Straight Facts
Dear Chaverot
I hope this finds you well. We have just welcomed in a new year in the Hebrew calendar and my fervent wish is for all of our hostages to be released immediately, our soldiers to all return safely and for this tsunami of antisemitism to end. It’s a reasonable ask!! Over the last year, I was immensely honoured to go on two WIZO missions – to Australia and Canada and what a privilege it has been to meet so many of you.
This past year we have seen an alarming rise of antisemitism and I have heard horrific accounts of personal experiences from so many of you.
One of the reasons I started Straight Facts, is to ensure that you are equipped and empowered with the facts to fight back against the misinformation and mistruths. Please share it with your Federations and communities.
In this edition, we debunk accusations of genocide as well as starvation, the killing of journalists and more.
I hope this is of service to you.
Warm regards
