One of the most terrifying attacks carried out by Israel,
where it completely destroyed the Mashteha Tower within a matter of seconds, as it is considered one of the largest and most beautiful towers in Gaza, and houses thousands of families living in it,
despite the thousands of tents that were located on every side of this tower, aircraft launched no less than 6 deadly missiles that resulted in thousands of lethal shrapnel fragments, which led to the destruction of thousands of tents that were the only shelter for the families.
This is not just a war, this is genocide.

This real-time 1948 article from The Economist completely destroys the modern “Nakba” narrative that was invented decades later as political propaganda.
Straight from British eyewitnesses in Haifa, October 2, 1948:
“Jewish authorities urged all Arabs to remain in Haifa and guaranteed them protection and security ... However, of the 62,000 Arabs who formerly lived in Haifa, not more than 5,000 or 6,000 remained.
The most potent factor was the announcements made over the air by the Arab Higher Executive, urging the Arabs to quit ... those who remained and accepted Jewish protection would be regarded as renegades.”
They didn’t flee because of “Zionist ethnic cleansing.”
They fled because Arab leaders ordered them to get out of the way so their armies could “drive the Jews into the sea.”
Then they lost the war they started — and spent the next 77 years rewriting history to blame the Jews.
The “Nakba” you were taught? Pure revisionist fiction.

The word “Nakba” (catastrophe) wasn’t invented by Palestinians to describe Jewish “ethnic cleansing.” It was coined in 1948 by a Syrian Arab historian, Constantin Zureiq, in his book The Meaning of the Disaster. He used it to describe the humiliating failure of the Arab world — their leaders’ arrogance, their lies to their own people, their military incompetence, and their refusal to accept a Jewish state. Zureiq wrote that the Arabs had “imaginary victories” and put their public “to sleep” with boasts — until the real disaster hit: they couldn’t wipe out the Jews. The original Nakba wasn’t about refugees. That a rebrand from several decades later. It was about the Arab leaders’ catastrophic decision to launch a war of extermination ... and lose. They’ve spent 77 years rebranding their own failure as Jewish guilt. That’s the only real "Nakba" they can’t forgive.

Imagine being so morally bankrupt that you design, order, pay for, and proudly hang a terrorist flag at NYU’s graduation.
It takes a special kind of vile low-life to turn a celebration of achievement into a glorification of hate.
Whoever is responsible should be expelled immediately if they’re a student and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
Enough is enough.
Hen Mazzig@HenMazzig
A flag featuring swastikas and a Star of David flew over NYU during graduation today. The specific building it was flown over was named after a Jewish donor to the school. Does no one feel shame anymore?

Confirmed: rapists, cowards and vile deviants.
Volumes of incontrovertible evidence of the depravity of Hamas.
NYT preemptively dropped a grotesque op-ed with sources linked to Hamas for a beachhead of “bothsiderism” Hamas defenders.

.@NYCMayor is allowing violence against Jews in his city. I guess we can’t be surprised. It’s disgusting.
It’s time for ACCOUNTABILITY. Will @SenSchumer stand up for the Jewish community in NY and condemn this?

Two weeks ago, Gazan women testified to a system of rape by Hamas to Palestinian women living in tents.
Last week, Gazan children testified to being raped by Hamas clerics.
This week, a report revealed the extent of sexual violence on Oct. 7th.
The NYT hasn’t written a word.

Flashback: The Israeli guest was completely traumatized and shocked.
A Sky News TV host declares that Hamas was right and managed to expose Israel and Jews as immoral Islamophobes.
She claims that by kidnapping hundreds of Israelis on October 7, including women and children, and forcing Israel to release countless Muslim terrorists (who murdered Jews) for every Jewish hostage freed from Gaza, Hamas proved that Jews are racists who see themselves as superior to Muslims.
This British journalist insists that Jewish willingness to trade several terrorists for every kidnapped citizen is proof of Jewish supremacy and that Hamas are the real victims of “Islamophobia”.
What is your reaction to her claim?

