Dr. Feroze Sidhwa's harrowing experiences treating patients in Gaza undoubtedly show that Israel's "war" on Gaza is not a conflict with Hamas—but a full throated attack on the civilian population.
The psychotic assembly of mass murderers called "Israel" will pay for its many crimes. There is simply no way such barbarism can be allowed in the 21rst Century without consequences. The pictures and stories out of Gaza and the West Bank are beyond horrifying. Humanity at its very worst.
Remember - the US has funded and supported this genocide since it began (and way before the Oct.7th date given) and still MSM news outlets in the US are saying that Israel has a right to defend itself, therefore, it is apparently permissible to continue the brutal slaughter - to withhold water, food, medical supplies, bombing hospitals, killing medical personal and journalists - the US is the leading mass murder in the world and has been for longer than most seem willing to acknowledge. Pretending it is not so doesn't change the reality we've been encouraged to ignore without consequence.
Yes, MLK stated this (US=greatest purveyor of violence) in 1967. Has been true EVERY single year since then. Far as I can tell, the relationship between Israel and the US is incestuous, genetically overlapping such that a separation is hard. US State Dep is full of dual national Zionists, read, fascists.
It’s amazing, and sickening, how quickly the Zionist propaganda machine swung into action on Oct. 7th, with the news media (I get a kick out of term “presstitutes”) having ready-made copy provided to them and Biden fed the script for his address from the White House that very day:
“Today the people of Israel are under attack orchestrated by a terrorist organization, Hamas. In this moment of tragedy, I want to say to them and to the world and to terrorists everywhere, the United States stands with Israel. We will not ever fail to have their back, we’ll make sure that they’ll have the help their citizens need and they can continue to defend themselves.
“The world has seen appalling images of thousands of rockets in a space of hours raining down on Israeli cities… Israel has the right to defend itself and its people, full stop. There’s never justification for terrorist attacks and my administration’s support for Israel’s security is rock solid and unwavering.”
Ignorant, obedient buffoon. Characteristic of the Zionists’ inverted relationship with the truth, repressive, occupier forces have no right to defend themselves, whereas the UN General Assembly has long recognized all peoples under occupier domination have the right to self-determination and liberation by all available means, including armed struggle. Put unindicted war criminal at the top of Biden’s legacy.
Questions: Has the American Medical Association come out with any position or statement or actions concerning the genocide in Gaza and the killings of medical personnel there? How about the Israeli Medical Association, what response have they had to the grotesqueries taking place just over their borders (and within them too, for that matter, in the prison camps), or has it been part of their medical education and training that suffering, illness, and injury do not apply to “human animals,” even the youngest among them? Does the Hippocratic Oath have universal application, or do Israeli practitioners of the healing arts swear to a Hypocritic Oath?
I am so incensed over this that I have included a few more instances of the insidious depths (in more ways than one) to which the Zionist propaganda machine has gone, will go, in addition to Biden’s execrable script.
