This video is excellent and on point about Israel and antisemitism. https://t.co/vLDzCR73rb

I had to. 😂

Iranian Regime & Hezbollah: We will get rid of the evil Zionists on our way to destroying the entire Western world!

Israel: Call me, beep me, if you wanna reach me!

[Shira Zwiren @ShiraZwiren]

THIS.

Israel has not been abandoned by America. It has been abandoned and betrayed by the Biden administration.
Sen. Lindsay Graham's questioning of Def. Secretary Lloyd Austin should be heard by the American people so they can see what is being done to the Jews in their name.

@JustinRColon Yikes! Don’t they say it’s a sign of talent to make your craft look easy?

[Shira Zwiren @ShiraZwiren]

@mamaninja @LucyWarriner3 @Shayan86 @jk_rowling Yes, they are. How do you think they all have the same tents?

This unbelievably talented kid, whose voice pierces the soul, is Neria Granot. In this moving video, he sings the prayer for IDF soldiers to be protected.

His father, Rabbi Yuval Granot is the rabbi of The Young Israel synagogue of Ramat Poleg.

This is what the words mean:

“He Who blessed our forefathers Abraham, Isaac and Jacob - may He bless the fighters of the Israel Defense Force, who stand guard over our land and the cities of our God from the border of the Lebanon to the desert of Egypt, and from the Great Sea unto the approach of the Aravah, on the land, in the air, and on the sea.

May Hashem cause the enemies who rise up against us to be struck down before them. May the Holy One, Blessed is He, preserve and rescue our fighting men from every trouble and distress and from every plague and illness, and may He send blessing and success in their every endeavor.

May He lead our enemies under their sway and may He grant them salvation and crown them with victory. And may there be fulfilled for them the verse: For it is Hashem, your God, Who goes with you to battle your enemies for you to save you.

Now let us respond: Amen.”

This war is bigger than land in the Middle East. This is about humanity vs extremist terrorist ideologies. If you don’t believe that, terrorist propaganda is working on you. #StandWithIsrael #AmYisraelChai #saynototerror

[Shira Zwiren @ShiraZwiren]

Remember when Voldemort came back and the Prime Minister and the media gaslit Harry about it until it was too late and the Ministry was infiltrated? Now look at us being gaslit about Hamas. @jk_rowling got it right about the PR war and antisemitism.

[Shira Zwiren @ShiraZwiren]

This isn’t to exclude caring abt Palestinian children. But I’m centering this particular conversation abt the children, toddlers, & babies kidnapped by Hamas. Some of those babies are still NURSING. If you think this act is justified, you have lost your humanity. #saynototerror

[Shira Zwiren @ShiraZwiren]

No matter your politics-it’s NEVER justified to kidnap children & babies. If you’re in the kidlit space & care about children, you can’t ignore the ones currently held by Hamas terrorists. Please be a voice for them & demand their release. #lettheworldknow #saynototerror #kidlit

[Shira Zwiren @ShiraZwiren]

I’ve been out of the #kidlit #WritingCommunity for so long and I keep wanting to come back, but I also had a baby five months ago and life is overwhelming. I know this is a season and things will eventually calm down, but I’m so anxious to get this part of my life back. #pb #mg

[Shira Zwiren @ShiraZwiren]

I ordered formula for my baby from Walmart and it came with bonus coffee! Thank you so much to whichever @Walmart employee did this! Your kindness to a tired, overwhelmed mom is so appreciated!

[DrZatHome 🧪🥼🧫 @home_zat]

On a major #kidlit fb group this am, I saw something deeply disturbing: a response to a post on #jewishvoices saying they matter BUT that books on Israel are contentious. The problem? When ppl say we can't have #jewishbooks bc of #israel politics. Being Jewish≠Israel government

[Shira Zwiren @ShiraZwiren]

My pre-schooler wants to be a cat when she grows up.

[Shira Zwiren @ShiraZwiren]

Thank you for saving the day, @LIRR!

[(((Izzo Zwiren))) @IZwiren]

In this world of synicism, I would like to publically thank the @LIRR for their incredible help tonight. At 10:15 this evening, a man rang my doorbell returning my wallet that I left on a train after this evening's commute. Thank you so much to the LIRR and that worker.

[Shira Zwiren @ShiraZwiren]

That awkward moment when you step into a store dressed almost entirely in their merchandise.

[Shira Zwiren @ShiraZwiren]

@adriamgoetz My kids ALWAYS remove the dust jackets! I hate it and can’t bear to get rid of them so we have a stack of empty dust jackets in their bookcase.

[Shira Zwiren @ShiraZwiren]

@MotyRaven Refuah shelaima!!!

@EGoldish @Edwardowitz @IZwiren To me, Rizzo is a character from Grease.
