Saying that opposition to El-Sayed is based on his criticism of Israel is like saying opposition to David Duke when he ran for governor of Louisiana in 1990 was because he was against affirmative action. 1/

This is exactly right: @AbdulElSayed can be FOR lower costs and AGAINST scapegoating Jews. Instead, Abdul is blasting a neon light at the Jews as the obstacle to lower costs. Itโ€™s reprehensible.
This isnโ€™t about Haley Stevens. Itโ€™s about the basic question she raised: Why wonโ€™t El-Sayed just condemn the Jew-hating ad? News flash: You can be for lower costs and stand up to hate at the same time. jewishinsider.com/2026/10/elโ€ฆ

42 years ago tonight, a boy named Daniel Larusso was brutally attacked by a gang of masked thugs. Two months and one illegal crane kick later, young Daniel would exact his revenge with the help of a maintenance man from Okinawa. Please remember the true meaning of Halloween.

The vote count is complete. The Reservists and Economic Party received the support of approximately 152,000 voters, who appear to have come in roughly equal numbers from both political โ€œblocs,โ€ and from socioeconomic clusters reflecting the full political, economic, and identity spectrum of those who rushed to the front lines to defend the country on October 7. In doing so, we became the only party in these elections whose agenda and voters alike transcended the division into political โ€œblocs.โ€ But it is possible that, despite not being represented in the Knesset, the election results will nevertheless allow us to achieve the very thing for which we sought to enter it. The results hold enormous political potential. Precisely because neither side got what it wanted, an opportunity has opened up to form the government Israel needs: a broad, centrist Zionist government that will finally begin confronting the country's fundamental challenges. What do the results tell us? Netanyahu's coalition does not have a majority to return in its current composition. That is over. The change bloc does not have a majority to form a government without relying on parties and members of Knesset who hold explicitly antizionist and Palestinianist positions. And it seems it will take time to fully grasp the significance of the scale of political support for anti-Zionist Arab and ultra-Orthodox parties, especially in a scenario of their full voter mobilization. The possibility of political cooperation between anti-Zionist Arab and ultra-Orthodox parties, and the emergence of an โ€œantizionist blocโ€ that increasingly places the interests of these two groups above the shared Zionist interest, represents a strategic threat to the future of the State of Israel. For Zionist parties to rely on anti-Zionist parties in order to defeat a Zionist political rival is dangerous behavior. And here lies the paradox: an outcome that makes almost nobody happy individually could turn out to be an excellent result for the State of Israel and Zionism. Precisely because neither side can get everything it wants, the necessity of working together has emerged. The right government for Israel at this moment is a government of Likud, Yashar, Lieberman, and Bennett. A broad, centrist Zionist government, without the ultra-Orthodox and Arab parties, and also without the less centrist Zionist parties. Such a government could, if it chose to, commit to preserving the existing legal situation, under which there are no longer any arrangements granting exemptions from service and the law currently in force is the Defense Service Law. It could ensure that state services and public-sector positions are reserved for those who serve and defend the country. It could guarantee state Zionist education, in Hebrew, for all Israeli children. And it could put an end to the economic mechanisms through which Israel's welfare state has, for decades, encouraged draft evasion and separation from the Zionist enterprise. (And it certainly wouldn't hurt to lower the electoral threshold to encourage Zionist Arab and Zionist ultra-Orthodox political representation.) Such a government could confront the enormous diplomatic and security challenges ahead, finally begin working to dismantle Palestinianism at home and abroad, and return Israel to a Zionist and productive path. There are no serious security or economic differences between the parties of Netanyahu, Eisenkot, Bennett, and Lieberman that justify continued paralysis or another election. They have far more in common than our political discourse allows us to see. If they wanted to, they could form an excellent government. But for that to happen, both sides would have to give something up. Netanyahu cannot insist on preserving every component of his current coalition and expect everyone else simply to join it. The election results neither allow nor justify that. Conversely, the change bloc cannot insist on boycotting Netanyahu at the price of relying on antizionist and Palestinianist forces. The danger now is that, instead of seizing the opportunity, both sides will choose escalation, which could look like this: Netanyahu will entrench himself in a coalition that lacks a majority, while the other side will use its parliamentary majority to pass confrontational legislation and paralyze the government. Each side will respond with further escalation, and Israel will find itself in a prolonged political and institutional crisis, precisely when it needs a functioning government more than ever. This is exactly where we wanted to play a political role. We did not seek to be the kingmaker who determines who becomes prime minister. We sought to be the spearhead for establishing a broad, centrist Zionist government. A political force capable of standing up to either side that refused to compromise, and making it clear that refusal carries a price. This was our message throughout the campaign: What, not who. Israel is a parliamentary, coalition-based democracy. The prime minister, as the English name suggests, is the first among ministers, not a president and not a king. The identity of the prime minister matters, but the composition of the coalition and the policies it advances matter far more. Therefore, the question of who will be prime minister is secondary to the question of what kind of governing coalition we will have. Will it be a government that continues subsidizing draft evasion and separation from the rest of society, or one that restores service, Zionist education, and shared responsibility to the center of Israeli life? Will we continue postponing the confrontation with our fundamental problems, or will we seize the opportunity to halt processes that have been endangering our future for decades? These are the questions that truly matter. And if we fail to confront them now, the future price will be far higher โ€” and the damage may not even be reversible. We ran in these elections to change the direction in which Israel is heading. We had hoped to do so from within the Knesset, and we are disappointed that we will not be able to. But the results have created a genuine opportunity to achieve the very goal for which we embarked on this journey. The responsibility now lies with the leaders who were elected. They can continue to entrench in political blocs that have led Israel into repeated election cycles and governments dominated by the extremes, or they can recognize that the new political reality requires them to do something different. If a broad, centrist Zionist government is formed here, without the ultra-Orthodox and Arab parties, and finally begins confronting the fundamental questions facing the State of Israel, that will be the achievement we sought. And that will be reward enough for us.

