Le film "Collapse - Face à Gaza" a été tourné à proximité immédiate de Gaza et d’un kibboutz touché par les attaques du 7 octobre.À travers ces images et une discussion entre Anat Even et Ariel Cypel, il montre comment la société israélienne, dans son écrasante majorité, demeure indifférente à ce qui se déroule à Gaza.
Un témoignage essentiel.

"#Rabbi #RazielCohen, 29, known on #socialmedia as “#TheTacticalRabbi,” has spent recent years leading an unusual initiative in the #UnitedStates: an academy that trains #Jews in #firearms use and #selfdefense. Against the backdrop of rising #antisemitic incidents across the United States and growing anxiety within #Jewish communities since #Hamas’ #Oct7 terror attack, #Cohen says demand for his training programs has surged sharply.
Cohen was recently documented instructing students at a private #shootingrange in a wooded area of #Pennsylvania’s Pocono Mountains. During the training, participants practiced firing #AR15 #rifles, quick-draw drills and tactical movement. “Jews today understand that the only person who can protect their lives and their families is themselves,” he told the website NorthJersey [dot] com."

The #Ayatollahs of #Tehran and #Qom are going to subject their citizens hardships which will rival that of #IranIraq war of 1980s. Perpetual conflict and massacres of its own citizens are the only way to maintain their hold over power.
Whoever in #Iran and #Gaza thought that #Oct7 was a good idea, congrats you are no where near achieving any of your goals. Step up and claim your reward, sheer desolation, of #Iran, #Hamas, #Houthis, etc

"One of the many consequences of the #Oct7 terror attacks and subsequent global rise in #antisemitism has been the emergence of a host of new #grassroots #Jewish organizations and initiatives, led by a new generation of Jewish leaders.
Last month, a group of #grantmakers brought approximately 100 of those emerging leaders to #Louisville, #Ky., for a “Collaboratory,” aimed at helping the new sector “professionalize” and connect them to more established Jewish organizations, #AdinaPoupko, executive director of the #NatanFund, which helped spearhead the gathering, told eJewishPhilanthropy.
After the Oct. 7 attacks, as grassroots campaigns arose to combat antisemitism in #education, local #governments and #arts spaces, the #Natan Fund started issuing #microgrants to help those efforts with their immediate needs, like printing costs and location rentals."

"#JudyBlume, the acclaimed #author of young people’s #novels, saw resurged interest in her work in 2023. One of her most famous #books, Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret, hit the big screen as an acclaimed feature-length #film; that same year, Amazon released a #documentary about her, Judy Blume Forever. Meanwhile, Mark Oppenheimer—a #writer, podcaster, editor and teacher at the John C. Danforth Center on Religion and Politics—was asked by the author herself to write her #biography.
Months after the Blume bonanza, #Oct7 happened. And while this has little bearing on the public’s appreciation of Blume work, The CJN’s opinion editor, Phoebe Maltz Bovy, got to wondering: would the world be so excited about a #Jewish writer (who writes openly Jewish characters) if her #movies were slated for 2024 instead?"

"A few weeks ago, I published an op-ed in eJewishPhilanthropy titled “How the language of #Jewish #Peoplehood can move us forward from the current crisis” (Jan. 15). In that piece, I proposed shifting our focus toward revisiting the constitutive values of Jewish Peoplehood and providing fresh answers to foundational questions: What does being responsible for fellow #Jews mean today? Which components of our ethos remain vital? How do we navigate the tensions between these values when they clash?
In response, some readers asked: Why now? What has changed? What is the urgency?
So much has changed in Israel and the Jewish world since #Oct7, 2023, raising questions about some fundamental aspects of what it means to be a part of the Jewish People."

@Nonilex If #Hamas does not disarm then the so called #peacekeeping force that will be deployed will do it. That is the expectation.
#Hamas has to go. It cannot be allowed to survive and repeat another #Oct7.

Ein Essay, der eine gute Analyse für die Abgründe vieler Linker bietet, lest gerne!
„Für den Autor als Anarchist ist es wichtig, dass Genoss:innen begreifen, dass der Vater vieler ihrer Einordnungen Stalin ist. Zu sehen, wie weltweit Anarchist*innen […] zum 7. Oktober Stellung bezogen haben, ist mit dem Begriff der Enttäuschung nicht zu fassen.

