The Trump administration is launching an aggressive campaign to attack free speech. His first target? Universities where students have organized for Palestinian freedom. Trump is using Jewish safety and the specter of antisemitism as tools to silence calls for Palestinian liberation on campuses.Image
Last week, President Trump signed several Executive Orders that were supposedly issued to address antisemitism, but do nothing for Jewish safety and instead clearly target the Palestine movement. One order lays the groundwork for deporting international students who have spoken up for Palestine.
Now, the Trump administration is opening investigations into allegations of antisemitism at five universities: Columbia, Berkeley, Minnesota, Portland State, and Northwestern. Each of these schools witnessed powerful Palestine solidarity organizing from thousands of students, including hundreds of Jewish students, who called on their institutions to divest from genocide.

This is despicable, blatantly racist, and genocidal. For the past 15 months, the world has watched the Israeli military’s live-streamed genocide that these words uphold and defend.

It’s even more appalling that these declarations of genocidal intent come from a board member of the US Holocaust Memorial Council. Ensuring that Never Again means Never Again for Anyone requires calling out racism and bigotry whenever we see it, no matter where it comes from.
As Jews committed to collective liberation, we hold our communities accountable as we work to build a future where everyone is safe and everyone is free.
As anti-Zionist Jews, we stand against Zionism — the ideology that uses the strategy of genocide, ethnic cleansing, and apartheid to maintain a Jewish-only nation-state on Palestinian land. Opposing Zionism includes challenging it — and all forms of supremacy — wherever we see them.

All eyes on Jenin in the occupied West Bank, where the Israeli military is now deploying the same tactics it used in Gaza.

Yesterday, the Israeli military blew up a residential street in the Jenin refugee camp, leveling up to 20 homes in the ad-Damj neighbourhood in a massive series of explosions. Palestinian news agency Wafa reported that the blasts were so powerful they were heard across the city and in surrounding towns.🧵Image
In just 31 days, the Israeli military has killed over 70 Palestinians in the occupied West Bank, with the northern areas—Jenin, Tulkarem, and Tubas—bearing the brunt of the Israeli military’s deadly Operation Iron Wall. In the past week alone, the Israeli military killed 22 Palestinians, while Israeli settlers continue to escalate their takeover of Palestinian land through illegal settlement expansion and pogroms.
The majority of Jenin refugee camp’s 20,000 residents have been forcibly displaced from their homes by the Israeli military over the past two months. The Israeli government has besieged Jenin, cutting off food and electricity while unleashing relentless airstrikes, demolishing homes, intensifying its ethnic cleansing and mass arbitrary detentions.

Meanwhile, over the weekend in north Gaza, an Israeli airstrike targeted a civilian car traveling along the designated route for returning Palestinians. The number of casualties caused by the Israeli military’s attack remains unclear.

“Two days after No Other Land was nominated for an Oscar, settlers are invading my community, Masafer Yatta, burning and breaking homes.I'm honored for the [nomination] but we're being erased while Trump lifted US settler sanctions. Do people in Hollywood care? Please don't be silent,” said Palestinian journalist, activist, and filmmaker @basel_adra this week.Image
At the same time Basel’s film No Other Land was shortlisted for an Oscar, settlers from the illegal outpost Havat Maon launched pogroms throughout Masafer Yatta, the area featured in the film. In the 1980s, the Israeli military designated this area as Firing Zone 918, putting Palestinian residents at heightened risk of home demolition and forced displacement.
In Tuba this week, settlers destroyed two homes and burned a community member’s car. They also invaded agricultural lands in Sfai, Halawe, and neighboring villages, yet the Israeli military arrested the rightful landowners instead of those responsible. In Qawawis, three residents were similarly detained after enduring settler violence last week.

We are deeply appalled by the satellite image from Google Maps revealing a giant Star of David carved into the ground by Israeli tanks in Beit Hanoun, northern Gaza. This scene serves as a stark symbol of the horror and unflinching cruelty of the Israeli government's genocidal actions against Palestinians in Gaza—and its motivations.🧵Image
Next to the Star of David, the numbers 7979 appear—likely referencing the Israeli military’s Netzah Yehuda Battalion. This unit is implicated in numerous human rights violations since at least 2015, including the killing of unarmed Palestinians, and is notorious for its cruelty in the occupied West Bank.
We are appalled by the way the state of Israel has co-opted the Star of David, weaponizing it for conquest and colonial domination—to intimidate, oppress, and inflict trauma. This is not our Judaism; this is Zionism.

We are disgusted by Trump's reported plans to continue his violent crusade aimed at gutting freedom and democracy with an Executive Order today calling for the deportation of non-citizen anti-war activists, with a particular focus on students. 🧵
This is a vile attempt to sow fear and crush political dissent to the U.S.-backed Israeli genocide of Palestinians in Gaza, as well as to further the far-Right’s broader anti-immigrant agenda.
Should there be any attempt to enforce this authoritarian, unconstitutional, and violent executive order, we call on elected officials, university administrators, and all people of conscience to boldly reject these orders.
