This is Atara Serwatien. She was born and raised in Texas. She recently relocated to Jerusalem and now promotes Jewish settler terrorism. She says Christian churches in Jerusalem should be destroyed or converted into synagogues. She calls for open slaughter of civilians.
How does anyone, let alone Christians still support this?âŹď¸ Something is very wrong.

Itâs weird how normalized this is.
If a bunch of random dudes with giant beards and silly hats and black clothes just showed up out of nowhere one day and started ordering us to start foreign wars, we would all flip out, like who the fuck are these guys?

A young blonde woman with an American accent in Israel says that all the Arabs must be kicked out of Gaza because it is "our land" since "God commanded us to take it."
The Palestinians should be kicked out to any other Arab state, she continues, except Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria, "because they are ours."
"Or we will kill them," she adds
Can we stop pretending that this is a marginal view in Israel? That these are the comments of a fringe minority?
They are not. Israel has been on this path for quite some time.
Western governments know it fully - yet they continue to fund and enable Israel's genocidal policies.

Crazy how much of US policy at this point is basically trying to embed permanent subsidies to the Israel Lobby into critical parts of the bureaucracy:
HUGE milestone for our @pepperdine University Master of Middle East Policy Studies program: MMEPS is the only Middle East studies program approved by the Department of State for the reimagined Pickering, Rangel & Payne Fellowships, America's flagship pathways into the U.S. Foreign Service.
For the first time, State has published a short list of approved programs, all in Washington, chosen for their alignment with American foreign policy & the needs of the Foreign Service.
For a program just two years old, this is a serious affirmation of what our @PepperdineSPP team has built in Washington, DC with our @WashInstitute partners.
A true honor, in this amazing country, for the Department of State to trust Pepperdine with a part in preparing "America's Next Great Diplomats."
For potential students: you apply to the State Department fellowship & to the Pepperdine degree program at the same time.
MMEPS applications for Fall 2027 are already open, so start there TODAY:
publicpolicy.pepperdine.edu/âŚ
The Department of State fellowship application opens in December & closes in January, it is highly competitive. More info, here: careers.state.gov/americas-nâŚ
The selected Department of State fellows will receive tuition plus a $33,000 stipend, two summer internships & a path into the Foreign Service. You must be a U.S. citizen with a 3.2 GPA & pass the Foreign Service Officer Test first (so take it literally at the next opportunity!).

1) Targeting occupation soldiers on occupied land is not terrorism by any definition
2) In response, Israel is destroying homes of completely unrelated people, a war crime according to international law

Iâve been trying to get to Hebron for the past 24 hours, but almost every checkpoint and gate across the West Bank has been shut down by the occupation
Palestinians in the West Bank are locked inside their own villages (and some are unable to get home)
A war is coming to the West Bank
Yesterday Palestinian resistance fighters conducted a surgical strike against Israeli occupation soldiers, fully in accordance with international law.
In response, Israeli government immediately announced that they will do war crimes and started doing war crimes.
All the Palestinian villages in the West Bank are under siege, the city of Hebron is under siege. IDF is demolishing house after house, raiding family after family. They said they want to turn Hebron into Rafah.
More than 250 families were kicked out into the streets with nothing. People slept on the street last night.
The Israeli election is in 3 days, and the Netanyahu-Smotrich government is going to use this to start a war in the West Bank.
The only way to stop this is pressure from all directions. We know it works. International pressure worked for the besieged house in Qusra, which still belongs to the Palestinians because of the all-around attention. It can work for Hebron too.
But it will require EVERYONE reading this doing everything they can to stop this. Call your representative, hold a demonstration, organise direct action against the occupationâs assets abroad. Keep attention on the West Bank.
ACT NOW.

Just before POTUS exited the Iran Nuclear Deal in 2018, Mr. Macron insisted before the U.S. Congress that "France won't leave the JCPOA, because we signed it."
Today, he claims he always opposed "any form of nuclear activity" in Iran.
Get your story straight, Mr. President.

Saudi Arabia and the UAE set up multi-billion slush funds for Jared Kushner to use.

I obtained 140 pages of internal State Department emails from when I was being imprisoned and interrogated by the IDF. The correspondence reveals that U.S. officials referred to me as âkidnappedâ by the Israeli military while explicitly refusing to consider me "wrongfully detained." Officials were informed of day-long interrogations and made aware of my detention in a notoriously abusive Israeli prison. The emails show no U.S. effort to intervene on my behalf, only a focus on PR and limiting political fallout.

Effective Immediately, all organizations using PHP for their systems are advised to be prepared for an update addressing two critical vulnerabilities. PHP is widely used for web applications. These vulnerabilities often provide a direct path to the server's file system or database. If an immediate update is not feasible, it is recommend that organizations take the system offline until it can be fully mitigated. NSA will follow up shortly with more specific guidance.

Today, Brad Lander, rabbis, and other New Yorkers accompanied Palestinian farmers during the olive harvest. For that, they were detained by the Israeli government.Â
Harvesting olives is not illegal. The occupation is.
I am thankful that Brad has been released. But other New Yorkers remain detained, and they must be released immediately.
The same Israeli government detaining them has committed a horrific genocide against Palestinians, killing more than 74,000 people over the last few years alone.Â
The detention of these New Yorkers must end. The occupation must end. The genocide must end.

Iâve been detained by the IDF, along with a group of rabbis & volunteers. We were simply harvesting olives in a grove near Nehalim in the West Bank.
The occupation is a crime under international law. Harvesting olives isnât a crime under any law I know.
