Mijal Bitton’s profound Peoplehood statement has resonated deeply within my soul for almost 2 years. This morning her new Peoplehood statement sparked pure joy in my heart. Shabbat Shalom!💙. @mijalbitton
On @ABC I told @Alex_Presha that as Hamas turns its guns on Palestinians, "My worry is the president announced the deal, and now he thinks the work is over. The work is just beginning.”

Axios: One US official said Trump was moved by the video released by Hamas of an Israeli hostage digging his own grave. “It influenced the president, and he is going to let the Israelis do what they need to do.”
Reality: It’s likely a death sentence for the hostage (Evyatar David).
As the Hamas Rapist Regime frees three hostages, do not forget that it is promising to do October 7 "again and again". We have to get all the hostages out. And we have to make sure Hamas can never kidnap them again.

Kfir Bibas will celebrate his first birthday tomorrow in Gaza, still held hostage by Hamas.
Nothing in this sentence should make sense to anyone, in any way.
We must bring Kfir, and all the hostages, back home, NOW!
#BringThemHomeNow
Tomorrow, on January 18th, Kfir Bibas will mark his first birthday as a hostage in Gaza.
Help us raise awareness for Kfir and for all of the hostages by posting his picture and including the #KfirOneYear.
Let’s get #KfirOneYear trending around the world.
#BringThemHomeNow🎗️
Noa was partying in the south of Israel in a peace music festival when Hams terrorists kidnapped her and dragged her from Israel into Gaza.
Noa is held hostage by Hamas.
She could be your daughter, sister, friend.
#BringBackOurFamily
