Trump abandoned the Kurds, the Afghans, the Ukrainians, and the Iranians. Today, he is abandoning the Israelis (and their Arab allies). I have been saying so, and writing so, for years. But I have never been so saddened to be proved right.

La gauche hypocrite

النائبة الفرنسيّة-الفلسطينيّة اليساريّة ريما حسن خلال زيارتها السابقة إلى لبنان، وهي تقف أمام لوحة لقدوتها ومثلها الأعلى ياسر عرفات في السفارة الفلسطينيّة في بيروت.
النائبة حسن التي تحاضرنا صباح مساء عن الإنسانيّة وحقوق الإنسان ونصرة المظلومين، تُبدي إعجاباً كبيراً برجل ارتكب مجازر ضدّ لبنانيّين مسيحيّين. لكن الضحايا هنا مسيحيّون، ومبادئ حقوق الإنسان لا تُطبّق عليهم على ما يبدو.

Kudüs’ü yönetmeyi hayal eden ve tehditler savuran Türkiye İçişleri Bakanı’na şunu söylüyorum:

Kudüs, Konstantinopolis değildir ve İsrail Devleti de çökmekte olan bir Haçlı İmparatorluğu değildir. İsrail, her türlü tehdide karşı kendini savunma kapasitesini kanıtlamış güçlü ve kararlı bir devlettir.

Kudüs, 3.000 yıldır Yahudi halkının başkentidir ve sonsuza dek İsrail’in başkenti olmaya devam edecektir. Siz ve Erdoğan’ın hayalini kurduğu Osmanlı İmparatorluğu ise çökmüştür ve bir daha asla geri dönmeyecektir.

Ne yazık ki, Türkiye’yi modern bir devlete dönüştürmek için çalışan Atatürk’ün mirasından hiçbir ders çıkarmadınız; aksine, Türkiye’yi yeniden karanlık ve geri kalmış bir döneme sürüklemek için çalışıyorsunuz.

Unpopular opinion: the French conquest of Algeria was entirely morally justified. Algeria was a criminal state that lived off robbing and enslaving Europeans and Americans. The war put an end to its massive slave trade and piracy operation. This is a good thing.

In 1979, the mullahs tortured the Shah's favourite horse to death.

The horse, Azar, was paraded in the streets. They broke his legs, cut his tongue out, and then shot him in the head in front of a large crowd.

📊 U.S. billion-dollar startup companies founded by immigrants from different countries, normalized by population (founders per 100 million inhabitants).

Israel 🇮🇱 and Lebanon 🇱🇧 stand out as the top 2 countries in producing founders of U.S. billion-dollar startups. Their exceptional performance highlights a strong culture of entrepreneurship, ambition, adaptability, and innovation that far exceeds what their population size would suggest.

I remember 5 years ago... how common it was for "Palestinians" to come on my live & tell me they were "the descendants of the Philistines," only to find out that would make them European invaders (so they stopped saying that)

Then they said Jebusites and when they realized that made no sense, they just started calling themselves the original Jews.

Now... NOW they are saying they come from a people before Jews even existed!

[FJ @Natsecjeff]

The only thing stopping President Trump from throwing all the blame of the failure at Israel's doorstep is his ego. He cannot admit that he had no plan and it was always the Israelis who came up with a plan. And everyone was trusting that plan. Until President Trump started foiling that plan, piece by piece, until there was no plan. All thanks to poor judgment and misguided advice. That's where we stand right now.

[facts about @destinationXIX]

One of the biggest problems in discussions about Israel is that most people have never heard of the Cairo Geniza.

And yet it may be one of the most devastating pieces of evidence against many of the myths surrounding the conflict.

The Cairo Geniza was a storage room in a synagogue in Egypt where Jews deposited old documents for nearly a thousand years. When scholars finally examined its contents, they discovered roughly 300,000 manuscript fragments dating from the 9th to the 19th centuries.

Not religious texts - Real life:
Letters.
Contracts.
Tax receipts.
Court cases.
Business records.
Marriage agreements.
Personal correspondence.

In other words, not propaganda.
Not nationalist history.
Not modern politics.
The actual paperwork of ordinary people living a thousand years ago.

And what does it show?
First, it destroys the claim that Jews are foreign colonists with no historical connection to the land.

The Geniza contains countless references to Jewish communities in Jerusalem, Hebron, Tiberias, Safed, Ramle, Acre, and other towns throughout the Land of Israel.

Before the twentieth century.
Before Herzl.
Before Zionism.

Centuries before any of those things existed.

The documents show Jewish pilgrims traveling to Jerusalem, donations being sent to Jewish communities there, rabbis corresponding with scholars in the land, and families moving between Egypt and the Land of Israel.

The connection never disappeared.
It never had to be "invented."

Second, it shows that Jewish identity remained tied to the land even after centuries of exile.

