Starting my week in the 🇺🇸 with a briefing to MIT leadership. Here with MIT president Rafael Reif.
From MIT to Harvard to meet President Lawrence S. Bacow and to join my old and dear friends in the 25th reunion - the class of MC/MPA 1994!
And to NYC - I’m Grateful to Amb Jim Jeffrey & @richardhaass for joining me at @inssisrael annual mtg in NYC, hosted by our Chair Frank Lowy, our discussions of Syria, the Iran crisis & Arab-Israeli peacemaking were wide-ranging and deep.
And todayvaluable and wide-ranging dialogue with @jdgreenblatt45, on Arab-Israeli relations & the central role of the U.S., following his #UNSC remarks, for which I thanked him, he brought truth to a forum where false narratives are all too common.

Just after Israel's 2nd round of national elections, on Sept. 20, I spoke in NYC to @J_Insider about Israel's need for a national unity government.
jewishinsider.com/2019/10/amos-y…
1/3
It is not only to avoid a 3rd round of elections, but it is important to bridge left-right/religious-secular/Jewish-Arabs and social gaps in our divided and polarized state. A unity government will strengthen Israel’s future as a Jewish, secure, moral and democratic state.
2/3
It is my hope that a unity government herald in a more inclusive Israeli outlook toward Jewish people around the world.
I was pleased to see my interview with @J_Insider was published in an article that included the man I most admire in Israel's public life - @PresidentRuvi.

US-Israel DEFENSE TREATY :
Ostensibly at this timing, this is clearly about election propaganda, and not a ripe policy step in Israel, nor in Washington.
A defense treaty with the US would strengthen Israel’s deterrence, but its costs will outweigh its benefits.
1/5
The subject has been discussed and turned down due to five main reasons:
1️⃣ Preservation of our independence and freedom of action, free of US approval.
2️⃣ Keeping opacity about Israel strategic capabilities attributed to Israel by international media.
2/5
3️⃣ Upholding the fundamental principle of Israel’s defense: “we protect ourselves by ourselves”. We should not risk American soldiers in our defense!
4️⃣ IDF fight on our borders, not expeditionary wars around the world. The Golani brigade in Afghanistan? No thanks…

🔵הסכם ההגנה עם ארה״ב🔵:
על פניו ובעיתוי הנוכחי מדובר בתעמולת בחירות מובהקת, שלא הבשילה למדיניות מגובשת, לא בארץ ולא בוושינגטון.
בעיתוי אחר ולגופו של עניין,
חוזה הגנה עם ארה״ב יחזק ההרתעה הישראלית, אולם מחיריו גבוהים מתועלתו.
1/3
הנושא נדון וירד מהפרק בעבר מ 5 סיבות עיקריות:
1️⃣ שימור עצמאותנו וחופש פעולתנו מבלי להכפיפם לאישורי ארה״ב.
2️⃣ שימור עמימות היכולות המיוחדות המיוחסות ל🇮🇱 בעולם.
3️⃣ פגיעה בעקרון היסוד של הגנת ישראל: ״מגינים על עצמנו בעצמנו״. אל לנו לסכן חיילים אמריקאים בהגנתנו.
2/3
4️⃣ צה״ל מגן על הבית, ולא נלחם ברחבי העולם. גולני באפגניסטאן? לא תודה...
5️⃣ בחוזה הגנה מגדירים גבולות - האם ראש הממשלה מתכוון עתה לדון עם הסנאט ה🇺🇸 על גבולות ישראל?

סיכום : נושא כבד משקל כל כך ראוי שיידון לעומק, ולא יישלף ערב הבחירות ללא שהציבור מבין לעומק את משמעותו.

#Leadership requires people to stick with you through thick and thin.Leadership is the ability to rally people not for a single event,but for year. In business,leadership means that customers will continue to support your company even when you slip up." #StartWithWhy @simonsinek
"Great leaders, in contrast, are able to inspire people to act. Those who are able to inspire give people a sense of purpose or belonging that has little to do with any external incentive or benefit to be gained." #StartWithWhy by @simonsinek
"After September 11, there were customers who sent checks to Southwest Airlines to show their support. One note that accompanied a check for $1,000 read, “You’ve been so good to me over the years, in these hard times I wanted to say thank you by helping you out.”#StartWithWhy

I have reached a whole new level of #PISSEDOFF.

I didnt think such a #dark and #scary state, or level, could be reached. It may top 12-14-17's causation. It's. That. Bad. So, I've prepared a statement...

#PascoSheriff #HaveYouAllNoShame @CigarCityBeer
Dear @FBI,
I must implore you ask your colleauges in @FBITampa to help research this new level of #PISSEDOFFNESS. As locals, they may offer a special indepth knowledge of this new level I have reached. This is not fair & law enforcement must #investigate. No one deserves this.
This is my #apogee of #Pissedoffness.
If #motherfuckers & #tears werent a noticable level.
If #HUSH or #INTIMIDATION tactics being deployed didnt strike a chord.
If #EVIDENCE, PROOF, or 30k Bonds didnt #WOW YOU.
If posting mom with no shred of investigatable value wasnt enough...

Chicago universities partner to fuel Conservative agenda, empower white Christian ruling class
2/ Seven years ago, Roosevelt University opened its $123 million, 32-story Vertical Campus in Chicago's South Loop. It's the sixth-tallest academic facility in the world. Moscow State University is the tallest.

3/ The high-rise was part of a university transition under then-president Charles Middleton to move away from serving the non-traditional, older, part-time student and focus on enticing more traditional, college-aged, full-time students.

1/ I'm stunned, but not surprised by AT&T's decision to extended their #Friends licensing deal with Netflix through 2019. A perfect example of, despite saying they were committed to winning in SVOD, Big Media wants to have their cake, eat it to - and then hope they get a 3rd cake
2/ #Friends is one of Netflix's most valuable titles. It's one of the most celebrated sitcoms, one of Netflix's most popular series, and has a whopping 236 episodes of tonnage - and a fervent fanbase
3/ AT&T could (and should) have simply moved #Friends to HBO, their leading SVOD asset. Imagine the impact on customer acquisition - all of a sudden the press coverage inundates all Friends fans to get HBO, if they haven't already!

Does AUSA Moira Kim Penza, prosecutor in the fed. #NXIVM #RICO criminal racketeering case, realize that her indictments of #NXIVM leader, Keith Raniere aka "Vanguard," last March, may have affected the outcome of the 2018 Mexican Presidential Election? #ArizonaMafia #Democrats
Moira Kim Penza is 1 of the main prosecutors in the federal #NXIVM #RICO criminal case. A #RICO case is very serious; it is 1 of the most complex types of prosecutions the U.S. Government can initiate. Moira's boss is Richard P. Donoghue, U.S. Atty for the Eastern District of NY.
Penza is a smart lawyer. According to publicly available information, she studied at Cornell Law School, a private Ivy League University located in Ithaca, New York. Cornell was ranked the #13 law school in America, out of 203 law schools, by U.S. News & World Report, in 2018.

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed

Two errors in the 2nd graf of Breitbart's Trump Hotel DC article:
-holdings aren't out of @realDonaldTrump's hands: trust isn't blind & he can profit from it
-Trump Org told Congress it was estimating foreign receipts—not auto donating in full
