Adieu Alain Delon, an icon of french cinema and one of the most handsome men to exist (1935-2024).

"Antizionists": Israel needs to stop doing any military action that might kill civilians, hostages be damned!

Israel: *launches an EXTREMELY targeted cyber-attack against Hezbollah members by making their pagers explode, injuring (mostly) ONLY people carrying said Hezbollah pagers, making them by definition NOT civilians*

"Antizionists": No, not like that.

There is literally NOTHING Israel can do that won't enrage antisemites. They won't be satisfied unless Israel sits back and lets its people be slaughtered.

Happy Mid-Autumn & Sukkot to my fellow Chinese-Jewish households! 🥮🌿🍋🌕

Die Trauung (Wedding) by M. D. Oppenheim. Oppenheim was born in Hanau, Germany and painted scenes of Jewish life.

The bride and groom wear gold and silver belts exchanged as sivlonot--marriage gifts from the husband to the wife--as per German Jewish custom.

It is Oct. 7th. One year. A year since the worst massacre of Jews in a single day since the Holocaust and a year since I witnessed on my dash, in real time, people and blogs I enjoyed and respected actually celebrating this utter depravity and imagining this absolutely evil position gave them moral superiority. An entire year of the total dehumanisation of raped, brutalised, and kidnapped human beings. An entire year of atrocity denying, victim blaming justification of the actions of genocidal antisemitic terrorists. An entire year of hostages being held captive in Gaza being subject to unimaginable treatment, for nothing but the “crime” of daring to live.

An entire year of a repulsive and terrifying global explosion in antisemitic abuse and violence, of Jewish pain and grief being ridiculed, sneered at, and ignored. An entire year of the left loudly and proudly betraying every single ideal they supposedly stood for. An entire year of so-called progressives and human rights activists throwing Jews and Israelis under the bus and patting themselves on the back for it.

My Jewish and Israeli friends, I know today is a painful and traumatic day, as it has been a painful and traumatic year. I hold you all in my heart and my thoughts today and every day and I stand with you unreservedly and unapologetically. Your strength and resilience in the face of unspeakable cruelty, your deep love for those who have been lost and your endless hope for those still in captivity has been inspiring and humbling.

May the hostages return home safe to their families and may there be peace 💙💙🇮🇱🎗
