Andy Ellis @csoandy.bsky.social · 23/03/2024It’s apparently starting to be fashionable for Jews to call for a “bilateral ceasefire.” I reject this quisling formulation. I call upon Hamas and its Gazan supporters to unilaterally surrender, release all hostages, and permit humanitarian aid to reach the people of Gaza. 300

Andy Ellis @csoandy.bsky.social · 28/10/2023The commentary of Columbia and Harvard have an interesting sub-plot. They both refer to the doxxed targets not by their ideology (antisemitism), but by their identity (Palestinian, Arab, Muslim, leaving out the doxxed Jews). They’re seeing this as a race war, not a Shoah. 000
