July 31, 2026

The Board of Peace reached an agreement for the complete disarmament of Hamas and all other armed groups in Gaza, US President Donald Trump announced on Thursday night in a post to Truth Social. “Today, the Board of Peace reached a HISTORIC agreement for the COMPLETE DISARMAMENT of Hamas and all other armed groups in Gaza. This is a monumental step toward lasting PEACE and SECURITY,” Trump wrote. He added that the agreement marks a “critical step towards Gaza finally being governed by a new Palestinian government that will work closely with the Board of Peace to help the Palestinian people.” “At the same time, Israel will have the security it deserves, with Gaza no longer used as a base for terror attacks.” According to Trump, the agreement will be carried out in “carefully structured phases.” READ MORE

ISRAEL HAYOM (by agreement with JNS)
The real reason for Netanyahu’s trip to Washington
Amit Segal
July 31, 2026

The contradictory accounts of the Trump–Netanyahu meeting (a public cold shoulder, or “the best meeting ever”) and the focus on technical but important details (there was no one-on-one meeting; no journalists were invited) ignore a more basic question: what was its purpose? Why, in fact, did Netanyahu travel to Washington? In January the goal was advancing what would later become known as Operation “Roaring Lion.” A year earlier—blocking bad hostage deals and the strike on Fordow by American bombers. But what now? Is the goal to renew the war? It is not clear that Israel is interested in such a renewal at any price. Minister Smotrich went all the way to Tucker Carlson and Nick Fuentes with the claim that the current situation is, in fact, the best one for Israel.Ravid Makovsky, a commentator and scholar who knows both sides of the Atlantic well, offered a plausible explanation, one that also accounts for why there were no cameras at the summit but there was a row of senior American officials.

MEDIA LINE Pickaxe Mountain Exposes Divide Between President Trump and Netanyahu on Iran, Expert Says Hours before Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu entered the Oval Office on Tuesday, President Donald Trump publicly questioned why the Israeli leader had announced that he was bringing new intelligence about an Iranian site known as Pickaxe Mountain. “I don’t need Bibi to tell me that. Bibi is telling me that because he wants me to stay involved,” President Trump told Fox News. He then sharpened the rebuke: “Why don’t you just tell it to me? Why do you have to announce it to the world?”

ISRAEL HAYOM Nearly half of Americans support arresting Netanyahu Nearly half of Americans believe the United States should arrest Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu under the warrant issued against him by the International Criminal Court, according to an Economist/YouGov poll published Tuesday night as he visited the White House. Forty-nine percent of respondents said Netanyahu should be arrested upon arriving in the United States, compared with 27% who said he should not. The partisan divide was clear: 68% of Democrats supported his arrest, compared with just 24% of Republicans. The poll also found that 47% of Americans believed Netanyahu’s actions had damaged relations between the United States and Israel. That view was shared by 61% of Democrats and 30% of Republicans.

Jewish Politicians Campaign to be Eaten Last
Kenneth Levin
July 27, 2026

…Much of the Jew-hatred is, of course, cast in the guise of anti-Israel sentiment, and many American Jews choose to believe that the anti-Jewish animus so prevalent in today’s America, predominantly (though not exclusively) coming from the political Left and Islamist sources, is secondary to anti-Israel animus. But those who do so are willfully ignoring obvious counter-evidence. This includes, particularly, the far Left and progressivists’ wide adoption of CRT and DEI characterization of Jews as owing their success in America to their being exceptionally unfair beneficiaries of white privilege. It is a characterization derived from Soviet propaganda, where social dynamics are deemed zero-sum affairs and any success of one group is at the unfair expense of everyone else. READ MORE

FREE PRESS The Inside Story of How Democrats Lost the Working Class On Tuesday, I voted for Donald Trump. It felt like the biggest middle finger I’ve ever raised to the party I’d supported for most of my adult life. When he won, I was utterly euphoric.” These are the words of Evan Barker, writing for The Free Press on November 9, 2024. A lifelong Democratic operative from a working-class family in Kansas City, Missouri, she’d spent her career getting progressives elected. Then, as she put it, the Democratic Party “turned its back on me and my family.” At the time, Evan’s story captured a trend playing out across the country: The working class, once a cornerstone of the Democratic coalition, was drifting away from the party. Now, with the progressive wing ascendant and the midterms approaching, that shift has only become more consequential. But how exactly did it happen? And what do Democrats need to do to win back the voters they lost?

