A peaceful Shabbat to my Shalomies.
In white text over a black and white blurred photo of protesters holding signs and phones: Montréal friends, your attention please. Two major protests are planned against The Israel-Hamas War this weekend. It's also Purim, a beloved and joyful Jewish holiday in the spirit of "They tried to kill us all. They didn't. Let's drink!" that features costumes, a little play for the kids, and getting tipsy. This is not a coincidence. Whatever you may feel about the ongoing horrors in the Middle East, I trust that you know that local Jews putting on a pantomime for their kids and tying one on in silly hats hold no sway over foreign wars. I trust that you know that the Israeli government does not represent the diaspora. Israel isn't the Jewish Vatican nor Bibi a Pope. Because you're paying attention, I also trust you know that although the cause against Israel may be a righteous one, it is being used as cover for latent antisemitism by people who have been increasingly aggressive at protests in the city and proudly threatening real violence online. If you're hearing this, I promise that you know and love a Jew who is religious to a degree that they'll be spending time at shul this weekend. If you're attending these rallies, I hope that you do so out of respect, value, and trust in the exercise of my freedom of religion; the very same sentiments I hold for your freedom of protest; because I know we share these sentiments towards our freedom of conscience I ask one thing: make sure you know where they are, and put your body between the synagogues an the mob. Once more and louder for those in the Tribe: put your body between the synagogues an the mob.

There are a thousand things to say, and no words to meet this moment.

What a time to be alive.
