#Fauda è la serie da vedere in questo momento. La quinta stagione, disponibile dall'8 settembre 2026 su #Netflix, è straordinaria lungo i suoi 11 episodi che si dipanano tra Marsiglia, la Siria e Israele. È un racconto sincero, intenso, drammatico di una realtà cruda in cui il cuore di Israele batte e sanguina al tempo stesso. Gli episodi 7 e 8 sono incentrati sul 7 ottobre 2023 e forse per molti spettatori internazionali questa è la prima occasione di confrontarsi con l'orrore di quel giorno. Grazie a tutti gli attori e alle attrici di Fauda, agli autori, ai sceneggiatori e al regista. È stato un atto di coraggio e di grande forza morale girare questa nuova stagione.

Israel’s election by numbers
🇮🇱🗳️ Israel’s 26th Knesset elections by numbers:
From hundreds of millions of ballot slips to free public transport on Election Day, preparations are underway for Israel’s biggest ever elections!

Australia accused of ‘aiding’ Hamas terrorists by giving millions to ‘tainted’ UN agency (UNRWA) every year, says top Israeli diplomat @AvivEzra.

For centuries, Jews were singled out, demonized, and held to standards demanded of no one else. Today, Israel has become the Jew among nations at the United Nations.
Israel is entitled to the same standards of justice as every other nation—no more and no less.
Antisemitism does not become acceptable because it is stamped with the seal of the UN. This so-called Commission of Inquiry is a biased, illegitimate inquisition. We reject it. @AmbUNReform

Today, the UN inquiry on Israel accused the Jewish state of “crimes against humanity.” Despite claiming to be an impartial investigative body, Commissioner Chris Sidoti has previously called for Israel to be “demilitarized” — and he denied that Israel holds democratic elections.

Nu ben ik echt benieuwd of ook maar één Vlaamse krant een interview zal doen met Joel Kotek. Hij is genocide-expert en professor aan @ULBruxelles en schreef meerdere boeken en artikels over de Holocaust en andere genocides. Nu brengt hij een nieuw boek uit (ook in het Nederlands) waarin hij de beschuldiging van genocide in Gaza fors en ondubbelzinnig tegenspreekt.
Al meer dan drie jaar laten Vlaamse kranten geen énkele expert aan het woord die niet meegaat in de genocide-onzin. Nooit een Jeffrey Herf, Norman Goda, Benny Morris, Steven Pinker, Fania Oz-Salzberger of John Spencer. Maar elke week wel een nieuwe anti-zionistische Jood die berouwvol komt biechten: “Ja, snik, het is genocide en apartheid en etnische zuivering en alles wat je nog wil horen van mij.”
Dit is een ongekend schuldig verzuim van de voltallige Vlaamse media, van @destandaard tot @demorgen, @tijd, @HLN_BE en @Nieuwsblad_be. In Nederland is het ook erg, maar daar heb je nog @telegraaf en heel af en toe een tegendraads opiniestuk in @nrc of @volkskrant. In Frankrijk heb je @LePoint, waar mijn essay over de bloedsmaad van genocide probleemloos verscheen (lepoint.fr/debats/israel-com…), dat overal in ons taalgebied werd geweigerd. In Duitsland is het debat sowieso diverser en bestaat er absoluut geen consensus over de "genocide". Zelfs in @nytimes heb je Bret Stephens die al deze onzin krachtig tegenspreekt.
Maar het ergst van al is ons achterlijke tochtgat aan de Noordzee.

Wikipedia's "Gaza war" article was stripped of about 17,000 characters documenting the October 7 atrocities, including evidence of sexual violence. What remains is one line saying terrorists "reportedly engaged" in such violence, which is an attempt to present it as contested information rather than an established fact.
Banned editors' work is still largely in place. Read ADL's new report: adl.org/resources/report/dam…

Mehdi Hasan's Zeteo has a new documentary out on AIPAC, asking whether the "Israel lobby" is really an agent of a foreign power.
A shadowy, fabulously rich network pulling Washington's strings: it's one of the most enduring antisemitic tropes of our age. So I did Mehdi a favour and checked the numbers.
Over the past decade, Israel ranked tenth for registered foreign lobbying spending, behind China, Japan, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the UAE and even the Marshall Islands. AIPAC came 191st among Washington's lobbies. The entire pro-Israel lobbying category spent less than gun-rights groups, and a fraction of what the drug companies spend.
Elections? AIPAC's super PAC spends serious money. But it competes in a system where outside groups have poured in nearly $2 billion this cycle, and six organisations have each spent over $60 million.
Strangely, Zeteo seems far less curious about Riyadh, Beijing or Doha.

