Thank you, thank you, thank you🙏🏻 An Instagram/Threads post of mine the other day went viral. I'm amazed by the number of American Jews who thanked me for "saying what they couldn't." How is this so hard to say:
I am an American Jew
I can resolutely condemn Hamas
Stand with Israel as she recovers
Loudly oppose the inhumanity of Israel's occupation
Understand how Hamas filled a leadership vacuum in Gaza
Acknowledge the dehumanizing effect of Israel's blockade of Gaza
Mourn for friends and family in Israel
And mourn for the Palestinian people.
I can do all this at once. So can you.

What a fucking mess. Thank you again. This is the only piece anyone needs to read.
