HERO
This is Masad Armilat, a 23-year-old Arab-Israeli man.
Masad works at a gas station near Sderot. On October 7, as gunshots rang out nearby, Masad and left the shop, ran towards the main road,
and found people hiding in bushes after fleeing the Nova music festival, where terrorists were running amok, massacring hundreds.
Some of the people were suffering from gunshot sounds. There was precious little time to think.
Masad selflessly and immediately brought them to the gas station. Once safely inside, he locked the door. He then dragged gas containers next to the entrance, so if terrorists tried to shoot the lock and open the door, the balloons would explode on them.
He led everyone to the shelter, then went outside, risking his life. He waited by the window to see when the terrorists would arrive. And they did.
The terrorists peered inside suspiciously. Suspecting something, they tried to break down the door, kicking at it over and over. But upon seeing the gas balloons, they decided to leave.
Thanks to Masad's heroic and selfless actions, the lives of 14 people were saved that day.
Masad emphasized, "We're all one, whether Arabs or Jewish."
May there be many more people like you, Masad.
I'm Palestinian but I was angry with Hamas after the October 7 massacre.
I knew it would lead to war.
Yesterday I watched an anti-Zionist protest demanding the dismantling of Israel take over London.
This is the same ideology that caused the massacre in the first place.
3 questions for the global far left:
1/14
Here’s the 1st question: How many Jews need to die before you stop blaming us for everything that happens? Because on that dark Saturday 2 weeks ago, 1,400 were murdered. How many more do you need? Ten thousand? 6 million?
1. I've been quietly watching the Hamas/Palestine-Israel conflict unfolding as it washes onto our shores. But now seeing Jewish businesses and people threatened on our streets by overt anti-Semites has compelled me to share a story I haven't spoken of until, now:
🧵Now that day has broken, and we're getting better evidence, I'm willing to share some PRELIMINARY thoughts on the al-Ahli hospital explosion. The photos of the scene are, to me, not consistent with an airstrike and are not consistent with claims that 500+ people were killed.
78 years ago today over 7,000 prisoners of the German Nazi camp #Auschwitz, including some 700 children, were liberated by the soldiers of the Soviet Army. 1,689 days of murder, pain, suffering, and humiliation were over. Today we all remember. We must remember. | #Auschwitz78
