Please notice how you’ve been force fed outrage about unconfirmed “tens of thousands of children being killed in Gaza” and you’re not force fed outrage about Jewish children being targeted day after day all over the world. It’s deliberate. You’ve been propagandised against Jews and you don’t see it. But we do.

What a reference.

The wokifada drives a Black-owned Ethiopian restaurant in NYC out of business because the owner is Jewish. Black Lives Matter only so long as you’re not Jewish, right?

New York City’s only Ethiopian-Israeli restaurant has closed its doors for regular dining, citing the backlash it faced during the war in Gaza. 🔗 Read the full article here: buff.ly/vmgB0iN

@AdamSchefter so because the former @packers president’s son was represented by a guy who represents John Harbaugh, the packers may move on from their coach? That is a stretch.

After 15 months in Washington, DC, it has been disturbing to register just how many think tank staff, government workers, and supposed community organizations are actually truly pro-Hamas and opposed to calling out the terror group’s deeply entrenched narrative, because they fashion themselves as “pro-Palestine” voices and activists. Indeed, entities across many political spectrums have leaders who see the big picture and register the horrors of Hamas, the group’s horrendous behavior, consequences of October 7, terrible challenges facing the Palestinian national project, and the dogmatic trends of the past two years, while their leftist junior staff who are younger and more “passionate” about “woke” issues and supposedly “human rights” tend to see Hamas as merely a “symptom” rather than a problem. Despite the best of my efforts to engage a wide-ranging audience of young and aspiring foreign policy professionals in Washington, I’ve come to the realization that many have been profoundly and irreversibly damaged by the indoctrination of Ivy League institutions and expensive schools that adopt social programming and predictably one-sided framing of all of the world’s complex issues and conflicts. These individuals have been especially disappointing and often, quite gross and repulsive, when it comes to demonstrating capacity for nuanced thinking that breaks the binary views and narratives associated with many issues, including the Israel and Palestine conflict, particularly the war in Gaza after the October 7 massacre. Anti-Israel sentiments have become the primary lens through which analyses and opinions are constructed and shared. While individuals have a right to hold whatever beliefs they choose, the goals and aspirations of free thinkers and analysts should be the maximal pursuit of information, evidence, hypotheses, theories, diverse perspectives, and de-personalized discourse. Instead, many end up grossly rushing to tell me how I don’t “conform” to other Palestinian views, and how many “pro-Palestine” voices have problems with me. Instead of Washington DC being a vibrant place for policymaking and the exchange of truly original and free ideas, hordes of non-Palestinian “experts”, “analysts”, junior staff, Ivy League ideologues, brainwashed young people, and detached individuals feel the need to police what I have to say relative to their intransigent rubric for how they assess Hamas, Gaza, the war, and associated issues. I share this in the spirit of highlighting yet another dimension of Washington’s problematic ethos and the issues of young staffers running this city. The detachment between policymakers, young professionals, partisan think tankers, social justice warriors, and Ivy League wokesters is part of the long list of issues that sustain the dysfunction and parallel universes one finds in such an important yet impotent town. The so-called “professional and intellectual” class in Washington, particularly the young staffers in think tanks, government, Congress, and nonprofits, is part of a deeply entrenched industrial complex that inhibits truly transformative policymaking, opting instead for cliquey groupthink that creates a useless, self-affirming feedback loop.
