Note: this post is being continually updated as new information surfaces. Last updated November 10th 2023.
As you may have heard, this weekend Jews saw the greatest single-day loss of Jewish life since the Holocaust.
At the time of this writing, more than 800 Jewish civilians have been executed in cold blood, thousands injured, and over 130 kidnapped.
On what should have been the joyful holiday of Simchat Torah, the terrorist group Hamas carried out multi-pronged attacks against Jewish civilians in Israel. It began when Hamas infiltrated southern Israel and opened fire at a music festival. From eyewitness accounts,
Shooting began. Many were executed on the spot. 260 bodies have been found, so far, on the site of the rave.
Many of the young men and women started running in the flat expanse of the western Negev desert. Faced with the spectacle of kids fleeing for their lives on a largely flat surface, the terrorists began rounding up the rest of their victims.
Others were captured and bound and kidnapped. “I saw videos with a male getting held by a group of Arab kids. Like, they’re like 16, 17,” one survivor recalled. “They’re kids, but they’re young men already, and they’re holding this guy, and he looks as his girlfriend is being mounted on a bike and driven away from him. God knows what she’s going to experience … Women have been raped at the area of the rave next to their friends bodies, dead bodies.”
Several of these rape victims appear to have been later executed. Others were taken to Gaza. In photographs released online, you can see several paraded through the city’s streets, blood gushing from between their legs.
One survivor records what happened: "The terrorist entered and sprayed us at point-blank range. I was in the second row. Everyone in the first and second row died, apart from me. Third and fourth row were also shot."

Still more videos and images surfaced of women with their limbs broken, stripped and bloodied, their heads blown out by a bullet, stuffed into truck beds and paraded around Gaza:
Soon, things grew even darker.
Hamas infiltrated homes, kibbutzim, and small towns. They executed children in front of their families:

Emergency responder Yossi Landau testifies that at the Be'eri kibbutz, they recovered "about 280 bodies. I would say 80% were tortured", including "two piles of 10 children each, tied to the back, and burned to death."
He testifies later of the first house they entered:
"The first house we saw was a couple, a father and mother, sitting there, knees on the floor, but now head down, hands tied to the back. On the other side of the dining room was seven year old boy, and a girl, I'd say about six years old, sitting against the parents. Hands tied to the back. Same position. Their bodies were tortured...and when I mean tortured, I would say missing body pieces. An eye just taken out. Fingers being...[crying]. I'm not finished. In the middle, there was a table. Those terrorists were sitting and eating the meal the Saturday meal that was prepared for this meal. They took it and ate the meal while torturing these children."

The leftwing Huffington Post piled on, comparing Israel to Nazi Germany.
Congratulations, Huffington Post.

You’ve perfected Holocaust trivialization. pic.twitter.com/cBaxh4yRgH
And this is not in isolation, but a continual pattern of the Times using whitewashed euphemisms for the demonic depravity of anti-Jewish violence. The New York Times wasn't alone in covering for Hamas. The Anti-Defamation League's Jonathan Greenblat appeared on MSNBC to call out their rationalizing the demonic depravity of Hamas.
Jonathan Greenblatt of the ADL rips into MSNBC:

A professor praised in the New York Times mocked reports of infants burned in ovens.
This is Rifat Alareer, the Gaza professor valorized in the @nytimes as a bridge builder.

The dean of the prestigious Columbia University Law school whitewashed the demonic depravity.
The dean of Columbia Law School released a statement today whitewashing the worst terrorist attack in Israeli history. It was far more muted than a statement she released earlier this year about—I kid you not—a swastika in a school bathroom.🧵 https://t.co/duHE8bJSp1

Likewise, Ryna Workman, the student president of the NYU Law School Bar Association refused to condemn the demonic depravity, instead blaming Israel and the Jews.

After the October 7th attacks, the Oakland Education Association released a statement in support of the demonic depravity, condemning "the genocidal and apartheid state of Israel":
Imagine being a Jewish parent (me) and wondering how teachers in Oakland feel about Jewish children after their union puts this out. I KNOW many teachers do not support and I hope they will speak out like us parents. Shame on OEA for this blatant antisemitism. pic.twitter.com/7LhLa4JX7G

Many Jews are waking up to the reality of ugly left-wing antisemitism and its praise for Hamas' demonic activity:
History repeats itself. But progressive Jews like me are changing our minds. Full story with @TheFP. https://t.co/QhuJjdhpIZ

Not only has the Southern Poverty Law Center been eerily quiet about pro-Hamas activism, a "senior researcher" goes to a militant leftist rally looking for right wing activity. pic.twitter.com/7KienzQa3Q

So glad to see Sarah Silverman waking up to the reality of the situation.

We should not make fun of people for being blind to the truth, we should welcome them in with open arms when they finally see it. pic.twitter.com/7VvlhzvgC3
Not like this is the first time in our history this has happened, but better late than never for the epiphany, I suppose. https://t.co/HNRyjEp1ua pic.twitter.com/z1QszkKl04

"Do any other Jewish leftists feel betrayed right now?"https://t.co/v5bmBkN3MC
“Witnessing the decolonisers’ zeal for obliterating the Jewish state, political scientist @wil_da_beast630 quipped, 'De-colonization is just ethnic cleansing, but woke.'"https://t.co/SBcnhBTm59

Confession: I’ve incorrectly assumed the far left doesn’t have an antisemitism problem. I believed our ranks were filled with people like me that opposed Netanyahu’s far right policies, not Israel itself.

That is clearly not true.
I’m embarrassed I didn’t see this sooner.
I'll never be a Republican. That's not my view of the world or government's purpose.

But to finally recognize that some of the most insidious anti-semitism in America is coming from within my own party, that feels like a profound betrayal I'm really having trouble reconciling.
As a (secular) Jewish leftie, and longtime critic of Israel’s treatment of the Palestinians, I thought people were conflating such criticism from the left with antisemitism.

I now see I was terribly wrong.
There is rampant, raging racist Jew-hate on the left.
I’m so very sorry.
No words can express what we see. Reality speaks for itself.
The world will forget all this one day soon, but Israel will not. I hope Christians will not forget what happened today and stand by the Jewish people. Like Nazy Germany before it, the genocidal, demonic spirit of anti-Semitism and all its depravities must be destroyed, or it will destroy us. I hope Israel has the stomach to destroy Hamas forever for what it's done.
Blessed are you Lord, God of our fathers
Who causes the wicked to fall into the traps they set for the righteous
Preserve, protect, and defend Your people, Israel
As you have in ages past, do also today