"I have no doubt that what needs to be probed will be probed, but I also have no doubt in my heart that the IDF is the most moral army in the world." -Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak
“I don’t think there’s been another army in history that has ever taken this much concern for a civilian population, of the enemy it is trying to defeat.” -Maj. Doron Spielman, Israel Defense Forces international spokesman
“Remember what Amalek did to you (Deuteronomy 25:17). We remember and we fight. Our brave soldiers who are now in Gaza, around Gaza and in the other sectors throughout the country, join a chain of heroes of Israel that has continued for over 3,000 years... Our heroic soldiers have one supreme goal: To destroy the murderous enemy and ensure our existence in our land. . . The IDF is the most moral army in the world, the IDF does everything to avoid harming the uninvolved . . .” -Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
“It is impossible in today’s global reality to wage war – no one in the world would let us starve and thirst two million citizens, even though it may be just and moral until they return our hostages.” – Bezalel Smotrich, Israeli Finance Minister
“No electricity, no food, no water, no gas. It's all closed. We are fighting animals and are acting accordingly. ” -Yoav Gallant, Israeli Defense Minister
“[T]he food and aid depots should be bombed in order to create military and political pressure.” -Itamar Ben-Gvir, Minister of National Security of Israel
"I don't believe you have to be a Jew to be a Zionist, and I am a Zionist." -President Joe Biden
“It’s now quite clear that there are simply no facts at all—none—that will alter the fixed narrative of lies, distortions and blood libels with which the liberal internationalist order is demonizing and delegitimizing Israel. The claim that Israel is starving the civilians of Gaza and causing an imminent famine has been pumped out incessantly since soon after the beginning of the Israel-Hamas war… The world has brushed aside Israel’s repeated protests that there has been no shortage of food trucks arriving with aid for Gaza and that the problem lay instead with distribution because Hamas was stealing the supplies.” -Melanie Phillips, columnist for Jewish News Syndicate
“If you want pilots to be able to fly and shoot bombs and missiles into houses knowing they might be killing children,” she said, “they must have the strongest confidence in the [politicians] making those decisions.” -Shira Etting, an Israeli pilot
“L’chaim!” -An Israeli Air Force pilot, after dropping U.S.-supplied 2,000 lb. Bombs on civilians in Gaza, including children/terrorists [Okay, I made that one up, but I wouldn’t doubt it happening].
The official of the USA State Dept for Israel and Palestine, Stuart Seldowitz, said it all when he said, "Four thousand Palestinian children dead! NOT ENOUGH. NOT ENOUGH!" Now there four times as many slaughtered. For Israel that is still not enough; the killers are not sated and pretend they don't understand why people, including many Jewish people, are sickened by the one-sided slaughter.

Former adviser to US ambassador to Israel calls on Whitmer to resign after 'fraudulent' response to attacks. Kyle Morris, Mon, October 9, 2023
US military moving ships and aircraft closer to Israel.
A former Trump-era adviser to the U.S. ambassador to Israel is calling on Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer to resign after she "embarrassed herself" while responding to the terrorist attacks on Israel. In an early morning post to social media on Sunday, Aryeh Lightstone, who served as a senior adviser to former U.S. Ambassador to Israel David Friedman from 2017 to 2021, took aim at Whitmer for her comments following the Iranian-backed Hamas terrorist attacks on Israel.
You are correct, of course. In reality there is no justice. Even the immediate expulsion of all Zionist barbarians from "Israel" will not bring back a single murdered Palestinian child, woman or man. BUT if this life-streamed genocide is allowed to stand without consequences humanity needs to be renamed to barbarity or something, and needs to disapear.
The End of The West is 25 years in, already (Spengler). All that's left to do is open your eyes, however not unlike lemmings the majority of mankind shall continue to hurl themselves into the depths of this hell on earth in their pompous, absence of the love of our Creators intension.
Not all cats have such disdain. We just had to put down our 8 year old cat Marty yesterday. He had a huge aggressive cancerous mass that apparently formed in the last month or two. He was the sweetest sentient being and had zero disdain for us. On the other hand I have quite the disdain for humans, and perhaps in that vein one could say this cat named Schrodinger’s Cat fits that description.
I'm sorry for your loss. Even a soulless machine can compose beautiful poems to the cats. This is my AI assistant composition:
A Tribute to Our Feline Friends
Graceful shadows on padded feet, With curious hearts and charm discrete. From sunny perch to moonlit chase, They rule the house with subtle grace.
Their purring hums, a soothing song, A melody where we belong. Whiskers twitch, tails held high, Mischievous glimmers in their eye.
Through days of warmth, they softly sleep, Dreaming secrets they’ll always keep. Yet come the night, their spirit roams, Turning the quiet into their homes.
To care for cats is love refined, A special bond, uniquely kind. They ask for little, give so much, A regal soul with healing touch.
So here's to cats, companions dear, Their silent wisdom always near. In every meow, in every stride, A piece of wonder they provide
Although most if not all Hedges’ readers already knew this is true, I was still struck by Dr. Sidhwa’s laying this massacre directly on the United States. It belongs there, but it is shocking and deeply shameful.
