"Cambiar de opinión es probablemente una de las cosas más hermosas que la gente puede hacer." Paul Auster (1947-2024)
In which the president of the International Court of Justice explains that the International Court of Justice did not decide, at all, ever, in any sense, that the claim that Israel is committing genocide is plausible. Those who continue to claim otherwise are lying to your face.
Everyone needs to take 5 deep breaths and process the absolute goddamn insanity of SENDING THE NATIONAL GUARD ONTO COLLEGE CAMPUSES. And I don’t care if you agree with the protesters or not, you need to recognize that this is sets precedent that will haunt us all if Trump wins.

Now that the Republicans are great champions of The Jewish People and our plight, surely they will now champion abortion, since Jewish law establishes it as our right.
Smarter people than me will write about how we got here, but one thing that’s striking about the university protests is the absence of an actual peace movement. There are pro-Israel and pro-Palestine groups, but what you don’t see is a broad movement for a full ceasefire, more…

Seeing so many writers - whose job + responsibility centers on language and its nuances - use the word “genocide” not as a means of clarity for what’s happening in Gaza but to prove they belong to an ideological club has been a very small thing in all this. But it does depress.
Maybe in some sense we all *did* go back to Poland.
This is such an important thing to openly discuss - bc we are all ultimately impoverished by a system where only affluent folks can afford to write books (or do journalism, make documentaries, or make art, etc).

There is no ethical justification for eating factory-farmed animals. 30 seconds of your pleasure is never worth a lifetime of torture. Pigs are as smart as toddlers &have best friends (!); cows mourn their dead. If you wouldn't do it to your dog or cat, don't do it to 🐮🐷🐔.

I can only assume that everyone who had a meltdown because Guernica supposedly published “apologia for genocide” will be outraged by that Verso essay, which is proudly and explicitly apologia for genocide. Right? Or was the Guernica outrage…over something else entirely? 🤔

Hello Muddah, Hello Fadduh (A Letter from Campus)
Fascists suppress protests. But fascists often came to power through the use of protests and demonstrations themselves. The real ? is, are you willing to tolerate the other view or are you trying to stamp it out. The campus protestors are in the latter category. Like fascists.
A Gazan calls out US protesters for losing the plot.
Editor at Current Affairs claiming actions like setting fire to a police station are not violence. Just in case you're wondering how we became so detached from reality people think Hamas are the good guys.
"Destroying property is not a peaceful protest." This is wrong. Is a building demolition "violent"? Is cutting down a tree? Dismantling an air conditioner? All kinds of contradictions follow when you call property damage "violence" currentaffairs.org/2020/06/why-pr…
I can’t believe this needs to be explained again, but they were breaking the exact laws they thought were unjust. If “civil disobedience” just means “breaking unrelated laws to get attention” then it’s exactly as stupid as it sounds.
Just an FYI for people referencing the Civil Rights Movement as the ideal and legal means of protesting, students sitting in at lunch counters, in movie theaters, in bus terminals and marching in public parks were violating laws and ordinances and agents of the state were also…
I am so damn grateful Joe Biden is president right now. I can't begin to imagine how much worse this entire situation would be if Trump were in office. Thank god we have an experienced leader who understands how necessary it is to reject extremes and focus on the big picture.
A very common form of pro-War argumentation--designed to disarm or persuade liberals--was that Hussain was a Monster. That he had gassed the Kurds. Did we argue these things were false? No. We argued, instead, that the true facts did not justify a violation of Iraq's Sovereignty.
Not to be an old fart, but one of the things that we had to do in 2003 was to learn how to cogently oppose Bush's Iraq War while also acknowledging that Saddam Hussein was a bad person who did bad things to civilians. We didn't lie about Hussain. We still opposed the war.
Perhaps think about what might happen to other people’s rights? Including Palestinians.
I'm just gonna say it. I think it's important enough that we send a message that we will not support genocide even if it does result in the worst possible election outcome. it's worth burning it all down. it's worth what will happen to my own rights
Elders of Zion meeting #5784: guys i think they're onto us. we should probably change our name
Yesterday, a US representative tweeted out one of the most deadly antisemitic lies in world history. Barely anybody is talking about it. x.com/repmtg/status/…
Antisemitism is wrong, but I will not be voting for the Antisemitism Awareness Act of 2023 (H.R. 6090) today that could convict Christians of antisemitism for believing the Gospel that says Jesus was handed over to Herod to be crucified by the Jews. Read the bill text and…
Yes. Vox’s @zackbeauchamp has written a must-read piece here on why America’s Israel-Palestine is broken, w/ expert comment from @Ibishblog. “The most reasonable people on each side — [who] recognize that neither Israelis or Palestinians are going anywhere — are sidelined.”
Indeed. The counterproductive irredentism of the pro-Palestine movement is also a result of right-wing Israelis and feckless US moderates completely undermining a viable path to a two state solution vox.com/politics/2024/…
This is the top headline on the NY Times home page right now, and all I can think is, "I don't care!" I literally don't care about "how they seized it..." There are so many more important stories in this world of eight billion people. But that's the media we have now.
Most grounded thing I've read about Israel-Palestine in a long time.
I was a pro-Israel activist in college in the late 2000s. My disillusionment with that world kicked off my long drift to the left on Israel-Palestine. The experience gave me an inside view on why Israel-Palestine debate is so toxic — and who's to blame vox.com/politics/2024/…
Can we have a moment where someone says the emperor has no clothes? How will such students actually practice law? I just don’t understand.
NEW: The student editors of the Columbia Law Review have issued a statement urging the law school to cancel exams in the wake of the police operation that cleared the university's encampment, saying the "violence" has left them "irrevocably shaken" and "unable to focus."🧵
