“…in the first week after Hamas’ deadly attack, in which 1,400 Israelis were killed, antisemitic incidents in the U.S. tripled in comparison to the same week last year.” theconversation.com/antisemitism-h…

I used to do interviews on Al Jazeera a couple times a week on a range of international security issues.

Then, Hamas committed the most gruesome terrorist attack since the advent of international terrorism in the early 1970s.

Ever since, I never heard from Al Jazeera again.

A common anti-Israel talking point is that Israel is responding out of vengeance to the most gruesome terrorist attack since the advent of international terrorism in the early seventies.

This claim reflects counterterrorism illiteracy.

I’m speaking with CNN this morning about how Hamas adopted many of ISIS’ tactics.

The worst “pro-Palestine” chant you hear at rallies is for a “global intifada” which is a call for international terrorism.

This is another example of a DEI group that exhibits bias against Jewish interests in the name of diversity and inclusion. This is true of almost all DEI groups.

One of the most common anti-Israel talking points these days is that Netanyahu helped Hamas.

One of the main pieces of evidence is that he allowed money and humanitarian aid into Gaza and increased work permits to earn money in Israel.

Stockholm syndrome

After 9/11, US intelligence agencies never took their eyes off the global jihadist threat. This has been true even since the Caliphate got destroyed. I always said two factors could re-ignite it—a new charismatic terrorist leader or a fresh grievance to rally around.

Hamas is more interested in a final solution than a two-state solution.

Hamas is nothing like ISIS. They are mostly peaceful political activists yearning for a two-state solution along the lines of UN resolution 242, committed to liberal values, humanitarianism and intellectual pursuits.

I am shocked to hear Hamas is anti-Semitic when Westerners on Twitter have reliably told us the terrorists are just anti-Zionist.

This is a very good question 🤔

The truth is anti-Zionism is often a convenient tool for anti-Semites. “I hate Israel, not the Jews,” they say as they publicly question why Israel responds to the most gruesome terrorist attack since international terrorism began in the early 1970s. This doesn’t mean that all…

This thread describes today’s climate in higher education for Jewish faculty,

HAMAS:

Every Israeli Jew is an occupier who should be killed.

WORLD:

Why won’t Israel agree to a two-state solution with Hamas?

I respect the honesty of this Tweet. Most Israel haters around the world know the terrorists in Gaza, West Bank & Lebanon oppose any sized Israeli state. They want Israel to die & would be happy for the Jews to die too or go elsewhere except the Mideast where so many came from.

I agree, Hamas energized the global jihad.
