    Because she correctly identified it as a genocide…

    St Andrews University’s rector has been removed from her role on the university court in a row over comments she made on the Israel-Gaza war.

    Stella Maris sent an email to all students referring to “genocidal attacks” by the Israeli government, shortly after she was elected in October.

      You can support Israel’s genocide but they cancel the fuck out of you if you oppose it.

      Want to take a guess at the nationality of the complainants? In my opinion it should hold no weight unless multiple people from multiple backgrounds find it offensive.

      This is like the national front complaining about people calling them fascist, then action being taken against them.

    Universities and pro-Netanyahu censorship. Name a more iconic couple, I’ll wait.
