“Mohamed didn’t attack elderly Jews with a gun, but with fire, because he wanted them to suffer more. Like ISIS, he wanted the world to witness a horrifying spectacle in Allah’s name.”

He Set a Holocaust Survivor On Fire for Allah

…This was not just terrorism and it was not just antisemitism. It was Islamic terrorism. Mohamed Soliman was a devout Muslim who following the teachings of his religion tried to murder a group of elderly people in the most horrifying way possible. He was a supporter of the Muslim Brotherhood, a group whose branches encompass ISIS, Al Qaeda, CAIR and most political Islamist groups in America, and which is long overdue to be banned in the United States. Mohamed is only one man. If we have learned anything in the past decades, it’s that there is a never-ending supply of Mohameds who will go on running over Americans with cars, planting bombs, opening fire with guns, attacking with machetes and waging war on us in Allah’s name.

JEWISH INSIDER Schumer to push for $500 million for 2026 NSGP funding, says Republicans are amenable Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) will announce on Monday that he is launching “an all-out push to shore up” $500 million in the fiscal year 2026 budget for the Nonprofit Security Grant Program in response to a spate of recent antisemitic terrorist attacks, he revealed to Jewish Insider in an interview on Thursday. He said that key Senate Republicans have appeared amenable to that request and called the administration’s proposal for flat funding for the program a nonstarter.

Zohran Mamdani ripped for refusing to recognize Israel as Jewish state: ‘Dangerous point of view’
Carl Campanile
June 5, 2025

Jewish leaders condemned Democratic socialist mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani Thursday for his repeated refusals to recognize Israel’s right to exist as a Jewish state — slamming it as a disqualifying and “dangerous” point of view. “It’s more than problematic,” said Joseph Potasnik, executive vice president of the New York Board of Rabbis. “Jews see this as a dividing line. “There are 22 Arab Muslim states,” Potasnik noted. “In Mamdani’s world, there isn’t room for one Jewish state. He doesn’t want a Jewish State.” READ MORE

COMMENTARY Seth Mandel: Mamdani’s Astonishing Hezbollah Propaganda These days, Mamdani spends his time promising to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and getting fundraising help from the Democratic Socialists of America, which just endorsed the murder of two Israeli embassy staffers in Washington, D.C., outside the Capital Jewish Museum. A key campaign ally of his is Linda Sarsour, among the most infamous and virulent anti-Semites in the modern history of New York City politics.

From France, A Fresh Warning About Islamism
Ilan Berman
June 3, 2025

Not all that long ago, warnings about a creeping Islamist infiltration in Europe were widely ridiculed as conspiracy theories or, worse, “Islamophobia.” In previous years, when politicians like Geert Wilders of the Netherlands and Britain’s Michael Gove, or authors like France’s Michel Houellebecq raised alarms about the growing prevalence of political Islam on the Continent, they were routinely dismissed as cranks, alarmists, or simply as racists. These days, though, such concerns are getting harder to refute. Just ask the French. Last month, a new government report caused a national firestorm when it concluded that the Muslim Brotherhood, the world’s most influential Islamist movement, is trying to penetrate the country and subvert its institutions.  READ MORE

THE FREE PRESS How the Muslim Brotherhood Is Capturing Europe A new report found that, in France, Brotherhood-linked schools have distributed texts that praise Sharia law as superior to man-made law, denounce interfaith marriage, and vilify Jews. France didn’t plan to blow the whistle on the Muslim Brotherhood’s attempt to take over Europe. But that’s exactly what it did a couple of weeks ago, when a classified report from the Ministry of the Interior leaked to the newspaper Le Figaro. The 73-page document, marked confidentiel-défense, was meant for top officials only.

Lappin: “U.S. Mideast envoy Steve Witkoff’s ties to Gulf state businesses raise increasing concerns about his role in proposed ceasefire deal between Hamas and Israel”

US diplomacy in the shadow of Qatar
Andrew D. Lappin
May 30, 2025

Has Steve Witkoff, President Donald Trump’s appointed special U.S. Middle East envoy, been incontrovertibly corrupted by Qatar? The question is prompted by the stench of the proposed ceasefire with Hamas that was announced on May 29. Even though Hamas has been reduced to a toothless shell, the deal would have Israel agreeing to a ceasefire for 60 days and then withdrawing from strategic territory that it paid for, inch by inch, with the precious blood of Israeli soldiers and the broken hearts of the Israeli people. Paid for during a defensive war that definitively spoke to the most heinous violations of Western civilization since the Holocaust. READ MORE

FOUNDATION FOR DEFENSE OF DEMOCRACIES Qatar keeps purchasing political influence In 2017, Qatar dispatched lobbyists to build opposition against the Palestinian International Terrorism Support and Prevention Act, which identified Qatar as a sponsor of Hamas. Materials distributed by Qatari agents warned that the bill “erroneously and unfairly” targeted Qatar and had the potential to “chill the robust economic relationship between the U.S. and Qatar.” Whether because of Qatar’s efforts or not, the legislation never passed. Qatar’s efforts have continued amid the war in Gaza. Disclosures submitted to the U.S. Justice Department indicate that lobbyists on Qatar’s payroll engaged with offices in the House and Senate over 285 times between October 2023 and April 2024 on the issue of Qatar’s role in hostage negotiations.

