Proud Jew. Raging Zionist. I support the right of Jews to exist in their ancestral homeland. In the business of making my ancestors proud. 🇮🇱

[just-the-salt]

New blog, let me make a few clarifications:

I am a Zionist. A raging Zionist.

Zionism -> the right of Jews to exist in their ancestral homeland.

The ancestral homeland -> has always been Judea, modern day Israel.

Jews -> are native to Judea, modern day Israel.

If you came here to spew hate, don't. I will not tolerate antisemitism. I will not tolerate factless libels. You will be blocked. However, if you have a genuine question with good faith, I will do my best to answer.

This is a safe space for Jews.

This is a safe space for non-Jews.

This is a safe space for Persians, my brothers and sisters, you will be free.

This is a safe space for Zionists.

This is a safe space for healthy debate and free speech, as long as it is not hateful.

Know the limits, because I sure as hell know mine.

Am Yisrael Chai.

עם ישראל חי.

Didn't think that I'd have to post this exact comparison again, didn't even think I'd have to post it once, and yet I stand disappointed again.

On the left: a sign in German on a street in Bavaria, reading: "Jews are unwanted here." Photo taken by an American in 1937.

On the right: a message from a hotel in Bavaria, Zum Hirschen, sent to Israelis who tried to book a stay, reading: "Sorry, there are no Jews allowed in our hotel." June 2026.

Again, the incident has been "handled": Booking.com took the hotel off its platform and the hotel itself was contacted by the Israeli consulate in Munich. The hotel at first denied sending the message, but later stated that it was indeed one of its employees that sent it. It is yet unclear if the case will lead to formal proceedings.

Let me point out that one small detail. They didn't said Israelis weren't allowed, they didn't say Zionists weren't allowed. They said Jews. Now Bavarians aren't new at the scene of antisemitism, in fact they are very experienced, but nowadays, we don't say Jews when we're being discriminatory, no, we say something else. You're not supposed to say the quiet part out loud! (For those in my comments who don't understand sarcasm, that was it.)

This joins many concerning cases across Europe and the UK (not to mention the US!) that reenact the nostalgic scenes of the 1930s and 1940s. (Again, sarcasm). I haven't yet made a post about the spa in Spain that refused a Jewish woman on entry on account of her Magen David necklace. And here Europe strikes again, in the very place the Nazi party rose to power. All those woke westerners that are so proud to chant about punching Nazis, and where are you now? Aren't you ashamed? Wouldn't even recognize one if it was saluting in your face.

Multiple comments on this post say shit like "maybe this wouldnt be happening if you guys weren't murdering Palestinians."

Motherfucker it doesnt say NO ISRAELIS ALLOWED it says JEWS.

And "we'd stop being antisemetic if you stopped deserving it" is so fucking antisemetic. The fact that the entire world feels justified in turning on every single Jew, both in Israel and across the diaspora, based on the actions of a corrupt government, is disgusting.

Anyhow, to any leftist who thinks it matters when you add, "oh but I personally dont have a problems with JEWS, just Israelis/Zionists" I hope you're happy with the world you're helping make for us.

Again.

Wonderful addition, needed to be said. Thank you friend. If you're gonna be antisemitic at least read that first.

Having a loved one in Israel is weird bcs I have every personal reason to want this war over as soon as possible, but I can't hang around and talk with other people against the war, bcs most of the people against the war in the west kinda want the person I love dead, and yeah.

[whereserpentswalk]

A lot of people's idea of being anti war is desiring one side to completely obliterate the other through conquest, and thinking they'll be no war after that because the enemy race has been neutralized, which is definitionally the most pro-war thing you can think.

[girlactionfigure]

Hypocrisy at its best. 

[ponpurin]

No actually as an indigenous Mexican who had the beautiful ancient cities and temples of my people callously buried under catholic churches, who is also Jewish, I’m not going to be chill about the dome on the Temple Mount either.

I’m not going to stop feeling strongly about it in the same way I still feel strongly seeing centuries of my people’s history buried under Catholic churches. I understand the dome is there now, and I don’t think it should be destroyed because I understand the significance it holds now.

But I’m not going to stop being angry about it. Especially since my people are not even allowed to go there. I can’t imagine the rage we Mexicans would justifiably have if Spaniards suddenly decided we aren’t allowed to visit our own ancient cities and temples becuase the land is “their’s now” since they built their churches there. The patience and understanding of the Jewish people is so fucking undermined. We have time and time again been expected to and have bent over backwards for others becuase we fundamentally believe in uplifting everyone, even at the cost of ourselves. Even in our own fucking country. Even in the country everyone accuses of being “Jewish supremacist” do we still face blatant discrimination, and allow ourselves to face it for the sake of our muslim neighbors and muslim Israeli citizens.

