Habermas's co-authored statement on anti-Semitism after October 7 -> https://t.co/iexywWvq78

[Matthew in the City 🗽 @MatthewNYCity]

German thinker Jürgen Habermas has died today. From the left, he always remained committed to reason. When he saw an alarming rise in anti-semitism disguised as 'anti-Zionism' after 10/7, he spoke up. Despite his credentials, the jihadist progressives did not forgive him. RIP.

I am beyond happy the hostages are back home in Israel. May peace come now.

Happy to have visited Israel again this year and stand in support of the great Israeli people. The sad circumstances will change. #BringThemHomeNow

[Matthew in the City 🗽 @MatthewNYCity]

Today on Sukkot in Tel Aviv October 7 we remember, never to forget, and keep our hope for peace. Bring them all home, now. #Oct7 #October7 #BringThemHomeNow

Happy to have visited Haifa today. The city is rich in culture and resilience. A truly vital part of Israel!

I visited the Western Wall in Jerusalem today. A special place for Israel and the world.

@streetwize @zivvlad We were all there. Peace! 🎗️

Hostage Square Tel Aviv. Very moving. Rally tonight at 8pm as on every Saturday until they are all home. #BringThemHomeNow

Shabbat shalom from Tel Aviv. The sunset is as usual magical.

[Matthew in the City 🗽 @MatthewNYCity]

I landed in Tel Aviv for a week in Israel. Bring them home, now!

[Matthew in the City 🗽 @MatthewNYCity]

@BeladonnaRogers Thank you! I look forward visiting.

[Matthew in the City 🗽 @MatthewNYCity]

I will soon (again) travel to Israel, from October 2 to 8, and provide daily updates here on X.

@thestustustudio It keeps astonishing me that these students actually think that what they do is somehow meaningful to the conflict. But they bear none of the consequences of their dumb ideas.

@JNS_org Macron comes straight from Vichy!

@ShabbosK Solidarity with Shai Davidai!

[Matthew in the City 🗽 @MatthewNYCity]

@ShabbosK Of course, they found nothing, because he didn't do nothing wrong. On the contrary, he is a great guy/professor!

[Matthew in the City 🗽 @MatthewNYCity]

@thestustustudio @UHouston As usual, the one writing and babbling about slavery and capitalism etc. is a privileged white guy. (As an academic insider also) I can assure you they care more about money and prestige than any sane person.