The Jews of Cairo, Baghdad, Yemen, Morocco, and Spain did not view Jerusalem as some distant historical curiosity.

They viewed it as the center of their civilization.

A place they prayed toward.
A place they supported financially.
A place many hoped to return to.
Long before modern nationalism was invented.

Third, it destroys the fantasy that Jews and Muslims lived in some utopian age of perfect coexistence before Zionism arrived and ruined everything.

The Geniza records periods of cooperation and prosperity.
But it also records jizya taxes, discrimination, legal inequality, extortion, restrictions, persecution, and the vulnerability of Jewish communities living as dhimmis under Islamic rule.
The reality of a subordinate minority.

Forth, the Geniza also challenges another popular myth: that Hebrew was a "dead language" resurrected out of nowhere by Zionists.

The Geniza contains countless Hebrew documents - letters, contracts, legal rulings, religious texts, poetry, and correspondence between communities separated by thousands of miles.

For centuries, Jews used Hebrew as a common civilizational language connecting communities from Morocco to Iraq and from Yemen to Jerusalem.

Eliezer Ben-Yehuda did not resurrect a dead language. He transformed an ancient, continuously used literary and religious language into a modern spoken one.

The Cairo Geniza proves that Hebrew never disappeared. It evolved, adapted, and survived long before modern Zionism emerged.

Fifth, it reminds us how sparsely populated and underdeveloped much of the region was before modern times.

The Land of Israel was not some densely populated "Palestinian" nation-state waiting to emerge. It was part of a larger Ottoman and earlier Islamic world, with small communities of Muslims, Christians, Jews, Druze, Bedouins, and others living across the region, that was vastly abandoned.

Perhaps most importantly, the Geniza reveals something that infuriates modern anti-Zionists:

The Jews never left history.
The Jewish people did not disappear from the land.
They did not forget Jerusalem.
They did not suddenly arrive from Europe one day and invent a connection.

The connection is documented continuously across centuries by the people who actually lived it.

It proves that the story told by activists - that European Jews arrived in a foreign land with no roots there - is historically indefensible.

The Cairo Geniza is thousands of voices speaking across a millennium.

And together they tell a story that modern ideologues desperately wish did not exist:
The Jewish connection to the Land of Israel was not created by Zionism.
Zionism was created because that connection never died.

Bibi ceded Israeli sovereignty twice today and it's only 9 PM. First, when he let the Haredim reject Israeli laws and authority unchallenged, second when he promised Trump he will let Hezbollah's attack on Israeli cities go unchallenged. You don't get more Israel Last than that.

How the Farhud ended

The Farhud pogrom in Baghdad was stopped on the afternoon of June 2, 1941, by a combination of the newly installed Iraqi government & British military forces

The violence was brought to an end through the following actions:

Iraqi Curfew and Crackdown: The Mayor of Baghdad and police loyal to the monarchy imposed a strict curfew starting at 5:00 PM, with orders to shoot violators on sight.

British Intervention: Iraqi troops entered the city and reestablished control, while British forces—who had been waiting on the outskirts of the city—finally moved in.

Historians note that the delayed entry of British troops has remained a controversial subject, with some accounts pointing to a deliberate delay by the British Ambassador, Kinahan Cornwallis, despite orders to secure the city.

The Jews of Greece✡️🇬🇷

Greece has the oldest Jewish community in Europe.
The first Jewish communities established in Greece during the 3rd century BCE (Hellenistic period) following the conquests of Alexander the Great.
Some historical theories also suggest Jewish exiles may have arrived even earlier, around the 6th century BCE, following the Babylonian destruction of the First Temple
Romaniotes are an ancient, distinct group of Greek-speaking Jewish people whose presence in the Mediterranean dates back more than 2,300 years to antiquity.
They are historically separate from Sephardic and Ashkenazi Jews and maintain their own unique culture, language, and religious customs.

Thessaloniki Mother of Israel"
In the 16th century, more than half of the city of Thessaloniki was Jewish.
It was called the "Jerusalem of the Balkans".

WW2
Before World War II, approximately 80,000 Jews lived in Greece.
Most Greek Jews lived in Thessaloniki, Athens, Ioannina,Corfu, Crete and Rhodes.
During WW2 Greece was occupied by Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy & Bulgaria.
In 1943 and 1944, an estimated 62K Greek Jews were deported to Auschwitz or Treblinka.
Nearly 90 percent of Greek Jews perished in the Holocaust, one of the highest percentages in Europe.
Nazi Germany and Bulgaria were responsible for this. Fascist Italy did not organize any deportations and sometimes even saved Jews.

After WW2
most of the surviving Greek Jews left Greece shortly after WW2 , during and immediately following the Greek Civil War (1946–1949).
Today, approximately 4,5K Jews live in Greece. They mainly live in Athens & Thessaloniki.
