Doesn’t seem like a total accident that the NYPD raids on students at Columbia and CCNY are happening at the same time that Rafah is under brutal siege
"if something happens to Bisan i swear" something is happening to Bisan. she has lost friends and family, she feels unsafe, her country is constantly being bombarded, she's constantly in danger. yall cannot wait for her to die before you do something. keep protesting and boycott

In case you missed it. The NYPD spent $150 Million *extra* last year to catch people who weren't able to afford to pay the subway fare. They owed just $104,000.

The Civil Rights movement literally had to deal with the same kind of whining from white liberals.
The journalists, the poets, the babies, the women, the men, the trees, everyone. The genocide must end. Israel must end the genocide and apartheid of Palestinians.
One of the most pernicious things about how anti-semitism has been weaponized to defend Israel is that it clouds out and diminishes the very real and disturbing examples of actual bigotry toward Jews like this one.
