Rabbi Birnbaum's response to the purity test demanded by the renter of a hiday house in France is absolutely magnificent and exemplary. My parents who were members of Finchley United Synagogue would have cheered him on and wished him a great shekoach.
On Yom HaShoah—while the world mourns the 6 million Jews murdered in the Holocaust—Polish MP Konrad Berkowicz’s vile stunt was not “political expression.”
It was a grotesque abuse of history and an insult to both the victims and the Polish Parliament. Comparing Israel to Nazi Germany, especially today, is beyond disgraceful—it is morally bankrupt.
Polish authorities must not remain silent. This demands a clear, unequivocal condemnation, real consequences, and long-term action. If we cannot defend the truth and dignity of Holocaust remembrance, we fail not only the past—but also our present.

“The people of Iran are living through a nightmare. This is the worst mass murder in Iran’s contemporary history. Our beautiful country has become a cemetery in which the hopes of our youth are buried.”
Watch these powerful and urgent remarks — and a devastating story shared by Dr. Payam Akhavan, former UN legal advisor on war crimes tribunals, former Special Advisor on Genocide to the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court, and one of the world’s leading international human rights lawyers — speaking at the @UN_HRC. His words are a searing indictment of the violence facing Iranians today — and a warning the world cannot afford to ignore. #IranMassacre
SHOCKING: Listen to Hamas survivor Ohad Ben Ami recount how, just a month before his release, a senior Hamas commander came to them with a horrifying demand:
Out of the 6 hostages held together, they had to choose three to be shot dead and three to be shot in the knees.
Hamas gave them an hour to talk, and to choose who would live and who would die, in front of a camera. In the end, Hamas spared them if they agreed to condemn the Israeli government.
This is the level of cruelty we’re dealing with. For Hamas, hostage lives are just a game.
50 hostages are still there. Still trapped with these monsters.
We must bring them home. Now.
In the Holocaust, Jews were forced to wear a Star of David in Europe.
Now that we’ve transformed it into a symbol of our national pride, they want us to hide it.
The Star of David flag is the symbol of a country born from the ashes of the Nazis' attempt to murder all Jews.
We won’t let anyone redefine it, least of all our haters 🇮🇱
We all know that @bbcnews put on a documentary that was fronted by the son of a senior Hamas official. The BBC was caught, took it down - and had its reputation shattered.
So now I want to talk about @Channel4News

I can't believe I have to say this: Holocaust Memorial Day is about the Holocaust.
Stop universalizing the Holocaust. Stop minimizing the horrors of the Holocaust. Stop weaponizing the Holocaust for your political agenda. Stop speaking over Jews.
It's that simple.
To every "Free Palestine" activist celebrating the release of Hamas prisoners instead of the three innocent girls today: I hope you never find yourself staring down dozens of masked terrorists screaming at you after 471 days of starvation and abuse in captivity.
These girls are as brave as you are ignorant and cruel—which is to say, they are the bravest women on the planet.
The Holocaust survivor who lost both of his grandchildren on Oct7, has passed away 💔
The family of Yosef Wiener was wiped out in the Holocaust, but he survived and moved to Israel. On Oct. 7th, he lost his grandson Yahav, his granddaughter Hadar, and her husband Itai.
He wrote before he died: “My name is Yosef, I am 97 years old, and I survived the Nazis barbaric hell. My entire family was eradicated.
Almost drowning, drained and in despair I moved to Zion to plant my roots back in my land and hold on to it.
But suddenly, from beyond the fences, the evil emerged again on the 7th of October.
The terrifying sights of fire and ash, the killing and murder of innocents, reached my family.
Once again, I find myself utterly drained, in despair, drowning.”
May their memory be a blessing 💔
Hamas have held a baby hostage for fourteen months
There is no universe where Hamas are on the side of anything that is right
Elected by the Palestinians, their goal is to exterminate Jews and become part of a global Islamic state
SHOCKING: A Jewish BBC staff member reported anonymously on how deeply institutionalized antisemitism has become at the BBC.
