The 2% Bullshit (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I keep seeing people posting “October 7 was not done by Gaza, but by Hamas. Only 2% of Gaza are Hamas.” This suggests most Palestinians are peaceful and Hamas is a small organization Israel uses as an excuse to destroy Gaza for its Greater Israel project or something of the sort. The actual percent of militants in Gaza is closer to 2.6% but this number nevertheless seems to vindicate Gaza. That is, if you have shit for brains.Thanks for reading! Subscribe for free to receive

The Yom Kippur Walk (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Several people asked me to write about my annual Yom Kippur walk tradition, so here it is.Yom Kippur is a magical day in Israel. On that day, there are almost no cars on the roads and for 25 hours the country looks like a zombie movie, except instead of zombies you have folks ambling about in their white holiday clothes and kids riding around on bicycles and outlandish helmets with cute cat ears, little red horns or lizard crests.
