The incredible Emirati peace activist Laoy Alshareef explained a few days ago that Hezbollah’s constant attacks against Israeli civilians since the ‘cease-fire’ constitute major breaches of that agreement.
As Laoy puts it, “defending Lebanese sovereignty doesn’t mean allowing Hezbollah to turn Lebanon into a battlefield.”
Both Israeli and Lebanese civilians have had enough of Hezbollah’s control in the region. All civilians deserve safety from the grip of the Iranian regime’s terror proxies.

The U.S. Ambassador to the Netherlands, Joseph Popolo, met with Eddo Verdoner, the Netherlands’ National Coordinator for Countering Antisemitism. He commended Verdoner’s work and the ‘urgency of his efforts to secure university campuses for all students and vigilantly fight against online hate.’
The U.S. Ambassador also communicated that while the United States will always defend and protect the right to freedom of expression, it will also not “sit idly by” as individuals spread harassment and antisemitism.
We need all of our public officials fighting against the scourge of antisemitism around the world. Only then, will hate be defeated.
Israel sent a message of solidarity with the American people and their fallen soldiers on Memorial Day.
The bravery and fortitude of both of these nations’ know no end, and their contributions toward protecting freedom will never be forgotten. 🕯️ May the memories of the fallen always be blessed.

On this Memorial Day, we remember the fallen heroes of the United States Armed Forces who gave everything in defense of our country and the freedoms we hold dear.
Among them are Americans who served in dangerous missions against regimes and terrorist organizations that threaten innocent people around the world, including the Islamic Republic of Iran and its proxies.
We honor their courage, their sacrifice, and the families who carry their memory forward.
Their sacrifices will never be forgotten. May their memories be blessed. 🕯️🇺🇸
A suspect has been arrested after a months-long graffiti spree at San José State University that included messages such as “Kill all Jews.”
According to reports, threatening and racist graffiti targeting Jewish, Muslim, Black, and Asian students appeared across campus throughout the 2025 school year.
No student should have to walk through their university fearing harassment, intimidation, or violence because of who they are. Campuses must stop treating hate incidents as background noise and start confronting them with urgency and accountability.
Another serious credibility issue has emerged around the sources behind recent New York Times reporting on Israel.
According to the Washington Free Beacon, the Committee to Protect Journalists — a major source cited in Nicholas Kristof’s column accusing Israel of sexual abuse against Palestinian detainees — quietly removed six names from its Gaza journalist casualty list in the weeks before the piece was published.
That comes after CPJ had already acknowledged removing multiple names from its list after later determining those individuals were not civilian journalists or media workers.
But according to HonestReporting, the six additional names removed were not simply misclassified. HonestReporting says they were terror combatants, including individuals linked to Hamas, Islamic Jihad, and other armed Palestinian factions.
When media outlets rely on activist-adjacent data, anonymous allegations, and contested claims to publish explosive accusations against Israel, the burden of verification should be extraordinarily high.
Instead, too often, the allegations are amplified first and the corrections are quietly added later, after the damage is done.
Journalism is supposed to uncover the truth, not mold “facts” to fit a biased narrative.
CUNY Law’s 2026 graduation featured dozens of Palestinian flags alongside vile anti-Israel rhetoric.
Among the imagery displayed was a red inverted triangle, a symbol increasingly associated with pro-terror propaganda and intimidation. As the ADL website explains, the red triangle “first appeared in propaganda videos from the al-Qassam Brigades, Hamas’s military wing, marking Israeli military targets with inverted red triangles.”
Jewish students should not have to sit through celebrations of extremism at their own graduation ceremonies.
Universities have a responsibility to ensure campuses remain places of learning and inclusion, not platforms for glorifying hatred and terrorism.
A U.S. appeals court has temporarily allowed sanctions against UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese to remain in effect while the government’s appeal proceeds, after a lower court had blocked enforcement of the sanctions.
Albanese was sanctioned over allegations that she supported efforts to bring ICC action against U.S. and Israeli nationals. She has also repeatedly faced criticism from U.S., Israeli, and European officials, as well as Jewish organizations, for inflammatory anti-Israel rhetoric, minimizing antisemitism, and appearing at forums alongside figures such as Hamas leader Khaled Mashaal.
A UN human-rights official should be held to the highest standard of neutrality, accuracy, and moral seriousness.
International institutions cannot expect to maintain credibility while continuing to elevate figures who use human-rights platforms to demonize the world’s only Jewish state.
