Do better @chase
I'm dying of cancer. How's @Chase treating me? A week ago, it locked my account because of an employee's clerical error. Today, it blocked a money transfer to my son because of doubts about my identity. "Do you know your son personally?" I've been asked not once today, but twice.

I’m sorry, but the global outrage about Israel ACCIDENTALLY killing seven aid workers in Gaza is totally insane and utterly antisemitic. Of course it’s a tragedy. No one denies that. Every innocent person who dies in a war is a tragedy. Every innocent German who died in WWII is also a tragedy. That being said, where the actual hell does anyone in the global community who have done nothing but criticize Israel get off thinking they have a right to come at Israel when they were silent about October 7th and all the innocent Israelis who were murdered and raped since that dark day? Seriously, the hypocrisy is truly and genuinely hard to be believe. Not a word about the murders, the massacre, the rapes, the beheadings, the burning of families alive while forcing their loved ones to watch. Not a single word about that. Not a single word about the war crimes Hamas perpetrates every single damn day from firing rockets into Israeli cities, to using human shields, to using hospitals and nurseries as terror bases. Not a single word. Silence. Crickets. But when Israel accidentally kills aid workers in a war zone that is unprecedented in its complexity, all of a sudden, they lose their sh_t? Seriously already, if you sat quiet on October 7th, you are more than welcome to sit this one out and actually stfu. How does anyone, in their right mind, justify this global condemnation of an accidental incident when they didn’t say a word about all of Hamas’ deliberate attacks on innocent civilians, both in Gaza and in Israel? What is wrong with these people? Do they have no integrity left? Zero honesty? Are they that consumed with their Jew hatred that they can’t even see straight anymore? So yes, this incident is a tragedy, a tragedy for which Israel immediately took responsibility, announced it will conduct a transparent investigation, and apologized as soon as it happened. That is what a moral country does when it screws up. Let me say this and the clearest and most unequivocal terms. Every single death, EVERY ONE, is on Hamas, its supporters, and those who elected Hamas. These tragic deaths are on Hamas, not Israel. Every Gaza killed in this war? On Hamas! Every single Israeli killed in this war? On Hamas! Every single person injured or displaced? Hamas! So Israel can conduct its investigation and Israel can apologize for messing up, but that is because Israel holds ITSELF to a higher standard! But the world holding Israel to a different standard? That’s called double standard and it’s morally and ethically bankrupt. So, yea, this story is a sad one, but it’s one that could have easily been avoided if Hamas didn’t attack Israel unprovoked on October 7th. Want to blame Israel for any of this? Go ahead but just know, your antisemitism is letting out a really bad odor. It’s not a good look for you. Want to blame the real guilty party here? Blame Hamas! This beautiful family has spent 180 days in Hamas dungeons with no access to food, medication, or sunlight. Here’s your litmus test. If you are tweeting about these 7 aid workers who Israel accidentally killed while fighting an impossible war but you have 0 tweets about this family or all the innocent hostages, don’t look now, but you have an antisemite walking in your shoes.

It appears that constant reminding is necessary. Hamas initiated this war by brutally raping, torturing, and killing 1,400 innocent Israelis, and kidnapping over 250 civilians of various nationalities, with over 130 still in captivity. Israel responded and will persist until victory, irrespective of external opinions or actions, as is their right and duty.

DISGUSTING #Oscars speech from Jonathan Glazer blaming Israel — the VICTIM — for the October 7 massacre. In the 1940s, the dehumanization of Jews led to the systematic mass murder of 6 million. In 2023, that same Jew hatred led to the mass murder of 1,200. It would have been many more if the Jewish State couldn't or didn't fight back.

Be honest. Don't think of how your response could be perceived, and answer this simple question: if this 19-year-old kidnapped by Hamas was your daughter, would you have argued that the war needs to stop for Palestinians to be able to celebrate Ramadan in peace? I'm only asking you to do what I am more than happy to do. So, here's my answer. If she was my daughter, not Ramadan, not Yom Kippur, not Moses resurrected, not Gd speaking to me on Mount Sinai, nothing would have stopped me from making sure Hamas is 100% wiped out. To the very last member of this subhuman terror group.

