Bill Clinton: “In 2000, Palestinians were offered a state on the entire West Bank and east Jerusalem as its capital. Israel accepted, but Palestinians refused. They did not care about a homeland for the Palestinians. All they wanted was to kill Israelis.”
Arab countries took in 5.5 million Syrian refugees. Ask yourself, why isn't any Arab country willing to take even one Palestinian “refugee”? Why has Egypt spent billions of dollars building a 7-layer wall with Gaza? 👇
What do these Arab states know about Palestinians?
They were all taken hostage on October 7th and were murdered by Hamas terrorists while in captivity in Gaza.
The same terrorists that killed 7 Canadians.
Never forget the brutality of the Islamic Republic of Iran’s crimes — and its terrorist proxies being celebrated by so many.
May their memories be a blessing 🕯
This is a very difficult morning here in Israel.
Carmel, Ori, Eden, Almog, Alex, Hersh.
Murdered in cold blood by Hamas while in captivity.
May their memory be a blessing.
"Perfection is impossible.
In the 1,526 singles matches I played in my career, I won almost 80% of those matches.
But what percentage of points did I win?
54%
In other words, even top ranked tennis players win barely more than half the points they play.
When you lose ever second point on average, you learn not to dwell on every shot.
You teach yourself to think:
'Okay, I double faulted...it's only a point.'
'Okay, I came to the net and I got passed again...it's only a point.'
Even a great shot, an overhead backhand smash that ends up on ESPN's top 10 playlist – that too is just a point.
Here's why I'm telling you this.
When you're playing a point, it has to be the most important thing in the world. And it is.
But when it's behind you, it's behind you.
This mindset is crucial – because it frees you to fully commit to the next point with intensity, clarity, and focus."

Let’s clear this up once and for all.
1- Criticize the Israeli government? All good. No problem. Not antisemitism.
- Deny Israel’s right to exist? Not all good. Big problem. Pure antisemitism.
2- Care about innocent Palestinians? All good. No problem. Not antisemitism.
- Claiming Israel is indiscriminately and even intentionally killing innocent civilians? Not all good. Big problem. Pure antisemitism.
3- Calling for an end to violence? All good. No problem. Not antisemitism.
- Asking Israel to unilaterally cease fire while Hamas continues to fire rockets and commit terrorism against Israelis? Not all good. Big problem. Pure antisemitism.
4- Wishing for the self determination of the Palestinians after their educational system is reformed and stops spreading Jew hatred? All good. No problem. Not antisemitism.
- Chanting about the erasure of Israel from the map (that’s what ‘From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free’ means. No Israel.)? Not all good. Big problem. Pure antisemitism.
5- Investigating the events of October 7th? All good. No problem. Not antisemitism.
- Denying Hamas’ October 7th crimes and sexual violence against innocent Jews? Not all good. Big problem. Pure antisemitism.
6- Protesting against Israeli policy? All good. No problem. Not antisemitism.
- Attacking Jews or Jewish institutions including synagogues? Not all good. Big problem. Pure antisemitism.
The line between legitimate criticism and full blown Jew hatred is a fine one, but a good litmus test is to ask yourself “Is what I am demanding from the Jewish state something I demand from other nations/countries or is this opinion of mine only applicable to the Jews?”
Antisemitism is a very real and a very painful thing for Jews worldwide.
All of the above forms of antisemitism might seem harmless to you, but I assure you, every one of those things leads directly to verbal and physical violence against Jews.
Words matter and when you use your words to spread hate, hate spreads.
Let’s not confuse valid constructive criticism with the hatred of Jews.
Kapeesh?
Oh; and more thing. Don’t kid yourself that antisemites are all low life criminals.
As always, they also sit at the highest levels in society and mask their Jew hatred with sophistication.
They did it in Germany and they’re doing it today.
Today, some of the smartest and most successful people out there have proudly removed their masks and revealed their true face, a face of a person who thinks calling for genocide of the Jewish people is totally ok.
It’s not ok.
Never was and never will be. 🇮🇱💪✡️
Hamas released a video proudly showing how it keeps four Israeli teenagers hostage:
🔸Agam Berger (19)
🔸Liri Elbag (18)
🔸Daniela Gilboa (19)
🔸Karina Ariev (19)
"Never again" is now.
Police bringing food and coffee to demonstrators in the current context of the protests in Toronto was a very poor decision by @TorontoPolice . Unless the goal is to further undermine confidence in the way the force is handling the demonstrations.
Israel released Asraa Jabes (in return for a child hostage). Palestinian accounts are sharing her photo to show what Israel did to her face.
They conveniently don't mention that she has been burned when in 2015 she detonated a car bomb, which burned instead of exploding...
There has been an abhorrent and conspicuous absence of women’s organizations around the world unequivocally condemning the systematic rape and torture of women on October 7 by Hamas. Brutal gang rapes, sexual torture, and murder of fetuses happened- period. Where are the “BELIEVE THEM” voices? These crimes against women were in many cases documented by the terrorists themselves and broadcast for the world to see. Those of us who have fought for women’s rights and have sought to shout from the rooftops when women’s bodies are being used in war for the sadistic pleasure of perpetrators are astounded at how the world has been silent surrounding this. The UN (U.N. Women - the United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women) took 50 days to express “alarm”… First Lady of Israel Michal Herzog and Sheryl Sandberg have been trying to draw attention to this. Progressive feminists of the world: where are you?
