A U.S. Army soldier stationed at Fort Polk, Louisiana, has been charged after allegedly making antisemitic threats on Discord in which he said, “I am going to walk into a synagogue with my AK...and I am going to kill every single Jew...” The DOJ says the FBI investigated after a tip and arrested him on April 23.
This is the reality of antisemitism in America: threats serious enough to trigger federal charges are becoming more and more common. Jewish communities deserve protection, accountability, and a society that treats threats against synagogues with absolute seriousness.
Duke University acknowledged that SJP’s online content alluded to antisemitic tropes, and still chose to reverse the group’s suspension.
According to the Duke Chronicle, a University official explained in a letter to SJP, “The post, while offensive, in that it alludes to antisemitic tropes, does not violate the Policy on Prohibited Discrimination, Harassment and Related Misconduct [PPDHRM] because there was insufficient information to support the existence of a hostile educational environment.”
The post in question contained a decades old illustration depicting two pigs standing nose-to-nose, holding hands, with one pig’s sleeve labeled “US Imperialism”, and the other’s labeled “Zionism”.
UNWRA indoctrination: is it still happening?
UN Watch has shared video footage reportedly showing a student at an UNRWA school speaking 2024. According to the translation, the student advocates violence against Jews and glorifies martyrdom.
Instead of learning to uphold peace and coexistence as fundamental values, many Palestinian children are being radicalized by the very institutions that are supposed to help them.
Yet another Gaza flotilla attempted to breach Israel’s naval blockade and its participants were detained by Israeli authorities.
Israel’s Foreign Ministry later shared footage showing some of the ‘activists’ engaging in recreational gymnastics aboard the Israeli vessel after being taken into custody.
The point of the Gaza flotillas isn’t actually to help Palestinians, it’s to propagate media narratives against Israel.
This video shows a snippet of the reality.
The UN just selected Iran to be one of 34 vice president nations at the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty review conference which is set to begin on April 27th, a decision that sparked immediate backlash from multiple member states.
The Islamic Republic of Iran has repeatedly been accused of violating nuclear commitments, openly teaches genocidal dogma against Israel, America, and the West at large, and yet is now being granted the privilege of heading a conference about stopping nuclear threats.
You can’t make this stuff up.
Georgia lawmakers have passed two major education-related bills which are now headed to Governor Brian Kemp’s desk for signature: HB1379 and SB523.
HB1379 is a major transparency measure. It requires public educational institutions to report foreign funding of $10,000 or more from foreign countries or entities, with specific attention to countries including Qatar and Saudi Arabia. At a time when foreign funding of American education is receiving growing scrutiny, this bill gives the public more visibility into outside influence in Georgia schools.
SB523 addresses how Georgia schools handle discrimination complaints. The bill creates a statewide K-12 Title VI Coordinator and establishes a state process for monitoring and responding to discrimination complaints in public schools. Supporters say this will help families seek accountability when schools fail to respond adequately to antisemitic harassment and other forms of discrimination.
Together, the bills reflect a growing recognition that schools need both
A benefit concert for victims of the Bondi terror attack was canceled because members of the Australian Hellenic Choir reportedly voted against performing alongside the Sydney Jewish Choral Society.
According to the choir’s founder, the group refused the collaboration because of the political climate.
Even an event meant to support victims of antisemitic terror was derailed by the exclusion of Jews.
Breaking: Two Jewish men were stabbed in London’s Golders Green neighborhood in what reports suggest was an antisemitic attack. The victims are reportedly in stable condition, and a suspect was arrested after community security volunteers and police intervened.
This is the same Jewish neighborhood where Hatzola ambulances were recently targeted in an arson attack. Jewish communities in the West are facing escalating threats, and governments must treat this as the emergency it is.
