@dcinsb @poetrychavruta Shabbat Shalom. May Hashem cover all those in need with sheltering peace.

[Margot Goldberg @GoGoMags]

@dcinsb @poetrychavruta Says the person calling me a liar. Please, what hyperbole? I'm about to log off for Shabbat. I shudder to think about what I am going to see tomorrow night.

[Margot Goldberg @GoGoMags]

@dcinsb @poetrychavruta Ma'am I have no agenda. I am sharing information reported by a credible source. But even if for some reason you still don't understand what Gershon Baskin is saying, I presume that you are fine with thousands of blameless children losing their lives over the next few days.

[Margot Goldberg @GoGoMags]

@dcinsb @poetrychavruta Please, did you read the text or listen to the interview? That is literally EXACTLY what this very credible person with direct knowledge of this exact type of hostage situation is saying. I am jewish. My heart is broken. But carpet bombing Gaza is revenge, not justice.

[Margot Goldberg @GoGoMags]

@dcinsb @poetrychavruta But you see that Israel is making choices that have and will continue to kill thousands of innocent Palestinians and Israeli hostages. Are you okay with that?

[Margot Goldberg @GoGoMags]

@dcinsb @poetrychavruta I mean, what guarantee is there that the hostages aren't being killed in these same bombardments?

BASKIN: There is no guarantee. And Israel, I assume, takes that into account.

[Margot Goldberg @GoGoMags]

@dcinsb @poetrychavruta FADEL: You know, we've been speaking to Palestinians - civilians - inside Gaza. More than half of the people who have been killed have been women and children, or some half of that, families killed.

[Margot Goldberg @GoGoMags]

@dcinsb @poetrychavruta He absolutely did say that. Did you listen to/read this story?

[Margot Goldberg @GoGoMags]

@dcinsb @poetrychavruta This is the story from this morning from NPR. please be careful what you read and hear, there is SO MUCH propaganda circulating.

@dcinsb @poetrychavruta Also these strikes have almost certainly KILLED Jewish hostages of Hamas and will almost certainly kill more. This extreme genocidal blockade and bombardment is costing MORE Jewish lives, not fewer. Not to mention all of the Palestinian lives lost.

[Margot Goldberg @GoGoMags]

@dcinsb @poetrychavruta How do you think one million people could safely evacuate "south" in a place that already has the same population density as Tokyo? And Palestinians absolutely have been driven from homes that had been theirs for generations.

[Margot Goldberg @GoGoMags]

Would love an episode of what next covering the coverage and discourse. Thank you!

[Margot Goldberg @GoGoMags]

@marysdesk as Jewish person who has engaged in principled inquiry around Israel-Palestine for most of my life, I am horrified by the social media discourse and reporting around this current catastrophe. This feels like a propaganda pressure cooker.

[Margot Goldberg @GoGoMags]

@heymrsbond Also the lack of critical thinking around their own use of cell phones is pretty astonishing. Did the entire world get less engaging and that's why EVERYONE spends so much time on them?

Anything to pin all the problems in schools on teachers. HAVE AN ANALYSIS!

@PostingTreyf I'm Jewish and Mel Brooks isn't funny and his movies haven't aged well
