I reject outright the statement of the UK Foreign Secretary and the patronising tone of his words.

The Jewish people have the right to live throughout the Land of Israel, just as the British have the right to live in London and throughout the United Kingdom. More than a century ago, the Balfour Declaration formally recognised the historic right of the Jewish people to re-establish their national home in the Land of Israel - including in the area in question.

Britain itself still controls colonial territories thousands of miles from its shores. It is absurd for Britain to lecture the Jewish people about where they may live in their historic tiny homeland, when the Jewish people’s connection and right to this land is the most extensively documented of any people in human history.

There have been no new decisions regarding development in E1. The decision was made on 2025.
The tender process has been underway for several months, with certain tender documents published only in recent days.

The British Foreign Secretary’s statement is entirely one-sided.
It condemns Israel while turning a blind eye to Palestinian terrorism, incitement and the Palestinian Authority’s continued financial support for terror - the “pay for slay” policy.

The UK Government’s systematic policy of blaming only Israel while ignoring Palestinian extremism has already contributed to a massive wave of antisemitic hatred and attacks against the British Jewish community. Continuing down this path will only make the situation worse.

The UK Government’s decision to damage the relationship between our countries is deeply unfortunate. But Israel will not be a passive victim of this policy.
Israel will defend its rights, its interests and its people.

Do you suffer from Israel Derangement Syndrome??

The ICC has become a kangaroo court that cloaks its abuse of power in the language of international law while undermining the very principles of justice.

I commend Secretary of State Marco Rubio for leading the Trump Administration's determined efforts against the ICC's illegitimate overreach, and for making clear that the corrupt officials who lead the ICC will face consequences.

[Secretary Marco Rubio @SecRubio]

Last month, I launched a diplomatic campaign to dismantle the ICC’s threat to our national sovereignty. The Trump Administration is sanctioning ICC President Tomoko Akane and Senior Trial Lawyer Abdoulaye Seye in our unwavering mission to protect Americans from this sham of a court. In honor of our Declaration of Independence, Americans will never be transported beyond seas to be tried for pretend offenses.

The Green Party leadership in Hackney specifically telling the Mayor of an Israeli city that he has until *7 October* to respond to their intention to cancel their twinning agreement is some next level evil, even for those ghouls.

The IDF found this underground Hezbollah military fortress 300 meters from a UNIFIL post.

Do you really think the Chinese, Indonesian & Irish “peacekeepers” had no idea what Iran’s proxy army was digging under their noses?

And if they had no idea, what was the point of them?

Sitting outside a pub in Little Venice in London right now waiting to photograph an event near here this evening. An orthodox Jewish family walked past. A husband, his wife, their toddler and a baby in a pram. An Arab girl in her twenties just walked up to them and made a gun sign with her hand and said die. Then pointed the ‘gun’ at their each child and said die. She stood there threatening and laughing as she wished them dead. I told her to fuck off and she wandered away laughing. I’m angry at myself for not videoing her instead so you can see the depths of the vermin in this country, protected by the mayor, the police and the government. Photo of where I watched it. Truly awful.

Rabbi Levine: “When I was growing up the only time we saw security outside of my synagogue or my Jewish day school was when the mayor came to speak. The police were there to protect him. Today every time the mayor speaks we need the police to protect us.”

Powerful words from @TimSheehyMT.

It’s time for America to finish the job.

[Ben Shapiro @benshapiro]

Tisha B'Av commemorates the destruction of the First and Second Temples, located on the Temple Mount, in Jerusalem, Israel. You know, historic and current Jewish territory. Thanks for your best wishes.

[Ambassador Mike Huckabee @GovMikeHuckabee]

Would be easy to say NY Mayor is just an ignorant bigot, but he is not dumb. He's an evil anti-Semite who deliberately lies about serious things like "genocide" to stoke Jew hate. If anyone should be arrested, it's the Mayor of NY for incitement. NYC should be ashamed.

