Whether Netanyahu is dead or alive won’t change the fact that Israel is a genocidal settler-colonial state. But don’t think I won’t celebrate the day he joins Kissinger in hell.
It is standard for Western academia to support imperialist aggression.

🚨 ANNOUNCEMENT 🚨
By majority vote, the Tenure Advisory Committee at Texas Tech University determined that probable cause exists for my allegation of improper denial of tenure. Soon, I will have a hearing.
What is happening now is only the labour pains of something great that will be born from the rubble of defeat like a volcano born from under the cold ashes of a forsaken mountain.
—Ghassan Kanafani
I’m appealing my tenure denial.
I fear that, in order for the US & Israel to avoid further retaliation & humiliation by Iran, they may see the use of a nuclear weapon as the only way to hide the weaknesses Iran revealed & reestablish a position of strength that’s clearly dwindling. A dying empire has no limits.
There’s nothing like looking at the list of those who got tenure and realizing that your publication record is stronger than most of them yet you’re the one who was denied tenure. So much for the meritocracy administrators love to defend.
“if language is the means of the exploiter, what then can serve as the defense of the exploited? And if the exploiter goes beyond the exploitation of language used to obtain his own objectives, then what is to be the strategy for the exploited?”
