It’s now been 4 years since I gave my dad a kidney and we are still doing great. If you have a loved one in need, take the time to learn the facts about kidney donation. If you need a transplant, don’t be afraid to ask. I hope this article helps.

It is perfectly okay to have doubts about such a big decision.

President Trump has a short-attention span, but I hope he uses his unique influence to build a better future following the ceasefire agreement.

(1) Half a century of the USA asking nicely to resolve conflict in Israel/Palestine has failed. As we’ve just seen if USs acts as a superpower it can achieve results. World now needs same continued US and Arab Determination to build towards a lasting peace.
🚨Scoop: A dramatic meeting last Wednesday between President Trump's envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner and Hamas leaders headed by Khalil al-Hayya helped seal the Gaza peace deal. My story on @axios

Bibi never wanted Hamas to say “yes” — and he did everything he could to tank its chances, from changes to the text to incendiary comments in Hebrew. Hamas also didn’t exactly say “yes.” Nevertheless, Trump’s craven desire for a Nobel may, strangely, get us to the right place.
🚨An Israeli official said Netanyahu was surprised by President Trump’s response 🚨In consultations Netanyahu held on Friday - after Hamas’ response and before Trump’s announcement - he stressed that he views Hamas’ response as a rejection of Trump’s plan, the Israeli official

Sure would make sense to have Palestinian leadership in these meetings, but Trump won’t even let them in the United States.
Scoop: President Trump is planning to meet a select group of Arab and Muslim leaders on Tuesday on the sidelines of the U.N. General Assembly meeting in New York to discuss ways to end the war in Gaza. My story on @axios

The most clueless DC ever: One day they encourage annexation, deprive PA of resources & UN diplomatic venue. The next, they warn of consequences of its collapse. One day they greenlight resumed fighting. The next, they're pissed with humanitarian consequences & dead reporters.

A perfect expression of decades of US policy toward the Palestinians: we’ll punish you for violence, but we’ll also punish you for non-violence.
Today the Trump Administration is announcing it will deny and revoke visas from members of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) and the Palestinian Authority (PA) ahead of the upcoming UN General Assembly per U.S. law. Before we take them seriously as partners in

אמירתו של נתניהו לפיה טבח ה-7 באוקטובר לא היה קורה אם טראמפ היה נשיא היא לא פחות ממטורפת. ראשית, אתה היית ראש הממשלה וזו אחריותך. שנית, החלטת לחסל סופית את יחסינו עם המפלגה הדמוקרטית ויהדות ארה״ב? אתה לא מבין שזה נשמע כאילו אתה מאשים את הנשיא ביידן באסון שאתה אחראי לו?

I'm getting a lot of questions about this (false) claim, so let's do a wonky deep dive on how willfully wrong @Israel is on this. Right off the top: this is the EXACT SAME THRESHOLD that was used in the Sudan famine declaration last year. Not any lowering of the bar for Gaza.
In other countries, the IPC declares famine at 30% malnutrition. In Gaza only, the UN-backed IPC lowered the bar to 15% and it is based on unreliable data. They didn’t find famine - so they forged one.

As I noted in my thread last, this whole line of argument is based on a basic misreading of the actual IPC guidance. This has been explained to the Israeli government. They are choosing to lie about it.
