The shooter at Temple Israel was reportedly killed by a security officer on site. What a hero. I wish we didn't need them, but I am so grateful for those off duty officers who guard our institutions.
It didn't fail to reflect the gravity of the situation. It failed to accurately communicate who was responsible, who the intended victims were and where the blame for the attempted terrorist attack lay. In other words you didn't accidentally downplay the seriousness of it, you deliberately misrepresented what happened to conceal the truth from the public.
Guys that post was just the tip of the iceberg,
I found 70+ radical anti-Israel posts liked by Rama Duwaji, wife of Zohran Mamdani. One calls October 7 a "mass rape hoax." https://t.co/ogwZfweh4v
Joking aside, the reason the online isolationists are having such a meltdown is actually not even that they are "anti-war". Current events are shattering the illusion that their hot takes are representative or influential. This is why they're so upset.
The reason they have been able to maintain this illusion in their minds despite the fact that President Trump has always been pro-Israel and a hawk on Iran is that the illusion was flattering to them.
Thousands and thousands of likes on their posts about how Churchill was the chief villain of WWII and Israel is the root of all evil went to their head. They thought they had power. The thought they had influence. And now that they've realised they don't they're calling for Trump to be impeached 🤡
My thoughts and prayers are with them at this difficult time.
Tulsi Gabbard, who is haunted by the prospect of nuclear war, should be very pleased that Israel is taking on the task of destroying the nuclear program of one of the most dangerous regimes on the planet
Israel hitting Iran’s nuclear sites was the right move and most of the Arab countries in the Middle East support the move too, even if they won’t necessarily say it publicly.
This @TheFP video is CRITICAL to understand the complicity of media in turning the public against Israel based on lies.
Hamas keeps power by warlording all aid going into Gaza. So, America and Israel have set up their own distribution centers.
This is a huge threat to Hamas. They don’t care if Palestinians die. So they attacked them. Western media breathlessly reported it. The IDF put out footage proving it wasn’t true, and then AFTER THE PUBLIC BELIEVED THE LIE, they quietly retract the stories.
And it’s a pattern. They did this with Al Shifa hospital too. They must stop believing Hamas sources so blindly.

1/ I think the Democratic party -- and its leaders in particular -- owe a MASSIVE apology to @deanbphillips.
And until they realize that, I don't think they can really grasp how big a trust problem they have with the general public.
Let me explain:
