#this is absolutely fucking not an endorsement of the war or literally anything the Israeli government has done

Seeing a video of a hostage's grandmother shout the Shema into a loudspeaker on the Gaza border with the hope that her grandson might hear it...

What goyim don't understand is that Hamas didn't launch a war against Israel, or just Israel. It launched a war against Jews. It doesn't matter if we're shouting our prayers as loud as we can so our tortured loved ones can hear it or whispering them in a shul that got a bomb threat last week. The only difference is that Hamas militants are holding that grandson, and in the diaspora, they don't have to do the dirty work. Plenty of people are happy to intimidate and endanger Jews on their behalf.

And Hamas knew that and depended on it. I just hope one day people look back and see how a fascist, genocidal terrorist organization took advantage of them.
