My dad lives in Tel Aviv & has had an account with @HalifaxBank for 20 years. As 10,000's of Brits chant the maximalist genocidal ‘from the river to the sea Palestine will be free’ its incredible that @HalifaxBank declared Tel Aviv occupied Palestinian territory.

- I was excited to chat to @MattiFriedman for @fathomjournal about his fantastic new book about Leonard Cohen during the 1973 Yom Kippur War fathomjournal.org/book-review-wh… book is out on the 29th March
- Replying to @CalevBenDorUPDATE: dad received an apology call.

- Replying to @b_judahLockdown kept Israelis from driving like crazies hence preventing lots of accidents
- Excited to publish a @fathomjournal essay into religious-Zionism in Israel. The community spans a wide spectrum - from those terming the Pride Parade a gathering of ‘perverts’ to religious LGBT members. Other than head-covering what connects them? tinyurl.com/tbkk2cxs

- #IsraElex19 While Netanyahu is safe for now, the AG’s announcement is the equivalent of a pistol hung on the wall in an early act of a Chekov play. It will be going off in a later act. And it may well be deadly bicom.org.uk/blogpost/the-w…

I tried to reflect on what happened for @fathomjournalFathom deputy editor Calev Ben-Dor reflects on a tumultuous few days in Israel and tries to make sense of ‘a Prime Minister we’ve never seen before’. @CalevBenDor | fathomjournal.org/calev-ben-dors…

- Replying to @CalevBenDorUPDATE: Blown away by power of social media. I often write long-form well researched pieces about Israel & its politics – religious Zionism, Ben Gvir, Mansour Abbas etc - & if even 5% of the interest garnered here read those I’d be ecstatic fathomjournal.org/author/calev-b…
