🇺🇸 🇮🇱 American actor Adam Sandler:
"I would always defend Israel. I can't stand people who criticize Israel without being in the place of the Israeli people. I hate the lies they spread and their lack of knowledge. I am proud to defend the Israelis."
Tonight a man disrupted Shabbat services at Central Synagogue, punched a 63 y/o woman in the face, and attacked a security guard.
Jews in New York have spent years warning that there is a target on their backs. This time it was live-streamed.
The American Muslim & Multifaith Women’s Empowerment Council, led by @anilaali, will participate in this year’s Israel Day Parade on Fifth Avenue in New York City. It is believed to be the first time in history that a Muslim group is marching in the parade, according to @JNS_org.

🚨BREAKING: According to reports, Nick Valensi, lead guitarist of The Strokes and a Sephardi Jew, decided to drop out of the band’s tour because of the antisemitic comments recently made by frontman Julian Casablancas
BREAKING from @Jerusalem_Post: A Palestinian man from Gaza has formally demanded that the International Criminal Court investigate 14 Hamas leaders for crimes committed against Palestinians.
The man lost his wife, children, and other family members during the war in Gaza. He argues that if Hamas had not committed war crimes against Palestinians, particularly the crime of using civilians as human shields, his family and countless other Gazans would still be alive.
War crimes and crimes against humanity listed in the submission include using civilians as human shields, attacking civilians, causing great suffering, destruction of property, excessive incidental death, injury, or damage, conscripting children, murder, extermination, torture, persecution, and more.
The Hamas leaders named in the submission are Izz al-Din al-Haddad, Khaled Mashaal, Mahmoud al-Zahar, Mohammed Odeh, Muhannad Rajab, Khalil al-Hayya, Mousa Abu Marzook, Ghazi Hamad, Izzat al-Rishq, Fathi Hamad, Nizar Awadallah, Husam Badran, Zaher Jabarin, and Basem Naim.
For decades, innocent Palestinians have paid the price for Hamas's genocidal war against Israel. They deserve justice.
The submission was filed on behalf of the Gazan man by American attorneys @ElliotMalin and Eli Rosenbaum and French attorney @sarah_scialom.
We as Americans are better than the leaders who condone and encourage antisemitism, silence the voices of Black voters, and allow hate to infect our society.
This New York Times "article" about Israel is such a journalistic atrocity that I actually feel stupid reading it out loud.
If everyone at the NYT who is responsible for this is not fired, then the publication will lose whatever shred of credibility it has left.
