Some Reactions to Recent News

 

  • Seems pretty clear that the US Supreme Court isn't just conservative; it's a full-speed-ahead supporter of Trump's fascism.
  • Israel is bombing everything in sight in the Middle East. The US is fully behind all the aggression. Are gambling sites putting odds on the next country on which Israel will inflict an act of war?
  • One of the most laughable contradictions in the current ADL antisemitism-on-campus fabrication is that I haven't heard of a single Jewish professor fired for supporting the Israel-US genocide. There have been many profs fired--including not a few Jews--for expressing any pro-Palestinian sentiment.
  • Just so we don't think it's only the US: The UK Labour government is all in on Israel-US genocoide, arresting anti-genocide protesters and expressing solidarity with Hezog just today. Germany, too, is pretty much on board. They talk about recognizing the Palestiniam State but those are empty words if you're supporting genocide and starvation.
  • Bari Weiss's "The Feee Press" is also all-in. Labeling anything that moves antisemitic, and actually denying that starvation is occurring in Gaza. The Venn diagrams of Weiss's principles and Trump's have an overlap of about 90% (and not just on Palestine). The champion of the faux free-speech brigade. What a joke.
