EMERGENCY: ISRAEL ATTACKS GSF 

Israel has attacked the Global Sumud Flotilla in international waters. People of conscience  have been abducted.

The flotilla broke no laws. What is illegal is Israel’s genocide, Israel’s illegal  blockade of Gaza, and the Israel’s use of starvation as a weapon.

Festival of Palestinian Culture in @MaynoothUni 7-10 April. Culminates with 'Gig for Gaza' on Thursday 10th raising funds for @sameerproject. Organised by @AfPMaynooth and @MaynoothBDS Details here: sites.google.com/view/maynoothp…

@brendancbrowne on the response to genocide in Gaza from academia. 'In the face of unfathomable Palestinian loss and suffering, academics who chose silence during a genocide must find their voice and embrace the academic boycott in pursuit of justice'. rundale.org/2025/01/30/out…

The January issue of Rundale is out with four new pieces covering: 🔹The Postgraduate Workers' Organisation 🔹The Irish Penal Abolition Network 🔹Limitations of cost rental housing 🔹The need to maintain pressure for a full academic boycott of Israeli institutions.

Academic freedom cannot be deployed to serve settler-colonial occupation, apartheid and genocide. @MaynoothUni

We cannot allow our universities to become vehicles for the normalisation of Israeli occupation and genocide. Excellent statement @MaynoothBDS and @AfPMaynooth.

Our joint statement with @MaynoothBDS - 14 months into Israeli genocide, on world human rights day, it is insulting that a seminar exploring the concept of "settler-indigeneity in the West Bank" was hosted in the Department of Anthropology, @MaynoothUni

As the British ambassador was pontificating from a pulpit in @MaynoothUni he was interrupted by students who read aloud the names of Palestinians massacred in the genocide. Students were immediately shut down and man-handled, before being silenced and kicked out by security.

Well done @MaynoothBDS for disrupting President's Distinguished Ambassador Lecture, given by British Ambassador to Ireland Paul Johnston, in protest at British government's participation in the ongoing Israeli genocide

This is completely unacceptable

Screening of new documentary “The Last Sky” followed by discussion w/ director Nicholas Hanna & producer Rihab Charida, October 29th, 6.30pm. Organised by colleagues in @AfPMaynooth & @AfPTrinity 🇵🇸🇮🇪
