Listen, i know all of you cool kids want to believe there is a genocide, but someone gotta tell you the truth - that is a really fucked up kink you have and you gotta do something with that
Yeah it was open for students but once he told her she is not welcome there anymore she is trespassing.
I dont know about berkelry policies, but the only thing i saw that the dean said about the war is that israel doesnt commit genocide (which doesnt mean he is against the war)
So ok, i agree it may not be only because he is jewish but those students put up pretty antisemitic posters a week before the dinner
But i dont think him saying it's not a genocide, or inviting zionists to speak (he believes in free speech, this is why he also let them put up those posters) means it isnt because he is jewish, the poster is pretty telling. Also as i said, fisk (the woman) said she agrees with them on palestine (yes, zionists can think that and still be zionists, if she is even a zionist) but yet they decided to do anything they can to get them fired (you can check this group's instagram, i dont remember the name but it's probably something with palestine and berkeley).
A Berkeley Law professor assaulted a law student as she was speaking up about UC Berkeley’s ties to Israel’s genocide in Gaza at a dinner on the final night of Ramadan. The institution has over $2 million invested in weapons companies that supply Israel.
Yet another good point. But far too many people are dying for the sake of “we’re looking for hamas” - Gaza is one of the most densely populated areas in the world, there are so many lives in danger.
Ok so what do you suggest?
Im not saying that there is a magic solution, but that is the thing, this is so complicated, how can you except any good outcome from this horrible mess
Palestinians want to. But somehow their the ones still being killed. And it’s israel dropping the bombs. Hamas is not innocent but it’s not like their the only ones responsible.
You are totally right.
But does it mean israel should stop, knowing hamas said they will do it again, meaning in a few years there will be another war, more dead palestinians & israelis, then another ceasefire, then again the same story.
So what should israel do? Just accept it? Letting hamas win, meaning letting them know using human shields works?
Gaza’s health ministry says 30,000 Palestinians have died. Is that not enough for you? How vile.
You mean the one hamas runs? That said 10,000 of them have "incomplete data meaning there is a good chance those people never existed? And those numbers also includes hamas fighters and of course we all know how quickly hamas knows how many died and who but can't find hostages or know which ones are alive even after 6 months 🤔
But that is not the point. Palestinians deserve to live. This is why hamas should surrender instead of sacrficing them.
You failed to mention this dinner was not related in any way to ramadan or gaza, and it took place in the *private* home of this professor, and she was asked to leave but kept going.
This is not assault, this is removing a trespasser.
You also didnt mention the professor is jewish and said to the protester she agrees with her about palestine. She did it only because they are jewish.

So a while back, a fairly left-wing friend of mine was shocked at the thought of Left-Wing Holocaust Denial, asking how it could even be possible, how can the Left even deny the Holocaust given everything (quote: “why would the LEFT be in denial? After you read Elie Wiesel, you can’t deny any of it. Same with Maus, Frieda Appleman-Jurman’s memoirs, and all that. Also, Lois Lowry won a Newberry medal for Number the Stars”). So I’ve been chewing on this for a while now.
First, Right-Wing Holocaust Denial is straight up “denial that the Holocaust happened”–often with an undertone of “But we wish that it had and it was a great idea”. They deny the number of deaths, or excuse the Nazis, or say that the Jews had it coming, or say that it didn’t happen at all, that sort of thing. It’s a very blunt, straightforward form of denial.
Comparatively, Left-Wing Holocaust Denial takes a different, more sophisticated form that functions on multiple levels–with an undertone of its own along the lines of “the Jews are exaggerating to try to portray themselves as victims”–and to talk about this form of denial, I have to explain what the Holocaust was.
So this gets a bit long, because what is being denied is long, but I will ask you to bear with me.
But, TL:DR:
Right Wing Holocaust Denial denies the body count and the atrocities…
Left Wing Holocaust Denial denies everything that built up to it, the centuries of Othering and murders, and the aftereffects.
Israel relies on the narrative that Jews won’t be safe anywhere but Israel and the countries funding Israel just want somewhere to ship their Jews off to without looking anti semitic.
By narrative you mean our whole history in every part of the world?
Stop speaking for Jewish people, from a Jewish person.
And yet another ask from the same anon(?)
I know enough jews (from israel and abroad) to know im saying what many jewish people think
But maybe you are right and i shouldnt do that, but i cant just say nothing while people dehumanizing my sisters and brothers. You know why is that? Because i see jews as a nation, a group of people who protect eachother and fight with side by side.
Many antizionists jews only see themselves, they think because they are safe without israel we all can be safe. They think only because some israelis has non israeli passports, all of them has.
Antizionists jews are privileged jews who dont care for the safety of jews that werent and arent as lucky as them.
So keep attack zionists while we fight to protect ourselves, our loved ones and our land. We wont stop because we love and care for each other. Im sorry you can't feel that as well. Im sorry you are blind to our pain only because you grew up safe and privileged.
If you are making a claim, it is YOUR responsibility to prove it. Its not on others to disprove it, idiot.
As i said to your(?) other ask, i only claimed she either works with hamas or can't work freely because hamas
The proof is that hamas is killing anyone that doesnt do what they want or a threat to them, maybe you should read what hamas did to fatah when they came to power in gaza.
Anyway, you should really use critical thinking when you see anyone report anything, even if it makes hamas look bad, israel look good or your hero journalist as someone who work with terrorists
calling bisan a “spokeswoman for a terrorist group” while she is actively documenting the slaughter of her people by israel and the israeli occupation forces is insane. you are a wretched person.
Ok im taking it back, she isnt a spokeswoman, just a woman who is documenting only the things hamas wants her to document, or document things in a way hamas wants her to, and saying only things hamas wants her to say because if she dont they will kill her (and blame the idf).
And doesnt she work for unrwa? And we all know which people unrwa loves to hire.
So what should we call her? Cause it doesnt sound like a journalist to me.
