Ohad Munder Zichri is a bright kid who loves soccer, tennis, and solving the Rubik’s cube.

On October 7th, Ohad was kidnapped by Hamas terrorists into Gaza, alongside his mother, Keren, and his grandparents.

On Monday, October 23rd, Ohad will turn 9.

We send Ohad and all those who were kidnapped strength and courage. We hope and pray we will be able to celebrate with them soon. Israel will spare no effort to bring them home, safe and sound.

Please join @AmbHerzog in wishing Ohad a happy birthday by signing the e-card linked below or by sending an email to: [email protected]

"Ohad Munder Zichri, who was kidnapped by Hamas on Oct. 7, holds up a trophy, in an undated photograph. He turns 9 today.

Munder Zichri’s family asked that his photograph be shared today in honor of his birthday." —@eJPhil

Ohad Munder Zichri taken hostage by Hamas. It's his 9th birthday today.

Why aren't those "concerned" about war crimes screaming for Hamas to return the hostages?

And yes it is a war crime in case any sick minds ask for proof https://t.co/yE01a1mT8v

Jim Jordan and Donald Trump are BOTH feeling humiliated this evening. They both know what it means. They are both going to prison. What a thought to take us into the weekend.

Rep. Byron Donalds is running for speaker, spokesman says https://t.co/cutnda1oKG
Byron will be the 5th traitorous Insurrectionist that voted to overturn the 2020 elections to throw his hat in the ring.

@GretaThunberg I have always supported you and all you have stood for until now. I also pray for the people of Palestine, who live under terrorist rule, BUT there is no excuse, justification or ‘both- sidism’ for the brutal, unconscionable, massacre of innocent Israelis.

[Jack Hopkins @thejackhopkins]

Put yourself in Jim Jordan’s shoes. He was in on the planning of the events surrounding Jan 6th from the beginning with Donald Trump.

He knows Trump’s every move is scrutinized.

He knows Trump faces felony charges in front of at least three different judges, and has been hit with almost 100 charges.

Still, Jim colludes with Trump, drawing even more attention to himself. Why?

Jordan knows it’s over for him. Don’t think he knows Jack Smith is so deep into him that he knows what the lining of his stomach looks like? Think again.

Jordan hears the ticking of the clock. Every. Second. Of. It.

That’s why Jordan didn’t only kiss the ring. He kissed it again. Then he kissed it again. He’s still kissing it.

Jim Jordan has nothing left to lose. Nothing. What he’s doing doesn’t require bravery. It’s an act of cowardice.

It has been and act of cowardice since the first day Trump asked him to be a part of actions he knew violated the U.S. Constitution, and he didn’t have the balls…or the intelligence to say, No!”

Actions that went against the oath he took, and put the entire country at risk, and made it more vulnerable to attacks from all enemies…both foreign and domestic.

What Jordan is doing now is exactly what a rat does when it is backed into a corner.

The only thing it can do. The rat knows it’s over…but it still shows his teeth. At that point, it’s all the rat can do. However, it’s futile. It’s the last act before the curtain drops.

Jack Smith’s curtain is going to drop. Like some thick, monolithic shroud than can engulf an area of any needed size, and bring nothing but darkness and a hush to that area.

It’s called the curtain of justice.

Almost three years in, I’ve grown accustomed to the naysayers. I’ve listened to people crying out, “Nothing will ever happen.”

I’ve heard, “Trump will never be indicted!”

I shook my head when folks commented, “He’ll never see the inside of a courtroom.”

I got so sick of listening to these mindless rants of negativity, even after every motherfucking thing people have said would “NEVER happen!”….has happened…that it now slides off my back like a lard greased piece of wax paper.

I have bigger fish to fry.

When people talk about how “Merrick Garland will never let Jack Smith…” do “this, or that”…or how “Donald Trump will never see the inside of a jail…he’ll just get a slap on the wrist” ….it’s an exercise formulated from ignorance.

It’s is nothing more than a way people are trying to deal with their fears, and they’re too wrapped up in paying attention to themselves, that they never take the time to think about the demoralizing impact of the groundless shit they say.

If people want to deal with their fears…..they should DO SOMETHING.

It’s hard to be dragging others down and educating the world on what can “never happen” if you are busy taking actions that MAKE useful things happen.

Jim Jordan is fucked. He’s as fucked as those as those wrestlers in Ohio were, that reached out to him for help. He wasn’t there for them.

No one is going to be there for Jim, now. No one, that is, except Jack Fucking Smith.

@RubenZorian @BillAckman So going to college and belonging to any group whether social or a sports team or an extracurricular club exonerates an individual participant in said group for their participation in heinous behavior ???

@ddueltech @BillAckman As they claim their right to “free speech”, why be anonymous ? Thank you for posting !

@ResisterSis20 It’s not “woke” that’s dying in Florida. It’s freedom. Join us as we breakdown the legislation, behavior & leadership that is making #Florida the test ground for what Republicans plan to unleash on the nation. https://t.co/pfK982drz3

My fellow veterans are not political props. Republicans can't wrap themselves in the flag one day, and then vote to cut veterans care the next. This bill is a disgrace.

BREAKING: This morning Governor DeSantis officially signed into law the removal of Walt Disney’s special tax district.

This move isn't happening because DeSantis thinks it's best for the state, but instead it's best for his political ambitions after Disney decided to speak out against the bigoted laws that he supports, which harm the LGBTQ+ community.

Now instead of Disney taking care of 25,000-acres of land and 175 miles of roadways in Central Florida, it will be up to the state to do that.

What's best for DeSantis isn't what's best for Florida, and what's best for America isn't a Fascist form of government where corporations are penalized for speaking out for what they believe in.  

Republicans want "Free Speech" only when it helps their own cause.

@highbrow_nobrow @CNN @allisondmorrow These lawsuits might cause Fox some real pain. That seems…appropriate.

trump hid from the draft with fake bone spurs, hid from protesters in a bunker, and hid from reality when he lost.

President Biden took a 10 hour train ride into an active war zone to show support for Ukraine.

That's because as our leader, #JoeGetsIt.
