- We (a group of academics and scholars) are calling for an immediate end to #Israel’s war against #Iran and #Palestine. If you support this call, please add your name to the petition here. Thank you! #solidarity #ceasefirenow #petition docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...
- The masks are coming off: human values and international law seem to count for nothing anymore. This was already evident when the world did nothing to stop the genocide in Gaza. As you read this, Israel is still killing civilians who are already displaced & starving. www.standaard.be/opinies/je-k...

- Like many other #Iranians living outside the country, I’ve been watching anxiously and worrying sick about my family, friends and loved ones in Iran. When they can get a stable enough internet connection, they tell me about the constant fear and uncertainly they’re living in.
