May be the first time in history a Zionist bombed and no children were killed.

Jason Alexander says he feared visiting Palestine as a Jew until 10 Palestinians protected him during an Israeli army raid in Ramallah
“How much of a risk would I be taking as an American Jew walking into Palestinian cities? And Mohammed said, ‘The greatest dishonor that could happen to a religious Muslim is to allow harm to come to an invited guest’”
“And he said, ‘Jason, if they had to, they’ll take a bullet for you.’ And what was so interesting about that trip is, we were having lunch in Ramallah with a bunch of actors and artists at a sort of outdoor restaurant”
“And the Israeli army was conducting a raid on a bank that they thought had terrorist ties a couple blocks away. And they must have, to announce themselves, just shot into the air. And I remember 10 of those guys at the table surrounding me. And I went, ‘Oh my God, he wasn’t kidding. They’re not going to let me get hurt’”

Jessica Tisch needs to go - she has been and remains an enemy to entire communities, under whom the NYPD has transformed into an even more deeply fascistic force meant to repress anti-reactionary New Yorkers. Keeping her on was the Mayor’s greatest mistake and greatest betrayal to large swathes of the movement that shouldered him & victory.
This horrific incident and the footage from tonight, man…
Rozario’s mother addressed the mayor directly: “You came to my home and said you would be a different kind of mayor. We feel betrayed by you. Jessica Tisch ... let Alongi retire without a trial. It seems like you are just letting this happen.” thecityreporter.nyc/2026/10/…

The Prime Minister should call Israel's campaign of destruction in Gaza what it really is: a genocide.

“I am not a victim. Ed Sheeran is not a victim. Pink is not a victim. We have careers, money, opportunities, safety and audiences around the world. Whatever consequences any of us face for what we say, we get to go home to our families. The victims are the Palestinian people.”

“Was he supposed to just cancel the tour?” Yes. Ed Sheeran has more money than god. He could’ve canceled the tour, paid out the whole crew for the work they’d miss, and still not even notice a change in his bank account.

This is child-like ignorance and inanity and embarrassing to see from a Supreme Court Justice. We are governed by right-wing idiots at all the highest levels of our government.
U.S. Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh on why 9/11 terrorists attacked: "They hate our constitution...they hate our values, they hate our freedom of speech."
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Osama Bin Ladens manifesto: "You are the nation who, rather than ruling by the Shariah of Allah in its Constitution and Laws, choose to invent your own laws as you will and desire. You separate religion from your policies..."

My wife when I tell her that the movie will actually answer all of the questions she’s asking.

A group of neighborhood kids waited for Mayor Zohran Mamdani to finish at the campfire, and the moment he said hello, everything turned into joyful chaos.
There were screams, hugs and autograph requests coming from every direction, and the @nycmayor stopped to spend time with them before leaving Inwood Hill Park.
The sweetest possible ending to the evening.

We need to make filmmaking more affordable.
That’s exactly why non-profits such as the Millennium Film Workshop are so important.
Memberships start at just $80/year for unlimited access to cameras, workshops, and community screenings.
Because everyone should have access to the magic of filmmaking.
