I’m Jewish. I have family history that makes what’s happening in NYC right now impossible to ignore. This past week, mobs targeted synagogues in Brooklyn. A child was attacked. This is not politics, this is hatred, in plain sight, and too many people are scrolling past it. I made this video because silence has a cost. History has proven that. “Never Again” is not a slogan. It’s a responsibility. And that responsibility is yours too, whether you’re Jewish or not. Watch this. Share it. Say something. #neveragain

[Rawan Osman روان عثمان @RawaneOsmane]

Those who hate Israel have no idea what this country is — or who these people are.

The first time I brought my son to Israel, he was shocked by almost everything. Young men and women his age — sometimes smaller than him — walking around with enormous guns. The noise. The familiarity. The way people drive, honk, argue, shout.

And perhaps most confusing of all: the way strangers in Jerusalem would suddenly come up to me, crying, and hug me.

He would be startled and whisper, “Tell them not to touch you.”

He couldn’t understand why people we had never met would embrace me like family.

Now he’s slowly beginning to understand.

Random people who have never heard of me — and who have no idea Adam is my son — treat him with a warmth he still finds hard to believe. In Germany, people are polite. Here, people are family.

He doesn’t speak Hebrew.

One day, on his way to the gym, a siren went off. He asked a stranger where the nearest shelter was. The man didn’t just point — he walked him there and ended up becoming his friend.

Another day he went boxing with a group of Russian guys. We had been warned about how tough they were.

They adopted him instantly and asked when he wanted to compete.

Wherever I take him, people spoil him.

On his first visit, I made sure he saw every side of Israeli society. He spent time on a left-wing kibbutz. With a religious family with five children. With yeshiva students. With soldiers. At a Shabbaton with modern Orthodox friends. Around Shabbat tables with religious Jews, and with atheists. Young people, old people — every shade of Israeli life.

And then I asked my old mentor, Yossi Klein Halevi to take Adam out for lunch and answer his long list of questions.

I have my own answers to many of those questions.

But I don’t have Yossi’s patience — or his wisdom.

Adam asked why security here can sometimes feel so intense.

After narrowly missing three terror attacks — by a single day — at the Allenby Crossing, in Jerusalem, and in Jaffa, he no longer needed much explanation for why Israelis carry guns.

And after speaking to Israeli Arabs, he began to understand how complex life here really is — and how simplistic and ignorant the slogans of Israel’s haters often are.

So thank you, Israel, for looking after my son.

The same son whom much of our extended family decided to punish because of my political choices — because of my support for Israel.

Now he understands why Israel is worth this.

And more.

Shabbat shalom 🤍

Learned the hard way: if your prior authorized 100% coverage preventive colonoscopy finds a polyp, insurance reclassifies it as “diagnostic” and bills you $1000s. The whole point of screening is to catch issues early. Penalizing patients discourages life-saving care. @UHC

There was a ceasefire on October 6, 2023.

Then came a brutal attack: mass murder, kidnappings, sexual violence, looting, and the firing of thousands of rockets into Israeli towns.
Today, 59 hostages are still held in Gaza.

Yet the overwhelming pressure from the international community seems directed almost entirely at Israel.

Why is there so little pressure on Hamas, the governing authority in Gaza, to release the hostages?
Why is there no urgent demand for Hamas to surrender and end the suffering for both Israelis and Palestinians?

Are we asking the right questions?
Are we holding the right side accountable?

SJP @Columbia 's last post on Instagram was May 16th, 2023, until October 6th, 2023, where they had announced their return.

Very odd coincidence, don't you think?

The murder of Kfir and Ariel Bibas is not mentioned in the UN report on children in conflict zones.
According to the @UN, Jewish children don't count.

🚨 EXCLUSIVE: The Terror Pipeline from Hamas to @Reddit

***New investigation by me, @ashleyrindsberg, for @piratewires reveals a coordinated propaganda network that controls dozens of subreddits.***

Rooted in the r/Palestine subreddit, the network launders terrorist messaging from Hamas, Hezbollah, and other US-designated terror groups into mainstream platforms—and Reddit is at the center of it.

A web of radical activist moderators belonging to the netwo controls over 100 subreddits, including some of the largest non-political communities on the platform. This includes r/Documentaries (20M members) to r/PublicFreakout (4.7M)

The network's activities extend deep into @X, @Quora, @Wikipedia and other major platforms.

Known as "data poisoning," this effort is aimed at manipulating search results, AI models, and online discourse at scale.

Key findings:

- The r/Palestine network (270K members) runs a private Discord server where “task forces” coordinate vote brigading, censorship, and amplification of terrorist-linked content across Reddit, X, Quora, TikTok, and Wikipedia.

- Terror propaganda is funneled from Hamas’ Al-Qassam Brigades, Hezbollah, and Palestinian Islamic Jihad via Telegram aggregators like Resistance News Network (RNN), which translates and launders the content into the open internet.

- Reddit’s trusted status in Google search and AI models like ChatGPT makes it a powerful weapon for information warfare, ensuring terrorist messaging surfaces in top search results and AI-generated responses.

- Despite repeated warnings, Reddit’s trust and safety team has refused to act, with sources saying top executives have laughed off concerns.

The hostages who returned from Hamas-ISIS captivity came back in a horrific condition.

They describe severe physical, psychological, and sexual abuse at the hands of their Hamas captors, Islamic Jihad, and residents of the Gaza Strip.

In the deal, Israel released innocent people who were kidnapped from their beds, while the Palestinians demanded and got the release of murderers and rapists.

Listen to the testimonies:

More antisemitic poison permeating out of our high schools.

Meet San Jose, CA based English & Drama teacher from @delmarhs - Joseph Calabrese

When not teaching about Shakespeare, Calabrese posted the following to LinkedIn:
- hopes to see Israelis hunted down like the Germans in WWII
- refers to Jews as "brutal genocidal oppressors"
- claims that Israelis made a pact with 'evil' to murder children, perpetuating blood libel

If you're still wondering whether Students for 'Justice' in Palestine (SJP) supports and sympathizes with terror, this short thread is for you.

To put it mildly, sometimes truth is stranger than fiction.

All wars end with negotiation, but it's hard to negotiate when the other side's bargaining position is "you all die and disappear."
