By so blatantly favoring one weapon over the other, we ended up fighting a lethal virus with one hand tied behind our back.
Taxpayers deserve to know why only 1% of the $1.9 trillion in last March’s COVID relief cash went for treatments.
@JewishJournal
The Palestinians who celebrated the murderous act by dancing in the streets and handing out candies were not thinking about the civilized world. They were rejoicing at the death of Jews.
@DrMonicaOsborne
@RepRashida
They always forget one pesky and horribly inconvenient detail: The "catastrophe" of the Jewish state gave Arabs a country where they have more rights, freedoms and opportunities than in any Arab state.
@benshapiro
Proselytizing is illegal in Israel, and they deliberately chose a religious neighborhood on Shabbat, camera in tow, knowing very well they'd get the film they want.
Hard to imagine a worse example of journalistic malpractice than the media (AP, NYTimes, CNN, Reuters, etc) who rushed to judgement by buying the Hamas lie that Israel bombed a Gaza hospital and murdered 500. Of course, now that damage is done, they will gently walk it back.
@HenMazzig
Mainstream media is afraid to cover all of this because the hate and violence is coming from their side, and they don't want to help the other team. Imagine if all of these ugly incidents were from white supremacists-- it'd be all over the news.
The widespread revulsion in the Jewish world about the Jewish rampage in Huwara is something to emulate. If Palestinian leaders had a fraction of this self-criticism, we'd have peace by now.
@Byoussef
No, habibi, you're just pretending to be "happy" about being exposed because you loathe showing weakness. Complaining about being taken out of context is simply you getting a taste of your own medicine.
@IzaTabaro
His intellect, although highly developed in some areas, is no match for his desire to confirm his predisposed narratives, which blinds him to the evil facing him. So all he can do is talk "strategy."
@KassyDillon
My only consolation is knowing that 10, 20, 30 years from now they will still be whining away while the Jews will be thriving and creating and winning.
@ScottAdamsSays
I don't know if it's the first rule, but it's surely in the top ten: Don't call blacks a "hate group" and then try to explain it away by calling it "hyperbole."
Four Israelis killed in stabbing attack in Beersheba It's not nothing that this murderous ISIS terrorist is an Israeli will all the rights and privileges of Israeli citizenship.
My personal message to Jew haters: You don't scare us. You can't hurt us. We love life. Most of the world loves us and admires us. That's because we're winners and you're losers. For those few times we think about you, we feel pity, not fear. Oh, and Happy Hannukah!
Bari Weiss could have said to Bill Maher: “We can appreciate the president’s support for Israel AND ALSO speak out against his incendiary and divisive rhetoric. One doesn’t preclude the other.”

Not even a tiny recognition from Biden that Israel did something no country in that region has done in 100 years-- took responsibility and apologized.

If you're going through a divorce, if you had a bad argument with your mother, if you're recovering from a business failure, if you have doubts about you career, etc, whatever the problem, the vaccine will rescue you.
@PeterBeinart
No-- they demand the end of double standards. Protecting other groups from microaggressions but suddenly bringing up free speech when Jews are the victims and Palestinians the offenders.
@GadSaad
Life is precious, on condition that you can find precious things to do. For victim junkies, there's nothing more precious than the dopamine hit of chronic victimhood that ensures that you're never responsible for anything.
My appearance on
@benshapiro
’s Sunday Special was just released! We’ve appeared three times together before but never one on one.
Please have a watch or listen and tell me what you think:
@faniaoz
We barely made any mistakes for 2,000 years. Even worse, we were the world's conscience and made the world supremely guilty when we lost 6 million. Having a state finally gives the world a chance to unload and relive its guilt-- and they're doing it with a vengeance.
@PeterBeinart
are you referring to the major crackdown that started a few years ago on "microaggressive" speech that made marginalized groups feel unsafe?
@havivrettiggur
Dear Shadi-- try harder. But you can start with this: Every Israeli soldier in Gaza would much rather be hanging out at a cafe with friends and family. I wish I could say that about your brethren on Oct. 7.
@PeterBeinart
The Beinart technique-- friendly throat-clearing followed by a BUT. What comes after that but is always his main point. In this case, that the pro-Hamas, anti-Israel riots will start a healthy debate. Or perhaps just the opposite.
@NoahPollak
From TOI: "Channel 12 reports, without citing any sources, that Israel has begun intercepting Iranian drones over Syria and Jordan. The ability to do so is thanks to an aerial umbrella set up by the US in cooperation with regional allies." I pray that we crush them.
@renegade_Kathy
Picking up where our ancestors left off and rekindling the flame and renewing the story for each generation is the eternal Jewish act. Welcome home.
@AmbDennisRoss
I wonder if Bibi has an interest to extend the war in Gaza for as long as possible and keep a weakened version of Hamas in charge to accomplish two goals--extend his time on the job and guarantee no Palestinian state.
@OnlinePalEng
As you grieve for your own, don't forget the mother and the two daughters they murdered in cold blood. There's plenty of grieving there, too.
@coldxman
"many others heard it as a dangerous undermining of the fight for progress in race relations." This is what Anderson should be most concerned about-- an organization based around ideas and curiosity decides that a perfectly well reasoned idea is "dangerous." THAT is dangerous.
@DovWaxman
"I know that many people in the pro-Palestinian movement don’t support Hamas and don’t praise the October 7 massacre"-- why don't you find them and ask them to make some noise?
@MariamBarghouti
What really matters is this: Palestinians keep losing and Israel keeps winning. What has whining and complaining brought to the Palestinians? Just PR victories and more misery. What have 10,000 anti-Israel pieces in Mondoweiss and other outlets done for Palestinians? Nada. Zilch.
@EVKontorovich
It's also possible that it will be too little too late to appease the Israel-hating left. They've branded him for 6 months as an Zionist enabler; that kind of branding can be hard to undo, especially if the haters see right through the political ploy.
@havivrettiggur
Meanwhile, Ron should know that we didn't need professional photographers to get "evidence of atrocities." The iphones of the murderers, not to mention security cameras, gave us more than we needed.
@Eve_Barlow
I thought the same thing. This guy thought this through before libeling his own people in front of the world. Maybe he figures he'll now be invited to cooler parties.
@bjportraits
It's the verbal anesthesia technique. When you're caught, spew out a verbal salad of "justice" lingo and hope you'll put everyone to sleep.

