Yesterday, I saw raw footage of October 7th.

I find myself haunted by the cries of two children witnessing their father die from an explosion after a Hamas terrorist throws a grenade inside their shelter.

Suffering the savagery of Hamas feels like a fate worse than death. The fatherless child is seen crying in agony:

“Why am I still alive?”

4/ The good people at @CBC never informed their readers that the humanitarian Free Gaza leader Laith Marouf openly calls to murder Jews, and everyone knew about his incitement to hatred and violence since he led the Concordia University riots of 2002.

Elon Musk pushing unvarnished anti semitism at a time of rising antisemitism and violence against Jews

100% accurate!!

7 major differences between the anti-Israel protests and the pro-Israel rally today at the National Mall:

1. Nobody was assaulted.
2. There were many American flags.
3. There was no racism or bigotry.
4. Nobody was hiding behind a face mask.
5. Concern was expressed for innocents on the other side.
6. It was bipartisan.
7. It was much, much larger!

This is genius.

OMG
An Israeli satirical columnist made a REAL call to Harvard admissions inquiring if a Hamas terrorist can enrol & what extra curriculum activities may he mention (“killing of white babies only, not raping, just murder because he’s gender respectful”)

[Aviva Klompas @AvivaKlompas]

Yagil Yaakov is just 13 and he has spent 33 days as a child hostage of Hamas.

This is him before he was taken and from a propaganda clip released by terrorists today.

A student from UPenn is seen speaking fondly about the “joyful” images of butchered Israelis from the “glorious October 7th.”

She felt “happy” upon hearing the news of dead Jews in Israel.

In what appears to be a call for violence, she tells the crowd to “hold that feeling in your hearts” and “bring it to the streets.”

This is not a patient at a psychiatric hospital.
This is a student at an Ivy League.

Tonight, the US House of Representatives overwhelmingly voted (397-22) to condemn antisemitism and support for terrorism on college campuses and to urge college administrators to ensure campuses are safe for Jewish students.

No votes (list of shame): @RepAOC, @Ilhan, @RepPressley, @RepSummerLee, @RepMcGovern, @repdeliaramirez, @NydiaVelazquez, @RepMaxineWaters, @RepBonnie, @RepRashida, @RepUnderwood, @repmarktakano, @rephuffman, @repjayapal, @RepChuyGarcia, @rep_jackson, @RepMaxwellFrost, @RepAndreCarson, @RepCori, @RepBowman, @repblumenauer, and @RepThomasMassie

Note: @RepRitchie mistakenly voted against this resolution on the House floor but submitted a correction for the record (reflected in our tally)

Meanwhile, over the past 12 hours, a portal to Kristallnacht has opened in the Caucasus. In Dagestan, a raging crowd besieged a hotel in which Jews were allegedly hiding. A Jewish cultural center was set on fire in Nalchik. Yesterday, at a rally in Karachay-Cherkessia, local residents demanded that all Jews be evicted from the republic.

37 years ago today, the Mets were 1986 World Series Champions.

[Rep. Shontel Brown @RepShontelBrown]

Five years ago today, 11 Jewish people were murdered at #TreeOfLife Synagogue in Pittsburgh in the worst such attack in U.S. history.

We must redouble our efforts to combat antisemitism so that we can be a country where people of all faiths, races, and backgrounds feel safe.

[bill hofheimer @bhofheimer_espn]

Happy anniversary to @PTI, which debuted 22 years ago today on ESPN.

Tony Kornheiser, @RealMikeWilbon and production leads @ErikRydholm @kellihem and @BonnieBerko have been there from the beginning - and made PTI one of the most successful shows in history.

Outside the Tel Aviv museum, a Shabbat table is set for 203 hostages kidnapped by Hamas to Gaza.

Please watch the full length of the video, and try to imagine the whole world behind each one of those empty seats.

[Ritchie Torres @RitchieTorres]

A violent antisemite abruptly punched a young woman in the face on the subway. He openly admitting to doing so because she is Jewish.

If Antisemitism has nothing to do with AntiZionism, as the DSA and BDS would have you believe, then why does the demonization of Israel so often lead to an outbreak of antisemitic violence, vitriol, and vandalism?

The October 7th massacre is an unmistakable manifestation of AntiZionism as Antisemitism.

#UPenn doubling down on standing up for people who openly celebrate murder and rape.

[Noah Pollak @NoahPollak]

Latest from @Penn: An incredible Faculty Senate statement in which the professors tell Penn donors & alums they can take their money and shove it, all with a subtle vibe of "you Jews can't manipulate us with your money." Penn alums, why would you give to this broken institution?

[StopAntisemitism @StopAntisemites]

London School of Economics - a young woman is filmed tearing down posters of missing Israeli children kidnapped by Hamas terrorists into Gaza.

When asked why she's destroying them, she answers there is no proof women were raped.

[Jason Bedrick @JasonBedrick]

Hey @ucdavis, do you think it’s appropriate that one of your faculty advisors, @jemmaisOKeh, is publicly threatening to murder Jews at their homes and their children at their schools?

[Ted Lieu @tedlieu]

News organizations that immediately took the word of a Hamas controlled entity falsely accusing Israel of striking the hospital should apologize. These news organizations not only got it wrong, their rush to judgement caused other nations to wrongly interpret the hospital blast.

[ian bremmer @ianbremmer]

lesson to journalists: maybe don’t trust hamas as your sole source?

[Malcolm Nance @MalcolmNance]

TV NEW PRODUCERS: NEVER REPORT NUMBERS OF KILLED AND INJURED CIVILIANS GIVEN BY A TERRORIST ORGANIZATION AS A FACT. @bbc, @cnn & & @MSNBC almost universally said Israel carried out an air strike that killed 500 civilians mainly women and children. None of that was known. None is confirmed. Deception is an enemy tool. Don’t accept deception.
