Nothing has prepared me for the scale of antisemitism Hamas starting this war has unleashed. It takes my breath away. Still finding my bearings in a world irreparably changed, but the one thing is certain. I stand with my Jewish friends even more firmly now.

Survivors walked free through the city gates for the first time in 5 years. He thought their skeletal bodies might stir sympathy among the townspeople. Instead, as he passed a group of women he heard one shout “The vermin are multiplying again” A welcome that denied his humanity

The Brighton pro-Pals just did an illegal march and went past our 7/10 memorial. Nasty chants and carrying signs that support terrorists. This is the PFLP logo who murdered and kidnapped ppl. These ghouls spit on the memory of the dead and support their killers. I feel sick.

❗️Please be aware❗️ Far-right groups are using the Israeli flag to exploit rising tensions around migrant hotels in Leeds and across the UK. This is a blatant misuse of Jewish identity, heritage, and faith. Jewish communities reject this appropriation. Shalom.

So tell your mates in Hamas to surrender and return the hostages.

Only Israel can let thousands of trucks of aid into Gaza, offer the UN multiple routes and an armed escort for those trucks, and PUBLICLY URGE THE UN TO DISTRIBUTE THE AID... and still get accused of trying to starve people. The UN should stop starving people.

Recognising a Palestinian State is putting the cart before the horse and the release of the hostages is what the first step should be. There is suffering on all sides. Thanks to @StephenNolan for letting me tell Tsachi’s story and keep the 50 hostages present in the public eye.

Must-read. Emily Damari’s hostage testimony is horrifying.

Hey Husam... Sorry for your loss. Have a question though. Is this him celebrating October 7 with a post using rocket emojis? Asking for a friend. x.com/hzomlot/status…

Follow the money.

Spain giving Ireland a run for its money in the ‘most antisemitic European nation’ category. After 50 French Jewish children were thrown off a Vueling plane because one of them said a Hebrew word, the Spanish Minister referred to them as Israeli brats (other passengers said they…

Why do so many commentators fail to address the role of Hamas in the torment of Gaza? Questions are rightly being asked of Israel over aid to Gaza, but we must also look at the role Hamas is playing in food shortages. - NEW from LAAS Director, Alex Hearn express.co.uk/comment/expres…

Indeed, the @UN sitting on hundreds of trucks of aid IN GAZA is a moral crisis. Past time for @antonioguterres to demand his team immediately deliver food and medicine it’s holding back to the people of Gaza. Shameful.

Hamas thugs think they have international support, and therefore hardened their demands against Israel. Hamas doesn’t care about suffering civilians or about ending the war. But Hamas has a whole arsenal of useful idiots working for them.

This is a problematic story for the media so it will be suppressed. I doubt even many of the journalists that came will report on it, because it doesn’t reflect badly on Israel (their priority) but it does reflect badly on the U.N.

The Ayatollahs of Iran strongly suspect that Israel’s strategic aim was to end the Gaza conflict so it could shift its full focus to delivering a crushing blow to Iran itself. To delay that, Iran did everything in its power to prevent any agreement - any ceasefire - between…

The Spanish Transportation Minister giving the game away here when he refers to "Israeli youngsters". They weren't Israeli. They were French Jewish teenagers. But saying you've mistreated Jews doesn't play so well. So hey presto! They're magically transformed into "Israelis".

Today, the IDF invited dozens of international journalists to the Kerem Shalom crossing inside Gaza, to see for themselves. Hundreds of aid trucks have entered Gaza with Israel’s approval, but the supplies are standing idle, undelivered. The reason? The UN refuses to distribute…

I interviewed @GovMikeHuckabee and asked him what is really happening with humanitarian aid in Gaza. “There are clearly people who need food and medicine. That’s not a doubt. But the biggest reason that people are not getting the food and medicine they need is that Hamas is…

The suffering in Gaza is horrendous. Israel must do whatever possible to enable aid sitting in trucks to get to people. But the international community looks deranged on Hamas - terrorists who pump out disinformation and actively withhold food from Palestinians as propaganda.
