Very proud of Dr Levine and her no-nonsense approach to public health, an approach that has yielded real results. I am also honored to have had the opportunity to work with her for several years in Pennsylvania. #publichealth #leadership www.npr.org/sections/sho...

No, @the-independent.com, Israel does not target or attack Gaza schools and hospitals.
It targets the terrorists who abuse and hide inside civilian infrastructure.
To suggest otherwise is tantamount to a blood libel.

When you hear people calling to globalize the intifada they are calling for terror attacks like this one, in which 12-year-old Yehoshua Aharon Tuvia Simha was murdered.

The "Axis of Resistance," led by the Islamic Republic of Iran, "opposes Israeli influence in the Middle East."
That's not how @thetimes.com should be describing Iran's advocating for Israel's destruction. 🤦

VIDEO: The IDF destroyed Syria's entire MiG-29 fleet. 30 aircraft. What is happening now in Syria is extraordinary in scale. Dozens of fighter jets and helicopters, dozens of anti-aircraft and radar batteries, anti-tank and long-range rockets.

Incredible
The "reverse exodus" from Turkey into Syria. And this is what the flow of Syrians returning through the Turkish border to Syria looked like tonight after the fall of the Assad regime.

This is what ‘globalize the intifada’ looks like…
“Khaybar, Khaybar Ya Yahud, Jaish Mohammed Sauf Ya’ud” -- “Watch Out Jews, Remember Khaybar, the Army of Mohammed is returning.”
No, News.com.au, this is not Australians celebrating Syrian regime change. They are chanting incitement to murder Jews.

Hamas’s attack on Israel unified Israel and triggered a chain reaction exposing the instability of Iran’s proxies across the region, including Syria. The attempt to bring Israel down is backfiring on those who rely on violence and terror. 🇮🇱

That's how @theguardian.com describes Palestinians held by Israel for acts of terrorism and violence.

Longer thread: The Iran Angle: Analyzing the Situation in Syria
The current situation in Syria is causing significant concern for the Iranian regime. Over the years, Iran has invested heavily in establishing its influence in the region, but now it is witnessing the erosion of its efforts.

🚨 Northwestern University has quietly ended its agreement with @aljazeerapr.bsky.social. Why does this matter? Because partnerships with organizations tied to terrorism raise serious legal and ethical concerns, and erode trust in academic institutions. Let’s break it down. 🧵
