Utter devastation seen across the Northern Venezuelan coastal city of La Guaira, following tonight’s pair of major earthquakes, measuring 7.2 and 7.5 magnitude with an epicenter just to the west of Caracas.
The Ashkenazim are not the majority in Israel, and a large share of Israeli Jews are of Middle Eastern and North African origin.
Jews were subjected to massacres, expulsions, discrimination, and periodic waves of violence across parts of the Arab and Muslim world long before the establishment of Israel.
Blaming Ashkenazim for antisemitism in the region erases the history of the Sephardi and Mizrahi Jews that Arab societies persecuted, expelled, and in many cases violently dispossessed.
Israel exists because repeated attempts to persecute, expel, and kill Jews convinced many that a Jewish state was necessary for their survival.
If Arab societies had consistently accepted Jewish self-determination and equal citizenship, the history of the region might have looked very different.
Moreover, segments of Arab leadership actively collaborated with antisemitic movements in Europe and helped create the conditions that displaced large numbers of Jews.
To blame Jews for seeking refuge and self-determination after centuries of persecution is to blame the victim for the consequences of that persecution that you perpetuate.
Today, I exposed the true face of @_VanessaFrazier, the UN Secretary-General’s Special Representative for ‘Children and Armed Conflict’.
Before presenting yet another report against Israel, the facts came to light:
• She engaged with antisemitic social media accounts.
• She amplified defamatory accusations against Israel.
• She shared false allegations that proved to be unfounded.
Ms. Frazier is not the exception.
She reflects a deeper problem within parts of the UN, where bias against Israel too often outweighs the commitment to truth and impartiality.
The United Nations’ persistent refusal to accept institutional accountability for the systematic militant exploitation of UNRWA schools represents a severe breach of its humanitarian mandate.
While UN investigative bodies issue casualty figures and allegations against Israel, the UN continues to evade responsibility for years of documented militant infiltration within institutions operating under its own authority.
The UN relies on the boilerplate defence that it does not “authorize or condone” child soldier recruitment or radicalization, yet deflecting blame onto external factors is an evasion of legal and administrative responsibility.
UNRWA operated as the direct employer, administrator, and funder of these facilities. Continuing to finance an educational system after years of documented evidence of militant infiltration constitutes active complicity.
The UN’s internal definition of accountability relies entirely on superficial, reactive policing rather than structural reform.
For over a decade, independent watchdogs and intelligence agencies presented the UN with granular evidence of radicalized curricula, antisemitic instructional materials, and Hamas personnel serving as school principals. The UN consistently dismissed these warnings as politically motivated.
Furthermore, the UN’s timeline of self-policing exposes its lack of genuine integrity.
The implementation of concrete, systemic reforms, such as the oversight mechanisms demanded by the 2024 Colonna Report, was delayed for more than a year following the October 7, 2023 massacres.
The UN only enacted minor structural changes after facing catastrophic exposure of its staff’s direct participation in terrorism and subsequent funding freezes by major Western donors.
By prioritizing bureaucratic self-preservation over immediate, total demilitarization, the UN has demonstrated that its accountability measures are merely transactional responses to financial pressure, rather than a proactive commitment to international law.
I've never see Jews stringing up little girls because they wore lip gloss or jeans. I've never heard of Jewish rape gangs. I've never heard of Jews forcing their women to live every moment of their public life peering through a slit in a black sheet. Jews never blew up our buildings or beheaded Christians.
You have a problem with Israel. Fine, register your geopolitical opposition to our foreign policy with regards to Israel. But I've never been afraid of what a Jew would do to me or my daughters.
The UN inquiry’s conclusions were not based on an independent criminal investigation with access to all evidence, forensic examination of individual incidents, or judicial findings.
They are the interpretations of a political body relying largely on witness testimony and secondary sources, and neither its methodology nor its conclusions have been judicially substantiated.
Presenting these allegations as established facts rather than contested political findings is misleading.
