🧵A
@CAMERAorg
investigation into
@BrownUniversity
has discovered a pattern and practice of indoctrinating students in hatred and extremism at its Center for Middle East Studies.
Here is a thread of some examples.
Read the full report here:
At a time of so much heartbreak already, it hurts even more to have to share that Orya's body was found this morning.
May her memory be a blessing.
Let us work toward justice for her and all other victims of Palestinian terror. Never again.
All it took for Spain to recognize "Palestine" was for the Palestinians to murder, rape, behead, torture, mutilate, and kidnap 1400+ Israelis. Obviously, that showed they were ready for responsible statehood, or something.
This is what happened to my cousin Oriya. Palestinian terrorists shot and killed the driver as they tried to escape the festival. She tried to run, only to be murdered 100m from the car.
This wasn't collateral damage. This was the deliberate, gleeful massacre of civilians.
Who better to denounce wars of aggression than Israel, who since its very birth, has had to fight repeated defensive wars, often against superior forces massively aided by the Soviet Union, and still today is facing threats to its sovereignty and right to exist, like Ukraine.
I don't know. I'd say we did a pretty good job defending it in 1947-49, 1967, 1973, the intifadas, 2008-09, 2012, 2014, and 2021, and every day in between.
Here's
@CNN
citing him just 8 days ago for the claim that the IDF killed 2 women in the maternity ward.
You know, the same maternity ward the
@IDF
showed video of them finding weapons in, including inside incubators.
The network needs to learn from this.
🚨 BREAKING: Ahmed al-Kahlout, Head of Gaza's Kamal Adwan Hospital, reveals Hamas used facility as a terror base:
”I know 16 employees in the hospital — doctors, nurses, paramedics and clerks — who also have different positions in the Qassam Brigades."
"They [Hamas] hide in
Only 12% of American Jews say they prefer an immediate, unconditional ceasefire, and yet I'd venture a guess that those 12% get about 75-90% of the airtime at
@MSNBC
.
Poll: 81% of American Jews support Israel's military operation to “recover all Israeli hostages and remove Hamas from power.” Only 12% of respondents said they preferred “an immediate ceasefire." Only a quarter of young Jews prefer an immediate ceasefire.
Absolutely bizarre wording from
@CNNI
. Compare how it described two shooting incidents.
Israelis "shoot and kill" Palestinian.
Israeli car "received...gunshots" from mysterious, unnamed sources and the occupants were "killed in that crash."
1/ A thread on the apartheid libel and the claim that there is a "growing" consensus. A consensus of who? Consider the crazy coincidence that so many prominent members of this "consensus" have a history of antisemitism and denying the right of the Jewish state to exist.
Translation: "Today, I introduced a resolution that recasts a failed war against the Jewish state as one in which those who launched it were actually the victims because they failed to annihilate the Jewish nation just a few years after the Holocaust."
Today, I introduced a resolution recognizing the Nakba (catastrophe), where 400 Palestinian towns and villages were destroyed, over 700,000 Palestinians uprooted from their homes, and made refugees.
Your daily reminder that
@AlJazeera
is a state-controlled propaganda agency.
Bear that in mind not just when hearing claims from AJ, but also when hearing from former Al Jazeera personnel later hired by western media outlets like
@MSNBC
.
Quite amusing. Hamas mouthpiece and Qatar-owned Al-Jazeera interview a Palestinian who blames Qatar, Turkey, and Israel for the casualties in the war. The reporter realizes what's happening and cuts the interview off.
55 years ago today, Israel defended itself against an overwhelming force while EU states watched, just a couple decades after trying to annihilate their own Jewish populations.
It's the nice thing about Israel. We don't need to care if Europeans think we should live or not.
1/5An article in the Jerusalem Post on 1 June 2022 erroneosuly suggests that Ambassador Sven Kühn von Burgsdorff, Head of the EU Office to West Bank and Gaza Strip, justified acts of violence and terror.

Yes, yes. The UN and all of its assorted agencies and special programmes ALL have "systems in place" for "transparency."
By the way, whatever happened to the UN Procurement Task Force? How's UN accountability for the Haiti cholera outbreak going?
Horrified by today’s killing of a Palestinian man, Ammar Mifleh, during a scuffle with an Israeli soldier near Huwarra in the o. West Bank. My heartfelt condolences to his bereaved family. Such incidents must be fully & promptly investigated, & those responsible held accountable.
*Makes list of Jews to target, you know, like a Nazi would do

