If only @Keir_Starmer & his government had done everything to stop the genocide how many innocent lives could have been saved? Instead they sold arms & provided cover & intelligence

Joseph Stiglitz, Nobel prize winner and one of the most important Jewish intellectuals in the world, adds his voice to debunk the narrative that pro-Palestinian protests on campuses is antisemitic. He calls it "normal human empathy":

"What a large number of young people are expressing is normal human empathy. They don't want to see people die unnecessarily. And I think the pictures, the fact that tens of thousands of people have died, including lots of children and women, innocent bystanders, in the attack on Gaza, in a very short span of time, has had a horrific impact. And they're saying this is unjust. And it has brought back to the fore that much of the architecture of the world was shaped in a colonial era. And many of these people are from countries that themselves were shaped in a colonial era.

So what I hear, and what's going on, is a real sense of empathy for so many people dying unnecessarily, and outrage at collective punishment, which is unacceptable. And it brings back to the fore reflections on colonialism and its consequences, that remind us that history doesn't just disappear, even if one would like it to."
