OPINION: America has voted for a lunatic, boundary-breaking authoritarian. Decent Americans, and the rest of the world, can only watch on in unnerved horror, Eleanor Clift writes. https://t.co/LnCbmvBRHB

On October 7, 2023, more than 1,200 women, men, and children were brutally murdered and kidnapped.

It's been 365 days since this horrific attack on Israel by Hamas, and we won't stop advocating AND praying for the remaining hostages to be returned home safely. 🎗️

[ADL @ADL]

We are devastated by the news that 6 of the hostages kidnapped on 10/7 were murdered in Hamas captivity. Their bodies were rescued by Israeli forces and brought home to their families.

We send our deepest condolences to the families of:

Ori Danino z”l
Carmel Gat z”l
Hersh Goldberg-Polin z”l
Alex Lubnov z”l
Almog Sarusi z”l
Edan Yerushalmi z”l

They will live on in the hearts of millions around the world. All of Am Yisrael is mourning tonight.

Baruch Dayan Ha’Emet. May their memories forever be a blessing. 🕯️

[Michael Dickson @michaeldickson]

Cruel Hamas ensured that the numbers went up to 320. And no more.

[Brianna Wu @BriannaWu]

Free Palestine is perfectly clear about what they want. The destruction of Israel. You cannot destroy Israel without genociding the population there.

They don’t want a ceasefire. They don’t want an end to violence. They want to be the ones doing the violence.

Charlottesville 2017: “Jews will not replace us.”

Columbia 2024: “Say it loud and say it clear, we don’t want no Zionists here.”

Same. Same.

At the end of 2023, we asked our supporters to help with a creative and collaborative map project: renaming Boston's subway stations.

We're thrilled to present the final map! Visit our gallery to to see the full thing, and become a supporter at https://t.co/DeHS7gQ4OI

Appealing to Taylor Swift will not end the war in Gaza.

Appealing to Mr Beast will not end the war in Gaza.

Appealing to Joe Biden, Keir Starmer, or Rishi Sunak will not end the war in Gaza.

But Hamas—if they release the hostages and dissolve—could actually end the war.

It’s 2023 and cities across America are cancelling Hanukkah celebrations for fear of angering Jihadist rioters. Yet, our leaders tell us our country has an “Islamophobia” problem. Let that sink in folks.

“It’s one thing if civilians die accidentally, it’s another thing to revel in the joy of killing civilians, that’s evil.”

-Elon Musk today after visiting Kfar Aza and seeing the video of Hamas killing civilians with joy

[Elisheva Black Jewish Mermaid Princess🧜🏾‍♀️👸🏾✡ @Eli7ChicnSweet]

Hamas broke the NEW ceasefire 15 minutes after it started. They started firing missiles at Israel again.
Why?
Because Hamas is LITERALLY A TERRORIST ORGANIZATION.
Their mission statement includes killing Jews everywhere we are.
Terrorism is who they are 💁🏾‍♀️

[Shelley Greenspan @ShelleyGspan]

NSC’s John Kirby: "Israel isn’t trying to wipe the Palestinian people off the map. Israel isn’t trying to wipe Gaza off the map. Israel is trying to defend itself against a genocidal terrorist threat. So if we’re going to start using that word, Fine. Let’s use it appropriately.”

[Chaskel Bennett @ChaskelBennett]

I am stunned and shaking. After 25 days of watching international support for Israel collapse and the condemnations against her coming fast and furious, seeing Germany standing up and loudly declaring its "historical responsibility to Israel" is not something I was prepared to view. The world has basically left the Jews to fend for ourselves, yet again. After the heinous atrocities of Hamas, the feckless @UN has failed in its very basic duty to condemn #Hamas and their savage crimes against humanity. As a grandchild of German born grandparents, I am not sure how to process the fact that Germany is getting this moment right while so many others, including UN Sec General @antonioguterres , are failing so abysmally to defend civilization itself and reaffirm Israel's duty and right to protect and defend itself. Absorb the sobering fact that it is the Germans that are lecturing the October 7th holocaust deniers and the world of the facts here. The GERMANS! It is hard to process this surreal moment in history especially for me a grandchild of Holocaust survivors. I'm writing the following words I never dreamed I would in this lifetime. Thank You Germany. @GermanyinUSA @GermanyUN @GermanyDiplo

[Jordyn @JordynTilchen]

Yes, it IS horrible that people in Gaza are dying. Human suffering is not something anyone should be happy about.

Yes, it IS horrible that Hamas has built terror infrastructure under civilian homes that Israel has no choice but to destroy.

No, it is not Israel’s fault that while targeting those tunnels, civilian buildings in Jabalia wound up collapsing and more people were killed.

I understand you’re distraught. Direct your frustration and heartbreak to the correct party: Hamas.

[Sean Savett Archived @NSC_Spox46]

While we continue to collect information, our current assessment, based on analysis of overhead imagery, intercepts and open source information, is that Israel is not responsible for the explosion at the hospital in Gaza yesterday.

[Howard Lovy @Howard_Lovy]

No. Israelis do not "do the same thing to Palestinians." There's no slaughter of entire communities, there's no kidnapping of women, the elderly, and children, there's no systematic rape of women before they are tortured and murdered. There's no equivalent to this barbarism.
