Un des meilleurs défenseurs d’Israël pose la question qui dérange

Dennis Prager, cofondateur de PragerU, plateforme américaine connue pour ses vidéos pédagogiques sur les questions politiques, morales et culturelles, pose ici une question simple mais essentielle face aux accusations contre Israël.

À faire écouter à tous ceux qui sont confrontés aux faux récits sur Israël.

[Hen Mazzig @HenMazzig]

Congratulations to the so-called feminist organizations that excluded Israeli women from their march yesterday — the only women in the Middle East with the right to vote, the freedom to dress as they please, pursue careers, love whom they want, and marry on their own terms.

[Kimberly Matheson @Diversity_Prof]

I think this is what my dogs hear at the end of a day too!

I resigned from the American Psychological Association last year after 43 years of membership. Sally Satel ⁦@slsatel⁩ explains the reason - takeover (and ruination) of scholarly & civil-society institutions by illiberal radicals. https://t.co/ingN1WSuLM

Through the noise of yesterday’s crying, of the pain and anguish of people around the world, something even louder came through.

The deafening silence of so many.

The deafening silence of the masses around the world who have been yelling about child deaths in the war in Gaza, but couldn’t care less about the Jewish children murdered by the people who live in Gaza.

The deafening silence of women’s rights groups around the world, who are there to support women who always show up to stand up for rights of women anywhere – everywhere - but couldn’t care less about the rights of the Jewish woman, Shiri Bibas, who was not released as promised.

The deafening silence of celebrities, who repeatedly use their platforms to stand up for what the believe in, to call out what they perceive as injustices in the world, to call for change, but couldn’t care less when those injustices are done to Jewish people. To Jewish children.

The deafening silence of the world leaders around the world, repeatedly accusing Israel of imagined “war crimes”, but are completely silent when actual war crimes are televised for them to see, as they couldn’t care less when war crimes are carried out against Jews.

The deafening silence of the “as-a-Jew” crowd, those people who claim to be Jewish, but support Hamas and the people of Gaza in their terror attacks against Israel, who like to show the world how “virtuous” they are, but refuse to call out the murder of a 9 month old or a 4 month old – because they’re Jews.

The deafening silence of all those who have been yelling for “ceasefire” for 16 months, who claim to want calm in the region, yet don’t say a word when Hamas breaks the ceasefire deal – because they can’t blame the Jews for it.

Are they all Jew-haters? No, although many are driven by their Jew-hatred, I’m sure.

Many are people who have gotten sucked into the propaganda machine, who believe the lies they’ve been told about the situation in the Middle East, who believe Gaza is an “open-air prison”, who believe the mistruths about Israel. And they believe it so completely, that they actually believe that murdering children is “resistance”.

Then there are the ones who may just be trying to “fit in”, who are afraid of speaking out for the murder of two innocent children – because those murdered children are Jewish. Because it may not be popular to speak out against terrorism against Jews. Because in some circles, it might be acceptable and normalized when people terrorize and harm and murder Jews.

The elected officials, who never miss an opportunity to make a statement to grow their voter base, who are always trying to get in front of people, but who can’t be bothered to say a single word, when the victims of terror are Jews.

And, of course, the celebrities. The ones that are Jew-haters, those I expected the silence from. But the others? The others who don’t have hate in their hearts? Who have compassion and empathy and humanity, and who are crying inside when they see the pictures of the Bibas children, and hear the stories of their bodies, but stay quiet because they’re worried they won’t get the next film, or because they’ll lose followers on their social media accounts, or because their “fans” might turn on them for doing the right thing?

The cries of pain, of hurting, of shock, of anger, were thundering.

The silence, was deafening.

"In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends."

- Martin Luther King Jr.

Please share. 🧡

[Kosher @koshercockney]

Wow. Extremely moving speech.
Share everywhere.

“Jews are the canary in the coal mine”
“15 months ago that canary died on Oct 7th”

One of the most important speeches you will see.

If there is one video you should watch today it’s 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙤𝙣𝙚.

Please put aside 20 mins to watch @lauder_ronald at the Holocaust Memorial.

[Kimberly Matheson @Diversity_Prof]

Wow. Well said!

[Hillel Fuld @HilzFuld]

Fantastic. Who is she?!

[Eyal Yakoby @EYakoby]

You’ll notice that not a single women’s rights group has posted about the three female hostages being released.

Moral bankruptcy.

[Kimberly Matheson @Diversity_Prof]

Exactly the confusion and questions so many (but not enough) of us have been trying to comprehend!

[Mor Edge Insight @MorEdge_Insight]

I’m just going to leave this here. As almost always, the phenomenal @Erin_Molan says exactly what needs to be said and how I and many others feel.

I hope everyone watches this, listens very carefully to her words. Because what is happening at the moment is the biggest betrayal of trust in truth, morality and integrity. Western values are at stake and humanity is failing, badly.

…And people accuse Israel of apartheid?

🚨MUST WATCH VIDEO!🚨

[liv @livlayne_]

What does it look like when a movement begins to cannibalize its own supporters? Well, you don’t have to ask, because it’s happening right now. The pro-Palestinian movement has somehow bought into the belief that the only houses burning in California are those of the Hollywood elite—which is ironic, considering the Hollywood elite have been their main blind supporters since day one. But they don’t care about that—all they care about is co-opting and monopolizing other people’s pain for their own cause.

[Jews Fight Back 🇺🇸🇮🇱 @JewsFightBack]

How DARE they call Israel an “apartheid state” while having ZERO understanding of what apartheid really means?

Kenneth Meshoe, who lived through the ACTUAL horrors of apartheid in South Africa, calls this nonsense out for what it is: a disgusting, baseless lie.

It’s time to FIGHT BACK against the slander and libel. SHARE THIS. Let's make it go viral.

[Kimberly Matheson @Diversity_Prof]

Yup, as one of those “female pet owners…”

Chief of Nishnawbe Aski Nation of Ontario speaks on the solidarity between indigenous peoples and Israel, and the need to educate and correct false narratives.

“We believe that your struggle is our struggle…. And probably for all indigenous peoples around the world.”

[Erin Molan @Erin_Molan]

Could Biden have beaten Trump? Is the feminist silence on Afghanistan because Israel can’t be blamed (they’ll try)? Supreme Leader Khamenei calls on the media to be more ‘precise’? 😳 and was my dad a war criminal? This week’s edition of ‘the world has gone bat beep crazy’… 🙏🙌

[David Atherton @daveatherton]

🚨Today's Must Watch🚨

Australian broadcaster @Erin_Molan weighs into yesterday's terror attack in New Orleans where 15 died. She comments the event is no different to those who cheer on Hamas' atrocities.

"You may've chanted from the river to the sea, they will still mow you down."

Far too much content to summarise, do have a watch.

[Jane Pounder @PounderJane1]

Karoline, you are my woman of the year 2024. You are brave, strong and wonderful. I salute you 💙💙💙💙💙💙🇮🇱🇮🇱 @PreislerKa