A Northwestern University professor—hired as part of a deal with anti-Israel groups to end last year’s encampment—sits on the boards of two organizations that were founded by and frequently partner with Palestinian terrorists, a Washington Free Beacon review found. Last year, Northwestern president Michael Schill struck a deal with radical student groups, including Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP), to end their encampment, agreeing to recruit two Palestinian professors and provide full rides to five students from Gaza.

The Anti-Israel Right Joins the Pro-Iran Left
Lee Smith
May 29, 2025

Donald Trump says he is going to fight to end antisemitism and the left-wing delegitimization and hatred of Israel that has plagued college campuses since Oct. 7, which led to the murder last week of two Israeli embassy employees. Standing in the way of his efforts to rid America of a violent and deadly scourge are the radical left, Democrats, federal courts, and university presidents who are determined to protect pro-Palestinian terrorists from his deportation campaign. Everyone wants Trump to lose. This includes certain self-proclaimed MAGA influencers, who are obsessed with the idea of Israel as a uniquely evil force in world history and American Jews as a malignant fifth column. READ MORE

Four Palestinians die in storming of Gaza UN food warehouse; IDF was not in area
May 29, 2025

Hundreds of Palestinians stormed a United Nations food warehouse in central Gaza on Wednesday, shouting and shoving each other and ripping off pieces of the building to get inside, the UN said. Palestinian hospital officials said four people died in the chaos, two of them shot. Israel accused the Hamas terror group of opening fire. There were no Israeli troops in or near the area of the UN’s World Food Program warehouse at the time, and the IDF is not operating in Deir al-Balah. “Hordes of hungry people broke into WFP’s Al-Ghafari warehouse in Deir Al-Balah, Central Gaza, in search of food supplies that were pre-positioned for distribution,” the UN’s World Food Program said in a statement on X…Hamas, in a statement, denied that it had opened fire or that it operated the warehouse.

Rachel Goldberg-Polin’s Commencement Speech Must Be Heard

Last week, on May 22, in New York’s Louis Armstrong Stadium, the city’s Yeshiva University held its graduation ceremony. Its head, Rabbi Dr. Ari Berman, presented an honorary doctorate to a woman who has become a hero to so many of us since October 7. I’m speaking, of course about Rachel Goldberg-Polin, mother of the late and great Hersh Goldberg-Polin, who was killed brutally by Hamas along with five others while in captivity. (An award named after Hersh — the Ohr Shel Hersh Award— was also inaugurated at the ceremony.. Her speech for the new graduates contained in it beautiful guidelines for how to live in order to make the world a better place. She started out with gratitude, noting that the root for the Hebrew word for “gratitude/thank you” is also found in the Hebrew word for “Jewish.” She talked about Sarah Milgrim and Yaron Lischinsky, sending to their parents comfort from the heavens and saying that her heart and soul are with them, and that they did everything right.

After the DC murders, the time has come to strike down this monstrous antisemitic movement once and for all.

NO DELUSIONS, NO DESPAIR
Smash the Free Palestine Nazis
Benjamin Kerstein
Mary 23, 2025

…In some ways, the horrific murder of Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Milgrim z”l at a Jewish event in Washington, DC by a Free Palestine Nazi is an exception to the rule. It is explicable in its logic, and its cause can be easily traced. Its cause is Free Palestine Nazism itself: The first full-scale antisemitic movement in the United States since the 1930s, led by the Red-Green Alliance between radical progressives and Islamic supremacists. Its logic is the same as antisemitic murder has always been: the satanic belief in the necessity, the obligation, to kill Jews. This is the logic of everyone from Haman to Hitler, and it remains unchanged since Amalek slaughtered the women and children of the refugees from Pharaoh’s oppression. We know this is true because, like the movement that birthed him, the swine who committed the atrocity said so. But we know more than that: This is not a matter of one’s man guilt. The complicity is vast and collective. READ MORE

JEWISH INSIDER After Capital Jewish Museum killings, 33 senators call for $500 million in nonprofit security funding The letter was sent the day following the murder of two Israeli Embassy employees, which prompted calls for more resources to protect Jewish institutions

JOHNSON COUNTY POST Funeral held for Sarah Milgrim, Johnson County native killed in D.C. shooting — ‘She opened new doors’ Family and friends gathered Tuesday to mourn the death of Prairie Village native Sarah Milgrim, less than a week after she was shot and killed outside an event at the Capitol Jewish Museum in Washington, D.C. Local rabbis, Jewish leaders and a member of the Israeli embassy gave remarks at Congregation Beth Torah, in Overland Park. The funeral was private but streamed live online….Milgrim grew up in Prairie Village and was involved in Kansas City’s Jewish community. She was remembered for her commitment to Judaism and peacebuilding. Her father told KCUR that part of her job at the embassy involved hosting the families of Oct. 7 hostages when they visited the U.S.

In downtown Northbrook, a longstanding free speech zone is the focus of a new uproar with some neighbors saying it has now crossed the line into hate speech. “It was terrible. It was just gut wrenching. It was shocking,” Jeff Kaminsky said. A sign at the corner of Shermer Road and Walters Avenue reads ‘Northbrook stands with migrants’ and shows a blue inverted triangle, which is a Nazi symbol. “I live a block away. I can see it if I walk outside my door and come half a block up. I’m very upset by this,” Lisa Beth Gansberg with Friends of United Hatzalah said. READ MORE
