I have serious problems with the term “settler violence.” It is a generalization that demonizes a community of 500,000 people - almost all of them are good, law-abiding citizens. But we cannot let that defense blind us. What has been happening in the West Bank - like the attacks by Jewish extremists in some 20 locations last night - is an abomination. These actions are anti-Jewish, they are the antithesis of what it means to be Israeli, and they must be stopped with the most aggressive steps law enforcement has at its disposal. Beyond the moral rot, this is a strategic liability. Israel is in a war against Iran and we have a rare moment to unite a global coalition from the US to Europe to the Gulf, but that support is undermined when these attacks occur. @netanyahu knows this and for that reason he went to the IDF Central Command on Friday to try and stop the violence in the middle of a war that needs to be his sole focus. What these attackers are doing is not just criminal; it is a threat to our national security. We cannot defeat our enemies abroad while a violent fringe undermines our legitimacy from within.
Imagine how fucked up you've got to be to set an ambulance on fire.
Midwesterners are nice. Southerners are polite and may or may not be nice. Many of the most polite southerners I know are decidedly not nice.
This is what remains of a Kindergarten in Rishon LeZion are an Iranian ballistic missile attack today. Expect absolutely no media coverage whatsoever - and no angry condemnations from "human rights groups".
A 30-year-old in 1980 owned a house like this working at the local factory. Married six years with three kids. Weekends meant Little League games. Both sets of grandparents lived within five miles. The kids would attend the same high school he did and grow up with the children of his own friends. This is a dying concept
6 weeks from today we find out if we get affordable groceries or WW3

What comes to mind when you see this steak..
We show ID to buy beer, board a plane, or buy a gun. Why NOT for voting? Tell Congress to pass the SAVE AMERICA Act! 🇺🇸
