When firefighters are heroes, children dream of saving lives.

When athletes and stars are heroes, children dream of fame and success.

But in Palestinian society, the “heroes” are those who murder Jews.

This cannot go on.

You cannot build peace while terrorists are glorified as martyrs.
You cannot teach hatred and expect harmony.

In Palestinian textbooks and mosques, a culture of hate has festered for years.
If peace is ever to be possible, it starts with education, not indoctrination.

And remember: UNRWA is responsible for this education system of hate.
If you fund UNRWA, you are funding terror.

NEW: @UW became the latest stage for an ongoing national disgrace: A mob of antisemitic, pro-Hamas extremists took over a building and held it hostage in the name of “resistance.”

This was a textbook example of domestic terrorism fueled by Jew-hate.

🛑 Israel has consistently warned about the extensive infiltration of Hamas into @UNRWA.

🛑 Israel has consistently warned about the abuse of UNRWA's staff and facilities to advance terrorist activity against 🇮🇱.

🛑 UNRWA staff actively participated in the October 7th massacre.

🛑 In July 2024 Israel provided @UNRWA a partial list of 100 HAMAS operatives employed by UNWRA in Gaza. Yet, the UN has not taken any action on this issue.

🛑 Just last week, one of the #UNRWA staff members, Mohammad Abu Itiwi, who participated in the October 7th massacre, attacking and kidnapping innocent Israelis who hid in a bomb shelter near Kibbutz Reim, was eliminated by the @IDF.

The Secretary General of the @UN condemned the killing of this individual, instead of taking action against him back in July, when the list was given to the UN.

🛑 Israel remains committed to its obligations under international law. In this respect, Israel is dedicated to expand humanitarian assistance to the residents of the Gaza Strip through international organizationsand NGO's that are not involved in terrorism, and will continue to work toward achieving this aim with relevant partners such as the WFP, UNICEF, WHO and other organizations.

@elicalebon Are there any Jews in Lebonon?

[Isaac Choua @ChouaIsaac]

I'm a Lebanese 🇱🇧 Jew.

The narrative often presented around this image is misleading: “These PLO fighters were protecting the synagogue.” This couldn’t be further from the reality faced by Jews living in Lebanon during that time. This was NOT their modus operandi.

In fact, the Lebanese president deployed the army to protect our community during the Yom Kippur War (1973) — no aggression was directed at us. So, who would the PLO have been protecting us from, if not from themselves?

One of the first Jews killed in our community was my friend’s great-grandfather. He was killed by a sniper while serving as the community’s gravedigger. His body lay unattended in the street for days, too dangerous to retrieve due to the sniper’s presence. The sight of animals desecrating his remains is a memory seared into my mother’s mind—a cruel irony given his role in the community.

In the 1970s, Lebanon was engulfed in a brutal civil war, largely exacerbated by the PLO forces expelled from Jordan after Black September. They attempted to seize control of Lebanon, destabilizing Lebanon. Amidst this chaos, the PLO established strongholds and viewed us as enemies, simply because of our identity. We weren't their only target, but this is the Jewish perspective—from my family and from others who eventually found refuge in New York and Israel after passing through Lebanon.

My family fled Lebanon in 1977 to escape the escalating violence, but my uncles remained. They witnessed Israel’s bombing of the Maghen Abraham synagogue in 1982—a devastating event for our community as this synagogue was our gem, our symbol.

For my uncle, the relationship with Israel was deeply complicated and fraught with mixed emotions.

The PLO’s presence in Beirut was not just political; it was deeply personal. In Wadi Abu Jamil, our Jewish neighborhood, they stored weapons in the very places we lived and prayed. Even the Maghen Abraham synagogue itself was used for storing arms. These weren’t rumors; these were events witnessed by the very people whose lives were threatened—my uncle among them.

Beyond Lebanon, the situation was similarly dire. In Syria, Palestinians didn’t just fight against Israel; they became enforcers for Hafez al-Assad’s regime, targeting Jewish communities there as well. The New York Times reported in 1974 that Jews in Damascus were virtual prisoners in their own homes during the Yom Kippur War, fearing retribution from both Palestinians and Syrians.

Many Syrian Jews fled through Lebanon en route to Israel - many at the time saw Lebanon as “Gan Eḏen” (Garden of Eden) and wanted to stay longer (I've heard this from multiple members of the community).

