Hamas just issued a new demand. They will not disarm until Palestine is internationally recognised with Jerusalem as its capital. This new demand is a direct result of the idiocy of France, Canada and the UK plus the 28 foreign ministers who called for an unconditional ceasefire

To all my melbourne friends. Please make this business and its owners famous in all the wrong ways
SHOCKING: A 24-year-old Jewish woman was rejected from a job at a plant nursery in Melbourne for being Israeli.
She applied for a position at The Garden of Eden nursery in the suburb of Albert Park and received a text from the co-owner, Brett Dahan, that read:
âUnfortunately, the position has been filled by someone with an (sic) semblance of humanity and who cares for plants, animals, and the environment.
âGood luck on your journey and I hope you leave Melbourne soon! Free Palestine and end genocide NOW. Youâre complicit in IT.â
This is pure antisemitism. How can the same people who protest discrimination turn around and happily discriminate against Jews?
It can't be up to Jews alone to fight bigotry against us.
