In its 'Oct 7 Anniversary' message president of @OfficialUoM @Duncanivison makes no mention of the Hamas massacre of innocent civilians in Israel. Typical. It's a 'conflict in the Middle East'. Anything but mention Jewish victims or un-demonise Israel.

In Apr 2024 @OfficialUoM Hum. Faculty Committee discussed 'rising islamophobia since Oct 2023', 'ongoing genocide against Palestinians' & 'fear for staff and students organising events about the horrific genocide in Palestine' @centre_as @DavidHirsh.

With a diclaimer: I don't share @daverich1's view of Zionism as simply a national liberation movement nor do I have much time for the notion 'Jewish pride' as a remedy for antisemitism; but his analysis of antisemitism in the anti Israel movement post 7 Oct is spot on.

. describing me as treacherous, cunning, a threat to young people's wellbeing and as 'delusional, paranoid, a nightmare, holding vendettas, narcissistic'. @OfficialUoM coerced me into withdrawing a complaint, protecting his smear campaign of personal defamation 2/2.

In 2019 disinformation specialist @StephenHutchin6 used an arsenal of antisemitic blood libel tropes in his correspondence with @UoMSALC research director Maggie Gale and @QUBelfast's professor Janice Carruthers . 1/2.

Essential listening: @daverich1 on why antisemitism post 7 Oct is not a reaction to Israel's war in Gaza.

In 2014 the judiciary raised reservations about the role of @OfficialUoM HR manager Catherine Tann (Appleton) in the flawed procedure that led to the unfair dismissal of a senior professor who was critical of the way the university dealt with racism 1/2.

I'm proud of the fact that aged 19 I evaded military service in the Lebanon war and Occupied Territories by leaving the country, unable to return for another 6 years. I support the right to refuse army service. @centre_as @nicolelampert.
Ayana and Yuval have just refused to enlist in the Israeli army and are now being sent to military prison. There is only one clear answer to genocide:.Refuse to be murderers!

What cheap demagoguery so unbecoming someone who boldly and resiliently stood up against antisemitism in the past 2 years but seems to regard the Israel-Palestine confict as a point scoring, arm wrestling playing field, with no vision for the future or courage to make change.
I still canโt believe that my government just rewarded the terrorists who committed the biggest single massacre of Jews since the Holocaust.