AES knows that if you want to make the news, blame the Jews. Sad that people fall for this scapegoating time and again.
This is one of the most antisemitic things I've ever seen in a political ad, and it's for Abdul El-Sayed. The message: your life is hard, groceries are expensive, and the Jewish state is why. Total madness!

This is the kind of answer that I wouldโ€™ve thought nailed it before October 7 and before I started spending a lot of time around Jews and Israelis. First of all, I think a lot of Americans on the right and the left donโ€™t understand a full on assault on Gaza wouldโ€™ve happened no matter who was in charge on October 8th. Blaming this on Bibi is a cop out. Second, itโ€™s just a lie that Israel has acted out of proportion. Thatโ€™s why the population of Gaza has grown. Thatโ€™s why Israel literally sacrificed thousands of their own soldiers to knock on the doors of buildings and ask people to leave before hitting them. Thirdly, I think a lot of non-Jews kind of separate the Jewish community and Israel in their minds, but thatโ€™s not how most Jews who were active in their Judaism think about it. Fourthly, this is politically incorrect, but a lot progressives might technically be Jews, but are disconnected from Judaism and Jewish public life. They have views that are wildly out of step with the Jews that do you have deep ties to their community. It might be politically convenient for Democrats to listen to them, but it certainly not representative. Itโ€™s not hard to get a better perspective on all of this. Jews will tell you what they really think if they trust you. The problem is for most Americans theyโ€™ve become convinced you donโ€™t want to listen so they avoid the subject.
James Talarico: "I know that October 7th was the deadliest day for the jewish people since the Holocaust. And I believe that Israel, like any nation, has a right to defend its people. But I don't believe that Benjamin Netanyahu has a right to wage war against civilians, or use collective punishment, or restrict aid to civilians."

