Those Whom G*d Wishes...

These Israeli kids are playing the vaccination game.

The teachers pretend to vaccinate them, and then the kids are told to take their masks off and celebrate.

What of the Christians in the Holy Land?

A Levantine-Greek perspective:

"This situation affects Romaïoi because the Jewish and Islamic aspirations to monopolize power over the Holy Land automatically strip Christians of their historical rights in it." - President of the Romaïan Cultural Society. https://t.co/D8nN1dfD0z

Who Owns Hungary?

Hungary condemns in the strongest terms the latest missile attacks against Israeli cities. We demonstrate our full solidarity with Israel and recognise her right to self-defense. The senseless and indiscriminate violence against civilians must stop immediately. 🇭🇺🇮🇱 https://t.co/93VJXt85j9

"Anti-Semitism"

The IHRA guidelines make it perfectly clear that it is fine to criticise Israel as one would any other state, but not insofar as it perceived as a Jewish collectivity. In view of centuries of persecution of Jews, denial they need a homeland for security is surely anti Semitic. https://t.co/UA7KtFSJD2

Cucking on Free Speech

The Network Contagion Research Institute has published an important report on the online dissemination of anti-Semitic disinformation. Here's the text to the Foreword I wrote to the report.https://t.co/UwaGzMfTtH

Hm?

As Israel shifts from "start-up nation" to "impact nation," it's important to keep tabs on who's funding those social impact summits - hint, quite a presence from Switzerland (banks, blockchain, UN). Interactive version here. https://t.co/GDPJU5IMO1 pic.twitter.com/dhnn80ikGe

When Tikkun Olam "repair the world" intersects with "start-up nation" (military origins) and "impact nation." We have to consider how much "repair" can be done with apps and wearable tech.

Why, Indeed?

Azerbaijani-Israeli relations are based on a bargain that involves weapons, oil, and lobbying in Washington. ICYMI @EldarMamedov4 : https://t.co/8tECGhptuy

Did It Surprise Anyone Else?

This is pretty inexcusable, and I say this as someone who thinks Bibi is one of the greatest leaders the Jewish people has had. If Mexico can wait, so can Israel — for whose sake Trump defied all international opinion to move the embassy. https://t.co/MmQ5anIrZf

Neocons and Armenia

By stoking a visceral hatred of Armenians – because that is how modern Azerbaijani nationalism expresses itself – these Washington neocons would endanger one of the last remaining Christian communities in the Middle East. https://t.co/AtMNNrMcvC

Something Positive for Francis

Netanyahu: Yeah we know Jesus, he spoke Hebrew

Pope Francis: Aramaic pic.twitter.com/gXjxdOY6hJ

— Catholic Arena (@CatholicArena) October 27, 2020

But I bet Francis missed this:

Notes
1-Jesus didn't "speak" either; Hebrew & Aramaic were languages for the learned. Pple spoke (as today) dialects; Jesus prob. spoke a Galilean one.

2-Netanyahu did not call Jesus by his Heb. name יהושע (Yehoshua) or ישוע, but by ישו "Yeshu" used to stress foreignness. https://t.co/Hc8E1Ugasz

The Quincy Institute

Bacevich again fails to mention Israel at all in spite of that country’s enormous influence over the U.S. electoral process through the political donations provided by dual loyalty billionaires Adelson & Haim Saban to Republicans & Democrats respectively. https://t.co/GcuOJMHOxq

— Philip Giraldi (@philipgiraldi) July 28, 2020

Bacevich has clearly indicated that there will be red lines, that the @QuincyInst won’t focus on highlighting pro-Israel orgs or donors. In other words, it will not criticize Israel’s Lobby as a driving element in America’s interventionist foreign policy. https://t.co/aT6fRxqBDw
