Just another warning sign:
Counter-protests are becoming organizing grounds for the far right.
'Moderate' Democrats and Republicans are encouraging these thugs who will not let them breathe if and when they gain control.

Wait: are they inspired by Iran and Hamas or by communists? It can't be both.

So… we now have confirmation of an Israeli special ops vet running an infiltration operation into the UCLA encampment in coordination with the LA Sheriffs dept.

(And just to make it extremely embarrassing for everyone involved, a Dr Phil debrief immediately thereafter.)

Dear journalists: if you have any integrity at all you would do your jobs and hold Mayor Eric Adams accountable.

من الطبيعي ان يقوم الموقع المُمَوَّل من الحكومة الأميركيّة والحكومات الأوروبيّة وسوروس بنشر هذه التراتبية الباطلة من أجل الترويج للأجندة. تخيّلوا ان هذه الدول تتفوّق على لبنان في الحريّات. لبنان أكثر بلد حرّ في المنطقة (والمجرّة, يمكن)

Zionist hoodlums in NYC are publishing flyers claiming to be by Palestinian groups while using a language that is not used by any pro-Palestinian group in the US. Those attempts of sabotage, infiltration and terrorism were started last week when orders came to end the protests.

Pro-Palestinians vs “counterprotestors? No Israel.

“The videos showed counterprotesters attacking students in the pro-Palestinian encampment for several hours, including beating them with sticks, using chemical sprays and launching fireworks as weapons.” nytimes.com/interactive/20…

After the damage is done, the New York Times concludes that “counterprotestors” were responsible. Counter protesters? Why not call them pro-Israeli protesters?

“The violence had been instigated by dozens of people who are seen in videos counterprotesting” nytimes.com/interactive/20…

(ملاحظة: الخبر أعلاه من The Onion)

Is “more open to the world” a euphemism for being absolute despotic orders which are on good terms with the West and Israel?

The last time I saw this guy he told the camera he would take everyone’s question and then refused to take mine about the carnage they are inflicting on Gaza and attacks on protesters. Now he’s claiming to honor journalists who ask tough questions.

I have to say that pro-Israel protests in the Western world have been massive. They remind me of Nasser’s funeral. (Below: the million-person march for Israel in London).

'the IHRA definition and its accompanying examples conflate criticism of Israel and of Zionism with antisemitism in a way that threatens constitutionally protected freedoms of free speech and inquiry.'

كتاب 'منظومة الدعاية تحت حكم بن علي: الكتاب الأسود' موجود مجّاناً على الإنترنت. قارئ هنا لفتني إليه قبل يوميْن. مُذهل. وفيه أسماء من إعلاميّين وإعلاميّات في لبنان (من ١٤ و٨ آذار وطبعاً من التغييريّين والتغييريّات).

Forget about right and left, or Republican and Democrat, the Israeli lobby is launching a fierce assault on freedom of speech for all Americans. Where is the outrage? And all on behalf of a foreign country.

One of the consequences of the Israeli-US genocide in Gaza is that official US spokespeople have become, rightly, the laughing stock of the world.

تمارا رسامني .. طالبة بأمة .. لبنانية محل افتخارنا .. كل الفخر والاعتزاز به امثولة مقاومة الظلم .وحماية الانسان .احدثت الوعي في وجدان امة نائمة بمواقفها ووقفتها في جامعة كولومبيا دعما للشعب الفلسطيني المظلوم ورفضا للقتل اليومي الذي يمارسه الصهاينة والدعم الاميركي

I assume they’re just on autopilot but I wonder if anybody at a senior level within the Biden administration thinks that anybody believes this bullshit anymore.

Oh, this is touching. Israelis are sad because US college students are outraged over Israeli genocide. Why can’t college kids embrace Israeli genocide? Why?

أنا دائما أحذّركم من بطلان كل التراتبيّات التي تصدر في الغرب عن دولنا. كلّها مبنيّة لأسباب البروباغاندا. هل هناك شخص في العالم العربي عن جد يقبل أن قطر تتفوّق في حريّة التعبير على لبنان؟ لبنان نال مرتبة ١٤٠ وقطر مرتبة ٨٣. وقسْ على ذلك.