This was an incredibly powerful interview. I wish every politician who ever signed a bomb was forced to live in a tent and endure the same sufferings they’ve so cruelly inflicted on children. May God bless the doctors who sacrifice so much to help save lives and risk their own. That’s true courage.
The Devine Mandate has shifted to the rich. If you can afford it you deserve the best. If you can’t you can die. We’ll see more than just the Gazan Genocide in the 21st Century.
Saddest thing I've ever heard in my entire life. i'm in some kind of shock. I can't believe my country would be involved in such evil. I'm a changed man.
there's got to be justice on the horizon and reparation ....... at least
Your country has been at the forefront of evil Joseph since 1492 - this is intentionally omitted from our education - we have been spoon fed myths of how great we are for all of our days - read the truth tellers - turn off the MSM liberal darlings at NPR, PBS, BBC, NYT, etc., and their counterparts at Fox News - they are all deceiving us.
Here's a recent example of how compromised PBS is - on a Frontline type program I saw a clip promoting it before it was aired that featured Jake Sullivan from the Biden (genocide team) administration = are you fcuking kidding me = this is an insult to those of us who are paying attention.
Dear Changed Man, understand that you and everyone in this country has been fooled and lied to since day one, about who we are, and what we do. The truth is liberating. Thank you JW.
And of course there are lots of examples before WWII. Native American genocide. African slavery. The USA has been a massive purveyor of violence since its inception.
I and most others here will never be able to match the bravery of doctors like Feroze Sidhwa. So let us do what little we can. Gaza has called for a besieging of US embassies in every country in the world on April 25th. Here in London we will do our little bit. Please all, find out what is happening wherever you are and take part. This genocide belongs to the US!
A wonderful, informative interview. Dr. Sidhwa is a hero, representing the goodness of humanity. The IDF and the Israeli government represent pure evil and as a Jew I am ashamed and appalled that that I am in any way related to this group of individuals. It was very difficult for me to listen to this interview describing the crimes against humanity being carried out by the IDF against the Palestinians.
TENS OF THOUSANDS WAR CRIMINALS will soon be Entering the US. In fact, some of them are already here attacking anti-war protesters with chemical weapons they previously deployed in Israel. Others, who volunteered to participated in Israel's genocidal war, will be returning to countries like France and Britain to threaten our safety and weaken democratic institutions.
Why has no one raised the alarm over 23,000 U.S.A. citizens who have gone to Israel to fight in a genocidal war in Gaza? Isn't it illegal to join the military of another country to give your life & loyalty for the political goals of another government? Anti-war protesters in USA are losing jobs, being expelled, kidnapped and deported for being against the Israeli war and ethnic cleansing. Why aren't U.S. Citizens volunteering for the Israeli genocide being tried for treason, or arrested upon returning, or being stopped at the border and sent back to Israel and having their U.S. citizenship revoked? Over 23,000 Americans working for Israel - WHO ARE THEY? They need to be identified and held accountable for their role in Genocide. ICE refuses entry to innocent refugees yet allows murderous militants entry?
CHEMICAL WARFARE
At Columbia U, on Jan/19/24, two Israel Occupation Force soldiers were identified as two of the perpetrators in a chemical attack on anti-war students. The chemical spray, produced in Israel, is used by the Israeli military IDF on Palestinians to suppress protests against settler terrorists and the Israeli occupation. Both Israeli soldiers were current Columbia students. They were wearing keffiyeh disguises to spray protesters with a chemical weapon imported from Israel. Several of their victims were hospitalized for decontamination. Members of Jewish Voice for Peace reported being spat on and harassed by Israeli pro-war on-lookers. The soldier's names were hidden to protect their identity. The Israeli soldier-students weren't arrested for chemical warfare or even assault, but one who was suspended for a few months sued Columbia over his temporary suspension and was awarded almost half a million dollars ($395,000) by Columbia for his assaults on anti-war students. The Israeli soldiers apparently lied about the chemical spray, characterizing it as a novelty joke item of USA origin and its use by them simplyan expression of freedom of speech. A perversion of justice beyond cynical.
This is an instance of using the US Courts to reward Israeli soldiers using military weapons to attack US students in order to suppress their speech and their protests against genocide and ethnic cleansing. Despite being legal residents, students are too terrified to fight back - for good reason.