"#Donors using #Harvard’s #donoradvisedfund directed nearly $9 million to three organizations focused on #Jewish life and combating #antisemitism in fiscal year 2024, according to the #University’s most recent tax filings.
The seven-figure distribution represents a sharp departure from prior years, when donor-advised fund giving to Jewish-focused organizations was limited to isolated grants of less than $350,000.
The grants were made during a year marked by a turbulent period for Harvard, as the University faced donor backlash, declining #philanthropic contributions, and heightened scrutiny over its handling of antisemitism following #Hamas’ #Oct7, 2023 attack on #Israel and subsequent #campus #protests."

@hiphopheaven @dangillmor Because of what happened on #Oct7. I refuse to equate the victim with the perpetrator. #Israel will have to account for its crimes. But those crimes do not justify #Oct7.
Prior to #Oct7 there were no Israeli troops in Gaza. Gaza was not a rubble. Now #Gaza has #Israeli troops and is a rubble thanks to al-Aqsa Flood operation.
What #Hamas, #IslamicJihad and their cohorts have done is set back the emergence of a Palestine state by decades. -
@hiphopheaven @dangillmor
A land without people for people without land was and still remains fundamentally flawed. And possibly fatally. So is the project of greater #Israel. The instances of Israeli settler violence against Occupied West Bank and Occupied Gaza are appalling.This does not justify #Oct7. #Hamas and its ilks carried out a medieval barbaric, inhuman murder of people. #Hamas has to be held accountable for its role in causing the suffering of Gaza.

I've added a gallery of my Eye of Beholder interactive installation's guest appearance at the Independent Journalism Convention in Tel Aviv, on January 30th.
This was a chance to hang all 279 memorial press name tags for #gaza #journaliats slain since #oct7 2023.
Thanks to @neo for arranging this with the convention's organizers, as well as manually filling the name tags of reporters killed during the current ceasefire ( #שלום_על_ישראל ). -

Ultimately, @andrewstroehlein , there can be no peace without justice, and there can be no deterrence without justice.
If the UN cannot get Netanyahu, Smotrich, Ben Gvir (and the surviving planners of the #Oct7 attack, if any) convicted at the International Criminal Court, then the 'International Rules Based Order' has completely failed.

@welkin7 @palestine
OMG, you really are a true dimbfuckistani -
@faab64 @palestine
Do you think whatever happened to prior #Oct7, justified #OperationAlAqsaFloodAbout memory, prior to #Oct7 there was no Israeli presence in #Gaza. There were rockets and projectiles being fired from Gaza into Israel. Apparently that does not stay in the memory. Some were launched from rooftops of hospitals. There were zero settlements in #Gaza. #Gaza was not a rubble. Now there are Israeli troops on ground. And #Gaza is a rubble.
-
Do you think this conflict started on October 7, 2023?
Or you think we are your typical dumbfuckistani people who have the memory of a gold fish and think reaction of 76 years of occupation and ignoring 22000 days before and 730 days after it are nothing to consider, talk about or condemn?
Again, are you getting paid repeating hasbara nonsense here?
-
@faab64 @palestine
The decision on #tunnels is upto #hamas and #Palestinian people. But if decision is theirs, the consequences of those decisions are also theirs. If dont shrink from the decision then have the guts to accept the results of those decisions too. Dont run away and hide in Doha or Tehran.
This applies equally to Israeli decision on having settlements in #WestBank. Both decision and consequences. -
@welkin7 : #Israel turned the #Gaza Strip into a concentration camp long before #Oct7.
Israel:
🎗️ *WANTED* Oct7 to happen,
🎗️ *MADE* Oct7 happen, and
🎗️ *LET* Oct7 happen.It was planned. As an excuse for fulfilling the objective in https://myesha.org.il/?CategoryID=419:
"To safeguard Israel's strategic expanses–between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea".
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yesha:
«
Yesha (…) is a Hebrew acronym for "Judea, Samaria, Gaza"…
»Netanyahu et al. accepted a small setback. Hamas again fell in the trap (by Netanyahu+Trump) - in order to get all Israeli hostages back (+ ~20% of Palestinian hostages held by Israel).
After satisfying Israeli population's primary demand, freeing the ISRAELI hostages, the only thing Netanyahu et al. may worry about (while murdering and/or expelling FIVE MILLION PALESTINIANS) are economic sanctions from western countries (except the USA, their support of Greater Israel will remain unconditional).

