"People with unsound views are able to get operatives fired and render them unhirable. They’re able to shut down discussions on listservs meant for tactical discussions. And most of all, they create an environment where lots of people feel they need to watch their words very carefully."

The war on information and speech is intense, and it comes from both the right and the left.


You mean, people are held to account for their words and actions by their employer?


We agree that doxxing these students so their future employers can hold them accountable is the right move.

Best article I've seen on the protests (Friedman). Well worth reading the whole thing.

What Palestinians and Israelis need most now are not performative gestures of disinvestment but real gestures of impactful investment, not the threat of a deeper war in Rafah but a way to build more partners for peace. Invest in groups that promote Arab-Jewish understanding, like the Abraham Initiatives or the New Israel Fund. Invest in management skills capacity-building for Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza, like the wonderful Education for Employment network or Anera, that will help a new generation to take over the Palestinian Authority and build strong, noncorrupt institutions to run a Palestinian state.

This is not a time for exclusionary thinking. It is a time for complexity thinking and pragmatic thinking: How do we get to two nation-states for two indigenous people? If you want to make a difference and not just make a point, stand for that, work for that.

Israel has no interest in peaceful coexistence and the majority of the population of Israel is not indigenous.

Your second part is wrong. And even if it were correct, it is meaningless because it pretends away the reason for the establishment of the state of Israel.

“Hate crime”?? How utterly ridiculous. Meanwhile, these masked fools are shouting for jihad and “from the river to the sea.” So they can dish out the hate, but then cry foul when it’s handed back to them on a silver platter. Boo hoo, what complete nonsense. Also, her sunglasses are beyond ridiculous.


Turns out that one of them, the one who told the Muslim woman "You disrespect my sense of humanity, b----", is a professor at ASU and has since been placed on leave.

Ironically, he gave an interview at the rally in which he decried what he described as "Jewish students' being intimidated."

"It was important to come out and make a statement for the community," he said.

Conflating criticism of and protests against the policies and actions of the State of Israel with anti-semitism and labeling such criticisms and protests as “anti-semitic” needs to be criminalized without Congressional exemption.

The rampant distortion of the word has warped any sense of relevance at this point.
