🧵Last night, I spoke to four Jewish students from The Cooper Union. Three of them were barricaded inside the library while the pro-Hamas protestors were violently banging on doors. A few take-aways according to student accounts of the incident:

לא לייאוש. אבא שלי היה ילד בן 13 בשואה. רצחו את אבא שלו. רצחו את הילדים בכיתה שלו. הוא תמיד נשא את זה איתו, את מטען הכאב, אבל לא רק אותו. היה בחיים שלו הרבה יותר. הוא היה יהודי שמח. איש שמן ומצחיק, שמעולם לא החמיץ מריבה טובה והאמין שאת רוב הבעיות בעולם אפשר לפתור מעל עוגת קצפת. >

I’ve heard a lot of people complain recently that they can’t criticize Israel without being accused of being an antisemite. In fact, it’s very easy to criticize Israel without being called an antisemite, I do it all the time. Here's a helpful guide: 🔷 If you advocate for an

waiting for the BBC headline - ‘Matthew Perry killed in Israeli strike, Palestinian officials report’ 🙄

You can't make this up. After 1,000 Stanford University pro-Hamas students staged a sit-in on Fri., they circulated a list of demands to the university which included: - 24/7 trauma counseling for Palestinian students - Full RT fare paid by University for students to visit family & friends

Thank you Professor Franke for creating a comprehensive list of Columbia and Barnard faculty members siding with Hamas against Israel. You have saved the clear-thinking world endless hours of trying to separate the tone-deaf, morally bankrupt and intellectually stunted Columbia

Oh you like Hamas? Siding with Hamas isn’t easy when you know what they actually stand for. Well done: FactsForPeace on IG

dear world: instead of blaming Israel for what happened when they eliminated Hamas terrorists at Jabalia, blame Hamas terrorists for hiding there & building tunnels used for terror under it. whether you like it or not, Hamas’s presence there made it a legitimate military target.

From the river to the sea refers to the full erasure of the Jewish state, from Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea. It is also the battle cry of Hamas, a savage terrorist group that beheads babies and rapes women. You echo terrorists.

When Egypt agreed to accept wounded Palestinians for treatment, Hamas provided a list of names of people to evacuate. The list was vetted by Egypt and the United States, which found that a third of the names were of Hamas terrorists.

‘You’re so much more articulate than I expected!’ is a compliment meant to tell someone how eloquent they are, not a backhanded insult about how dumb I expected them to be based on their race / gender / etc 🙄do you not realize how dumb this sounds? Drop the dog whistling.

“I don’t want to be on the internet.” Oops.

Yes of course, and “sieg heil” is just a poetic way of saying hello.

Our paramedics’ bodies were found with their medical gloves still on, murdered by Hamas in the midst of treating the wounded. Our ambulance drivers were executed in cold blood while sitting in the drivers’ seats.

"Don't shoot! Don't shoot! We're Israelis!" This is the heroic of story of a group of Israeli-arabs who risked their lives to save Aya and 30-40 other innocents on October 7th. There are no words to express our gratitude to these angels.

I can confirm that a Jewish man died of a head injury sustained during an altercation at a pro-Palestinian protest in Thousand Oaks yesterday. More details to come as I can confirm them.

Israel is not a perfect country. We are struggling with a never-ending conflict, the folly of our government at times, and racism. But this is true for most countries. It's also a vibrant democracy. And by vibrant, I mean this: Dr. Fares Darawshe from Shiba Hospital, an Israeli

I don't think non-Jews realize how much and how permanently the global response since October 7th has changed us.

IT'S TIME FOR ALL OF US TO RAISE OUR VOICES! The School of Social Work at @Colubmia University CANNOT allow a "teach-in" that sees rape as a "counteroffensive" and calls murder and kidnap of children "revolutionary violence"! PLEASE RETWEET THIS WITH YOUR OWN CALL TO Columbia University
