@IdoHalbany ✋

Friends of Israel? Raise your hand ✋ I invite you all to follow one another - we're stronger together!

Let’s just clarify some terminology as it pertains to our current situation. When people say “Zionists”, what they really mean is “Jews”, whether they admit it or not. When people say “Pro Palestinian”, what they really mean is “Anti Jewish”, whether they admit it or not. When people say “Resistance”, what they really mean is “Violence and murder”, whether they admit it or not. When people say “Globalize the Intifada”, what they really mean is “Kill the Jews, every last one of them. And then do the same in all western countries”, whether they admit it or not. When people say “Genocide”, what they really mean is “They started a war and are now losing that war”, whether they admit it or not. When people say “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free”, what they really mean is “Annihilate the Jews”, whether they admit it or not. When people say “Free free Palestine”, what they really mean is “Let’s throw out an empty slogan to the get the mob riled up and harass and assault any Jew we see”, whether they admit it or not. When people say “The Zionist entity”, what they really mean is “The Jews, unlike Christians and Muslims, don’t deserve a state and should go back to the places in which they were slaughtered at scale”, whether they admit it or not. And finally, When people say “Occupation, Apartheid or oppression, ”, what they really mean is “I know close to zero about the Middle East and am using the conflict as an excuse to put my hatred of Jews on full display without coming off as a clear antisemite”, whether they admit it or not. Thanks for coming to my TED talk, hope you enjoyed. PS: The “Pro Palestinian” aka anti Jewish crowd are some of the most mentally unhinged human beings I’ve ever encountered and their hatred and poison does absolutely zero to advance their cause. If anything, it takes any legitimacy it might have had and immediately removes it. Exhibit A:

Legitimizing violence against Israel by the name of “occupation” or call it (Palestinian failure) will legitimize violence against the rest of the world. It will unleash a worldwide Islamic bloodlust. The war in Gaza was inevitable, and removing Hamas terrorists from power has been the only solution to prevent a future Gaza tragedy. A ceasefire that keeps Hamas in power would legitimize the use of human shields in future wars. A ceasefire that serves the perpetrators who have been feeding on children’s blood is not a righteous demand it is an emotional demand with deadly future consequences. Having compassion towards children and civilian casualties doesn’t mean abandoning our responsibility to eradicate the root cause of Islamic violence. No one in his right mind in Israel wanted this war and the political and economic consequences. Sacrificing civilians has been a “Palestinian” strategy to delegitimize Israel and spread hatred against the Jewish people. Individuals with the correct perception should condemn the “Palestinian” brutal culture that is willing to sacrifice civilians for political and economical gain. While Israel should be praised for sacrificing its economy and global status to end the evil “Palestinian” practice of sacrificing children. The west must understand the cultural differences in this morally non-equivalent confrontation. One society is fighting for life the other is fighting for the afterlife.

@verysambrown Congratulations 👏👏xx

Try as I might I cannot find a single news outlet outside of Israel covering the Hezbollah attacks and subsequent fires across a huge swathe of northern Israel. Just endless articles about Gaza and Netanyahu. CNN, BBC, Sky, Reuters etc have zero interest when Israel is attacked but you can be sure they’ll be right on it when Israel responds 🙄

Did you participate in the campaign “All eyes on Rafah”? Now let's see if you can put your eyes on northern Israel!

Yahel Sharabi, a 13-year-old girl with her whole life ahead, was brutally murdered along with her family by Hamas on October 7th. Their only sin was being Jewish.

I am a Palestinian from the West Bank. I grew up not only hating Israel but also working towards the day I would become a weapon forged against her. My hatred was for Jews, as is with most Palestinians. Don’t let anyone fool you when they lie & say, “It’s about Zionism.” It has always been & will forever be hatred of the Jews. However, remember this, Just like myself & few others have been spared from this evil hatred & have come to love Jews for the wonder they are, others can be saved too. Remember While the heart still beats, there’s hope.