The student, (who deployed chemical spray) according to a document, is a Jewish-Hispanic immigrant who served in the Israeli army and holds both American and Israeli citizenship. A senior at Columbia, he was one of two students suspended by the university until the end of the semester for spraying the protesters at a demonstration on January 17th 2024. Their names are being withheld to protect their identity and protect them from personal criticism.
AI facial recognition software company Betar spokesman Daniel Levy says people on his list were identified using a facial-recognition tool called NesherAI created by Hawila's company, Stellar Technologies, located in his apartment in Brooklyn. The software's name is from the Hebrew word for “eagle.” Demonstrating the software, Hawila allowed the computer code to assimilate the upload of thousands of photos from social media accounts. The software matched a screenshot of a masked protester Hawila photographed at a recent demonstration with publicity photos of a woman who he was then able to identify.
USA GULAG ARCHIPELAGO
Anti-war student arrests: Turkish student, Rumeysa Ozturk, who was studying for her doctorate at Tufts on a Fulbright scholarship with a student visa was surrounded by six government agents on a street near her home. She was man-handled, hand-cuffed and whisked off in a Gestapo-type operation. She was then secretly taken to a site in a part of the far-reaching USA Gulag Archipelago. Her sin was criticizing Tufts’ response to a student group’s call for the university to divest from Israeli companies.
Alireza Doroudi, a University of Alabama doctoral student originally from Iran, was also detained by ICE. He had been held at a jail, but was transferred to federal custody in Jena, La.
Momodou Taal, a doctoral candidate in Africana Studies at Cornell, had his student visa revoked for participating in anti-war protests protests and creating a hostile environment for Jewish students, according to US government officials. “I have lost faith I could walk the streets without being abducted,” Taal said, “Weighing up these options, I took the decision to leave on my own terms.”
Mahmoud Khalil, a graduate student at Columbia until December, was in his apartment when several ICE agents entered and took him into custody. Khalil was in the United States as a permanent resident with a green card,
Yunseo Chung, a 21-year-old Columbia University student who has lived in the US since she was 7, filed a suit after immigration agents tried to arrest and deport her for participating in anti-war demonstrations.
HARVARD UNIV
Hedge fund billionaire and Harvard alumni Bill Ackman led the call for the ouster of the Harvard President accusing her of Anti-Semitism. The CEO of Pershing Square is well-known for pressure campaigns, having built much of his wealth by using aggressive propaganda techniques. He called for the names of all the students who signed an anti-war statement (calling on Israel to stop the bombings) so that he and other CEOs could blacklist them from ever being hired by their firms. Ackman had the students faces displayed on trucks around campus labeling the students "anti-Semites." He also sent mailings to everyone in the area naming the Anti-War students. In addition, he hired a helicopter to fly over the area with signs in the sky naming the students. Overkill to crush dissent and support the bombing of Gaza? Ackman said the Harvard Board was worried that if they fired president Gay, it would look like they were kowtowing to him.
UNIV OF PENN
Among the first to call on Elizabeth Magill to resign was Marc Rowan, CEO of private equity giant Apollo Global Management. Rowan is one of the university’s wealthiest donors.
Billionaire Ronald Lauder, another powerful financial backer of school, threatened to do the same if more wasn’t done to fight "antisemitism." Brandeis Center, a Jewish civil rights legal organization, filed civil rights complaints with the US Dept of Education, accusing Penn of nurturing a hostile environment toward Jewish students. Stone Ridge Holdings CEO Ross Stevens, a major donor to Penn, sent a letter to Penn threatening to cost the school approximately $100 million for allowing students anti-war demonstrations.
COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY
Columbia President Minouche Shafik resigned after a little more than a year. She's the third female college president to lose her job. Students' protests over how Israel is fighting its war against the Palestinians has exposed cracks in the protection of the right to express an opinion publicly without being penalized or maligned.
New York GOP Rep. Elise Stefanik, a Harvard alumna, was relentless in her condemnation of the women college presidents. Hearing of Shafik's resignation Elise Stefanik said, “THREE DOWN, so many to go.”
