🧵 In 2005, all Jews alive and dead were taken out of Gaza. Despite property deeds and purchases, ancient Temples & modern towns, Gaza was made Judenrein (free of Jews) to try for peace. Peace with the Arabs who lived there, despite the terror attacks they regularly perpetrated. Cemeteries were uprooted, homes destroyed yet hothouses and agricultural infrastructure were left for the Arab population to use. It tore Israelis apart. It rent the nation. Those opposed to the move said removing the Jewish population of Gaza would bring rockets on Israeli towns

I see so much vilification of IDF soldiers, whether it's bc ppl don't understand war or they find stupid outliers making videos of themselves being idiots, or bc they take things out of context like video from attempted stabbings but only show the response. But heres what I know The soldiers in Gaza are made up of young men married just a few weeks, fathers who race btwn battles with terrorists to be with their wives for birth of their child, to hold them a few precious days and go back into battle to fight for their future. Others are CEOs or comedians

No matter what you think of Israel or Israelis there is something you need to know. On Oct 7th those of us who believed in peace, who dreamed of peace, were shaken to our core. Not because of Hamas. We know who they are. But because of the Gazans who slaughtered raped, & looted Gazan civilians who came to kibbutzim to kill. When you hear people say that there are no innocents in Gaza, this is why. Bc they came, they slaughtered, and they reveled in it. They screamed ALLAHU AKBAR as they terrorized & murdered children.

Images of Gazan men, undressed with their hands bound seem to disturb a lot of people around the world. And my question is why?
These images are by far some of the easiest this war has seen. So it's mind-boggling to me why they are eliciting the most reaction... They weren't tortured, they weren't slaughtered, they weren't burned, as Hamas did to Israelis at a music festival & in their homes on October 7th. They're taken alive & whole to be questioned. Why? Because some of them are the monsters who attacked families on Oct 7th.

People are screaming at me 3,000 children!
1- I don't believe a word that comes out of animal Hamas's mouth
2-Three wks later were still identifying our dead yet they have a full list of names & descriptions?
3-They lied about the dead in the past
4- every dead child is on Hamas 5- Hamas has hundreds of kilometers of tunnels underneath Gaza and gives exactly zero to civilians. They used exactly zero pounds of concrete to build shelters for their civilians
6- they are actively preventing civilians from leaving the areas the IDF has told them to evacuate

Thread on why you won't see our dead: I see people demanding proof of decapitated babies & raped women and I want to explain something. Life is Judaism's highest value. For us life is precious & holy, many of our laws surround separating between life & death and sanctifying life. Israel has never and I hope will never parade our dead and mutilated for world edification.

#1 for the dignity of the dead

#2 to spare loved ones that pain

I can't really type. Can hardly breathe. Refuse to watch videos & can barely read the news w/o falling to the ground. A literal nightmare with Hamas acting out their wildest dreams of slaughtering families in their homes capturing Jewish civilians & soldiers dragging them to gaza Today was a holiday - Shabbat + Shmini Atzeret. We don't use our phones or connect with the outside world. But bc my husband is an emergency responder, we heard reports of rockets, infiltrations-- things we thought HAD to be wrong. HAMAS, IN TRUCKS? IN THE STREETS??

It's not crazy. Jews have been tortured, slaughtered, exiled for not believing in Jesus as the Messiah. We should be safe from proselytizing in our country. Trying to convert Jews isn't okay. Believe what you want, don't try and "save " us.

It's possible people aren't aware of this, but it's big business to convert Jews, entire families have been exposed as Christians posing as Jews, manipulating & lying to everyone around them with the goal of converting them to Christianity. Google it if you don't believe me

For those who don't know, I was h@%ed here almost a month ago. I tried through @twittersupport to get back my account, but went in circles. Well over a dozen reports of my own, other people filed reports, tried to get to @elonmusk & got absolutely nowhere. For weeks. @TwitterSupport @elonmusk Every report I filed came back that they couldn't prove that I was me and I was basically sht out of luck. But I hadn't been asked to prove I was me... It was exhausting, disappointing & honestly depressing. I've been here since 2009, verified for years. I work here. I learn here

OMG you guys...The smile on my face right now.
THANK YOU to everyone who tweeted, reported, emailed pulled strings & favors. I LUV YOU

You ladies made NOISE & I won't forget how you pushed for me! @HilzFuld you seriously worked your contacts and took hours on a Friday to help me when I realized my grandparents story was deleted. It meant so much to me. THANK YOU! (I hope you didn't use all your favors up!!)