CUNY decided there wasn't enough antisemitism rotting within their schools so Queens College Muslim Students Associations decided to host Daniel Haqiqatjou tomorrow. How big of an antisemitic lunatic is Daniel Haqiqatjou? - he claims ISIS is Jewish - he believes Israel is behind the 9/11 attacks - he states the Israel lobby is trying to remove Islam from the U.S. - lies that Jews are stealing the organs of Palestinians Reach out to Queens College President Frank Wu to demand this antisemitic radial be kept off CUNY's campus [email protected]

The Middle East conflict 101: UN in 1947: “Here is a state for you, the Jews, and here is a state for you, the Arabs.” The Jews: “Awesome. Thanks. We’ve only been waiting for this for thousands of years.” The Arabs: “Sorry no. We’d rather attack than have a state. We don’t want a state. We want no Israel.” The Jews: “Sorry you attacked and lost.” The Arabs: “Don’t worry. We’ll be back.” The Jews: “Here. Take land. Make a state. We just want peace.” The Arabs: “No. No state. No Israel.” The Jews in 1967 (Khartoum summit): “Here. Take land. Make a state. We just want peace.” The Arabs: “No. No state. No Israel.” The Jews in 1991 (Madrid Conference): “Here. Take land. Make a state. We just want peace.” The Arabs: “No. No state. No Israel.” The Jews in 2000 (Camp David Summit): “Here. Take land. Make a state. We just want peace.” The Arabs: “No. No state. No Israel.” The Jews in 2001 (Taba Sunmit), 2005 (Disengagement), 2007 (Annapolis conference), 2008 (realignment plan), 2010, 2013 (Joint peace talks), 2019 (Bahrain workshop), 2020 (Trump peace plan): “Here. Take land. Make a state. We just want peace.” The Arabs: “No. No state. No Israel.” The world in 2024: “Let’s give them a state.” The Arabs: “No. No state. No Israel.” The Jews: “Ok, no state for you.” The world? “Those Jews!” And then there are the wars that the Arabs attacked the Jews and lost: 1948 (war of independence), 1967 (six day war), 1973 (Yom Kippur war), 1982 (Lebanon war), 1987 (first intifada), 2000 (second intifada), 2006 (second Lebanon war), 2008 (operation cast lead), 2012 (operation pillar of defense), 2014 (operation protective edge), 2021 (operation guardian of the walls), 2023 (operation swords of iron). The fact that there is a single human being on planet earth who still doesn’t get the following fact is insane and mind boggling. The Jews want peace. The Arabs who call themselves Palestinians do not. They never have. They never will. Want proof? The PLO: The Palestinian liberation organization was established on May 28th, 1964. There were no settlements then. There was no occupation. What exactly were they looking to liberate? The answer is Israel, every last inch of it. There was Arab terror against Jews well before there was any occupation. There was Arab terror against Jews before there was even a state of Israel. 1929, for example. Arabs massacred Jews in Hebron. Why? It was 1929. Israel was established in 1948. How exactly does that work? Were they massacring Jews to resist the future occupation? 😂 Anyone who thinks that offering the Palestinians a state will solve anything is a fool. Period. Full stop. It’s time the world learned Arabic. The Palestinians want dead Jews. They say it, they vote for it, they act towards it, and then they live stream it. And yes, I said Palestinian, not Hamas. The Palestinian people elected Hamas. Thousands of them participated in October 7th in one way or another. Close to 90% of the Palestinians support Hamas. The Palestinian people exist from day one for the sole purpose of destroying Israel. It’s their entire identity. They keep trying and keep failing. They don’t seem to learn their lesson and neither does the international community. Israel wants peace. Israel is willing to make compromises for peace. Israel also knows well how to handle its enemies when necessary. It has a lot of experience. If you are still reading, and disagree with anything I wrote above, kindly tell me what is inaccurate about what I said and if you can’t, if you agree with the facts I listed here, tell me please how, in 2024, after October 7th, anyone still thinks the Palestinians want or deserve a state. Congratulations on completing your course on the Middle East. You are now officially more knowledgeable about Israel and the conflict than 99% of Gen Z and pro Palestinian activities who take to the streets every day chanting for the murder of Jews. Thank you for coming today. Any questions?