Because Israel has maintained military control over the West Bank since 1967 and considers it a critical security buffer and the source of repeated attacks against Israeli civilians.
Whether you agree with that presence or views it as an illegal occupation is irrelevant, the reality is that Israeli troops are there, exercise security authority there, and can detain people there.
Travelling into that environment and subsequently threatening Israelis carries obvious risks for detainment.
#Hamas terrorists murdered a young Tanzanian in Israel because Islamic jihadists hate Africans like they hate Israelis.

@UN@unicefchief The UN has been accused of allowing educational environments in Palestinian territories to become vehicles for militant indoctrination and the recruitment of minors as child soldiers.
Pointing to documented cases of militant indoctrination and the recruitment of minors in Gaza, including concerns raised about activities in and around UN facilities, and then declaring that children are never combatants, flattens a far more complicated and tragic reality.
Children should never be used in war, and when armed groups recruit or indoctrinate minors, including within UNRWA educational environments, that fact cannot simply be ignored.

Eine jüdische Mutter holt ihren Sohn vom Kindergarten ab. Er schläft. In den Armen seiner muslimischen Erzieherin.
Mit dieser Realität bin ich in Israel groß geworden. Für viele ist diese Szene so selbstverständlich, dass sie sie nicht einmal hinterfragen. Andere triggert genau diese Selbstverständlichkeit so sehr, dass sie ihren Hass ins Netz tragen.
La FIFA prohíbe la antigüa bandera iraní, del León y el Sol, por considerarla “política” 🇮🇷
Luego, aprueba el uso del kufiya palestino como “expresión cultural”, a pesar de ser un símbolo de violencia 🏴
Esto no es neutralidad, es doble rasero.
@FIFAcom, ¿podrían explicarlo?
“Hasbara” is a convenient way to dismiss arguments without engaging with them.
If you’ve “all read up,” then you already know the Arab states and Palestinian leadership rejected partition and went to war to explicitly "exterminate the Jews" and prevent a Jewish state from existing.
You also know the population displacements occurred in the context of that war.
Pretending the war’s origins are irrelevant is not historical literacy.
A Zionist is someone who supports the existence of Israel. You seem confused by the way you use the term.
You didn’t say, “I disagree with his view of Palestinians.” You said, “Another Zionist bites the dust,” and celebrated his resignation specifically because he is a Zionist.
Do you even know what his views on Palestinians are, or are you simply making a preconceived assumption?
Your immediate reaction was to celebrate the removal of “a Zionist,” so it should be hardly surprising that people conclude your objection is to the existence of Israel.
Interesting how quickly “human rights” rhetoric turns into celebrating someone being driven out of public life because they support the existence of Israel.
If your reaction to disagreement is “another Zionist bites the dust,” you’re not defending pluralism or historical inquiry. You’re cheering ideological purges and dehumanization.
The loss of the Arab war to exterminate the Jews in 1948 and the resulting displacement of populations were consequences of their war to prevent a Jewish state from existing.
Calling the outcome of that war “ethnic cleansing” while ignoring its origins strips the events of their historical context and echoes the original rejection of Jewish partition that caused the war itself.
Stop trying to exterminate the Jews and then acting like the victims. The Nakba is literally the consequence of that failed war.
At no point was the Jewish state’s legitimacy accepted, nor has there been a broadly accepted Palestinian claim to borders that would not place it in direct conflict with Israel’s continued existence.
The fact that the UN and other NGOs platform rejectionist and eliminationist movements only perpetuates the conflict and reinforces the necessity for additional security measures in Israel.
It is "self-defence."
It’s from the Torah, which is the “Old Testament” of the Bible.
The Talmud is not the primary source. Your own quote literally identifies where the principle comes from.
You can’t even read your own propaganda.
Yes, it is a religious commandment of self-defence: if someone comes to kill you, you are permitted to act first to save your own life.
Pretending the Talmud invented it, or that a millennia-old principle of self-defence uniquely explains modern Israeli policy, is historical reductionism.
