I've been working on East Jerualem issues daily, for more than 30 years.
This issue is neither localized not trivial.
In the midst of all this horror and hopelessness, extending support to the beleaguered Armenian Quarter is one of the most important things that needs be done.
๐จ @ArmenianQuarter is in serious danger, facing an imminent threat to its cultural heritage and the rights of its community. Bulldozers are destroying sites within the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Old City violating the rights of ๐ฆ๐ฒ people

In #Daghestan migliaia di ceceni hanno aspettato un aereo che veniva da #TelAviv per dare la caccia agli ebrei provenienti da #Israele. Poi non mi venite a dire che non cโรจ #antisemitismo

I believe this to be the most intelligent and nuanced statement that I've seen from anyone in any political arena.

Don't interpret. Don't use as a hasbara/propaganda prop. Don't draw conclusions. Don't speak on behalf of. Don't judge. Don't psychoanalyze.
Take it for what it is: a small, poignant display of humanity in the midst of carnage and fear, anger and hate.

๐งตNow that day has broken, and we're getting better evidence, I'm willing to share some PRELIMINARY thoughts on the al-Ahli hospital explosion. The photos of the scene are, to me, not consistent with an airstrike and are not consistent with claims that 500+ people were killed.

๐ฅNever thought I'd write this but in Israel a hotline for missing people has been opened. There are at least dozens of Israeli hostages in Gaza. Relatives of missing persons are being asked to get to a Ben Gurion airport meeting place with DNA.

A few thoughts on today, in no particular order. First, among Israelis: impossible to overstate the level of shock. The intelligence failure resembles 1973, but you almost have to go back to 1948 to find an analogue for the violence that played out in cities and towns. ๐งต
Israeli cyber firms developed an 'insane' new spyware tool which can spread through advertisements and for which there is no defense. haaretz.com/israel-news/2023โฆ

This is absolutely compulsory viewing for anyone who cares about the character of Jerusalem, the targeting and hatred of an already vulnerable Christian community here, and what is becoming of us in the State of Israel.
Watch. Just watch.
โFriar for one dayโ English version: The justification of some Jewish groups for hate crimes is that they are "mentally ill". so no. Our investigation proved that the attacks are really not from the mentally ill, but people with a clear opinion who simply hate something they are not. They have been brainwashed that Jesus is bad. Young extremists, children, and most sadly soldiers, the express their hatred towards Christianity. Just think what would be the reaction of those Jews if a Christian had spat on them in Europe. @tamarishshalom

This is a very important day in Israel, citizens are out in the street demonstrating across the country after bill to curb judicial oversight passes 1st reading. And ๐ is another serious reaction by reservists from the intelligence
I'll be moderating a panel about the alarming rise in attacks against #Christians in #Jerusalem. Join us on July 17 to hear from our expert panelists how this is impacting local communities, and what this sudden escalation says about changes within Israeli society. Register๐
