So, I have googled and it turns out that each of the sprouts if rooted and planted will turn into an onion bulb. You have to separate the layers. I did that and discovered three distinct sprouts. One was already rooting inside the onion.

The Jewish museum event and the rally in Boulder *were* more political events than Jewish ones, but if you consider either of them compelling targets for political violence it seems like a very short jump to going after synagogues that fly Israeli flags, or Jewish day schools that celebrate Israel.

The only path forward is one that rejects the false binaries of the conflict and of our security — instead recognizing that Israeli & Palestinian dignity & freedom are intertwined, as is the safety of Jews and each and every other community.

Meanwhile, the impacts here at home are also ongoing, including last week’s horrific and deadly antisemitic shooting in DC. Antisemitism, anti-Arab hate, and Islamophobia have all increased significantly over the past 600 days.

And a small part of me worries that saying "Canadians are divided!" — at least unless it's justified — will actually promote unnecessary division.