🚨 🇮🇱 🇮🇷 Does Israel need a nuclear weapon?
Ex-IDF spokesman Jonathan Conricus and legal analyst Dimitri Lascaris debated the legitimacy of Israel having nuclear weapons vs Iran possessing the same.
Jonathan suggested Israel is a special case, a nation that has been attacked in the Middle East more consistently than any other, making a nuclear arsenal a potentially crucial means of survival.
Dimitri argued the sheer number of civilian casualties incurred from Israeli aggression suggests Israel is far from fit to be entrusted with nuclear weapons.
@JConricus, @DimitriLascaris

🚨 🇮🇱 🇱🇧 Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz announced that communities south of the Litani River would never be allowed to return home, displacing hundreds of thousands of people. Ex-IDF spokesman Jonathan Conricus argued that this would simply be an unfortunate reality wherein Israel has to choose its own survival over that of southern Lebanon. Legal analyst Dimitri Lascaris argued that the directive is actually nothing short of state-sponsored terrorism, something he says is part of an Israeli tradition he witnessed personally on the ground. @JConricus, @DimitriLascaris

This New York Times "article" about Israel is such a journalistic atrocity that I actually feel stupid reading it out loud.
If everyone at the NYT who is responsible for this is not fired, then the publication will lose whatever shred of credibility it has left.

The NYT published an opinion column accusing Israel of systematic sexual abuse the night before a major report documenting Hamas’ October 7 sexual atrocities was released. Not an investigation, but an opinion piece built heavily on claims from Euro-Med Monitor, whose leadership has documented ties to Hamas networks.
If abuse is happening, it should be investigated seriously. But regurgitating absurd claims such as that “Israel trained dogs to rape Palestinians” does not help victims of sexual violence. It makes a mockery of them. Shame on the New York Times.

Mob of Pro-Hezbollah / Hamas shitheads raging against law enforcement and terrorizing the NYC Jewish community near a synagogue and day care.
Where’s my party’s condemnation?
Rabbi Poupko@RabbiPoupko
To summarize the evening: the mob came to a Synagogue, forced a Jewish day care to close early, came with a Hezbollah flag, cheered for intifada, and said "we don't want no Zionists here". We cannot normalize this behavior.

🇮🇱🇱🇧 Not long ago, the idea that Israel should occupy southern Lebanon, expel its population, and build settlements there sounded extreme enough to ignore. It lived on the edges, where political fantasies usually go to die.
In a matter of weeks, the vision pushed by the Israeli far-right movement, Uri Tzafon, has gone from fringe to something far more dangerous: acceptable. And the playbook is painfully familiar.
Start with security. Point to Hezbollah, a real threat, and stretch that reality just far enough to justify something bigger. Suddenly, moving the border to the Litani River isn’t expansion, it’s “defense.”
Then comes the part people pretend is temporary. Evacuations. “Buffer zones.” Destroyed villages that, conveniently, no one is meant to return to. This is where policy stops being theoretical and starts reshaping reality on the ground.
And then, almost inevitably, comes the endgame: civilians, settlements, permanence.
What used to be a political third rail is now being handled pretty casually. Members of the Knesset are openly calling for full control of southern Lebanon. Figures like Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich and former Deputy PM Avigdor Lieberman are signaling support.
What sounded outrageous a year ago now sounds “tough.” What sounded illegal now sounds “complicated.” Give it a little more time and it’ll sound inevitable.
We’ve seen this before: the West Bank didn’t become what it is overnight. It was built step by step, each one justified, each one framed as temporary, each one somehow sticking around. Temporary has a way of becoming permanent when it’s backed by bulldozers.
What’s different now is the speed. Polls suggesting majority support for pushing up to the Litani River show just how quickly the center of gravity has shifted. The argument isn’t really about whether this should happen anymore; it’s about how to sell it.
Meanwhile, the consequences aren’t abstract. People are already being displaced. Towns are already being destroyed. Once that happens, “reversing course” becomes a polite fiction.
And then there’s the part no one really wants to say out loud. When Putin carved up parts of Ukraine, the response from Western governments was immediate and loud: sanctions, speeches, moral clarity on repeat. When Israel starts talking about doing something similar in Lebanon, the reaction is… silence.

🇱🇧🇮🇱 Israel bombed 21+ Lebanese villages in a single day while a ceasefire was active. Bint Jbeil. Tibnin. Kafra. Deir Qanoun. Towns across the entire south hit back to back. Is this what they call a ceasefire?

Lebanon is the second most-documented genocide in history after Palestine, yet the most denied.

@MarioNawfal If you git hezbolkah out and if they weren’t a constant threat that states they want to kill you then this is what needed to be done

🇮🇱🇱🇧 Israel is now openly calling it the "Gaza model" in Lebanon
2,600 dead, over a million displaced, dozens of towns near the southern border completely flattened. A several-mile-deep buffer zone Israel says it plans to permanently occupy.
Deliberate destruction of civilian infrastructure at this scale, paired with mass displacement, is the definition of what war crimes tribunals were built for.
The part that makes this different from Gaza is the explicit admission… Israeli officials aren't hiding the playbook.
