"The #protesters carried a banner that said “It is right to rebel, #Hillel go to hell,” with an inverted red triangle on it, which has come to signify support for #Hamas on social media because the terror group uses the symbol in videos of its attacks. The student demonstrators repeatedly formed inverted triangles with their hands, flashing the symbol at the counter-protesters. Another protester brandished a banner that had a #swastika inside a Star of David while shouting: “#Synagogue of Satan.”
The pro- #Palestinian, anti- #Israel demonstrators chanted “From #CUNY to #Gaza, globalize the #intifada,” and “Hillel, Hillel, what do you say? How many kids did you kill today?”

Whenever I see young #protesters calling #Biden "#GenocideJoe" and threatening to not vote for him, and risking letting #TheOrangeMenace win a second term, and the #DNC Convention to be held in #Chicago, I can't help but see history repeating itself, where young anti-war protesters disrupted the '68 Convention in Chicago to cost #Democrats the election (arguably) and put "#TrickyDick" back in office (after being Ike's #VP for 8 years.) 😞
After weeks of demonstrations at #UBC#Okanagan, principal/deputy vice-chancellor of the institution, Lesley Cormack, responded to pro #Palestinian#protesters with a letter.
The #encampment, comprised of diverse students & members of community, has been stationed on the UBCO campus for the past 11 days. The protesters, who call themselves the #PeoplessUniversityForGaza#UBCO have a list of 5 key demands that they & students on #Vancouver’s campus, ask #UBC to address.
A helicopter carrying President #EbrahimRaisi of #Iran & his foreign minister crashed on Sunday in the country’s mountainous northwest, acc/to state media, deepening the turmoil that has gripped the nation on both the international & domestic fronts in recent months.
#Raisi, 63, was traveling from Iran’s border w/ Azerbaijan to inaugurate a joint dam project.
…#Raisi oversaw a sweeping & deadly crackdown on domestic #protesters, many of them #women & young people, who took to the streets against the country’s ruling clerics. #Rights groups said hundreds of protesters were killed by Iran’s security forces.
Raisi has been viewed as one of the front-runners to succeed #Khamenei as supreme leader. One of his main rivals for that role is #Khamene’s son.
Despite the crash, some analysts said they did not expect a major change in #Iran’s agenda abroad.
#KnowNothing#CardiB is too stupid to realize that NOT voting for #Biden is a vote FOR #Trump, and that her boycott of #Election2024 could be her last — She might not get another opportunity to vote EVER.
“Only years later did I realize that I was mistaken, and we missed an opportunity to have a president who might actually have made America great by championing racial justice, labor rights, and the war against poverty.
I hope that today’s campus #protesters don’t repeat our mistakes by abandoning #Biden, who already has a proven record of accomplishments in his first term”
The protesters were demanding the release of all hostages held in #Gaza, calling for new elections and also calling for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin #Netanyahu to resign.
“By a slim margin, #Dartmouth undergraduate #students have voted ‘no confidence’ in President Sian Leah Beilock’s leadership in the wake of a controversial crackdown on pro-[#Palestine] #protesters earlier this month, Dartmouth Student #Government announced on Wednesday.
States Dust Off Obscure Anti-Mask Laws to Target Pro-Palestine #Protesters
Arcane laws banning people from wearing #masks in public are now being used to target people who wear face coverings while peacefully #protesting Israel’s war in #Gaza. That’s a big problem. #Palestine#Israel l
