GOOD NEWS: A man who hurled antisemitic abuse at a Jewish family and a rabbi on their way to synagogue last July in Béziers, France 🇫🇷 has just been sentenced to a year in prison.

Antisemitism has consequences. France finally showed it.

It's that time of the month, absolutely insane volume of music here as a large chunk of the releases are full albums... finessed dubstep, raw warehouse electro, the creme de la creme of South African elegance and aggro, certified bendy techno bangers and much more besides. Press play at the top!

GOOD NEWS: The plan to remove Chaim Herzog’s name from a Dublin park has been put on hold after significant criticism from Irish leaders, Jewish groups, and voices abroad.

I’d bought tickets for Mica Paris’s gig in Watford last night - & although it was more convenient than going to see Mica Watford in Paris, I was tired & decided to stay in. Except I last-minute changed my mind. And a good job too, because every last person was needed. www.patreon.com/posts/144631...

There are plenty of great Hugh Masekela albums out there, of course, but I think my favourite is the one which features a song by his ex-wife Miriam Makeba and another by the president of Guinea.

Então é assim:

Primeiro ecrã: vou ao Google e escrevo “sondagem”, para procura a(s) última(s).

Segundo ecrã: o que o Google me responde é “Notícias sobre André Ventura - Sondagem”.

Já percebemos todos onde estamos metidos?

Gosto muito da música de Paul Weller e dos My Bloody Valentine. Simpatizo com a música dos Wolf Alice. Acho que ainda conseguiria aturar a música de Björk e dos Massive Attack. Espero que nunca sejam alvo de boicote patológico e ultrasseletivo, e descaradamente racista.

2016 happened. Russia did support Trump’s campaign. Good reporters were on it at the time. I wrote it up within the larger context of global oligarchy and neo-fascism in "Road to Unfreedom."
9 years ago,House Speaker Paul Ryan, and Speaker to be Kevin McCarthy had a recorded conversation in which McCarthy says, "There are two people that I think Putin pays, (Representative Dana) Rohrbacher and Trump. Swear to God."

She’s 102.

She survived the Holocaust.

And she walked the runway in London at an event celebrating inclusion, a “Beyond the Label” fashion show featuring participants of all ages and abilities.

A living reminder that light outlives the darkness.

Hamas was supposed to free all the hostages, living and murdered, by October 13.

It’s November 26, and the terror group still holds two.

Hamas has violated the ceasefire every single day. And why wouldn’t they? It’s not like the world cared.

“Poland belongs to Poles, not to Jews.”

A Polish MP and Member of the European Parliament just claimed this, in a nation where Auschwitz, Treblinka, and Sobibor stand as permanent witnesses to what that ideology leads to.

Europe repeats “Never Again,” while some keep proving they never meant it.

While people spend their days shouting “Boycott Israel”, Israeli scientists are busy finding a way to stop ALS from progressing and even repair damaged nerve cells.

Some try to tear Israel down, meanwhile Israel keeps building a better world.

Strange how everyone “motivated by mental illness” in antisemitic crimes somehow suffers from the same condition: wanting to burn synagogues and kill Jews.

Just a periodic reminder.
Wish people would stop saying Trump has done a U-turn on Ukraine. He does this every few weeks. Putin then makes a violent point of ignoring him. Trump's alleged change of heart is just a prelude to his next humiliation by Putin.

“Kill all Zionists” was sprayed inside UC Berkeley Graduate Housing.

Are Jewish students expected to feel safe when someone is literally calling for their murder?

Threats against Jews are escalating while the university looks away. What are you waiting for to speak up?
