🇮🇱 BOY GEORGE HONORED BY ISRAELI PRESIDENT HERZOG, MEETS FORMER HOSTAGE ELKANA BOHBOT
British music icon Boy George was honored at the President’s Residence in Jerusalem for his unwavering support of Israel and the Jewish people.
President Isaac Herzog presented him with a symbolic sculpture of red anemones inspired by the Nova massacre memorial.
“The people of Israel love you,” Herzog declared, “and thank you for standing with us.”
Former Hamas hostage and Nova survivor Elkana Bohbot attended the emotional meeting.
Boy George is in Israel ahead of two Tel Aviv concerts, including one dedicated to Nova survivors and their families.
Elon Musk claims that Ukraine allegedly violated Starlink's terms of use and used the system on combat drones.
As someone who was inside the process at the Ministry of Defense, I can say with certainty that this is not true.
In February of this year, whitelists were introduced. Stationary terminals could be registered by both military personnel and civilians.
But for any satellite terminal to work while on the move, it had to be added to a special list and connected to the military Starshield system. Otherwise, no satellite communication terminals in Ukraine would work.
In other words, using civilian Starlink for drone missions was technically impossible. All drone missions that required satellite communication could only be carried out using Starshield.
We are very grateful to the United States and SpaceX for access to critically important satellite communications. Ukraine did not violate the terms of use.
Nobels fredspris skulle gå till den som gjort störst nytta för mänskligheten – genom att verka för fred.
I stället går årets pris till vänsteraktivisten Navi Pillay, som gjort sig till en av den internationella Israelaktivismens främsta företrädare.
Den norska Nobelkommittén har återigen belönat politisk aktivism i stället för verkliga insatser för fred.
Fredspriset har för länge sedan fjärmats från Nobels testamente. Flytta det till Sverige – eller lägg ned det. Norrmännen klarar uppenbarligen inte uppdraget.
If there were an award for lies, hatred, and blood libels, Navi Pillay wouldn’t just be a contender. She’d be a frontrunner.
Her role in the relentless, politically motivated demonization of Israel and promotion of the genoLIE speaks volumes.
Awarding Pillay the Nobel Peace Prize isn’t a recognition of justice. It’s the grotesque weaponization of an award to legitimize anti-Israel hatred and prejudice.
Now that the Nobel commission has rewarded the biggest lie of the 21st century, Joseph Goebbels is certainly applauding from hell.
Hello haters.
Another Jewish Nobel laureate.
French chemist Henri B. Kagan has just won the 2026 Nobel Prize in Chemistry.
Jews account for roughly 22% of individual Nobel laureates, while Jews make up only about 0.2% of the world’s population.
Cette photo a été prise à Montréal le 8 octobre 2023.
Des femmes souriantes distribuant des friandises et des bonbons en signe de célébration. C’était des semaines avant qu’un seul soldat israélien entre à Gaza.
Le 7 octobre a été le choc initial. Mais pour les Juifs vivant à l’extérieur d’Israël, le 8 octobre a été une deuxième onde de choc : le jour où le chez-nous que nous pensions connaître a perdu sa fondation. Le jour où je me suis réveillé d’un profond somnambulisme et où j’ai affronté la réalité du monde dans lequel nous vivons.
Si on m’avait demandé la veille, ou à n’importe quel moment de ma vie auparavant, si le massacre de Juifs pouvait être célébré publiquement dans les rues de Montréal, j’aurais répondu : jamais!
Mais ce n’était pas seulement Montréal. C’était partout dans le monde. Et cela ne s’est pas arrêté là : harcèlement, insultes racistes, cocktails Molotov, coups de feu contre des écoles juives et intimidation. Trop souvent, tout cela a reçu comme réponse un leadership faible et sans courage, offrant des déclarations creuses plutôt que des gestes concrets.
Le 7 octobre m’a profondément blessé. Le 8 octobre m’a changé à jamais.
Je ne pense pas que je reconnaîtrais la personne que j’étais avant le 7 octobre. J’étais si naïf, convaincu que l’antisémitisme appartenait largement au passé et que le monde autour de moi était plus sûr qu’il ne l’était réellement.
Je continuerai de regarder cette image comme un rappel que le mal est réel, qu’il est ici et qu’il demeure bien vivant. Notre responsabilité est de le dénoncer, de l’affronter et d’élever des enfants fiers, forts, résilients et sans peur.
Gaza Ministry of Health has now released mortality numbers for 2025. For the first time since the war, they give numbers for all deaths, including natural deaths.
In 2025 there were a total of 24,650 deaths in Gaza. 18,870 (76.6%) of these were violent, of which 17,286 (70.1%) were due to "war operations" and 1,584 (6.4%) were classified as accidents. There were a total of 5,780 (23.4%) non-violent deaths, including disease, old age, and all other causes.
5,780 deaths is about the same as the annual non-violent mortality in Gaza before the war, and the age distribution is similar to 2022. There is no significant excess of non-violent deaths.
In other words, despite frequent and loud claims to the contrary, there seems to be very few indirect deaths due to the war in Gaza in 2025.
As there were 50,227 births in 2025, this gives a natural population growth of 25,577 or 1.2% in Gaza in 2025, which is higher population growth than most countries in the world and more than the world average.
There are currently ~6,000 births/month in Gaza, per GMH. Assuming a similar number of non-violent deaths in Gaza in 2026 as in 2025, that means there are currently 12x more births than deaths in Gaza, and that Gaza is now experiencing one of the highest population growths in the world.