A thread on men participating in publications & institutions that censor women:

Not asking women for their opinions or not including their images in a random ad might seem like no big deal-- and it wouldn't be in a normal world. Sadly, this is not where we are. In our world, visuals of women are absent from mainstream magazines, books - even ones they write themselves, female professionals are erased, we aren't included in most decision making bodies, and our perspectives and opinions are regularly missing from communal discussions.

A thread: The Temple Mount is the where the Jewish Temples stood, before Muhammad was born - before Jesus was born. Churches & then a mosque were built on top of the ruins left by the Romans when they desecrated our holy site and exiled the Jews from Jerusalem and Judea. Though most were exiled, thousands of Jews stayed in the Holy Land under foreign rule and occupation, unable to visit their holy sites and persecuted religiously under Christian and Muslim rule. Temples turned into stables, cemetaries destroyed- Jews lived a dhimmi life

Apparently some people need an explanation on Jews should be mentioned when commemorating the Holocaust: Hitler created a genocide machine against the Jewish people across Europe and North Africa, murdering 6M out of a population of 9.5M (in Europe).
The Jews were 1% of Germans He used existing Jew hatred and added dehumanizing & false accusations to rally the support of regular citizens who turned away and turned in their Jewish neighbors. The smokestacks of Aushweitz were in plain view of the town.

People, the roads into Jerusalem and the Gush are closed. Please stay home Absolutely nuts. People were stuck overnight in wedding halls and in their cars! Some used tablecloths for blankets and are still there!

A thread on antiJewish hate & accusations of Islamophobia:
There's a concept in Judaism that someone who tries to cancel another person is using his own flaws to cancel them. Meaning they are accusing the other person of having the flaws/poor behavior that they themselves have When I hear people from San Francisco to Ramallah calling to "keep an eye on Jews" saying we are duplicitous, "the enemy", essentially, that no Jew is a good Jew, I see this in action. They accuse us of the things they are/believe. They incite against us while claiming we incite

Where I'm at? Dr Eilat Mazar excavated a Tel (man made hill) 17 years ago. Carbon dated organic material & dating pottery shards to 3000 years ago and found the ...

I'm just here to troll the anti Zionists At the Dior Cafe

There is no point in having a conversation with people who truly believe you have no right to exist. No history, no context, no truth matters when the only answer they find acceptable is your exile or your death.

I need to remember this. People who don't know the history of this country, of this nation, of this conflict, who ignore the fact that we live in a miniscule dot of land amongst dozens & dozens of Arab & Muslim states who actively work towards our destruction despite sharing ancestry have no credibility

Thread (that may be a bad idea):
I guess for some reason I think this needs to be said so here goes. I again had a conversation last night, brief of course, with someone who couldn't understand why I wouldn't vote Trump. He said "I'm not voting for my kids grandfather, I'm voting for someone to run a country. So he's a complete horror show of a person but he does good things for the country."

Thread: There are people in the Orthodox community who tell me I need to live and let live. But what they haven't understood, and maybe now they can start to understand, is that when you let people live by their own rules they will eventually come for you too. It starts with the women & children because they're the easiest targets. Don't report sexual abuse, don't let women have authority, when women do start to have influence erase them, show them their place.
Don't believe in science, teach that the authorities are out to get you.

Instead of preparing a future for children, hope of grandchildren , & peace for a nation, the Pal government (whose members live well, have their children treated at top Israeli hospitals & would never send them to die), feeds its ppl a steady diet of hate & expectation of death They train them to expect to eradicate Israel and take over the entirety of the country.

They raise them on lies, on utterly false hope.

They pay for dead Jews, the more the better.

They don't rule a nation, they rule a death cult of their own making.
