I've gathered the most powerful images since that cursed Saturday on October 7th. There's no ranking here - just the images that caught my eye the most.

A 🧵:

Let's start with this amazing picture of the heroic IDF soldiers. May God protect them, amen. Image Tamir Hershkovitz, an Israeli whose parents were brutally murdered by Hamas on 10/7 in Kibbutz Be'eri, lighting the first candle on a menorah that survived the fire of his house.

The people of Israel never lose hope. Image

What the anti-Semites and Israel haters fail to understand is that the desire to hurt us is the reason for our strength and for them to fail. One of the central points of Jewish culture and faith is its emphasis on unity.
--> This is not just a social concept, it's deeply embedded in the Jewish faith as a crucial part of their identity and the contract they made with G-d. In times when antisemitism is at its peak, the call to hurt us confirms our commitment to each other and strengthens our unity.

There are some things that every pro-Israel and Jew should know - some good and some bad.

Let's start with the bad:
1. We are currently witnessing the peak of anti-Semitism in the world since the Holocaust, and it will increase as Israel continues to fight its enemies. 2. The current period has brought to light the presence of anti-Israeli/Jewish elements in Western organizations and institutions. In recent years, Qatari and Iranian factors have established factors of influence in the UN, in educational institutions, in journalism, and more.
