Jen: *says Anything*

No surprise to anyone paying attention: a new report in The Telegraph today confirms the BBC’s blatant bias against Israel, with skewed coverage since October 7th.

People consume this news like it’s coming from an impartial source— clearly, it’s not. The real question is: how much longer will we tolerate biased reporting that fuels hate and distorts the truth?

Were you surprised? Let me know

When are people going to stop pretending SJP protests are for peace?

As Maya Angelou said- when someone shows you who they are, believe them.

Shana Tova!!! May your enemies, haters, and those who wish evil upon you be cut off. The blessing for the leek has always felt resonant but this year it's been on my mind a lot. For me at least, 5785 is a year of practicing healthy boundaries and taking care of myself - even if I have to run on spite. I hope everyone has a safe Rosh Hashanah ❤️

This is what means to be a non-Muslim living in a Muslim supremacist regime. You don’t have rights. Your existence on this planet depends on the mercy of Muslims who consider themselves to be your inherent superiors based on their religion and your refusal to convert.

This is what Hamas wants for Israel. They want to recreate what Iran has done. Any Jews allowed to live will be treated as second class citizens, killed if they have the temerity to defend themselves.

This is what people who say “From the River to the Sea” and “Globalize the Intifada” are actually supporting. Its not for some idyllic little country where the Muslims will suddenly change and become the version of America that they think should exist. It will be a brutal, oppressive Sharia compliant country.

Maybe you should think about what you are supporting. Israel is not perfect. But Israel is pluralistic society that has demonstrated it respect human rights of its citizens. Could it do more? Yes. But so could every other liberal democracy out there.

But the difference between what Israel is and what Hamas and Fatah want are striking. Israel wants to be better. Hamas and Fatah do not.

“Books are too expensive” -> GET A LIBRARY CARD!!!

“E-books are too expensive” -> GET A LIBRARY CARD!!!

“Audiobooks are too expensive” -> GET A LIBRARY CARD!!!

“Video games are too expensive” -> GET A LIBRARY CARD!!!

“Subscriptions to magazines/newspapers are too expensive” -> GET A LIBRARY CARD!!!

For real, get a library card for your local public library and you will have almost unlimited access to all kinds of media for free. Libraries also often have many different kinds of classes you can take, often for free or very cheap. Oh, and don’t forget the computers and internet access you can also use for free.

In conclusion, yet a library card.

SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL PUBLIC LIBRARY!!!

I found it so bizarre when I came across posts on Tumblr talking about a random Palestinian online influencer by her first name (yeah, I know she has a "press" vest, so people call her a journalist. Seriously laughing at anyone thinking or pretending like there's any free press in Gaza. If you're Gazan and have a "press" vest, you got it from Hamas, or it was at some point approved by Hamas). But it's not just the way they talked about her by her first name, as if she was someone they personally knew, and therefore could fully trust, it's the way that there were instructions passed on from her to the masses reading the posts. "Bisan said" this and "Bisan asked that we" that, and I felt like I was reading the instructions of a cult leader being passed down to the cult members. Honestly, it might as well have said, "Saint Bisan" the way that she's quoted like her every word is to live and die by.

Examples will be attached to the end of this post.

Anyway, turns out Saint Bisan has asked people to donate to her and other Gazans, and then just decided to keep all that money to herself? What a shocker.

And I'm gonna stress again she's got some sort of a connection to Hamas, or she wouldn't be able to pass herself off as a journalist. That's where everyone's money has gone to. Someone with at the very least ties to a genocidal, antisemitic terrorist organization, responsible for the biggest massacre of Jews since the Holocaust, with their only greater victim being the Palestinians themselves, when Hamas uses them as human shields or directly kills them.

Anyway, here's just two random examples of some cult-like posts with instructions from "Saint" Bisan...

Oh, and I just read that before the war, her family's home and her office were in the neighborhood of Rimal. Before the Oct 7 massacre, that was considered a luxury neighborhood, and ONLY people affiliated with Hamas were rich enough that they could afford to live there. She's been saying that she's Hamas all along. People just don't know the nuances of her language.

I believe one of the most telling signs of how bad blatant antisemitism has gotten, is that diaspora Jews are terrified for Israeli Jews, while Israeli Jews are terrified for diaspora Jews.

Here's the latest example of why I, as an Israeli Jew, in the middle of a multi-front war, am terrified for my siblings abroad...

Two vids that I combined into one, because Tumblr's a dick to posts with multiple ones:

What makes this of particular concern is the fact that this is a man who's supposed to be combating antisemitism, but instead he's perpetuating it, while actively denying Jews some of the few tools that are meant to protect marginalized communities...

IDK if it's of any comfort, but diaspora Jews, you are NOT alone. We see you, we hear what you're going through, we care. We wish we could do more for you, but you are NEVER alone. <3

Sending you all the love from Israel, be strong! xoxox

“The opposition is nearing single digits at this point and establishment and moderate Republicans are proving just how meaningless those two descriptors have always been when applied to them. They are proving that the GOP ethos is absolutely clear: party—the MAGA party—over country. The assumption is that Jordan is promising them something, and that he will be able to deliver that something better than anyone else could. Yes, the same Jordan that former Speaker John Boehner called a “legislative terrorist.” The same Jordan who tried to overturn the 2020 election. The one who was on the phone with Donald Trump the morning of Jan. 6, 2021—mere hours before the MAGA mob attacked the Capitol, invaded their chamber, and threatened every member of Congress’s health and lives.”

‘Moderate’ House Republicans folding like cheap tents for insurrectionist Jordan’s speaker bid

There is no such thing as a “moderate” Republican.

It’s maddening to find out that the scholar who first developed the idea that “Zionism is Settler Colonialism”, Fayez Sayegh, was a member of the Syrian Nazi Party during and immediately after the Holocaust, was an active participant in the Red Scare, using it to demonize Israel as a manifestation of a Global Communist Threat™️ through the height of the Cold War (true to his Nazi roots, accusing Israel of Judeo-Bolshevism) before switching to a Colonialism narrative when Post-Colonialism came in vogue in the 60s. And yet, the people I hear parroting the talking points of this anti-Communist, Ultranationalist Fascist-turned-scholar are the people who are constantly talking about how Liberal Progressives aren’t Communist enough and actually enemies because “Liberals will always side with Fascists”. Maddening.

If you’ve ever noticed how the “Zionism = Settler Colonialism” narrative eerily shares the core components of the far right’s Replacement Theory (that there are 1. Jews 2. conspiring to invade a given place and 3. replace the population with Jews), this is why; it’s because the idea that Zionism is Settler Colonialism came from a literal Nazi.

It is very literally Nazi propaganda.
