A new partner in New England: Boston-based New Balance has secured the naming rights to the Patriots’ new training facility, which now will be called the New Balance Athletics Center, and will serve as the team’s official athletic footwear and apparel provider.
It's not about whether you stand with Israel or Palestine.
I try to stay out of political commentary, but it's important to make one point clear:
There are no winners in war. You might have friends who live in Israel or Palestine, or more likely; are Jewish or Muslim & not know what to say to them.
Send love.
I'm a Jew, feeling extremely concerned, and sending messages of love to both my Arabic and Jewish friends, they are sending back to me - none of us want this to escalate like it will.
It's not all hate, we can all coexist, love is more powerful.
This being said, Hamas is not Palestine. You are not choosing a side by supporting Israel (who just got invaded), you are showing your humanity.
Hamas is a terrorist organisation with a mission to eradicate the Jewish race.
The majority of Palestinians do not support Hamas, & will suffer as a result too.
In their attack, they not only killed more Jews in one day since World War 2, but many Palestinians and Arabs as well.
Would you ever feel uncomfortable sharing your profound sympathy to any other country given this situation?
It's OK to say you stand with Israel in this situation, and not stay silent when a terrorist organisation kills women and children in their street, because of what race they are.
Would you ever stand for that, for any other race, or do Jews not count?
If you find yourself "celebrating" anything that's happening or that's going to happen - be very clear, you are down a dark path.
You're supporting the wrong side.
Never find joy in anyone's suffering.
Support love.
Fight hate.
PS: There are very few actual Middle East experts in the world.
You dont need to have an opinion (especially if you aren't connected to either side of the conflict).
You still can play a role, and support people in private - by sending love to those who might need it.
You may have gone from vaccine expert to Web3 genius to AI guru well, but it's probably best you stay out of this one (especially if you aren't Jewish or Arabic!)
Said with a heavy heart, and a lot of love ❤️
There are no winners in war.
I've always chosen the non-standard path through life. For a long time I was ashamed of this, of being weird, but I've started to see that "weird" is the edge of human civilization creating something new. So, be weird and be kind, the universe is waiting to see what we create.
A few times in my life I've seen friendships destroyed over money. This never made sense to me. Why betray your integrity and relationships for financial gain? In the end, this leads to an unfulfilling life and, in the long run, probably less money anyway.
I’m heartbroken for the victims of the senseless massacre that took place in Colorado, but I’m mad as hell too. The 2nd amendment doesn’t mean white males can massacre people at will. If you agree with me RT 👇🏼👇🏼 and make sure the GQP sees this video. #GunReformNow#FTheNRA
STAY WOKE: I understand that people want to get back to normal. But normal is toxic for us. Keep your knee on these politians and keep them working in our collective interest. Continue to post, inform and complain. They’re hoping you go back to posting bullshit that don’t matter.
