Debates about foreign policy, legality, constitutionality, and politics aside, one thing is clear: Maduro is a bad guy and deserves no sympathy for being deposed and arrested. We are obliged to provide a lawful and fair trial. But the idea this was “unfair” to Maduro himself is

Iranians are rising up against their oppressors. The ayatollah's dictatorial, theocratic regime must end. The Iranian people have the power to do this. Every time we see protests, the regime grows weaker. This could be the one that breaks it. I stand with the people of Iran.

Strange that nobody is marching to show solidarity with the Iranians who are presently attempting to topple a tyrannical regime. I thought you all cared about freeing the Middle East?

Shame on every single person who question her. Shame on every single woman who does not stand with her. Shame on every Palestinian supporter who try to find excuse for that. Shame on you. Shame on you.
Hostage Romi Gonen has today spoken for the first time about how she was raped and sexually assaulted by a Hamas nurse. The first time she was attacked was when she had been kept in captivity for just four days. “I went into the shower — and things happened. I went in to

White leftists going full nazi, using a slur invented by David Duke and relying on medieval and Nazi tropes about Jews, then doing complete colonial erasure of Jewish ties in Judea and Samaria, only called the West Bank under Jordanian occupation, and ignoring the Oslo Accords

Quote: "That Israel is perpetrating a 'genocide' in Gaza is a preposterous lie, easily disprovable to anyone not determined to believe it, but a shocking number of academics, intellectuals, Hollywood actors and Democratic politicians accept the claim.."

Most Jews barely even read the Talmud — let alone treat it like it’s from God. The ONLY text Orthodox Jews (and religious Jews in general) believe was literally written by God’s finger is the Torah (the Five Books of Moses / Old Testament). The Talmud? It’s centuries of

Many activists and academics have been trying to separate Judaism from Zionism. Let's take a moment to understand why they want to do this, and why it's an intellectually dishonest position to take. A long 🧵... /1

This video was filmed outside of Ottawa's Jewish Community Centre, which includes a facility to care for seniors with dementia — some of whom are Holocaust survivors. Where do people think this sort of behaviour leads? I'll tell you — to our own Bondi. Wake up.

I hope @RobynUrback’s moral clarity becomes contagious, especially among those who’ve chosen silence, or worse, the moral fog of permission and encouragement of 👇
There have been many defining moments for Canada since 2023. I think the most significant was just a couple of weeks ago, when a pro-Palestinian demonstration marched through a residential Jewish neighbourhood, accusing residents of supporting baby killers https://t.co/dfznIWarUw

There is such a a massive gulf between Western discourse about the war in Gaza, and reality. A lot of people in the West wrongly think that Israel was fighting a one sided war against civilians. They totally ignore the choices of Hamas in starting and continuing the war.

⛑️Israel facilitated the creation of another field hospital in Gaza with 150 beds and 200 medical and support staff. This is the 15th field hospital established in Gaza since Hamas started the war on October 7, 2023. Via @cogatonline

Antizionism is not pro-Palestinian. It’s not even a position on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict at all. It cannot be overestated how specific of an ideology it is. Antizionism today is every bit as wacky, elaborate, and twisted as classical antisemitism was.

The debate about whether “antizionism is antisemitism” is boring and irrelevant. It’s like arguing whether homophobia and biphobia are “the same.” They’re both hateful prejudices that target the same people and share motives as hatreds and histories as ideas. Let’s move on.

The wildest part of this isn’t that young girls happily show their faces whilst they emulate the Palestinian terrorist showing his bloody hands after the Ramallah lynchings. It’s that one of them has a “pride progress” lanyard whilst glorifying the murder of Jews ahead of a