"[T]he [NLRB] dismissal letter found that the decision to relocate the position predated the employee's actions."
Basically undercuts her entire claim.
It's like a form of Stockholm Syndrome. While much of the Arab world is moving on from hatred and open discrimination against Jews/Israelis, some, like this
@cnn
producer, seem giddy that there are holdouts still openly harassing and discriminating against Jews/Israelis.
@FranceskAlbs
Just last week you cried "smear campaign" at outrage over obviously antisemitic remarks that even the speaker himself admitted were "perceived and experienced to be antisemitic."
Excuse us if we don't wait for a few dead Jews to satisfy your fake morality.
There's a lot to be said about outlets who will call all those celebrating Jerusalem Day "extremists," but every time a bunch of young Palestinian men pile rocks and fireworks inside and start pissing on the roof of Al Aqsa Mosque, they're called "worshippers."
NPR was worse - they called the thousands of Israeli citizens celebrating Jerusalem Day - “Israeli extremists “ - I guess that includes Israel’s president and prime minister. No mention of Hamas and PA calls to engage in violence against Israelis. No shame - biased journalis.
It's not talked about enough how the major "human rights" organizations aren't actually human rights organizations. They're ideological organizations coasting on the credibility they once had decades ago.
The one redeeming feature of social media these days is how
@UNRWA
keeps getting bodied by community notes. These people are used to only having to deal with willfully ignorant and complicit audiences, but the narrative falls apart with the slightest bit of pushback.
"I am horrified at the smear campaigns that target Palestinians and those who provide aid to them."

After an attack on a synagogue, I see "Islamophobia" trending instead of

The antisemites are winning in excluding, othering, and dehumanizing us.
You're about to hear some ugly & vicious Islamophobia & anti-Muslim bigotry this weekend from elected officials, commentators and even mainstream media. Hope I'm wrong. People will use it to divide Jewish and Muslim communities for their political agenda. Don't fall for it.

"The high-minded rhetoric against Israel isn’t in service of human rights... [I]t is about delegitimizing the Jewish state."
In case anyone was wondering,
@CNNPR
's website still hasn't said a single word about Mahmoud Abbas's antisemitic rant.
To put this in context, during July, they wrote 15 articles and over 15,000 words *just* on Israel's judicial reform alone.
1/ A brief, illustrative thread on how bad
@CNN
has become.
Combining false claims w/ skewed context & hyper-partisan (and antisemitic) commentators, its latest piece is a perfect display of the network's increasingly open bias & unreliability.
What you're allowed to say at the
@UN
:
"social media that is controlled largely by whether it’s the Jewish Lobby..."
What you're not allowed to say:
"indiscriminate rocket fire of Islamic Jihad...is condemned"
Wait until he discovers how Hamas, PFLP, Islamic Jihad, the Palestinian Authority, Palestinian textbooks, and Palestinian organizations refer to Israel.
Prominent pro-Israel activist puts Palestine in quote marks which tells you everything about the near-genocidal and racist mindset in some segments of the pro-Israel community. See, as Golda Meir once said, the Palestinians don't actually exist. That's their actual belief.
It took
@cnnpr
six hours to update a claim that was based entirely on the word of Hamas, an internationally designated terrorist organization.
Completely irresponsible.
Update: Hundreds are likely dead after a blast hit a Gaza hospital. The IDF has “categorically” denied any involvement, blaming instead a “failed rocket launch” by the Palestinian Islamic Jihad group.
The largest massacre of Jews since the Holocaust. Women, children, elderly kidnapped and executed. Palestinians celebrating in the streets.
And yet
@MSNBC
brings on terror-apologist Shibley Telhami to say this is really about *Palestinian* "despair."
New law of war for the Jews-only edition just dropped: if you can't provide the name, age, affiliation, ID number, blood type, mother's maiden name, and favorite color of the guys holding the guns and shooting at you, they're civilians.
If you don’t know the name and affiliation of the person who you say is a terrorist, how are we supposed to believe you were targeting said terrorist? I think the IDF is so used killing innocent people with impunity that they don’t even have to have a story that makes sense in

@UN_HRC
"expert" is erasing context, ignoring history, and inventing bizarre theories of international law to justify the unjustifiable and paint a narrative of pure Israeli evil and pure Palestinian innocence.
@EFischberger
Missing piece of thr puzzle: Israel maintains an army into the Palestinian territory, and supports about 800k "settlers" in this territory. It is not an equal relationship.
The new
@UN
report released today by Michael Lynk is, as one would expect, completely divorced from the law and facts. It's also blatantly antisemitic.
Lynk sees Israel as "covetous" alien Jews with a "fever dream" of "population control."
It's going to be really awkward for them when they lose in November and realize that they sold their souls (and their moral principles and friends) for nothing.

