Can some women with DCIS safely avoid a second surgery? New findings from NRG/NSABP B-35 suggests that many postmenopausal women w/hormone receptor-positive DCIS may not require re-excision based solely on close lumpectomy margins when treated w/WBI & endocrine therapy. @wapnir

Mr. President, the speech you delivered yesterday will go down in history as an example of saving democracy. For us Israelis, it was also a reminder of who is destroying democracy in our beloved country. @KamalaHarris @VP @SecondGentleman @JoeBiden @POTUS

Itay and Maya Regev, who were kidnapped by Hamas and are now recovering in Israel, endured horrific levels of torture and abuse.

Itay who was shot in the hip said Hamas operated him while he was in full conscious as form of abuse. His sister Mia who was shot in her leg, had her feet operated on and re-connected upside down by the terror group.

In the Israeli hospitals the medical team has revered the damaged Hamas sadistic terrorists caused them.

Noa Argamani was kidnapped on a motorcycle, flanked by 2 #hamasterrorists, while she was screaming, begging for her life and looking helpless at her boyfriend, Avinatan Or, who has the hands cuffed, also taken hostage. That chilling video went viral. She is 26y old, born in Israel, from a Chinese mother and an Israeli father, studying software engineering at the same Univ as her boyfriend. Her mother has brain cancer, in terminal stage and she made a world crying when she appeared on a video saying that all she wants is for her only daughter to come back home, so she can see her one more time before she dies….
Noa and her boyfriend are captive since 60 days…

At least 10 of the released hostages testified that they were abused sexually, confirmed by medical investigations. Both women and men. Captivity in the hands of those criminals and rapists is HELL !
We have to tell their story, WE HAVE TO BRING THEM BACK.
With all our voices…

"I saw the terrorists bending her over, raping her, and passing her on to the next. She was alive when they raped her. She was on her feet and bleeding from her back.
He pulled her hair. He shot her in the head while raping her, didn't even lift his pants. They cut off her breast and played with it."

^ A first-hand account of rape and mutilation perpetrated by Hamas on October 7th, provided to police by a female witness and subsequently reported in @thetimes and @BBCNews

Despite over 60,000 video clips and more than 1,000 witness statements, Hamas’ crimes are still ignored, downplayed, and downright denied by failed organisations like the UN, compromised politicians like Jeremy Corbyn, and biased journalists like Owen Jones. Shame on them.

I will continue to use this platform to call out the brutal attacks and gang rapes of Hamas. Thank you to everyone who stands up to these monsters.

You probably heard the news regarding Shani Louk.
I do - however - want to explain to you what happened.
This is Shani, by the way, 23 years old. A German-Israeli. She went to Nova music festival for a party.
She’s the one who was filmed on Saturday laying face down on a pickup truck. Naked. Her leg terribly broken and dislocated.
The crowd was seen spitting on her, poking her body. She was proudly paraded through Gaza.
In recent days, the IDF conducted missions in the north part of Gaza and the area surrounding the border.
Parts of Shani’s skull were found. She was partly beheaded.
After lab and DNA tests a panel of experts reached a conclusion that she was murdered and a formal message was delivered to her family.
She could have been your sister, your daughter, she could have been you.
Shani’s body is still being held by Hamas in Gaza along with 228 other hostages. The Red Cross is still not allowed to see them, no information regarding their condition was shared.