So powerful: Having cancelled the Pride Parade because of the hostage crisis, @TelAviv is putting up pride flags with an enlarged yellow stripe, to honor the 125 hostages still trapped in Gaza. 🎗️🏳️‍🌈

An incredible letter written by a non-Jewish Scottish professor to his students who voted to boycott Israel It's a response from Dr. Denis MacEoin to the motion put forward by The Edinburgh Student's Association to boycott all things Israeli, in which they claim Israel is under an apartheid regime. Denis is an expert in Middle Eastern affairs and was a senior editor of the Middle East Quarterly. Here's his letter to the students. TO: The Committee Edinburgh University Student Association. May I be permitted to say a few words to members of the EUSA? I am an Edinburgh graduate (MA 1975) who studied Persian, Arabic and Islamic History in Buccleuch Place under William Montgomery Watt and Laurence Elwell Sutton, two of Britain 's great Middle East experts in their day. I later went on to do a PhD at Cambridge and to teach Arabic and Islamic Studies at Newcastle University . Naturally, I am the author of several books and hundreds of articles in this field. I say all that to show that I am well informed in Middle Eastern affairs and that, for that reason, I am shocked and disheartened by the EUSA motion and vote. I am shocked for a simple reason: there is not and has never been a system of apartheid in Israel . That is not my opinion, that is fact that can be tested against reality by any Edinburgh student, should he or she choose to visit Israel to see for themselves. Let me spell this out, since I have the impression that those members of EUSA who voted for this motion are absolutely clueless in matters concerning Israel, and that they are, in all likelihood, the victims of extremely biased propaganda coming from the anti-Israel lobby. Being anti-Israel is not in itself objectionable. But I'm not talking about ordinary criticism of Israel . I'm speaking of a hatred that permits itself no boundaries in the lies and myths it pours out. Thus, Israel is repeatedly referred to as a "Nazi" state. In what sense is this true, even as a metaphor? Where are the Israeli concentration camps? The einzatsgruppen? The SS? The Nuremberg Laws? The Final Solution? None of these things nor anything remotely resembling them exists in Israel , precisely because the Jews, more than anyone on earth, understand what Nazism stood for. It is claimed that there has been an Israeli Holocaust in Gaza (or elsewhere). Where? When? No honest historian would treat that claim with anything but the contempt it deserves. But calling Jews Nazis and saying they have committed a Holocaust is as basic a way to subvert historical fact as anything I can think of. Likewise apartheid. For apartheid to exist, there would have to be a situation that closely resembled how things were in South Africa under the apartheid regime. Unfortunately for those who believe this, a weekend in any part of Israel would be enough to show how ridiculous the claim is. That a body of university students actually fell for this and voted on it is a sad comment on the state of modern education. The most obvious focus for apartheid would be the country's 20% Arab population. Under Israeli law, Arab Israelis have exactly the same rights as Jews or anyone else; Muslims have the same rights as Jews or Christians; Baha'is, severely persecuted in Iran, flourish in Israel, where they have their world center; Ahmadi Muslims, severely persecuted in Pakistan and elsewhere, are kept safe by Israel; the holy places of all religions are protected under a specific Israeli law. Arabs form 20% of the university population (an exact echo of their percentage in the general population). In Iran , the Bahai's (the largest religious minority) are forbidden to study in any university or to run their own universities: why aren't your members boycotting Iran ? Arabs in Israel can go anywhere they want, unlike blacks in apartheid South Africa . They use public transport, they eat in restaurants, they go to swimming pools, they use libraries, they go to cinemas alongside Jews - something no blacks were able to do in South Africa . Israeli hospitals not only treat Jews and Arabs, they also treat Palestinians from Gaza or the West Bank. On the same wards, in the same operating theatres. In Israel , women have the same rights as men: there is no gender apartheid. Gay men and women face no restrictions, and Palestinian gays often escape into Israel, knowing they may be killed at home. It seems bizarre to me that LGBT groups call for a boycott of Israel and say nothing about countries like Iran , where gay men are hanged or stoned to death. That illustrates a mindset that beggars belief. Intelligent students thinking it's better to be silent about regimes that kill gay people, but good to condemn the only country in the Middle East that rescues and protects gay people. Is that supposed to be a sick joke? University is supposed to be about learning to use your brain, to think rationally, to examine evidence, to reach conclusions based on solid evidence, to compare sources, to weigh up one view against one or more others. If the best Edinburgh can now produce are students who have no idea how to do any of these things, then the future is bleak. I do not object to well-documented criticism of Israel . I do object when supposedly intelligent people single the Jewish state out above states that are horrific in their treatment of their populations. We are going through the biggest upheaval in the Middle East since the 7th and 8th centuries, and it's clear that Arabs and Iranians are rebelling against terrifying regimes that fight back by killing their own citizens. Israeli citizens, Jews and Arabs alike, do not rebel (though they are free to protest). Yet Edinburgh students mount no demonstrations and call for no boycotts against Libya , Bahrain , Saudi Arabia , Yemen , and Iran . They prefer to make false accusations against one of the world's freest countries, the only country in the Middle East that has taken in Darfur refugees, the only country in the Middle East that gives refuge to gay men and women, the only country in the Middle East that protects the Bahai's.... Need I go on? The imbalance is perceptible, and it sheds no credit on anyone who voted for this boycott. I ask you to show some common sense. Get information from the Israeli embassy. Ask for some speakers. Listen to more than one side. Do not make your minds up until you have given a fair hearing to both parties. You have a duty to your students, and that is to protect them from one-sided argument. They are not at university to be propagandized. And they are certainly not there to be tricked into anti-Semitism by punishing one country among all the countries of the world, which happens to be the only Jewish state. If there had been a single Jewish state in the 1930's (which, sadly, there was not), don't you think Adolf Hitler would have decided to boycott it? Your generation has a duty to ensure that the perennial racism of anti-Semitism never sets down roots among you. Today, however, there are clear signs that it has done so and is putting down more. You have a chance to avert a very great evil, simply by using reason and a sense of fair play. Please tell me that this makes sense. I have given you some of the evidence. It's up to you to find out more. Yours sincerely, Denis MacEoin

