Nablus is under lockdown. Checkpoints are blocking emergency care– patients turned away, pregnant women delivering in ambulances, one woman losing her fetus. An extended IDF operation could bring weeks more closures and escalation. 1/2

Israeli TV is distorting West Bank violence, framing armed settler terrorists as innocent wanderers who “stumbled into” a Palestinian ambush. When officials call on air for destroying Palestinian cities, settlers listen, and the media frames it as “revenge” instead of armed terror with impunity. 1/2
Israeli government officials are openly bragging about mass destruction in Southern Lebanon. 1/2
This back-and-forth does not have to continue. It can be brought under control if the parties decide to pursue what’s actually in the best interests of Americans, Israelis and civilians across the Middle East. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/07...
We disagree with Bret Stephens on plenty. But on settler violence, the message is clear across the political and pro-Israel spectrum: This has become a serious threat to Palestinian lives, Israeli security and Israel’s future. 1/2 www.jta.org/2026/07/29/u...
How much destruction is enough? If massive bombardment campaigns haven’t ousted Hamas, continuing down the same path won’t produce a different result. The Trump Administration must press both Israel and Hamas to honor their ceasefire commitments and pursue a political path to ending this war.
Inside the Democratic Party, voters and lawmakers are increasingly questioning the status quo around Israel. @jeremybenami.bsky.social puts it bluntly: The combination of “the right-wing Netanyahu and AIPAC” has become “a toxic brew” that has helped turn Israel into a wedge issue for Democrats.
This morning’s @nytimes.com The Daily takes a hard look at AIPAC’s huge spending in Democratic primaries. The real problem? The views AIPAC spends millions to defend are increasingly unpopular with American voters. Worth a listen: www.nytimes.com/2026/07/29/p...
The old “Israel right or wrong” consensus in the Democratic Party has collapsed, but “Israel is always wrong” isn’t replacing it either. As @JeremyBenAmi told @CNN: “70 or 80% of the party wants to meet the needs of both Israelis and Palestinians.” www.cnn.com/2026/07/26/p...
One Palestinian family’s nightmare is a window into a larger reality: State-enabled settler violence is making life for Palestinians unbearable. We cannot accept a future for Israel defined by settler violence, occupation and dispossession. That is not the future Israelis or Palestinians deserve.
This fall, Palestinian farmers in the occupied West Bank will harvest their olive trees under the threat of settler violence and displacement. 1/2
Protect The HarvestWe are a global coalition of activists and allies standing in solidarity with Palestinian communities in the West Bank for the 2026 olive harvest. Each year, Palestinian and Israeli grassroots groups ...protecttheharvest.netFrom here on out, the Democratic Party’s approach to Israel has to be built on lessons learned. 1/2
Political stalemate cannot become an excuse for endless Palestinian suffering. For families in Gaza, daily life has become a bureaucratic maze where food, shelter and medicine depend on shifting rules. The Trump Administration must use leverage over the Israeli government to break the deadlock.
Netanyahu doesn’t speak for the majority of American Jews when he denies Palestinians basic dignity and freedom. He doesn’t speak for us when he embraces a future in which Israelis live by the sword forever. As Trump and Netanyahu meet today in DC, make your voice heard:
