Apu (🇦🇷🇨🇦 for 🇮🇱🇮🇷🇺🇦) @Apuntes_ Netanyahu was quoting Will Durant, and calls it an UNFORTUNATE conclusion about how evil has overcome good throughout history because good has not been "strong enough". In fact, it contexualises the statement that democracy must re-assert its will to defend itself

Anti-Zionist activists accuse Israel supporters of eating babies and raping children, shout ‘death to America,’ wave terrorist flags NEW YORK — Anti-Zionist protesters chanted for terrorist groups, accused Israel’s supporters of eating babies and raping children, and chanted for death to Israel and the US at a protest for Al Quds Day in New York City on Friday.

Iranian state-aligned media and senior regime figures have again invoked supernatural and conspiratorial language in describing the conflict with Israel, with recent and past material referring to a “war of occult sciences”, “Zionist sorcery,” jinn, and Jewish talismans. The theme has also surfaced in Iranian claims that Israel used “occult and supernatural spirits” during the 12-day war. The clearest recent example appeared in a Mehr News Agency report published this week, which said the confrontation with Israel extends beyond military, cyber, diplomatic, and cognitive fronts to what it called a “war of occult sciences.” The rhetoric echoes earlier material preserved...

The Connection Between Zionism, Religious Liberty, and Anti-Catholic BigotryIs it now forbidden to question Zionism without being branded “antisemitic”? Drawing on the words of World Zionist leader Nahum Goldmann himself, this investigation exposes a growing effort to redefine dissent as hate—while tracing the deeper roots of the conflict to Vatican II, religious liberty, and a decades-long struggle over the soul of Catholic teaching. What emerges is a striking paradox: in the name of tolerance, Catholics are increasingly told which beliefs they are no longer allowed to hold.Over the past few years, Zionist political figures and pundits have increasingly instructed Americans...

The Trump administration's top counterterrorism official Joe Kent announced his resignation Tuesday over opposition to the Iran war, becoming the highest-profile administration official to step down publicly over the conflict. In a resignation letter posted publicly on social media, Kent said he could not "in good conscience" support the war, which is now in its third week. "Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby," Kent, who served as the director of the National Counterterrorism Center, wrote in his resignation letter....

Global attention has been focused entirely on events in Iran and Lebanon these last two weeks. Media coverage has been at saturation levels and understandably so given the military, political and economic consequences that will directly or indirectly impact the lives of millions who are uninvolved. But what about other conflicts creating equal suffering to civilians but not attracting any media attention and certainly no street protests nor statements from political leaders, influencers and the social media mob usually so quick to spew their vomit. -As at the time of writing, 10.30 am Friday March 13, a simple search verifies...

A graffiti message reading “Kill a Jew, go to heaven” was found over the weekend on a bike trail in New York City’s Riverside Park. The sprayed sentence was discovered on a large stone along the trail between 97th Street and 105th Street, located on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, a major hub of the Jewish community. The Combat Antisemitism Movement, a global coalition of pro-Jewish groups, tweeted that it was “a direct public call for violence against Jews.” The nonprofit added, “Last month alone, 28 antisemitic incidents were reported in New York.” U.S.-based organization StopAntisemitism also responded to...

A glaring vetting failure allowed anti-Israel radicals Sameerah Munshi and Carrie Prejean Boller to infiltrate President Trump’s White House Religious Liberty Commission, where Boller was rightfully removed for derailing an antisemitism hearing with anti-Zionist rhetoric and outdated tropes, prompting Munshi’s dramatic resignation in protest over that ouster and the U.S.-Israeli military action against Iran’s nuclear program. Anti-Israel activist and Carrie Prejean Boller ally Sameerah Munshi resigned from the White House Religious Liberty Commission. According to an announcement Munshi made on X on March 12, 2026, the self-described “Muslimah” and “Advocate” is resigning “over the injustice and atrocities of this administration...

Less than a week after 2 Jews were assaulted in San Jose, graffiti calling for the eradication of a "minimum" of 5 million Jews was left on a wall at SJSU. Israel National News. Published: Mar 15, 2026, 9:38 AM (GMT+2) Graffiti calling to "kill all Jews" and to "make Osama proud" was found at San Jose State University last week, ABC News 7 reported. The antisemitic graffiti included statements that March 11 would be like September 11 and that the "goal" is the death of "5 million Jews, minimum." The hateful message also included two Stars of David that...

Ted Cruz calls ‘Christ is King’ an anti-Semitic ‘code word’I agree with the statement 'Christ is King,' although it is being used online in a way that is meant to say, 'Screw you Jews,'' Cruz claimed.U.S. Senator Ted Cruz has joined in the chorus of voices who maintain that the phrase “Christ is King” is anti-Semitic.In a sit-down interview with the Christian Broadcasting Network this week, Cruz argued that those who use the phrase intend it to be an insult to Jewish people.“I’m really troubled by how the phrase ‘Christ is King’ is being used,” Cruz said. “I agree with...

