Too Extreme for the IDF”: How Israel’s National Security Minister Came to Power

Itamar Ben-Gvir was rejected from mandatory service in the Israeli military for being too extreme.

This video is a reminder that you don’t owe civility to your oppressor. You owe the truth to the people buried underneath the rubble. As always, you guys are the only sponsors I have.

A reminder that small, daily acts of solidarity add up… whether it’s sharing a fundraiser, correcting a lie on social media, and just showing up when it counts. That’s how movements grow.
