Yesterday marked the second time this past year that a recent University of Washington graduate was killed in 🇮🇱🇵🇸. On Oct. 7, Hayim Katsman was killed by Hamas. And yesterday, Aysenur Eygi was killed by the IDF. Both were US citizens, working in different ways towards peace.

NEW: Hospitals around the US are using inaccurate pee-in-a-cup drug tests to report new mothers to child protective services, prompting investigations and even the removal of newborns from their families over false positive results. My latest: themarshallproject.org/2024/09/09/dru…

A must read by ⁦Mical Raz⁩ and ⁦Naftali Kaminski⁩ If we want to support Israel, create peace, and save the hostages, stop supporting Netanyahu. apple.news/AfgINkCAETiqE2…

American Jewish organizations are complicit in the harm Netanyahu is causing Israel. It’s time they listen to Israelis and not the craven politicians sacrificing lives to cling onto power. With Naftali Kaminski in Haaretz.com

התאומים גלי וזיו ברמן מציינים היום את יום הולדתם ה-27, בעודם בשבי. השניים עבדו כתאורנים בפסטיגל, וחבריהם לעבודה הכינו סרטון שקורא לשובם: נופר משה פרדו

כשראיתי את סרטון המנהרה המזעזע שכולכם תראו החל מהערב, לא יכולתי שלא לדמיין את כרמל שם. היא כמעט בגובה שלי. בטח 1.74 מטר. אין סיכוי שהיא יכולה לעמוד שם זקופה. חשבתי על המחנק ועל הטינופת, על החושך והחום שמוציא מהדעת - ולא יכולתי לסבול את המחשבה שהם שרדו את מרתף העינויים הזה.

In insisting on uncritical support for Israel's actions, and in stark contrast to Israelis protesting deaths of hostages whom the gov't could have saved, U.S. Jews are bolstering Israel's worst enemy – Netanyahu | Opinion | Mical Raz & Naftali Kaminski haaretz.com/opinion/2024-0…

Ok this might be the weirdest story I’ve ever reported on, involving: • A totally fabricated “exclusive” • A suspected pro-Netanyahu influence campaign • An author whose biography is entirely made up What on earth is going on at The Jewish Chronicle ? 972mag.com/jewish-chronic…

When you have the thought "I'm so pro Israel that I'm gonna need to block the hostage families", does that not... give you a bit of pause?

הימין אוהב לטעון שהשמאל לא פעל כנגד מעצרים מנהלים של יהודים. זה שקר. תמיד פעלו ופעלנו. הנה מכתב של עוד לאה צמל נגד מעצרו של מאיר כהנא שרוחו הרעה מרחפת עתה בכל הארץ פינה

If the police in any US city had arrested Jewish women for distributing posters with the faces of our hostages, the US Jewish community would denounce this as antisemitic. But today here in Israel, three women were arrested for doing exactly that, and are now being investigated.

So I'm not even gonna link to a story about it, but I just read in the local rag that Zionists have now raised over 200K for the non-Jewish Zionist who shot a Jewish anti-Zionist in Newton, MA a few days ago. Just so we remember who is playing on which team.

New: At least two women in Georgia died after they couldn't access legal abortions and timely medical care in their state, ProPublica has found. This is one of their stories. propub.li/3N7xPgN

Abortion bans kill women. They criminalize life-saving care for pregnant patients, sacrificing their actual lives for the hypothetical interests of a fetus. A vote to ban abortion is a vote to inflict unnecessary and avoidable agony and death on women. These laws are sadistic.

Yes, Republicans passed abortion bans that are killing people. But hospital administrators are the ones choosing to OVER comply with bans and telling doctors to wait to intervene until the last possible moment, instead of saying, take care of your patients and we will back you.