A fourth woman, interim college President at Columbia, Katrina Armstrong, has been forced out after seven months. Armstrong’s resignation from Columbia U. comes after the Trump White House called for a ban on masks at campus anti-war protests as part of a list of reforms aimed at cracking down on "rampant antisemitism" that demonstrations against the massive bombing of Palestinians are being cast as.
Fifth woman: tenured Columbia University law professor Katherine Franke is stepping down after 25 years following a university investigation into her comments during an anti-war campus protest on January 2024 involving two IDF Israeli students who sprayed anti-war demonstrators with a chemical made and used in Israel by the IDF to suppress protests in Palestine. In an interview with Democracy Now! Franke claimed that Israeli students who had served in the Israel Defense Forces "have been known to harass Palestinian and other students on our campus."
Massachusetts Institute of Technology President Sally Kornbluth; although grilled by Stefanik, was spared ouster by the pro-Israel billionaires.
Reports have indicated that approximately 100 USA black sites exist all over the world, including in countries like Poland, Romania, Thailand, Lithuania (site Violet recently in the news, where Kalid Shaik Muhammad was waterboarded), Egypt, Guantanamo, etc. to hide prisoners being held and/or tortured by U.S. military or CIA agents.
Yes, our country has been hijacked by Christian and Jew Zionists and it seems they are controlling the three branches of our government. That is why it is so important to participate in massive acts of civil disobedience. I just remembered the great Howard Zinn telling that humanity began with an act of civil disobedience (the Eden myth) and will finish with an act of civil obedience, the nuclear war started by the politicians.
The sadism of the Israelis is even worse than the one of the Nazis. Dying of starvation is much worst than in a gas chamber. Thank you Dr. Feroze Sidhwa and Mr. Hedges for this report. I hope Zionism will collapse soon. The following is the end of a recent Ilan Pape's piece where he analyzes the many points that are indicating the collapse of Zionism:
"Whether people welcome the idea or dread it, the collapse of Israel has become foreseeable. This possibility should inform the long-term conversation about the region’s future. It will be forced onto the agenda as people realize that the century-long attempt, led by Britain and then the US, to impose a Jewish state on an Arab country is slowly coming to an end. It was successful enough to create a society of millions of settlers, many of them now second- and third-generation. But their presence still depends, as it did when they arrived, on their ability to violently impose their will on millions of indigenous people, who have never given up their struggle for self-determination and freedom in their homeland. In the decades to come, the settlers will have to part with this approach and show their willingness to live as equal citizens in a liberated and decolonized Palestine"
The psychotic assembly of mass murderers called "Israel" will pay for its many crimes. There is simply no way such barbarism can be allowed in the 21rst Century without consequences. The pictures and stories out of Gaza and the West Bank are beyond horrifying. Humanity at its very worst.
Remember - the US has funded and supported this genocide since it began (and way before the Oct.7th date given) and still MSM news outlets in the US are saying that Israel has a right to defend itself, therefore, it is apparently permissible to continue the brutal slaughter - to withhold water, food, medical supplies, bombing hospitals, killing medical personal and journalists - the US is the leading mass murder in the world and has been for longer than most seem willing to acknowledge. Pretending it is not so doesn't change the reality we've been encouraged to ignore without consequence.
Yes, MLK stated this (US=greatest purveyor of violence) in 1967. Has been true EVERY single year since then. Far as I can tell, the relationship between Israel and the US is incestuous, genetically overlapping such that a separation is hard. US State Dep is full of dual national Zionists, read, fascists.
It’s amazing, and sickening, how quickly the Zionist propaganda machine swung into action on Oct. 7th, with the news media (I get a kick out of term “presstitutes”) having ready-made copy provided to them and Biden fed the script for his address from the White House that very day:
“Today the people of Israel are under attack orchestrated by a terrorist organization, Hamas. In this moment of tragedy, I want to say to them and to the world and to terrorists everywhere, the United States stands with Israel. We will not ever fail to have their back, we’ll make sure that they’ll have the help their citizens need and they can continue to defend themselves.