Yesterday, I found a chink in the armor of a pro-Palestinian antizionist march in downtown Boston. One, middle-aged woman (me) with an Israeli flag blew the march to pieces. I wasnโ€™t planning on leading a hate march with an Israeli flag. My friends had decided it was too dangerous for us as a group to do a counter demonstration against the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) at the steps of the Massachusetts State House in downtown Boston. So I went by myself and for the first twenty minutes, I stood on the other side of their demonstration. The two hundred or so Fedayeen watermelon people scoffed at me. One spat on my shoes, many gave me the finger but mainly they laughed at me. I stood in front of ten apathetic Boston police officers. But many Jews gave me the thumbs up and even some non-Jews clapped and took photos. The marchers then proceeded down the main street of Boston, Beacon Street, with their loudspeakers, screaming โ€œfrom the river to the seaโ€ โ€œIntifada Revolution, and โ€œNo to a Jewish state.โ€ It was then that I saw the chink in the armor, that is the American or letโ€™s say the Bostonian obsession with the freedom to march, which the antizionists smartly exploit. I realized that the Boston police would allow me to march directly in front of the terrorists with my Israeli flag. The optics were fantastic. It looked like one brave Israeli woman, proudly holding her Israeli flag, was winning the battle against two hundred hated-filled terrorists behind her (I think the terrorists were completely stunned by my brazen act). I fight in the style of the Hunger Games not The Matrix. In Catching Fire, Wiress and Beetee realize the Quarter Quell arena is designed like a clock. Beetee uses the Capitol's own arena lightning trap to blow up the forcefield. I single-handedly turned the anti-Israel march into a pro-Israel march. One person, by locating the chink in the armour. Many Israelis came forward to ask me if I needed protection. Jews cheered me on and gave me a thumbs up. And many non-Jews clapped on my behalf. The non-Jewish Zionists, they were out there too. They watched me. They were inspired by bravery and conviction. Fight the way you know how. Find the chink in the armour. Am Yisrael Chai๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿซถ

Israeli military actions didnโ€™t "lead captors to kill their hostages." Hamas' actions led Hamas to kill the hostages. This is so disgusting from CNN, I'm still struggling to believe that it's real.
Replying to @JDiamond1
We found 24/40 deaths can be traced back to Israeli military actions. That includes direct IDF strikes/gunfire, but also when Israeli military actions led captors to kill their hostages. That's not just us saying that: the IDF has acknowledged that in many of these cases /2

I have to take a moment from my sonโ€™s bedside, on life support after being struck by a Palestinian terrorist, to respond to the dangerous lies being spewed by @NYCMayor. Itโ€™s actually hard to find a sentence in Mamdaniโ€™s post that isnโ€™t a lie. Paying lip service to the victims of October 7 just to spread blood libels about Israel might play nicely to the red-green/communist-Islamist alliance that he promotes in the U.S, but those of us who know better see his perverted language for what it is. This man is a defender of Palestinian terrorism, a promoter of antisemitism, and an advocate of anti-Americanism. Even today, October 7, he canโ€™t help but attack the Jewish state with absurd accusations and outright propaganda. Letโ€™s be clear: the only attempted genocide in this conflict was perpetrated by the barbarians he supports, Hamas, who butchered, raped, and murdered in the most horrific ways imaginable. There is no genocide, ethnic cleansing, or famine in Gaza. Hamas embeds itself among, behind, and beneath the people of Gaza, knowing that the IDF will not, ever, intentionally target civilians. It robs its own people of the humanitarian aid that Israel has facilitated into Gaza since the war began. Hamas knows that its allies, including Zohran Mamdani, will regurgitate its lies, demonizing Israel and endangering Jews everywhere. Israel and its allies will not be deterred from defending civilization against terrorist savagery. Those of us who envision a peaceful and prosperous Middle East, will root out the evil that is Islamic terrorism and build a better future for all, Jew and Arab alike. If you want to understand the extent of the lies told by Mamdani and his radical Islamic commrades, you can read the truth in my book, โ€œManufacturing a Modern Blood Libel,โ€ here: linktr.ee/israelinusa.

