Even Arab leaders admit it.

Everyone is sharing the Bill Clinton clip where he describes how Yasser Arafat rejected a generous peace offer at Camp David that would have given the Palestinians a state on 96 percent of the West Bank, land swaps, and a capital in East Jerusalem. Clinton says Arafat lied to him and that the Palestinian leadership never actually wanted a two-state solution. They wanted to destroy Israel. It’s a video often shared by people like @VividProwess, and it’s an important one for people to see.

Of course, critics immediately dismiss it. They claim Clinton is biased or he’s pro-Israel. They’ll tell you that you cannot trust the American perspective.

Ok, so let us set that aside.

Now watch this.

In this powerful interview, former Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, a major Arab leader who was directly involved in negotiations, says exactly the same thing from the Arab side. He talks about the Mena House Conference in Cairo as well as the Camp David negotiations of 1978. All failed because of the Palestinians repeatedly rejecting any offer. The Oslo accords were signed but because Hamas and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad were not involved, they derailed the accords and any chance for peace by initiating 4 years of terrorist suicide attacks in Israel. Then came the second Camp David negotiations in 2000 which Arafat agreed to, then rejected and instead initiated the Second Intifada.

Mubarak explains how the Palestinians refused to even participate in the Mena House conference of 1977. He describes repeated opportunities they were given, including a detailed document that called for Israeli withdrawal from the Samaria, Judea and Gaza, security arrangements during a transitional period, and other major concessions. The Israelis were willing to negotiate on difficult issues like who would control security. The Palestinians, according to Mubarak, kept saying no and wasting chance after chance.

He speaks with clear frustration about how for decades the Palestinian side has rejected peace initiatives and realistic compromises.

The video further shows footage from the PLO representative in 1977, as well as old footage of Egyptian president Sadat who was involved in the Mena House and first Camp David negotiations of 1978.

This perhaps is far more impactful than Clinton’s account because it is not a Western or Israeli voice. It is prominent Arab leaders who lived the negotiations, who represented the broader Arab world, and who had zero incentive to defend Israel.

When leaders from both sides of the table describe the same pattern of Palestinian rejectionism and violence, it becomes much harder to dismiss as bias.

The pattern is clear across decades and across different voices… generous offers, repeated refusals, and continued demands for everything while giving nothing in return.

This is not ancient history. It is the core reason the conflict continues today.

If you value the truth, please share.

[Jew in a Canoe ✡️🇨🇦 memoir now available! @WillieHandler]

by Jonathan Fisher, MD, FACC

I am a Jewish physician, and I have never written about that here. I am going to, because of a surgeon I have never met. Emmanuel Moss, chief of cardiac surgery at Montreal’s Jewish General Hospital, is leaving for Atlanta in September.He is one of the few surgeons in Canada routinely performing robotic mitral valve and coronary bypass procedures. People close to him say the deciding factor was not Quebec’s strained healthcare system, which had been strained for years, but a growing sense that he was no longer safe in the city as a Jew.

The hospital he is leaving opened in 1934 with the first official non-discrimination policy of any hospital in Canada. It was founded in response to an era when many Jewish physicians faced discrimination in medical training and hospital appointments. The historical echo is difficult to miss.

When a clinician leaves because of who they are, a health system does not lose a statistic. It loses a specific person who held specific knowledge, relationships, judgment, and expertise developed over decades.

A 2024 survey of Canadian Jewish physicians found that reported antisemitism in hospitals rose from near zero before October 2023 to 39 percent after, and that nearly a third of respondents were considering leaving the country. The association’s chair warned that the consequences could include the loss of hundreds of physicians at a time when the healthcare system can least afford it. That mechanism is not unique to Jews. It is what happens whenever people feel unsafe because of their identity. Experts leave. Communities become poorer in ways that are difficult to measure. Eventually, patients and their families pay the price.

I am writing this as a Jewish physician because this story landed personally. I am writing it as a physician leader because I have spent decades thinking about what allows caring people to do their best work, and what it costs when they cannot. When any clinician feels unsafe because of who they are, something is lost long before they decide to leave.This time, the story touched my own community. That does not make it less relevant to anyone else. It does make it harder for me to stay silent.

The most important rabbi at Yeshiva University never gets political.

Today he broke that rule urging thousands of his students to register and vote @RepEspaillat.

That’s how important this election is.

Register now. Vote June 23rd.

On This Day — June 3, 1948

Over half a million Arabs poured into Mandate Palestine in just 12 years to take advantage of the economic opportunities created by Jewish development — the only place in the entire Middle East with a growing Arab middle class.

Robert F. Kennedy, then only 22, made that striking observation in his reporting from British Mandate Palestine in April 1948 (just weeks before Israel’s independence). His dispatch was published this day in the Boston Post.

RFK wrote:

“The Jews point with pride to the fact that over 500,000 Arabs ... came into Palestine to take advantage of living conditions existing in no other Arab state. This is the only country in the Near and Middle East where an Arab middle class is in existence.”

He described how the Jews had transformed arid desert into flourishing orange groves through relentless labor and ingenuity. Tel Aviv had grown from a small village into a modern metropolis of over 200,000 in a single generation.

RFK noted that the Jews had already built a thriving community with its own institutions, language, and national characteristics — and were determined to reclaim their ancient homeland “as of right and not on sufferance.”

A young Bobby Kennedy saw the truth clearly: a people returning home, rebuilding their land with their own hands, and refusing to live as guests in their own country.

🇺🇸 NYC, May 31, 2026: A 23 year old Jewish woman sent CAM footage of her assault on a subway train.

Around 2:15 PM, a woman told her she could “smell the babies” she had eaten and yelled that “Jews eat babies” before choking her, throwing her to the ground, and beating her.

What an incredible display of unity, love, and resilience as tens of thousands of New Yorkers turned out for the Israel Day Parade in NYC!

Today, we boycotted antisemitism and sent a powerful message: New York will always stand with its Jewish community, and New Yorkers will always stand with Israel.

For over two years, the UN laundered Hamas propaganda, manufactured fake aid statistics, and called it "authoritative data."

Today, the curtain comes down.

The systematic information manipulation machine operating under the UN is now exposed. See the evidence for yourself: 👇

Visited the Rebbe’s Ohel last night to pray for my family, for the people of New York City, and for a safe, joyful, and successful parade today.

See you there!

“I believe in Israel, in the existence of Israel, and I believe Israel has to go forward into the future, for the rest of eternity,"

This statement makes me adore Helen Mirren. And despise every Jewish public figure who lacks the decency to say the same.

[Ari Fleischer @AriFleischer]

Mamdani said he will break with decades long precedence in NYC and not march in the annual Israel parade due to his “views about the Israeli government.”

What BS.

He won’t march, not because the Netanyahu government exists, but because Israel exists.

He opposes the existence of Israel. It’s that simple.

The UN just "blacklisted" Israel for sexual violence. So I read the report.

Not only does it fail spectacularly at proving systematic sexual violence against Palestinians, it actually makes a far more compelling case for the UN's own systematic dishonesty and incompetence 🧵

[Eric Adams @ericadamsfornyc]

This Sunday, Fifth Avenue will once again become a sea of blue and white as proud New Yorkers come together to celebrate the unbreakable bond between New York and Israel.

As mayor, I proudly marched in this parade every year I was in office, and this year will be no different. Join me Sunday as we stand against antisemitism and stand with NYC’s Jewish community.