Omar Shallan is a senior product manager with Amazon. After Hamas murdered more than 1200 people on 10/7, raped countless women (including girls as young as 12), kidnapped Holocaust survivors, shot babies point blank in the head, Omar stated their "resistance is justified". He goes on to say Israel is a terrorist and calls for the removal of the Jewish nation, echoing the Hamas call "From the River to the Sea".

StopAntisemitism unequivocally stands by its decision to spotlight John Cusack as its ‘Antisemite of the Week.’ From sharing X posts denying the mass rapes of 10/7 to claiming Musk is in the pocket of Zionists, it seems like he hasn’t learned a thing from his 2019 apology after he shared a comic that featured these dangerous tropes about ‘Jewish control’ and money. We invite the public to explore all of his commentary which has been archived on our website and firmly believe it’s time Hollywood considers the harmful impact of these statements. Antisemitism is spreading like stage 4 cancer and those with large platforms have the duty to not make it worse. stopantisemitism.org/antisem…
Our ‘Antisemite of the Week’ @johncusack has: 👉🏼 denied the mass rapes of 10/7 👉🏼 called Hamas a “charitable organization” 👉🏼 insanely claimed “Hamas was financed by the Israeli government” Why is @APAagency repping this bigot? More on Cusack with all archives and posts here: stopantisemitism.org/antisem…

NEW: Starbucks *fires* heroic barista who subdued and protected a co-worker from robbers after getting pistol-whipped in the head. I can't emphasis this enough: Starbucks is trash. 20-year old Michael Harrison, who was working through paramedic school, was fired after he fought off two criminals who tried robbing the store. The incident happened at a downtown Starbucks in St. Louis. The men rushed into the store with guns and told everyone to get on the floor. Harrison was instructed to open the cash register which he couldn't because he didn't have credentials. As the men went through Harrison's pockets, he was pistol-whipped in the head. A co-worker believed the gun was fake so he started fighting off the robbers. Harrison jumped into action to help him. Harrison was able to subdue Joshua Noe who was later arrested. The police officers thanked Harrison and his co-worker for their bravery. The other assailant, Marquise Porter-Doyle, was arrested nearby. Harrison was praised by local media but Starbucks was not thankful for his actions. They were then placed on paid leave for two weeks. After the two weeks was up, Harrison and his co-worker were fired for "violating company policy." "In situations like this, our training and protocols guide our partners to comply and de-escalate, not just for their safety but for the safety of all in the store," Starbucks said. "That job was helping me pay for college," Harrison said. "I just don’t understand it. I thought it was the right thing to do." This man should have gotten a raise. Instead, he was fired. Insane.

Wali Khan is a level 1 trauma nurse at Northwestern Memorial in Chicago, IL. When not taking care of patients, Wali Khan compares the Jewish nation to Nazis. Such comparisons are deemed antisemitic as defined by the IHRA working definition of antisemitism. Are Jews safe in his care, specifically Israelis?

Hafiza Khalique (left) was caught tearing down posters of kidnapped Israelis in October. Since then, Hafiza Khalique has been: - suspended from NYU - had her scholarship rescinded - and will be evicted out of her dorm Antisemitism finally has consequences.
HORRIFYING- NYU students walking around campus removing posters featuring missing Israelis being held in Gaza by Hamas terrorists. The lack of humanity by your students is not only heartbreaking but extremely concerning @nyuniversity @NYUCampusSafety

UPenn - JUST when you think things cannot possibly get even worse here, Anne Norton, distinguished Professor of Political Science: - liked a post that stated "Playing the victim is what Jews are best at" - shared a post calling the brutal rape of Jewish woman "alleged" - commented how good the Hamas hostages had it President Liz Magill must resign. And Anne Norton must go with her.
