Break bread at a Sedar? Pretty sure that wasn’t meant literally (IYKYK) and pretty sure that really wasn’t intended for us. But when you view us as caricatures and actually know nothing about us, I guess it sounds good to the intended audience.

How a United Nations study shatters the Gaza starvation narrative - The Jewish Chronicle
The UNICEF-led survey found child malnutrition in Gaza to be exceptionally low by regional and even Western standards. The findings also undermine the key argument used to justify last year’s famine...

OK, this is a particular lane of slopulism that I’m passionate about, and it’s actually really dumb and bad and doesn’t understand how groceries work at all.
Mayor Mamdani: Since 2019, food prices have soared at grocery stores around the country by roughly 30%. Wages have not kept up. Today, I am proud to announce a collection of essential staples that will be predictably 30% cheaper at all five of our city-run grocery stores.
🧵 People have rightfully pointed out that this post by Palestinian-American writer Susan Abulhawa is just the antisemitic "Stab-In-The-Back” myth with an anti-Zionist paint job on it. But there’s a little more to it.
Imagine if Stevens owned expensive rental property in Tel Aviv? This is just too good. Abdul is wealthier than Stevens and does business in a country known for its human rights atrocities but Stevens is the corporate genocider.
Sounds like those issues are Hollywood’s Achilles heal. 😏
While we are in this Greek Mythology moment, may I remind you that Emma Thompson is adapting Pat Barker’s take on The Iliad, and she’s struggled to get it made bc the focus on what acts of war against women and survival thereafter actually look like (the core of Barker’s narrative) is too intense.
Oh. www.timesofisrael.com/gaza-death-n...
Gaza death notices show some so-called health workers were operating for terror groups
Times of Israel's review of Hamas and Islamic Jihad announcements finds that at least 18 of those identified as doctors, nurses and hospital employees in Gaza were also combatants

It’s always fascinating when gentiles take it upon themselves to declare what is and isn’t antisemitic, rather than ask people who are actually familiar with how they have spent 2000 years being subject to the many ways it has been used to caricature, diminish, libel and cause violence to Jews.
I wouldn’t call this antisemitic - AIPAC is bad, it is very active in US elections, it often utilizes shady tactics. But it’s part of what I would say is growing gray-area rhetoric in US politics, where the focus on AIPAC/Israel feels disproportionate and the power it holds is exaggerated.
The fact that a joint technology program for missile defense, cyber, and AI, is being portrayed as “merging militaries” by so many accounts, and often with similar responses of uncritical outrage shows both the dangers of social media and how primed people are to believe libels based on the target.
I see 216 traitors (that voted for this "merger") who should be charged with sedition and treason.
The only reason Mamdani is making the statement at all is because he made a provocative and yet deeply unserious campaign promise to arrest Netanyahu if Bibi set foot in New York and is now having to address why exactly he's not gonna do it ahead of Bibi setting foot in New York.
1. Plant drugs on a foreign head of state with diplomatic immunity 2. ??? 3. Profit! Deeply unserious indeed.
Everyone involved is deeply unserious
This is The Iranian American Jewish foundation statement ( my friend is the president)
What are we mourning, Zohran? What are we fasting about? Go on, tell us. We know you know.
Wishing a peaceful Tisha B’Av to Jewish New Yorkers across the five boroughs. From sundown tonight until tomorrow, mourners will pause and reflect on the history and resiliency of the Jewish people. May all observing have a safe and meaningful fast.
The level of absolute brainrot is truly beyond comprehension. Words simply have no meaning for people like this.
Just a lie. A defense tech agreement for various aspects of defense technologies is not “merging parts of our military with” anything or anyone. And I refuse to believe she doesn’t know it’s false and she’s spreading a lie.
Tomorrow, the House will vote on the NDAA, which includes a provision to merge parts of our military with the IDF. This amendment is an existential threat to American sovereignty and democracy. Every member of Congress must vote NO.

The DSA Is a Parasite
The left-wing faction is hijacking the Democratic Party.

“Democrats appear slow to recognize that ideologues on the left are attempting a hostile takeover of the party,” James Kirchick writes. In looking for a way to reclaim control, he argues, they could find inspiration in British history:
For the last time “Stay out of Black peoples face screaming AIPAC” AIPAC IS A MANUFACTURED BOOGEYMAN TO SCAPEGOAT JEWISH PEOPLE IN THE US.
Setting aside the well known history of lists of Jews not working out well for us, for anyone that knows Jewish history, the absolute hilarity of Italians suggesting Jews are engaging in “Neo-colonization in Italy” is some next level absurdity. 🧵
"The Google form that was circulated - before its removal - read: "This form is intended to record cases of Zionist tourism, property purchases, and, more generally, Zionist neo-colonization in Italy."
This should be disqualifying, not only for the substance, but because it proves an irredeemable level of stupidity.
I would simply not say this to a news agency wtf
Meanwhile, new Hamas boss gets to continue living his post 5* Doha hotel Because no one will demand Qatar hand this fucker over to the Israelis.
