🔻Almost a year ago I signed a settlement agreement to leave Radboud University in the Netherlands, following ten months in which they harassed me in relation to my speech against the genocide of the Palestinian people. I said I would donate the settlement to causes that further Palestinian liberation. I have now received the money and done so, and want to share the causes in the hope that others donate as well. I gave over half to both The Sameer Project in Gaza (thesameerproject.org/), and Tanseqeye Shaabeye (The Popular Committee) in Lebanon (instagram.com/tanseqeye_shaa…), two on the ground initiatives, run by Palestinians and Lebanese people who refuse to disconnect providing material relief to displaced families from the political project of liberation from Zionism. I donated part to @MomodouTaal and @tjAmandla two wonderful black scholars who are being punished by Cornell University for escaping the US to prevent being kidnapped by ICE over their Palestine activism (chuffed.org/project/200834-s…). Finally, I donated part to activist communities in the Netherlands that are working hard to end Dutch complicity in the Zionist project. I'd like to thank Radboud University for funding these important initiatives. I hope Radboud and all universities do so, so much more to end their complicity with Zionism.
Announcement: following months of attempted repression of speech in relation to Palestine, I have agreed a settlement to leave Radboud University, and will take up a position at a new institution. See my full statement here.

The Trump regime welcomed an illegal immigrant who flew into the US on a jet owned by an imprisoned drug trafficker, but are holding captive US citizens and refugees and asylum seekers in ICE concentration camps, and bombing fishermen on claims of fighting "narcoterroism"
Brazilian Senator Flavio Bolsonaro arrived in Miami, Reuters images showed. Bolsonaro lost Sunday's presidential election to incumbent Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva and did not comply with a Supreme Court order to turn in his passports to federal police reut.rs/4A3iFQ6

The situation my family and I are living in in Gaza is catastrophic, so catastrophic that words fail to describe it. When a tent is all you have, and survival is your only goal, you start to hope someone will hear you. Our lives have changed beyond words, from our humble home to a makeshift tent in the mud. We face the harsh winter cold, living through days filled with fear and exhaustion, not knowing what tomorrow holds. Since our arrival, our tent has deteriorated and torn to pieces. Today, a large family, including several young children, lives in half a tent that no longer offers us any protection. We can't bear this cold in our dilapidated tent, and we don't have enough to protect our children from the harsh winter. My mother has a heart condition. All we want is a simple shelter where we can sleep safely, away from the rain and cold. We need to raise $800 to replace the plastic sheeting and reinforce the frame with wood to protect us before the rains intensify. This amount may seem small to some, but for us, it means a roof over our children's heads to protect them from the winter cold. Please help my family in Gaza and be a reason for us to have some safety amidst all this pain. 🙏🥹 chuffed.org/project/209636-p…

💔 SEVEN DAYS WITHOUT A SINGLE DONATION. HOW MUCH LONGER CAN MY FAMILY ENDURE THIS SILENCE? For an entire week, not a single donation has reached my family in northern Gaza. Behind every passing day is the same painful question: how can I provide food and basic necessities for the people I love when help never comes?😭😭😭 I am exhausted from carrying this fear every day. My family needs food, and my sick mother-in-law needs her medicine. These are not luxuries; they are basic needs we are struggling to meet. Please, help my family's story reach people who can make a difference. If you cannot donate, please quote and repost this post. Please don't let our voices disappear into silence. chuffed.org/project/184186

130 countries voted with their conscience. if only those votes translated into real action to remove the U.S genocidal blockade on Cuba.
NOW: World majority demands an end to the U.S. blockade on Cuba for the 34th time, in annual UN vote. Vote board:

UN resolution condemning the illegal US blockade on Cuba passes for the 34th year, in a vote of 130 to 17 with 25 abstentions, despite US threats of sanctions and visa restrictions for countries voting in support of Cuba. #AbajoElBloqueo

The CARICOM nations that abstained and Trinidad and Tobago voting against ending the U.S. blockade on Cuba. So disappointing..

Trump granting asylum to Flávio Bolsonaro just confirms that the United States is interfering in elections around the world to install political puppets. The United States is what liberals claim Russia is!

Is this the same IAEA who gave info to Israel that helped them murder Iranian Nuclear Scientists..? Does @rafaelgrossi have a problem with the 'restricted access' to Israeli Nuclear Sites..? Or does Israel get a free pass again..?
The head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Rafael Grossi, says there is no evidence Iran has rebuilt nuclear sites damaged by US-Israeli strikes, but warns restricted access prevents verification. 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.news/9ins3f

Ppl forget that English settler gangs also founded genocidal settler colonies like Canada, USA and Australia, Israel is not the only or first one.

Much of the western populace, particularly the UK has long supported colonial plunder, with their comfort depending on it
Replying to @mish_aderr
This is why the English are till this day some of the wealthiest people on the planet. The genocide of indigenous ppl means more looting and more profit for the UK.

Netanyahu is not an aberration within the entity. Western political figures desperately want to portray him as such to save what’s left of “Israel's” reputation and standing
Today, after confident predictions of victory for genocidal "liberal" Zionism, Netanyahu emerges as leader of the largest bloc, representing the true, honest, full face of genocidal Zionism that doesn't hide. "Liberal" illusions that this genocidal settler society is waiting to have its "democracy" "saved" are shattered. @SenSanders, @Ed_Miliband and other apologists for this evil regime will have to learn that that the problem is not Netanyahu but the very entity he leads, built on mass murder and mass destruction of Palestine's people.

I love how this makes and holds space for Palestinian voices instead of the usual (imperial/White) Saviour positioning that too many - iykyk - deploy. Across the world, anticolonial kinship means/requires making and holding space for the colonised TO speak, NOT speaking FOR
Last night, Bisan Owda virtually opened for Macklemore's Free Palestine tour in Dublin, Ireland, before screening a piece she helped choreograph featuring Palestinian children singing in Gaza.

In other words, if elections are held in Venezuela — even on a US schedule — Venezuelans still wouldn’t elect to have right-wing governance, which is the US preference to continue its resource + wealth theft of the country:

Bolsonaro lost to Lula in Brazil, then fled to the US & got a visa. Same warm welcome for Cuban elites after 1959 & white South African farmers in 2025. Trump has made it explicit: the US is the refuge for racists worldwide & the global capital of white supremacy & the far right.

Marco Rubio is a genocidal war criminal whose only success & legacy will be of been to deprive millions of Cubans from access to fuel and medicine and all basic necessities
