CEASEFIRE AS FULL GENOCIDAL MODE UNICEF also said that Israel is blocking medical supplies essential for children’s vaccinationin Gaza, including 1.6 million syringes and nearly one million baby formula bottles. Baby formula is labeled as “dual-use” item that could have military applications.

"The use of mobile data extraction to criminalize asylum seekers raises concerns about reinforcing harmful stereotypes and exposing legal protection gaps. It also reflects epistemic injustice by privileging digital data over personal testimonies".

Antifa are terrorists, Palestinians are terrorists, Baloch activists are terrorists... ah, the lack of imagination!

And yet another example of how UK universities weaponise the "Free speech Act” to silence anti-genocide staff and students. This is beyond shameful, but hardly surprising, as it's been the everyday praxis of the entire sector in the past two years:"Free speech" and "Neutrality".

"Du possible sinon j'étouffe" Lecturers and students must become the university again, pull the plug, pull the plug.

How easy is this? "We'd rather not". Another academia is not only possible, it is necessary. PULL THE PLUG

What's that the Italian navy shadowing the #GlobalSumudFlotilla is not about protection but is about using rescue as interception? It's the logic of Mare Nostrum all over again and I wish some people weren't so naïve to think militarism had anything to offer a politics of solidarity and justice.

📍 Genoa, Italy An emergency mobilization at the Genoa port's Ethiopian Gate chased the Israeli company ZIM's ship from the port before 10 containers of explosive materials headed to Israel could be loaded. #ForzaItalia #FreePalestine #DismantleIsrael

"No apology for how the imperial act of the 1917 Balfour Declaration denied Palestinian national self-determination and planted the seeds for 117 years of dispossession. Starmer’s letter reads like a “Balfour protected your religious and civil rights, now it’s your turn” letter." (Nicola Perugini)

Stepped out of my wheelhouse to work on this with my dear friend to analyse the violence unleashed on our students demanding justice for Palestinians and an end to genocide.

711 days of live streaming massacre later, the UN confirms. We reached the final act in Gaza City- once e v e r y t h i n g is lost and e v e r y o n e is dead we will all agree -perhaps even UK govt.-: it was (most probably) a case of genocide. Shame www-bbc-com.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/www.bbc....

Number of academic signatures (4000 in 4 days), gathered in peak holiday season asking simply for biometric deferrals shows level of determination, knowledge of UKVI and sheer bewilderment in sector. Why it is taking this and so so so so so smany forms will be a matter for history and The Hague.

The IPC has issued an alert for the "Worst-case scenario of Famine unfolding in the Gaza Strip." My friend in Gaza, a doctor, writes:"Now, the majority of ppl we attend to are victims of this man made starvation. The level of agony & loss due to starvation has increased dramatically since yesterday"

Harvard Educational Review cancelled a special issue on Palestine. www.theguardian.com/education/20...

As put by Spain’s MEP Irene Montero: “Israel is starving to death those it hasn’t already killed with bombs in Gaza.” “90% of the population is in phase 5 famine, and soon 400 people a day will die of hunger.” “This is extermination.” “And Europe is on its knees before Israel.”

Baloch activists, including Mahrang Baloch, Bebarg Zehri, Beebow Baloch, Shah Jee Sibghat Ullah, Ghaffar Qambarani and Gulzadi Baloch have been targeted for their activism and are being held in arbitrary detention

“My inescapable conclusion has become that Israel is committing genocide against the Palestinian people,” writes Omer Bartov, a professor of Holocaust and genocide studies at Brown University. “I have been teaching classes on genocide for a quarter of a century. I can recognize one when I see one.”

Lawyers file case against EU Commission and Council for 'failure to act' on Gaza genocide: “for failing to: suspend, for 21 month, the EU-Israel Association Agreement; propose any sanctions [...] take a public position on the risks of genocide and documented crimes”. euobserver.com/eu-and-the-w...

To live in the UK is to be gaslighted daily. We are told that the biggest threat to free speech is from trans rights activists on the day that Palestine Action will be banned and offences for up to 14 years imprisonment can be incurred for expressing support for them.

They protect a genocidal army from dangerous rappers, instead of protecting children- little surprise that they protect these little resentful miserable people www.theguardian.com/education/20...

Fuck you BBC. How dare you conflate the IDF with Jews. You antisemitic pieces of shit.

Dr Sabhia Baloch, a BYC leader, said: The continued detention of these leaders after 3 months is illegal and unconstitutional. She accused the government of using various tactics to prolong their imprisonment. Mahrang’s detention extended for another 15 days #Balochistan #ReleaseBYCleaders‬⁩

"One might fairly ask, Was the Enlightenment buried in the rubble of Gaza, or was the rubble the Enlightenment's logical conclusion?" (Joe Sacco, War on Gaza, 2024)

Sea surface temperatures in the Mediterranean Sea as visualised in a satellite image from 22 June 2025(Photo: European Union, Copernicus Sentinel-2 imagery) Dark red indicate temperatures more than 5°C above the seasonal average.

It's been 3 months. Mahrang Baloch and other BYC leaders remain in detention without legal justification. Her crime is advocating for justice and exposing enforced disappearances, extrajudicial killings and other human rights abuses in Balochistan, Pakistan. #ReleaseBYCLeaders

Was talking to my family this weekend about revolutionaries in Africa and it reminded me how much Patrice Lumumba is still mourned and missed. They spoke of him with a freshness as if the US and Belgium had murdered him just yesterday. A devastating loss. www.theguardian.com/global-devel...

THOSE WHO TAKE THE MEAT FROM THE TABLE Teach contentment. Those for whom the contribution is destined Demand sacrifice. Those who eat their fill speak to the hungry Of wonderful times to come. Those who lead the country into the abyss Call ruling too difficult For ordinary men.

Look at them, policy report to advance their pathetic careers and the recruitment of their unis, as they flush the brains of entire generations (and hence the future) down the toilet. The sheer fact that this shit is published is already a parody. www.hepi.ac.uk/wp-content/u...

Imagine the banality of a university where the only ratified areas of study are ‘complex analysis’ and ‘critical thinking’. Thinking about what? We have already seen what happens when we unleash a cadre of overrated, narrowly-educated adolescents whose only thought is of their own exceptionalism.
