As mass graves are unearthed and more children are killed in Gaza, US media focuses its attention on students protesting against it.

This is by design, intended to distract from the actual atrocities being committed by Israel and the billions of US dollars that make it possible.

There are no universities left in Gaza.

A pro-Israel organization offered payment to individuals who can blend into protests at Columbia University, specifically seeking those with keffiyehs and “Middle Eastern appearance” for more “deeper infiltration.”

Kids getting killed in Gaza gets less media attention than kids in America protesting the slaughter. How much propaganda does it take to convince people that students protesting a genocide are the villains instead of the adults committing one?

They never have updates or a real response because they want to push the news cycle to the next Israeli atrocity they have no update for and hope people forget. Ask about Israel blowing up a university months ago, mass graves at multiple hospitals, the attack on Iran’s embassy…

.Hümeyra Pamuk asked why it’s taking so long to say if Israel has committed war crimes and about US double standards.

Blinken: Do we have a double standard, the answer is NO… we apply the same standard to everyone

It took 3 weeks for US to say Russia is committing war crimes.

Shame they didn’t attend Columbia as this might have gotten some press coverage

More people are starting to see the gravity of this historic moment.

It’s not only that the US government is funding & arming crimes against humanity in Gaza—which is itself a profound moral failure—it’s also the willingness to destroy our own institutions to let Israel do it.

Massive faculty walkout at Columbia University opposing the university’s decision to call in NYPD on Palestine solidarity protests:

I'm a Jew-loving Jew. Anti-Semitism is never ok. Here's what is not anti-Semitism: Peaceful protest, criticism of the Israeli government, calling for an independent Palestine, demanding a ceasefire in Gaza, using the term apartheid to describe Israel, questioning Zionism.

Everybody knows mass graves means Israeli forces killed large numbers of Palestinians in cold blood then shoved their bodies into a ditch and pushed tons of dirt on top of the mass grave, right?

I mean, this headline really says it all.

'Netanyahu thanks U.S. for new military aid, vows to escalate in Gaza.'

'Gaza offers us a choice: will we move our world towards liberation and justice for all, or will we allow it to slip ever further into genocidal violence?'

Dehumanization of Palestinians is US officials sharing more outrage in the last 24 hours—over students protesting—than they have in 6+ months of daily horrors from Gaza, like pediatric amputees, families buried under rubble, mass graves, decomposing infants, bodies torn apart…

No one can because Israel destroyed every single university in Gaza in the last six months.

There is no other story - THIS is the story

On voting no this weekend on sending more offensive weaponry to Israel, Rep. Pramila Jayapal pointed to polling showing majority of Americans oppose current conduct of the war. “We are so far behind where the people of the United States are,” she told me. Unlike the infamous congressional
