Seeing how Mahmoud Khalil was detained is unreal. A guy wearing an Avengers shirt from an unnamed agency says “we have you,” they refuse to give their names and it seems he has no rights to be read while being arrested, all while his pregnant wife watches. https://t.co/fPJnbz4okW

I don't know much abt the ISA, but this seems to align with an assc that is belligerently undemocratic in its attempts to quell BDS & Palestine solidarity. Hoping members rise up against this ghoulish decision, esp in the context of an ongoing genocide. https://t.co/I8mYr5RwTI

The International Studies Association (ISA) claims to be “an organization that is governed by and answerable to its membership.” However…
Few things capture the cynical liberal imperialism of the ISA quite as well as this opening plenary. Who would combine an Indigenous land acknowledgement with a Ben Gurion University scholar's talk & a "Happy Hour" during a live colonial genocide? The political message is clear.

Israel just banned @UNRWA, the UN Palestinian refugee agency, from operating in the West Bank and Gaza. In the midst of a debilitating famine. This is a broader attack on the UN and multilateral legal institutions. 🧵 https://t.co/EaX0ezKiRK

Apartheid Israel obviously fails the basic conditions of UN membership. Besides its repeated military attacks on the UN – including the recent use of white phosphorus against 15 peacekeepers in Lebanon – Israel continues to add, every day, new levels of atrocities to the
