This has nothing to do with the "openness of social media". I share the concern that has been expressed about the situation in Gaza, and condemn the actions both of the Israeli government and Hamas. But for the past few weeks all of my social media feeds have been dominated by a discussion of the Middle East that is blinkered, reductive and hateful. I'd quite like it if my work email was the one place where I can get away from it. It's not too much to ask that an email list dedicated to academic study of media and communication be just that, is it?

This is not in order to censor her or demean her, but simply in order to gauge whether it’s actually worth engaging with her. In my view, it’s not. As far as I’m concerned, the most interesting contributions to this debate have been those which have put the current situation into its long historical context, and which have also stressed its intense complexity. But what we are repeatedly getting from Dr Bardach-Yelov, and which is threatening to run a very valuable debate into a cul-de-sac, are the product of what appears to be a totally closed mind and an expression of exactly the same bunker mentality as that of the Israeli politicians that we encounter every day in the British media. I would suggest there is no more point in trying to engage such people in a sensible, rational debate than there is in trying to persuade the flat earth brigade that the planet is in fact round.  Dr Bardach-Yalov has managed to pull off the extremely difficult feat of making even the BBC coverage of Gaza look relatively ‘balanced’ by comparison with her entirely one-sided view of the situation, and I suspect that she has given us a glimpse of the kind of endless barrage which the BBC and ITN will be receiving from Israelis absolutely convinced that British broadcasters are  daily pumping out floods of anti-Israel and pro-Hamas propaganda. Anybody who criticises Israel’s actions, and especially when it comes to its relationship with the Palestinians, is liable to be deluged with the kind of stuff which Dr Bardach-Yelov is churning out – indeed, with far, far worse – but I must admit to being rather surprised at encountering it in this context.

You need to admit that Israel is occupying and looting Palestinian lands, destroying their homes, illegally blockading the Gaza Strip, unjustly put people in prison including children, targeting hospitals and disabled care homes, and unlawful implementing continuing and discriminate attacks. About 1300 civilians killed, 40% children, and thwarting any peace efforts and many other criminal acts. What do you expect? You are very lucky to have a shelter to hide but but Palestinians don't have one. For several times, UN schools used as shelters have been targeted - including one today killing more than 20 people. Please don't give us any 'moral' lessons and only blame your illegal terrorist government.

Perhaps she doesn’t know these facts because the Israeli Broadcasting Authority banned the human rights organisation B’Tselem from broadcasting a paid-for advert on Israeli Radio which listed the names of the dead children. The thing is, Elina, that the rest of the world has seen the list of names of these dead children, and we have seen pictures of them.  Many of them were babies. We have also seen the pictures of the thousands of traumatised and injured children in Gaza. Have you read Gideon Levy yet?

You need to admit that Israel is occupying and looting Palestinian  lands, destroying their homes, illegally blockading the Gaza Strip, unjustly put people in prison including children, targeting hospitals and disabled care homes, and unlawful implementing continuing and discriminate attacks. About 1300 civilians killed, 40% children, and thwarting any peace efforts and many other criminal acts. What do you expect? You are very lucky to have a shelter to hide but but Palestinians don't have one. For several times, UN schools used as shelters have been targeted - including one today killing more than 20 people. Please don't give us any 'moral' lessons and only blame your illegal terrorist government.