Almost a year since the fighting stopped in Gaza, and in the face of a growing pile of evidence that no such thing occurred, anti-Israel activists are desperately trying to keep the genocide accusation alive. This week, three more complications threatened its survival. The question is how much longer they can keep it up. Between March 2 and May 19, 2025, Israel imposed a total blockade on Gaza, betting that they had sent enough food to prevent mass starvation. It did not account for bottlenecks and hoarding. Grain prices skyrocketed. Reports of malnutrition mounted. By July, aid agencies said more than 12,000 children had been identified as acutely malnourished, the highest monthly figure on record. That month, The New York Times ran โ€œGazans Are Dying of Starvationโ€ on its front page. Its most effective argument was the photo on the front page: a child with a protruding spine, cradled in his motherโ€™s arms. That the child had cerebral palsy, and that his brother, who was not skin and bones, had been quietly cropped out, the Times admitted just as quietly days later. The tens of thousands said to be collapsing from hunger were supposedly buried in the ministryโ€™s count of indirect deaths. This week, the Gaza Health Ministry released the full count. There were no mountains of skeletons. Obviously. Had there been, they would have made the Timesโ€™ front page instead of a cropped photograph. In its Annual Mortality Report for 2025, the ministry lists 24,650 registered deaths. Of those, 17,286 are attributed to โ€œwar operationsโ€ and another 1,584 to accidents. That leaves 5,780 deaths from everything else: heart disease, cancer, old age. Roughly what Gaza buried in a normal prewar year. The report lands two years after 99 physicians wrote to President Joe Biden alleging that 62,413 people had likely died of starvation and its complications between October 7, 2023, and September 30, 2024. A 2024 letter in The Lancet floated 186,000 total deaths. In 2025, the year of the famine, the ministryโ€™s own data shows no meaningful excess of non-violent deaths. The creative accounting doesnโ€™t end there. Take the infant data. Malnutrition accounted for 4.1 percent of infant deaths in 2025. In 2021, it was 4.4 percent. And 2025 was the year famine was declared in Gaza City. The ministryโ€™s report leads with the war dead and highlights an under-five mortality rate that more than doubled. Strip out the war deaths, though, and its own figure falls to 15.8 per 1,000. In 2022, it was 13.6. Over the same period, the ministry registered 50,227 births. By its own count, Gazaโ€™s population grew by 1.2 percent in 2025, faster than the global average. If Israel is committing genocide, it is the most incompetent perpetrator in the history of mankind. None of this means Gazans were feasting for two years. But the most repeated accusations were not โ€œGazans struggle with imbalanced dietโ€ or โ€œFood grows scarce under war conditions,โ€ because neither carries the rhetorical power to justify any and all action against the accused while absolving the accusers of the burden of proof. The genocide conspiracy had a second pillar. To hide its crime, Israel had to ban the international press and silence the truth-tellers on the ground. Yesterday, the IDF revealed that of the Gazans killed during the war and presented to the world as journalists or media workers, 170 were members of terrorist organizations. 118 belonged to Hamasโ€™s military wing. 49 to Palestinian Islamic Jihad. The remaining three to smaller factions. 17 took part in the October 7 massacre. More than 40 of their deaths had drawn condemnation from the United Nations. Iโ€™m sure that now that their identities are known, the rest will receive similar condolences. Some of the rรฉsumรฉs are impressive. Amro Nahid Abdel Rahman Abu Odeh worked for Reuters and Turkeyโ€™s Anadolu Agency. He was also, per the IDF, a team commander in the photography unit of Hamasโ€™s military wing. The military published two photos of him: one holding a camera, one holding a Kalashnikov. Hassan Majdi Ibrahim Abu Warda filed for the Barq Gaza news agency and moonlighted, according to the IDF, as a sniper in Islamic Jihadโ€™s Northern Gaza Brigade. Others on the list had worked with CNN, the BBC, AP, AFP, ABC News, Le Monde and Australiaโ€™s ABC. Perhaps the most important pillar of the genocide libel is its senselessness. Genocides are not waged out of reasonable security concerns, nor are they triggered by atrocities committed by the victims. They are acts of pure cruelty. That is why the genocide campaign has systematically sought to sever October 7 from the Gaza war, and from history itself. Which makes yesterday awkward. For the first time this millennium, a full year passed without a single rocket fired into Israel from Gaza. Perhaps, then, it was a war of security after all, not of extermination. Apply Occamโ€™s razor. There was no mass starvation. There was no war on journalists. And when it was over, Israelis were safer than before. You can explain all of that with one simple word: war. Or you can call it genocide, and simply contort the dwindling pieces of evidence to fit that conclusion. Using Occamโ€™s razor assumes that logic has been the accusersโ€™ goal. Had that been the case, we would never have gotten this far. The question is not when they will recant and beg Israelโ€™s forgiveness, but when the evidence will become so overwhelming that the lie simply cannot be sustained. Speedily, and in our days.