Jews Are Leaving Canada in Droves
Casey Babb
July 28, 2026

Gad Saad has lived in Canada since his family fled Lebanon in 1975 after someone showed up at their home to kill them. But last month, the professor of marketing and evolutionary behavioral sciences announced on social media that he had given up on Canada and decided to leave. “The taxation system is astounding, rendering it nearly impossible to accumulate enough money to truly retire,” Saad wrote about the first reason for his decision. It’s true. The typical Canadian pays 70 percent more in income taxes than the typical American. The second reason is far more alarming. “The government’s open immigration policies have made it unsafe for my family to remain here (due to the exponential increase in Jew-hatred),” he wrote…Saad’s decision made it even more painfully obvious that Canada has an antisemitism problem READ MORE

TABLET MAG Imagine There’s No Jews: On the right or left, it’s easy if you try We often say antisemitism is a shape-shifter, as though it merely changes vocabulary over time. That is too comforting. The remarkable thing about antisemitism is not that it evolves. It is that it travels. It migrates effortlessly between ideologies that otherwise define themselves by mutual hatred. It can speak the language of blood and soil or the language of decolonization. It can invoke Christ or human rights. Perhaps that is because antisemitism is less an ideology than a political reflex. Most prejudices belong to a particular worldview. Antisemitism belongs to all of them. It survives revolutions because it answers a need that revolutions never eliminate: the need to explain why history has failed to produce the promised redemption.

FUTURE OF JEWISH
The Israeli Occupation That Must End
Nachum Kaplan
Jul 25, 2026

Israel’s alleged occupation of Judea and Samaria and Gaza grabs the headlines but is nothing compared to its biggest occupation, which is that of the Western mind. The Jewish state has no interest in this occupation, but the Western mind will not let it go, no matter how many stage hypnosis tricks Israel pulls to break itself free. Israel has psychologically occupied the Western imagination. A country smaller than many American states, containing a fraction of the population of the Middle East and fighting conflicts that are nowhere near the world’s largest or bloodiest, commands an astonishing share of Western moral attention. It is discussed with an intensity normally reserved for superpowers, civilisational threats, and celebrities behaving badly in restaurants. Governments issue statements. Universities convene panels and protests. Artists sign letters. Trade unions pass motions. Actors who cannot locate their own dignity suddenly locate “Palestine.” READ MORE

FUTURE OF JEWISH Melissa Brodsky: Jews were the original Palestinians In 1938, someone living in Tel Aviv (the first modern, all-Jewish city) reading the morning news was likely looking at The Palestine Post. A classical music fan attending a concert would probably watch the Palestine Symphony Orchestra. A builder needing a loan for a Jewish settlement went to the Anglo-Palestine Bank. They were Jewish, and they were Palestinian. Today, that sounds very much like a contradiction. People have been brainwashed to view the word “Palestinian” as an exclusive ethnic and national identity belonging solely to the Arab residents of the region. But history leaves a very long paper trail, and those documents show a different reality. The current use of the word is a recent invention. It’s not born from ancient roots, but from a calculated political strategy in the 1960s. To understand how a word that once described Jews became the battle cry against them, it helps to look at the timeline.