3/ It's not just coincidence that the voices suddenly promoting the "apartheid" libel have histories of antisemitism, like
@dpaulobrien
believing a Jewish state has no right to exist or
@KenRoth
victim blaming Jews for antisemitism and mocking their beliefs as "primitive."
2/ Today,
@MichaelLynk5
's sole response to being called out over his antisemitic rhetoric was to cite a single, washed up, fringe token. He didn't even bother trying to explain why he employed obvious hateful tropes of "covetous" Jews b/c he knows the "human rights" industry.
@asymmetricinfo
Aside from everything else wrong with this tweet, if your reaction is "Well she's a Jew and lives and works with Jews, so stirring up angry mobs is fine," then I have a few thousand years worth of Jewish history for you to read about.
Today symbolically captures the reality of the conflict.
Israel hosted Arab leaders to advance shared security and cooperation.
Palestinian groups celebrated an ISIS-linked terror attack.
Peace will come when they want it. But we will not stop & wait for them in the meantime.
I think it's important to note that many Palestinian militant factions have published statements praising the ISIS-inspired terror attack tonight. By praising today's and last week's attacks, these organizations are showing how like-minded they are when it comes to terror.
@CNNPR
@Vonquizu
The dishonesty of the article is even worse.
@CNN

@CNN
has now corrected both its written and video report falsely claiming that the terrorist Fatima Shahin was never charged.
5/ Nor is it a coincidence that Noura Erakat thinks Zionism is racism, and that Richard Falk posts antisemitic cartoons and endorses books that ask whether "Hitler might have been right after all."
4/ It's not just a coincidence
@btselem
employed and defended a Holocaust denier and frequently classifies genocidal Jew-hating terrorists as "civilians," and that
@philipluther
sees only nefarious conspiracies behind every action of the Jewish state.
A brazen lie that it was "not stopped by the Israeli govt" (there were many arrests). Also deafening silence re: the recent antisemitic riots and violent assaults, stoked by PA & Hamas. Even in Jaffa they chanted "In spirit and blood we shall redeem al-Aqsa." Shame on Tlaib.
During the holy month of Ramadan, Palestinians are met w/ mobs of Israeli settlers calling on the “death of Arabs!” The anti-Palestinian violence was not stopped by the Israeli govt. These acts of hate is what colleagues need to see when I say Palestinians deserve human dignity.
Absolute clown shoes.
@FranceskAlbs
says Israel could've asked UN to demilitarize Hamas.
Recall that the UN promised Hezbollah would be disarmed and southern Lebanon cleansed of them, but 17 years later, Hezbollah is also firing on Israeli civilians.
Israel has been widely condemned for its heavy retaliation on Hamas after the attack on October 7.

Given all the claims that the killing of Jews in a synagogue on Friday was "self-defense," it's worth pointing out that 76 years ago, Palestinian leadership (Emile Ghoury) also called the Grand Mufti's collaboration with the Nazis "a natural stand taken in self-defense."

Good statement, but why ask for an apology? Does anyone seriously think someone who has repeatedly delivered lengthy antisemitic rants over many years is suddenly going to earnestly apologize and atone for his bigotry this time? Why should we fool ourselves?
I am appalled by President Abbas’ hateful, antisemitic remarks at a recent Fatah meeting. The speech maligned the Jewish people, distorted the Holocaust, and misrepresented the tragic exodus of Jews from Arab countries. I condemn these statements and urge an immediate apology.
Pay attention to and remember who are making these definitive statements so quickly.
It may turn out to have been an Israeli bullet. Perhaps even shot with malice towards Akleh.
But to immediately make these definitive claims betrays a disdain for the truth.
When will the world and those who stand by Apartheid Israel that continues to murder, torture and commit war crimes finally say: "Enough"?
Shireen Abu Akleh was murdered by a government that receives unconditional funding by our country with zero accountability.
Interesting to note that top
@amnesty
officials like

have a pattern of casually dismissing inconvenient empirical data in order to attack Israel. Amnesty is guided by antisemitic ideology, not facts.
@KreaseChan
@CAMERAorg
Now that we have your attention, perhaps someone from
@amnesty
could finally address some of those blatant factual errors I pointed out directly to your colleague, which suggest your organization is knowingly lying or doesn't actually understand the law.
I like how this statement says "There is no room for the denial of Palestinian existence" while also celebrating the chant "From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free" - a chant for the denial of Israeli existence.
These folks aren't principled. They're just bigots.
Hi
@mehdirhasan
- if the PA's forensic team cannot yet determine who fired the bullet, how can you determine that it was Israeli fire? Do you have access to information Dr. Rayyan Al Ali does not?

Check it out:
1/ With respect to the author, this thread is both ahistorical and entirely unhelpful.
Suggesting that Israel alone should explain a plan for the West Bank while in the same breath mentioning Gaza displays a lack of historical awareness.
Jews should have left Gaza ages ago as there is no compelling Jewish Claim on the land.
Israel should explain a plan for the West Bank. If two state solutions are dead, what follows? I can’t understand this. I’m lost. This is unethical & untenable.
No harassment by settlers.
We agree with Rep. Nadler. It should be absolutely clear that one can hold progressive values, strongly support the State of Israel, and also criticize policies of the Israeli government. Any litmus test that implies otherwise is harmful and wrong.
The background of this guy, and how the
@nytimes

@PatrickKingsley
whitewashed him, can be found in this great piece by
@GileadIni

This is the kind of hatred and incitement NYT readers rarely hear about, if ever.
According to the language of the