They revealed Jewish staff endure antisemitic and anti-Israel tirades almost daily, yet their concerns are dismissed by managers — even after 200 Jewish employees signed a letter about anti-Jewish racism at the BBC.
Furthermore, staff are using anti-Israel attitudes as a cover for their antisemitic views — something that was already a problem, but has worsened since 10/7.
Do you understand how dangerous this is? How many Jewish lives the BBC is putting at risk?
The BBC is not only intentionally misinforming the public about the reality of Israel’s war with Hamas, but it's actively making the UK unsafe for Jews.
Violent anti-Jewish racism in the UK has skyrocketed since October 7th, and institutional antisemitism in Britain’s media is allowing this violence to flourish.
Let me get this straight. In the last 3 days little girls have been attacked for being Jewish in East London & one was hospitalised. The @JFS schoolbus was boarded by thugs today and the Jewish school children threatened -Hendon has had posters put over saying Zionists should be killed. And no one seems to be doing anything about it. @SadiqKhan@metpoliceuk@LDNVictimsComm@CST_UK@antisemitism@YvetteCooperMP Its not 1936 but it sure as hell feels like it .
I’ve lost count at how many times @DouglasKMurray has had to educate @piersmorgan.
In fact I’ve lost count at how many times he’s had to educate most people.
He is the single best orator of our generation. We are all grateful for what Douglas does.
One of the biggest lies of anti-Israel activism is the idea that Israel is about 'Jewish supremacy' or not wanting to 'share the land'.
This is an inversion of reality. Israel is about Jewish survival in the face of Islamic supremacy. Just look at any map.
And there is not one single major Palestinian political group that actually wants to share the land with Jews. Just go look at what Palestinian Muslims have been doing to Palestinian Christians. There are almost none left. Even Bethlehem - which used to be about 80% Christian - is now dominated by Islam.
And while Israel is a democracy - with full voting rights for all - and there are large non Jewish minorities (mostly Muslim - about 20%).. the same is not true of any of its neighbours.
The entire region is one of Islam domination supressing minority groups and squeezing them out.
The fight between Israel and its neighbours is over this - Islamic domination. Not land - not settlements. The Islamic rulers want supremacy over every cm of land - while the Jews want freedom and do not want to become just another persecuted minority group living within a cruel Islamist society.
It is not me just saying it - just look at the populations. When Islamic religious leaders have control - there is no room for the freedom of anyone else. Every other group is squeezed out - until it is gone.
Afghanistan 99.7% Muslim
Somalia 99.8% Muslim
Iran 99.4% Muslim
Pakistan 96.5% Muslim
Algeria 99% Muslim
Morocco 99% Muslim
Niger 98% Muslim
Tunisia 98% Muslim
Gaza 99% Muslim
PA areas 97% Muslim
Jordan 97% Muslim
Yemen 97% Muslim
Mauritania 100% Muslim
Senegal 97% Muslim
Saudi 96% Muslim
Sudan 96% Muslim
Gambia 96%
Iraq 96% Muslim
Libya 97% Muslim
Get the picture? There is no room for anyone else. When you understand this - you can begin to understand the conflict.
Israel is the one tiny piece of freedom in a midst of Islamic controlled despots. Which is why they are so desperate to destroy it. Israel - a tiny country the size of Wales - not under their domination - and even that is too much for them.
On October 7th, Hamas kidnapped, murdered and sexually assaulted hundreds of Israeli women.
13 Israeli women are still being held hostage by Hamas in Gaza.
Today, on the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women, don't look away.
#NoExcuse #BelieveIsraeliWomen
This is the former head of UNRWA.
He told Hamas and Islamic Jihad: "We are one"
He's now the head of the Red Cross.
This isn't an Israeli issue. The world is being failed by corrupt international institutions that aren't fit for purpose.