America’s upper-middle class antisemitism
Benjamin Kerstein
July 27, 2026

…Sadly, America today provides a somewhat different but nonetheless suitable case study in class-based antisemitism because we find ourselves in a rather remarkable situation: Contrary to the expectations of generations of American Jewish activists and leaders, current antisemitism is not an ideology of the poor and lower-middle classes. It has emerged, instead, as the ruling passion of many members of the most privileged, educated and elite sector in the United States. One of the reasons for this is the strange phenomenon of the lumpen elite. That is, America’s upper-middle class is now beset by terrors and discontents because it is already beginning to dissolve as a dominating class, and it knows it. To this, a solution must be found—a “safety valve” for that class’s fear and resentment. The preferred solution appears to be hating the Jews. READ MORE

ALGEMEINER Cornell University Student Outed Over Antisemitism Reveals Interest in Holocaust Denial, Eugenics in Shocking Secret Footage The Cornell University student who became notorious for declaring that he would not work for “a Jew” revealed the broader extent of his antisemitism in an undercover conversation published last week, discussing Holocaust denial, racial hierarchy, and conspiracies about Jewish power with a woman he believed shared his views. “It might not have been the smartest thing to say,” Austin Franco told an undercover investigator working for Accuracy in Media, referring to the message he sent the Jewish founders of a rental-technology startup. “But the reaction was overwhelming, not equal to what I said. I thought I was being nice. This is why I don’t want to work for them.”

Mamdani bets he can govern without any relationship with traditional Jewish leaders
Will Bredderman
July 30, 2026

The morning after a double hate crime targeted an Asian American and a Jewish man wearing a yarmulke in Manhattan, during which the attacker allegedly yelled “Allahu Akbar” and “Justice for Islam” while passing a synagogue and stabbing the second victim, New York City Comptroller Mark Levine offered what may prove a eulogy for a political era in America’s greatest metropolis.“There is no New York without us,” the Jewish Democrat said at a press conference outside The Jewish Center, the Modern Orthodox synagogue where the Jewish victim worshipped, invoking the deep history and contributions of Jews to the Big Apple. But Mayor Zohran Mamdani, the lone citywide official not to attend the gathering, seems to wager that he can govern New York City without much support from the dense web of religious and civic organizations that historically shaped Jewish life there and helped guide the choices of his predecessors. Mamdani received only about one-third of the Jewish vote in the mayoral election, but little support from legacy Jewish groups. READ MORE

Why We’re Dismantling the ICC
Secretary of State Marco Rubio
July 14, 2026

Most of us would struggle to imagine a world in which U.S. soldiers, police officers, Border Patrol agents and elected leaders could be dragged before an international court, tried by judges from random countries across the globe, found guilty under international laws we neither consent to nor control, and then imprisoned thousands of miles from America. But that is what the International Criminal Court now claims the power to do. The ICC was born at the turn of the century. At first, it was marketed as a narrow backstop to prosecute the gravest crimes. Now the ICC and its allies seek a standing world tribunal with near-unlimited reach, empowered to override the courts and constitutions of the U.S. and other sovereign states—and to prosecute and arrest our citizens.

Jesse Jackson’s daughter reveals she has converted to Judaism

Writing in an opinion piece for The Washington Post, Ashley L. Jackson said she completed her conversion on 12 June after what she described as a years-long spiritual journey shaped by study, illness and a growing connection to Jewish life. Jackson, a writer, producer and founder of the nonprofit Push The Next Generation, said her father attended a Shabbat service at her synagogue two years before he died, where he joined in the celebration despite coming from a Baptist Christian background. She wrote: “As the Saturday morning service proceeded, my father sat in the front row – holding my hand, dancing to prayers in a language he did not speak, eating the Sunkist candies the congregation had tossed to celebrate a bar mitzvah.” READ MORE

Barack Obama Fathered Today’s Marxist Democrat Party
Joshua Monnington
July 30, 2026

With the rise of the Mamdani-style communists has come a widespread narrative that the sudden rise of more openly radical politicians means the Democrats of the last few years or decades are somehow moderate. Depending on who’s telling the story, it’s a harrowing tale about Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries trying to stave off the DSA Marxists; or the “far left” floundering because it doesn’t have its own Fox News; or the party needing a storybook journey home to the moderation of Joe Biden and Barack Obama. These are all tall tales, of course. Schumer and Jeffries are engaged in a power struggle, but it’s an intramural contest among fellow radicals. Leftists “far” and near have numerous Fox News-scale allies such as CNN, ABC, The New York Times, The Washington Post, and so on and so forth. Biden is anything but moderate, and Obama has arguably done more than anyone to create the radicalism that is now pervasive on the left. READ MORE