“The world has seen appalling images of thousands of rockets in a space of hours raining down on Israeli cities… Israel has the right to defend itself and its people, full stop. There’s never justification for terrorist attacks and my administration’s support for Israel’s security is rock solid and unwavering.”
Ignorant, obedient buffoon. Characteristic of the Zionists’ inverted relationship with the truth, repressive, occupier forces have no right to defend themselves, whereas the UN General Assembly has long recognized all peoples under occupier domination have the right to self-determination and liberation by all available means, including armed struggle. Put unindicted war criminal at the top of Biden’s legacy.
Questions: Has the American Medical Association come out with any position or statement or actions concerning the genocide in Gaza and the killings of medical personnel there? How about the Israeli Medical Association, what response have they had to the grotesqueries taking place just over their borders (and within them too, for that matter, in the prison camps), or has it been part of their medical education and training that suffering, illness, and injury do not apply to “human animals,” even the youngest among them? Does the Hippocratic Oath have universal application, or do Israeli practitioners of the healing arts swear to a Hypocritic Oath?
I am so incensed over this that I have included a few more instances of the insidious depths (in more ways than one) to which the Zionist propaganda machine has gone, will go, in addition to Biden’s execrable script.

The IDF is the most moral army in the world, the IDF does everything to avoid harming the uninvolved . . .” -Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
“It is impossible in today’s global reality to wage war – no one in the world would let us starve and thirst two million citizens, even though it may be just and moral until they return our hostages.” – Bezalel Smotrich, Israeli Finance Minister

“[T]he food and aid depots should be bombed in order to create military and political pressure.” -Itamar Ben-Gvir, Minister of National Security of Israel
"I don't believe you have to be a Jew to be a Zionist, and I am a Zionist." -President Joe Biden
“It’s now quite clear that there are simply no facts at all—none—that will alter the fixed narrative of lies, distortions and blood libels with which the liberal internationalist order is demonizing and delegitimizing Israel. The claim that Israel is starving the civilians of Gaza and causing an imminent famine has been pumped out incessantly since soon after the beginning of the Israel-Hamas war… The world has brushed aside Israel’s repeated protests that there has been no shortage of food trucks arriving with aid for Gaza and that the problem lay instead with distribution because Hamas was stealing the supplies.” -Melanie Phillips, columnist for Jewish News Syndicate
“If you want pilots to be able to fly and shoot bombs and missiles into houses knowing they might be killing children,” she said, “they must have the strongest confidence in the [politicians] making those decisions.” -Shira Etting, an Israeli pilot
“L’chaim!” -An Israeli Air Force pilot, after dropping U.S.-supplied 2,000 lb. Bombs on civilians in Gaza, including children/terrorists [Okay, I made that one up, but I wouldn’t doubt it happening].
The official of the USA State Dept for Israel and Palestine, Stuart Seldowitz, said it all when he said, "Four thousand Palestinian children dead! NOT ENOUGH. NOT ENOUGH!" Now there four times as many slaughtered. For Israel that is still not enough; the killers are not sated and pretend they don't understand why people, including many Jewish people, are sickened by the one-sided slaughter.

While Israel deserves every bad thing it gets and then some, what makes you so sure that it will pay for any of this?
The Hindus had to invent reincarnation, because there is no justice in this life.
You are correct, of course. In reality there is no justice. Even the immediate expulsion of all Zionist barbarians from "Israel" will not bring back a single murdered Palestinian child, woman or man. BUT if this life-streamed genocide is allowed to stand without consequences humanity needs to be renamed to barbarity or something, and needs to disapear.

Why aren't U.S. Citizens volunteering for the Israeli genocide being tried for treason, or arrested upon returning, or being stopped at the border and sent back to Israel and having their U.S. citizenship revoked? Over 23,000 Americans working for Israel - WHO ARE THEY? They need to be identified and held accountable for their role in Genocide. ICE refuses entry to innocent refugees yet allows murderous militants entry?
