Still relevant with Dylan saying in 1983 that Israel and Jewish people are often treated as the “bad guy” when they defend themselves.

In memory of Lux Interior.
80 years ago, Erick Lee Purkhiser, better known as Lux Interior, singer and co-founder (alongside Poison Ivy) of The Cramps, was born in Akron, Ohio.
Read this. Learn.
This year's uber-grotesque of a Peace Prize winner was chosen from a field of 287 candidates. How'd the Nobel committee explain such a brazen piece of complicity with anti-Jewish malignancy, human rights abuses, cruelty and dictatorship?
The way they all do, of course, with dishonest, pseudo-pacifist references to international law and peace.

He’s made the world laugh. But when it comes to hate, Sacha Baron Cohen – who turned 55 this week - isn’t joking.
Best known for Borat and his outrageous characters, he showed a very different side of himself at the Lincoln Memorial on the 60th anniversary of the historic March on Washington.
No costumes. No characters. Just a powerful message about the dangers of antisemitism and racism, and the responsibility we all share to confront them.
Watch what happens when one of the world’s funniest men gets serious and share it with someone who needs to hear it.

David Bowie | Warszawa
An ideal representation of Bowie & Eno's partnership, the former evoking the bleak atmosphere of his prior trip to the Polish capital, and the latter creating the 'song' while Bowie was away on legal business. The finished piece stands testament as one of Bowie's Berlin era defining masterpieces.

The time we played CBGB in NYC with a bizarre band called Life,Sex & Death & they spelled our name wrong on the handbill. Can you spot it?
.@ItsGrahamParker Hi GP. Thought you might enjoy another look. This one is for you and it's honours your incredible songwriting. youtu.be/h1ivTESgOWY @Watchmenmusic @listentodg
Best of luck @JesseBrown. Grateful he continues to speak out about antisemitism and pushes back when anti-Zionism crosses the line into denying Jews a homeland. (P.S...He wasn't fired).

The world demonizes Israel 365 days a year.
Perhaps, for just one day—October 7th—the critics of Israel could take a vacation from their hysterical hatred of the world’s only Jewish State and find it within themselves to express condolences for the thousands of Israelis murdered, maimed, mutilated, raped, and abducted at the hands of Hamas.
Jewish teachers deserve the same safety, dignity, and protection as everyone else. I stand with them and support their call for accountability.
Twelve Jewish teachers and educators have filed human rights applications against four Ontario school boards and two teachers’ unions, alleging systemic antisemitism and discrimination in their workplaces. toronto.citynews.ca/2026/10/…
