If you believe bullying Israeli contestant Yuval Raphael is a noble cause, please watch her interview.
Listen to her story.
This 23-year-old woman hid for 8 hours with a gunshot wound to the leg, lying under dead bodies in a bomb shelter, while Hamas terrorists returned again and again—shooting, throwing grenades, making sure no one survived.
I hope that after watching this video, you’ll better understand what she’s been through, and why she deserves support, compassion, and love.
All she’s asking for is to sing. Let her.

Dear Members of the @PulitzerPrizes board,
My name is Emily Damari. I was held hostage in Gaza for over 500 days.
On the morning of October 7, I was at home in my small studio apartment in Kibbutz Kfar Aza when Hamas terrorists burst in, shot me and dragged me across the border into Gaza. I was one of 251 men, women, children, and elderly people kidnapped that day from their beds, their homes, and a music festival.
For almost 500 days I lived in terror. I was starved, abused, and treated like I was less than human. I watched friends suffer. I watched hope dim. And even now, after returning home, I carry that darkness with me - because my best friends, Gali and Ziv Berman are still being held in the Hamas terror tunnels.
So imagine my shock and pain when I saw that you awarded a Pulitzer Prize to Mosab Abu Toha.
This is a man who, in January, questioned the very fact of my captivity. He posted about me on Facebook and asked, “How on earth is this girl called a hostage?” He has denied the murder of the Bibas family. He has questioned whether Agam Berger was truly a hostage. These are not word games - they are outright denials of documented atrocities.
You claim to honor journalism that upholds truth, democracy, and human dignity. And yet you have chosen to elevate a voice that denies truth, erases victims, and desecrates the memory of the murdered.
Do you not see what this means? Mosab Abu Toha is not a courageous writer. He is the modern-day equivalent of a Holocaust denier. And by honoring him, you have joined him in the shadows of denial.
This is not a question of politics. This is a question of humanity. And today, you have failed it.
Tsahi Idan’s family was just notified that his body is expected to be returned home tonight. They held on to hope for 509 days.
Do not shield your eyes from this last image of Tsahi. Moments before, his 18-year-old daughter, Maayan was shot by terrorists and died in his arms. They took his wife Gali’s phone and livestreamed the horrors from her Facebook page to all her friend. The family was huddled on the kitchen floor, covered in Maayan's blood, this kids asking "are they killing us? are they killing us"?
It shouldn’t end this way. Please never forget Tsahi and Maayan.
Who knew that the world’s outrage over antisemitism would not come from Islamist fascists kidnapping, raping, & killing Jewish women with a pledge to do it 1000 times more, but from a Zionist man doing an awkward hand gesture because you don’t align with his American politics.
A reminder of where this all started.
“Hamas didn’t just kill people. They didn’t just kidnap people. They murdered the prospects for peace in its bed, while it was sleeping.”
@adammaanit
Israel asked for two child hostages under the age of 5 after they were taken captive by Hamas.
The Palestinians asked for a man who raped an 18 year old girl, beheaded her, and was celebrated for it.
There is no better example of the difference between the two sides.
Today marks the 10th anniversary of the Charlie Hebdo attack, where Islamist gunmen killed 12 people in response to the magazine's controversial cartoons.
So, naturally, we should all share the cartoons on X, highlighting the importance of free speech and the right to satire.
So we let people from illiberal societies into a European country and then we demand its citizens change their behaviour not to upset or antagonize the new arrivals?
Sounds reasonable 🥳
