Today is Missing & Murdered Indigenous Women Awareness Day. Murder is the 3rd leading cause of death among Native Americans aged 10-24 & Native women are 10x more likely to be murdered or sexually assaulted. 95% of MMIW cases are not covered by the media (@ProjNativeHope)

If you care about this conflict, and have a few minutes to spare, please read this piece by @Ha_Matar. It is the best thing I've read this whole month. Brave, detailed, balanced, empathetic, and with a few small embers of hope at the end. 972mag.com/october-war-is…

Bears repeating: I am an Israeli Jew. I refuse to see all Palestinians as my enemy. Do some of them want us gone? Of course. Do some Israelis want them gone? Of course. But I can still decide where I stand. And I choose to continue looking for a way forward.

CNN statement on their freelancer who embedded with Hamas during the Oct. 7 massacre of Israeli civilians: “We are aware of the article and photo concerning Hassan Eslaiah, a freelance photojournalist who has worked with a number of international and Israeli outlets. While we have not at this time found reason to doubt the journalistic accuracy of the work he has done for us, we have decided to suspend all ties with him.”

Sorry for the anger, but a month into this I am so sick—like nauseous sick—of people justifying or denying what Hamas did on October 7th *and* people justifying or denying what Israel has been doing in Gaza since then. Both are real and both are wrong. Deal with the facts.

We urgently need a coalition of the kind and the reasonable, all over the world. This may sound nuts, but I think we can do it. Would you like to hear more? (Asking to give myself the courage to do this.)

Not antisemitic: to criticize the Israeli government, its leaders, or its policies as you would that of any other country. Israelis do this every day. Totally, hideously, 100% antisemitic: to criticize or attack Jews around the world for Israel's actions.

I love Israel, I have family there. But sadly, the current government is right wing extremist. A government that speaks like that is dangerous. It is not only dangerous to the Palestinian people, but also for the future of Jewish Israelis and everyone who lives there.

NOW - Netanyahu: "We are the people of the light, they are the people of darkness... we shall realize the prophecy of Isaiah."

Replies to this are insane. I'll break it down Barney-style for Twitter: NOT ANTISEMITISM: - Wanting to address humanitarian crisis of Palestinians - Opposing Israel's government and policies ANTISEMITISM: - Cheerleading Hamas - Wanting to destroy Israel and displace 9 million

Confession: I’ve incorrectly assumed the far left doesn’t have an antisemitism problem. I believed our ranks were filled with people like me that opposed Netanyahu’s far right policies, not Israel itself. That is clearly not true. I’m embarrassed I didn’t see this sooner.

Our hope was to leave the audience feeling informed on the questions and issues that still need to be addressed, but excited to hear about potential solutions that have proven success metrics. I believe we achieved this!
