So the US will now scan foreigners’ social media activity for “antisemitic”, by which they mean “anti-war-crime”, content, before handing out visas.

The Democrats, who recently gave Netanyahu an hours’ worth of standing ovations in Congress, won’t change this either.

So it’s sinking in that my inability to visit the US is going to be permanent…

Shouldn’t have joined Amnesty International as a teen!

Bluesky Social · Elia Ayoub (@ayoub.bsky.social)There should be little doubt left that to the US state, Jews only exist insofar as they can be used to suppress freedom of speech. Jews will be among those targeted by this as they have already been targeted by Zionist groups like AIPAC, Betar, Canary Mission etc https://www.uscis.gov/newsroom/news-releases/dhs-to-begin-screening-aliens-social-media-activity-for-antisemitism

ynetnews · IDF approves guided tours inside Syria military zone during PassoverBy Gilad Carmeli

My wife went with me to Sakura no Miya near Ōsaka Castle where the river is lined by sakura cherry trees. The Ōsaka Mint (大阪造幣局の桜の通り) by the river features several varieties of sakura (most of these photos).

I was concerned that the need for a mobile phone barcode to enter the Mint could exclude most foreigners. This was the only crowd control I've seen this year. If they do that in Kyōto with constant loudspeaker warnings, people won't find the peacefulness they came there for.

My wife looked up the Ōsaka Mint Website on the spot and got the barcode, so we could get in. She took some photos of me, so you can see how I look in my old age, shortly after the catheter operation that fixed my irregular heartbeat. I could walk for over four hours, feeling great since returning home!
