Rav Yaakov Halevi Levitin has been identified as one of the victims of the Bondi Beach shooting.
A rabbi and community leader cut down in his prime in the name of hatred and antisemitism.
Such a senseless tragedy.
May his memory be a blessing.

Denial of violence against Jews is rooted in the antisemitic idea that Jews exaggerate the facts to advance their interests.
Some deny the fact that 6 million Jews were killed by the Nazis, others deny that Jewish babies were beheaded by Hamas.
Same hate.

Washington just vetoed another UN Security Council call for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza.
It's clear: a ceasefire can only come once Hamas is fully dismantled and all the hostages are back home. 🎗

Piers Morgan isn’t just reckless— he’s part of a pipeline turning Hamas propaganda into viral content.
I joined the fearless @SharriMarkson to unpack how this online disinformation fuels rising antisemitism. It isn’t journalism anymore. It’s algorithmic incitement.

600 days ago, Israel wasn’t bombing Gaza.
Hamas was slaughtering innocents and taking hostages.
Critique Israel all you want; I do.
But never forget how this war started, and why it’s still going on.

No one elected DOGE. This is a hostile takeover of our government and national research to benefit Musk's companies and Trump's autocracy.
Hearing now that every National Science Foundation grant is having to go through a new “DOGE review”. So existing grants and long term science and technology research having to undergo review by one of Elon’s interns. Huge percentage not passing their muster.
