What has happened: Hamas saw the backlash from the hostage release on Saturday. They know it is only going to get worse now - especially with so many coffins to come. So they have stalled... That is what this is really about.

What a bizarre headline. “LGBTQ institutions are purging their staffs of homophobes” “Black institutions are purging their staffs of racists” Why would anyone think they can work at a Jewish org while professing beliefs 85% of Jews consider antisemitic? Utterly bizarre.

Having listened to the arguments of both sides over the last year, I'm no longer on the fence about Israel's war. Here is why:

I did not have “Mehdi Hasan blames Israel for 9/11” on my bingo card for today.
Never forget that it was the destruction of Beirut by Israel in 1982 that Bin Laden would later claim inspired his attack on the Twin Towers in 2001. There is such a thing as blowback. And yes, violence begets violence, terror producers more terror.

Jews laughing in your face about how you have no idea what you’re talking about and exposing you for the fraud you are is not the same as threatening you.
I’ve received a lot of serious threats from powerful Jews saying if I don’t stop posting about Israel and the Talmud, I’ll be jailed or killed. My answer is fuck you. There is a war going on between good and evil. You will be tested

This community note is self-evident. The truth of it is too blatant for people to seriously dispute. But replace “WWII” with “Gaza War” and “Germany” with “Hamas” and suddenly something that should be axiomatic leaves people unable to see the obvious.

To those condemning Israel for its hostage rescue operation know that there will be more of them. Now is your opportunity. Scream with your full voice. Plead with Hamas to release the hostages. Clearly, pressuring Israel hasn’t stopped it, so maybe try another tactic.
