an open mind is like an open wound




Piers, the IDF is operating in accordance with international law against Hezbollah, a terrorist organization that is hell-bent on killing Israelis. You would do the same if it were your family in danger. Pay no attention to Ben Gvir. He’s a clown who represents neither Israel’s values nor its actions. He didn’t serve a single day as a soldier, so he’s just spewing nonsense. We’re defending ourselves in a war we didn’t start and don’t want. And I will ensure that we continue to defend ourselves.

Israeli MP Michal Waldiger: No one is innocent in Gaza. Yes, children should be killed too. There is no other way.

Attacking Jasmine Crockett on Juneteenth was a choice.


Mamdani: AIPAC, for whom the only thing more frightening than democracy being allowed to run its course is an end to genocide in Netanyahu's wars.

The guy's job is basically just to fix potholes and make sure the street sweepers and snow plows are all working and he cannot stop talking about the Jews overseas.

BREAKING: Israeli ambassador Danny Danon lost it on camera at the UN after Israel was added to a blacklist of parties suspected of conflict-related sexual violence. At a meeting Friday, Danon erupted at UN officials, demanded the resignation of Pramila Patten, the UN’s special representative on sexual violence in conflict, and tried to shout down Vanessa Frazier after she objected that the findings were based on verified evidence. “You will be quiet now,” Danon snapped. I interviewed Danny Danon 15 years ago on HuffPost Live. When I held him to account, he walked out of the interview. Sadly, the footage has been lost. But the pattern was not lost. This is what Israeli officials so often do when confronted with evidence they cannot bomb, bury, spin, or intimidate into silence: they attack the messenger. They accuse the institution. They demand resignations. They perform outrage as a substitute for accountability. The issue is not whether Danny Danon is offended. The issue is whether victims of alleged sexual violence, Palestinian detainees, and children in Israeli custody will be heard over the shouting of a state that has grown accustomed to impunity. Israel was recently added to a UN blacklist for conflict-related sexual violence. Danon revealed the strategy: when the evidence speaks, tell the room to be quiet.



They knew exactly who Mona Khalil was. They knew the bright orange house in Mansouri, south Lebanon. They knew it was not a military site, not a command center, not a battlefield position. It was one of the most recognizable symbols of environmental conservation on Lebanon's southern coast; a sanctuary dedicated to protecting endangered sea turtles and preserving life. Mona spent her years defending the most vulnerable creatures of the Mediterranean, teaching generations that every life matters, that nature is not a casualty to be discarded, and that humanity has a duty to protect what cannot protect itself. Yet the same orange house that stood as a beacon of conservation became a target for terrorist Israel. This was an assault on a woman whose life's work was devoted to safeguarding life itself. A woman known internationally for her environmental activism, whose name had become synonymous with the protection of Lebanon's coastline and its endangered sea turtles. The murder of Mona Khalil sends a chilling message: even those whose only weapon is compassion, whose only mission is preservation, are not spared.


"To defeat Iran, America needs to end all negotiation and fight through blockades or kinetic war or boots on the ground wherever necessary." British-born Jewish Zionist activist Melanie Phillips tells JNS Summit in Jerusalem that America needs to wage total war on Iran.



The mayor of the city with the world’s largest Jewish population is pushing conspiracy theories about “money men” who “move millions in dark money” to “turn us against one another” — and calling them “monsters.” Subtle.
