1/ Good morning class. Today Australian universities adopted a policy that effectively outlaws criticism of Zionism. In today's class, and I do hope our Vice Chancellor's are listening and reading carefully, you will be introduced to Edward Said's 'Zionism from the Standpoint of its Victims'.
2/ Edward Said sets the scene here on why Zionism, like any ideology, should be available as an object of critique. Though it is an idea and firmly held identity for many modern Jews, it is, in its modern manifestation, a product of European colonialism and the invention of the modern nation state system. Zionism as a political ideology requires the erasure of the firmly held identity, history, and belonging to place of the Palestinian people. He argues that discussion of Zionism needs to take account of the experience and material consequences of that ideology for the Palestinians.Image
3/ "To the Palestinian, for whom Zionism was somebody else's idea imported into Palestine and for which in a very concrete way he or she was made to pay and suffer, these forgotten things about Zionism are the very things that are centrally important."

1/ Media representation & the Middle East, a 🧵 ABC Radio National pre-recorded interviews with 3 academics for a piece on Hezbollah this afternoon. Two white men, and a Lebanese-Australian academic woman with significant specialist expertise on the topic. Guess which one didn't make it to air? They actually went to air with two white blokes, an ME specialist, and an IR generalist. Shame on you. Do you want to talk about 'social cohesion'? Start here.
2/ If you are a white bloke academic talking head in the IR space, insist that if they interview you they must also interview (and air) a person from that country, or background. Better still, say, 'thanks, I'd love to, but you should really speak to 'X' first.
3/ If the interviewer and/or producer don't like their take on the issue, remember it is not your job to police political analysis. Your job is to present and question the views of experts, and if analyses differ, then present these for the audience to consider. If you need something else from the interviewee, go back to them and ask them to cover whatever it is.

1/ ABC ran three stories related to Palestine this evening. One on the vandalisation of the MPs office, one on the Palestine protesters at the Jerry Seinfeld show. And a feature interview on 7:30 report about the Israeli released hostages.
2/ The story on the Seinfeld show muted the audio of what the protestor was saying which would have contextualised the protest. There is footage of his words all over social media. But they kept in the audio for Seinfeld's response.
3/ Not once did ABC News or 7:30 report mention what the protests were about, or report news from Gaza from the last two days. Which includes - children having their heads blown off, another tent massacre in a supposed safe zone, another UN commission report that Israel has committed war crimes.

1/This is one of the messages in the WhatsApp group. I think power is an important dimension to the discussion of what to leak and what not to leak. I see here the group "Lawyers for Israel" - a group of 250+ lawyers with 6 teams - one of which is Campus Watch. Image
2/ I also saw on that list many of my colleagues names - none of whom is an anti-Semite. The list of names clearly shows a targeting of my Arab colleagues, my Indigenous colleagues, and my non-Zionist Jewish colleagues. I find this deeply disturbing and deeply racist.
3/ @anthroprofhage : "Believing in a multi-religious society and critiquing those who work against it is not antisemitism. I will not accept to be put in a defensive position where I have to justify myself for holding and working for such ideals."

1/ We are hearing more and more about censorship of professionals such as doctors, academics and journalists who speak up on Palestine. We don't hear about the 'little people' who are also losing jobs and livelihoods because of Zionist pushback. So here is a thread you can add to
2/ Two examples from this week. Case 1 a mens' hairdresser who cut my son's hair on Friday. The hairdresser told me (noticing my Free Palestine dove avatar) that he has supported Palestine for years. He previously owned a salon in wealthy Double Bay -Sydney's Eastern Suburbs ...
3/ During the 2014 war on Gaza he talked to clients and friends to raise awareness on Palestine. Zionists got wind and instigated a smear campaign. He lost so many clients that he had to close his business. Now he has to work for someone else on other side of town.

1/ Non political / non-academic friends - you need to know what is happening in the Australian media right now.
You may not be aware that the South African case arguing Israel's actions in Gaza amount to Genocide began in the International Court of Justice on Thursday. 🧵
2/ Thousands of experts and observers around the world tuned into the livestream to listen to the South African case on Thursday setting out piece by piece over 3 hours the claim that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza.
3/ Some international media reported it. Guardian did OK.
