Imagine feeling the deck is stacked against you when you're an immigrant who graduates from Berkeley and Harvard Law and gets a job at the New York Times by the time you're 30. It's grotesque.

What do you think they’re looking for, you ghoul? They’re looking for dead Jews kidnapped by the monsters you’re defending. May someone forgive your evil, because I won’t.

🚨Breaking: Al-Shifa Hospital's Head of Burns Dept. reports to Al Jazeera that occupying forces have exhumed graves in the hospital yard, stealing several bodies and loading them onto trucks. Disgusting, inhuman.

Sen. Sanders’ family was killed in the Holocaust. He dedicates his every moment to realizing tikkun olam. His commitment to protecting innocents in Gaza stems FROM his Jewish values. He and many other Jewish leaders deserve better than to be treated this way. This is shameful.
