This is written for all of those who consider themselves allies, yet who haven’t challenged their own friends and colleagues when they downplay, deny, or remain silent about antisemitism. Please read and share.

Advice to people who are leaving X: Don’t deactivate your account there or someone else can pick up your account (and they do, if you had a large following there, and nefariously pretend they are you). Unless it doesn’t matter to you professionally or personally if someone impersonates you.

King Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands condemned the attacks last night in Amsterdam, saying, “We failed the Jewish community of the Netherlands during World War II, and last night we failed again.”

We light candles globally in this darkness.

Wishing people of all religions and cultures a peaceful, healthy weekend.

To brighter times, friends and colleagues

Last night anti-Israel mobs targeted innocent Jews in Amsterdam, brutally beating them at a soccer game.

With the anniversary of Kristallnacht just days away.

I’ve written an article about non-Jews who dismiss Jew hatred. (Pending)

Are you allies or are you complicit?

Enough is enough.

Those who voted for Trump don’t give a damn about women’s rights, the environment, economics, health, truth, justice, democracy.

They chose an incompetent convicted felon, rapist, liar—a danger to us ALL—over a competent, honest, educated woman.

And Elon Musk cheered him on.

Ending the week with a home visit to a 100 year old patient to give him his flu shot and Covid19 booster.

Old fashioned home visits to seniors and to palliative patients is truly a joy of family medicine.

Noting nice things, not just broken things, in Canadian health care.

I’m posting this for non-Jews in Canada who say they are allies against antisemitism.

Canadian Jewish leaders and Jewish community wrote a handbook to help *you* (people, organizations) to understand antisemitism.

Please sit down and read it, share it.

That’s a wrap on #Jabapalooza! Two hundred more Ottawans—infants, children, adults, seniors, pregnant patients, immunocompromised patients—all have an extra layer of protection from flu and Covid, with the help of med students.

Have a peaceful, healthy weekend.

Today we mourn the horrific Oct 7 terrorist attack on Israel and the captivity of innocent hostages.

‎Hamas counted on the world rallying against Jews, against Israel.

Severely high rates of #COVID19 in much of #canada as children and educators return to school. We don’t have access yet to vaccine boosters. Most people don’t mask or even bother staying home when sick.

This is going to be a difficult autumn.

With long-term health consequences.

Kaplan-Myrth: I fly a rainbow flag, and I will move heaven and earth to stand up for 2SLGBTQ rights, but as a Jew and Israeli it is not safe for me in Ottawa's Pride parade. Unless it is safe for everyone, including the Jewish community, no organization should participate in ⁦‪@FierteCapPride‬⁩. Many organizations have withdrawn. Waiting for ⁦‪@OCDSB‬⁩.

So many patients sick right now and none of them aware that Covid19 is surging in Canada and globally.

We need leaders in health and the media to get the message out to the public. The problem isn’t lack of tools, or even lack of caring, it is lack of communication.

And we also need to be honest that we’re imperfect. Some of us are extremely responsible, but nobody’s perfect.

Hi, I’m Nili, a 49 year old Jewish dual citizen (US/Canada). As an MD, I care about reproductive rights, gun control, BIPOC rights, 2SLGBTQ, disability rights, health care, education, and climate.

I’ll be voting for Kamala Harris @kamalaharris

Who’s with me, abroad?

Serious question for Canadians:

In the 1930s friends, neighbours, and colleagues were silent as Jews were banned and targeted. That ended with six million Jews murdered.

1/4 of Canadians now believe the Holocaust was exaggerated (per recent poll). Are the other 3/4 speaking up?

If your answer is that you won’t speak up because we’re Zionist, or some other excuse, the question that follows is what you think will happen this time with rampant antisemitism. Have you learned nothing from history?
