Academic. Researching gender, power & protest.

“Lean In” messages can lower women’s motivation to protest gender inequality https://t.co/dvNe6fHDSw

The more aggressively the Zionists try to stomp out criticism of Israel the more necessary it is to aggressively criticize Israel. Now we're not just opposing genocidal atrocities, we're also opposing an assault on our own civil rights.

The massive Harbour Bridge march was a protest against terrorism by Israel.

The Starmer regime has arrested global symbol of peace and justice Greta Thunberg on streets of London

For holding a sign supporting Palestine Action hunger strikers being slowly murdered in UK dungeons

An image that will be studied in history books

Fascism is already here

[Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt @FranceskAlbs]

Never would I have imagined seeing European leaders turn against their own citizens-crushing protest, free journalism, academic freedom-all to avoid holding a genocidal state to account.
Yet History rarely announces itself as barbarism; it often arrives disguised as civilization.

The GoodLawProject on the unfolding tragedy of 8 🇵🇸 campaigners on hunger strike in 🇬🇧 prisons:

‘Lammy is refusing to help’
‘Perilous’
‘Cut off from communication & medical care’
‘Over 50dys of starvation’
‘Could die in jail without being convicted of any crime’

Stop this now.

Great interview with Tareq Baconi on Hamas, Oct 7 and Israel's genocidal response:

"The West hasn't been able to contend with its own history of colonialism, with its own history of antisemitism, with its own history of white supremacy – and instead exported these questions."

[Craig Mokhiber @CraigMokhiber]

Today, the UN Independent Commission of Inquiry issued its detailed report of findings concluding that the Israeli regime has committed and is continuing to commit genocide in Palestine. There has never been a clearer case of genocide, and never a more complete global consensus on that finding. And yet, the world refuses to act. If the UNGA does not take action now, under Uniting for peace, to deploy a protection force & sanction Israel, it will fade into irrelevance. What are you waiting for?

A passenger on a train in Australia captured the most beautiful thing on their mobile phone. I doubt you'll see this on mainstream media. Much respect Australia ✌️

Even the Guardian is covering it now

The dam has burst

We have all the receipts

This is direct participation in genocide. For 20 months - and counting

It is simply remarkable how much the recent pivots to condemning Israel are premised on fabricating a recent watershed, on summoning a new history of events. Hind Rajab was killed a year and a half ago. The ICJ case was filed in 2023.

[Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt @FranceskAlbs]

It is unbelievable how nonchalantly leaders like @kajakallas and @vonderleyen continue to ignore (and stand against) intl law and the decisions of the highest intl Courts re Israel: among others, I shall remind them, the ICJ ordered Israel to:
- withdraw its troops and remove settlers from the WHOLE OF THE OPT by September 17, 2025 and meahwile
- other states not to recognise, aid and assist Israel in its wrongdoings.
No one can ask Israel to ensure anything other than LEAVING and then responding to justice. It is that simple.

Instead, @kajakallas and @vonderleyen's persistence denote knowledge, intent and purpose, which shall be missed by the relevant authorities when assessing their failure to prevent and stop genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity, and bring to an end the underlying unlawful occupation.

[Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt @FranceskAlbs]

Negotiating with Israel on how to manage what remains of Gaza and West Bank, in Brussels, NY or elsewhere, is an utter dishonor international law.

"Each state must immediately review and suspend all ties with Israel. Their military, strategic, political, diplomatic, economic,  relations - both imports and exports -  and to make sure that their private sector, insurers, banks, pension funds, universities and other goods and services providers in the supply chains do the same."

"Treating the occupation as business as usual translates into supporting or providing aid or assistance to the unlawful presence of Israel in the OPT. These ties must be terminated as a matter of urgency. ..I mean cutting ties with Israel as a whole: Cutting ties only with the “components” of it in the oPt is not an option."

"This is what concrete measures mean."

[Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt @FranceskAlbs]

The Israeli Army is now targeting starving children in the head and testicles in Gaza, while terrorising others, together with violent lunatics, in the West Bank.

These past 650 days, Israel has written one of the darkest pages of human history.

And it is absolutely sickening that the EU leadership rewarded this country with more economic partnership instead of putting an end to the genocide.

[Linda Mamoun @mamoun_linda]

Two million people trapped on a tiny strip of land are being starved to death by Israel. Children are dying while Israel blocks aid. But if you look at the news, you won’t see a single headline about it.

Where is the media?
Why isn’t this the biggest story on the planet?

[Gaza Notifications @gazanotice]

🚨 SHOCKING REPORT: Israeli soldiers in Gaza are reportedly turning the targeting of Palestinian children into a horrifying and systematic “human-hunting game,” according to British surgeon Dr. Nick Maynard.
He testified: “These children are being targeted almost as if it’s a game… One day they’re all shot in the head, the next day in the neck, and another day in the testicles… There is a clear and deliberate pattern to the injuries.”

[Muhammad Shehada @muhammadshehad2]

Name any other country on the face of the earth that gets to launch daily unprovoked assaults on its sovereign neighbours with the clear goal of turning them into failed states; gets away with it each time without a single Western gov condemning this aggression!

Insane world!

[Craig Mokhiber @CraigMokhiber]

The #HagueGroup of states has concluded its emergency meeting in Bogota, announcing the commitment of all members to a military and fuel embargo on the Israeli regime, blocking of complicit shipping, cancellation & prohibition of support to Israel by all institutions, and prosecution of Israeli perpetrators. An important step. Much more to be done to end Israeli genocide, apartheid, and settler-colonialism and to free Palestine. The struggle continues.
