@NYCMayor You describe Oct 7 as “war crimes” omitting rape, torture, and evidence of genocidal intent. You grieve only for New Yorkers, not the Jewish victims of the massacre. The ICJ has not ruled Israel is committing genocide. This framing minimizes the real victims on their anniversary.
Unlike @AbdulElSayed, I’m an Arab who is actually from Israel. My family lived through the establishment of the state of Israel and what he calls the “Nakba.” The Holocaust was nothing like the events of the “Nakba” where my grandfather was told to flee by Arab leaders (not Jews) so the Arabs could “defeat the Jews.” He refused, and all the Arab residents who stayed were given citizenship. Those who fled, a large number by choice, were not permitted to return, as often happens in war. That is a catastrophe, a “nakba” of their own making. But there was no choice in the Holocaust, there was no citizenship for those who stayed. You are intentionally comparing a war and a genocide. They are not the same.
Your vile attempt to co-opt the largest massacre of the Jewish people in history, the systematic murder of six million people simply because they were Jews, for your own dystopian pro-terror Muslim Brotherhood agenda is despicable. I see through you Abdul. You may be able to fool Western Americans with your garbage, but we know who you really are.

Yesterday, a film accusing Israel of genocide premiered.
It’s a horrific blood libel against our sons and daughters. What makes it especially painful and infuriating is that this lie comes from Israeli filmmakers and is now being spread around the world.
Let’s get the facts straight:
On October 7th, Hamas invaded Israel to murder Jews. Hamas terrorists slaughtered children in front of their parents and parents in front of their children. They burned homes, raped women, and kidnapped babies, children and elderly people.
Then Hamas fled back to Gaza and deliberately hid behind its own civilians, using them as human shields in homes, schools, and hospitals.
And when Israel fights back, and civilians are tragically killed in this terrible war, Israel is accused of “genocide.”
There is no magic button that can destroy Hamas, or any terrorist organization hiding behind civilians, without harming a single civilian. It simply does not exist.
In interviews with the international media, I always ask: “What would you do?”
They never have an answer.
If Israel wanted to hurt the people of Gaza, we would not send our sons and daughters to fight house to house, through alleyways and tunnels, at the terrible cost of our own soldiers being killed and wounded.
We would not warn civilians before strikes and evacuate them from combat zones.
We would not help vaccinate hundreds of thousands of children in Gaza against polio.
The war in Gaza is terrible. The death of every child is a tragedy.
But a terrible war is not genocide.
Even now, Hamas doesn’t regret October 7th. It’s rearming and waiting for another opportunity to carry out a massacre.
The people standing between us and that next massacre are our soldiers and reservists. Our sons and daughters who put their lives at risk so that we can live here safely.
I love them.
I am proud of them.
And I am deeply grateful to them.
To portray them as perpetrators of “genocide” is not courageous art.
It is a cowardly blood libel.
And I will not remain silent.
@MattWalshBlog Parents should face serious felony consequences for failure to secure a firearm when minors use it for manslaughter. Propose a federal law holding owners criminally liable in such cases, excluding self-defense. This creates uniform accountability without infringing 2A rights.
Unbelievable and unacceptable!
Vice President Vance is trying to shift the blame for his failed negotiations onto others, making one false claim after another simply to avoid admitting that the talks with the Islamic Republic failed because of his own naïveté and his lack of understanding of how the ayatollahs’ regime operates.
Because of his misplaced optimism toward the ayatollahs, Vice President Vance gave this terrorist regime a major opportunity to humiliate the United States on the world stage.
The Vice President of the United States also appears to have little understanding of the Iranian people. He seems to view Iranians—who are victims of the regime and are fighting for freedom and democracy—as a threat, while treating the ayatollahs’ regime as a trustworthy negotiating partner.
I hope Mr. Vance comes to understand the realities of the region as soon as possible. As long as the ayatollahs’ regime remains in power, there can be neither stability nor lasting peace in the Middle East.
@VP@JDVance@realDonaldTrump
In the most respectful way I can possibly put this.
NO FUCKING PERSON asked you to send 150,000 U.S. troops, you absolute moron.
Stop pretending that’s what the Iranian people were asking for.
The boots on the ground were ALWAYS supposed to be the Iranian people themselves.
The role of the U.S. and Israel was to strike the regime’s military infrastructure. WHICH THEY DID.
The Iranian people came out on DAY ONE. YOUR administration told them to stay inside. You said it wasn’t the right time. You said you would give the green light.
YOU NEVER DID.
Why?
Because you didn’t want the Iranian people to be the ones who toppled the regime and determined Iran’s future. You wanted to control the regime change process yourself and extract concessions from it.
It backfired.
YOU made the mistake.
So stop bullshitting people as if it was the Iranian people who failed to do their part.
THEY DID.
And 40,000 of our countrymen paid the price of your false promises.
When condos were making money, taxpayers didn’t get a cut.
Now they’re losing money, and taxpayers are expected to cover the bill.
Poilievre’s argument is simple: if developers took the risk, developers should take the loss.🇨🇦
For over two years, the UN laundered Hamas propaganda, manufactured fake aid statistics, and called it "authoritative data."
Today, the curtain comes down.
The systematic information manipulation machine operating under the UN is now exposed. See the evidence for yourself: 👇

I noted earlier that Inea Bushnaq, the New York woman in Mamdani's Nakba Day video, is from a Bosniak family (Bushnaq = بشناق = Bosniak) that settled in Ottoman Palestine in the 1880s – the same time the first modern wave of Jewish settlers arrived.
But the plot thickens...
@NYCMayor Childhood trauma is real. But ignoring initiating Arab actions and Jewish lawful rights is wrong.
Framing 1948 as Zionist invasion, while omitting Arab rejection of UN partition, blockade of Jewish Jerusalem, the multi-army invasion feeds a one-sided narrative, not history.
Humanitarian aid? Or fuel for terror?
Today at Kerem Shalom, security teams intercepted hundreds of bottles of engine oil,a restricted dual-use item, smuggled inside @UNDP crates.
Engine oil is a restricted dual-use item due to its documented exploitation of aid for terror purposes by Hamas. Until a full investigation is undertaken, all UNDP shipments are suspended effective immediately.
When we say security screening is necessary, this is why. We provide the corridors; we will not provide the cover for smuggling.
