The whole genre of "wow look how expensive the food is at this restaurant" hits so different when you only eat at kosher restaurants. $17.50 for all that food?? Literally double that at a kosher version!!

Eight years ago today, we suffered the deadliest act of antisemitism in American history when a killer entered Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh while people prayed and murdered 11 of our neighbors.
It’s been 2,922 days since the attack, but the pain still lingers in our Commonwealth. Today we offer prayers of comfort to those touched by this violence.
Let today be a moment for action, remembrance, and resolve to combat antisemitism in all forms.
May the memories of Joyce Fienberg, Richard Gottfried, Rose Mallinger, Jerry Rabinowitz, Cecil Rosenthal, David Rosenthal, Bernice Simon, Sylvan Simon, Daniel Stein, Melvin Wax, and Irving Younger forever be a blessing.

The antisemitism at this point is so just blatant and just so naked that anyone still denying it is unambiguously also an antisemite.

NEW from me
NYC First Lady Rama Duwaji has provided art for an olive oil company that celebrates Palestinian violence and sells a bottle honoring a terrorist who shot down a British plane

Here's what happens when a strong, thoughtful reporter asks @AbdulElSayed a reasonable question.....

Three years ago today, Hamas terrorists crossed into Israel from Gaza and brutally murdered more than 1,200 innocent souls, committing unspeakable acts of sexual violence and taking over 250 innocents hostage — including American citizens.
As we mark the third anniversary of October 7th, Lori and I are thinking of all those who lost loved ones on that horrific day, and we are praying for healing, comfort, and peace.

You can have just a post marking the tragic October 7th massacre.
You could save your selective ahistorical biased opinions on the whole history of Israel and Palestine (seemingly justifying October 7th) until say tomorrow.
Your empathy could exceed your biases.

It’s too bad that popular governor Josh Shapiro is stuck in Pennsylvania rather than a critical swing area like New York City or we might get some media coverage of what Democrats can learn from his successes over the years.

Except memorably in the case of the Ahli Arab Hospital explosion.

You'll rarely find an insider account as vivid and revealing as this from @brett_mcgurk

I’m struggling with the concept of someone who goes big on the moral importance of recognising the death & devastation in Gaza, & then 2 weeks later sits down with the Foreign Minister of a regime which this year murdered tens of thousands of people over the course of 72 hours.

This an absolutely insane response from someone trying to represent Michigan in the Senate. Abdul is bought and paid for by the enemies of America.
Iran, China, and Russia are rooting for Abdul to win. He has their best interests at heart. Not Michigan’s.

UN Secretary-General António Guterres said: “I have never seen killing and destruction like Gaza in all my years as Secretary-General.”
According to even the most critical reports, Guterres, 70,000 people were killed in the war in Gaza, a large proportion of them Hamas terrorists.
During your years as Secretary-General: more than 600,000 people were massacred or starved to death in Ethiopia.
377,000 died in Yemen — that figure appears in reports issued by your own organization.
150,000 were killed in Sudan and 12 million were displaced.
Hundreds of thousands have been buried in Ukraine.
You didn’t see it? They died before your eyes. You simply looked the other way, because the Jews couldn’t be blamed.

The person Mehdi is mocking here is a teacher at Temple Israel. She was putting her class of toddlers down for a nap when a terrorist drove a truck into the building.

I challenge anyone to watch this video and deny the naked bigotry of the antizionist hate movement.

Every sentient journalist here knows these are the sources of "news" in Gaza, and have been since the Hamas takeover 19 years ago. This is obviously a major story, but Western editors can't cover it honestly because they've all played ball and are thus implicated themselves.

Again people think I’m exaggerating when I say that large parts of the western left have radicalised themselves into explicit support for terrorism.
Look no further than this. A white American praising Hezbollah and attacking Lebanon’s elected pro-western government.

I'm amazed at the performative "I love Jews" while at the same time singling out and wanting to destroy the only Jewish state they pray to for thousands of years.
After studying Judaism, I realized you cannot separate Judaism from Israel, just like you cannot separate Islam from Saudi Arabia.

To be clear, there isn’t a non-racist way to call Leader Jeffries—a Black man—a “monkey” or “errand boy.”
@WajahatAli, this is what happens when we hold ourselves to such low standards for what’s allowable in our discourse—people get comfortable being openly bigoted.
We have to stop platforming and trafficking in anti-Black racism, whether it’s on the political right or the left.

In an op-ed for The New York Times, I argue that saving Gaza & its Palestinian people requires resisting Hamas, weaving in personal themes, addressing issues with the Left & "pro-Palestine" movement & proposing a vision for Gaza's future Transformation.
