The Palestinian Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel (PACBI) commends the American Association of University Professors (AAUP) for dropping its biased, unethical policy opposing academic boycotts, which was primarily aimed at shielding Israeli universities from accountability for their egregious human rights violations.

PACBI salutes all those who worked tirelessly to push the #AAUP to change its position, as well as the conscientious academics, students, and progressive academic associations that have for years advocated for ending #US academic institutional complicity with Israel’s 76-year-old regime of settler-colonialism and #apartheid and, in the process, challenging AAUP’s hypocrisy. Without their persistent protests and intellectual challenges, without the student-led encampments reenergizing campus campaigns for academic #boycott and divestment in response to #Israel’s #Gaza #genocide, the AAUP would not have reversed its ethically and logically untenable policy.

All one needs is snappy come-backs. I'm sure she can handle that.

Why Donald Trump Debating Kamala Harris Could Be a Disaster - Newsweekhttps://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-debating-kamala-harris-potential-disaster-1936911

Trying to debate with Donald Trump is pointless. It is like wrestling with a pig. All you get is a lot of squeaking, and you get dirty while doing so... Pointless...

The 4 Words That Will Decide The #Presidency In 2024: #Election Protection, #Grassroots #Organizing
by Harvey Wasserman #uspolitics

..."In 2020, our national election was saved by hand-marked, hand-counted, digitally scanned paper ballots… by a fierce nationwide battle to save voter registration rolls… and by a massive grassroots organizing campaign that inspired citizens to vote in record numbers, with those votes reliably protected once cast. Amidst the Covid Pandemic, that movement ultimately rode an unprecedented wave of tens of millions of paper ballots that were mailed out and mailed back in through the US Postal Service.
...
The Bannon plan is to fill those precincts with Trump operatives trained to drive away and de-register anti-Trump votersand deny them ballots. That also means terrorizing election boards and precinct staff, guaranteeing that countless ballots that do get through remain uncounted.

Thus the battle over local election boards and precinct staffing determine this election’s outcome.

Many thousands of young people are now volunteering to work this election. Hopefully they’ll work the polls while protecting the voter rolls and guaranteeing the precincts will deliver the ballots that a rightfully authorized and accurately count them once cast.
...
to win them, the unavoidable imperative is to focus campaign dollars not on diffuse media buys, but on“relational” campaigns based on door-knocking, street canvassing, democracy centers, and what organizer Ray McClendon calls “target messaging from targeted messengers” who work the neighborhoods where they live. That means on-the-ground organizing led by local activists advocating for ocal issues with tangible impacts on local voters.
...
Whether you like it or not, democracy means you ARE involved. So...

"Approximately Perfect"

There's a palpable feeling of hope and joy with the increasingly clear swing of the pendulum towards sanity & ‘normalcy’.
I think this cartoon by Dave Granlund captures what could be a tipping point, a return of hope.

As our awesome Grandpa Joe is taking a much-deserved and timely bow, and confidently passing on the keys to the Corvette.

Smile! Surf’s Up! 🎶

We are watching history repeat itself in the most bizarre way. Right in front of our eyes.

Sadly the brave act of those who stand on the right side of history is a lonely and dangerous and feels hopeless.

History will not be kind to those who applauded and cheered for the wanted war criminal while a lonely woman stood up to the gang of sold out criminals and showed what true courage books like.

We will remember this for many years to come and no one will remember the names of the cheer leaders of the war criminal mass murderer of Israel.

“While much of the media is focused on the drama of the US presidential election, we must not lose sight of what is happening in Gaza, where an unprecedented humanitarian crisis continues to get even worse.”

“Yet, in the midst of this horror and violations of international law, the United States continues to send billions of dollars and thousands of bombs and other weapons to support this war. We, as Americans, are complicit.”

Imagine sitting there alone, like that listening to the most despicable criminal in our time , surrounded by a group of sold out criminals cheering and praising that wanted war criminal.

This should go to history of the most shameful moment of US modern political history.

55 standing ovation for man hated by most of his own people is just the proof these people are not really representatives of US interes nor interested in Israeli people at all.

It's just sickening to to watch her lonely protest.

Americana be proud

These are Your representatives.

This POS is hated at home but getting unimaginable support amomg disgusting war criminal loving American politicians.

Can't imagine reaction to him trying to lie for one hour at Knesset, but in US he is worshipped by his subjects. Only one woman carried a sadly tiny sign exposing him for war criminal, something that he is.

This should make Americans proud.

There is a massive propaganda push to portray Harris as a strong opponent to Gaza war and Netanyahu.

It's just unbelievable how ridiculous some PEFPs are and how they desperately trying to make her look like a friend of Arabs, which is the same kind of Friendship ThatPOS Kushner had with Saudi Arabia and UAE

Don't be fooled by these cheap propaganda push.

She is a disgusting pro Israeli politician, much more than Biden himself.

But of course, she is a woman, she is not "white" and she is not Trump. So she must be good.
