PLEASE HELP MAKE THIS YOUNG MAN FAMOUS
Yotam Budnik is a 12th-grade student from Rehovot 🇮🇱 just won a gold medal at the International Olympiad in Informatics in Uzbekistan but was not allowed to compete under the Israeli flag.
When Yotam was awarded his medal 🏅 stepped onto the podium, pulled an Israeli flag out of his pocket and wore it in defiance of the Anti-Semitic discrimination.
While the medal 🏅 was revoked from him for his courage, he has no regrets
"The law that prevents me from waving the flag is based only on politics, and I thought there was no place for that in a scientific competition", he said.
The organizers demanded that he return his medal.
Yotam said no.
Organizers took away his certificate and removed his ranking from the website.
Please help make sure the world knows the name Yotam Budnik and that he is not only a world class computer science genius, but also a man of courage and pride of the Jewish people 💙
In Buddhism we understand that every action comes with a consequence. Due to my decision to stand up for my Jewish friends I am losing a few people from my life. Today I parted company with Tony Pontius who has run my record label BGP for a number of years. I wanted to release 'We Will Dance Again' but he was unequivocal and said 'I want nothing to do with this song' and I responded 'ok, we are done'.
When someone is gutless it really does not hurt to say goodbye. My faith in humanity will not diminish and the truth will always win.
I will release it!
@sweeenie They do not respect western values, nor civil liberties. They take advantage of our freedom to promote their radical Muslim agenda, and their desire to control the world. Our brave police officers are interfering with their agenda. Infuriating
@EDSecMcMahon@Amb_AlThani Off all the countries in the world I cannot think of less deserving country. How do we allow a terror sponsoring country, to influence our kids, brainwashing them to glorify Islam, hate our country and Israel
@AffordAnything Not to worry, Mamdani has a plan, he will seize all the units to Qatar. Just like London did, and now they are the largest property owner in London. The cancer is slowly taking over our society
@NewYorker You got to be kidding me, Israel gave them work, they slaughtered them, and now they expect work back? Israel is not responsible for Palestinians, they have their own government that is flushed with world money, let them take care of their people, or Egypt on the other side
@ShadowofEzra He bears responsibility for this. For years, he focused heavily on calling out hatred from the right, even as the largest growing segment of antisemitism and extremism was actually coming from the left. The ADL fell asleep on his watch
Israel has boots on the ground fighting Hezbollah terrorists who murdered Americans. And they’re losing soldiers. Not a damn word of appreciation let alone acknowledgment. No role in deterring what’s in any deal. The countries that fund terrorism are actually making decisions at our behest about the future of the Israelis and Lebanese. Just more insanity.
It’s horrifying to see a digital version of 1930s Germany play out on X.
JD Vance’s advance man @alexbruesewitz is having his bot army label Jewish accounts and target them for banning.
What’s next? Yellow badges?
Result of talks in Switzerland so far
The US has;
Launched the $300 billion reconstruction plan
Allowed oil & petrochemical exports.
Lifted the naval blockade
Released frozen Iranian assets
The Iranian regime has done;
Absolutely nothing.
NICE SURRENDER JOB JD VANCE
TODAY WOULD HAVE BEEN HIS 5TH BIRTHDAY; GAZA BURNED HIM ALIVE 💔
"Today would have been the 5th birthday of Omer Freddy Siman Tov, who was murdered in Nir Oz on October 7 together with his parents, Yehonatan (Johnny) and Tamar, his sisters Arbel and Shachar, and his grandmother Carol.
His family wrote to him:
"Omeriko, our sweet little Omi.
The youngest brother of Arbel and Shachar, a magical child, pure gold, a little prince with a huge smile and an even bigger heart, who loved people and hugs.
You always knew how to explain exactly what you needed, even without words.
A 2.5 year-old boy with an old soul and eyes that were penetrating, curious, and full of love.
You were so smart, flexible in your thinking, and sensitive. You loved to laugh and to receive hugs and kisses. You adored your parents, your sisters, and Zuko the dog.
You loved trips, pastrami, and rice with meatballs. You loved playing soccer with your red ball and riding your little motorcycle around the kibbutz. You were mischievous and determined, a child of nature who loved tractors, animals, and people, a perfect combination of Mom and Dad.
Our Omeriko, you filled our lives with love, mischief, happiness, and laughter—for far too short a time. We miss you and love you, every moment of every day."
May Omer’s memory be a blessing."
