Two little girls. No feet. No family. Just tears where laughter should be. 💔🇵🇸 They lost their feet to Israeli airstrikes, the same strikes that martyred their parents. 💔

OMG! Jewish-American doctor recounts how Israeli soldiers took two Palestinian children, tied their hands behind their backs, and buried them alive. "Their cries being muffled by the dirt as it was poured upon them while they were being buried alive." These were children!

“When I called you primitive camel jockeys, I didn’t consider that it would put you in the awkward position of having to defend your association with me. Mind you yes I believe that’s exactly what you are because I’m a racist European. But this is still on me.”
Israeli Finance Minister Smotrich: My statement about Saudi Arabia was certainly not successful, and I regret the offense it caused.

This isn’t Gaza today, it’s Yafa in 1948. No Hamas, no October 7. Just the same story repeating itself: erase, then occupy.
هذه ليست رفح ولا جباليا ولا عيتا الشعب في جنوب لبنان هذا حي المنشية في يافا في حرب 1948 يومها لم تكن هنالك حماس ولا السابع من أكتوبر، بل حتى الجيوش العربية لم تكن قد دخلت فلسطين بعد! دمروا يافا وقتلوا وهجروا أهلها تحت إشراف الاحتلال البريطاني، بدأ العدوان على المدينة بتفجير

1. Your whataboutism is so desperate. 2. You support genocide in Gaza, so don't pretend you care about the killing of innocents.
You know what is worse than “Islamophobia”? The nearly 3,000 innocent people who died on 9/11 at the hands of Islamic terrorists or the 48,000 Islamic terror attacks in nearly 70 countries since 9/11 alone. People are waking up.

The 27 members pressing the Trump admin to free an American teen from Israeli detention cite a similar case as warning: 17-year-old Palestinian Walid Ahmad, like Mohammed, was detained for months without charges, facing abuse & poor conditions. In March, he collapsed and died.
NEW — 27 members of Congress press Marco Rubio & Mike Huckabee to free Palestinian-American teen Mohammed Ibrahim from Israeli detention. They also note Israeli settlers killed his cousin, Sayfollah, a 20-year-old US citizen, in July—and Israeli authorities have arrested no one.

Imagine the news cycle if this happened to an Israeli hostage. Yet, the terrorist organization known as the Israeli government can kill, rape & torture, and our media class will remain indifferent to these sadistic crimes.

So, @politico just revealed that a Trump nominee for a senior position in government described himself as having a “Nazi streak.” Not a word from Greenblatt or ADL about that but here’s a long screed about a Muslim mayoral candidate standing next to someone in a photo. Sheesh.
Elected officials and candidates should know that who they associate with sends a signal to their constituents. And at a time of skyrocketing antisemitism, this matters more than ever to the Jewish community. Imam Siraj Wahhaj has a history of supporting controversial figures
