The mass starvation & killing of Palestinians in Gaza at the hands of the Israeli gov’t is a chillul hashem, a desecration of God.

Jewish leaders who criticized Zohran Mamdani for three words he doesn’t use should raise their voices loudly here as well.

Gaza is starving. Where are the American Jewish leaders?
A fear of being labelled antisemitic still deters American Jews and Jewish institutions from taking a position that is morally correct.

NEW: Judge Farbiarz, now in writing, orders the release of Mahmoud Khalil on bail TODAY.

AND—happy surprise—he reconsiders and adds a line forbidding electronic monitoring, as Judge Sessions did for Rümeysa Öztürk. He also forbids monetary bond due today. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

CLARIFICATION :

The Trevor Project's hotline will still be live. But basically this means LGBTQ people can no longer be connected to it through the US national 988 suicide prevention hotline.

They will need to be contacted DIRECTLY

So spread this around

They can be texted. They can be called.

“Breaking the Silence said commanders were aware of the use of human shields and tolerated it, with some giving orders to do so. Some said it was referred to as the “mosquito protocol” and that Palestinians were also referred to as “wasps” and other dehumanizing terms.”
Several Palestinians and Israeli soldiers say troops are systematically forcing Palestinians to act as human shields in Gaza, sending them into buildings and tunnels to check for bombs and gunmen.

The dangerous practice has become ubiquitous during 19 months of war, they said.

the funniest thing about anti-DEI shit is it is objectively going to make everything worse, because places that prioritize DEI hiring policies are objectively more productive, because hiring that doesn't prioritize inclusiveness, wait for it, isn't based on merit.
