Betrayal and humiliation. That is how Trump treats America’s allies. I have been saying so ever since The Empire and the Five Kings. Here, my last column in Le Point. Israel is the latest case in a long series.

Ces propos du vice-président américain sur Israël sont ignobles. Puissent-ils ne pas être le signe d’un tournant dans les relations entre les deux pays…

[Ofer Binshtok - Kafir - עופר בינשטוק @Ofer_binshtok]

JD Vance likes to threaten Israel by pointing out how much of our weapons come from the US, but he completely ignores history. This dependency was manufactured by Washington. What does he want us to do, buy our jets from China? Or maybe he wants Israel to build its own?

Let's remind him that back in the 1980s, Israel was developing the Lavi, a fighter jet that would easily be one of the best in the world today. It was the US that pressured and forced Israel to cancel the project because American defense contractors didn't want the competition. You can't force us to shut down our independent fighter jet program to protect US corporate profits, and then turn around and complain that we rely on US jets. If Israel has to fully decouple and build its own platforms again, we can. But don't pretend this dependency wasn't your choice.

Day after day, taking distance with Israel. If not worse…

[Fox News @FoxNews]

BREAKING: President Trump publicly rebukes Israel over its war against Hezbollah.

"Israel's fighting Hezbollah too long and too many people are being killed."

Trump said he opposed strikes that destroy apartment buildings filled with civilians and revealed he urged Israel to let Syria take the lead against Hezbollah instead.

"If Israel can't do the job without killing everyone else, he'll do the job. Syria will do the job."

Russia is attacking the very stones in which the soul of the Ukrainian people resides.

By setting fire to Kyiv’s Cathedral of the Assumption, the spiritual heart of Ukraine for nearly a thousand years, it has struck the Ukrainian equivalent of Notre-Dame de Paris.

[The Ukrainian Week / Tyzhden @ukr_week_en]

🚨Russia struck the famous Dormition Cathedral of Kyiv‑Pechersk Lavra, a UNESCO World Heritage site & priceless cultural landmark. #Kyiv facing ballistic missiles tonight.
«A brutal assault on our people & our heritage. This is the true face of Russia’s Orthodox values»🇺🇦PM said.

Trump abandoned the Kurds, the Afghans, the Ukrainians, and the Iranians. Today, he is abandoning the Israelis (and their Arab allies). I have been saying so, and writing so, for years. But I have never been so saddened to be proved right.

[Bernard-Henri Lévy @BHL]

On Oct 16, I’ll be in Warsaw to say that this is the next frontline in Ukraine’s war for freedom against russian barbarism. Now, more than ever, #Poland and #Europe must stand with #Ukraine and not let up one minute.

ZELENSKY: I told Trump that I didn’t play with Putin. For us, it’s very serious. It’s not about cards.

I didn’t have cards, but I had the most important — smart and brave people. This is our card — the card of Ukraine. That’s why we’re now very strong with our drone technology.

Yesterday. The Tank with the New Jewish Theater. What if the next Dreyfus Affair happened in NY? MAGA: « Jews + warmongers ». Mamdani: « Jews = baby killers and genocide ». The 2 ingredients of a new Dreyfus Affair!

[Bernard-Henri Lévy @BHL]

Oui. C’était sur la scène de The Tank, off Broadway. J’ai cité, d’un côté, les MAGA en train de convaincre l’Amerique que la guerre en Iran est la guerre des Juifs et que les Juifs sont donc, comme chez Céline, des fauteurs de guerre. De l’autre, les Démocrates style Mamdani qui les accusent d’être des génocideurs et des tueurs de bébés. Et j’ai conclu que la prochaine Affaire Dreyfus sera peut être américaine.

[Tali Goldsheft @TaliGoldsheft]

Tonight, @BHL stood onstage in NYC, while most New Yorkers were getting ready to watch the Knicks.

He told us, with great sadness in his eyes, how he spent the day speaking with New Yorkers on the right and on the left who blame all the world’s ills on the Jews.

He quoted our own mayor, when he made outrageous claims about who “laces the boots” of those committing police brutality.

And then, he noted in horror that the next Dreyfus Affair may very well take place in NYC. Who will speak up, he asked us all.

[Bernard-Henri Lévy @BHL]

Reçu, ici, à NYC, ces images d’ovation à Olivier Nora. C’était la présentation aux libraires de sa dernière rentrée Grasset. Après tant de violence, médisance et injustice, quel réconfort ! Olivier, il me semble, ne pouvait rêver plus belle réparation.

Arrivée à NY. Courir à la dernière répétition de “Dreyfus in Rehearsal Again”, au Théâtre The Tank, off Broadway. Je joue à partir de demain. On me dit à l’instant : “sold out”.

[Bernard-Henri Lévy @BHL]

Dans l’avion pour NYC. Sur scène, dès demain soir, pour le Dreyfus de Grumberg, adapté au « Tank », le théâtre expérimental et mythique de « off Broadway ». Cette aventure me plaît décidément beaucoup.

[Bernard-Henri Lévy @BHL]

In a few hours, it’ll be the Israel Day Parade in NYC. Mamdani is the first mayor in 60 years not to attend. Well, I’ll be in NYC, honoring the the Dreyfus Day that will be another sort of Parade. Come all at the Off-Broadway theater, The Tank. It will be fun. Ans important

Bernard-Henri Lévy reflects on Jean-Claude Grumberg’s haunting play about antisemitism, memory, and political hysteria—and why its warnings now feel aimed squarely at the United States. https://t.co/2DCYQf5ncg

Following the successful presentation of the film, Our War, in Kyiv before students of Taras Shevchenko National University on the 4th anniversary of the full-scale invasion in February, New Yorkers and guests of the city now have a unique opportunity to see Bernard-Henri Lévy’s @BHL powerful documentary on the big screen and engage with him in person.

The film chronicles Ukraine’s heroic resistance against russia’s barbaric war of aggression and serves as a powerful reminder that Ukraine today stands on the frontline defending the values of the free world.

Thank you, Bernard for your tireless work documenting this war and bringing the truth about Ukraine’s fight to international audiences.
Slava Ukraini!
