1/ I’m an Israeli academic. My community is too silent about the ongoing war in Gaza. Here is how I see things based on reading hundreds of articles and watching thousands of videos and images about the war. This tweet chain contains my conclusions as a sort of executive summary.

Reminder! Deadline for submission is only a few days away!

As @alexcowan2 noted (he's locked), this is every full-time early-career academic position: junior research fellows, departmental lecturers, even (I think) some permanent jobs. This will have a devastating effect on international knowledge exchange and intellectual networks.

First draft of my last chapter is... done? OMG.

I have a group of about 20 files, all scans from post-war trials records, and for some reason I did not record where I got them from... why do I do this to myself.
