Journalisterna Yanis Mhamdi (Blast) och Omar Faiad (Al Jazeera) var ombord på fartyget Madleen – samma som Greta Thunberg – när israelisk militär bordade det på internationellt vatten. Att gripa journalister så är olagligt. RSF fördömer gripandet. www.reportrarutangranser.se/rsf-fordomer...

It is with concern and distress we see what the US goverment is doing to quell the voices for justice, peace and liberation. All universities world wide should stand up for the protection of students' and staffs' integrity and fundamental freedom and rights.

Ett helt oproportionerligt stort antal poliser, ditkallade av universitetsledningen, står liksom med handen på sina vapen när de bevakar universitetsanställda och studenter som på ett fullständigt fredligt sätt protesterar mot ett pågående folkmord.

SUs fastighetsavdelning har fått direktiv från ledningen att kontinuerligt rensa universitetets alla anslagstavlor från politiskt innehåll associerat med Palestina, och forskare i ledningen har klippt banden med doktorander associerade med Academics for Palestine.
