@mattxiv Only if your ignored the leaflets advising you to leave prior to the IDF strategic strike on a terrorist target. Or Hamas does not allow you to leave. Unlike Hamas, Israel warns people to evacuate and does not fire indiscriminately at civilians.

hi dave portnoy i’m “the gay kid” in the video :) if i went to gaza i would killed by an israeli drone strike

Posting again, please 𝙨𝙝𝙖𝙧𝙚 because it seems the phrase “Genocide” is still being redefined by people who don’t have a clue. The ICJ did NOT find that there was a Genocide in Gaza, not even a “PLAUSIBLE” one like they keep saying Don’t believe me? Hear it from the President of the ICJ

My latest piece in The @Algemeiner - “A 19-Year Name vs. 3,000 Years of History: Judea vs. ‘West Bank.’” Almost all major media treats “West Bank” as neutral while dismissing “Judea and Samaria” as ideological or “far-right.” History says otherwise. “West Bank” was coined by Jordan in 1949 after its unlawful seizure of the territory during the Arab League’s openly declared offensive war of annihilation against Israel. “Judea and Samaria” - on the other hand - are names used for millennia - including in the 1947 UN Partition Plan itself. The piece also examines how media framing often strips away chronology, cause and effect, and historical context when it comes to Israel. algemeiner.com/2026/05/07/a-1…

Really fascinating to hear self-declared anti-fascists calling for litmus tests to determine why people enter a house of worship…and then deciding, based on the answer, whether they deserve safe access. That is not how democracy works.

I beat Strom Thurmond’s son in a majority-white district for a seat in Congress. Then won statewide in South Carolina, a majority white state. South Carolina elects leaders based on ideas, not identity. Stop erasing reality to rig the game.

This Day (May 7) in 1945, Nazi Germany finally surrendered. The same day, Grand Mufti Amin al-Husseini fled Berlin by plane. Here’s how he escaped justice for his war crimes (spoiler alert: blame France again!). First, the Mufti landed his plane in Bern, Switzerland and begged for asylum. The Swiss said no. They detained him and immediately handed him over to French authorities. What happened next is one of the most brazen post-war scandals in modern history. Instead of standing trial, the Mufti was placed under “house arrest” in a luxurious villa just outside Paris. For an entire year he lived in comfort, shaved his iconic beard, wore Western suits, and moved about with virtual freedom while Britain and Yugoslavia demanded his extradition as a war criminal. France refused to hand him over. Then, on May 29, 1946, using a fake passport in the name of Ma’ruf al-Dawalibi, the Mufti simply walked out, boarded a TWA flight to Cairo ... and vanished. The French Foreign Minister didn’t even realize he was gone for more than 12 days. In Egypt, he was greeted as a conquering hero. King Farouk gave him protection and luxury. The Muslim Brotherhood hailed him as “the Arab hero and symbol of jihad.” No trial. No shame. No consequences. And his legacy, unfortunately, endured. As this documentary clip puts it: “The Grand Mufti's place as leader of the Palestinian Arabs was eventually taken by a relative ... Yasser Arafat. In August 2002, Arafat gave an interview in which he referred to al-Husseini as a symbol of Palestinian Arab resistance. He called him simply, ‘a hero.’” This is how war criminals become legends to be emulated and revered — when a likeminded ideology protects and lionizes them.

