The need to denigrate the victor after a political loss and claim one man defines the party or nation - as championed by Trump and now Netanyahu - has become a frightening new norm with real dangers for the democratic process. https://t.co/bt5RsIZKpt

Last month, 185 Israeli scientists, intellectuals & activists, inc. 10 Israel Prize winners, urged the ICC to investigate possible Israeli war crimes independently & not to rely on the Israeli government’s own accounts. I must admit I didn’t even see this. https://t.co/YBOEQ84w0l

One lesson from Israel: to defeat an autocrat who attacks democratic norms and institutions, oppositions need to unify under a big tent. In Israel's case, that even led Lapid to compromise on who would start as PM, but he understood the imperative of getting Bibi out first.

How not to do journalism. Brian Stelter literally asks her if Israel bombing the AP/Al Jazeera building is a “lesson for journalists” to wait for IDF spin before judging. I just can’t. The bias is jumping off the screen. https://t.co/ejia1zZ1OU
