Andrew Bernard
September 11, 2023

Cynthia McKinney, a former US congresswoman and 2008 presidential nominee for the Green Party, on Monday promoted a livestream event featuring notorious white supremacist David Duke and the black nationalist author of a book called Jews Are The Problem. “I know where I’ll be and what I’ll be watching at 6:00 pm EASTERN time today!” McKinney posted on X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter. Her post included a promotional image of an event with the question “Can Black people and White people work together to defeat our common enemy?” written above a large Star of David and a photo of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks against the US.

Tennis fan kicked out of US Open for singing Nazi-era anthem
September 5, 2023

A tennis fan was ejected from the US Open in New York on Monday after German tennis player Alexander Zverev protested that the man had been chanting words from the Nazi-era anthem. Zverev said that the spectator had chanted “Germany above everything” during his encounter with Italy’s Jannik Sinner. “He started singing the Hitler anthem. That was too much,” Zverev said. “As a German, I’m not proud of that part of history and it’s not OK to do that. He was sitting in the front row, so a lot of people heard it. If I didn’t react, it would have been bad from my part,” he said. READ MORE

Let’s Talk About Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson’s Ultra-Thin Black Skin
John Kass
September 13, 2023

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson is consumed by the color of his skin. It seems that his black skin is all he wants to talk about. Someone close to him might want to tell the poor fellow to simmer down, grow up and act like a man—and inform him he is not the first black mayor of Chicago. But why talk of the color of his skin? Instead, let’s talk about the thinness of it. I’ve been covering Chicago politics for decades—since the 1980s—and never has there been a politician with skin as thin as his. It’s not merely rice paper thin, it is so thin that it makes rice paper resemble cardboard. Brandon Johnson’s skin is so thin it must have been made by the faeries, ephemeral and disappearing, as light as a cherub baby’s breath. READ MORE

International community appalled by Abbas’ comments about Holocaust
September 7, 2023

European and American officials on Thursday issued statements condemning the speech delivered by the Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas where he said Adolf Hitler ordered the mass murder of Jews because of their “social role,” rather than antisemitism. The speech delivered at Fatah’s 11th Revolutionary Council in late August caused outrage and international condemnation. The EU spokesperson’s statement said that it “contained false and grossly misleading remarks” about Jews and antisemitism…It added that Abbas’ remarks “trivialize Holocaust,” fuel antisemitism and “are an insult to the millions of victims of the Holocaust and their families.” READ MORE

US could help settle Lebanon, Israel border dispute, White House adviser says
August 31, 2023

The United States is exploring the possibility of resolving the long-standing border dispute between Lebanon and Israel, senior White House adviser Amos Hochstein said on Thursday at the end of a two-day visit to Lebanon. Hochstein said it was “natural” to look into the issue following the delineation in 2022 of the maritime border between the two countries, which paved the way for offshore exploration activities to begin on behalf of Lebanon last week.

JPOST Hochstein’s mission: Solve Israel-Lebanon border crisis, reduce tensions Hochstein, who last year brokered a maritime border deal between Lebanon and Israel that paved the way for gas exploration in the area, said that he also plans to hear the Israeli view “and to make an assessment if this is the right time and if we have a window of opportunity to be able to achieve it.”

Jared Kushner, Lindsey Graham push Trump to back Biden-brokered Saudi-Israel deal
September 6, 2023

Republican Senator Lindsey Graham and former senior White House adviser Jared Kushner have encouraged former president Donald Trump to support his successor Joe Biden’s effort to broker a normalization agreement between Israel and Saudi Arabia. The type of defense pact that Riyadh is asking to sign with the US in exchange for normalizing ties with Israel will likely require Congressional approval and will need the support of at least some Republicans in a deeply divided Congress. Accordingly, vocal opposition from Trump could harm Biden’s chances of getting the bipartisan support he needs…READ MORE

Why is Israel silent on the looming Iran deal?
Yaakov Katz
August 31, 2023

…All indications are that the United States under President Joe Biden is close to reaching an interim deal – or at the very least some sort of unwritten understanding – with Iran that would see Tehran scale back its uranium enrichment in exchange for billions of dollars. US prisoners held in Iran have been released, Iran has reportedly slowed down enrichment and even diluted some of its stockpiles, and still Netanyahu is quiet. Yes, his office put out a statement a couple of weeks ago after the prisoner release was announced, but it was a written statement and was nothing compared to the way the prime minister used to speak about Iran in the past… Netanyahu needs Biden to close a normalization deal with [Saudi Arabia] and if he starts fighting with the president over Iran, that could turn the president off from wanting to help advance Israel’s ties in the Middle East.

A rare cache of weapons from the Roman period found stashed away in a cave in the Ein Gedi Nature Reserve

Four Roman swords, nearly 2,000 years old, found in Judean Desert
September 6, 2023

A sensational find in the Judean Desert: a cache of four 1,900-year-old, excellently preserved Roman swords and a shafted weapon were discovered in a crevice in a cave in the Ein Gedi Nature Reserve. It appears that the weapons were hidden by the Judean rebels, after they were seized from the Roman army as booty. “Finding a single sword is rare—so four? It’s a dream! We rubbed our eyes to believe it,” say the researchers. The rare weapons were exhibited for the first time at a press conference that took place Wednesday morning with Eli Escusido, the Director of the Israel Antiquities Authority, and the researchers.

The distinction between hating Jews and hating Israel is bogus

Israelophobia is the newest form of the oldest hatred
Melanie Phillips
August 31, 2023

Antisemitism is a rotten term for the “longest hatred” that targets the Jewish people. For a start, there is no such thing as “semitism” to be “anti.” The word “antisemitism” was invented by a 19th-century Jew-hater, Wilhelm Marr, who wanted to invest this prejudice with the spurious characteristic of race in order to appeal to a society that increasingly defined itself in scientific terms. Today, with Jew-hatred having reached unprecedented global levels, the inadequacies of “antisemitism” are becoming ever more manifest. Many wrongly believe that it’s just another form of racism. Few understand that it’s a uniquely paranoid, deranged and murderous mindset. READ MORE

On September 28, Israel’s Supreme Court is expected to rule in favor of a petition from the far-left Movement for Quality Government to overturn the November 1, 2022 elections

Will Israeli Democracy Survive the Court?

September 1, 2023

…In January, MQG [Movement for Quality Government] petitioned the Supreme Court asking the justices to ban newly sworn in Netanyahu from serving in office. MQG argued that with all due respect to the 2.4 million Israelis who voted for Netanyahu, as a criminal defendant, Netanyahu is legally “incapacitated” from performing his duties in office and therefore, the Supreme Court should order the Attorney General Gali Baharav Miara to declare Netanyahu “incapacitated “and oust him from power. MQG’s petition was ridiculous on its face. The Supreme Court ruled in an 11-0 judgment in March 2020 that Netanyahu may serve as Prime Minister while standing trial. Basic Law: The Government, stipulates that a Prime Minister can only be compelled to leave office if he has been convicted of criminal charges, and even then, only after he has exhausted all appeals.
