Israeliska myndigheter har äntligen bestämt sig för att ge sig in i propagandakriget och aktivt adressera alla sinnesjuka påståenden palestinavurmarna kommer med. Hellre sent än aldrig.

A major kosher store in the Golders Green neighborhood of London is on fire. Arson is suspected on antisemitic grounds. Large fire and rescue crews are on scene.

Eyal Waldman hired 20 engineers in Gaza, donated $360K to a Gaza hospital, and spent years building partnerships toward between Israeli and Palestinians. Pro-Palestinian protesters screamed “murderer” at him in Venice this week. His daughter was killed at Nova on October 7.

I lost count. This might be my 20th visit to Israel since October 7. Not to Lebanon, where I grew up, where an economy survives on the support of visitors. Not to crumbling Damascus, the oldest continuously inhabited city in the world, which offered me nothing but harassment and a birthplace on my passport. But to Israel, during the worst war since its establishment. Because I am a traitor. I betrayed my friends and family, my educators, and the mainstream in Lebanon, Syria, across the Arab and Muslim worlds, in Europe, and in America. Unlike the masses who have never set foot in Israel, I know that Israelis are not monsters. They do not seek war, nor do they wage it to conquer land. The accusations of genocide, the blood libels, the conspiracy theories—they are not rooted in reality. They are born of ignorance, and too often, of something darker. At best, hostile opinions stem from a profound misunderstanding: of this war, of the history of this conflict, of political Islam and its ambitions, of Judaism, and certainly of Zionism. But how could the average person not be confused? A relentless campaign of misinformation defames Israel while elevating the Palestinian narrative into a simplistic story of pure victimhood. It is emotionally compelling. It is easy. It requires no deeper inquiry. And so the question is never asked: What happens the day after? Would a Palestinian state focus on building a thriving society, contributing to the region and to the world? Or would it continue a war against Israel? History does not leave much room for doubt. Every attempt at compromise has been met by rejection or violence. And yet, the pressure is always placed on Israel—to concede, to risk, to appease. Why? To satisfy crowds who chant slogans they barely understand? To align with a cause that thrives not on building, but on perpetuating conflict? Real genocides unfold across the world and are met with indifference. Millions of Kurds still seek a state. Others fight for self-determination without commanding global obsession. The difference is not the cause. The difference is the JEW. The particular fixation on Israel cannot be separated from a much older story—one of projection, distortion, and hatred uniquely reserved for Jews. I consider myself privileged. Privileged to have seen through the lies I was taught—the lies you are told. Privileged to have encountered the reality of a people who built, defended, and sustained a state against relentless hostility. As a seeker of truth, I was met with warmth, love, and respect. I have come to admire Israel and the Jewish people to such a degree that the noise—the accusations, the mob, the cowardice—has become irrelevant. Yes, I am a traitor. A traitor to narratives built on falsehood. A traitor to expectations that demand loyalty to lies. A traitor to a cause that demands endless sacrifice and conformity. A traitor to a cause to which I owe nothing. On the contrary, it owes me. I believe not what I was told, but what I see. I choose truth over belonging because I am free. If that makes me a traitor, so be it. I stand, firmly and proudly, with Israel. Am Yisrael Chai. #Israel #palestine #October7

"The way some of these other immigrants are getting treated in our country right now is a travesty and a disgrace... I think what’s going on in our country, what we’re doing to some of these amazing immigrants, is really unfortunate and it’s really sad." - Charles Barkley on CBS

👏 San Jose police have arrested Ramon Akoyans (18), Roma Akoyans (20), and Bruneil Chamaki (32) after they attacked two Jewish men waiting for a table at Santana Row’s upscale eatery, Augustine. The assault happened March 8th and is being investigated as a possible hate crime as antisemitic language was also used, according to SJPD’s assault unit.  One of the two victims was knocked out cold and required stitches. The other victim was badly cut and bruised. Both were hospitalized. May they be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law - enough is enough!
