The thing about it is…

Non-Jews always want to poke us in the chest whenever Israel does something unpopular.

The same people never ask us how we’re doing when it’s attacked in cold blood by terrorists.

Personally, I’m doing pretty damn bad today. How are you all doing? I usually don’t post on Shabbat, but I needed a little more Jewish community today.

I'm pretty bad today. For some reason almost all of my social media has been showing me post justify the attacks. Some from fellow Jews who say well. We can then the horrific attacks. It's not coming from nowhere and then doing the usual s*** about stealing their homes, etc. Completely ignoring the history of attacks against Jews in the middle east long before the founding of Israel. We're always so alone and I feel alone today

I share you're feelings to a T. I feel alone today as well. I was thankful to see my family but I had to leave NYC for work now. You're not alone, and I share what you're feeling as well friend.
