Remember my Ukrainian Jewish cubemate in US was saying that there has never been violent Jewish extremists and would not believe the stories of Jewish Terrorists in the 40s in Palestine before Israel was created.

I guess this is yet another mentally ill person, who can't be connected to any movement or organization or country and no one will ask every Rabbi in the world to condemn her action as they used to demand from every Muslim in the world.

It wouldn't surprise me if she isn't even and is yet another christian full of and rage against Palestinians, and .

PS. What kind of sick fuck hates cute little kids so much that she tried to drown them? It's just so disgustingly sick.

The titular character of Daniel Chacon's new short story collection, The Last Philosopher in Texas: Fictions and Superstitions, came to him as he was walking his dog in Pecos, the windblown West town where his father once lived. https://www.texasobserver.org/the-chicano-time-traveler/

Courtney Gore, the co-host of a right-wing online talk show, won a seat on a Texas school board on the basis that she would undo leftist indoctrination and get rid of educational materials with inappropriate messages about sexuality and race. Then she took office and actually read the curriculum, finding that the subject matter simply taught children “how to be a good friend, a good human.” The Texas Tribune talked to her about why she ran for office, what she thinks is behind the push to take over school boards, and the backlash she's faced since speaking out against the ultra-right element of the Republican party.

Did you know it was none other than Texas Observer matriarch Molly Ivins, one of his most piercing critics, who gifted Rick Perry with his enduring nicknames—“Governor Goodhair” and “The Coiffure”?

In a sprawling new biography, Brandon Rottinghaus revives the long, large, and colorful tale of Perry’s rise and reshaping of politics. https://www.texasobserver.org/rick-perry-biography-governor-politician/
