@RabbiGoldberg The time between the end of the chuppa and the first dance has become far too long, especially on a weeknight. Thank you for pointing this out.

Absurd Claims of Dog Rape and Genocide. I see a correlation between those who believe absurd claims like dogs were trained to rape Palestinians and those who believe and insist Israel committed genocide in Gaza.

Both claims collapse under scrutiny and mountains of contrary evidence. One ignores basic physiology and science, including the reality that dogs cannot rape humans in the way being alleged. The other disregards the legal definition of genocide, which requires intent to destroy a people, alongside repeated public statements by Israeli political and military leaders after October 7 that the war was against Hamas, not the people of Gaza. It also requires evidence of actions taken to fulfill that intent, yet accusers dismiss Israel’s documented actions to mitigate civilian harm, facilitate aid, move civilians from combat zones, and even vaccinate Gaza’s population during active war under conditions no military has ever faced. It further ignores that even critics of Israel’s campaign have acknowledged civilian-to-combatant casualty ratios that are historically low for dense urban warfare against an entrenched enemy purposely embedded among civilians.

What connects these beliefs is not evidence, but a double standard in how definitions, laws, reason, science, and even common sense are applied. Facts that would invalidate the accusation are dismissed because the conclusion comes first: Israelis are uniquely evil. And that demonization rarely stops with Israelis alone. It often extends to Jews broadly, regardless of any personal connection to the conflict. I see this less as a dispute over evidence and more as an effort to delegitimize Israel’s existence through accusations that do not withstand logical, factual, or legal scrutiny.

[U.S. Senator John Fetterman @SenFettermanPA]

Confirmed: rapists, cowards and vile deviants.

Volumes of incontrovertible evidence of the depravity of Hamas.

NYT preemptively dropped a grotesque op-ed with sources linked to Hamas for a beachhead of “bothsiderism” Hamas defenders.

I just took the floor at the United Nations to deliver a speech that never in my life I could have imagined necessary:

Madam Chair,

History teaches that the health of a society may be assessed by a simple test: Is it safe for Jews?

Sadly, today we need to pose this question to the West’s proudest democracies.

Australia: Synagogues firebombed in Melbourne.
“Gas the Jews” shouted in your streets.
A terrorist massacre of Jews at Bondi.
You rejected visas for Israeli lawmakers, while rewarding Hamas by recognizing a non-existent state.
Australia, you have more than 100,000 Jews.
How many now think of leaving?

Britain: Mass marches chanting for intifada and destruction of the Jewish state.
Jewish ambulances torched in Golders Green.
You impose an arms embargo on Israel—yet refuse to proscribe the IRGC.
Britain, you have 300,000 Jews.
How many now think of leaving?

Canada: Synagogues riddled with bullets.
Jewish schools under siege.
Your minister promotes an Internet hoax that Israel bombed a hospital.
Canada, you have 400,000 Jews.
How many now think of leaving?

France: Rabbis attacked in Paris. A Holocaust memorial defaced with graffitti.
State-sponsored media whitewash the UN’s Hamas apologist.
France, you have half a million Jews.
How many now think of leaving?

History teaches: Nations that welcomed Jews grew stronger; those that drove them out diminished themselves.

Prime Ministers Albanese, Starmer, Carney, President Macron: You failed to confront the hate. Worse, by applying a constant double standard to the Jewish state, you sent signals to the mob.

A society may be judged by a simple test.
We ask Leaders of the West: Are your countries safe for Jews?

Thank God Almighty and American voters that this woman is not President right now.

In a parallel universe, Khamenei is presiding over a military parade unveiling Iran’s nuclear warheads right now.

“We are all Jews here.”

81 years later, President Donald J. Trump will award the Medal of Honor - the highest military decoration in the United States - to WWII hero Roderick Edmonds, who saved Jewish soldiers from the Nazis.

On December 17, 1944, during the Battle of the Bulge, Master Sgt. Roderick Edmonds was captured by German forces and imprisoned at Stalag IX-A.

Because of his rank, he was placed in charge of more than 1,000 American POWs - about 200 of them Jewish.

On January 27, 1945, the Germans ordered all Jewish prisoners to report the next morning. Edmonds understood what that likely meant.

He told his men: “We will all fall in.”

The next morning, every soldier - Jews and non-Jews - stood together.

The German commander said it was impossible they were all Jewish.

Edmonds replied: “We are all Jews here.”

The commander drew his pistol, pressed it to Edmonds’ head, and threatened to shoot.

Calmly, Edmonds gave his name, rank, and serial number, and warned him:

“If you shoot me, you’ll have to shoot all of us. And when we win this war, you will be tried as a war criminal.”

The German lowered his weapon.

In 2015, Yad Vashem recognized Edmonds as Righteous Among the Nations.

This week, The White House announced he will receive the Medal of Honor.

This is the real America.

An explanation of the tragedy of Zionism amidst the screams of masked protesters. Here is the second and final clip from @havivrettiggur Haverford lecture on February 1.

[Eyal Yakoby @EYakoby]

Well that ends the debate on deaths in Gaza.

Hamas itself is admitting that 80% of casualties were combatants.

There was never a genocide.

You have been lied to and manipulated.

[Ouriel @OurielOhayon]

🔺 🚨 hey @nytimes, why did you allow a Hamas colonel to publish not one, but 2 columns in your "paper"?

one of which only 2 weeks after oct 7?

[Hillel Neuer @HillelNeuer]

UN post on the murder of six million Jews forgot to mention Jews.

[Eyal Yakoby @EYakoby]

Hamas didn’t hand it over, Israel sent in a team to extract it.

How can the New York Times get it wrong so many times?

[Iris @streetwize]

Prime Minister Netanyahu removes the hostage pin, says a blessing of thanks and adds, "We completed this mission, as I promised, and we will also complete the other missions we set."

[Hen Mazzig @HenMazzig]

“We are looking forward to tomorrow morning for the first time in 843 days, not having to put masking tape over our hearts.”

BREAKING 🚨

Three Hamas terrorists who infiltrated during the October 7 massacre were just captured inside Israel — after hiding out for over two years.

They were found near Rahat, deep in the Negev, running a full-scale weapons factory.

Here’s what police seized:
• 34 pistols
• 12 M16 rifles
• A Kalashnikov
• A Carlo
• An RPG missile
• Grenades
• Over 50,000 rounds of ammo

Night raid. Arrested in their beds.

So while the world lectures Israel on “restraint”…

A Hamas terror cell that entered on October 7 was operating inside Israel for over 26 months. Preparing for the next massacre.
