Ladies, bots and gentlemen,
I am honored to accept this award. My heartfelt thanks to all who voted for me!
And let’s hear it for my worthy competitors! [applause] Especially

I take this award as a mandate: to do even better (worse) in 2024!

Their letter did not say that, at all. It simply did not say that Jews “can’t use our own collective memory of the Holocaust to help us process the atrocities”.
The letter was about misuse of Holocaust references in other ways.

VERY Unpopular Opinion
The massacre of October 7 was more like a Comanche raid than like the Holocaust or a pogrom, despite the relevance of the latter comparison to the Jewish people.
The Comanches, like the Gazans, were more savage and sadistic than the Nazis and Europeans.

This luxury mall is in the refugee camp where the four hostages were held, in the open air prison and concentration camp known as Gaza.
One thing that struck me: unlike in Israel, in Gaza there’s no security check at the entrance to shopping malls. Well, of course not.
Guess where Noa Argamani was being held? At the home of "journalist" Abdallah al-Jamal right behind the opulent al-Danaf Hyper Mall in Nusseirat. Remember the car park at the back? One of the houses around there!

Yeah I’m one of those people he’s talking about. Israel can manage some perceptions in the short term, but long-term, the West and the Muslim world care about what Israel is, not what Israel does.
It’s mostly not antisemitism. It’s mostly Islamist revanchism and Western
A lot of Israelis seem to have convinced themselves that the world is so irrationally set against them that their own conduct becomes irrelevant to how they are seen in the world, which gets them stuck in a cycle of overreach, backlash, and paranoia.

The Harvard plagiarism scandal shows that Chris Rufo is even more of a genius than we all thought. I was skeptical at first just like Lomez was (screenshot).

Did the Nazis do anything to their victims that was as horrific as what was done on October 7? That’s an honest question, I don’t know holocaust history.
October 7 seems more savage and sadistic than the Nazis, more like ISIS or the Comanches.

I’m sure they have, but I also stand by my original opinion.
When Arab students chant, in Arabic, “From the water to the water, Palestine will be Arab”, they’re not expressing a Western liberal hope for equal coexistence. Let alone chants of, “We don’t want no two-state….”

There's also supporting terrorist attacks. That's something the vast majority of Palestinian adults do, whether you call it innocence or culpability. It's irrelevant legally, but it's relevant morally.

This person seems reasonable but still, I’ve been seeing this argument for decades: “Israel’s response will just further radicalize Palestinians.”
Like, more radical than they are now? More than what we saw last Saturday? What are they going to do, cut the baby’s head off twice?
I guess Israel troops could theoretically kill everyone in Gaza/West Bank, but they won’t. Those who survive will be yet more radicalized& live in a more shattered and traumatized version of the status quo — an existence without basic human rights. Unhappy pause, more violence.

I probably disagree with you on the extent of the moral duty of commanders to avoid harming civilians. But you cited a 2:1 estimate of civilian to militant fatalities, and I think that's pretty low for urban warfare? (Not that such a crude comparison is justified, but even so.)

Why not put the buffer zone on the Israeli side of the current boundary?
The cost is permanently relocating some small Israeli communities. The benefit is that everyone would agree it’s legal, and also maybe civilians shouldn’t be living within 1–2km of an enemy country anyway.
