Two Judaisms, with diametrically opposite views of the world, are contending for a way through this moment. x.com/CarwilBJ/status/1719584906685390908

Amid this heartbreaking month, there are at least two radically different visions of Judaism taking the stage, one refusing and resisting the violence of the other. x.com/maximum_chips/status/1719545306294194319

In 2002, Israeli warplanes and American bombs killed one Hamas leader and 14 of his neighbors. There was a time when this was shocking. When newspapers had to describe the three house flattened and more ripped open. Because it wasn't the same everyday. washingtonpost.com/archive/politics/2002/07/24/grief-and-fury-pervade-quarter-as-search-finds-torn-bodies/f2e19fdf-60fc-457d-bb02-254f30f44f45/

Israel's behavior runs 180° counter to the positions taken by the US in Ukraine, Taiwan. From the beginning the US preferred not to speak of "international law" but a "rules-based international order" precisely to avoid accountability for its allies' transgressions. x.com/BMarchetich/status/1718993562631541101

Israeli tweet denouncing TV station labeling a Palestinian death count as "terrorists killed." "Each of us, every Israeli, has to choose what kind of person he is right now. Most of us are not like that, most of us do not want to lose our humanity. …" x.com/AlonLeeGreen/status/1718953099056803896

This press release from the IDF on October 11 has gotten entirely too little notice. #GazaWar #academia x.com/Lubchansky/status/1718343699640242582

After two decades of saying it was "antisemitic" to claim Israel is like Apartheid South Africa, now pro-Zionists argue it's antisemitic to say Israel is like the US, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, a settler colony. Perplexing.

Israel's communication minister has promised to boycott #Starlink after @elonmusk proposed allowing aid agencies to use the service. ynetnews.com/article/bjetsr5fp Pretty conclusive evidence that last night's shutdown of mobile service by @JawwalPal and @Paltelco is now Israeli policy.

This comment signifies that US advisors, dispatched instantly and at the highest level, have failed to limit Israeli ambitions. Since publicly embracing Israeli violence is the Biden administration's only policy, it shares full responsibility, no matter how frustrated he is. x.com/JM_Szuba/status/1718059754172330057

I know this is a dispiriting time in terms of concrete suffering, politicians' positions, and elite backlash against pro-Palestine voices. But it's also the largest and fastest mobilized movement challenging an Israeli war in American history. x.com/alexnpress/status/1718046631528952278

This is Biden's war. This is Israel's crime. #CeasefireNow #NoArmsToIsrael x.com/Timesofgaza/status/1717989107664654432

Hey #Rstats community, I need to find someone willing to scrape this document into a dataset. My main research project involves quantifying deaths from political violence in another context. Once this is a dataframe, I can write up some analysis. #SolidarityWithPalestine x.com/AseelAlBajeh/status/1717588222845354231

There are two lists in this document: the first lists 6,741 people and notes that 281 more have not had their names established. The second is children only; 2,665 names and 248 unidentified children. x.com/AseelAlBajeh/status/1717588222845354231

One right thing to do with this document, naming and enumerating seven thousand Palestinian lives ended in Gaza is to collectively annotate it, adding the stories of these deaths and biographies of those lost. #Gaza #DigitalHumanities x.com/AseelAlBajeh/status/1717588222845354231

Today might be the deadliest day for Palestinians since 1982. And this is the @nytimes lead story. Headlined by a Palestinian city inhabited, it says, by the Devil.

My Vanderbilt colleague Monica Keith, researching causal pathways for disparities in pregnancy outcomes. Her statistical work adds further support to case that stress of racism contributes to worse pregnancy outcomes for Black pregnant people. x.com/VandyAnthro/status/1716938647105335509

Some time today, the Palestinian death toll in Gaza (at 5,087 yesterday) will exceed the number of Palestinians killed in the First and Second Intifadas combined (high estimates 3,354 and 1,962 respectively. This month has been worse than 10 years. #Gaza #Palestine #casualties

A massive lack of democracy underlies American foreign policy. Going to war should require patient consultation from the bottom up, not the personal decision of a single leader. x.com/DataProgress/status/1715379996913475588

By sending arms and ammunition, a 3-star general and a carrier battle group, the president himself and a UN veto, the #Biden administration fully owns the consequences of Israel's bombing and pending invasion of #Gaza. axios.com/2023/10/23/israel-gaza-war-marine-general-ground-operation

Hamas' October 7 attack aligned with generations of Jewish trauma, especially the pogrom. Dara Horn @DaraHorn unpacks why.

This short film remembers Palestinian photojournalist Yaser Murtaja, the Ain Media company he co-founded, and his death killed by an Israeli sniper. His comrade Roshdi Al-Sarraj @RoshdiSarraj, killed today, is featured prominently. youtube.com/watch?v=dB1mPQYKQFE x.com/CarwilBJ/status/1716115681203122402

Their photographs and videos made life in Gaza immediate and human to others. An attempt to do the same for three murdered Palestinian videographers. woborders.blog/2023/10/22/three-palestinian-journalists/

As a descendant of Jews and the African diaspora, I realize that historic trauma casts a real shadow. But fearing expulsion from A SLOGAN that ends "Palestine will be free," while Gazans are under orders to evacuate 1/2 of the 1.3% of Israel/Palestine they are crowded within??

This is the hospital under evacuation order in Gaza City. x.com/PalestineRCS/status/1715474535837843804

As of today, or tomorrow if by some miracle their are no dead children in Gaza's rubble, there will be one dead Palestinian child for each Israeli civilian killed on October 7. (This leaves aside their parents, grandparents, and aunts and uncles.) Enough! Ceasefire Now!

My current standard for Biden's diplomacy not being worthless is simple: Has he extracted a commitment from Israel to stop ordering the evacuation of hospitals and clinics? #Gaza #BidenInIsrael

A friend asked me for recommendations on reliable journalism on Israel/Palestine. I highly recommend… 972mag.com — Joint Israeli/Palestinian journalism and opinion jadaliyya.com — Arab Studies Institute's news and analysis site

Since Saturday's attacks, Israeli retaliation in Gaza has killed 260 Palestinian children. It will be some time before those of us outside can see these children's faces, so let me share this documentary on children killed in 2021: aljazeera.com/program/featured-documentaries/2023/5/13/eleven-days-in-may

All human beings have the same ultimate vulnerability to weapons of war. And yet words of war like "right of self defense" or "sense of safety" are unfathomably different depending on whether one's home country has an air force or not.

There should be no public funding for stadiums unless the profits return to the public. Municipalization, cooperatives that redistribute surplus locally, or profit taxes all could work but giveaways are unconscionable. x.com/nashvillebiz/status/1699029669155074468

In preparation to write a #GenerativeAI policy for my classes, I experimented with #ChatGPT. Yes, its texts are often wrong and unreliable. But more important, even its best answers lead students on a path that is the opposite of research and reflection. 🧵