There's far more support for Sally Rooney, who wants to fund a proscribed terrorist group, than for John Banville, who pulled out of a Spanish literary festival due to their discriminatory policies against "Zionists." And that tells you all you need to know

Brad Lander should win an Oscar for his olive harvest detention performance in Israel.
And Mayor Mamdani deserves a Best Supporting Actor trophy for using the opportunity to spread Hamas talking points and the outrageous "genocide" lie.
Today, Brad Lander, rabbis, and other New Yorkers accompanied Palestinian farmers during the olive harvest. For that, they were detained by the Israeli government.
Harvesting olives is not illegal. The occupation is.
I am thankful that Brad has been released. But other New Yorkers remain detained, and they must be released immediately.
The same Israeli government detaining them has committed a horrific genocide against Palestinians, killing more than 74,000 people over the last few years alone.
The detention of these New Yorkers must end. The occupation must end. The genocide must end.

🚨 OBAMA FUELING DEMOCRATS’ BETRAYAL OF ISRAEL
NY Post columnist Michael Goodwin argues Barack Obama helped normalize anti-Israel hostility within the Democratic Party.
Speaking in Belfast, Obama claimed Jews “took land off people” and accused Israel of surrendering the “moral high ground.”
Netanyahu shot back: “Our land is not stolen land.”
Goodwin also highlights Obama’s ties to NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani and his endorsement of Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed, who declared Israel is “not actually our friend” and accused its military of “full war crimes, genocide.”
Elisha Wiesel, son of Holocaust survivor Elie Wiesel, challenged Obama’s historical narrative, citing Jewish ties to Hebron, Israel’s acceptance of the 1947 UN partition plan, past peace offers and the 2005 Gaza withdrawal.
Goodwin argues Obama’s influence has helped turn hostility toward Israel into mainstream Democratic politics.

I am not Jewish. But I am a proud Israeli citizen. I live in Tel Aviv. Despite the world having extremely opinionated views about the country I live in, few people I have come across on X (that don’t live here) know little of substance about Israel apart from their warped sense of history and reality. This is the first post of a series I will write entitled Everything You Think You Know About Israel is (Probably) Wrong. The points are not in any particular order. Spread the word.
Most Israelis (just over 50%) are not white. The devastating impact on European Jews of the Holocaust meant that the newly formed Israel in 1948 was largely populated by Jews fleeing persecution in Muslim-ruled countries predominantly in the Middle East and North Africa. These are known as Mizrahi Jews and when the State of Israel was formed they made up 80% of the Jewish population living here.
Jews have had a continuous presence in the land of Israel since around 1208 BCE, that’s 3,200 years — long before the creation of the state of Israel in 1948. The Muslim faith, in contrast, dates back 1,400 years (610 CE). Yes, when they lost majority rule in the 7th-century Muslim conquest they were not in the majority for centuries, but still lived in their ancestral homeland.
Arab terrorism against Jews existed before 1948. In 1929, for example, 67 Jews were killed in the Hebron massacre, attacked and slaughtered by the Arabs they lived and worked beside. My wife’s great-grandfather Ben-Zion Gershon (who was a local doctor that often treated the Arab community without accepting payment) was tortured, had both his eyes gouged out and was then murdered. This was after his daughter Esther was raped in front of him, and his wife Zahava had both arms chopped off and was left to die. This was just one of many similar massacres inflicted on Jews that day.
I will continue this series over the coming days.

