If you can, please help us keep serving you.
We are on a mission to help as many people as possible better understand and become smarter about Judaism, Israel, and the Jewish world. If you have the means, please consider supporting our mission.
My name is Joshua Hoffman, and I am reaching out to you on behalf of Future of Jewish, the publication with a mission to help you better understand and become smarter about Judaism, Israel, and the Jewish world.
Since October 7th, we made Future of Jewish completely free to ensure that everyone — regardless of income, location, or status — has access to more inspiration, education, and connection with these topics.
We go far beyond the headlines and soundbites to bring you much-needed nuance, context, and depth that the mainstream media often ignores. In the past week, we have covered:
If Israel is an apartheid state, it’s the strangest one on Earth.
A missile struck this world-class institute in Israel, and the world shrugged.
In order to continue bringing you the best of Judaism, Israel, and the Jewish world, we kindly ask those who have the financial means to do so make a contribution:
A team based in Israel, we are proud to serve nearly 2 million people from 50-plus countries. Here is what some of our supporters say:
“Can’t live without Future of Jewish anymore at this point. I mean, I could of course, but I need it. Thanks for creating this space for Jewish and non-Jewish voices.” — Jenny S.
“Unique, informed, and a much-needed antidote to the tsunami of ignorance, anti-Israel sentiment and, sometimes, outright antisemitism now saturating our media.” — Ron C.
“Smart and detailed, current and historical, that helps educate me.” — Carol L.
“You present a reasonable, logical, creditable, and fair analysis of events, not just in Israel or the Middle East, but the entire world. I am not Jewish, but your work is very important.” — Séan G.
“You offer original thinking and solid research.” — Elinor B.
“I appreciate your analysis of the current situation for the Jewish people worldwide. You cover things that the mainstream media and others won’t tackle.” — Gail W.
“I support your work because we need to hear from someone who is in Israel and delivers the facts. As a non-Jewish American, I find the history of Israel amazing and you definitely put a tremendous amount of time and effort in providing that.” - Edward S.
“You have an excellent pool of writers and thinkers!” — Daniel F.
“I support you work because you make complete sense to me. You don’t waiver, you don’t virtue signal, you don’t worry that someone might cancel you out.” — Cheryl P.
Thank you for considering this opportunity to help us continue making and maximizing a meaningful impact!

Yer stack's brilliant Josh, so appreciative (would help $-wise if we could so instead I share links galore from yer site).
But as fer "helpin' " bigger-pich'er-wise... I think you might be able to ta tap the RIGHT person ta help us all to respond to posts like the one I'm sharin' below. Frankly, knowin' it ain't like it's bein' portrayed, I nevertheless feel HELP-less in combattin' this kind'a post I see DAILY that has all the ALT media nearly all of one mindset...
It's harrowin' (perhaps some are not legit) images traumatizin' folks an' thus they are SURE that Israel is a genocidal nation targetin' children, women. Oy! Many such postin's are from well-meanin' folks (MCM is one) who would not be open to generic contestin' but needs proof that:
a. gazans are not starvin'
b. IDF duz not target children or women just fer sadistic pleasure
c. it ain't genocide

This man has 40K subscribers or more....
We need photos ta disprove these narratives or at least put this one-sided presentation inta "qvestion"--I know it's far more complex....
Is this "nurse" 100% legit?
Undisputed... as it shall be--the BELIEF of the haters who wanna destroy Israel will go on...
In the comments you'll see one laydee asked for "proof" these folks were shot point-blank by the IDF an' she was attacked fer darin' ta "qvestion."
Find the right "writer" fer this job (takin' apart this stack-postin' with PROOF--photos, video, perhaps pallywood evidence--an' you'll be doin' a mitzvah ;-) Just speakin' up on behalf of Israel ain't cuttin' it.... I think we gotta show the story duz have two sides... respectfully (to the post's author)
Am Yisrael Chai & thanks for ALL ya do!
(parked it here as didn't know whar else ta put this ;-)
