Pro-Israel. Anti-Obama et al.
More and more challenging to try and understand what's happening -- and what's being allowed to happen -- in a world gone mad.

Yeah. 70 million. And that's just last month.

[Prof. Math & CS @Zeev81309559]

If you ever wondered why there are no "innocent Palestinians" today, it's just because all the innocent ones - "MORE THAN 70 MILLION", were killed by Israel.

[Kosher Chutzpah @KosherChutzpah]

In 1948, the Arab armies told the Palestinians to leave so they could wipe out the Jews.

Those who fled are today's Palestinian "refugees."

Those who stayed are Israeli citizens.

End of story.

[Michael Podwill @MichaelPodwill]

Wrong, senator. Palestinians are still living in the hell that they foolishly foisted on themselves by electing the demons of Hamas to "govern" them.

You're obviously as afflicted as your US Senator, the multimillionaire communist in a perpetual bad hair daze.

[Senator Peter Welch @SenPeterWelch]

Winter storms in Gaza flooded 70,000 tents this past weekend and it’s getting colder. They need tents, tarps, blankets, cooking gas, and health services.

Palestinians are still living in the aftermath of the Israeli government’s blockade.

[Michael Podwill @MichaelPodwill]

Nails it.

[Prof. Math & CS @Zeev81309559]

The entire Palestinian propaganda is built on 3 things: ridiculous lies, AI or staged videos, and stupidity of a large part of the audience.

[Michael Podwill @MichaelPodwill]

Grotesque is right. In fact, a troika of such: Grotesque revisionism. Grotesque hatred. Grotesque ignorance.

Only a real heartless goon, an abject moron, would call the Holocaust "just another massacre."

[Heidi Bachram @HeidiBachram]

Former trade union leader Steve Hedley says the Holocaust wasn’t “unique” and was promoted by “Zionists” to justify Israel’s existence. He claims it was “just another massacre”. This is grotesque Holocaust revisionism.

[Jonas @JASeagal]

Your reminder that Craig Murray is a well known Hamas apologist, and that Gaza had functioning drainage, sewerage and water systems before Hamas dug the pipes up to make rockets.

[Michael Podwill @MichaelPodwill]

Yes! Mitchum DEFINED evil, psychotic, demented, miserable, terrifying evil, in vehicles like "Night of the Hunter" and "Cape Fear."

[Klaatu barada nikto @gottlieb_c13952]

@MichaelPodwill Robert Mitchum.

[Michael Podwill @MichaelPodwill]

Correct. And what IS Israel responsible for? Keeping its own citizens -- in their own New Jersey-sized country (abutting lands teeming with those who seek to annihilate it) safe from savagery.

[Affirm Reality ✡️ 🕎 🇺🇸 🇮🇱 💜 🤍 💚 @MirabelleW18]

Dinosaurs and flying snakes notwithstanding, I genuinely do feel very, very sorry for these people.

But the only thing that can make their situation better is the full and complete elimination of Hamas. Israel did not create this situation and frankly is not responsible for fixing it.

[Vivid.🇮🇱 @VividProwess]

Israel does not exist because the world felt sorry for us. Israel exists because Jews decided we would never again wait for permission to live. That decision is non-negotiable. Anyone who treats it as optional has already chosen the wrong side of history.

[Dr. Maalouf ‏ @realMaalouf]

Cam Higby to a Muslim woman:

“Did you see that Trump had intercourse with a 9-year-old girl?

Muslim woman: “Yeah, that's disgusting...”

“It's disgusting, right… But that was actually prophet Muhammad, not Trump.
The Hadith says he married a 6-year-old girl and consummated it at 9. Do you still think it’s gross?”

She leaves.

These people’s hypocrisy never ceases to amaze me. Deep down they know there’s something seriously wrong with their religion.

It's clear that @JoeBiden is fighting a two-front war:
1. Cancer
2. Reality

[Steve Cortes @SteveCortes]

Joe Biden now claims his 2024 presidential debate against President Trump, which forced him to drop out of the race, was not very consequential:

“To me it was not very consequential. First of all I thought there would be another debate, which there wasn’t. Notwithstanding the fact that there wasn’t another debate, it didn’t disturb me because it wasn’t consequential.”

Just 24 days after the “not very consequential” presidential debate, Joe Biden ended his campaign for President.

[Michael Podwill @MichaelPodwill]

Know what else is rich? Bernie Sanders.

[Marco Frieri @MarcoAFrieri]

Bernie Sanders, 85 and in Congress for 35 years, is demanding new leadership. That’s rich.

[Michael Podwill @MichaelPodwill]

And that VOICE!

[Tony Tost @tonytost]

Stacy Keach was one of the great undersung acting giants. More real than real in FAT CITY & THE NEW CENTURIONS, bigger than life in the DION BROTHERS, NINTH CONFIGURATION, & ROAD GAMES, sublimely theatrical in THE TRAVELING EXECUTIONER. But watch FAT CITY. That is the grail.

[Michael Podwill @MichaelPodwill]

@SatMatHost Is this before or after wolfing your kasha varnishkas?

[Reza Pahlavi @PahlaviReza]

Visiting Auschwitz and Birkenau was a harrowing experience.

My wife Yasmine and I viewed the possessions left behind by the victims and visited the barracks, gas chambers, and crematoria. Every shoe and suitcase was a reminder of a human being who had a name, a family and a life.

The crimes of the Holocaust against the Jewish people are incomparable in the combination of its industrial scale of slaughter and the bureaucratic efficiency with which it was planned and organized. Auschwitz and Birkenau lay that plain.

My thoughts turned to the people of Iran, and to a regime that denies the Holocaust while attempting to erase the massacre of our compatriots from the world’s memory through internet blackouts, censorship and hidden executions.

But the Islamic Republic does not represent Iran. The heirs of Cyrus stand with the Jewish people. And while the regime seeks death and destruction, the Iranian nation is fighting for life and liberty.

We placed a wreath bearing the Lion and Sun on behalf of the Iranian people at the memorial to the victims. We will never forget and we will not allow the regime occupying Iran to turn our nation’s name and history into instruments of hatred.

A free Iran will once again stand for peace, life and human dignity.

Light will prevail over darkness.

@TomDohertyfilm Love Fred Derry! "Boy, could we have used those in '43!"

[Michael Podwill @MichaelPodwill]

AGREED! Never understood that.

[Thomas Doherty @TomDohertyfilm]

Years ago, Celeste Holm came to Brandeis to introduce GENTLEMAN'S AGREEMENT. After the screening someone in the audience commented, to Holm's delight, that, yeh, it was a social problem film all right and the problem was Gregory Peck chose Dorothy McGuire instead of Celeste Holm.

[Michael Podwill @MichaelPodwill]

@TomDohertyfilm Love it. Celeste was lovely. And her characters were so thoughtful, loyal and likeable. "All About Eve," "High Society"...

[Michael Podwill @MichaelPodwill]

@TomDohertyfilm Two scenes of extraordinary power:
1. Green's abortive attempt to check in at the hotel (implacable Roy Roberts was chilling; Peck shattering)
2. At the lounge when Dave Goldman (a terrific John Garfield) grabs the drunken antisemitic veteran. Explosive.
