[Shannon Watts @shannonrwatts]

El Sayed winning with young, suburban, white & college educated voters and Stevens getting the votes of working class, rural & Black voters. Regardless of who wins, doesn’t this turn the DSA/leftist premise on its head? Which faction truly represents the most disenfranchised?

@alex_kirshner There are enough statements made by Israeli leadership that can be criticized without amplifying misleading ones

[Brian Brothman @BrianBrothman]

@alex_kirshner I don’t agree with his statement that the Gazans should’ve overthrown Hamas. They weren’t in position. But this takes him wildly out of context. He had just stated before that civilians in Gaza are not legitimate targets and rejected any assertion of the kind.

[Brian Brothman @BrianBrothman]

@patrickgaspard What would you have them do then? If they are going to destroy Hamas and try to rescue the hostages they need to do it by ground. If they don’t give any warning then many more civilians will die in crossfire. Is 72 hours better, a week enough?

[(((Michael Koplow))) @mkoplow]

Impressive ingenuity and execution, and devastating to Palestinians in Gaza and to anyone who has argued in favor of humanitarian assistance and reconstruction over the past 15 years

[Joe Biden @JoeBiden]

Our nation’s support for Israel is resolute and unwavering.

And the right time to praise the terrorists who seek to destroy them is never.

[Liz Cheney @Liz_Cheney]

After Hamas slaughters hundreds of Jewish families, and Israel confronts an unprecedented security crisis, Donald Trump attacks the Israeli govt and praises Hezbollah terrorists. Are Republicans really going to nominate this dangerous man to be President of the United States?

[Chief Rabbi Of Ukraine Moshe Azman @RabbiUkraine]

At the first photo, my grandchildren are hiding from the rockets of russian terrorists in the Kyiv region, in the first days of the terrible invasion in Ukraine

Later, together with thousands of people, we evacuated them to Israel and Europe

In the second photo, the same people, but hiding from the rockets of terrorists from Hamas...

Two different corners of the world, but such shared pain and struggle... It breaks my heart when I see these faces, but I believe that the light of truth and faith will see us through these trials

I pray to the Almighty, that he may rain down his anger and fury on everyone who is involved in the terror of the civilian population!

[Adam Rubenstein @RubensteinAdam]

I think if your best argument is that the dead babies were only murdered, not beheaded, you've not only lost the argument, but also your mind.

[Ron DeSantis @RonDeSantis]

Terrorists have murdered at least 1,200 Israelis and 22 Americans and are holding more hostage, so it is absurd that anyone, much less someone running for President, would choose now to attack our friend and ally, Israel, much less praise Hezbollah terrorists as “very smart.”

As President, I will stand with Israel and treat terrorists like the scum that they are.

[Tim Carney @TPCarney]

Perfect combination of factually unmoored and totally amoral.

[Bill Conway 🇺🇸 @NewDayConway]

While Hamas executes women and children and leaders swiftly denounce these unadulterated acts of evil, the Chicago City Council just spent a couple hours checking Robert's Rules of Order to determine when we can condemn terrorism.

[Eylon Levy @EylonALevy]

On my way to the funeral of a young Brazilian woman murdered at the music festival. A message went out urging strangers to attend, because she has barely any family here. There’s a 2km line snaking out of the entrance of the cemetery and I doubt we’ll make it.

[Fran Spielman @fspielman]

Jewish City Council member’s resolution condemning attack on Israel draws surprise pushback from mayoral ally https://t.co/BixIopuTDs

[Stuart Loren @StuLoren]

The comments from Rossana, Byron and Carlos have been disgusting and hurtful. Justifying the unjustifiable, absent of ANY sympathy for innocent victims of murder, rape and kidnapping. Their service in city council is a moral stain on Chicago. They are beyond redemption.

[Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp]

Netanyahu claimed he was keeping Israel safe. But his policies made the country vulnerable to the worst terrorist attack in its history https://t.co/mDsI1SZmm3

[Haaretz.com @haaretzcom]

Netanyahu must go now, not after the Gaza war https://t.co/BLYKlof1wN

@EugeneFreedman You don’t know Israelis if you think this cements his power
