Israeli musician Itay Benda just lost his entire YouTube channel after 17 years.
Terminated over copyright strikes.
17 years of music.
Thousands of hours of content.
Him playing every instrument himself.
His whole journey… gone in a second.
And the timing couldn’t be more painful.
He’s been using music to connect people from different countries, religions, and cultures — “Peace Through Music.”
Now he’s asking for help.
If you know anyone at YouTube, in the music industry, or rights holders who can actually look at this with human eyes… please reach out.
Share this.

He’s not giving up.
Neither should we.

Antizionism is a litmus test created by Progressives that they apply only to Jewish people. The price of being a Jewish Progressive who wants to stay in those spaces is to buy into the goal of eradicating Israel and removing all Jews from the Holy Land. There is no wiggle room on this either. Yet, Progressives will argue until they are blue in the face that this litmus test of Antizionism is not antisemitic. So I ask, are there litmus tests for members of other groups? Are blacks and Hispanics required to confront the homophobia and misogyny in their communities? Are Muslims required to condemn slavery in Qatar, and antisemitism, racial, homophobia and sexism in Islam? We all know the answer is an emphatic “No” so we all know that the Antizionism of the Progressives is just another word for antisemitism.

The Syrian terrorist regime abducted 15-year-old Druze child Hamza Waseem Aql on July 15, 2025, and continues to hold him in Adra Prison. @USAMBTurkiye has facilitated this.
Plus, every new child born in this country is already burdened with $100K in debt.
“59% of food bank users have a post-secondary education. 50% have full-time employment…
The social contract has been broken.”
Millions of Canadians were lied to.
They went to college, played by the rules, found full-time jobs only to discover that a paycheck no longer guarantees food on the table or a roof over their heads.
A warning here for Americans as well.
What happens to a country when doing everything “right” is no longer enough to build a decent life?
That is a Broken Country...
Broken Country is a new documentary examining how Canada went from one of the safest and most prosperous countries in the world to a nation struggling with an affordability crisis, homelessness, public disorder and a growing loss of faith in its institutions.

CLASHES BEGIN IN FRANCE: Footage from Lyon shows the first confrontations between police and protesters. According to Reuters, approximately 70,000 police officers have been deployed nationwide today ahead of anticipated unrest.
🎷🎷Weekly Holocaust book series: Escape from Sobibor, by Richard Rashke 🎷🎷
______________________________
🎷This is the book that finally brought the only successful mass uprising from a Nazi death camp into the light for English-language readers, and later inspired a major Hollywood film. It was published in 1982, almost forty years after the revolt itself.
🎷Sobibor was not a concentration camp. It was a pure extermination center in occupied Poland, built solely to murder Jews. Most of the victims were Polish Jews, large numbers of Dutch Jews, and transports from other countries. In September 1943 a group of Soviet Jewish prisoners of war arrived from Minsk. Among them was Alexander Pechersky, a Jewish Red Army lieutenant, musician, and ordinary man who would become the leader of the revolt.
🎷On 14 October 1943 Pechersky and Polish Jew Leon Feldhendler led a carefully planned uprising. Using axes, knives, and pure will, they killed SS officers one by one in the workshops, seized weapons, and opened the gates. Around 300 prisoners broke through the fences and minefields into the forests. Only about fifty lived to see the end of the war. Without that uprising, Sobibor would have remained almost completely silent.
🎷Richard Rashke built this book from first-hand voices. He interviewed eighteen survivors across several countries, including Pechersky himself in the Soviet Union. He also used Pechersky’s own 1945 pamphlet, the short, raw account written by the leader of the revolt while the war was still ending. The result is a vivid, human narrative of the daily terror inside the camp, the secret planning, the sudden violence of the uprising, and the desperate flight into the woods.
🎷After the escape the Nazis murdered the remaining prisoners, dismantled the camp, plowed the ground, and planted trees to erase every trace. For decades the site was neglected; a school was even built nearby as if nothing had happened there. In the Soviet Union the authorities worked hard to suppress the story. Pechersky lived until 1990, devoted his life to telling what had happened, yet never received the recognition he deserved in his own country. It took an outsider, Richard Rashke, and nearly four decades for the full story to reach a wide English-speaking audience.
🎷The 1987 film Escape from Sobibor, with Rutger Hauer (played Russian Jew) as Pechersky, introduced the uprising to a mass audience. But the book remains the deeper, more powerful account, grounded in the living testimony of the man who led it and those who survived it.
🎷🎷This is not distant history.
🎷It is first-hand proof that even in a place designed to erase every last person, prisoners still found the strength to rise up, kill their captors, and force the gates open.
🎷🎷Weekly series: Paintings by Jewish artists related to the Holocaust and WWII.🎷🎷
____________________________
🎷These works were created by Jewish artists, some who survived the camps and ghettos, some who were murdered, and some who painted from exile. Another way to remember the Holocaust and those who perished.
🎷 This week’s painting is from the series Execution: Babi Yar by Felix Lembersky.
🎷Felix Lembersky was a Soviet Jewish painter. His own parents were murdered by the Nazis in Berdychiv. Between 1944 and 1952 he painted several works about Babi Yar, the ravine near Kiev where, on September 29-30, 1941, German forces and their collaborators murdered more than 33,000 Jewish men, women, and children in just two days.
🎷In this painting, people stand at the edge of the ravine. One man raises his arm. Bodies already lie on the ground. The colors are dark and heavy. There is no drama, only silence and loss.
🎷These paintings were never allowed to be shown publicly in the Soviet Union. Today they remain mostly in private collections.
🎷Lembersky’s work is one of the earliest artistic responses to Babi Yar by a Jewish artist. At a time when the official story erased the Jewish victims, he refused to forget them.
Geez. I had to pull my magnifying glass to find us. 🔍

