“A kind request: In order to express our independence, we kindly ask you to leave party and national flags at home. We are aware that Palestinian national symbols and flags are constantly being stigmatized in #Germany. We comdemn the blanket criminalization of such flags and symbols. That’s why we express our wish as a kind request and not as a ban. We stand up for the right of all people and groups to express their identity – whether religious, ethnic or political. But at this rally we want to place the focus on the universality of the human rights of all those affected by the war and the violence.”

A Curricular Clash at MIT: How a course on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict rattled a department.
(The Chronicle of Higher Education, 2024-10-15)

Beyond paywall but yet suggestive.

“… Michel DeGraff submitted a request to teach a course about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

“In the 10 months since then, the professor of linguistics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology has been locked in a near-constant feud with his department head and colleagues...”

“DeGraff’s colleagues argue that the course — which would analyze the language used in conversations surrounding the Israeli-Palestinian conflict — doesn’t align with the department’s curriculum and that DeGraff lacks the necessary expertise to teach it. DeGraff believes the rejection is actually rooted in his pro-Palestinian advocacy on campus and social media…”

Israeli Court Orders Government to Explain System for Medical Evacuations From Gaza: Three Israeli human rights groups filed a petition after the closure of the Rafah border crossing between Gaza and Egypt, slowing the evacuation of patients.

“The order stems from a petition filed by three Israeli human rights groups in early June, following the closure of the Rafah border crossing between Gaza and Egypt after the Israeli military began assaulting the area in May.”

signed, as of 15.10.24, by 1250 individuals and 41 organisations.

“Daniel Shuminov was suspended from his duties as a guide and audience coordinator at the Historical Museum of Frankfurt without explanation due to his role as a spokesperson for the Palestine Camp “Hind’s Garden” at Goethe University Frankfurt. The protest camp “Hind’s Garden,” which took place from May 20 to May 26, 2024, was organized in response to the ongoing escalation in the Gaza Strip, where tens of thousands of people have been killed or wounded. The camp highlighted the deliberate destruction of all educational institutions in Gaza and the systematic oppression of the Palestinian population—a space for discourse that educational institutions in #Frankfurt had not adequately allowed…”

Germany will send more weapons to Israel soon, Scholz says
(Reuters, 2024-10-10)

"'We have not decided not to supply weapons. We have supplied weapons and we will supply weapons,' Scholz told parliament at an event to commemorate the victims of the Oct. 7 Hamas attack, countering an accusation from opposition leader Friedrich Merz*."

"Commenting on the fall in exports, the German government has said there is no arms export boycott on Israel, and export permits are issued case-by-case after careful review, taking into account international law, foreign policy and security considerations."

Inside Western media’s reporting on Gaza | The Listening Post

Over the past year, for the Palestinians of Gaza, "[genocide] again" has become reality - mass casualties broadcast almost in real time by its victims.

This film is about an alternative version of that reality - the one told by major Western news organisations - and how it has provided cover for Israel's war on Gaza.

Based on interviews with more than a dozen insiders, it lifts the curtain on the inner workings of agenda-setting outlets like CNN, the BBC and The New York Times.

Two injured in Jordan by shrapnel during Iran's attack on Israel
(Middle East Eye, 2024-10-01)

"Missile interceptions were reported over Jordan's skies during the attack.

"The interior ministry said shrapnel fell in the capital Amman, and the cities of Balqa, Zarqa, Madaba, and Karak."

I've been wondering what happens to the rest of "succesfully" intercepted missiles... 🤔
