Not enough people are talking about the emotional ‘thrill’ that people in the ‘Pro-Palestine’marches and protests are getting each time they join (and plan), and how it may be a large driver of the participant’s action.

Durkheim called it ‘collective effervescence‘.

This weird unnamable attacker…

En la noche de ayer, el conflicto en Líbano se saldó con cuatro ataques de mortero a la base española Miguel de Cervantes, un casco azul serbio fallecido y dos españoles heridos.

Nuestra condena más absoluta a la violencia y todo nuestro apoyo a quienes se juegan la vida por defender la paz bajo la bandera de las Naciones Unidas.

Esperamos que todas las partes cumplan íntegramente el alto al fuego anunciado ayer y que las hostilidades terminen. La paz es el único futuro.

What’s harmful is spreading the Genocide Hoax that is fomenting real political violence and terrorism against Jews worldwide.

The problem isn’t “conflation.” It’s the libel, which forces Jews to pass a purity test based on a malicious lie.

תוך כדי מצעד הגאווה, המשרד לשוויון חברתי הודיע על הפסקת המימון של רכזי הגאווה ברשויות המקומיות ״בגלל בעיות תקציביות״. 50 רכזים קיבלו הודעה שלא יהיה מימון החל מסוף החודש

בעבר, יום ירושלים היה היום בו רבים מהישראלים הרגישו הזדהות עם עיר הבירה. עבורי ועבור מאות אלפים, היום הזה התחלף ביום של מצעד הגאווה בבירה.

חג גאווה שמח ירושלים!
מי ייתן ותהיי יותר פלורליסטית ומכבדת לכל תושבייך.

We are deeply saddened by the passing of Marjane Satrapi, the acclaimed Franco-Iranian artist, filmmaker, and author of the internationally celebrated graphic novel Persepolis who died at the age of 56.

Marjane Satrapi was a fearless voice for feminism, human rights, and freedom. Through her work and public engagement, she consistently advocated for women’s rights, standing in solidarity with the people of Iran and amplifying the message of the Woman, Life, Freedom movement on the global stage.

According to a statement from her family, Marjane Satrapi “died of sadness” a little more than a year after the passing of her husband, Mattias Ripa, a producer, actor, and screenwriter, who died on April 8, 2025.

Marjane Satrapi leaves behind a powerful cultural, artistic, and moral legacy. Her courage will continue to resonate far beyond her lifetime.

🚨 The UK has just removed Israel from the no-travel list

Most of Israel has now been listed as “green” under the departments classification system, meaning that prospective travelers should consult its specific guidance before departure.

Nonetheless, the Foreign Office still advises against all travel to Gaza, all areas within 500m of the Gaza border and the northern West Bank, as well as the Golan Heights.

I will say this again.
To me it is revealing that the signatories of this document seem utterly uninterested in instituting something similar for the tens of thousands of individuals living in the UK who served in Pakistan's armed forces, or the Razakars paramilitary, in 1971.

@polaroidsea1 Yes 👍

Israel's military escalation in Lebanon has killed and displaced civilians, destroyed infrastructure, and eroded space for diplomacy. It must end.

Hizballah must end attacks on Israel and disarm.

All sides must respect the ceasefire and engage with negotiations in good faith.

Reading about the Yom Kippur War and... jfc

"In a Dec 1973 address to the National Assembly, Syrian Defense Minister Tlass stated he awarded one soldier the Medal of the Republic for killing 28 Israeli prisoners with an axe, decapitating three and eating the flesh of one"

We deeply regret and unequivocally condemn the events that took place at our venue.
We wish to state with absolute clarity that we reject any form of antisemitism, racism, xenophobia, discrimination, or conduct that undermines the dignity of any individual.

@hizaga @MicahSaitama Aww love it

@hizaga @MicahSaitama One of my favorite words! 😆

[The Jerusalem Post @Jerusalem_Post]

Antisemitism watchdogs condemned a decision by organizers of the Rome Pride parade to bar Jewish LGBTQ groups from participating unless they explicitly condemned Israel over the war in Gaza.

Oh we're going to be seeing a lot more of this, I'm sure.

*How DARE you say we hate Jews! All we have done is asked Jews - and only Jews, you understand - to take a loyalty test, and if they fail to pass it we'll exclude them from society. Peace and love!*

@Daniel_Sugarman Maybe this was the security ‘emergency’ he had to attend this cutting his time in court short again.
