#US / Columbia Journalism School Faculty condemns Press Freedom threats, including detention of Gaza Genocide critics​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Columbia Journalism School faculty have issued a statement warning that press freedom in America is under threat, citing the detention without charges of graduate Mahmoud Khalil, deportation attempts against Palestinian journalist Mosab Abu Toha who reported on Gaza, and the administration's aggressive use of libel lawsuits against media organizations including #CBS, the #Pulitzer committee, and the Des Moines Register.

These actions create a climate of fear for 13 million green card holders and over one million international students who may now self-censor, alongside concerning developments like the Washington Post limiting editorial content and the administration hand-picking journalists for White House access.

The faculty calls for steadfast opposition to the intimidation, harassment, and detention of individuals based on their speech or journalism to protect First Amendment principles essential to democracy.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

"unparalleled attack on the rule of law" not seen "since the days of McCarthyism,"

The United States has been added to the Civicus Monitor Watchlist, which identifies countries experiencing rapid decline in civic freedoms. The US joins the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Italy, Pakistan and Serbia on the first watchlist of 2025.

Quoting Jimmy Wales: “Every time Elon tweets his nonsense, we get a surge in donations, and no wonder, Wikipedia is the antidote to his brand of sloppy misinformation, and the public knows it.”

He clearly doesn't read the Hebrew [Zionist] Wikipedia, which is exactly that, but nonetheless. This, for example, will sound familiar to anyone who's been involved in editing the Hebrew Wikipedia:

In early 2024, Wikipedia's Arbitration Committee conducted an investigation that resulted in three editors being banned from the platform for their involvement in a pro-Israel campaign. According to the article, this coordinated effort began shortly after October 7, when an editor who had previously been removed from Wikipedia started emailing others with instructions to modify Gaza war-related pages, including articles about crimes against Israel, human shields, and the 2001 Beit Rima raid in the West Bank. On October 16, one of these editors sent an email—which was reviewed by Bloomberg News—urging colleagues working on Palestine-Israel articles to vote against an article that described the Gaza war as a "genocide" started by Israel. The email explicitly called for the article to be "deleted or merged" while labeling the page's editors as "propagandists" and describing the article itself as "ridiculous."

Crimes de ódio, racismo e islamofobia são protegidos na prática por autoridades na Alemanha, à medida que juízes abordam casos contra a comunidade islâmica e outras diásporas com evidente preconceito, reportou Mehmet Osman Gulyesil, pesquisador da Faculdade de Direito da Universidade de Humboldt em Berlim.

As informações são da agência de notícias Anadolu.

Segundo Gulyesil, ataques islamofóbicos “são deliberadamente encobertos por estruturas racistas na força policial e outras da Alemanha”.

“Ataques contra muçulmanos são frequentemente tratados como crimes ordinários”, argumentou. “É fundamental mencionar a crise institucional vivenciada pelas forças policiais nos últimos anos”.

Segundo Gulyesil, uma das principais estratégias da extrema-direita, em ascensão na Alemanha, é “se infiltrar em instituições de Estado sensíveis”, como polícia, exército e judiciário.

O pesquisador apontou que o grupo terrorista Clandestinidade Nacional-Socialista (NSU), de caráter neonazista, foi efetivamente absolvido do assassinato de ao menos dez pessoas pertencentes a minorias étnicas entre 2000 e 2007.

Oito de suas vítimas tinham ascendência turca.

“Boletins de ocorrência costumam omitir casos penais”, acrescentou Gulyesil. “Tentam retratar os perpetradores como se não pertencessem a grupos neonazistas, mas sim como se estivessem em confronto com turcos ou muçulmanos”.

Para o pesquisador, tais práticas sugerem a presença endêmica de figuras racistas e islamofóbicas no âmago da polícia alemã.

Gulyesil reiterou que as liberdades da minoria islâmica estão sob ameaça no campo institucional, ao ponto de alguns posicionamentos de juízes alcançarem “termos inaceitáveis”.

“Vemos atitudes escandalosas a partir de perguntas feitas por autoridades sobre o Islã”, comentou Gulyesil, ao apontar que juízes e policiais parecem incapazes de realizar avaliações independentes da crença ou etnia das pessoas envolvidas.

Neste sentido, decisões controversas surgem de “motivações racistas”.

Incidentes continuam a crescer devido à falta de uma instituição capaz de representar a minoria islâmica na sociedade alemã, à medida que as autoridades mantêm esforços repressivos à liberdade de assembleia e culto, ao atacar mesquitas e organizações.

“Embora o Islã seja a maior minoria religiosa na Alemanha, não há representação especial em nível federal, para combater a islamofobia e propor medidas necessárias. A falta de uma instituição que represente os cidadãos muçulmanos é um enorme problema”, concluiu Gulyesil.

