The Latest From @MacTaskForce
What kind of country allows a Jewish member of Congress to be publicly told he is unwelcome at a coffee shop in Brooklyn because of his support for Israel?
The fact that this happened to Congressman Dan Goldman in New York City should alarm every American, regardless of politics.
When hostility toward Israel becomes an excuse to deny service, shame Jews publicly, or treat Zionism as a disqualifying identity, that is not activism. It is discrimination.
If people are comfortable targeting a Jewish public official today, they will feel even more emboldened to target ordinary Jews tomorrow.
Thank you to Scott Jennings for recognizing this for what it is: hateful bigotry.
Antisemitism cannot be allowed to hide behind false “activism.”
MTF Student Board member and Israel trip alumna, Blessing Mathabela, recently attended the 2026 JNS International Policy summit, speaking about her experiences in Israel on our trip as well as about our mission.
Blessing is a South African student at Wits University, and her story is an example of one of the most important journeys of education and discovery we can uplift.
Thank you Blessing, for your courage, your intellectual honesty, and your especially deep compassion for the Israeli women who were brutalized, tortured, and murdered on October 7th and afterward in captivity.
We need the young people of the world to open their eyes, and finally see the truth through real world experiences.
For years, UNRWA has claimed to be an impartial humanitarian organization.
But according to UN Watch, senior Hamas figures Fathi al-Sharif and Suhail al-Hindi were placed in positions overseeing UNRWA schools.
This means generations of students have been indoctrinated by lessons teaching hatred toward Jews and glorifying terrorism.
No child should be taught to hate, and no international institution funded by democracies should be enabling the spread of violence antisemitism and extremism.
On June 19, the world marked the International Day for the Elimination of Sexual Violence in Conflict.
Israel’s Foreign Ministry commemorated the day by re-sharing testimony documented by The Civil Commission, reminding the world of the horrific sexual violence perpetrated by Hamas during October 7 and afterwards against hostages in captivity.
Sexual violence against Israelis was ignored, denied, minimized, and excused because it was politically inconvenient to acknowledge it. That willful blindness cannot be tolerated.
The victims of October 7 deserve the same recognition, justice, and advocacy afforded to victims of conflict-related sexual violence everywhere.
Abdollah Haji-Sadeghi, a senior advisor to Iran’s Supreme Leader, communicated that the country will never normalize relations with the United States and will never stop trying to destroy israel.
As some continue to portray the Islamic Republic as a normal state seeking peace and stability, its own leaders continue to make their intentions clear. The regime remains committed to the destruction of the world’s only Jewish state while funding, arming, and directing terrorist proxies across the Middle East.
The regime means to execute exactly what it says it will, so don’t let anyone tell you that their aspirations are different to what they themselves say.
An Israeli great-grandmother dancing with joy at the henna celebration of her great-granddaughter.
A henna is a traditional Middle Eastern and Jewish pre-wedding celebration that brings together family, music, culture, and generations of shared history. In this case, the festivities were accompanied by a Kurdish band, honoring the rich heritage that many Jewish families brought with them to Israel from across the Middle East.
This is the Israel too often left out of the headlines: generations celebrating together, preserving ancient traditions, and passing their culture from great-grandparents to great-grandchildren.
🚨 Reports are emerging of a deadly shooting incident involving police in Montreal’s Côte-des-Neiges neighborhood, home to a large Jewish community.
Current reporting indicates that at least one officer was killed and two other people were injured in the attack. The suspect is reprotedly deceased as well.
Details are still developing, and authorities have not yet confirmed the motive.
But the fear felt by Jewish communities is real. Across Canada and the West, Jewish families have increasingly been forced to ask whether their synagogues, schools, neighborhoods, and community gatherings are safe.
We are monitoring the situation closely and standing with the residents of Montreal, the Jewish community, and law enforcement responding to the scene.
May the victim’s memories be a blessing, and may the wounded recover quickly.
According to University of Sydney Professor Dr. Michael Abrahams-Sprod, one of the biggest challenges in combating antisemitism is a lack of basic knowledge, even in university environments, where awareness is often assumed.
No one can effectively confront prejudice if there’s little to no public understanding of the people being targeted. Education is not the entire solution, but it’s where the solution begins.
Understanding Jewish history, Jewish identity, and the realities of antisemitism is essential to building a more informed and inclusive university environment.
