As attacks mount on #universities, the survival of free speech and academic freedom hangs in the balance. For universities, the response should be obvious: no more buckling under repressive pressures from narrow-minded autocrats. My piece in The Guardian theguardian.com/commentisfre…

It’s too late, David. I followed your work in the late 1990s an early 2000s, and I teach your failed lessons. Today, you are not reading the room. These arguments no longer work after what people have witnessed constantly for the past two years. No one with a shred of decency cares about your equating of antisemitism with anti-Zionism. It’s like equating anti-Nazism with some sort of bigotry. Both must be opposed for humanity to move forward— and certainly for the United States to do the same. Fortunately, even in the United States, the latecomer, this is happening broadly, increasingly, and inexorably. Hence the desperate attempts (articles, SM Hasbara, media acquisitions, corrupt law-fare etc.) which will actually prove the point and deepen anti-Zionism. Keep at it. Good day.

“With everything we do, we are undercutting the laws of war,” says former NSC official Gary Sick. At 91, he reflects, “I would never have believed that we would find ourselves in the position that we’re in, as the rogue nation in the world.”

I can’t describe how dispiriting it is to have this sociopath who just learned about Judaism declare that those of us who’ve lived this tradition our entire lives are not real Jews because we interpret our history to mean we should oppose oppression rather than embrace it.

One of the most heartbreaking examples of nonverbal communication to emerge from Iran. I cannot call this a mere propaganda piece. It is the unbearable truth, laid bare through the profound art of cinematography and animation.

My latest in @nytimes is about how President Trump came to align himself with a foreign terrorist organization in Honduras. Buckle up for this. nytimes.com/2026/01/29/opini…

. @Ken_Rosenthal running into the cameraman to avoid the Gatorade bath and then giving him the death glare and shaking his head in anger like it’s his fault is weird behavior

Yes we’re lucky. Lucky to have this team 😈

We may never find out what happened here but it sure looks like @espn caved to the @nfl and killed Spike Lee's documentary on @Kaepernick7 So much for the NFL's bullshit about "social justice." ESPN will not air Spike Lee's docuseries on Colin Kaepernick, citing 'creative differences' reuters.com/business/media-t…

No, Larry. What was profound & dangerous to NYC, the Democratic Party & the USA was the neoliberal doctrine pushed by you to deregulate & bailout Wall Street, outsource millions of our jobs to China & Mexico & increase the extreme poverty rate through so-called welfare reform.

This seems like it was cut and pasted from the Weekly Standard circa 2003. Just like that idiocy this idiocy will get lots of people killed. And it will not make us safer.

NEITHER IRAN OR AMERICA WANT TO FIGHT EACH OTHER… Israel is engineering their hardest to get them to go to war. WAKE UP AMERICA‼️

Twenty months into a genocide and Sky News never had a Gazan on to talk about how it felt to be under Israeli bombs Twenty hours into retaliatory strikes from Iran and there’s wall-to-wall coverage on how hard this is for the people who started the war because they’re Israeli

Israel's close intermingling of military and civilian sites makes it difficult to know what Iran is aiming its missiles at. When Hamas does this in the tiny Gaza Strip, Israel accuses it of using human shields. trib.al/Q2ktfDm

Thousands of starved Palestinians desperately sought food and supplies as a result of the government of Israel’s calculated policy to use starvation as a weapon of war. Any aid program must respect the dignity, safety and protection of the civilian population.