@joboaler
"Racializing" is empowering because it's easy and immutable. No need to think or process anything-- just look at skin color. It's color-by-numbers indoctrination.
@OGAride
The silent crisis no one wants to talk about-- the biggest enemies of the Palestinian people are their corrupt leaders. In polite company, though, it's so much more popular when the white, western, successful Jews are the enemy.
@EinatWilf
@EllaTravelsLove
Maybe a key difference is that Hamas, as barbaric as they are, have a direct connection to the most popular and coddled victim movement in human history.
@_ZachFoster
Yes-- why do Palestinian terrorists who hide behind children and civilians treat Palestinian lives with such little value? And why do those Jews have to build so many bomb shelters? Why do they value their lives so much while the terrorists do the opposite?
@peterboghossian
Why would something as delicate as entering a bathroom be left open to interpretation that can so easily lead to abuse? This is performative goodness.
@CarolineGlick
@Commentary
America is even more broken that American Jewry. Success has been replaced by white privilege, meritocracy by discrimination, responsibility by the worship of victimhood. The Jewish mission now should be not just to pile on but to help fix it.
@Byoussef
@triggerpod
Actually, given that you couldn't name ONE thing Palestinians have done wrong that they can't blame on Israel, your pronouncements were both predictable and boring.
@IzaTabaro
"We must, however, include this caveat: When Jew haters misuse Holocaust memory to sustain their sinister narratives, that's OK, because, you know, the Jews."
@EliLake
1200 people get butchered and massacred over 10 hours of pure terror and these pathetic Jew haters rally around an "it wasn't THAT bad defense." Thank you for leaving no doubt about your true colors.
@kampeas
One complication is that antisemitism from the right tends to be more blunt and visible, while from the left it can be sneaky and insidious. (Bashing the Jewish state is one way the left camouflages its Jew-hatred.) If we treat them equally, we take politics out of the picture.
@sjabulhawa
That's the problem with your school of thought. While Israel keeps building and creating, you dream only about demolishing. Until your dreams turn to building and creating, you will continue to demolish only your future.
@havivrettiggur
Bibi's hoping no one will notice that his "total victory" overpromise means that he's already LOST THE WAR against Hamas, not to mention everything else-- hostages, Israeli refugees, threats from the north/Iran, world opinion, etc. All he's got left is empty bluster.
@PeterBeinart
Yeah, the days when a new state was born in the Middle East that gave Arabs more freedoms, rights and opportunities that anywhere else in the region. Yeah, some catastrophe.
@havivrettiggur
No one's going to outwait us. We waited 19 centuries to come home. We're the ultimate waiters, the mother of all waiters. Small-time waiters don't scare us.
@IzaTabaro
Because Jew haters understand this connection-- that bashing Israel is the best way to bash Jews-- the connection itself has become more true with time.
This Stanford student should be expelled for physically threatening anyone who supports Israel. Talk about microagression.

Stanford Student Threatens to 'Physically Fight Zionists' on Campus
@MariamBarghouti
So he honored his grandfather's memory not by building a school or a clinic but by getting himself killed. Well done, Khairi. Remember, as long as you blame the Jews for everything, you don't have to build anything.
@faniaoz
The most important thing in life is trust. When people don't trust a leader to put his country's interest above his own, it never ends well. We don't know whether Bibi's decisions are good or bad. We just know we can't trust them.
As a Sephardic Jew who was raised with the classic Sephardic principles of tolerance, respect and religious moderation, I lament the contemporary absence of these values in today’s Sephardic rabbinic leaders, especially in Israel.
@MarinaMedvin
As she accepts her $250,000 grant and gets to enjoy her American freedom of speech, she says, "I believe America has no right to exist." Gee, thanks for sharing.
