What happened in the skies of Saudi Arabia yesterday is a reminder of what it looks like when Jews don’t ask anyone’s permission to live. On how it felt to witness yesterday's heroic events from the context of the global antisemtism crisis: henmazzig.substack.com/p/permission…

Watch as a flight simulator reenacts the terrifying drop that took place during the plane hijacking. Despite part of the tail fin rudder breaking off, the pilot told CNN that the remaining part of the fin was what was able to save the flight in landing safely in Saudi Arabia.

If the Free Palestine movement truly believes the whole world hates Israel, why do they insist a terrorist hijacking a plane full of Israelis is a false flag? They're so sad it didn't work, their cognitive dissonance is showing...

Zara has listed this costume for kids on their website, unmistakably resembling a Holocaust prison outfit. It has since been removed from their site. But somebody designed this, approved it, and posted it online. How could so many people not realize how deeply offensive this is?

BREAKING: Israel’s minister of defense: “The FlyDubai plane hijacking was a jihadist terror attack. The pilot wanted to crash the plane with all the passengers.”

The Free Palestine movement isn’t about helping Palestinians, it’s about despising Jewish resilience and strength.

If a country gets attacked by eight neighbours and is still standing, that doesn't mean it’s violent. It means it’s hard to kill. Just say that’s what you mean.

Maybe if you have a history of "mistakes" that reek of Holocaust distortion, you aren't the right person to comment on the Israeli Palestinian conflict, let alone advise the UN on it? 🤷‍♂️

"You were right" UK Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband says Free Palestine protesters were right. He saw the protests in Jewish neighborhoods & at synagoges, and the attacks on British Jews, and this is what he says? He cares more about a war in the Middle East than a war on his own citizens at home.

At a Free Palestine event in Stockholm, marchers carried a prop gate reading "Gaza" designed to look like the infamous Auschwitz concentration camp gate. Why do people insist on turning the horrific fate of the 6 million Jews murdered by Nazis into a prop? Do you not see how offensive this is?

The IDF published a video of a child transfering weapons into a civilian home in Gaza. Hamas doesn’t care about protecting Palestinians. They are actively endangering them, all to protect themselves. Hamas must be disarmed to ensure a dignified, safe future for Palestinians.

A prime minister who blamed Israel for an immigration crisis and a mayor who blamed Israel for police violence. I wish they were throwing their worn out conspiracy theories into the trash, instead of taxpayer dollars.

You're upset because Arab Israelis are playing for their home country's soccer team? I thought this movement was all about helping Palestinians. Why does it upset them so much that they have equal rights in Israel?

Irish 🇮🇪 goalie Gavin Bazunu announced he will likely sit out Ireland’s match against Israel tomorrow to help Gazans. I hope he will use the global attention he has garnered to call on Hamas to disarm. That is the crucial next step to securing peace for Israelis and Palestinians.

In Borough Park, NY 🇺🇸, a man was seen viciously beating a rabbi in an unprovoked attack. To see this hate and violence, especially during the High Holidays, is truly heartbreaking. How many more attacks until our leaders understand the gravity of the situation?

He wanted to show Israel’s strength. What came out sounded more like a rebuttal of his enemies’ talking points. Israel's accusers ended up setting the agenda for Netanyahu's biggest moment on the world stage this year. henmazzig.substack.com/p/what-i-wis…

People aren't planning protests on October 7th because of Israel's response to the massacre. They're doing it because they support what Hamas did.

I guess they just love being humiliated in public, so if yesterday wasn’t enough— round 2. Glenn Greenwald and Norman Finkelstein are a disgrace.

Someone had to tell Norman Finkelstein what a despicable man he is. I just wish I didn’t have to sit so close to him. My thoughts on the full exchange: substack.com/home/post/p-216940672

Soccer fans of Atlético Madrid make Nazi salutes as they chant "Ceuta must be defended." Nazi symbols are being mainstreamed in Europe. This should terrify everyone.

Today is Yom Kippur—the holiest day of the Jewish year. In Israel, the entire country pauses: no cars on the roads, no TV or radio, no flights in or out of Ben Gurion Airport. It's a day of prayer, reflection, and renewal. Gmar Chatima Tovah. 🙏✡️

Ed Sheeran had to remove the "B stage," which put him closer to the audience, from the setup of his first show after the Macklemore controversy. All the grandstanding about Macklemore didn't make a single Palestinian safer. But it did make large concerts in the United States more dangerous.

