[Oliver Varhelyi @OliverVarhelyi]

The scale of terror and brutality against #Israel and its people is a turning point.

There can be no business as usual.

As the biggest donor of the Palestinians, the European Commission is putting its full development portfolio under review, worth a total of EUR 691m

[Oliver Varhelyi @OliverVarhelyi]

The foundations for peace, tolerance and co-existence must now be addressed.

Incitement to hatred, violence and glorification of terror have poisoned the minds of too many.

We need action and we need it now.

[American Jewish Committee @AJCGlobal]

🤝 Thank you, President @ZelenskyyUa, for your unwavering support for Israel in the face of terror.

Your words resonate with people worldwide who value peace and security. 🇮🇱🇺🇦

[Kenneth Roth @KenRoth]

Indiscriminately firing rockets at civilian areas is as much a war crime when Hamas does it in Israel as when Russia does it in Ukraine. https://t.co/qTOTVskOV8

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

Horrible news from Israel. My condolences go out to everyone who lost relatives or close ones in the terrorist attack. We have faith that order will be restored and terrorists will be defeated.

Terror should have no place in the world, because it is always a crime, not just against a specific country or this terror’s victims, but against humanity in general and our entire world.

Anyone who resorts to terror commits a crime against the world. Whoever finances terror is committing a crime against the world. The world must stand united and in solidarity so that terror does not attempt to break or subjugate life anywhere and at any moment.

Israel's right to self-defense is unquestionable.

All details surrounding this terrorist assault must be revealed so that the world knows and holds accountable everyone who supported and helped carry out the attack.

All Ukrainian citizens who remain in the risk zone must carefully obey all orders issued by local security services and remain vigilant. Please be cautious. The Ukrainian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and our embassy in Israel are ready to assist in any situation.

To support Ukrainians in Israel, we established an operational headquarters. If you require assistance, please contact any of our diplomatic or consular offices in any convenient and accessible manner.

Every life is valuable! We condemn all forms of terrorism.

[Jim Sciutto @jimsciutto]

Nothing “military” about this - straight-up terror attack, with civilians as the explicit target. Of course, we’ve witnessed this from Hamas for years but the scale and brutality of this is unprecedented.

[American Jewish Committee @AJCGlobal]

We stand in total solidarity with the people of Israel following a massive, unprovoked attack by Hamas.

Dozens of terrorists infiltrated Israel in the early hours of Saturday, storming communities and homes, kidnapping and murdering civilians.

At least 22 people have been killed, with hundreds more injured, many in critical condition.

More than 2,500 rockets were fired into southern and central Israel, putting millions of Israelis at risk.

All Israelis have been called up to defend their country, including AJC staff.

Israel has every right to defend itself against these deplorable attacks. 🇮🇱

[Rep. Brad Schneider @RepSchneider]

The US stands in solidarity and strength with our ally Israel—with our families & friends—as they are attacked by Hamas. Hamas has started a war with terrorist attacks targeting civilian communities with rockets and infiltrations, as well as reportedly taking prisoners into Gaza

[StopAntisemitism @StopAntisemites]

ACTION ALERT🚨- antisemites are being given a stage at UPenn during the holiest time of the year for the Jewish people and YOUR help is needed!

The 'Palestine Writes Literature' Festival is an annual event claiming it's "dedicated to celebrating and promoting cultural productions of Palestinian writers and artists."

BUT contrary to the artistic and peaceful image it portrays, the festival provides a platform for individuals with linked to US-designated Palestinian terrorist organizations like the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) and Hamas and individuals with histories of atrocious antisemitism.

Let's unpack some of the speakers:

1. Refaat Alareer - often shares antisemitic content and incites the murder of Jews, claiming "most Jews are evil"

2. Marc Lamont Hill - fired from CNN over his antisemitism and stated a terrorist who killed 2 Jews was wrongfully convicted

3. Roger Water (speaking on Kol Nidre📷 - repeatedly promots antisemitic conspiracy theories of “Jewish power” and the “Jewish lobby”

4. Wisam Rafeedie - PFLP member who praises the murder of Jewish children

5. Salman Abusitta - stated “Zionism’s investment in Nazi crimes aims to justify its crimes in Palestine before and after Nazism."

U Penn has received hundreds of millions of dollars in public funds. Why are U.S. tax payers footing the bill for U Penn giving a stage to Jew haters?

What can YOU do? Email UPenn President Liz Magill: [email protected] and urge her to remove these speakers from the event OR move it off campus.

[Alderman Debra Silverstein @50thWardChicago]

On Thursday, we will introduce CHI vs Hate, a new initiative to combat the mounting wave of hate crimes in our city. Hate is at a 30 year high in Chicago. This ordinance will give our city the means to track hate from its foundation and prevent it from escalating into violence.