L’extrême gauche, ou la sécession des élites culturelles.
Christophe Guilluy géographe et essayiste français l’a dit mieux que personne : la gauche n’est plus la gauche dès lors qu’elle a rompu avec les classes populaires.
Et l’extrême gauche contemporaine n’est pas le soulèvement des « gens d’en bas ». C’est le sommet de la petite-moyenne bourgeoisie culturelle qui a colonisé le langage de la pauvreté pour en faire un marqueur de distinction.
Le profil type du noyau militant et intellectuel n’est pas l’ouvrier, l’employé de périphérie ou le précaire de banlieue. C’est majoritairement des femmes blanches, diplômées (Bac+3 à grandes écoles ou équivalent en sciences sociales, éducation, culture), urbaines, issues de Métropolia. Elles se veulent « proches du peuple » qu’elles prétendent défendre, mais elles en sont l’exact inverse sociologique et culturel.
Guilluy parle d’une « rupture presque anthropologique » entre ceux qui parlent du peuple et le peuple lui-même. La sociologie des militants et des porte-parole est très CSP+.
• Le mécanisme.
Depuis les années 1980, la gauche dominante a abandonné la question sociale. Elle a remplacé l’alliance des professeurs et des ouvriers par une alliance bobos des métropoles et des électorats issus de l’immigration dans les quartiers.
Résultat : les classes populaires de la France périphérique (petites villes, périurbain, zones rurales) se sont autonomisées culturellement. Elles ne se reconnaissent plus dans le récit produit par les élites intellectuelles, médiatiques et universitaires. Le peuple réel vote ailleurs. L’extrême gauche, elle, reste enfermée dans sa bulle progressiste.
• Colonisation de la pauvreté.
C’est exactement ça. On s’approprie les mots de l’oppression, de la domination et de la « décolonisation » pour y injecter des priorités qui sont celles de la bourgeoisie culturelle : questions identitaires, migratoires, de genre, écologiques radicales. Les classes populaires, elles, ont des diagnostics pragmatiques (emploi, pouvoir d’achat, sécurité, école, régulation migratoire). Guilluy le résume : les bobos sont des « Rougon-Macquart déguisés en hipster ». Ils préservent leur position, leur patrimoine immobilier, la scolarisation de leurs enfants, tout en se drapant dans la vertu. Ils pratiquent l’évitement résidentiel et scolaire tout en exigeant que les autres subissent les conséquences de leurs « croyances de luxe ».
• Le florilège des contraires.
- Ils défendent « le peuple » mais méprisent ceux qui ne partagent pas leurs codes (le « beauf », le « raciste » de périphérie).
- Ils parlent de solidarité et de diversité tout en vivant dans des cercles socialement et culturellement homogènes.
- Ils dénoncent les élites tout en formant la nouvelle élite culturelle qui a capturé l’éducation, la culture, une partie des médias et de la fonction publique.
- Ils prétendent lutter contre le capitalisme tout en étant les produits et les bénéficiaires du système éducatif et des métropoles qui concentrent les ressources.
Guilluy a cartographié le schisme : d’un côté Métropolia (les grandes villes où se concentre la bourgeoisie culturelle progressive et ses alliés électoraux), de l’autre Périphéria (la majorité ordinaire, les gens ordinaires, multiethnique mais culturellement autonome).
L’extrême gauche est le bras armé discursif de la première contre la seconde. Ce n’est pas une révolution.
C’est une sécession des élites qui se fait passer pour la voix des opprimés.
Le peuple n’a pas besoin qu’on le colonise symboliquement. Il a besoin qu’on arrête de le mépriser.

🚨 EXPOSED: Pro-Palestinian Social Media Amplification Operation 🚨
An app called Batekh, also described as "Digital Defender," provides an entire arsenal of tools for influencing online discourse.
According to its own app listings, it supplies curated pro-Palestinian content, ready-made responses users can copy and paste into online discussions, and tools for reporting content.
Participants can even upload screenshots to confirm they've taken part.
An elaborate digital influence operation hiding in plain sight.
And wait, who's that appearing in the app's content-sharing section?
Why, it's none other than New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, featured in a video calling for Benjamin Netanyahu's arrest.

