40-60 million #Kurds are denied a state of their own & periodically targeted for persecution, even genocide. Yet: NO street protests NO campus encampments NO UN resolutions NO actions by govts. of S. Africa, Ireland, Spain... NO initiatives by "The Squad" in Congress WHY?

As #Passover approaches, we should be telling the miraculous stories of the modern-day Exodus of Jews from the USSR & Ethiopia...in addition to the ancient & miraculous story of the Exodus from Egypt. My thoughts shared courtesy of ⁦JBS⁩. youtu.be/4nKeIYYFsPY

There's talk in Washington about a possible sale of F-35s to Turkey. The answer should be NO. Putting advanced fighter jets in the hands of Erdogan's Turkey would be incredibly dangerous & destabilizing. Why strengthen an aggressor, neighborhood bully & neo-imperialist nation?

As US & Iran start talks on Iran's nuclear program, let's recall: Iran was playing chess long before most others even learned to play checkers. With skill & patience, Iran will try to lie, cheat & deceive to get its way. May the US get it right! The stakes couldn't be higher.

Start of Passover is a reminder of start of 1943 Warsaw Ghetto Uprising. Against all the odds, poorly armed, half-starved & vastly outnumbered Jews fought the German army. Held them off for weeks while inflicting major damage. Here’s to their amazing bravery & sacred memory.

The Jewish exodus from Egypt >3000 yrs ago didn't head for Brooklyn, Bialystok or Benghazi. It ended up in what we know today as Israel, the land tied to the Jews since time immemorial. And we're supposed to take seriously the no-nothings who rant about "settler colonialism"?!?

Gov. Josh Shapiro: "If he [the arsonist] was trying to terrorize our family, friends or the Jewish community who joined us for a Passover Seder in that room last night--hear me--no one will deter me or my family or any Pennsylvanian from celebrating their faith openly & proudly."

Where are all the UN resolutions for the #Kurds? Where are all the college encampments for the Kurds? Where are all the street protests for the Kurds? There are 40-60 million Kurds in M. East. They have a proud culture, long history, distinct identity. But no country. WHY?

Why are Palestinians the only group on Planet Earth classified as "refugees" in perpetuity? Why are they the only "refugees" anywhere for whom resettlement deliberately isn't an option? Why are 850,000 Jews who had to flee Arab lands totally forgotten, as if they never existed?

In 1971, I went to my 1st Orthodox #Easter service. It was in communist Romania. As a Jew, I wanted to show solidarity with people of faith living under oppression. 54 years later, communism is dead in Central Europe. Faith endures. Best wishes to everyone celebrating Easter.

Why does USA, under both Republicans & Democrats, continue to appease, coddle & indulge Erdogan's Turkey? How much longer can USA downplay Turkey's occupation of foreign lands, links to Muslim Brotherhood, threats to democracy, neo-Ottoman aims? High time to get real w/ Turkey!