Demonizing the Jews is one of the oldest tricks in the bag. In the early Middle Ages, the accusations against the Jews of Europe started to erupt, and in the first quarter of the 21st century, they haven't stopped. Justin Martyr accused us of being Christ killers in "Dialogue with Tripho", as early as A.D. 160. John Chrysostom, might very well be the poster child for early Christian antisemitism. In his work Adversus Judaeos (387), he describes the Jews as "lucious, rapacious, greedy, destroyers, demon-possessed and assassins of Christ." Then came the ritual murder libel of 1141 when Jews were...

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s wife, Rama Duwaji, created artwork for an essay book compiled by an anti-Israel activist who has described Jewish people as “vampires,” “demons” and “ghouls” – and celebrated the Oct. 7, 2023, terror attack on Israel. Duwaji, a Syrian American artist and first lady of New York City, drew the lead graphic for “A Trail of Soap,” an essay published by Susan Abulhawa in the Slow Factory’s latest issue of “Everything Is Political” magazine, the Washington Free Beacon reported on Thursday. Abulhawa is a staunch critic of Israel and has been criticized by the Anti-Defamation...

Sadly, there are not too many world leaders in the running for the title of most stalwart friend of Israel. U.S. President Donald Trump has to be near the top of that short list for the many pro-Israel actions he's taken while in the Oval Office. He recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel in 2017 and moved the U.S. Embassy there after failed promises from previous presidents to do so. In 2020, he brokered the Abraham Accords, which accomplished what so much of the world thought was impossible: the normalization of relations between Israel and several Arab states. And,...

Nearly everybody called out Tucker Carlson at the Republican Jewish Coalition’s symposium on antisemitism. Attendees clapped when Senator Ted Cruz of Texas called Carlson “the single-most dangerous demagogue in the country,” and speakers praised US President Donald Trump for recently casting him aside as “not MAGA.” There was no such praise for US Vice President JD Vance, however, who has made no decisive statement on Carlson, nor on Candace Owens. The two media personalities have come to represent an emerging anti-Israel wing of the Republican party that indulges in antisemitic conspiracy theories and is anathema to the RJC and its...

Two Jewish men were beaten, and later briefly hospitalized, after they were heard speaking Hebrew in front of a restaurant in San Jose’s Santana Row in California, local media reported on Tuesday. Footage of the incident, shot by local witnesses, shows the pair of victims attacked by three other individuals outside the Augustine restaurant, NBC Bay Area reported. “I just turned around, and they literally started punching,” one of the victims, who wished not to be identified, told the outlet. “We got swarmed very badly. I’m in a lot of pain. I still cannot chew. My jaw hurts, my back...

President Catherine Connolly has described the situation in the Middle East as a “deliberate assault on international law”. President Connolly’s comments come after the US and Israel’s conflict with Iran entered its second week. She said that “violations of the UN Charter cannot be ignored” and described what is being witnessed as “shocking and numbing”. In a statement marking International Women’s Day, President Connolly said: “What we have witnessed in recent days in the Middle East, and beyond, are not political disputes. They are deliberate assaults on international law, the international laws that have underpinned global peace for 80 years....

John Daniel Davidson at The Federalist accuses Benjamin Netanyahu of forcing President Trump to invade Iran. But as in so many situations, the accusation of “force” is not that straightforward. And Davidson doesn’t make a successful argumentAdvertisementDavidson opines on a statement made by Secretary of State Marco Rubio:‘It was abundantly clear that if Iran came under attack by anyone, the U.S. or Israel or anyone, they were going to respond against the United States,’ Rubio said. But later he added this: ‘We knew there was going to be an Israeli action. We knew that would precipitate an attack against American...

French President Emmanuel Macron said on Tuesday that he held talks with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Lebanese President Joseph Aoun, and Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam regarding what he described as a "very worrying" situation in Lebanon. Macron stated that he reaffirmed the need for Hezbollah to immediately cease its attacks against Israel and beyond, warning that what he called a strategy of escalation constitutes a major mistake that endangers the entire region. At the same time, Macron said he urged Prime Minister Netanyahu to preserve Lebanon’s territorial integrity and to refrain from launching a ground offensive. He stressed...

Actress Susan Sarandon said that she has been blacklisted in Hollywood due to her calls for a ceasefire in Gaza. “I was fired by my agency, specifically for marching and speaking out about Gaza, for asking for a ceasefire,” Sarandon said Friday during a conversation with Reuters. Her remarks came just before she was honored with the International Goya award at the Spanish Film Academy’s ceremony in Barcelona. “It became impossible for me to even be on television,” Sarandon said. “I don’t know lately if it’s changed. I couldn’t do any major film or anything connected with Hollywood.” Sarandon, who...
