@peterbeinart.bsky.social's new book is "Being Jewish After the Destruction of Gaza." He says it is "addressed to my fellow Jews and trying to say that something has gone catastrophically wrong in our community."

This revelation is chilling but follows a clear pattern: Neo-Nazis aren't just infiltrating our institutions - they're being handed the keys.

The DOGE operative's open promotion of Neo-Nazi ideology while dismantling USAID from within represents a direct threat to Jews as well as democratic values.
On Dec 5th, 2024, Musk's DOGE employee Gavin Kriger retweeted this tweet by Nick Fuentes, a notorious, explicit neo-Nazi and leader of the antisemitic, white-supremacist Groyper movement.

In a deep dive on the Reconstructionist Rabbinical College, @shaneburley.bsky.social shows how clashes between the liberal Zionist school and its heavily anti-Zionist student body encapsulate a broader fight over the Jewish future.

Imagine calling oneself a christian but also cutting off aid for millions of people in need around the globe. That is what the Evangelical bible thumping US government just did.

Project 25 is in full effect. The complete breakdown of international order is a main objective of the far right and their conservative ‘christian’ friends.

Some fascinating images here.
The #Holocaust was the first widely photographed mass atrocity. #LastSeen project collects images of Nazi deportations (1938–1945), often the last photos of victims—some even taken by Jewish individuals. https://buff.ly/3EdyAna (Wolf Gruner @dornsife.usc.edu) 🗃️ #HolocaustRememberanceDay

On International Holocaust Remembrance Day, a Yiddish-language poster printed in Poland in 1945, encouraging concentration camp survivors to testify to their experiences. It reads, "Let the historical truth be a tomb for fascism!" while also citing the Passover holiday in the text in the book.

Ever wonder what settlers gain from Jewish terrorism?

After last night’s pogrom, Funduq is sealed off: shops are closed, and only settlers’ cars drive the main road.

This is apartheid in action: settlers attack, Palestinians are punished.

HAPPENING NOW:

Over 50 terrorist settlers are carrying out a pogrom in the towns of Funduq and Jinsafut, in the occupied West Bank, torching buildings and vehicles.

This is Jewish terrorism in action, fully backed by our criminal government.
