Two visibly Jewish men were stabbed in Golders Green, one of Britain’s most Jewish neighborhoods.
But major UK outlets called them “people,” stripping the attack of its obvious antisemitic context.
When Jews are targeted as Jews, the media should be able to say so. https://t.co/hYYjROnHO2

[Nicole Lampert @nicolelampert]

Incredibly powerful interview.

[Jonathan Sacerdoti @jonsac]

Several ambulances belonging to the Jewish volunteer emergency service Hatzolah were deliberately set alight overnight outside a synagogue in Golders Green, a predominantly Jewish area of London. The attack was carried out by masked individuals and is being treated as an anti-Semitic incident.

Hatzolah is a volunteer-run emergency medical service that provides rapid response care, often arriving faster than standard ambulances due to its locally based responders. It was founded within Jewish communities to offer culturally aware support but serves anyone in need and works alongside organisations such as the NHS.

[Jewish News @JewishNewsUK]

‘The targeting of life-saving vehicles stationed in the car park of a synagogue is particularly chilling and will send shockwaves through our community at a time of already heightened fears over antisemitism in the UK.‘

Another Iranian ballistic missile barrage at Israel, as we're learning more about Israeli strikes against Hezbollah.

"Within a matter of minutes Israeli planes were in the skies — eliminating over 30 Hezbollah terrorists in under 3 hours," a senior Israeli official told Fox News.

[HonestReporting @HonestReporting]

"Fiery hostility."

That's what you call turning his country into the world's biggest exporter of terror and working towards the destruction of the Jewish state, @Reuters?

Oh, and Khamenei didn't simply die. Credit where credit's due.

Interesting thread regarding latest developments on the ground in the Middle East ⬇️⬇️

[MIND ISRAEL @MIND_ISRAEL]

1/ Iran launched about 180 missiles and drones at Israel in the first day of the war. But within days we should see a decline in Iranian attacks as a result of joint Israeli/U.S. operations, says former Air Defense Commander Zvika Haimovich, a senior advisor at MIND Israel

[Bernie News Network @BNews_Network]

A joint command post for locating missing individuals has been set up at the Beit Shemesh impact zone, now fully under the direction of the Home Front Command together with municipal officials. Deputy Mayor Shlomo Brillant and city teams are coordinating ongoing searches and managing the broader response effort. ZAKA volunteers are working amid extremely difficult conditions, and additional search activity is expected to continue through the night.

Significant damage was recorded across the area, including storefronts near the entrance to Rechov HaNasi that were blown out by the blast wave. At the scene, one vehicle was found burned and is being inspected, while another car was struck by interception debris, shattering its windows. Heavy machinery is currently operating to clear rubble and aid rescue teams.

Rechov HaShiva and surrounding streets remain closed, and authorities are urging residents and onlookers to stay away from the area entirely, emphasizing that unnecessary presence obstructs emergency forces. Road closures will stay in place until response teams complete their work.

American refueler aircraft have been spotted at Ben Gurion Airport as part of the U.S. military buildup in the Middle East. Israeli authorities have not commented on the deployment at Israel's main civilian airport. CENTCOM told BNN it had "nothing to provide" on the situation.

The humanitarians who were silent during the worst massacre of our time finally speak up on Iran, but not to say “stop the killing.”

To say “don’t send help.”

[US Holocaust Museum @HolocaustMuseum]

Anne Frank was targeted and murdered solely because she was Jewish. Leaders making false equivalencies to her experience for political purposes is never acceptable. Despite tensions in Minneapolis, exploiting the Holocaust is deeply offensive, especially as antisemitism surges.

[Alex גדעון בן װעלװל @JewishWonk]

You can talk about the state wrongfully executing Americans exercising their 1A rights without invoking the Holocaust.

Our dead relatives are not your political prop. Please find another metaphor.

“I sat down to write my pain, and out poured loss, suffering, love, mourning, devotion, grief, adoration, and fracturedness. This book recounts the first steps of a million-mile odyssey that will take the rest of my life to walk on shattered feet.”

Rachel Goldberg-Polin, the mother of the late Hirsh Goldberg-Polin z”l, who was murdered in Hamas captivity, speaks on the upcoming release of her memoir.

Since the hostages were taken by Hamas on October 7, 2023, Rachel has been one of the most articulate and inspiring voices, guiding the outside world through her reflections as a grieving mother.

This book is simply another arm extended, inviting everyone in to feel her heartbreak, love, wisdom, and humanity as she navigates the unimaginable.

It won’t be an easy read, but it will be one of the most important ones we ever undertake.

[Matthew Nouriel @MatthewNouriel]

Reports are coming in that the regime in Iran is bringing foreign militias into the country to suppress the uprising — including Hezbollah and regime-aligned Iraqi groups.

When a regime relies on non-Iranian forces to murder its own population, it is not governing through consent. It is ruling through occupation.

From its inception in 1979, the Islamic Republic aligned itself with foreign jihadist movements — including Palestinian armed groups — to control Iranians.

To them, Iran is a base for their Islamist ideological project, not a nation rooted in its people and culture.

That is why we call this regime an occupier. The regime in Iran is not of Iran — it is foreign.

It’s curious how the supposed anti-occupation crowd vanishes the moment they might actually be useful.

[Alex Gandler @AlexGandler]

The testimonies of Israeli hostages who were sexually abused have been shamefully under-covered.

Young women and men were brutalised, and then ignored.
This was not random. It was a systemic culture of rape and sexual violence carried out by Palestinian terrorists.

The BBC has apologized and compensated the Horenstein family from Netiv Ha’asara after filming inside their October 7-hit home without proper consent. The story captures how raw those wounds still are.

Even in this ever changing news cycle, this panel conversation remains as relevant as ever. Fascinating and pertinent to examine the rising antisemitic tide that we face. @dansenor @bariweiss
