So to all the demonstrators that love going out on a Saturday spouting their anti semitic chants and waving their flags please bear this in mind. You support the vile beasts that kidnapped and murdered these beautiful innocent children. There was not a war raging at this point. They were taken and murdered. Shocking.

[Nikki Haley @NikkiHaley]

Shame on any media outlet that can’t call this what it is, murder. Two innocent babies, their mother, and others did not simply “die”. They were kidnapped, murdered, and their bodies were held as bargaining chips by terrorists.

Anyone who doubts the brutality of Hamas, anyone who thinks these are people who can be negotiated with, look at what they did to Ariel and Kfir.

Hamas needs to be finished once and for all.

[Nicole Lampert @nicolelampert]

For the first time the police have stood up to the anti Israel hate marchers. I thank them.
If there is violence tomorrow, that’s only because the hate marchers are used to getting their way on the streets of London.
With a ceasefire in place, there’s no reason for them to be marching at all.
I sincerely hope no officer is hurt in any way by the terrorist larpers.

[Hillel Fuld @HilzFuld]

There’s a lot of attention being paid to the hostages, and rightfully so.

There’s a lot of attention being paid to the number of prisoners Israel is releasing.

There is zero attention being paid to the families whose lives these “Prisoners” ruined.

Let’s not forget who these people are. They are murderers who destroyed families.

This is my brother’s murderer. Pure evil.

My brother was grocery shopping. This monster came from behind and stabbed him in his neck.

Ari chased him down and shot him, injuring him as he was about to murder his next victim, a woman named Hila. Then Ari died.

And this is my brother’s son at his dad’s funeral.

These aren’t prisoners being released. These are monsters.

[Kosher @koshercockney]

WOW

Israel’s Ambassador to the UN Danny Danon just exposed the UN’s school book that teach Palestinian children to Murder innocent civilians and commit Terrorist attacks.

Taught in UNRWA schools

Politicians like David Lammy and others are using YOUR Tax money to pay for it.

Please see below for a thread of the IMPACT-SE independent investigation into Palestinian UNRWA school textbooks.

[Liza Rosen @LizaRosen0000]

Palestinian UN staffers went into panic mode over this speech by a British colonel who refused to embrace UN’s false narrative which always portrays Israel as the "aggressor" and the Muslim terrorists as "victims" of Islamophobic oppression.

You don't get to tell Jews what they are. You don't get to rewrite our history, culture or ethnicity.

So here's a short history lesson for you:

Not only approx 60% of Israel's Jewish population has been ethnically cleansed from the Middle East—something to keep in mind as you chant "go back to Europe"—Ashkenazi Jews aren't "European colonizers" either.

Nor is "Jewish a religion." It's an ethnicity, one which commonly practices Judaism as a religion. You can be an atheist, or even a Christian and you still remain ethnically Jewish. It's genetics, not beliefs.

Yes, occasionally people convert and we accept them into the tribe, but this is rather rare — no matter what bs conspiracy theories you've read on the Internet about Khazars.

The Jews who ended up in Europe did so because they were pushed out by conquering forces and other reasons. Some ended up in the Middle East, some in Ethiopia, and a number ended up in Europe. We all share significant mutual DNA, regardless of where the diaspora ended up—even if we don't all look the same.

Yes, genetic studies have shown that Ashkenazi Jews share significant Middle Eastern ancestry, tracing back to ancient Israel. Scientific evidence that underscores our connection to the land.

Our story begins over 3,000 years ago, in the land of Canaan, where our ancestors established the kingdoms of Israel and Judah. You might know it from your bible or Quran. But also, most importantly, archeology and historical research which support that 100%.

Although our numbers have fluctuated, Jews maintained a continuous presence in this region despite numerous exiles and conquests by Babylonians, Romans, Byzantines, and others.

In the 1st and 2nd centuries CE, when the Romans destroyed the Second Temple, many Jews were dispersed throughout the Roman Empire. Yet, even in dispersion, we did not sever our ties to our homeland. Religious Jews pray facing Jerusalem, and Israel is not only included in our prayers, but in cultural practices, such as when we clink our glasses: "Next year in Jerusalem."

We are indigenous to the land.

And while I don't believe that this alone gives us the right over the land today (a different topic), you don't get to just erase that from our history.

To label Jews as European colonizers in Israel is historical revisionism.

To call Ashkenazi Jews "fake Jews" is not only a cruel lie, but an erasure of reality—one they happened to have been prosecuted for.

Some people say such things because they lack knowledge, that can be remedied through a willingness to learn.

But to those who are doing this out of melice:
You don't get to tell me what a Jew is. Our identity is not yours to define, and our history is not yours to rewrite.

Breaking 🚨Prime Minister of Israel Benjamin Netanyau for the first time posts a picture of himself wearing telfilin with the follow caption:

"And let all the peoples of the earth see that the name of God is called upon you and they will fear you."

Bibi said “Ruhama, the mother of Moshiko Doino, named Yakum Demo, who fell in the "Tzuk Eitan" operation, brought me his tefillin.

The tefillin that were with him all the time during the battles are the only item that survived the inferno in which Moshiko fell.

The smell of gunpowder still remains on the tefillin cover.

I promised Ruhama that I would place the tefillin for the uplifting of Moshiko's soul and for the uplifting of the souls of all our fallen.

This is what I do today with holy fear.

May the memory of our soldiers be blessed and enshrined in our hearts forever.”