My people’s history has been repeatedly stomped over and time and time again attempted to be eradicated from history. I won’t stop being mad about that.

Are you in Germany right now? If so, do you feel safe? Sending love your way wherever you are.

I'm not, but lots of love to German Jews out there!!

Might as well just rip the band-aid, I am in Israel, and proud to be!

I am so proud and thankful to be born in the land that my great grandfather built and defended, and I will forever call it home, as it has always been my home.

In my header you can actually see an authentic letter in Hebrew that the same great grandfather received from his brother in Poland, talking about wanting to join him in Israel and about changes in their town.

Sending love wherever you are, anon!

[just-the-salt]

Yes you heard right.

I have many things to say to that, but honestly, kids aren't even kosher, and I personally don't really like them anyway. They're not that good (tasting) (obviously I'm joking.)

Do you think this is an appropriate behavior from a fully developed adult? Because to me it sounds like miserable kindergarten insults over actual assault. I don't even want to talk about the woman, because she isn't worth my attention. She was arrested, and according to CBS news:

Police said they arrested 23-year-old Diana Smith in connection to the attack and that she is facing several charges, including hate crime and aggravated harassment.

but I do want to talk about the fact that barely anyone on the subway reacted. According to the 23yo victim who chose to stay anonymous out of fear, only two people briefly stepped in to help her.

"It was shocking that bystanders ... just no one doing anything, and to the point where I was beaten to the ground," the victim said. "People are much stronger as a community."

Not even a year had passed since the horrible attack and murder of Iryna Zarutska, also 23, a Ukrainian refugee, on the light rail train in North Carolina, and she wasn't even Jewish. A quick aside, I wanted to link an article about Iryna Zarutska, but the way the BBC and CNN worded their articles, they almost feel more sorry for the man who stabbed her (a POC) for "ending" HIS life (facing the consequences of first degree murder) but again what can one expect from these sorry excuses of journalism establishments. How can you promise us "never again" and let this behavior slide in public spaces AGAIN? The blood had not dried! Inexcusable and unacceptable. Do better.

But wait, here comes the most concerning part of the article:

"Antisemitism has now moved from just words to actual violence," said Lisa Katz, chief government affairs officer at Combat Antisemitism Movement, an organization combating Jewish hate. "We have tracked 193 incidents of antisemitism in New York City this year through May 31 and that equates to more than one per day."

"More than one per day."

I wonder how you sleep at night.

Jews of New York, stay safe, I love you

"Discussing the ancient kingdoms of Israel and Judea is promoting Zionist propaganda" - bunch of ignorant nazis probably

[sethshead]

Just a reminder that Irish nationalism isn’t necessarily a left-wing tendency. Sutcliffe can now add Nazi-style antisemitism to all the racism that has never kept him out of office in the country that sent its condolences to the German embassy upon the death of Hitler.

[just-the-salt]

With all the respect I can have for another group that suffered injustices, I am very disappointed by Ireland as a whole and the Irish as a people. I know it's not everyone, but as a Jew I really want to go on a trip to Ireland, but I'm too afraid of antisemitism to do it.

so there is a democrat candidate for Congress in Texas who wants concentration camps for American Zionists. no joke, her name is Maureen Galindo. yes, this makes her a fucking Nazi and I cannot believe it's 2026, barely 80 years after wwii ended, and we're already at this point. her and Graham Platner make a good team. just lol. I have no idea what to event think atp.

"punch Nazis" until it's an actual Nazi. in that case, we vote for them for federal office, apparently.

I am not anywhere near New York, but if you are living in the US or in NY, join us Jews and non-Jews in the effort to stop the spread of blood libels and antisemitism in the press!

The timing of this outrageous op-ed is very suspicious as well, as reported by the Times of Israel:

Israel’s Foreign Ministry also alleged that the Times deliberately published Kristof’s column ahead of an independent Israeli report that found Hamas had systematically used sexual violence in the onslaught of October 7, 2023, which sparked the war in Gaza. The Foreign Ministry claimed the Times had been approached with the Israeli report “months ago.”

Israel's Foreign Ministry published on X their account:

Months ago, the Civil Commission approached the New York Times with a report on Hamas’ systematic sexual violence on Oct. 7 and after. The @nytimes said it was not interested.

New York Times, do better.

Thank you everyone who reblogged this, and everyone who showed up to this rally!

Let me just amplify a link that the lovely @shofarsogood shared in the comments:

More than 300 protest 'blood libel' published by 'New York Times' outside paper's NYC office

"A column like this does horrible damage, normalizing anti-Zionism and antisemitism," a dentist, who traveled six hours to attend the rally,

Thank you, it had been a delight reading this article!
