Marking one year since October 7th, we reflect on the unspeakable loss and devastation of that day. Every day since the nightmare has been a continuation of the nightmare. We call for an end to the war, for the safe return of the hostages, and for the bloodshed to stop.
"It is a year since my mother was murdered at her kibbutz. Out of this horror, surely peace must come"

I’ve found a political reawakening, and learned that the only way this will end is if we turn our enemies into our partners.
Thank you, Martin, for being such an inspiration and an important voice in the fight to save Israeli democracy. We will miss you dearly. via @NYTimes https://t.co/4kZH5KznJn
Smotrich has carried out an administrative enema on the head of the Civ. Admin. (excuse the image). Now he runs the West Bank, violating the prohibition on annexation of occupied territory. The international community does nothing.

Remember that we shouldn’t be divided as Israelis vs Palestinians. We stand together. It’s those of us who Believe in justice, peace and equality and those who don’t - yet.

Hamas murdered my parents. Six months later Israel's war of revenge threatens us all.
71 percent of Jewish Israelis polled believe that "revenge for October 7">

Record construction, minimal law enforcement against illegal outposts, and substantial budgets marked the year, reflecting unparalleled support for settlers.

Looking forward to hosting @maozinon and @hamzeAwawde at the end of this month.
Leaders like Maoz and Hamze are the inspiration for empathy and hope to counter violence and this devastating reality.
A growing number of prominent Israeli political and military leaders are now calling for their own country to support a ceasefire in exchange for Hamas releasing the remaining 136 hostages. They include thread 🧵
Netanyahu and his partners in the Israeli government just want to preserve the status quo. They say No to any possible solution. But this is a status quo of occupation, of violence and of grief and death. And it's bad for both Palestinians and Jews.

Some 30 Israeli civil society groups, led by Standing Together and Women Wage Peace, led a protest in Tel Aviv against the war in Gaza. According to organizers, citing the police, over 2,000 people participated in the demonstration / @LindaDayan9

Even when it seems impossible - we need to be able to imagine a different future - a future with freedom and safety for all. Once we can imagine this future, we need to organize our communities towards it. That’s what we’re doing. @DaoodRula
בסופו של דבר יש רק דרך אחת להשיג ביטחון, וזה הסדר מדיני. לא לכל בעיה יש פתרון צבאי, ולרצון של מיליוני בני אדם לחיות בחירות ובעצמאות - בטח שאין פתרון צבאי. אפשר ללכת לעוד סבב של מלחמה ולעוד אחד, רק יצוצו ארגוני טרור אחרים והנהגות אחרות. אם רוצים ביטחון, צריך פתרון, לא עוד מלחמה.
