🧵Over the last few weeks I’ve watched some of my worst predictions come true about the destructive effects of conspiracist antizionism and the fear & loathing of Israel that have taken over portions of the left in recent years. It didn’t start in recent years of course - it’s

Jews are speaking back. Across dispersed but interconnected spaces—online writing, local study groups, independent publications, and public debate—a new Jewish discourse is taking shape. Figures like @HenMazzig , @MatthewNouriel, and @IzaTabaro are at the forefront, articulating

Antisemites have always sought to erase and exploit the memory of Jewish suffering. The “pro-Palestinian” movement appropriated October 7 for its globalize the intifada rallies in order to erase the association of that date with the genocidal slaughter Hamas perpetrated on that

The Guardian — which loudly talks about "genocide" — is openly calling on Hamas to reject the deal and continue the slaughter

This is a fairly obvious point, but it needs to be said: These Palestine activists are un-American. They don’t just hate Israel, they hate our country. No respectable politician should be seeking their votes.
BREAKING: A crowd of Islamists in NYC waving Hamas flags declare that they will presumably carry out attacks in the US. "We did not act enough! We will show up, stronger than we did the first October 7th!"

Heroes.
A photo I snapped on October 7, 2023 near Yad Mordechai north of Gaza; soldiers arriving and getting ready to go into the fight. Units were arriving piecemeal and being thrown into the fight. As I found out later from a reservist tank crew the next day; there were no tanks that

October 7 was a day of tremendous loss, but it was also a day of tremendous heroism. It’s really important that we, the Jewish people, remember that. Israeli media covers both sides of the story, and that’s one of the most palpable differences in the way October 7 is discussed in

Crucial addition to my post:
@IzaTabaro I agree of course with you. I just want to add that it bothers me that we the millenials are often not mentioned in those kind of posts , while our lives were changed forever too. We sent our husbands to duty reserve and had to protect young children from the horrors of that day.
