“If Christians, Hindus or Jews are really our enemies, as so many say, why are we Muslims fighting with each other?”

"#Russian courts have sentenced 135 people to prison for their roles in the October 2023 mob #attack on Makhachkala Uytash Airport in the Muslim-majority region of #Dagestan, Russia’s Investigative Committee announced Friday.

The attack occurred amid heightened tensions following the #October7 #Hamas massacre in southern #Israel and Israel’s subsequent war in #Gaza, the #Jewish Chronicle reported.

On October 29, 2023, hundreds of young #Muslim men stormed the airport after rumours spread that a flight from #TelAviv had landed.

Footage from the scene showed rioters waving #Palestinian flags, shouting “Allahu Akbar,” and searching terminals for Jewish and @Israeli passengers."

“Self-defence means not only attacking terrorists but destroying them. When Hamas terrorists hide behind people, behind schools … civilian places lose their protected status because terrorists abuse it,” said Germany's then foreign minister during a parliamentary session marking the anniversary of the 7 October 2023 Hamas-led attack on southern Israel.

"#NewYork’s Festival #Sefarad — which is inspired by the Festival Séfarad de #Montréal, which celebrated its 45th anniversary last month — will include robust programming with more than 40 events, including #Shabbat dinners, #book talks, #tours, #workshops, #films and #concerts.

#NewYorkCity is home to one of the most diverse and dynamic #Jewish communities in the world,” the American #Sephardi Federation, one of the lead organizers of the festival, said in a statement. “After the atrocities of #October7, the need for creating communal, intellectual, and cultural connections that bring all #Jews together has never been greater.”

So sick of sending these assholes to holocaust museums and shit. 🙄

"Portnoy, who has been an advocate against #antisemitism since #October7, said that he would find out who was responsible for the sign and force them to “do antisemitism classes” or “whatever it takes to make this right."

The #BarstoolSports founder also said that he had spoken to the staff members responsible for the sign, calling them “one of the dumbest f***ing humans I've ever talked to.”

In an update posted two hours later, Portnoy said that he had tracked down the culprits and was sending them to #Auschwitz to learn about the #Holocaust.

"I've had more hate, more antisemitism in the last year and a half than I've ever had before."

Fanpage.it: "Ammanettato e bendato, picchiato per una notte intera al freddo", il racconto di Hamdan Ballal

"Anche Khaled Shanran e Nasser Shariteh, arrestati insieme a Ballal, hanno riferito di aver subito un'aggressione simile. Entrambi hanno testimoniato che lo stesso colono che aveva attaccato Ballal si era introdotto nelle loro case, accompagnato da circa quindici giovani con il volto coperto, e aveva iniziato a colpirli violentemente."

haaretz.com/israel-news/2025-0 #Israel's Renewed #Gaza Offensive Exposes Netanyahu's Real Goal: Political Survival Through Endless #War #Hamas is a murderous #terrorist organization, and the war began at its sole initiative and responsibility with the surprise attack on southern Israel on #October7.
But Hamas' psychological abuse of the #hostages and their families during the recent release phases cannot be described as a significant breach of the agreement on its part.
