I am going to explain in a 10 point thread why antizionism *is* antisemitism, and why we must begin - in law and every other area - to treat it as such. Because this argument is really not complicated. 🧵 1/6

Zohran Mamdani has a choice after his electoral victory: he can actually and truthfully be a mayor for all and realize that realpolitik and the world doesn’t run on talking points and useless campaign slogans; or he can capitulate to the ideological and intransigent flank of his

When Zohran Mamdani dares to say that “when the boot of the NYPD is on your neck, it’s been laced by the IDF,” there is no room for debate, no refuge in the tired alibi of “anti-Zionism.” It is unvarnished, unashamed antisemitism. May the voters of New York remember it tomorrow.

In other words, it's about the meanness of it all, not about some technical legal issue due to shutdown.

This deserves a serious answer, because I think Ihab is totally honest here. A serious answer isn't short, but hopefully it's interesting. If you don't read it, you'll save yourself another interminable round of Israeli-Palestinian wrangling. Hopefully Ihab will read it. This

Trump’s own lawyers said emergency funding must be used for nutrition assistance during a shutdown. @USDA just deleted that memo & is now planning to illegally cancel SNAP. Republicans are using hungry families as political leverage. It’s disgusting.

The results of a new Palestinian public opinion survey have just been released by the PCPSR. Here are some of the key takeaways: 🔸️Overall, 53% of Palestinians say the decision by Hamas to launch the October 7 attack was correct. 🔸️Overall satisfaction with Hamas’s

Four cousins from the Alkrenawi family, Bedouins from Rahat, saved some forty participants of the Nova festival on Oct 7. Today they were awarded the Mount Zion Award at Jerusalem’s Dormition Abbey for their courage and their humanity.

One of the major terrible outcomes of the past two years of war in Gaza after October 7 is that Islamists, pro-terror activists & supposed "pro-Palestine" voices are out in the open in the US and Western world, telling everyone how much they support Hamas and violent extremism,

When did making kids go hungry become a Christian value?

This…is…INSANE.

Trump plan to fund military pay by "gifts" from unnamed plutocrats would horrify and terrify every American Founder. Plutarch quotes the triumvir Marcus Crassus: "No one is rich who cannot pay for his own army." The Founders wrote the Constitution so it would never happen here.

“How dare you pick a relevant Reagan quote for an ad?” said the most mendacious sluice of endless lies, frauds, deceptions, cons, scams, grifts, and self-fellating retcons to ever besmirch the Oval Office.

Even if the East Wing were a wreck (which it wasn't) ... even if the proposed Trump ballroom were beautiful (which it isn't) ... the demolition would still be a scandal because it's financed by bribes.

Alhamdulillah: all living Israeli hostages are no longer in Hamas's captivity in Gaza - a critical step toward healing and progress for both Israelis and Palestinians. Sending loving kindness to their families and loved ones ❤️

Sources say Indonesia, the world’s largest Muslim nation, is on the path to joining the Abraham Accords tomorrow. Its leader will arrive in Israel to deliver a historic speech. A nation with more Muslims than all Arab countries combined is now choosing peace over prejudice.

It is time to hold institutions accountable. The belief that organizations like the UN, the World Food Programme, or Amnesty International are neutral by default—and therefore above criticism—no longer holds. These institutions carry moral authority only as long as they earn it.

Qatar is everything that conspiracy theories attach to Jews: 31 FARA registrants in the US, nearly $250M on lobbying firms in the last decade, over $6 BILLION buying influence at US universities. via @EFischberger

Fascism occurs twice: first as the tragedy of a Second World War started by men who fought the First and knowingly chose slaughter, then as the farce of an ignorant draft dodger trying to provoke a war against his own people.