[Ben Shapiro @benshapiro]

I tuned into Joe Rogan yesterday and heard Bernie Sanders' economics, Barack Obama's foreign policy, and Ro Khanna's conspiracy theories.

And then I realized JD Vance was talking.

I want a candidate in 2028 who doesn't mirror the Democrats -- and who can win.

Mr. VP, this is not the way.

[Secretary Marco Rubio @SecRubio]

The International Criminal Court seeks to become the unaccountable arbiter of a new global law — empowered to prosecute and arrest our citizens at will and existentially threaten American sovereignty.

We will teach the ICC the full meaning of American resolve.

[Arsen Ostrovsky @Ostrov_A]

⚠️ After almost 3 years, the UN finally admits that Hamas is systematically hijacking aid in Gaza and endangering humanitarian personnel.

Will the int'l press report this? Will world leaders call this out? Will the human rights and Free Gaza champions speak out?

We will never forget you

[Ben Shapiro @benshapiro]

All the worst people you know agree on one thing.

The far Left, the groyper Right, and Iranian state television are all celebrating the death of Lindsey Graham. Same posts. Same glee. The horseshoe has become a wedding ring.

Lindsey Graham spent 33 years in uniform, half a century in public service, and his last 48 hours on earth in Kyiv standing up for the free world. His enemies spent the day proving exactly why he fought them.

RIP.

[Eyal Yakoby @EYakoby]

Iran is currently attacking every country in the Middle East except for Israel.

Why? Because they know that if they attack, Israel will be flying over the skies of Tehran immediately.

Peace through strength.

[Stephen Miller @StephenM]

At the end of a particularly thrilling and rollicking meeting in the Oval Office, Lindsey Graham turned to the room and said: “I’ve never had this much fun in my life.”

I cannot describe to you how much joy President Trump’s leadership and friendship brought to Lindsey. Meetings with Graham at the White House were filled with camaraderie, kinship and uproarious laughter.

As heartbreaking as his sudden passing is, I hope it will bring some measure of comfort to those who cherished him to know just how much he was living his dream every day. Very rarely in life do you get to be exactly where you want to be, when you want to be there, with who you want to be with, doing precisely what you want to do — that was every moment for Lindsey.

When President Trump won in Nov 2024, Lindsey was exultant. Elated. And determined. He couldn’t wait to spearhead work, as the Budget Chairman, on the reconciliation bill that would cement President Trump’s most important campaign promises. I’ll never forget the senate lunch, when a couple Senators were a tad off the program, and Lindsey — in his inimitable way — made sure everyone was onside by the time we left. It was a glorious thing to witness. He knew how to move a room.

Lindsey was a senator’s senator. The job was everything to him. Truly did he believe in the splendor of the office and the noble lineage behind it, of which he was the worthy heir.

He was a senator in the mold of those who fashioned the institution, someone who still had the ability, in a heated exchange, to use rhetorical power to change the course of events.

Which is why we will never forget his legendary Kavanaugh moment. We rarely think that we are out of time with our friends, so while there is a lot more I wish I could have said to Lindsey, I am glad that more than once I told him what that moment meant to the whole nation and why he was the only Senator who could have done it with such utter perfection.

Most importantly, I had the chance to tell him on many occasions what his friendship meant to me and to us all. There was never once a time he didn’t answer a phone call and lend whatever assistance was required. It was never a question with Lindsey. He believed deeply in the code of friendship and loyalty.

The fact that Lindsey started out as a political opponent only to become one the President’s most steadfast and faithful supporters underscores that Lindsey believed emphatically in the voice of the people.

There is a lot more I would like to say. His passing, at a time when he had never been more dynamic, is as unexpected as it is shocking. In many respects, Lindsey was the last of a breed of American Senator whose like we may not yet see again for a long time.

He lived every minute in the arena, a political gladiator to the very last.

More than anything now, our thoughts are with his Sister, nieces and loved ones.

We pray that God will ease their sorrow and heal their pain.

Lindsey can never be replaced and will never be forgotten.

Godspeed, my friend.
