The reply tweet is from an Israeli Druze (that obviously speaks Arabic - תרתי משמע).

Why are ultimatums Arab specific?

That makes sense, but the “ever” part is hyperbolic and erodes trust in the rest of what he’s saying.

Not sure why you're overanalyzing a translated article when he definitely didn't mean it the way you are saying. In that same paragraph he is clearly talking about the present situation, not a history of Israeli politics.

Why isn't Israel more focused on the Hamas leaders in Qatar?

(Pay walled but the question begs)

Qatar isn't an ally for Israel but is for the US. My question is how they can get away with harboring terror leaders? In a normal world there should be an arrest warrant for them for their orchestrating and holding American citizens as hostages and and they should be extradited to the US.

I guess america is held hostage by Qatar... They don't really have any leverage...I guess that's Alex Berenson's point

why does the US need to have a military base there?

PRESS RELEASE:

Shmerel Krishevsky has decided to hold a public hearing in the Zichron Moshe shtiblach after maariv at 3am to discuss the legal consequences and ramifications of Reb Yossel Gutfarb's dramatic decision to unilaterally switch over his historic 4am maariv minyan to 3:30 am.

The hearing will be open to wide public, while gallery seats will only be available for those who are committed mispalelim of the maariv minyanim between 3 and 4 am.

A further press release will be issued detailing an assessment of future hearing schedules in case a formal decision has not been reached before the "half hour before chatzos hayom shacharis minyan" convenes.

Gallery seating may be available for foreign "diplomats" with fancy rented cars who are likely to donate 10 shekels or more to the yerushalmi collectors.

Note: if u are a yerushalmi yeshiva bocher trying to get a gallery seat by disguising urself as an american gvir, dont bother. we will have expert yerushalmi security guards with yellow vests, coming in all the way from meron, to test all self claimed gvirim with the well know REISH test to see if u are a true foreign diplomat or a faker.

What makes "civilian" Gazan parents proud.

Quote
Israeli authorities obtained a recording of a phone call one terrorist made on WhatsApp to his father in Gaza. He declares down the phone: “Dad, I killed 10 with my bare hands.” He repeats the sentence over and over.

The phone is handed to his mother and the terrorist, who responds to the name Mahmoud, shouts: “Mum, your son is a hero. Kill, Kill, Kill.”

The parents ask their son to come home to Gaza. They tell their child: “May God bring you back in peace.”

Why is this not national news? They should be stripped of citizenship for supporting terror and deported.