Jon Lovett is struggling with the word Zionism, which is fine. When Michael Moynihan presses him on how he is struggling because the word has been redefined for political use, he makes an entire argument to why everyone should be a Zionist. He was so close.

Antisemitic graffiti was found in a children's playground in Borehamwood, UK 🇬🇧. Both Borehamwood and neighboring town Elstree have been the victims of racist, antisemitic, and homophobic graffiti lately. Police are looking into a possible link between events.

Apparently, a screenshot and full-throated allegation are enough to counter video evidence of someone's antisemitic actions for the Free Palestine crowd. 11K likes and over 200K views. No real evidence provided. What a joke.

Free Palestine are championing Macklemore, an artist who dressed up as a Jewish caricature and hasn't had a hit in nearly a decade. They aren't just blind, they're seemingly deaf too.

"In solidarity with Macklemore" I'm sorry, shouldn't it be in solidarity with Palestinians? You know, the actual people this thing is supposed to be about? It really is just a trend to them.

An Irish radio station has reportedly stopped playing Ed Sheeran's music. Mysteriously, they didn't make any promises about starting to play Macklemore's.

By Free Palestine logic, Hasan Piker should be part of the Democratic Party's coalition even though he thinks America is worse than al-Qaeda. But Ed Sheeran should be canceled forever for affirming his support for Palestinians and peace for all. Do they believe in big tents or not?

I'm confused. Did Macklemore "torch his whole career" or show everyone agrees with his Hamas-approved narrative by getting 5 million likes on his Instagram post? Can they at least keep the story straight...

AOC blames Macklemore's firing on "a handful of stadium owners and the elite." But this isn't about censorship. It's about the erasure of Jewish & Israeli victims of a war Hamas started. Freedom of speech isn't freedom to be hateful with no consequences. Shouldn't a member of Congress know that?

If you believe that 5 million living, breathing humans not only tolerate Macklemore but enjoy his opinions/music then I have a bridge to sell you.

Hamas jumped on the opportunity to use NAZA, a documentary about civilian collateral damage in Gaza, to advocate for their cause. Hamas has asked that the International Criminal Court and United Nations use it as evidence. You know a documentary must be biased when actual terrorists support it.

Claiming ignorance about an obviously offensive costume isn’t an apology. It’s gaslighting the Jewish community about our pain. 12 years passed, yet Macklemore never learned how to listen to the people he harms.

The Free Palestine movement proudly endorses race science, whether by misusing outdated terms like "Semites" that were used by the Nazis, denying Jewish indigeneity to Israel, or celebrating the weaponization of DNA testing. Does anyone seriously still think this is a social justice movement?

Greta Thunberg is now using her "activism" to go after Ed Sheeran. She and the Free Palestine movement have made a quick and tactical maneuver to strike at his comments section. A devastating blow. Hopefully no burner phones had to be tossed in the ocean this time.

Kanye West. Macklemore. Ed Sheeran. Neo-Nazis in New York. One week, one rule: antisemitism is always bad. I said it about Kanye on Piers Morgan before it was convenient for you. Stop pretending.

If Macklemore is trying to prove he doesn't hate Jews, blaming a Jewish stadium owner for the backlash against his own terrible behavior probably isn't the best way to do it.

I think we have actually reached the point where Free Palestine cares more about litigating whether Ed Sheeran is a good musician than about tangibly making Palestinians' lives better.

Men wearing swastikas shouted "Heil Hitler" and "Free Palestine" in New York City. "Free Palestine" has never been about wanting Palestinians to have a better future. It's about justifying the murders of Jews.

Hen Mazzig @henmazzig.bsky.social · 13/09/2026
Why are you trying to litigate what is antisemitic instead of listening to Jews? Denying Jews’ historic connection to Israel is an act of hate. Especially when you do it to justify the violent attacks against us.

The founder of the most prominent Free Palestine org in NYC says Israel "shouldn't exist at all," in any form. This is not a movement to help Palestinians. It is a movement to end Jewish sovereignty.

Free Palestine's latest target? A memorial for 9/11 victims. A dancer in the annual Table of Silence dance performance ran through the memorial with a Palestinian flag. Calling attention away from the victims of a terror attack is not a good reflection on your movement's moral compass.