Da quando Marattin ha partecipato alla trasmissione di Formigli e poi ha parlato in sinagoga, la quantità di materiale escretorio che ho dovuto leggere nei suoi riguardi è tale da ribaltare gli stomaci di infiniti uomini.
Ovviamente, a Marattin viene rimproverato il suo essere dichiaratamente e incondizionatamente sionista — sul tema è l’unico politico che non abbia mai commesso scivoloni di alcun tipo — ma, per altro verso, gli viene spesso rimproverata la sua stessa storia. E ho letto ragazzetti di questa nuova sinistra, cresciuti sotto l’ala protettrice di Elly La Qualunque — sorella di Cetto — che usavano Marattin per iniziare un processo alla sinistra renziana, con formule che dicevano “non mi interessa Marattin, ma dovremmo cercare di capire cosa c’entrava quella gente con la sinistra”, per poi paragonare Marattin a Vannacci.
Ora, non starò lì a discutere della storia di Marattin. Ma ormai da mesi, da Virginia Libero, passando per Raffaele Giuliani e simili, tutto uno stuolo di figli di papà sta facendo del revisionismo sulla stessa storia della sinistra, creando retroattivamente un’immagine della sinistra che non esisteva fino a qualche anno fa e che, per esempio, dovrebbe includere l’antisemitismo, ribrandizzato come antisionismo, tra i valori fondanti della sinistra.
Bisognerebbe dire che questa cosa mefitica che oggi viene indicata con quel nome non ha nulla a che vedere con la sinistra storica e i suoi valori, e stiamo parlando di un mappazzone populista fatto a immagine e somiglianza di Conte e dei 5 Stelle. E questo è evidente ormai a tanti.
Il punto è che questo revisionismo non è un errore di memoria, è un’operazione politica: riscrivere il passato per legittimare il presente. Perché se si riesce a far credere che l’antisionismo sia sempre stato in cuore della sinistra, allora chi oggi è di sinistra e non è antisionista diventa un corpo estraneo — e chi lo è, invece, diventa l’erede autentico. È così che si espelle Marattin senza espellerlo: non lo si caccia, lo si dichiara fuori dalla storia. Ma la storia dice altro: la sinistra italiana è nata con l’antifascismo e con la Resistenza, non con l’odio per Israele. Ed è singolare che a riscriverla siano proprio quelli che non l’hanno mai vissuta — figli di papà che parlano di popolo, e che del popolo, come si vede, non hanno nemmeno il sentore.

April 2024: Alex de Waal tells a Harvard audience that Gaza is "the most intense famine that we have seen since records began."
October 2026: After none of his dire predictions came true, Alex de Waal declares that Gaza was, actually, "a very different type of famine."
Alex de Waal wrote the standard textbook on famine, runs the World Peace Foundation, and helped write starvation crimes into international law. When the media says "famine experts warn," this is who they mean.
In March 2024 he told Democracy Now that Gaza's children were already dying of hunger and disease, "likely in thousands already."
Asked in October 2026 if Gaza made him rethink his work, he said yes. Was he wrong? Of course not. The most intense famine since records began was simply "a very different type of famine," with "a very different demographic profile." Not one word about the thousands of children he said were already dying.
When Noam Dworman pressed him on the deaths in September, de Waal's answer was that the pattern "was something that was puzzling" and "we actually don't know how many have died."
He was certain enough in 2024 to tell the world they were already dying by the thousands. Now he isn't certain enough to say how many died at all.

September 24, 2026: Noam Dworman sits down with "the world's leading famine expert" and reads him his old predictions and declarations about famine in Gaza.
Alex de Waal wrote the standard textbook on famine, runs the World Peace Foundation, and helped write starvation crimes into international law. When the media says "famine experts warn," this is who they mean.
In January 2024, he told Owen Jones famine would probably arrive by early February. February came and went. In March 2024, he told CBS it was expected between then and May. Days later, he told Democracy Now that children were dying "likely in thousands already." In April 2024, at Harvard, he called it the most intense famine since records began. In October 2025, Democracy Now brought him back.
Nobody ever asked him about any of prior predictions and declarations. On September 24, 2026, Noam Dworman did.

An UNRWA teacher goes public on the indoctrination of children by UNRWA in Gaza. She said she believes the indoctrination has grown worse since October 7th and that if not addressed, another October 7th is inevitable. “If the upcoming generations in Gaza have the capabilities to make another attack, they will make it,” she warned.
She says sixth graders are taught to blame Jews for Palestinian suffering, young girls are encouraged to continue Hamas’s war against Jews, and when she objected, a school administrator threatened to cut out her tongue with scissors.
She called for an overhaul of Gaza’s schools, including changes to the curriculum and independent oversight of teachers. “It’s more important than disarming Hamas or changing who will govern Gaza,” she said. “Because this can change the future.”
I think UNRWA is running its own version of "pay-for-slay"
The sharia law compliant "aid," which is exclusive for Muslims, is mostly distributed in cash. It prioritizes a unique definition "orphans," which Palestinians re-defined as, "a child without a FATHER"
You do the math.

Dr. Alice Jill Edwards: “The UN had done so little to help them... I felt ashamed. I am still outraged that UN special rapporteurs Francesca Albanese and Reem Alsalem never formally documented these horrors. Instead, both have continued to issue a stream of what I regard as one-sided and vitriolic reports, and hard-to-justify excuses for their lack of attention. That, families and returned hostages have told me, only added to their anguish.”
