Additionally, I want to speak directly to Iranian New Yorkers: you are part of the fabric of this city β you are our neighbors, small business owners, students, artists, workers, and community leaders.Β You will be safe here.
leading the charge against antisemitism by endorsing the criminal actions of a deeply unpopular president in pursuit of a war deeply unpopular with the american people on behalf of a country that interferes in u.s. elections in support of right-wing extremists
This is disgusting. How dare you purport to represent Reform Judaism.
It should go without saying that the realization of Bibi and Bolton's decades-long dreams of a war with Iran is a horrific reality to wake up to, and also I hope folks don't lose sight of the war being waged on trans people in the USA right now. We can fight both! www.aclukansas.org/publications...

this bill is legitimately a three-alarm fire. if they manage to define trans existence as explicit then there is nothing stopping them from genocide. i need every single cis person talking about this, calling their reps, getting out in the streets.
Your coup story is going to play a central role in my weekly drash!
So much for the tolerant left.
I mean, this was how antisemitism was designed to function in medieval and early modern Europe. I do think, though, that for a great number of people today βthe Jewsβ arenβt at the top of their conspiracy list.
Itβs very funny that Shaun King is trying to arbitrate authenticity of Jewish identity givenβ¦you knowβ¦that heβs Shaun King.
Itβs an inarguably bad month.
And it always goes out with a bang (my birthday)
You gotta then write the sequel in which 1800 years later a bunch of people on the other side of the world pick up the writings and turn them into a vicious form of nationalism that draws them back to the land of the original writings to become the villains that the good Dr. sought to overthrow.
π΄ Israel killed up to 15 people in Gaza yesterday, including women and children, wiping out entire families. The pretext was an alleged clash with fighters in western Rafah two days ago. Whatβs likely happening is a familiar pattern. Israeli and American forces conduct constant surveillance, identify where βtargetsβ live, then manufacture a trigger to eliminate them. Fighters in Rafah, east of the yellow line, are trapped and denied any negotiated exit. When Israeli forces move in and open fire, return fire is framed as a βviolation,β which is then used to justify wider strikes across Gaza, including assassinations of senior Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad commanders along with their family members. Follow the thread below for the sequence Israel itself laid out for the killings it carried out yesterday: π§΅

But it's all about Netanyahu, amiright?
Yair Lapid, opposition leader in the Israeli Knesset, tweeted: "The regime in Iran should pay close to attention to what is happening in Venezuela."
as a short poster myself, I always assumed you were significantly taller than me.

Post a perfect album from the 90s that isnβt Nirvana, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, or Alice In Chains.
FWIW, going to your grave believing something completely irreconcilable with reality is the hallmark of a cult.
While some Judaism is being used to justify violence, nationalism, and supremacy, we need a Judaism that benefits everyone. This course seeks out what to preserve, what to reject, and what will guide us to liberation for all.
Synch + asynch. Open to all. Starts Jan 6.
