Trigger Warning: graphic descriptions of rape and sexual assault.

It took me 5 tries to finish this video, it made me that upset. But this story needs to be heard.

A video from the West Bank shows a group of radical right wing settlers brutally assaulting a Palestinian family.

We can never stay quiet in the face of these injustices.

Harming these innocent people will not make anyone safer, whether Israeli or Palestinian.

Settler violence must be stopped.

The Rabbi of Park East Synagogue, NY, lived through Kristallnacht.

Last night, antisemites were chanting for intifada outside his synagogue.

He survived this hatred once. Now, he’s forced to watch it rise again.

This was never about Gaza. It’s an attack on the Jewish people.

Alon Ohel, a survivor of Hamas captivity, walked into Hostages Square today and sat at the piano, waiting for it.

He played “Song Without a Name”, the song that carried him through months in darkness.

A moment of resilience. A reminder of the human spirit they tried to break but couldn’t.

South Africa has been insistent that Israel is committing a genocide in Gaza.

Yet when Gazans try to flee to South Africa, they are denied entry.

You would think that the country that constantly uses Palestinian suffering to leverage its own power would be more welcoming. But I guess not.
