I began writing this book in detention and finished it fighting a deportation order. I wrote it because testimony is one of the few things that can make injustice visible before it becomes inevitable. My hope is that anyone who reads it understands: Palestine is not the exception, it is the warning. The rights we are losing were never only ours to lose. Thank you @HenryHolt

#NoLandToStandOn is Mahmoud Khalil's revelatory and powerful testament of protest, courage, and imprisonment—and the story of a man confronting the reality that he had become target number one in a regime shredding basic rights. Learn more: us.macmillan.com/books/97812504…

One grocery store boycott won’t end the occupation, but remember, it was workers at Dunnes Stores in Ireland who refused to sell grapefruit from apartheid South Africa that sparked a campaign in 1984 that eventually convinced the Irish gov to join the boycott. Bit by bit.

Dan Goldman's fearmongering and weaponization of antisemitism couldn't kill the boycott. His constituents passed it 67-31. Funny that establishment Democrats can't read the room in their own district.
And yes, BDS is the floor when Israel is a genocidal apartheid state.

Imagine an adviser to Biden had said this about Jewish Americans on the day of a synagogue attack - or any day of the year!
Just imagine the response.

In light of the Islamic center shooting today, I think it’s time to make sure Muslims are safe. The best way to ensure their safety is for our DHS Secretary Markwayne Muslim @SenMullin to deport every Muslim in America back to the Middle East where they can live in fully Islamic societies and blast their call to prayer without triggering Amercians into psychosis as a side effect of having their non-Islamic habitats disrupted by invasive species. Let’s make sure Muslims are safe. Send them back to the Middle East where there’s a mosque on every corner.

"Even as Foxman took subtle digs at his ADL successor, Jonathan Greenblatt, for slow-walking criticisms of Trump and Elon Musk, his issue was never with the current CEO’s steadfast alignment of the ADL with Israel’s interests."

Abdul El-Sayed: “AIPAC and Israel are not the same as Judaism and the Jewish people. I love Judaism and I love the Jewish people. The single most dangerous thing they’ve tried to tell us is somehow they can extend the definition of antisemitism to include a foreign government and its leaders. I call bullshit”
