"The instrument assumes anti-Zionist attitudes are antisemitic before it begins measuring, then discovers widespread antisemitism. The circularity is structural."

When I Was John Fetterman | The Nation
They will claim, with all the comforts of hindsight, that it was impossible to see clearly how bad it would get. But they will be lying. It was clear to some of us from the very start.
This is about how a staffer saw her Progressive Democrat boss turn into a Genocidal Zionist Zealot.
And so we suffer, the world over, the consequences of a lazy and self-absorbed Democratic party dead-set on “playing dead.” Elected officials who would rather become the villain than take off the cape altogether. When Kamala Harris lost the 2024 election, I was not surprised in the slightest. After all, who was left but the hacks, centrists, and grifters to work her campaign? The rest of us, “the groups” as Jentleson nebulously put it, the “magical thinkers,” the purists who simply could not stomach slaughtering 66,000 and counting were told, in so many words, to put up or shut up. The Fettermans of the world have cut off their own feet, and then gleefully rolled about on the floor, wondering why on earth they cannot walk.
It is full of great insights.
Look no further than Zohran Mamdani’s historic win to see proof that one need not sacrifice Palestinians or trans people at the altar of political expediency; that one can be a proud, self-identifying Democratic Socialist and pull off the greatest political upset in a generation not in spite, but because of it. In fact, contrary to the stagnant center-right philosophy of complacency, the only way to sustain political faith is by being for something in the first place.

#ApartheidIsrael: Murder & Halting #Food
Israel carried out a wave of deadly attacks in Gaza over the weekend and temporarily halted aid deliveries, but Israel is now saying it will resume enforcement of the U.S.-brokered ceasefire. Israel had accused Hamas of killing two Israeli soldiers in Rafah, but there are reports the soldiers died when their bulldozer ran over unexploded ordnance. Officials in Gaza say Israel has killed at least 97 Palestinians and injured 230 since the ceasefire came into effect on October 10. On Friday, Israeli forces fired a tank shell, killing 11 members of a Palestinian family in the Zeitoun neighborhood of Gaza City. The dead included three women and seven children between the ages of 5 and 13. Israel also bombed the headquarters of the Palestine Media Production Company in central Gaza, killing broadcast engineer Ahmed Abu Matar. His colleague, Ajeb Mohammed, described the attack. Ajeb Mohammed: “We were sitting here safe and sound. And as you can see, the place is closed off to us. No one enters or leaves. We are all journalists. No strangers were entering or staying with us. Then the bombing happened right next to us, in the middle of the chalet. Our colleague, the broadcasting engineer, was martyred, and our colleague’s child son was also martyred.”
Happy Yom Kippur, 2-3 October, 2025, for all of my Jewish friends who are celebrating! ✡️
