What do all of these images have in common? They show the same Hezbollah playbook: embedding military infrastructure in civilian areas. Homes. Schools. Neighborhoods. Places where children live and play. Hezbollah continues to put the entire region in harmโ€™s way. ๐Ÿ“ท @AJCGlobal
The Jewish story defies history. Most peoples exiled from their homeland eventually disappear. They assimilate, lose their identity, and fade into another story. But not the Jewish people. For nearly 2,000 years, Jews were scattered across the world yet never forgot who they weโ€ฆ

.@scooterbraun could have stayed quiet. In today's climate, silence is the safe choice. He didn't stay quiet. Instead, he used his voice and his platform to speak out against antisemitism and shine a light on the horrors of the Nova Music Festival - and in doing so, he learnedโ€ฆ

The position of Head of Hamas' Military Wing has become one of the shortest tenures in the Middle East. In the last two weeks alone, the role has changed hands twice - following the elimination of Izz al-Din al-Haddad and then Mohammed Odeh by the @IDF in rapid succession. At tโ€ฆ

Over a third of all the lives lost on October 7th were young people at the Nova Music Festival. Think about that for a moment. Festival goers. Music lovers. Kids in their 20s who showed up to dance and left in body bags. If this had happened anywhere else, the world would haveโ€ฆ

Archaeologists from @AntiquitiesIL have recently discovered an ancient tunnel just outside of Jerusalem - believed to be hundreds, possibly thousands of years old - and nobody knows what it was used for. A secret escape route? A hiding place during one of Jerusalem's many siegesโ€ฆ
For 738 days in Hamas captivity, Alon Ohel survived the unimaginable - and he did it, in part, by holding onto music. No instrument. No audience. Just melodies playing in his mind, carrying him through the darkness one note at a time. ๐ŸŽฅ @Ron_Prosor

.@havivrettiggur puts it simply and powerfully - Jews have never been persecuted because of who we are, but because of who others needed us to be. Medieval moneylenders. 20th century communists. Today's imperialists. The costume changes with every era - but the scapegoating neveโ€ฆ
