I just received notice that I am suspended through the entire fall semester for my participation in the first Gaza Solidarity Encampment at Columbia. Admin silently went back on their own deal with students in which they agreed to reverse our mass suspensions due to the outrage.
This is what fucking @NYCParks and NYPD are busy doing on a Sunday afternoon…trying to put a twelve year old child in cuffs who’s selling fruit with her family
When it’s all said and done and more of these field execution reports surface it’ll be clear that the IDF in Gaza operated not as a military but as a patchwork of death squads. Truly, Nazi shit
Rec’d footage showing NYPD turn on the LRAD message about prohibiting amplified sound (which says if you voluntarily stop, you won’t be arrested) *after* Beaudette tells SRG to move in to arrest @NerdeenKiswani.
Footage ALSO includes SRG directive of “encirclement” (kettling).
One day after the publication of a 60-page report on police repression by Within Our Lifetime, the NYPD
arrested WOL Chair Nerdeen Kiswani and multiple protestors at an action tonight in NYC, sparking outrage and condemnation. Nerdeen and multiple protestors have since been released, while others remain in custody. #ResistRepression #NYPDUnveiled
“If you’re a fellow Biden staffer and can’t skip our morale-booster party, wear green in solidarity with Palestine” are you kidding? QUIT YOUR JOB. Your stupid liberal tactics only serve to make you feel less guilty for your complicity in genocide & does nothing to materially help Palestine. Be fucking serious
🚨Israel executed a 13-year-old child, Nahed Barbakh, in Khan Younis when he went outside with a WHITE FLAG to check the road to evacuate his family.
His brother Ramiz (20) rushed to rescue him & was promptly executed.
They were murdered next to their white flags!
Palestinian lady who was held in an Israeli prison says she would wake in the middle of the night to screams from 11-12 year old children that were tied to the beds… she knows those children were subjected to rape and are still imprisoned…🇵🇸💔
Equally important to remember that ICJ ruling is not about what Israel will do: Israel will ignore *any* ruling. This is about forcing the rest of the world to take seriously their obligations to stop an entity now officially accused of genocide by the world’s highest court.
A “ceasefire” is what you demand in an armed conflict. In a genocide you demand an immediate end to all genocidal acts and that is exactly what the ICJ ordered with immediate effect. Please stop helping “Israel” spin its historic defeat as a win.
Locked out of my main @NerdeenKiswani due to a flagged tweet for “abuse and harassment,” linking to a quote by Oxfam about Israel killing 250+ Palestinians daily. My options: delete the tweet and cancel the appeal, or stay locked out for over a week. What should I do?
24 Israeli soldiers were killed during an act of straightforward state terror. They were demolishing entire neighborhoods with high explosives to establish a “buffer zone” between Gaza and exclusively Jewish towns in Israel’s south.
According to the “IDF,” the razing of entire Palestinian communities is necessary for residents to return to their homes in the south. Which is another way of saying that an exclusivist Jewish state can only be maintained through terror, siege and continual bloodshed.
Two Columbia University students, both IOF soldiers, sprayed a chemical weapon on peaceful protesters. Skunk spray is used on Palestinians in the West Bank by the Israeli occupation. It is known to cause nausea, abdominal pain, and vomiting. @Columbia must take action.
Not one NYPD cop in sight. But when a recent pro-Palestine protest just wanted to go into the Oculus, there were cops blocking & locking the entrances.
That protester got *arrested* over a sticker.
Kaz Daughtry has a long history of lying & brutality &… got promoted.
The NYPD runs NYC!

It’s absolutely absurd that we have lying, dirty NYPD cops like Kaz Daugtry, who even other cops say was “overly aggressive” & “disrespectful,” coming on here & trying to lecture protesters putting stickers up about “bad behavior.”