Scottish Government issues 'protest' statement ahead of #Glasgow '#FarRight' rally promoted by Tommy Robinson

By Alistair Grant
Published 2nd Aug 2024

"The Scottish Government has warned the right to peaceful protest should not be used to justify hateful or violent behaviour ahead of a planned rally in Glasgow promoted by #TommyRobinson. A '#ProUK rally' has been planned for the city’s George Square on September 7, with the English Defence League (#EDL) founder, whose real name is #StephenYaxleyLennon, posting about the event on social media.

"It follows violence in #Southport, Merseyside, this week after the killings of three young girls in a knife attack. Police said the scenes were sparked by supporters of the #farright claiming those present backed the EDL – although the organisation has not existed for around a decade.

"Police across the country are bracing for more protests following the Southport stabbing attack, as one force said disorder 'simply will not be tolerated'.

"The Muslim Council of Britain said hundreds of mosques were strengthening their security and putting in place protective measures ahead of more planned protests. There are fears Islamic places of worship could be targeted during demonstrations expected to take place over the weekend.

"A Police Scotland spokesperson said: 'The unacceptable violent disorder witnessed in other parts of the United Kingdom this week does not constitute peaceful protest. There is no current intelligence indicating similar incidents are likely in #Scotland, but we will continue to monitor developments.'

"Mr Yaxley-Lennon shared a post on social media that said the Glasgow event would coincide with 'other pro-UK rallies'. The post said the event would be a 'peaceful protest to share our distrust and fear of the future'.

"Mr Yaxley-Lennon did not indicate whether he planned to attend, tweeting only: 'The British are rising.' Mr Yaxley-Lennon is the subject of an arrest warrant after leaving the country shortly before a major legal case against him."

NEO-NAZIS ACCUSED IN LONDON RIOTS

July 5, 1981
New York Times

[...] "The trouble apparently began when two busloads of #skinheads arrived in #Southall, not far from Heathrow Airport, for a rock concert given by a skinhead group in the Hambrough pub.

"Southall has a large #Indian and #Pakistani population, and the skinheads have provided many recruits for the #whitesupremacist #NationalFront organization.

"Many Britons were shocked today as they watched television, waiting for the start of the men's Wimbledon tennis final, to see film of a pitched battle in the London streets, with fire engines and police vans burning along with buildings.

"The police said they had no evidence that the white youths were members of the National Front, a small extremist group that has been accused of #neonazism but local officials said they were sure that the front was involved.

"'The skinheads were wearing National Front gear, #swastikas everywhere, and National Front written on their jackets,' said a spokesman for the Southall Youth Association. 'They sheltered behind the police barricades and threw stones at the crowd. Instead of arresting them, the police just pushed them back. It's not surprising people started to retaliate."

#Ukraine #RusichSSRG #LegalAction #NeoNazism

Oleksiy Milchakov, commander of the Rusich SSRG, has filed a lawsuit against the Foreign Ministry following the unauthorized use of his image in a brochure titled 'Ukraine: The Center of World Nazism - 50 Shades of Brown.' The brochure implicated Milchakov as a supporter of National Socialism, sparking controversy and legal action. Despite denial of involvement in its production by Foreign Ministry representatives, Milchakov's lawsuit aims to address the defamation caused by the brochure's distribution. The case is set for an interview on April 18th, shedding light on the complex ties between military factions and nationalist ideologies in Ukraine's conflict.

@Radical_EgoCom How many millions have Neo Nazis killed? How many billions have Neo Nazis terrorized?

In most parts of the world you can not only criticize but say the vilest things about Neo Nazism, fact based or figment of imagination and no one will bat an eye.

You try and criticize say - Islam, based on facts and you will have to live in fear for the rest of your life. So yes, I agree the two are "clearly not the same" and MCI is possible more dangerous than #NeoNazism

Strange…

„In a letter to Israel's foreign minister, leaders of the European Jewish Congress and the Council of Swedish Jewish Communities warned against allying with the Sweden Democrats who, according to the letter, 'claim to be our allies' while advocating that 'Jews cannot be Swedes.' The party has roots in neo-Nazi and antisemitic ideologies.“

Politicians from Germany’s far-right Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) party, including a personal aide to its leader Alice Weidel, met the head of the rightwing extremist Identitarian Movement and neo-Nazi activists to discuss a “masterplan” for mass deportations in the event of the party coming to power, it has been reported.

#USA #GOP House resolution 894: Ultra orthodox Jewish anti-Zionism, for example, is an anti-messianic act which evidently not antisemitic ... good point

Rep. Jerry Nadler: "The GOP has shown themselves fundamentally unserious…[they] carefully avoided mentioning any of the obvious instances of anti-semitism coming from their own leaders…the resolution implicitly compares some peaceful protestors with the January 6 rioters."