This was posted by Shlomo Isaacs. I hope it is okay that I am sharing it here.... Shlomo writes: Breaking News! (if you have a heart this may make you cry, but its worth the read.) David's 6 year-old daughter wrote a prayer for school. David: "Every year at her age, the girls write a tefillah ishit 'a personal prayer'. They read them out loud in front of the parents. I has been through this three times already with my older kids. Every prayer, year after year, was about the same things: Please let me be a good friend. Please help me listen to my parents. Please bring health to my family. Sweet. Small....The world of a six-year-old. Then last week I sat in that auditorium and listened to my youngest read hers. I was horrified; her entire prayer was about war. About soldiers. About fathers in Miluim. About pain. How do you relate to the painful world she lives in? That's what she thinks prayer is for. I sat there in a folding chair, in my button-down shirt I hadn't worn in months because I'd been in uniform, and I realized: My daughter doesn't know a peaceful Israel. She was four when October 7th happened. She is six now. In her head; IF I WOULD come home and sleep in my own bed it would be maybe for two weeks and then, I'd already be packing again. Across two units, two fronts, and one war that refuses to end — I've done over 375 days away from her. That's roughly half her life since she was old enough to remember me. She doesn't remember the real version of me... the one that wasn't tired. She doesn't remember a father who took her to school, played with her in the afternoons and put her to bed. The truth hurts so much so here is MY own tefillah ishit: Please let my children never have to do what I'm doing. That's it. That's the whole prayer. Not "let me be a hero." Not "let me come home safely." Not even "let us win." Just — let my kids grow up (PLEASE G-D), and let this end with my generation. Let them write prayers about friendships. About trips they want to take. About the dog they want their parents to buy them. Not about Abba coming home. Not about soldiers. Not about war. If people ask what the war did to us as fathers. I'll tell you. It's more then just steal years. It rewrote what our children think childhood is. It wired her brain and took her innocence. Made her think she is supposed to pray when she feels in danger. She's not wrong. But God, I wish she didn't know that yet, I wish she would pray for normal-kid things. #BeneathTheUniform #AmYisraelChai #Miluim

@HilzFuld שבכל דור ודור עומדים עלינו לכלותינו וקדוש ברוך הוא מצילנו מידם. Grandma like grandson- heroes overcoming Nazis. עם ישראל חי!

I imagine a conversation with my late grandmother in Auschwitz. “Hey grandma.” “Hey darling.” “I know you’re living through the worst humanity has to offer but I have to tell you something that I’m not sure you’ll know how to digest…” “Ok…” “So grandma, I am writing to you from the future. It’s 2026. That’s not the craziest part though. The craziest part is I’m writing this to you from the comfort of my home in the modern state of… Israel.” “Israel? The Jews are back in Israel? Like the land of Israel? From the Torah? The place we’ve been longing for and praying about for thousands of years? That Israel?” “Yes, grandma, that Israel. We have our own state now.” “You’re right. I don’t know how to digest that.” “Grandma, brace yourself because it’s about to get a whole lot crazier!” “What could be crazier than an ancient land coming back to life and an ancient nation returning to it?” “Grandma, sit down.” “Alright? I’m sitting. You are scaring me here.” “Don’t worry. No reason to be scared. Sad, maybe, but not scared.” “More sadness?” “Well, grandma, your daughter, your only daughter, my mom, now has 5 sons, over 20 grandkids and many great grandkids. They all live in Israel.” “Ok, why is that sad?” “That’s not, but what I am about to tell you is…” “One of those children, your grandson, Ari, my older brother was murdered by a terrorist.” “What?!” “Yes, it’s true. He was. And in his last breath, he saved lives.” “What? That’s incredible.” “Yes, and as a result of his heroism in his last breath, your grandson, Ari, is now officially a national hero of the state of Israel.” “Well, you were right. I don’t know how to digest this.” “Grandma, I’m not done.” “What can possibly be crazier than what you just told me?!” “Well, grandma, not only are we here in Israel, but the western wall, the last remaining part of our temple is ours and it is accessible to us whenever we want.” “Wow, that is indeed incredible. Is that it?!” “No, grandma, that’s not it.” “Oh boy, what else?” “Well, this is really going to be hard for you to believe but today, any Jew who walks into the plaza of the western wall is met with a massive poster with your grandson Ari’s face on it.” “I don’t understand.” “Ari has become a symbol of heroism. He is an icon of resilience. He has become a household name in Israel and right there, upon entering the area of the western wall is a massive picture of Ari. The photo of him is accompanied by a holiday greeting wishing everyone a happy Yom Yerushalayim, the day on which we celebrate the reunification of Jerusalem and the return of the Old City to Jewish control during the June 1967 Six-Day War. Your grandson’s face is prominently displayed on the wall right next to the western wall!” …. …. …. …. “You weren’t kidding when you said I won’t be able to digest any of this.” My grandson is displayed on a wall next to the western wall, which is ours? In the land of Israel, which is also ours? Is this a joke? Is this a prank?” “No, grandma, you might feel hopeless right now but I assure you, you will leave that camp victorious. Those evil men trying to destroy you and our nation? They will fail and you, grandma, you will win. You will have a large family of Jews who live in Israel and who upkeep Jewish tradition and one of those grandsons of yours will change millions of lives and will ultimately become a national hero with his face displayed next to the western wall.” “Well, you have left me speechless. I don’t know what to say to any of this.” “I told you. Just know this though. Am Yisrael Chai. The end of the movie is that we win. Sorry for the spoiler. Stay strong, Grandma because your victory is near. Here’s a photo for you of Ari’s face right there next to the western wall. Take a good look, grandma, because you did this. This is all you. You have a long life ahead of you even if that’s hard to imagine right now.” “Thank you, you have indeed given me hope!”

