MSNBC guest Ian Bremmer on Katy Tur suggests that European countries should ban #Israel from Eurovision, make it difficult for Israelis to travel to Europe, and engage in similar practices to isolate the #Jewish state. His idea is that doing so will turn voters against Netanyahu, thereby at last breaking the far-right stranglehold on government power.

I humbly suggest that Mr. Bremmer doesn't know shit about Israel or Israelis. If you want to push voters straight into the arms of the right wing, make them feel like the world is against them.

If you want those voters to abandon the Bibi and his ilk, stop rewarding Hamas for terrorism. Make it clear that Europe stands behind a two-state solution but only after Hamas capitulates and the #hostages have been freed, and only after Israel's government puts meaningful effort into building a foundation upon which a two-state solution could be implemented. Offer Pal recognition as an ex post reward for peace, not an ex ante capitulation to terror.


Never change, Europe. Never change. 😘🤌

"Around 15% of #Italians consider physical attacks on #Jewish people "entirely or fairly justifiable", according to a #survey published on Tuesday, as protests against #Israel's offensive in #Gaza continue across the country.

Some 18% of those interviewed also believe #antisemitic graffiti on walls and other public spaces is legitimate, according to the survey, conducted on September 24-26 by the pollster SWG among a national sample of 800 adults."

To my #Jewish friends, I am so angry and sad to hear that your community has been attacked in #Manchester. May the victims rest in peace. Anti-Semitic attacks are disgustingly on the rise across the world. We must never tolerate attacks on entire communities just because of who the people are.


Oh... cool cool cool 👀

"The director of a new organization founded to advance the priorities of #US Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. #Kennedy Jr. has extensively promoted the “#Protocols of the Elders of Zion,” a famous #antisemitic forgery.

Leland Lehrman, who last month was named executive director of the #MAHAInstitute, also believes #Israel may have been behind the 9/11 terror attacks, and has inveighed against “high-level #Jewish Illuminists, or Lucifer worshipers.”

A lot of Jewish people hid their religion & their ethnicity after coming to the U.S. #AntiSemitism was not only in Germany, it was all over.

When you watch a #Superman movie or read the comics, you see a character created by two Jewish boys about a man from another world, with a secret identity, who puts on glasses and a suit to blend into the world around him.

That's who Superman is. He's the first-generation immigrant who was once called Kal-El, and is now Clark Kent.

But here's the important part:
NO ONE KNOWS his true identity.

He is a metaphor for so many first-generation Jewish people in the late 1800s/early 1900s, who hid their #Jewish #ancestry and changed their names to blend in.

Do you have Jewish ancestors? Look at your tree. Find the "Russian,” "Polish," “Ukrainian,” and "Czech" immigrants. Your Jewish ancestor probably comes from there. Research terms like "Shtetle" and "Pogroms."

Leonard Nimoy at a #NOW rally in 1989. His sweater reads "PRO-CHILD, PRO-FAMILY, #PROCHOICE". His sash reads "HONORED GUEST". His pin reads "HONORARY SISTER".

#LeonardNimoy was #Jewish and spoke fluent Yiddish. His parents were first-generation #Ukrainian Jewish #immigrants who fled the Soviet Union and he was born in 1931 in Boston. Jewish activists have always been at the core of support for #abortion rights.
