- Reposted by Isis NaucratisIt is unacceptable for Canada to promote "dialogue" with Israel on AI, which uses it for the surveillance and mass-killing of Palestinians. Send an email to Minister Evan Solomon to tell him that we don’t need Israel’s genocidal AI: www.cjpme.org/no_israeli_ai

- Another reason to #boycottASOR: This Israel Antiquities Authority employee will talk about a site located on the depopulated Palestinian village of Dayr Rafat. The ethnic cleansing of that and 4 other nearby villages took place on July 17-18, 1948. www.asor.org/news/2026/01...

- Thanks to Matthew Sears for co-writing this piece with me for the @theglobeandmail.com: it was fun! Our focus is on the broader meaning of a quote from 5th c. BCE historian and general Thucydides' Melian Dialogue used by Mark Carney in his Davos speech. www.theglobeandmail.com/opinion/arti...
- Totally on brand coming from a museum that pushed out Wanda Nanibush for supporting Palestine. Talk about "decolonization" 🤡

- Reposted by Isis NaucratisIf nothing else, pretty amazing Canadian PM Carney said the quiet part out loud today: international law has never been real and the ‘rules’ of the international order have never applied to the US and its allies. This may indeed be the actual death of neoliberalism. globalnews.ca/news/1162087...
- "Everyday we are reminded that ... "the strong can do what they can, and the weak must suffer what they must"". This passage comes from Thucydides' Melian dialogue btw Athenian emissaries & the rulers of Milos, who the Athenians ended up mass killing + enslaving because they refused to pay tribute

- "When we only negotiate bilaterally w a hegemon we negotiate from weakness. We accept what's offered...this is not sovereignty. It's the performance of sovereignty while accepting subordination..."
- Full speech and convo w Carney www.youtube.com/watch?v=WIEH...

- Wow
- Carney: "American hegemony in particular helped provide public goods, a stable financial system... this bargain no longer works. Let me be direct. We are in the midst of a rupture, not a transition... recently, great powers have begun using economic integration as a weapon. Tariffs as leverage ... "
- Canada's border agent claiming their system crashes every other day is not exactly a professional vibe. Meanwhile this update just came in on @hindrajabfoundation.be's ig stories

- Reposted by Isis NaucratisThe details are horrific. “He was just lifeless, like he had foam around his mouth... He had tears coming out of his eyes. I was giving him mouth-to-mouth, and I remember stopping, and I said, ‘I will give you all my breath ‘til you get yours back.’”

- Shame on the @historians.org 's Council for vetoing 2 Palestine-related resolutions that passed w huge majorities. The genocidal, cleptocratic nature of Zionism is exposed. All Zionists are left with are corruption, bullying and autocratic moves. This won't work. www.jadaliyya.com/Details/4711...

- Respect for your sense of ethics, @kayth.bsky.social, and absolute shame on the Zionist bullies and their accomplices. Their desperate tactics are only further evidence of their moral bankrupcy. Time to boycott EAA. Free Palestine.

- I am disgusted to see that despite their professional complicity and the plethora of abhorrent, g@n@ocidal posts they have been making on their public fb page (as documented 👇), Norma Franklin and Aren Maeir were still welcome at ASOR last November 1/ sparrows4palestine.substack.com/p/platformin...

- Reposted by Isis NaucratisA teenage boy was walking home in Minneapolis yesterday when four masked men jumped out of a van & questioned him - with no parent or guardian present. He was bundled into the van & taken away. Bystanders heard the boy say: “Can I just go home?” I don’t know how America comes back from all this.