The Brandeis Center, a legal watchdog group, is calling on the Department of Justice to investigate Georgetown University for violations of the Foreign Agents Registration Act after the Free Beacon reported on a contract requiring Georgetown to consult with a Qatari government group when planning events on “Islamophobia.”

People who are claiming that the "Real estate in Israel" event at a synagogue in NYC that protestors attempted to storm was "illegal" aren't referring to US law or Israeli law, but to some law that doesn't exist except in their minds. Of course, if it were actually illegal, there would have been no need to protest, they could have just asked the cops to shut it down.

Mamdani’s condemnation of an aliyah event was not just shameful. It may have legal consequences. My latest for @NRO: nationalreview.com/2026/05/mamdan…

“You'd expect the New York Times say, ok, people are being bombarded with crazy, crazy information on the internet. We will be the island of sanity where people will swim in order to know what's going on.” NOPE @MattiFriedman says they’ve done the opposite - becoming part of the same distorted information ecosystem, just in more polished language.

Just @AdnanHussainMP hugging extremist Sami Hamdi, who was kicked out of the US for celebrating the “victory” of October 7. What a disgrace. These “Gaza independent” MPs shame our Parliament and contaminate British politics. Wake up!

Very interesting editorial decision to publish an unrepentant apologist for October 7th on antisemitism. And by interesting I mean this is very obviously a fundamentally unserious publication that doesn’t give a shit about antisemitism.

Primary source proof — the actual 1943 telegram straight from Himmler’s own hand to the Grand Mufti. Key lines: “The National-Socialist Movement of the Greater German Reich has since its inception upheld the fight against World Jewry … The common recognition of the enemy and the joint struggle against it is what creates the firm foundation between Germany and freedom-seeking Muslims around the world … I am pleased to convey to you … warm wishes for your continued struggle until the great victory.” Lesser-known detail: Himmler timed this for the Mufti to read aloud at a massive Nazi rally in Berlin’s Luftwaffe Hall — while the Mufti was already living as Hitler’s honored guest and personally recruiting thousands of Bosnian Muslims into the Waffen-SS “Handschar” division to fight alongside the Nazis. This wasn’t some vague sympathy. It was a formal, operational alliance against the Jews — documented in real time. The same eliminationist ideology that partnered with the Nazis in 1943 is still alive today.

“We’ve lost 9/11 survivors, but guess what? We’ve found a new audience among 9/11 perpetrators!”

It never fails, when somebody makes hating Israel their entire political identity, it's because they are guilty of many of the same things they accuse Israel of.

If you need more proof (besides for the Hezbollah flag) it’s not about zionism 🔽

The 'Palestinian land' myth, the ghoulish intention to make Gush Etzion judenrein again, and the historical ignorance of the Hamasnik mob and their stenographers: commentary.org/seth-mandel/th…

The pro-Hamas people view Israel’s continued existence as a genocide. That’s why they won’t stop bleating about genocide even though the war is long over and why they started bleating about genocide long before it began. The word is a meaningless cudgel to them.
