“We are a group of students at the University of #Tokyo who have gathered in solidarity with Palestine to oppose the genocide by the Israeli government. We have started a Palestine Solidarity Encampment and formed an organization to manage its operation.”

The author, a theatremaker from Jerusalem, analyses and criticizes the German society for reacting to the war of Israel with "unprecedented restrictions" on protests and freedom of speech.

Pity, it's beyond paywall. I truly wish this kind of articles could be read broadly in #Germany.

This is simply insane ... literally! They continue to supply arms to Israel, which enables it to continue killing and starving Palestinians - then do this nonsense with a pier, rather than pressuring for existing entries to be opened. I question the sanity of the leadership of the US and UK.

Amnesty EU on X:

“We are very concerned that instead of facilitating and protecting the right to protest, authorities are cracking down on people taking part in a protest camp in front of the German Parliament, the Bundestag.”

“We urge German authorities to not only respect people’s right to protest & right to freedom of expression, but to facilitate & uphold the same.

“We have been observing shrinking spaces and the silencing of people speaking out in solidarity with Palestinian human rights.”

After 24 hours, Princeton sit-in for Gaza persists (Daily Princetonian, 2024-04-26)

"The sit-in in solidarity with Gaza on #Princeton's McCosh Courtyard has entered its second day. Student demonstrators remained on the courtyard undisturbed through Thursday night into Friday morning"

"As the sun rose over McCosh Hall on Thursday, protesters began to set up tents, in line with the tent encampments set up at Columbia and other universities across the country. The tents were taken down within just six minutes following a warning from PSAFE and the arrest of two graduate students, all within the first ten minutes of activity"

“Palestine Legal filed a civil rights complaint with the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights (OCR), demanding an investigation into Columbia University’s discriminatory treatment of Palestinian students and their allies,...”

“The complaint alleges how, for more than six months, Palestinian students, Arabs, Muslims, students perceived to be Palestinian, and students associated with or advocating for Palestinians, have been the target of extreme anti-Palestinian, anti-Arab, and Islamophobic harassment,…”

“Palestine Legal is representing four students and the student group Columbia Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP), who have all been the target of anti-Palestinian discrimination and harassment by fellow students, professors, and/or Columbia administrators.”

Middle East debate in #Germany: The bell of Gaza (Charlotte Wiedemann | Qantara.de, 2024-04-23)

"With its fossilised premise of «raison d'etat» Germany is damaging itself. It is time for change – for constructive partnership in a concerted effort to overcome the Israeli-Palestinian catastrophe"

"What has happened? Germany has allowed itself to go down the slippery slope of misunderstood exceptionalism: by narrowing down the consequences of its responsibility for the Holocaust and its corresponding exceptional obligations to an unquestioned commitment to the structure of the Israeli state and its politics. And by telling others what they should think about Israel..."

"The outcome is an oppressive mixture, a strangely boastful detachment from the world. ... And we reserve the right to offend, because as the ex-evil masterminds, we are the only true good guys."

Students at #MIT, #Emerson, #Tufts set up pro-Palestine encampments after #Columbia arrests (Boston.com, 2024-04-22)

"Pro-Palestinian students at several prominent Boston-area schools spent Sunday night in tents after more than 100 Columbia University students were arrested for participating in a similar demonstration last week.

"As of Monday night, dozens of protesters at MIT, Tufts University, and Emerson College are occupying outdoor spaces on or near campuses to demand the schools cut ties with Israeli companies and military and call for a ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war."

"MIT Jews for Ceasefire were represented at the tents, the group said on X. MIT reportedly moved the location of Seder for MIT students celebrating Passover from nearby Hillel to an undisclosed location, but Jews for Ceasefire is hosting a Seder at the encampment."

Statement on Columbia University’s discriminatory and repressive treatment of Jewish students (Jewish Voice for Peace, 2024-04-22)
———

“… in shutting down public protest and suspending students, the actions of the University of #Columbia are not ensuring safety for Jewish students — or any students — on campus.”

“Yesterday’s statement by the White House, like the administrators of Columbia University, dangerously and inaccurately presumes that all Jewish students support the Israeli government’s genocide of Palestinians. This assumption is actively harming Palestinian and Jewish students.

The administration has not only harassed Jewish students and failed to ensure their safety and well-being, it has also obstructed their religious observances during Shabbat and prevented them from accessing their Jewish community on the eve of Passover…”
