Joining thousands of others we will shortly be suspending our Twitter activity for 48 hours in protest at the ongoing tolerance of hate speech in this platform.

@jack @Twitter #NoSafeSpaceforJewHate

honestreporting.com/honestreportin…
In recent weeks, we have looked on with dismay as Jews displaying a Jewish symbol have been locked out of their accounts while actual hatred has been allowed to proliferate.
We have seen how antisemites such as Louis Farrakhan have a platform on Twitter, and how celebrities share his clips to an audience of millions.
We have seen how attacks on Israel frequently turn into attacks on Jews.
And we have seen a reluctance on the part of the traditional broadcast media to report on these outbursts of hatred.
We are now saying #NoSafeSpaceForJewHate and walking out of ⁦@Twitter until 9am UK time on Wednesday.

It's now up to Twitter to make a change for the better, and to the media to fully cover this story. Enough is enough. Image

.@Independent "takes a closer look at the history of the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) and why it is controversial."

So let's take a closer look at how The Independent evidently finds the concept of Jews defending themselves against terrorists to be "controversial." 🧵 Image
@Independent No mention of how the newly formed IDF fought to defend the nascent Jewish state against 5 Arab armies intent on wiping it out.

Just a hyperbolic claim that "hundreds of thousands of people were driven...into refugee camps." Image
@Independent The IDF "claims" to be facing terrorist organizations?

Just who does @Independent believe threatens Israelis? Or did October 7 simply not happen? Image

🇺🇸 New York 🇨🇦 Toronto 🇬🇧 Manchester 🇦🇺 Sydney

All major cities. But they aren't capital cities.

Like 🇮🇱 Tel Aviv. It isn't Israel's capital.

So why do so many media outlets keep claiming it is?

Here's a running 🧵 of capital errors as Tel Aviv comes under missile barrage 👇
Using Tel Aviv as a metonym for Israel's government and directly referring to it as Israel's capital. All in the space of two paragraphs.

Not very impressive, @MailOnline. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14834499/Thousands-pro-Palestinian-protesters-march-London-yell-shame-you-stop-bombing-Iran-pro-Israeli-counter-demo.html
No, @MirrorUSNews, Tel Aviv is not the capital of Israel.

And what on earth is an "exchange of hostile bombs?!"

The missiles fired by the Islamic Republic are targeting civilians while Israel's are targeting regime assets and nuclear sites.

They aren't the same. https://www.themirror.com/entertainment/tv/fox-news-interrupted-israel-iran-1216032

Israel struck Iran preemptively.
Was it legal under international law? Here's what the rules actually say 👇
International law doesn’t ban preemptive strikes, but it does make them hard to justify.
They must be a response to a real, immediate threat, not a guess or grudge.
The standard? A 19th-century case called the Caroline Affair.
It's still the gold standard for when preemptive force is legal.
Modern military lawyers use it like a checklist, and it’s hard to pass.

How the media manufactured a “genocide.”
Zach Goldberg breaks down how the world’s most serious crime became a political weapon—and how media outlets helped it happen. 🧵 Image
Mentions of “genocide” in relation to Israel have exploded—far beyond how the media treated actual, recognized genocides in history. Image
In The New York Times, coverage linking Israel and genocide was:
➤ 9x higher than for Rwanda
➤ 6x higher than for Darfur
Let that sink in. Image

“Why hasn’t there been a Palestinian state?”
Let’s talk about the peace deals that could’ve made it happen—and why they were rejected.👇 Image
1️⃣ 1947 – The UN Partition Plan
Palestinians were offered statehood with the most fertile land.
Arab leaders said no. Then 6 Arab states attacked Israel.
Israel survived. Image
2️⃣ 1967 – Khartoum Summit & UN Resolution 242
After the Six-Day War, the UN proposed land-for-peace.
The Arab League responded:
“No peace. No recognition. No negotiations.”
End of conversation. Image

📰 No casualties. No bullet wounds. No injuries. No massacres.
But that's not how the media reported it...🧵 Image
The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation's drone footage showed zero casualties, the IDF confirmed it, but media outlets still ran Hamas quotes as fact. Image
Image
Image
Why the influx of disinformation? Because Hamas is desperate to sabotage an aid system that bypasses its control, so it invented atrocities, and the media helped legitimize them. Image