Nobody could watch the live broadcasts from Hostages' Square (formerly Rabin Square) in Tel Aviv, #Israel right now and still legitimately think that Israelis want anything but peace. The huge, humongous crowd there is celebrating the #hostages' return, and the end of the war.
Nobody is celebrating a victory, or the defeat of their enemies. Only the return of the captives, and the restoration of #peace.

Document the scenes of #horror, now, and broadcast them on #TV channels to the whole world,” a commander from #Gaza City called Abu al-Baraa told operatives in the area of #Kibbutz Sa’ad, according to a message intercepted by #Israel. “Slaughter them.

/yeez-’kor/ יִזְכֹּר — “May [God] remember.”
A memorial prayer honoring those who have passed, said on holy days and times of national mourning.Two years ago today — October 7, 2023 — our world shattered.
Innocent lives stolen. Families torn apart.Today, we say /yeez-’kor/ יִזְכֹּר.
We remember the children, parents, friends, and neighbors — each a light extinguished too soon.
We remember those still held captive.May God remember their souls and bind them in eternal life.
May their memory inspire us to choose light, hope, and life.We will never forget.

‘Red Alert’ Review: Paramount+ Israeli Drama Offers a Taut, Effectively Manipulative Depiction of the October 7 Terror Attacks
#TV #TVReviews #Oct7 #Paramount #RedAlert -
CW: oct 7
Kfir and Ariel and Shiri Bibas should be playing in a sukkah.
Yiftach should be flying kites with messages of peace to Gaza.
Fatma's nine children should have a mother.
The Abu Rashed family should have a two-year-old daughter.
Yazan should be in second grade. Refael should be a bar mitzvah.
I shouldn't know their names.
I shouldn't be able to tell you where Nir Oz, Be'eri, Kfar Aza, are.

CW: Antisemitismus, Hamas
Es muss leider auch diesen #Oct7 wieder gesagt werden: Es ist vollkommen in Ordnung zum Krieg in #Gaza eine Meinung zu haben. Es ist auch in Ordnung für eine Seite Partei zu ergreifen. Aber:
Wer daraus Hass gegen Juden ableitet ist ein Antisemit.
Wer die Hamas feiert, feiert faschistoide islamistische Mörder.
Wer das Massaker von #Oct7 gut heißt, hat den Boden der Menschlichkeit verlassen.

#politics #oct7 #pbdpodcast -
The news set off a paroxysm of fury & agony in #Israel rarely seen since the tumultuous days that followed #Hamas’s attack on Israel on #Oct7, 2023, when up to 1,200 people were killed and 251 were abducted, including Ms. #Bibas & her sons, on the deadliest day in Israeli history.
Responding to the military’s announcement, PM Benjamin #Netanyahu of Israel returned to the language of vengeance that defined his speeches in the aftermath of that attack.
-
#Hamas said the 4th body released was of #OdedLifshitz, a retired #journalist & #peace activist who was 83 at the time of the #Oct7 attacks. #Lifshitz was taken from Kibbutz Nir Oz w/ his wife, Yocheved, who was released by #Hamas wks later for “crushing humanitarian reasons,” per a stmnt from the group at the time.
Yocheved, who is also in her 80s, described the “unimaginable hell” of her time in captivity, which included beatings & being held in a “spiderweb” of tunnels. -
#Hamas released the bodies of 4 hostages Thurs, including…the remains of a mother & her 2 young children, members of the #Bibas family, whose story came to symbolize the brutality of the #Oct7, 2023 attacks.
…The deaths of Shiri Bibas & her sons—Ariel, who was 4yrs old, & Kfir, who was 8½ months old at the time of the abduction—were suspected for months, but only confirmed when Hamas announced their bodies would be among those released.#Israel #Gaza #war #geopolitics
