For new followers, I'm on this platform since 2009 posting about Jewish/Israeli stuff, but be prepared, I also post about pro-cycling. If you are not interested in those posts (or the inverse), scroll by. There is little joy over the past 18 months, but we find it where we can. For me, it's in this sport.

Thanks to all the new followers. Please read my pinned post. I post about Israeli/Jewish issues and also about my pro cycling (road, cross, track, whatever) fandom. If one of these doesn't interest you scroll by. I live in a post October 7th Israel, in Jerusalem.

Bennett’s security doubled as he faces threats, attack plots before election timesofisrael.com/bennetts-s… This campaign is the nastiest in a long time with Bibi-ists making death threats. We've seen this before & have seen the ravages of political assassination. Bad enough a Likud member shouting at a former hostage "I wish I could send you back to Gaza " (her husband was murdered by Hamas, but she survived captivity). Bibi is desperate, mean, nastier. Making promises, breaking them the next day. He will bring the draft dodging Shas & UTJ into his fold again. No respect for reservists or surivivors or October 7th. I voted Likud once. No more. Time for change.

Yes. For centuries European and other diaspora Jews sent funds through the organized Halukka system to support coreligionists in the Land of Israel. Under Ottoman and earlier Muslim rule those communities faced chronic poverty, jizya poll tax, extra levies, and bribes. The donations covered taxes, debts, and basic needs for scholars and the poor in the holy cities, helping prevent starvation and communal collapse.

This was under the British Mandate when Jews were referred to as Palestinians and Arabs referred to as Arabs and were the colonizers along with the British.
This article is from 1926... Wait! The Moslem supreme council begins Arab... WHAT??!

France has FREE health care, paid parental leave, paid family leave, FREE child care, FREE preschool, 5 weeks paid vacation, a 35 hour work week, generous unemployment and housing benefits, and heavily subsidized higher education. Everything the left says they want AND THEY'RE STILL PROTESTING AND BURNING SHIT DOWN.

I wrote about this in @TimesofIsrael in 2014 & no one cared then & no one cares now. blogs.timesofisrael.com/la-d… from March 2014 just before I made aliyah.
Don’t stop talking about the mass slaughter of Christians by Islamists in Nigeria.

No, it's not a gay dance party on Fire Island, although there's nothing wrong with that. LGB here so I can make gay jokes. These are survivors of a fake genocide & famine partyng their asses off without women. Every night in Gaza.
Additional documentation from the genocide in Gaza — the most horrific genocide in history 💔 The reason mainstream media doesn't air this is the mental toll of watching it, which is completely understandable.

Some facts about Paula Abdul: 1. Syrian Jew 2. Bat Mitzvah (belated) in Israel in 2013 3. Debut album in 1988 (El Sayid was born in 1984).
2018. While running for Governor, Abdul El-Sayed says that his parents chose the name Abdul because Paula Abdul was popular at the time.

I will bet this guy has no idea what the definition of Zionism is and is just using "Zionists" as a euphemism for Jews because he's too much of a coward to just say what he means. If he truly believes that Jews control all of this, he is incredibly stupid.
The problem is not with the European Union; the problem is that the Zionists control the European Union. The problem is not with the United States; the problem is that the Zionists control the United States. The problem is not with the United Nations; the problem is that the Zionists control the United Nations. The problem is not with the people, the problem is that the Zionists control the system.

Una socorrista israelí declaró a la CNN: «Hamás le cortó la mano a una niña de 8 años. Durante horas, permaneció tendida en su propia sangre, temblando. Completamente sola. Para cuando llegamos hasta ella, estaba dando sus últimos suspiros». Estos son los salvajes con los que estamos tratando... Susan Sarandon? Creo en la autodeterminación de los pueblos

If you think the violent, destructive riots currently going on in France and several other European countries are “student protests” about “classroom conditions” or “the cost of living”, you’re as stupid as the mainstream media thinks you are.

‼️🔎REVEALED: An internal document belonging to Hamas detailing plans to plant explosive devices in areas of displaced persons camps in Gaza. The document shows that Hamas' engineering department proposed planting explosive devices around displaced persons camps and detonating them as IDF troops approached, placing the civilian population in the camps at risk, in order to create panic as a smokescreen for the escape of its operatives. This was part of Hamas’ preparations to protect its leadership and operatives, while endangering and exploiting the civilian population in the area, fully aware that these actions were likely to cause direct harm to civilians.

Pro-Netanyahu pundit calls Sephardic Eisenkot a ‘monkey;’ critics decry it as a racist slur timesofisrael.com/pro-netany… via @timesofisrael Well, it is a racist slur in the way he used it. Just read the article. So in the past 2 weeks, a Bibi-ist yelled at an 88 year old Hamas hostage survivor that he wished he could "return her to Gaza" & now this. This is desperation on the part of Likud. It is mean, it is disgusting.

In the name of a country and ethnicity that doesn't even exist but was created as a terrorist entity with the goal to destroy Israel. Now the west can see what Palestinianism is.
Francia fue el primer país del G7 en reconocer Palestina y ahora le queman las calles en nombre de Palestina.
