What do you call an organization that massacred Jews in synagogues, that slaughtered airline passengers from around the world, and that is listed as a terror org by the EU, US, UK, Japan, and Canada?

To the NYT, it's a "Palestinian liberation group."

It says they're confident enough to laugh in the face of those who misrepresent their reality.
It also says they recognize this isn't one piece" by the NYT.

This week it called Abu Nidal, bombers of synagogues, a "liberation group."
It blamed "rabbis" for forcing AOC's vote.
It described someone who who admitted to being an antisemite as just anti-Israel.

Here are the replies she "hid" before apparently making it so that the general public can't reply. Image
I guess turning off replies makes it so nobody can point out her favorable citation of Farrakhan, a rabid antisemite. Image
Not sure what this is about. Image

Vis-a-vis the most important question, this difference doesn't matter at all.

I'm even a bit astonished that anyone would think it does make a substantive difference (other than the incidental points mentioned by @ariehkovler in the replies).
2 If this was an act motivated by antisemitism (as it appears to be), it wouldn't matter if they rubbed chicken sausage all over the walls believing it to be pork sausage. Or if they smashed a loaf of Wonder Bread, thinking it was a challah, thinking that was a sacred object.
If you think there are other reasons why this isn't what it seems to be—false flag, the detergent fell off the shelf, a philosemitic attempt to clean the scroll gone wrong—then make that case. Anything is possible. But "it wasn't a real Torah" doesn't cut it. At all.

The NYT view of "what it means to be Israeli today: “tensions," "inequities,” “divisions,” “unrest,” “fury,” “ambivalence,” “illegitimacy,” “alienation,” “injustice,” “discrimination,” “bias,” “abuse,” misfortune, “slums” & “shabby” “tired” “garish” towns. camera.org/article/ny-tim…
2/ Israel is consistently ranked among the very happiest in the world. It is home to what Time Out says is the "funnest" city in the world.

No wonder the guy in Time Out's photo looks so sad. #SadSadIsrael

3/ A few years ago I had the misfortune of randomly stumbling upon this parade of sadness in the Druze town of Dalyat al Karmel. #SadSadIsrael Image

"Iron Dome" means "Preventing Hamas rockets from hitting their Jewish, civilian targets." For clarity, let's replace the proper noun in some of these tweets. E.g.

"Preventing rockets from hitting their Jewish, civilian target perpetuates conflict & injustice."
2/
"Beth Miller, Jewish Voice for Peace Action’s Government Affairs Manager, told Jewish Currents, that preventing Hamas rockets from hitting their Jewish, civilian targets would not be included. 'No progressive should support this.'"
3/
"I'm glad funding for Israel preventing Hamas rockets from hitting their Jewish, civilian targets got removed from the NDAA!"

For the sake of clarity, let's put aside anything about the debt ceiling and note:

1) Israel's Iron Dome is a defensive anti-rocket system that saves innocent lives by SHOOTING WAR CRIMES OUT OF THE AIR.
2) As a bonus, the ability to shoot down Hamas's indiscriminate rockets often lessens the need for, or intensity of, an Israeli response to those attacks. The calculations are very different if a random rocket gets shot down vs if a Hamas rocket lands kills a family.
3) This part is mind-reading, but I'll do it: Those certain House "progressives" who made news today in relation to the Iron Dome are opposed to Israel having that ability. If they could push a button and make the Iron Dome systems disappear, they would. That's gross and immoral
