Home Depot was founded in 1978 by Bernie Marcus and Arthur Blank, two Jewish businessmen from working class backgrounds. After being fired from a hardware chain, they started Home Depot, reshaping home improvement retail and building an iconic U.S. company.

Golda Meir, born in Kyiv and raised in Milwaukee, became Israel’s Prime Minister in 1969. The first woman Prime Minister in a Western style democracy, and a global symbol of leadership.

@mariorustan @nytimes They appear to have changed that headline. A lot of their Jewish- and/or Israel-related headlines seem to require that these days.

Anyone w/a print @nytimes able to tell me if there is, indeed, a single article within (on p. A19, according to what I was able to discern at the verrry bottom of A1) about the attack on the Michigan synagogue? "Today's Paper" contents reveal nothing, as far as I can tell.

@OrenKessler Also, independent bookstores in the US showcase books like hers and others that promote hatred of Jews and have whole sections of these books, while Palestine 1936 and others like The Gates of Gaza and Ghosts of a Holy War are often absent. Where is the balance?

Abulhawa is embraced far beyond the pro-Palestine world. She still publishes books with major publishers, still speaks at major literary festivals. It's obscene. But I'd be shocked if Duwaji – a far more obscure illustrator – turned down an offer to illustrate her article.

The bigger problem is that Abulhawa, author of "Mornings in Jenin," remains in good odor in book world. She's completely, utterly odious, referring to Israelis as "cultureless, rootless ghouls," and "demonic parasites" in tweet after tweet. Given that, the rest is unsurprising.
Jon Levine@LevineJonathan

NEW from me Zohran Mamdani's wife, Rama Duwaji, provided illustrations for a book compiled by Susan Abulhawa — who has called Jews "rootless parasites" , "cockroaches" "rabid demons" — and many other names

@Howard_Lovy It's from the old playbook, as old as time. First it was religion, then it was race, and now it's a nation. It's all the same and what amazes me now in our era of instant information is that people continue to fall for this. You'd think they'd be a little brighter in 2026.

We are witnessing, in real time, what the antizionist form of antisemitism does. It dehumanizes Jews around the world and makes it easier for the public to accept the attempted massacre of Jewish children in suburban Detroit.

Hi everyone, I've learned that my article for Rolling Stone really, really upsets the anti-Israel fanatics. So please, don't repost my latest article for @RollingStone, unless you want them to be even angrier 😢 rollingstone.com/culture/cultur…

The antisemitic hate mail is, predictably, pouring in. I get these often, but the Jew-haters are in an especially foul mood because of Iran. Just got one from "Susan Allison," who, strangely, has used that alias before. I'm pretty sure I know who it is. I'm reporting it.

These findings are no longer surprising. What is shocking is how “respectable” news organizations refuse to cover these stories, in which Hamas & Islamic Jihad admit that journalists, UN staff, teachers & doctors were their own members.
Aviva Klompas@AvivaKlompas

‼️ Palestinian Islamic Jihad has admitted that Fadi al-Wadiya, whom Doctors Without Borders had described as one of its staff in Gaza, was - WAIT FOR IT - the deputy head of Islamic Jihad’s military manufacturing unit

A "doctor" from Gaza who wrote multiple op-eds demonizing Israel for the NY Times is, and you'll never believe this, a Hamas colonel who has been spotted in military uniform. Maybe he just does terrorism on the side?

They’re shutting down Ezra Klein. Ezra Klein??? Ezra says to protestor “turn around/i’m right here/talk to me.” Ezra is really smart (really so), he should know that it isn’t about dialogue. It’s about shutting down anything that doesn’t conform w/the protestors’ ideology.
Jonah Platt@JonahPlatt

The “genocide” libel is patently false, but even if it wasn’t, Ezra Klein, a random Jewish journalist, has literally nothing to do with what happens abroad and is actually very far to the Left on Israel. The mob STILL comes for him. Antizionism is an anti-Jew hate movement, period.
