We extend our sincere gratitude to the Finnish government for their generous contribution of $1 million to Magen David Adom.

This support will undoubtedly strengthen Israel's national emergency medical services in a historically difficult moment.

Odd report, doesn't state if they're civs or IOF, guess we'll have to wait to find out. I'm assuming IOF.

Leaving a few links here in light of recent developments:

for the love of g-d, donate blood.

if you feel helpless and paralyzed and distraught right now, if you need something tangible and actionable to do, donate blood. people in your community need it, people outside of your community need it.

when you donate blood, you help people who rely on whole blood transfusions, iron infusions, IVIG, and other maintenance treatments for chronic conditions in addition to people who require emergency transfusions. human blood product can be shipped internationally to meet dire needs, but only if that blood product exists.

if you are eligible, please donate blood. there is no excuse not to.

Things I saw on my way to shul this Shabbat:

A house with tons of pro-Hamas signs in the window right next to a house with one huge sign that said "You Need Jesus"

A series of telephone poles covered in pro-Hamas posters, but one was torn one down and in the white residue it left behind, someone wrote Bring Them Home Now

Pieces left behind of stickers about antisemitism that had been torn down, with just a few words left readable, pleas for recognition that Israelis and Jews are human

The poster that's been up since October on a public electrical box that says "The world stands with Palestine" (which always makes me roll my eyes and think, yes, Jews know the world stands with whoever would like to eliminate us, this isn't news) was updated to also say Fuck Israel

The "Viva Palestina" sign depicting a terrorist with a gun that's been in the window of one house since October was updated to add more names of murderous terrorists that the homeowner wished to honor with a special shout-out

The huge banner outside of a church saying "Love demands a permanent ceasefire now!" with an image of a dove carrying an olive branch apparently offended the local bird population who didn't want their image associated with this message so they pooped all over it

Many, many signs campaigning for a candidate for city council who says she is a "recovering Zionist" who did "ancestral healing" so that she no longer feels a stake in the ancestral homeland full of refugees and can now be a Good Jew (her campaign slogan is about her compassion and integrity which is rich when you consider she's part of the mob screaming at Shoah survivors in city council meetings that they're lying and works with a white supremacist guy who literally calls Jews "zios" and pigs)

The most gorgeously lush and varied flower gardens that you could ever imagine gracing every sidewalk

Flowering trees everywhere

Birds, bees, butterflies, well fed squirrels, and prosperous housecats of all kinds

Gorgeous period architecture, much of it beautifully preserved

A homeless person under a freeway overpass, trying to snuggle into a comfortable position on the cement, in the exact place that another homeless person was recently found dead

Multimillion dollar houses in one of the wealthiest areas of a country that never gets bombed, covered in signs advocating their support for Israel to keep being bombed and terrorized

On a street full of houses with pro-Hamas placards, one solitary house with a mezuzah and a sign on its door saying שלום

Reread taz’s Instagram statement again, after seeing some people talking about how there was probably a lot of legal stuff going on behind the scenes, and idk I just thought I’d share my some thoughts I had.

First off, I’m not gonna lie, initially when I read the post I was kinda disappointed that it was still relatively vague and neutral when it comes to the Israel-Palestine conflict. But when people pointed out that there was more than likely a lot of legal stuff going on in terms of his job, security at cons, and how probably Netflix will only allow him to say so much and remain working on opla….it made more sense

But then I was reading over the statement again and I thought it was interesting how Taz specifically mentions the Red Crescent in his post. Like when he refers to the fundraiser or growing up in Tenerife he just calls them the Red Cross, I’m assuming because that’s the name he’s been familiar with (Cruz Roja is what the Red Cross is called in Tenerife according to the website - which is the same name but in Spanish obviously), but when explaining that the organisation doesn’t “take sides in hostilities,” in the post he called them “The Red Cross/ Red Crescent.” And like, as someone who’s country uses the term Red Cross I straight up had no idea they were also called the Red Crescent in other places.

I say this because the offical Red Cross branch in Palestine is the “Palestine Red Crescent Society.” And idk I just think it’s interesting that someone, who majority of the time refers to the Red Cross as only ‘the Red Cross’ (and I’m assuming has been most familiar with them with that terminology) and coped shit because of donating to the British Red Cross, also then mention the Red Crescent title.

Because Taz pads the post out a bit talking about “believing in humanitarian aid for innocent people, on both sides of any conflict” and deliberately doesn’t specifically mention Palestine or Israel at all, it does come off as quite neutral. But the fact he specifically mentions the the Red Crescent, chose to write it as “The Red Cross/ Red Crescent movement” (kinda making them seperate instead of saying ‘The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC),’ or ‘the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement”), and stated later in the post that “[his] efforts will never be in aid of supporting any aggression” makes me feel like maybe the statement was a little less neutral than I initially thought, and was potentially being very subtle to navigate any legal situations.

My ramble on the internet has once again ended up being kinda lengthy so sorry about that,, and idk, I might sound like a crazy person haha.

I’m not trying to change anyone’s mind just sharing some thoughts on tumblr.

Ironic how I reblogged a post about “asks from people who claim to be in Gaza and need money” are scams, and now my inbox is full of asks from people who claim to be from Gaza asking for money.
