This was antisemitism. Four men have admitted burning four Jewish volunteer ambulances outside a London synagogue. They didn’t target them by accident. They targeted them because they were Jewish. When even an ambulance becomes a target simply because it is Jewish, we should #antisemitism #JewishCommunity #HateCrime #UK

The true measure of our democracy is not how many politicians with security protection dare to wear a Star of David. It is how many Jews dare to wear one without it. Simona Mohamsson wore a Star of David during a party leaders’ debate. The threats followed. Now Sweden’s #Democracy #JewishIdentity #FreedomOfExpression #SE

We know that standing with us comes at a cost. So let’s make sure our support is heard just as loudly. They murdered people who were dancing at a music festival. But they cannot kill the music, and we will dance again. It costs nothing to stay silent. It takes something to #StandWithUs #MusicNeverDies #SupportTheCause #Therearenospecificcountrycodesmentionedinthetweet.

Heder till Simona Mohamsson för att hon markerar mot antisemitismen. Men att bära davidsstjärnan är första steget, inte det sista. Judar i Sverige behöver både symboler och handling. Politikerna måste vara kvar även när symbolerna är undanlagda. #antisemitism #Davidstjärna #JudarISverige #SE

What does “globalize the intifada” mean in practice? Iran just gave us an answer. A new group called HAYI, widely assessed as an IRGC proxy, has claimed 18 attacks in Europe since March. Twelve targeted Jewish institutions. This is not street protest. It is a foreign regime #GlobalizeTheIntifada #Iran #JewishSafety #IR #EU