📍 Hebron, Judea and Samaria
⭕️ IDF Chief: Soldiers Killed in Hebron Attack Prevented a Much Larger Terrorist Massacre
IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir visited the scene of Friday’s deadly shooting near Yehuda Junction, confirming that an initial investigation indicates the soldiers’ actions prevented a major terrorist attack against Israeli civilians.
Key statements:
• Attack Prevented: Troops from the Ari Battalion intercepted the terrorist cell before it could carry out a potentially deadlier attack.
• Military Reinforcements: The IDF has deployed additional forces across Judea and Samaria and activated the 98th Division’s command headquarters in preparation for possible escalation.
• Counterterrorism Operations: Israeli forces will pursue everyone involved in the attack and continue dismantling terrorist networks.
• Nationwide Readiness: Zamir confirmed maximum military alert across all fronts ahead of a sensitive week, stressing that Israel will not allow its enemies to dictate its actions.
“We will continue to attack and take the initiative wherever necessary. Whoever tries to harm us should know that we will reach them.”
Zamir paid tribute to Sgt. Ron Yonatan Revitman and Sgt. Yuval Shay Suilem, who fell defending Israeli civilians, and wished the three wounded soldiers a swift recovery.
🎷🎷Short Read
We continue our weekly post of Yiddish songs from the Holocaust and WWII. 🎷🎷
______________________________________
Shelakhmones Hitlern
(Purim Gifts for Hitler)
🎷Laughter as resistance. That is what this song is.🎷
🎷 It is a humorous song that makes fun of Hitler. It compares him to Haman, the enemy who tried to destroy the entire Jewish people. The message is sharp and simple: like every enemy before him, Hitler will fall. The Jews will survive.
🎷The song brings Purim back to remind Jews of their history and culture. Purim is the natural framework for this kind of defiance because it is the story of Jews defeating those who aimed to wipe them out. The song puts Hitler in the same place as Haman and every other tyrant who tried and failed.
🎷 What makes this even more striking is the context. The Soviet government fought hard against religion and Jewish tradition. Most Soviet Jews no longer practiced or celebrated Purim. And yet during the war, Purim returns. It becomes the way to understand what is happening to the Jewish people.
🎷Purim tells them: you still have to laugh. Because if you are laughing at Hitler, Hitler cannot win.
🎷Humor was a vital part of Soviet Jewish folklore. Many Holocaust survivors said that what kept them alive was their ability to laugh. Purim gave them a framework for how to find something to laugh at when nothing was funny.
🎷Imagine yourself in a ghetto or a concentration camp, with little or no hope, seeing brutal death every day, and still singing this song.
This was resistance in its purest form. An act of defiance and survival under the worst conditions imaginable. Real courage.
And the song was written to end with the words Am Yisrael Chai, right in the middle of the Holocaust. Years ahead of the founding of Israel.
Never forget.
🎷Am Yisrael Chai.🎷
🎷Song lyrics
You’re not my first enemy.
Before you I’ve had many others.
I only need to add your name
To this little note, the one that begins with “Haman”.
Haman, Antiochus, Torquemada, Krushtevan,
Were all provoking the world before you (arrived).
A longer note , Haman’s, already exists,
There wouldn’t be enough paper
(for yours).
You all set a goal
to erase me from the world.
Except … my fate doesn’t depend on you,
Stalin has already tied your hands.
Haman, Antiochus, Torquemada, Krushtevan,
Were all provoking the world before you (arrived).
A longer note, Haman’s, already exists,
There wouldn’t be enough paper
(for yours).
Your angry dreams are wild and silly.
We are alive! And (we) will survive no matter what.
Your bleary end will be on Haman’s tree,
While the Jewish people will live on and on!
