total surpr

Amazing. Just the specter of a protest is enough to disrupt the city these days.
