the sickening and terrifying attempted murder of Palestinian toddler in Texas should have us all on guard together against violence and dehumanization and the larger dynamics behind it

i saw the story breaking here at Twitter, open to the allegation and waiting for the confirmation that was surely to come; it all came together when it became clear that Sdei Teiman was under Ben-Gvir's control

your own research is supported by data showing that normie settlers and soft-religious Israelis are super-rightwing politically

Israeli soldiers ran an Israeli flag up the Dome of the Rock in 1967. Moshe Dayan ordered it taken down immediately. Because he understood how incendiary the act was. Today, religious fanatics dominate the State of Israel

A generation of Palestinians see the Menorah as a symbol of occupation and oppression. It took me long years to realize that Jewish symbols used by the state of Israel represent more than my oppressor, for my Jewish friends also use them. However, many won't see this!

As far as the shooter knew, these weren't Israeli diplomatic staffers; they were just 2 Jews leaving a Jewish cultural center

Attacks on diplomats anywhere and everywhere is especially dastardly and cowardly.

Road to hell paved with good intentions. Mamdani is not an anti-Semite; that's more than clear. But in over his head. He's anti-Zionist and anti-Israel and has no clue how these feed into dangerous anti-Semitic echo chambers. His Intifada-Holocaust conflation is a whopper

An emotional @ZohranKMamdani addressing antisemitism accusations in wake of @HolocaustMuseum response to his controversial comments explaining what “Globalize the intifada” means—which is largely associated w stoking violence against Jews. Says he’s also been subject to hate.

prediction: Zionists and other Jews acting in good faith are not going to have a problem with sanctions on Ben-Gvir, Smotrich, and illegal settlements in occupied West Bank
