The University of Minnesota has paused the hiring of Israeli scholar Raz Segal to head the institution’s Holocaust and Genocide school over his principled position that Israel is perpetrating a genocide.
Truly reprehensible.

At a time when the fuckedest up of all Israelis dominate the news, salute to a real one. Also, I love that police crackdowns on pro-ceasefire demonstrations are “anti-Israel encampments” that “turned violent.” [note: I don’t actually love that]

Clearly the error was hiring a Holocaust scholar who would try to apply historical studies to current events. Maybe there’s some other variety.

Oops sorry, we were looking for the kind of genocide expert who only recognises them after they've already finished!

This implies that the University of Minnesota supports the genocide of the Palestinian people. Do I have that right?

Perhaps the university decided that someone who represents Israel’s stated intentions of rescuing the remaining hostages and dismantling the terrorist organisation responsible as "genocide" isn't well suited to teaching students about genocide aftar all.

So what who are they trying to kid? If all that’s required is to follow what the governing board tells you… then you don’t need an expert on the subject. If you need an expert but you don’t like his/hers findings then you’re a genocide denier