>> Stuart is quite correct, and participants in this debate have a perfect right to enquire exactly where Dr Bardach-Yalov is coming from, and to draw certain conclusions from what they discover. This is not in order to censor her or demean her, but simply in order to gauge whether it’s actually worth engaging with her. In my view, it’s not. As far as I’m concerned, the most interesting contributions to this debate have been those which have put the current situation into its long historical context, and which have also stressed its intense complexity. But what we are repeatedly getting from Dr Bardach-Yelov, and which is threatening to run a very valuable debate into a cul-de-sac, are the product of what appears to be a totally closed mind and an expression of exactly the same bunker mentality as that of the Israeli politicians that we encounter every day in the British media. I would suggest there is no more point in trying to engage such people in a sensible, rational debate than there is in trying to persuade the flat earth brigade that the planet is in fact round.  Dr Bardach-Yalov has managed to pull off the extremely difficult feat of making even the BBC coverage of Gaza look relatively ‘balanced’ by comparison with her entirely one-sided view of the situation, and I suspect that she has given us a glimpse of the kind of endless barrage which the BBC and ITN will be receiving from Israelis absolutely convinced that British broadcasters are  daily pumping out floods of anti-Israel and pro-Hamas propaganda. Anybody who criticises Israel’s actions, and especially when it comes to its relationship with the Palestinians, is liable to be deluged with the kind of stuff which Dr Bardach-Yelov is churning out – indeed, with far, far worse – but I must admit to being rather surprised at encountering it in this context.

>> Although individuals can act in more than one capacity, many of which combine and overlap (citizen, academic, parent, etc.), the unease felt by many on the list can be attributed to the conviction that other functions ('advisor', 'propagandist', etc.) tend to undermine the participant's credibility, at the point at which she describes anything beyond her immediate situation

>>

>> This is not an argument about the corrosive effect of 'bias' or conviction (which as we know can be attributed to many individuals) but about the role of current or ex-state functionaries. A functionary can still act in another capacity - as a witness for example - and may produce some useful insights, but it is the ability of such a person to offer a balanced assessment of the larger context that is in doubt

>> You can play the role of the victim as much as you want but won't be able to mislead us. You need to admit that Israel is occupying and looting Palestinian lands, destroying their homes, illegally blockading the Gaza Strip, unjustly put people in prison including children, targeting hospitals and disabled care homes, and unlawful implementing continuing and discriminate attacks. About 1300 civilians killed, 40% children, and thwarting any peace efforts and many other criminal acts. What do you expect? You are very lucky to have a shelter to hide but but Palestinians don't have one. For several times, UN schools used as shelters have been targeted - including one today killing more than 20 people. Please don't give us any 'moral' lessons and only blame your illegal terrorist government.

> Sometimes I wonder if the Israeli society in general is connected to a central electronic brain that got froze on the word terrorism. Unable to look beyond that, the Israeli government adopted the ''repeat it, somebody might believe'' principle.

>

> In the end of the day what matters the most is how Palestinians actually view Hamas and the other factions. May I remind you that Hamas is a natural output of the Israeli occupation?! You might not agree on their methods and approach, but in the eyes of every Palestinian Hamas is a fully legitimate anti-occupation movement. Same as was PLO and Fatah - which by the way were and occasionally - up to Israel's liking - still are a bunch of terrorists. For Israel, to simply resist turns you into a terrorist.

> If you have any other options for Palestinians to rid themselves of the occupation, I am all ears. the 20+ years fruitless peace process doesn't qualify as a solution.

You might not agree on their methods and approach, but in the eyes of every Palestinian Hamas is a fully legitimate anti-occupation movement. Same as was PLO and Fatah - which by the way were and occasionally - up to Israel's liking - still are a bunch of terrorists. For Israel, to simply resist turns you into a terrorist.

> This is extraordinary and bizarre.  Why censor a conversation that many people are interested in?  I agree that personal attacks are not helpful but surely as a group of academics we can sort of the ad hominem attacks for the good stuff?  Even if only a handful more people have read Judith Butlers piece (circulated  earlier) we will have done a little to move discussion away from mudslinging to a consideration of the complexity of the situation.

> I have been involved in discussions on another forum this week in which I was the only person speaking up for the Palestinians and, yes its painful to be attacked, specially when so much of the attack is ill thought through and illogical. I chose in the end to withdraw - that was my choice.  I did't try to stop the others talking.  As scholars in the field of Communications we must surely be trusted to talk to one another on this sensitive subject without the need of a ‘nanny’.