In short, the facts now emerging about the fatalities in Gaza are exactly as we predicted back in 2024. A lot of people should lose their careers over their ridiculous statistical modelling predicting hundreds of thousands of deaths in outlets like the Lancet and joke NGOs like AOAV. They wonโ€™t. Theyโ€™ll get a free pass. Their blood libel work is done. Famine allegations, destruction of healthcare, targeting civilians; all debunked by Hamasโ€™s own numbers. Thatโ€™s before we get to the 5,000 combatants weโ€™ve found on the lists so far (from obituaries released mainly by the militant groups themselves). The worldโ€™s media should hang their heads in shame.
Gaza Ministry of Health has now released mortality numbers for 2025. For the first time since the war, they give numbers for all deaths, including natural deaths. In 2025 there were a total of 24,650 deaths in Gaza. 18,870 (76.6%) of these were violent, of which 17,286 (70.1%) were due to "war operations" and 1,584 (6.4%) were classified as accidents. There were a total of 5,780 (23.4%) non-violent deaths, including disease, old age, and all other causes. 5,780 deaths is about the same as the annual non-violent mortality in Gaza before the war, and the age distribution is similar to 2022. There is no significant excess of non-violent deaths. In other words, despite frequent and loud claims to the contrary, there seems to be very few indirect deaths due to the war in Gaza in 2025. As there were 50,227 births in 2025, this gives a natural population growth of 25,577 or 1.2% in Gaza in 2025, which is higher population growth than most countries in the world and more than the world average. There are currently ~6,000 births/month in Gaza, per GMH. Assuming a similar number of non-violent deaths in Gaza in 2026 as in 2025, that means there are currently 12x more births than deaths in Gaza, and that Gaza is now experiencing one of the highest population growths in the world.

I'm happy to see that the @nytimes now has a brand new policy in place, in recognition of the significant bias of their past headlines and coverage, live or after the fact. Guess they finally took heed of the research done by @HonestReporting, @ed_pinker, and many others.
Our headlines and live coverage contain all the facts we're able to confirm as we confirm them. Unlike activists and partisans, we don't publish speculation or unverified information. Here's a Gift Link to follow along as we update our reporting: nytimes.com/live/2026/09/30/โ€ฆ

The hijacker (and co-pilot) on board FZ1073 stabbed Cpt Smit Machchhar, an Indian national during the flight, but the Captain heroically managed to open the cockpit door before collapsing. His quick thinking saved over 170 lives today and enabled the passengers to subdue the terrorist as he was attempting to crash the plane. Wishing him a full recovery and sending our thanks on behalf of Israel!
