Thereās power in asking another man the last time he cried, so when I sat down with @DouglasEmhoff, I made sure to do just that:
āThereās a mezuzah at the Vice Presidentās residence. It might have been then because my father cried.ā

We welcome the announcement of anĀ agreement to release 50 hostagesĀ and hope that Hamas upholds its endĀ of this deal. We must #BringThemHome. All of them.Ā https://t.co/Ig7PV2vyM1
We strongly urge the media to report fairly and verify information. This is not just a matter of getting the facts straight: In some places across the world, it can literally mean life or death for Jewish communities under siege. Read our letter: https://t.co/U6fbEBx222
We thank the Bipartisan Congressional Caucus on Black-Jewish Relations for standing w/ #Israel & ensuring law enforcement is prepared to protect Jewish communities from antisemitic threats stirred in response to Hamas's attack. @RepDWStweets@RepNikema@RepWPH. #BlackJewishCaucus
The terrorist attack on Israel has brought to the surface painful memories and the scars left by a millennia of antisemitism and genocide of the Jewish people.
So, in this moment, we must be crystal clear: We stand with Israel and the Jewish community.
There is no justification for terrorism.
Hamas does not stand for the Palestinian peopleās equal right to dignity and self-determination.
They use Palestinian civilians as human shields, and offer nothing but terror and bloodshed with no regard for who pays the price.
Let us be clear: There is no place for hate in America.
Not against Jews. Not against Muslims.
What we reject is terrorism. We condemn its indiscriminate evil, just as we have always done.
That is what America stands for.
It's a tragic thing to know that because I'm an Israeli Jew, if someone randomly slaughtered me in the street, a great deal of people would call my murderer a freedom fighter.
As a Muslim CEO in tech, let me just say this:
Hamas is an evil terrorist organization that needs to be wiped off the face of the Earth.
Murdering innocent civilians (children, babies, families asleep in their homes) goes against every single teaching of the Qur'an.
May they all rot in Hell.
I pray for peace and innocent lives to be spared as Israel completes this task. But complete it, I hope they do.
All Americans should be horrified and outraged by the brazen terrorist attacks on Israel and the slaughter of innocent civilians. We grieve for those who died, pray for the safe return of those whoāve beenĀ held hostage, and stand squarely alongside our ally, Israel,Ā as it dismantles Hamas. As we supportĀ IsraelāsĀ right to defend itself against terror,Ā we must keep striving for a just and lasting peace for Israelis and Palestinians alike.
Jewish ppl all over the world are experiencing an acute trauma & vulnerability that has been passed down through generations. Itās epigeneticāliterally in our DNA.
Please, check on your Jewish friends. Show them humanity & tell them you care.
Tell your non-Jewish friends, too.
Just spoke with Israeli Ambassador Michael Herzog about the horrific attacks on Israel. America stands with the people of Israel and we are working together to support safe travel in the region.
Just imagine... we can't.
We stand with Israel against terror. š®š±
Israel, like any other nation, has the right to defend itself from these heinous attacks.
We thank @POTUS for standing unwaveringly with #Israel in the face of the horrific Hamas invasion, for reaffirming the right of Israel to defend itself & its people against Hamas and other terrorist organizations, & for continued support of all means in the face of this assault.
