Silence is complicity; indifference is enabling. The opposite of love is not hate, it’s indifference. www.jewishnews.co.uk/opinion-indi...

This is incredibly difficult to read. I beg you to do everything you can to read it. Share it widely. The world doesn’t get to stay ignorant about the barbarity of Hamas. Hostages were chained, starved, kept in pitch black; some return almost unresponsive www.timesofisrael.com/hostages-wer...

Kibbutz Nir Oz, where the Bibas family resided, released a statement on Friday night saying that Israeli hostage Shiri Bibas was murdered in Gaza during her captivity.

Yarden Bibas (Ariel and Kfir's father) has asked that the world know the full story of his babies' deaths. Do him the respect of reading and sharing their story, of what happened to them in October 2023. And then ask why they were not returned until now and why the world is so silent about this.

Dear sweet @elissakw.bsky.social , know you aren’t alone in any of your feels. We are with you, holding you and each other. I don’t quite know how but I have to believe that we will prevail. open.substack.com/pub/neveralo...

As Jews, we must unequivocally condemn the idea of forcibly expelling all of Gaza’s residents and bringing the territory under U.S. "ownership". As Canadians, we must stand up for our values of democracy, equality, and freedom. Tell your MP to condemn this plan. www.jspacecanada.ca/no_displacem...

Let’s hope the judge does the right thing in sentencing and doesn’t let this 💩 get off easy. Jewish Threads ottawacitizen.com/news/eganvil...

In this blog, @rbreich.bsky.social lists many ways (complete with “how-to” instructions of actions we can all take to combat the forces of Trumpian repression and neofascism. Please share widely. open.substack.com/pub/robertre...

Thank you for, URJ, for this clear statement, which is a matter of human rights and basic decency. Reform Leadership Responds to President Trump’s Recent Comments on Gaza url:https://urj.org/press-room/reform-leadership-responds-president-trumps-recent-comments-gaza

Each week it’s as though @elissakw.bsky.social looks deep into my soul and writes from its depths. open.substack.com/pub/neveralo...

I love multi-use items!

Another wonderful article by @elissakw.bsky.social , this time about one of my favourite senators, @wyden.senate.gov !!! open.substack.com/pub/neveralo...

I love love love @elissakw.bsky.social blogs and this one is no exception. I believe there is a place for us progressive, leftist, proud Jews. You are not alone on the ice floe, Elissa - there are others of us out there with you. open.substack.com/pub/neveralo...

I posted this 8 years ago today. I can’t (or maybe I can, which is infinitely sadder) believe I have to repost.

Four more beautiful souls coming home this Shabbat. We need them all home. Now. Shabbat Shalom. #bringthemallhomenow.

An important PSA from my incredible cousin!

The swastika is a weapon of hate that directly attacks 🇨🇦’s core values and cannot be normalized. Sign our petition calling on the government to ban the public display of the Nazi swastika and all Nazi iconography in 🇨🇦, once and for all. www.bnaibrith.ca/nazi-swastik...

I mean, if we actually had a space laser it would be the best. This is ingenuous! An 'Iron Dome' to stop wildfires: Israeli startup's 'FireDome' is based on missile defense www.timesofisrael.com/israeli-star...
