Tocqueville predicted that the United States of America couldn't last, *unless* there were certain apolitical sanctuaries that bound Americans together across deep disagreements - commerce, higher education, philanthropy, sports.

Ignore everything before the “but.” This rule will never fail you and makes it easy to keep tabs on everyone who justifies political violence, murder, etc.

Less than 5% of students raised their hands when asked if they’d report Hamas’ October 7th attack to authorities if they had prior knowledge.

No surprise the Oxford Union refused to publish Mosab Hassan Yousef’s speech.

Shame on you, Oxford.

As an @UniofOxford alumni, I find this truly disgusting. I stand with Israel and the IDF in their fight against Hamas and every other terror group. 🇺🇸🇮🇱

Hamas chose war and they are getting everything they deserve l as a result.
