Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is weighing US requests for a short humanitarian ceasefire, the Hebrew-language Kan News reports.

An Israeli official says a ceasefire of several hours is possible.

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken is due in Israel tomorrow to discuss a ceasefire, among other issues.

it’s cool that all the US politicians have avoided saying ceasefire for weeks in favor of “humanitarian pauses” only for the Israel to settle on “short ceasefire”

The government is now pushing a law that will allow them to revoke the citizenship of anyone caught "supporting terrorists" online during wartime.

This was inspired by the arrest of an actress who posted Instagram stories "supporting terrorism" - one of them was the video of the old lady hostage driving around in Gaza with hamas with laughing emojis, and the other was an image of the fence getting rekt with the caption "let's go Berlin style."

In January of 2017, I snapped this photo. I don’t know why I snapped it at the time, but something in my brain told me to save this image. I stood there, looking at the view across a beautiful meadow at what my tour guides described as “the enemy”. I remember feeling confused. I was 24, fresh out of college. I had no enemies.

I had just spent 7 days going around Israel, all the way from Mount Hermon in the Golan Heights to a kibbutz in the Negev. I was introduced to loads of new friends, foods, and a culture that was so welcoming and familiar to me because of my upbringing as a Jew. I was on a “birthright” trip - a free trip to Israel that is entirely funded by donors and the government. I had a great and memorable time. I fell in love with Israel. I fell for it all.

Just a few days prior to this photo being taken, I sat in a classroom in Jerusalem where I was lectured for a few hours on the “conflict” with Palestinians. They went on about the first and second intifada. They showed us gruesome images of innocent Israelis murdered. They made it clear who they wanted us to hate.

I stood there overlooking that meadow with Gaza in the distance on January 18th, 2017. We stood at the Black Arrow monument - it stood there to commemorate the actions of the IDF and the memory of 8 Israelis killed in battle. But the details they gave us on that battle were foggy. Operation Black Arrow was carried out in Gaza in 1955 as a retaliation for one Israeli civilian being killed. For that one death, they killed 38 Egyptians and wounded countless more. It set the stage for Israel’s reputation for harsh and unbalanced responses.

I looked this info up on the bus on the way to a nearby town for dinner. I remember feeling this sinking feeling that I was only given one side of the story. Not just being in Israel for birthright, but growing up with a Jewish education going to Hebrew school. We were only ever taught one way of thinking. We were brainwashed from childhood to believe that we were the peacemakers and they were the attackers.

I knew in the back of my mind that the existence of Israel was inherently problematic, but I allowed it to be clouded by a culture and language that I grew to love for a good amount of time after birthright. But as my presence on the internet grew, so did my awareness of the perspectives of those who were on the other side of all of this. People having their homes taken from them, people displaced, people humiliated, and people killed in cold blood. Some bad people but overwhelmingly innocent people. The hardest pill to swallow for me is that I made Israel part of my identity since birthright, all to come to understand that Israel has always been the oppressor.

Over a year ago I made a twitlonger about taking down my Israeli flag in my apartment. I talked about it sending the wrong message on stream. I still heavily identify with being ethnically Jewish, but we have all hopefully come to understand that Zionism is not the same as Judaism. I hope we can also learn that Anti Zionism is not Anti Semitism. I don’t think I will ever go back to Israel. I may lose friends I made, and a small piece of me that I identified with for a long time, but I don’t think that I’m owed that piece of me as much as others are owed their land, lives, and peace of mind. My “birthright” is far less valuable than people’s rights to live peacefully.

If this message is for anyone, it’s for Jews that are so convinced that the world wants another Holocaust that they’re willing to turn a blind eye to one child being killed every 10 minutes. Yes, anti semitism exists, but supporting genocide and apartheid makes it worse. Open your minds, step out of your shoes for once. Also, I’m truly sorry for staying silent about this until now.

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken will push Israel to agree to humanitarian pauses to the fighting in Gaza, The New York Times reports.

Citing White House officials, the report says that Blinken will not discuss a “ceasefire,” but a series of short windows without attacks in order to allow hostages to be released and for aid to be distributed.

hmm yes hamas is going to release hostages so attacks "stop" for 5 minutes
