@IsabelOakeshott@danwootton It never ceases to amaze me that the people who live to see jews suffer always deny it either if they do suffer or narrowly avoid suffering. One day someone will help me understand.
Need time, feeling overwhelmed right now. Am going to suggest that my son and daughter read it too. May help them. Dear Joan, november 14 2012. She gets to the soul of our grief.
@StigAbell finding it hard to put into words how i feel about the correspondent, i took your recommendation,did no research, i too lost my son and have blamed myself ever since. I think it has helped me. So thank you. (Kate read out my email recently about James’ death.)
Almost every UK media outlet spread numerous lies about the treatment of the flotilla activists in Israel.
Yet only @Telegraph published the news about the Gaza flotilla activists beaten by Spanish police.
Just one. Silence from the rest.
This is two-tier reporting.
Israel produced forensic evidence, videos, and 1000s of photos documenting the sexual violence of Oct 7.
The world stayed silent.
A handful of activists get off a boat making up sexual abuse claims against Israel.
And it becomes headline news.
Make it make sense.
@MattChorley we need your help, even less of a clue - been listening to since 9am- hope you understand- not even sure now if clearance given or not. #yesminister
“I have no more earth to cling to” 🎗️
Yosef Wiener, a Holocaust survivor who lost his grandson Yahav, his granddaughter Hadar, and her husband Itay on October 7th, has passed away. Before his passing, he wrote these inconceivable words:
"My name is Yosef Wiener, and I am 97 years old. I was saved from the fire of the Nazi beasts; my entire family was annihilated in that terrible inferno. I was severed from my deep roots, and I erected a monument of basalt stones in their memory.
Out of total exhaustion, out of despair, while drowning, I clung to the earth and planted myself in Zion.
I married Aviva, and together we raised two magnificent children, Ofer and Nurit. From Ofer and Michal, four grandchildren were born to us in Kfar Aza. From Nurit and Miki, six grandchildren were born to us in Kfar Aza. I had reached the stage of a family tree firmly planted in the soil of the homeland, bearing fruit.
But suddenly, from within the fences of evil, October 7th, 2023, arrived. The terrifying sights of fire and dust, the slaughter and horrific murder of innocents reached me once again.
My grandson, dearer to me than all, Yahav (of blessed memory), was murdered while protecting his wife, Shaye-Lee, and his one-month-old daughter, Shaya.
My granddaughter, dearer to me than all, Hadar (of blessed memory), and her husband Itay (of blessed memory), were murdered while protecting their ten-month-old twins, Roee and Guy.
Once again, I am at the end of my strength, in despair, drowning.
And I have no more earth to cling to."

@ShelaghFogarty@AvantiWestCoast Warning! Don’t ask for help at a station! Was given completely false information last week whilst travelling to london from crewe. Three people asked - hatrick of misinformation!
@TimesRadio find it hard to put into words the pain caused by listening to two non jews (one giggling) justifying the headlining of an out and proud antisemite.
