@maksim_ioffe @MLNow why did you make Lurie’s comment seem like an isolated event in your story?

@LakeAustinBlvd Only way through is if you’re traveling with a kiddo under 2!

San Francisco will be the first city in California to create new Entertainment Zones, starting with Front Street in Downtown.

This legislation will bring new economic opportunities and vitality to our city by allowing restaurants and bars to sell open beverages during outdoor events.
Thank you Senator @Scott_Wiener for changing state law to allow us to support our small businesses and make San Francisco an even more vibrant place to live and visit.

Stay tuned for more Entertainment Zones news as we work with our partners @UnionSquareSF , Thrive City @ChaseCenter , @HarringtonsBar , @ROYALEXCHANGESF , and Market Street Arts.

@JustLuai Thank you for having the courage to speak out against radical Islam. Inshallah you will stay safe and help open the eyes of some of your brothers, who are my cousins.

Here in America, let us not forget who we are.

We reject all forms of hate, whether it’s against Muslims, Jews, or anyone.

That’s what great nations do—and we are a great nation.

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

The terror and tyranny of Hamas and Putin represent different threats, but they both want to completely annihilate a neighboring democracy.

Let me share with you why this is vital for America’s national security: https://t.co/MoClTKCBCw

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

History has taught us that when terrorists don’t pay the price for their terror or when dictators don’t pay a price for their aggression, they cause more chaos, death, and destruction.

And the costs and threats to America and to the world keep rising.

We must not walk away.

[Hussain Abdul-Hussain @hahussain]

As Arabs, our message to the world cannot be restricted to eliciting global sympathy for the children of Gaza. We cannot depict ourselves as helpless children, behind whom we hide our failure to control our Hamas thugs who massacred 1300 non-combatant Israelis. This is a moral failure that the world sees but that we try to hide behind the “rights of the Palestinian people,” rights that none of us are willing to articulate. Free Palestine can mean anything, from an Arab Palestinian state living in peace next to Jewish Israel to an Arab Palestinian state instead of Jewish Israel.
For Arab Israeli peace to happen, and since Palestinians are either children, or Hamas thugs, or useless corrupt Mahmud Silicon-Face Abbas, non-Palestinian Arabs should step up to save the Palestinians from themselves and save the region ongoing sorrow. We, Arabs, have to show the world that we are at peace with the idea of a Jewish state, that we are willing to concede what we believe – rightly or wrongly -- is ours (1948 territory), that we genuinely want bygones to be bygones, without secretly holding grudges and passing them to our children. We must seek a better future for ourselves and our kids, as well as for Israelis and their kids.
The Palestine disaster (nakba) is not a disaster of land loss or military defeat. It is a disaster of absence of leadership that can articulate the Arab alternative to war and death. We ask the world to stop the Israeli war on Hamas, but what do we offer as an alternative to stopping the war? Just let those Hamas thugs who massacred 1300 Israelis get away with their crime (because there is a history of dispute)? Ask Israel to go back to October 6? Knowing that Hamas can break out of the Gaza fence and repeat its massacre any minute? Hamas must go. We Arabs must help get rid of it, and most importantly, we must show that we have a plan for the day after Hamas.
Let’s learn from the mistake of Iraq and Arab Spring countries, that once what we have is gone, what comes next looks worse. Let’s preempt the worse by offering the better.
As long as we, the Arabs, do not have answers to all these questions, the world will manage things without us. It does not matter if all of us, 1.3 billion Muslims, think that Israel is at fault. What matters is global perception, which clearly thinks that Islamist terrorism is the problem, not Israelis dancing at a music festival. And we, the Arabs, are not even talking to the world. We are talking to each other, patting ourselves on the back for being utopian and principled on Palestine, while we are in fact idiotically out of touch with reality. We insist on our backward message, then act surprised why many of our states are failing and why we are migrating in droves.
Please stop treating Palestine like religion, like we have to stick to our principles to win credit in the afterlife and to garner social acceptance among each other (Arabs and/or Muslims). Please think of Palestine like a problem that requires troubleshooting, compromise, pragmatism, and most importantly, looking toward the future, not the past.

There are moments in this life where pure evil is unleashed on the world – the people of Israel experienced one this past weekend.

This is terrorism.

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

There is no justification for terrorism.

Hamas does not stand for the Palestinian people’s equal right to dignity and self-determination.

They use Palestinian civilians as human shields, and offer nothing but terror and bloodshed with no regard for who pays the price.

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

Let us be clear: There is no place for hate in America.

Not against Jews. Not against Muslims.

What we reject is terrorism. We condemn its indiscriminate evil, just as we have always done.

That is what America stands for.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

All Americans should be horrified and outraged by the brazen terrorist attacks on Israel and the slaughter of innocent civilians. We grieve for those who died, pray for the safe return of those who’ve been held hostage, and stand squarely alongside our ally, Israel, as it dismantles Hamas. As we support Israel’s right to defend itself against terror, we must keep striving for a just and lasting peace for Israelis and Palestinians alike.

@SF311 @LondonBreed Photo is from 22nd Street and Valencia, but the confusing sign appears all along the new Valencia bike lane.

[Edo @Edorious]

Is the Valencia bike lane open or closed @RafaelMandelman and @LondonBreed? #dumbsigns

@RafaelMandelman @SFPD It was 15 moms with smart phones. Why did you leave that detail out?