Weird huh?

Where were your eyes on October 7?

These posts piss so many people off because they contradict their false narrative and prove them wrong. Israel? Apartheid? Really? Join me for lunch any day in any mall in Israel, any store, any food court. Today, I wanted some chicken nuggets (A man’s gotta have his chicken nuggets!) so I went to the food court and this is what I saw. Endless Muslims in full Muslim garb. No one bothers them. In fact, half the workers in the restaurants are Muslim. Now, tell me, what would happen if I’d walk into a shopping center in Ramallah or Gaza? Yea, exactly, I wouldn’t leave alive. Either Israel is the worst country at apartheid in history or it’s yet another antisemitic blood libel.

Watch this timelapse of Rafah carefully and you might notice something that almost nobody, even Middle East experts like Gary Lineker, never knew about. Rafah straddled the border with Egypt. There was an Egyptian Rafah and a Gazan Rafah. I say "was" because, between 2015 and 2020 Egypt systematically and totally razed its half of Gaza, destroyed over 8,000 buildings, homes, shops, mosques, shut down all its farms, and sealed what had once been a thriving town behind fences. But Jews—I mean Zionists—weren't doing it, so nobody cared. Nobody protested in European capitals, as Egypt (which has now ironically joined in the ICC claim for Israel's much less damaging, and much more justified, attack on Gazan Rafah) committed this crime against humanity. Not one celebrity shed one measly tear for Egyptian Rafah. Why?

תכירו את סיפורה של סמ"ר שיראל חיים פור ז"ל. שיראל הייתה בחורה מלאת שמחת חיים שאהבה לטוס ולטייל בעולם, ללמוד שפות חדשות, לבלות ופשוט ליהנות מהחיים. שיראל שירתה כסמלת מבצעים במוצב נחל עוז, וראתה את תפקידה כשליחות עליונה. במסגרת תפקידה, ניהלה שיראל את החמ״ל, החיילים והמפקדים בצורה מקצועית ואחראית מתוך דבקות במטרה ואפילו קיבלה אות הצטיינות מח״ט. שבת השביעי באוקטובר הייתה אמורה להיות השבת האחרונה שלה לפני השחרור מהצבא. כשהחלה מתקפת הטרור של מחבלי חמאס בישראל שיראל רצה עם פיג׳מה וכפכפים תחת אש פצמ״רים לחמ"ל כדי לתפעל את האירוע, היא ניהלה אותו בגבורה ובקור רוח תוך כדי שהיא מוציאה דיווחים, מכווינה כוחות לעבר הישובים הסמוכים ומרגיעה את כלל חברותיה בחמ״ל. אך כשהמחבלים כבר חדרו למוצב והגיעו לחמ"ל לא נשאר לה ולשאר מה לעשות. שיראל נפלה שם אחרי שהספיקה בזכות הדיווחים שלה בזמן אמת להציל חיים של רבים אחרים. כל חייה הייתה חושבת על האחר לפני שהיא חושבת על עצמה, וכך עשתה עד הרגע האחרון שלה… יהי זכרה ברוך, גיבורת ישראל🇮🇱🕯️ נזכור אותה תמיד. שנהיה ראויים...

חלל צה"ל רביעי מהאירוע הקשה אתמול בכרם שלום- סמל מיכאל רוזל, בן 18 מראשון לציון, לוחם בחטיבת הנח"ל. כמה כאב, איזה אובדן ענק! יהי זכרו ברוך, גיבור🕯🇮🇱
