If your first instinct is to recoil at the fact that the synagogue's name contains the word "Israel", fuck you.

If your first instinct is to say "we should stop funding israel", fuck you.

If your first instinct is to say "but Gaza is worse", fuck you.

you are presented with a take that is so outrageously bad. you see the opportunity to educate someone. what source will you use?

an article that is easy to read and understand

a primary source

a screenshot of a screenshot of a social media post

nothing

if you chose 1, you are lying because the source you used is an article from a jewish news site or written by a jew

if you chose 2, you are lying because your source is outdated and might have been fabricated to change history

if you chose 3, you are lying because this is only a good source when you cannot prove otherwise, like in the instance of the bad take at the start of this that you are debating

No you don't

No you don't

No you don't

If you did, you would condemn Hamas for murdering and kidnapping Israeli children on Oct 7. You would condemn Hamas for starting a war, for not building bomb shelters, or letting their children hide in their terror tunnels from bombs. You would condemn Hamas for using their children as human shields and enlisting them as child soldiers. You would condemn Hamas for decades of indoctrination

If you cared about children, you would've advocated for so many children before oct 7. Where were your 100k protests for Ukrainian children, who are still being killed or held hostage in Russia where they are placed in russian families, have their names changed and are put into indoctrination programs that deny the existence of the ukrainian nationality? Where is your advocacy for children in Sudan, in Yemen, in Syria, in Iraq, where 9 yo girls are being married off, in Afghanistan, in Chechnya?

If you cared about children you would not harass and attack jewish children all over the west. You would be horrified by the gang rape of a 12 yo girl in France "for Palestine". You would be horrified at the news that jewish children are being chased by mobs with sticks yelling about how they are going to kill them. You would call your own "movement" out

The irony ofc is that he's still a zionist and they still tokenize his criticism

she told me she didn’t know everything yet, told me not to worry, and told me to go to bed. i woke up and saw that there was an attack at a music festival in israel. i thought that this would be resolved in a couple of days.

i don’t mean to take away from the trauma israelis faced on 10/7, but i think there’s a different kind of grief as a diaspora jew knowing that you’re safe in bed across the ocean while your family in israel was hiding or killed. you were safe because you weren’t in israel but people your own age who were murdered in cold blood weren’t as lucky. it’s not survivor’s guilt, exactly, but it feels similar.

jews are small group. every israeli i know either knew someone who was murdered on 10/7 or knows someone who knew someone.

when one of us is murdered, we all collectively grieve. we’ve been grieving for two years and i’m tries.

i’m sad, today. i’m sad and i’m mad and i’m hurt and i’m angry. i’m sad that the hostages have spent two years, not knowing when they can come home. i’m hurt that the world is either turning a blind eye or cheering. i’m mad at everything hamas has done for the last several decades.

i watched the videos for the first time and i’m sad and hurt all over again. hamas is evil. there is no humanity in them. gallant was right: they’re animals. same goes for every single “civilian” that participated in the 10/7 attacks. same goes for the “civilians” that turned over hostages who tried to escape back to hamas.
