Exactly. There is no genocide in Gaza, actually the opposite. Israel has taken extraordinary measures to prevent civilian harm in urban warfare, to provide aid (food, water, electricity, even vaccinating the entire population since October 7th).
Jews fought alongside us African Americans when we fought for our rights during the Civil Rights Movement. When the civil rights of Jews are threatened, we must stand by them!
Thank you @fmakhzoumi for your great work. The people of Israel and Lebanon want peace and prosperity together, and your efforts have been pivotal in promoting that 🇮🇱🕊️🇱🇧
Today’s agreement announced in Washington marks a historic turning point and presents Lebanon with a rare opportunity to fully restore its sovereignty, reclaim its national decision-making, and open a new chapter of security, stability, and peace.
We unequivocally support this process, led by the Lebanese state under the leadership of President Joseph Aoun and the Government, as the only serious national path capable of bringing decades of conflict to an end and addressing the outstanding issues between Lebanon and Israel.
For this process to succeed, all arms must be placed exclusively under the authority of the Lebanese state. Hezbollah’s weapons outside the framework of state legitimacy must come to an end, and the Lebanese Armed Forces must assume full security responsibility throughout the South as a first step toward extending the state’s authority across all Lebanese territory.
At the same time, Israel’s full withdrawal from all occupied Lebanese territory remains an indispensable pillar of any just and lasting agreement that delivers security and peace for both sides.
Today is not merely the beginning of a new round of negotiations. It is the beginning of Lebanon’s path to reclaiming its state: one state, one army, one legitimate authority over arms, full sovereignty, and lasting peace.
Reasonable Democrats are going to have to get off their couches, roll up their sleeves and start organizing real voters on the ground.
We can no longer rely only on TV ads, digital spend and endorsements. Just donating from afar and complaining about the DSA won’t cut it.
The DSA (Democratic Socialists of America) can beat moderates in a growing number of blue strongholds. Why? Because the DSA has patiently built an army of on-the-ground organizers — who go to meetings, help each other, study together and THEN work to turn out voters on Election Day. That army grows every day — election or no election. Their investment in real people grows (and compounds) with each election cycle. The DSA has a bigger army, every time, win or lose.
But at the end of any election, all moderate Dems have for their efforts is a bunch of ads that nobody will ever see again. That’s not going to work anymore.
If you are a Democrat who believes in opportunity, dignity and democracy for all — but you don’t hate rich people, cops, free enterprise, the West, Israel and the United States of America — I’m talking to you!
Israel made peace with Egypt in 1979, and hasn’t attacked it since.
Israel made peace with Jordan in 1994, and hasn’t attacked it since.
Saudi Arabia never attacked Israel, and Israel hasn’t attacked Saudi.
Maybe Israel just defends itself against enemy belligerents.
Iran attacked the entire region, from the UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait, and Jordan to Israel. We will never accept Iran controlling the Strait of Hormuz. We will never surrender to terrorist blackmail. We answer aggression with strength, not concessions. We do not normalize the Islamic regime's aggression. We confront it. This message is for President Trump and his new bad friends on the phone: the Middle East does not reward appeasement. It respects strength, resolve, and those willing to defend their sovereignty.
Watch closely new video showing the U.N. reaction: as courageous former hostage Ilana Gritzewsky confronts October 7th denier Reem al-Salem—by recounting the horrific abuse she suffered from Hamas—the U.N. rapporteur on violence against women sits there stone-faced. No empathy.
BREAKING: Palestinian Aber Kawas has won her NY State Senate seat.
Here she is claiming 9/11 was America’s fault because of our “system of capitalism, racism, white supremacy and Islamophobia.”
This was humiliation. No one in modern history has made America wait and beg for negotiations. This was the moment JD Vance should have returned to Washington. The Islamic regime did this on purpose. Trump, if you don't understand politics, you should at least understand protocol.
The visuals from Switzerland:
• The U.S. delegation entered well before the Iranians. In diplomacy, the side with leverage doesn't wait in the room. You claim to be leading and winning, yet you arrived first. First mistake.
• Ghalibaf did not enter while the press was inside. JD Vance did. Another mistake. It looked as though you didn't just abandon allies, including Israel, you also diminished America's image by ignoring basic diplomatic protocol.
• The Iranian foreign minister entered last and refused to shake hands. We didn't need photographs to tell us who looked confident and who looked desperate, but these images made it easy for the world to draw its own conclusions.
.@NYCMayor Mamdani’s hateful rhetoric is extremely dangerous. He knows precisely what he is doing and saying.
Imagine if he said this about any other ethnic group. How would people react?
Lebanese MP Camille Chamoun defends Israel:
“Nothing in war is humane — but if Israel wanted to annihilate Shiites in Lebanon, it wouldn’t give warnings. We’d be seeing 100,000 casualties, not 2,000.”
Floridians DON’T deserve to see their tax dollars go to give an antisemite a megaphone.
Kayne West’s concert at Raymond James Stadium is an INSULT to our Jewish Community and our taxpayers.
I have a petition on this. Make your voice heard. https://t.co/yIIDPDjZTQ
The stupidity of these @Stanford students to take the greatest opportunity for equality in humanity ever and to really free humanity and go walk out on @google and @sundarpichai that's pioneered that. Biased, idiotic, short-sighted and very selfish. Selfish because they ignored the bottom 3 billion people on this planet that could benefit from AI and they are worried about their misinformed selfish self-interest.

Join me in once again calling for the resignation of @TheLancet editor Richard Horton.
Publishing a petition calling for the boycott of the Israeli Medical Association is an absolute disgrace. Medicine should bring physicians together in service of patients, not weaponize professional organizations for political campaigns.
Just as it failed the public on the #COVID19 origins debate, The Lancet is again positioning itself as a political actor rather than a medical journal.
Look at her venom; her poisonous hatred. This individual, @Ilhan, does not belong in the United States. She makes a mockery of what it means to be an American.
Yes it was made by a Jewish company during the British mandate.
Do you know what else is younger than this manhole? More than 60% of the world’s nation states. Roughly two thirds of the UN’s member states were created AFTER Israel was created.
A large majority of these new countries experienced significant violence, deaths & forced migrations during their formation.
60–70 of those new states saw wars of independence, civil wars, ethnic conflict, partition violence, or mass displacement.
But according to antisemites, it is only the single solitary Jewish state that lacks legitimacy.
There’s a reason they think that and it is precisely the same reason that Jewish state must endure.