CHEMICAL WARFARE
At Columbia U, on Jan/19/24, two Israel Occupation Force soldiers were identified as two of the perpetrators in a chemical attack on anti-war students. The chemical spray, produced in Israel, is used by the Israeli military IDF on Palestinians to suppress protests against settler terrorists and the Israeli occupation. Both Israeli soldiers were current Columbia students. They were wearing keffiyeh disguises to spray protesters with a chemical weapon imported from Israel. Several of their victims were hospitalized for decontamination. Members of Jewish Voice for Peace reported being spat on and harassed by Israeli pro-war on-lookers. The soldier's names were hidden to protect their identity. The Israeli soldier-students weren't arrested for chemical warfare or even assault, but one who was suspended for a few months sued Columbia over his temporary suspension and was awarded almost half a million dollars ($395,000) by Columbia for his assaults on anti-war students. The Israeli soldiers apparently lied about the chemical spray, characterizing it as a novelty joke item of USA origin and its use by them simplyan expression of freedom of speech. A perversion of justice beyond cynical.
This is an instance of using the US Courts to reward Israeli soldiers using military weapons to attack US students in order to suppress their speech and their protests against genocide and ethnic cleansing. Despite being legal residents, students are too terrified to fight back - for good reason.
The student, (who deployed chemical spray) according to a document, is a Jewish-Hispanic immigrant who served in the Israeli army and holds both American and Israeli citizenship. A senior at Columbia, he was one of two students suspended by the university until the end of the semester for spraying the protesters at a demonstration on January 17th 2024. Their names are being withheld to protect their identity and protect them from personal criticism.

STALKING STUDENT DEMONSTRATORS:
AI facial recognition software company Betar spokesman Daniel Levy says people on his list were identified using a facial-recognition tool called NesherAI created by Hawila's company, Stellar Technologies, located in his apartment in Brooklyn. The software's name is from the Hebrew word for “eagle.” Demonstrating the software, Hawila allowed the computer code to assimilate the upload of thousands of photos from social media accounts. The software matched a screenshot of a masked protester Hawila photographed at a recent demonstration with publicity photos of a woman who he was then able to identify.
USA GULAG ARCHIPELAGO
Anti-war student arrests: Turkish student, Rumeysa Ozturk, who was studying for her doctorate at Tufts on a Fulbright scholarship with a student visa was surrounded by six government agents on a street near her home. She was man-handled, hand-cuffed and whisked off in a Gestapo-type operation. She was then secretly taken to a site in a part of the far-reaching USA Gulag Archipelago. Her sin was criticizing Tufts’ response to a student group’s call for the university to divest from Israeli companies.
Alireza Doroudi, a University of Alabama doctoral student originally from Iran, was also detained by ICE. He had been held at a jail, but was transferred to federal custody in Jena, La.
Momodou Taal, a doctoral candidate in Africana Studies at Cornell, had his student visa revoked for participating in anti-war protests protests and creating a hostile environment for Jewish students, according to US government officials. “I have lost faith I could walk the streets without being abducted,” Taal said, “Weighing up these options, I took the decision to leave on my own terms.”
Mahmoud Khalil, a graduate student at Columbia until December, was in his apartment when several ICE agents entered and took him into custody. Khalil was in the United States as a permanent resident with a green card,
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/mar/30/columbia-alumni-diplomas-mahmoud-khalil Current student and a friend of Khalil’s, said: “Students are terrified to set foot on campus. I’m one of them, so just the fact that I’m here is scary because [of] the way that our colleagues have disappeared."
Yunseo Chung, a 21-year-old Columbia University student who has lived in the US since she was 7, filed a suit after immigration agents tried to arrest and deport her for participating in anti-war demonstrations.
HARVARD UNIV
Hedge fund billionaire and Harvard alumni Bill Ackman led the call for the ouster of the Harvard President accusing her of Anti-Semitism. The CEO of Pershing Square is well-known for pressure campaigns, having built much of his wealth by using aggressive propaganda techniques. He called for the names of all the students who signed an anti-war statement (calling on Israel to stop the bombings) so that he and other CEOs could blacklist them from ever being hired by their firms. Ackman had the students faces displayed on trucks around campus labeling the students "anti-Semites." He also sent mailings to everyone in the area naming the Anti-War students. In addition, he hired a helicopter to fly over the area with signs in the sky naming the students. Overkill to crush dissent and support the bombing of Gaza? Ackman said the Harvard Board was worried that if they fired president Gay, it would look like they were kowtowing to him.
