@officalnyer @BenStiller Trump is literally saying he wants to destroy an entire civilization. He’s explicitly said that the US will bomb civilian infrastructure including bridges and power plants. That’s not a war against the regime, it’s a war against the Iranian people

@BenStiller Ben, 90M Iranians have suffered for decades dealing with this terrorist regime. Why end it now ? My parents were born in Iran, in fact most of my family members were born there. A Terrorist regime must be destroyed. Tens of thousands died fighting them.

@nielsdevita @pyjamas_black @MazMHussain Well if we’re bombing schools too why would you expect the Iranians to think any differently of us? Why wouldn’t they kill US civilians and use this same justification? War is hell because we make it hell, but we didn’t have to

@pyjamas_black @MazMHussain How many schools have the terrorist organizations sponsored by the Iranian regime destroyed over the years? War is horrific, but if that’s all it takes for the Iranian people to suddenly flip and rally behind the IRGC, they’re doomed as a people

Seems like the west understimates how shocking the killing of 200 schoolgirls was to Iranians, the football team who a few years ago refused to sing the anthem came out with schoolbags as a tribute, every local interviewed mentions it

Iran's IRGC praised these nomads from the southern provinces for independently shooting down two Black Hawk helicopters that had entered Iran to rescue pilots of a downed F-15. ENGLISH SUBTITLES

@Sturgeons_Law @souljagoyteller This is the stronger point. The issue with the US isn't whether American Jews were Zionist or not, but that the US didn't let Jews immigrate to the US when it was most needed (leading obviously to placing a premium on sovereignty)

History has also provided us with the fact that American Jews have lived in relative safety and security for decades, enjoy considerable wealth and influence, and that their achievements far outstrip those of Israeli Jews. Zionism was not behind their success.

@Jimmy08323668 @DuncanSmithNBA @atrupar Well Trump proposed cutting the NASA budget by a quarter, along with huge cuts to every other science agency. I think it would be strange if these astronauts didn’t have an opinion on that

By and large people on the left like Mamdani focus on ending apartheid and genocide. It’s Israel who equates that demand with the destruction of their state.
Sir Humphrey 🇺🇦@bdquinn

There's been a big misread on this point among the left. The aggressive Israeli stance, which is that the Palestinians will ultimately just have to relocate to Jordan, Egypt, or elsewhere, is quite unpopular. The idea Israel needs to cease to exist? That's even more unpopular.

@ReuvenWeinstein @QueenMab87 You’re pretty clearly trying to have it both ways here. ‘Next year in Jerusalem’ is meant to be taken literally but ‘Am Yisrael Chai’ is not? To me it’s always been clear that ‘next year in Jerusalem’ is about wishing for the messiah and the rebuilding of the temple

@QueenMab87 ...do you think the geographic location of biblical Israel and modern Israel are so completely different? No, the Torah doesn't say "next year in Bibi run Israel" but it does say Israel. It specifically talks about this land, this exact geographic location.

@alt_echo_ @AmYisrael1111 Yeah that ended in the 11th century. My point is that it was not common for e.g.. eastern european Jews to visit Jerusalem even if they had the means to do so, so it’s pretty clear that ‘next year in Jerusalem’ was generally meant as a metaphor

Passover has long been my favorite Jewish holiday. But I’ve always struggled with the Tenth Plague — and now more than ever. So for this year’s Haggadah, we added a midrash from Exodus Rabbah about Israelite parents who welcomed firstborn Egyptian kids into their homes on that fateful night.

@GianmarcoSoresi You are aware of the story of Passover, right? There’s a reason the Seder ends with the words “Next year in Jerusalem”. I know you think it’s a joke but maybe skip the matzoh all together if you don’t think Israel should exist.

@MarkGoldfeder This is wild given we are currently in a disastrous war with iran because Netanyahu railed against the JCPOA for decades and finally got a president willing to follow him to war. That’s what our alliance with Israel has gotten us

Woe to all of those who do not understand how the world works. Why should the U.S. help Israel defend itself you ask? Because U.S. aid to Israel, while generous, is an investment, not a charity, and is crucial for America’s own national security interests. Let me explain:
Mark Goldfeder@MarkGoldfeder

Dear @AOC, Israel is home to ~7.7 million Jews and 2.1 million Arabs. Opposing defensive aid means opposing their protection from deadly rocket fire. You aren't principled, you are reckless and morally obscene. I shouldn't have to do it, but... let me explain this (slowly):

I’m confused. Defensive military aid stops rockets aimed at innocent children and families. So, why oppose it? We provide defensive military aid to Ukraine, Taiwan, Egypt, Jordan, Iraq, Kenya, etc. @AOC Should we cut all of them off? Or is that your policy just for the Jews?
Peter Sterne@petersterne

BREAKING: At tonight’s NYC-DSA electoral forum, @AOC committed to voting against “any spending on arms for Israel, including so-called defensive capabilities.”

“In theory, a weapon like Iron Dome could be used only defensively. But in practice it doesn’t work that way,” analyst Nathan Thrall told Jewish Currents. “Iron Dome facilitates greater Israeli offensive measures, because it lowers the perceived cost to Israel of escalating or extending or initiating attacks.” jewishcurrents.org/iron-dome-is-n…
Guy Benson@guypbenson

Iron Dome (purely defensive) saves so many innocent lives and AOC is now apparently committed to defunding it. Wrong types of lives that system is saving, it seems.

@TheToolGuy4 Some people are really resistant to the idea that language is fundamentally interpretative and subjective. It reminds me of the people who complain about anime translation not being ‘literal’ without understanding that there is essentially no such thing as literal translation

So, as a hearing impaired person, fluent in Sign Language, I will EXPLAIN what is happening here. - The interpreter translates SPEECH, MUSIC orally. - You will notice, that once the singer starts to sing, he interprets the words with his hand signals. /1
Ryan Gerritsen🇨🇦🇳🇱@ryangerritsen

Instead of deaf people just watching the actual artists perform, CBC puts a sign language interpreter on to perform air guitar & drum solos for them to watch along side of it. Whats going on in Canada? It’s a 24/7 nut house

@JoelMartinRubin You don’t seem to understand that american jews don’t support Israel’s actions anymore either, especially not the democratic voting ones. The democratic party needs to be loyal above all else to principles like not supporting genocide and apartheid, not a small subset of zionists

American Jews have been the most loyal Democratic voting group, based upon religion and ethnic criteria, in the modern era. Not to mention our contributions to Democratic aligned organizations, elected official counts, fundraisers and thought leadership. The party must not exile American Jews because of our support for Israel (in all of its complexities) if it still wants to be considered a legitimate political party.
Joe Walsh@WalshFreedom

As a very new Democrat, I am so damn concerned about this. The Democratic Party will not win nationally and will not win in battleground states if they abandon their support for Israel.
