You’d think if you wanted his name to be erased, you wouldn’t bother to quote him, much less live your life trying to ensure that your state continues to follow his example.

I don’t think the Biden administration ever said that the Palestinians were at risk of a genocide, or that what Israel was doing was insufficient to dispel doubts about it committing a genocide, or that South Africa’s case was plausible, as the ICJ said.
A claim is often made by Shi’i polemicists - of both the Imami and the Zaydi variety - that Sunni Hadith experts are prone to flatly dismiss a report simply because one of its transmitters happens to be a Shi’i. The problem with this claim is that there are rather stark

I wish this were true. But I don’t think Ben Gvir and Smotrich co. are so easily deceived. Ben Gvir said it himself not so long ago: “Mr. Prime Minister, if we don’t resettle Gaza, then it was all for nothing.”
And whether we like the guy or his worldview or not, he’s right.
One upside to the ongoing resurgence of Akhbari Shi’ism is that people are paying closer attention to the contents of Twelver Hadith compilations. The results have already been quite eye-opening.
For instance, take this report from the Nawadir Al-Mu’jizat of pseudo-Ibn Jarir

general ruling of permissibility; the imam was asked specifically about singing *during weddings or other joyous occasions*, which would imply that he didn’t have a favorable opinion of singing outside of such contexts.

It is shameful that you have allowed yourself to descend to the moral level of Hamas. Indiscriminate attacks against a civilian population are wrong. No ifs, ands or buts.

This is absolutely true. I’ve been warning about this for months, and the sad fact is: the main culprits who got this process going were all influential members of the Jewish community who endangered all of us - but especially the Jewish community - for their own personal gain.