UNIV OF PENN
Among the first to call on Elizabeth Magill to resign was Marc Rowan, CEO of private equity giant Apollo Global Management. Rowan is one of the university’s wealthiest donors.
Billionaire Ronald Lauder, another powerful financial backer of school, threatened to do the same if more wasn’t done to fight "antisemitism." Brandeis Center, a Jewish civil rights legal organization, filed civil rights complaints with the US Dept of Education, accusing Penn of nurturing a hostile environment toward Jewish students. Stone Ridge Holdings CEO Ross Stevens, a major donor to Penn, sent a letter to Penn threatening to cost the school approximately $100 million for allowing students anti-war demonstrations.
COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY
Columbia President Minouche Shafik resigned after a little more than a year. She's the third female college president to lose her job. Students' protests over how Israel is fighting its war against the Palestinians has exposed cracks in the protection of the right to express an opinion publicly without being penalized or maligned.
New York GOP Rep. Elise Stefanik, a Harvard alumna, was relentless in her condemnation of the women college presidents. Hearing of Shafik's resignation Elise Stefanik said, “THREE DOWN, so many to go.”
A fourth woman, interim college President at Columbia, Katrina Armstrong, has been forced out after seven months. Armstrong’s resignation from Columbia U. comes after the Trump White House called for a ban on masks at campus anti-war protests as part of a list of reforms aimed at cracking down on "rampant antisemitism" that demonstrations against the massive bombing of Palestinians are being cast as.
Fifth woman: tenured Columbia University law professor Katherine Franke is stepping down after 25 years following a university investigation into her comments during an anti-war campus protest on January 2024 involving two IDF Israeli students who sprayed anti-war demonstrators with a chemical made and used in Israel by the IDF to suppress protests in Palestine. In an interview with Democracy Now! Franke claimed that Israeli students who had served in the Israel Defense Forces "have been known to harass Palestinian and other students on our campus."
Massachusetts Institute of Technology President Sally Kornbluth; although grilled by Stefanik, was spared ouster by the pro-Israel billionaires.
Reports have indicated that approximately 100 USA black sites exist all over the world, including in countries like Poland, Romania, Thailand, Lithuania (site Violet recently in the news, where Kalid Shaik Muhammad was waterboarded), Egypt, Guantanamo, etc. to hide prisoners being held and/or tortured by U.S. military or CIA agents.

Yes, our country has been hijacked by Christian and Jew Zionists and it seems they are controlling the three branches of our government. That is why it is so important to participate in massive acts of civil disobedience. I just remembered the great Howard Zinn telling that humanity began with an act of civil disobedience (the Eden myth) and will finish with an act of civil obedience, the nuclear war started by the politicians.
What a great interview. This needs to be shared to as many people as possible to show them in real terms what slaughter looks like. Thank you
The sadism of the Israelis is even worse than the one of the Nazis. Dying of starvation is much worst than in a gas chamber. Thank you Dr. Feroze Sidhwa and Mr. Hedges for this report. I hope Zionism will collapse soon. The following is the end of a recent Ilan Pape's piece where he analyzes the many points that are indicating the collapse of Zionism:
"Whether people welcome the idea or dread it, the collapse of Israel has become foreseeable. This possibility should inform the long-term conversation about the region’s future. It will be forced onto the agenda as people realize that the century-long attempt, led by Britain and then the US, to impose a Jewish state on an Arab country is slowly coming to an end. It was successful enough to create a society of millions of settlers, many of them now second- and third-generation. But their presence still depends, as it did when they arrived, on their ability to violently impose their will on millions of indigenous people, who have never given up their struggle for self-determination and freedom in their homeland. In the decades to come, the settlers will have to part with this approach and show their willingness to live as equal citizens in a liberated and decolonized Palestine"
