Incredible that they need to issue a statement like this.

“At the beginning people took these demonstrations pretty lightly … but now they are seen as evidence of how the progressive camp in liberal democracies can take over the public agenda and use it to attack Israel or whatever Israel does,” said Prof Tamar Hermann, a political scientist at the Israel Democracy Institute in Jerusalem.
“People see that [protesters] put all Israelis in the same basket and [there is] so much false information that even opponents of the [current Israeli] government can’t accept it. They are united in their resentment of these protests abroad.”

I have to believe this juxtaposition was intentional:

accusations that Israel was committing genocide – a staple of chants and posters at recent US protests – had shocked many Israelis, particularly on the left.

More than 34,600 people have died in Gaza in the Israeli military offensive, mostly women and children, according to local health authorities.

But they need to, because American politicians have an IQ of a Potato.

Israel, Germany, France, and Canada - Its part of their counter terrorism division that was expanded to work with foreign countries after 9/11

Oh, so they assume universities have terrorists/potential terrorists and watch them just in case?

They usually have information sharing agreements with other countries. This was a bit priority after 9/11 and continues in the present.

Which is worse, Israel’s lies about Gaza or its western backers who repeat those lies?

Useful idiots keep parroting provably false Israeli talking points. Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me …

Would be quite a statement if Qatar expels Hamas given they don’t have many other countries to go to.

So the Israeli government are in fact not interested in a bonafide ceasefire then. Just staying in power.

I have a few ideas about where they could go. What are yours? You go first.

I can't wait till Blinken tells us again that Hamas is the obstacle when pretty much everyone connected to the negotiations knows that the only obstacle is Netanyahu and his religious fanatics.

I thought ben gvir was just a random terrorist with no influence on Nutty Yahoo's policies

That's hardly news...

We’re at that stage where anything that comes from the US should be immediately dismissed and independently analysed as we do with the Israelis. The US have been fabricating and gaslighting from the start.

And every round is more shameless than the last one. The next one will be extra special because it will be on the back of them signing off on the Rafah massacres.

Imagine the outrage if some muslim country did this. But it's Israel and by the looks of it they can ban media freedom without any fuss.

The incident raised serious concerns inside the Israeli government and sent officials scrambling to understand why the shipment was held, Israeli officials said.

Still find it difficult to understand sometimes why the Western media does so much propaganda for Israel.

Second time I've seen a report saying this, first time was months ago. Hamas wants him out, PA and Israel don't.
Also based on polling he is the one candidate who would comfortably defeat any other Fatah or any Hamas leader in an election.
