Here is why the Passover story of Egyptian Exodus is completely made up. Not only is there no evidence for it, but it is chronologically impossible. Not on the scale mentioned in the bible or on any scale at all: 1) Decades of intensive archaeological surveys in the Sinai Peninsula have failed to uncover any remains, such as pottery, encampments, or human waste, that would indicate a population of over two million people spent 40 years wandering the desert. Not one piece of pottery, one hearth, or one Hebrew inscription from that era has been found in the Sinai. 2) Ancient Egypt was a highly literate society with meticulous administrative records. Despite this, no Egyptian text from the Bronze Age mentions a mass slave revolt, the devastating plagues, or the loss of an entire army in the sea. 3) Modern archaeology suggests that the ancient Israelites were actually indigenous to Canaan. They appear to have emerged from local Canaanite populations during the Bronze Age collapse, rather than arriving as a conquering force from outside. 4) The biblical figure of 603,550 men (totaling roughly 2.5 million people including families) is logistically impossible for the time. A line of that many people, walking eight abreast, would have been hundreds of miles long, meaning the front would reach the destination while the back was still in Egypt. 5) The Book of Exodus mentions places like the city of Rameses and the land of Goshen, as well as the use of camels, which were not in existence or common at the time the events were supposed to have occurred. This suggests the story was written centuries later. Archaeology shows that at the time the conquest was supposed to happen, Jericho had no walls and was either a tiny village or completely uninhabited. 6) If 2.5 million people entered a land from Egypt, you would expect to see a sudden, massive shift in technology, diet, or burial customs. Instead, we see a slow, internal evolution. The people who became "Israelites" were likely local Canaanite farmers and nomadic herders who moved into the highlands to escape the collapse of the coastal city-states. 7) The Exodus is said to have took place well before there is evidence of Israelites existing. The bible has it at 1446 BCE. The first mention of Israelites is in 1208 by the Pharaoh Merneptah. He mentions them as a foreign people with no ties to Egypt. 8) The biggest hole in the story is that during the 13th century BCE (the time of Ramesses II), Canaan was an Egyptian province. Egypt had forts, tax collectors, and governors all over the "Promised Land."If the Israelites fled Egypt to go to Canaan, they were essentially "fleeing Egypt to go to Egypt." 9) The story appears to have been made up during the Babylonian Exile in the 6th century BCE. They needed a story to give them hope: a story where their God defeats a superpower Egypt) and leads them back to their homeland. By creating a shared "escape" story, they turned a collection of local Canaanite tribes into a single, unified nation. So this is a beautiful story, but a complete myth. Its greatest value is that it has inspired many to pursue freedom, most famously African Americans who identified deeply with the story.

After defeating Iran 37 times in a row, this brilliant no-strategy war they started has now been downgraded from “regime change” to “Hey! Can anyone find our pilots? Please?🥺” Wow. What incredible progress. Absolute geniuses.

❗️BREAKING: Iran hit an American fighter jet in the south of Iran. According to initial reports, the jet fell between Hengam Island and Qeshm Island and sank into the depths of the waters of the Persian Gulf.

Pezeshkian wrote a 1,000-word open letter to the American people. It is objectively very short and to the point. But I am afraid he is a victim of the Iranian tradition of overestimating American attention spans and cognitive capabilities.

BREAKING: President Trump requested a plan to seize nearly 1,000 lbs of highly enriched uranium from Iran. The U.S. military briefed him on a complex operation involving airlifting excavation equipment, building a runway inside Iran for cargo planes to extract the material, and potentially deploying hundreds of troops. - WaPo

For whoever needs to hear this I'm the only Jewish person to lead a political party - third largest in the country. The Daily Mail have been & always will be my enemy - they historically supported fascists & continue to do so. I'll take no lectures from them on Antisemitism.

Every time my case gets media attention, German authorities impose more repressive measures — not only against me, but against my family. They knowingly put my children’s lives in danger. I am calling on the international community for support — not for me, but for my children. This is now about their lives.
