“Ours may become the first civilization destroyed, not by the power of our enemies, but by the ignorance of our teachers and the dangerous nonsense they are teaching our children. In an age of artificial intelligence, they are creating artificial stupidity.”—
My name is Emily Damari. I was held hostage in Gaza for over 500 days.
On the morning of October 7, I was at home in my small studio apartment in Kibbutz Kfar Aza when Hamas terrorists burst in, shot me and dragged me across the border into Gaza. I was one of 251 men, women, children, and elderly people kidnapped that day from their beds, their homes, and a music festival.
For almost 500 days I lived in terror. I was starved, abused, and treated like I was less than human. I watched friends suffer. I watched hope dim. And even now, after returning home, I carry that darkness with me – because my best friends, Gali and Ziv Berman are still being held in the Hamas terror tunnels.
So imagine my shock and pain when I saw that you awarded a Pulitzer Prize to Mosab Abu Toha.
This is a man who, in January, questioned the very fact of my captivity. He posted about me on Facebook and asked, “How on earth is this girl called a hostage?” He has denied the murder of the Bibas family. He has questioned whether Agam Berger was truly a hostage. These are not word games – they are outright denials of documented atrocities.
You claim to honor journalism that upholds truth, democracy, and human dignity. And yet you have chosen to elevate a voice that denies truth, erases victims, and desecrates the memory of the murdered.
Do you not see what this means? Mosab Abu Toha is not a courageous writer. He is the modern-day equivalent of a Holocaust denier. And by honoring him, you have joined him in the shadows of denial.
This is not a question of politics. This is a question of humanity. And today, you have failed it.”
~ Trump Withdraws U.S. Attorney Nominee, Whose Extremism Tested Limits for G.O.P. Senators
Senator Thom Tillis, a key Republican on the Judiciary Committee, said he would not support Ed Martin because of his work to defend the Jan. 6 rioters. ~
The new pope not a fan of Trump/Vance. He wants the US to take in illegal invaders because God doesn’t rank love??? So why does the Vatican have walls?
Tillis is gone soon. Trump’s daughter will be his replacement. 😀
And if the NYT is calling you an extremist, you’re doing things right.
The idiot Senator is showing his anti American side. Whether he likes it or not, those Jan 6ers had every right to counsel. I guess in the Senator’s world, and the NYTs, due process is only for illegals.

Us fisherman have a saying.
If there’s no pics, it never happened.
Same principle applies to “journalism” like this. No one on the record, no one who was even present, no pics, but they run with it anyway.
