Former hostages Liri Albag, Naama Levy, Agam Berger, and Emily Damari, dreamed and prayed that they would celebrate Chanukah together when they were finally free.
This Chanukah, their wish came true, as they bring so much light to our screens ❤️🩹

🖐️ question: why does bombing Iran's nuclear facilities mean the US has declared war on Iran, yet bombing Yemen a couple months ago was barely a footnote in the news?
This is a real question. I genuinely don't understand the difference.

“I asked chatgpt” and you may ask yourself, "How do I work this?” And you may ask yourself, "Where is that large automobile?" And you may tell yourself, "This is not my beautiful house." And you may tell yourself, "This is not my beautiful wife."
"I asked chatgpt" yeah well I drank a whiskey drink, I drank a vodka drink, I drank a lager drink, I drank a cider drink, I sang the songs that remind me of the good times, I sang the songs that remind me of the better times

Things I cannot overstate enough: left-wing antisemitism isn't fine. Right-wing antisemitism isn't fine. No amount of antisemitism is fine. If you're going to call out the one, you MUST call out the other. Otherwise, you are only using Jews as pawns and that's also antisemitic.

Suppose Bibi had decided to ignore Hamas and tried harder to make peace with the PA. What would happen?
He'd lose the support of his base, he'd probably fail like everyone who tried peace with the PLO had, and Hamas would have started intifadah 3 to prevent it.
Would appreciate your take though

Maybe the perpetrator thought Palestine was actually trapped in the grocery store and could escape through a hole in the glass
According to a police statement, the words "Free Palestine" were written on the brick in large red letters.

This is deeply concerning and totally unacceptable. Acts of violence and intimidation have no place in our communities.
We stand with our Jewish neighbors against antisemitism. Everyone deserves to live, pray, and do business without fear in Massachusetts. www.wcvb.com/article/susp...

Yet another reminder to never, ever, EVER get on Mossad's shit list. The Rube Goldbergian machinations required to execute a plan like this boggles the mind.
🚨CLEARED FOR PUBLICATION: The Mossad established an attack drone base near weapons systems in Iran. The drones were launched in coordination with the start of the Israeli strikes against the Iranian regime and its nuclear sites.

Take a peaceful protest.
Add "Free Palestine."
Tada! You now have a violent protest that gives cover to authoritarians.
Their actions and rhetoric hurt Palestinians and Americans alike.
