Check out this amazing article that covers how Soviet Jews and their children fight back against AntiZionism and Antisemitism including our very own founder @ilan_sinelnikov !

Israel is the only country in the world that has to continually justify its existence to the international community.

But I’m sure it has nothing to do with it being the world’s only Jewish state...

[Hen Mazzig @HenMazzig]

Oversimplifying the Israeli-Palestinian conflict just radicalizes people with misinformation on both sides.

It takes us no where closer to peace - rather empowers those who want us in an endless cycle of war and displacement.

Facts are our friend!

[Hen Mazzig @HenMazzig]

You say

Jews have
No history
No culture
No language

We say

We have millennials of steel survival
The cultures of every country we helped build in exile
Our tongues spit fire fueled by the gas you shoved down our throats

You say
Jews have no homeland

We say
You wish

On June 1st, 2001, 20 years ago today, a terrorist went to a youth nightclub, and blew himself up, killing 21 people, 16 of whom were teenagers, and injuring more than 100. If you don't know about this massacre, or feel moved to find out more, read on: https://t.co/NXsXfdwtli

Bella Hadid posted this (ironically on Instagram) implying that Israel controls Facebook content.

Let’s review some of the content Ayelet Shaked is referencing here the content Bella is so intent on defending

Jews likely will never win the social media war.

We are outnumbered: more of the world is antisemitic than our numbers will ever be.

But we owe it to our ancestors to never stop trying.

Shocking phone call of IDF calling to warn a building owner where children are present. A heartbreaking response.

Watch:

@AOC I'm an Israeli-Arab and a Muslim and I'm a proud Israeli. We are fighting Hamas terrorists who hijacked our religion while you tweet about something you know nothing about. Stfu!!!

[Hen Mazzig @HenMazzig]

I know I talk a lot about antisemitism, but I really adore being Jewish. It’s my favorite thing about myself.

I can’t end all hatred. But if I can get a few more people to love being Jewish -- well that’s a start...

Israel was not created with the hopes of meeting the expectations of editors at the @guardian.

So what is really happening in #SheikhJarrah?

#BREAKING: Appellate Court Re-Opens Door for “Product of Israel” Labels on Targeted Wines

Today’s decision is a major setback for the anti-Israel movement in Canada.

At a certain point, the media’s silence on hate crimes against Jews becomes approval.

[SSI Movement @SSI_Movement]

Anti-Zionism IS Antisemitism.

[David Collier @mishtal]

It isn't about a few sickos celebrating the awful tragedy in Israel. IT IS THE SCALE OF IT.

Al Jazeera posted 6 hours ago. There have been 30,000 responses.

10,000+ (33%) either laughing at or loving the fact innocent Jews have died.

The most liked comments -the most vicious.

[Michael Dickson @michaeldickson]

Shops close.
Cafés are shut.
There are ceremonies in every town.
People visit gravesites.
Tell stories of those lost.
And everyone stops.
In silence.
Wherever you are.
That’s how Israelis remember those who fell to protect them and those murdered by terrorists.

Jews were slaves in Egypt.

Jews were slaves in concentration camps.

But we will never be slaves again.

We fixed it for @nytimesworld

The Palestinian Authority’s decision to invest $150 million to payments to terrorists and their families instead of purchasing more vaccines and testing kits is a manifestation of the conflict’s core obstacle:

For the PA, the priority remains taking lives away, not saving them.
