Clearly a disgrace and it's an indictment of Israeli media that it took so long, but the question is why now and does it indicate a shift.. we'll see.

e.g. ch 12 interviewed two days ago an American surgeon who came from Gaza on his experiences there. First time something like this is aired on Israeli TV in 19 months.
The last few days I noticed, for the first time since October 7 2023, mainstream Israeli news websites reporting on the humanitarian situation in Gaza.

Throughout the campaign I constantly had to deal with a double standard where Dems were accused of being weak on Israel and Antisemitism, when they are objectively so much better. Trump’s recent links of details of Israeli war plans are just another example.

And here’s a little something extra from @axios.com about today’s White House shit show “Another small but not insignificant factor that irritated Trump — Zelensky didn't wear a suit. Trump's advisers had told Zelensky's team several times that he should wear a suit to the White House.” Really?

Donald Trump’s unhinged rhetoric is making Americans less safe at home and abroad.
Trump's Gaza comments hand jihadist terrorists a 'rallying cry,' experts say
“This kind of language only is going to galvanize groups that want to kill Americans,” said former CIA officer Marc Polymeropoulos.

NEWS --> Dems fear a Defense Department IG review of Elon Musk's flouting of security protocol as a big recipient of Pentagon contracts is now dead under Trump. DOD launched the probe in 2024, but then Trump fired DOD's IG, so what happened to that probe?

Did Trump Quietly Kill a Sensitive Pentagon Probe into Elon Musk?
The New York Times revealed last year that Musk and SpaceX failed to meet federal reporting requirements for Pentagon contractors. No one has asked: What’s going on with that today?

The ADL under Jonathan Greenblatt has cynically sold out the Jews it claims to represent in favor of Trump, Musk, and Netanyahu. It's shameful and undignified and a betrayal of the organization's early history, I argue in my debut for @zeteo.com
What Antisemitism? The ADL Prostrated to Musk and Trump
To defend Israel, Jonathan Greenblatt’s Anti-Defamation League is willing to turn a blind eye to the growth of fascism on the right.

Mainstream Jewish organizations not only engage in terribly ineffective Hasbara. They also make Jewish people easy marks for con-men like Musk and Trump
-Reinstated Nazis on his platform
-Publicly endorsed a German neo-Nazi party
-Routinely amplifies ideas and talking points from Nazis
-Publicly demonized Jewish organizations that have criticized the above

You’re going to hear from people that Elon Musk did the Roman salute here and that’s true, he’s done it before.

But that’s NOT exculpatory.

The Roman salute was adopted by Mussolini and Italian fascists.

It was then adopted by Hitler and the Nazis.
