We're in a great place in society when Doctors Without Borders are being labeled as "terrorists" for trying to aid a population under genocide, and media just nods along in agreement.
Israel says it will suspend several humanitarian groups, including Doctors Without Borders, in 2026 for failing its new vetting rules for groups working in Gaza. Some international organizations have said that Israel’s rules are arbitrary and could endanger staff.

Praying for his full & speedy recovery.

And so deeply inspired by his example.

Horrific news emerging from Sydney.

A murderous attack on its Jewish community as they meet to celebrate Hanukkah.

Antisemitism is never acceptable in any form - this is unbridled hate at its absolute worst.

Please hold the Jewish community in your thoughts and in your hearts.
