Silence isn’t neutral right now. People across Iran are risking their lives to confront a regime that has ruled through fear, violence, and repression for nearly half a century. Tear gas. Bullets. Water hoses — in a country suffering severe water shortages — and still, the people don’t stop. If you care about LGBTQ rights, women’s rights, religious freedom, ethnic equality, peace in the Middle East, fighting antisemitism, or opposing global terrorism, this is your issue too. Speak up. Don’t look away.

Have you noticed that Jews in Israel or around the world are not celebrating the unfortunate death of Palestinian civilians in Gaza? Unlike the hundreds of thousands of Palestinian supporters cheering on the death of Israelis in cities across the world, we never wanted this.

I know there must be many Palestinians who oppose the Hamas massacre in which 1,300 Israeli Jews were slaughtered. They must think it's awful that babies were burned to death, that grandparents were executed in the street. There must be loads. So many. So where are they?

In 2015 a prominent Republican said this of Trump: "In the 1840’s the 'Know Nothings' emerged as a political movement, scapegoating Irish and German immigrants for the problems of the nation...

No one should have to wait this long to vote....however, BRAVO to these Americans willing to spend their Monday waiting and waiting and waiting to cast their ballots
This is a picture of voter suppression. Why do Americans have to wait in lines this long? This is the line in Suwannee Georgia today to vote.

taking off your protective, CDC-advised mask only to reveal that you are struggling to breathe after prematurely leaving the hospital you were helicoptered to for treatment for a virus that you & your administration downplayed from the very beginning ... to .. own the libs?
Coronavirus in Chief, Trump takes off mask as he returns to WH.

There are left leaning governments with v successful covid responses (Canada, S Korea). Right leaning govts too (Germany, Japan). Those that failed (US, Brazil, Mexico...) rejected science, refused to lead with expertise.

I don’t like these gotcha interviews where they record a person with his full consent, and then they write down and play back his words for people to read and hear.

In classic victim-blaming style, Baroness Tonge - a sitting member of The House of Lords - blames Israel for the massacre of Jews in a synagogue in Pittsburgh. Terror needs enforces, and then there are the enablers.

We grieve for the Americans murdered in Pittsburgh. All of us have to fight the rise of anti-Semitism and hateful rhetoric against those who look, love, or pray differently. And we have to stop making it so easy for those who want to harm the innocent to get their hands on a gun.

Today’s fascist will be tomorrow’s left wing extremist or jihadist. Don’t ignore what this murderer believed. But also don’t ignore that he shares a hatred embedded in other extremist ideologies that span the political spectrum: the oldest hatred.

If you’re blaming one person, one party, one movement for anti-Semitism, you really don’t understand the problem.

Search not for logic and reason in murder of Jews. Whatever the proclaimed reason, it is but an excuse. Jews were persecuted and massacred throughout history for being too rich AND too poor, for being capitalist AND socialist, for being too similar AND too different. #Pittsburg

You find modern anti-Semitism in all walks of life. On the hard-left, the hard-right, ivory towers of universities, sermons of Louis Farrakhan, between the lines of Jeremy Corbyn's "anti-Zionism", Palestinian schoolbooks paid for by the UN, or Linda Sarsour's Women's March. STOP!

I got to meet this amazing, inspiring woman last year in Krakow. A true hero.
A hero died today. You won’t read about it on the news or hear about it at your dinner tables. Her name was Paulina Plaksej, and she, along with her parents, risked their lives to save 18 jews during the Holocaust. Paulina was a Polish Christian. She made god smile. Rest in peace