But safety was an illusion. In the 1970s, my best friend’s family—Syrian Jewish refugees—were abducted right outside the Maghen Abraham synagogue. He was literally thrown into a barrel by Palestinians and held while the Jewish community negotiated his release for a large sum of money. Otherwise, he would have been sent back to Syria, where he would have faced torture or worse. This is just one personal story I'm sharing, with names and faces I can recall, but it’s emblematic of countless others.

Another friend’s grandfather was robbed at gunpoint by PLO thugs in front of his children. To call these people “protectors” is beyond absurd. My father risked everything to smuggle community members to safety in the mountains, navigating through dangerous PLO checkpoints to reach places like Aley and Bhamdoun.

You don’t have to believe me or these accounts. But these are not just stories; they’re the lived experiences of a community under siege.

I know what my family and friends endured, and the scars that the PLO left behind are deep and lasting.

We will not rest until Agam and all of the hostages are home.

Welcome to the “Can’t make this stuff up” show.

A barbaric terrorist organization attacks a democratic country, murders over a thousand innocent people, rapes, beheads, and burns countless others. The world takes their side. Can’t make this stuff up.

After committing those horrible atrocities, the same organization releases casualty numbers from their side, and the world believes them blindly. Can’t make this stuff up.

In 2024, and Jewish students and professors are being blocked from entering their own universities and the Jews who are on campus are being bullied, harassed, and assaulted. In 2024. Can’t make this stuff up.

The camp that leads all the antisemitic activities on and off campus call themselves liberals and progressives even though the people they are marching for share zero progressive or liberal values. Can’t make this stuff up.

There are anti Jewish marches throughout America calling to globalize the intifada, aka blow up buses around the world, all in the name of the Middle East conflict but not one such march happened in the actual Middle East. Can’t make this stuff up.

Throughout all the elite American universities, there are actual criminals and terrorists openly calling for genocide and somehow the universities are cool with this. Can’t make this stuff up.

International organizations like the UN and the ICJ are calling to issue warrants for the arrest of Israeli officials but not a single word about Hamas. Can’t make this stuff up.

International pressure on Israel to end the war is increasing with close to no pressure on Hamas to release the hostages. Can’t make this stuff up.

Words like genocide and apartheid are being thrown around in regard to Israel when in reality, Israel’s enemy Hamas has declared its actual desire to commit genocide, something it tried on October 7th. Add to that that Arabs are free in Israel but if a Jew steps foot in a Palestinian village or town, he won’t leave alive. Can’t make this stuff up.

The Red Cross has not visited Israeli hostages once since October 7th, and everyone seems to be ok with that. They had one job. Can’t make this stuff up.

The countries/regions attacking Israel include Gaza, Judea and Samaria (aka the West Bank), Iran, Syria, Lebanon, Yemen, and that’s just on the military front. Yet somehow, Israel is the oppressor, Israel is the strong side. Can’t make this stuff up.

There are actual people comparing innocent women and children held in Hamas dungeons to mass murderers held in Israeli prisons. Can’t make this stuff up.

There are many thousands of people calling for a ceasefire and then in the next breath, they call to globalize the intifada. Those two things can’t co-exist. Can’t make this stuff up.

The same people accusing Israel of genocide are the same people chanting from the river to the sea, which literally means the erasure of Israel, aka actual genocide of Israelis. Can’t make this stuff up.

Actual Hamas terrorists are hiding in Rafah and yet the world wants to prevent Israel from entering and eliminating them. Can’t make this stuff up.

There are still people going with the “It’s not antisemitism. It’s just anti Zionism.” claim when random Jews are being attacked simply for being Jewish. Can’t make this stuff up.

Even according to Hamas’ made up numbers, this war has significantly less casualties than countless conflicts around the world, and yet, it’s all anyone’s talking about. Can’t make this stuff up.

Radical Islam has become a global plague that is infiltrating America as we speak, and no one has the guts to say it out loud. Can’t make this stuff up.

The fact that Hamas did what they did came as a surprise to many, even though murdering Jews and infidels is mentioned in the Quran many times. Can’t make this stuff up.

Thousands use the freedom of speech given to them by the United States to chant “Death to America.” on American soil. Can’t make this stuff up.

This entire war from beginning to end makes zero sense and it seems like no one else is paying attention.

What happened to logic? What happened to reason? Morality? Ethics? Truth?

What happened to critical thinking?

In such a short time, the world has gone nuts and we all just go on with our day as if any of this is normal.

Can’t make this stuff up.
