The Islamic regime has executed all of these innocent people in recent weeks.

No protests.
No outrage.
No headlines.

Only silence.

New laws in Afghanistan, introduced by the Taliban, mean that men can now marry girls at any age – there is no limit. Male relatives can arrange this with other men, and it’s only once the girls reach puberty that, in extremely limited circumstances, they can ask a court to dissolve the marriage. What’s happening in that country is horrific, and it begs the question why Amnesty are not putting all of their resources into tackling this latest child abuse atrocity.

An open letter to @TheLancet from an Iranian-Jewish cardiologist.
Today, one of the world's most prestigious medical journals published a campaign to suspend the Israeli Medical Association from the World Medical Association — the body founded after WWII to ensure physicians would never again be weaponized by political ideology.
I'm a cardiologist. I'm an Iranian Jew who grew up under a regime where medicine was subjugated to the state.
What The Lancet just did is a disgrace to my profession.
Here's what they published — and what they deliberately left out.

Imagine if, during Black History Month, the British Museum advertised an event about ancient black civilisations in Africa, and it had to be postponed because racists planned to disrupt the event.

That’s what just happened, but to Jews. https://t.co/ucpFTfAGBZ

This is not a single episode. It's a pattern with a purpose.

The verbal, videotaped assault on Helen Mirren — a highly recognizable public figure — is part of a calculated censorship playbook: scare non-Jews into silence about Israel. Make the cost of speaking out high enough that most people decide it's not worth it.

We have seen this before. Before the Third Reich passed its first major anti-Jewish legislation in 1935, Nazi goons spent more than a decade harassing, assaulting, and humiliating Jews in public. The "good ordinary Germans" said nothing. That silence allowed a fringe hatred to grow into sanctioned state policy. Those few Germans who did speak out got muscled by the Brown Shirts into silence. It worked. And when the machinery of government turned toward isolation, disenfranchisement, ghettoization, and ultimately deportation to concentration camps, the Jews had no one standing with them.

I am not saying that is where the world is heading for Jews in Western countries today. What I am saying is that we are living through something that rhymes uncomfortably with the late 1920s and early 1930s — a moment when non-Jews who spoke up for Jews were themselves targeted into silence.

Yesterday, @trishaposner shared a clip of CNBC's @JoeSquawk, who said plainly that in 2026 antisemites hide behind the label of anti-Zionist. The tsunami of hate that flooded his mentions proved his point in real time.

Now, in London, the same cudgel is swung at Helen Mirren. The attack is filmed deliberately so it can be shared and go viral. The goal isn't just one woman — it's intimidation at scale. It's silence by example.

The Nazis, too, were once dismissed as a bunch of street thugs who'd eventually burn themselves out.

Don't fool yourself by dismissing the daily accumulation of anti-Jewish fervor as mere street noise. That's exactly what they said about the Brown Shirts.

Hello @AOC, while you smiled in a hijab at a New York event, I was in Federal Court facing the 4th hitman hired by the Islamic Republic to assassinate me, for campaigning for Iranian women to have the same freedom you performed for a photo op. Will you come to court with me in August when I face the 5th hitman? Or does solidarity only work when it doesn't offend the Islamic regime?

You wore hijab voluntarily in New York. Women are killed in Iran for taking it off.

You are the very woman who, at every opportunity, protests against violence against women, decries gender segregation, and champions "inclusion." Yet here you stand, smiling and wearing a hijab, at an event in New York, in the heart of the West, where men and women are strictly separated. To me and millions of Iranian women, this does not look like a choice. It is no longer "My body, my choice," but rather "My body for votes."

They who claim to fight for women's self-determination in the name of feminism voluntarily embrace an ideology that mandates our women cover their hair simply because they are women. They enjoy the prosperity, freedom, and privileges of the Western world, where they may live as autonomous individuals , yet they simultaneously accept that other women should not be afforded the same rights.

Antisemitism has never truly changed. Only its costume has.

What makes today's Islamist antisemitism so uniquely dangerous is its ability to disguise itself as a social justice movement - wrapping the world's oldest hatred in the language of liberation and human rights until it looks not just acceptable, but righteous.

This is how hatred evades accountability. The Holocaust didn't begin with people who called themselves evil. It began with people who believed they were right.

Acclaimed Hungarian Jewish director László Nemes just dropped a truth bomb at Cannes: “There’s an orgy of antisemitism, an absolute, shameless orgy of antisemitism, overtaking the West.”

His 2015 masterpiece Son of Saul — a harrowing film about a Sonderkommando at Auschwitz — won the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film and the Cannes Grand Prix.

Today? He says it “wouldn’t even make the Oscar shortlist.” Because “of the politicization of cinemas, because anything that’s Jewish is now considered . . .nobody would touch it with a 10-foot pole.”

This is where we are. Jews are being erased from the stories of their own genocide while Hollywood and the cultural elite cheer. The entertainment industry’s antisemitic purge is real — and it’s accelerating.
We must call it out. Every single time. Thanks László Nemes for doing so at the risk of your own career.

[Moshe Emilio Lavi @MosheELavi]

Much has been written about @NickKristof's latest NYT opinion column over the past 24 hours, most of it focusing on the specific claims and their sourcing, but what I think deserves most attention is something broader: how this kind of journalism, whatever its intentions, ultimately makes accountability harder to achieve rather than easier, and harms the very people it claims to champion.

The principle that Israeli abuses should be investigated and condemned is not in dispute, and nobody serious is arguing otherwise. Israel is not above scrutiny, and in fact it operates under more intense international scrutiny than almost any country on earth, routinely held to standards applied nowhere else.

The problem here is something different entirely: the complete collapse of evidentiary standards the moment Israel is the subject.

This piece reads less like rigorous reporting and more like a catalogue of hearsay, unverifiable allegations, and activist claims stitched together into a sweeping moral indictment. Its sourcing leans heavily on Euro Med Human Rights Monitor, an organisation repeatedly criticised over extremist ties, disinformation, and deeply questionable methodology, yet treated throughout as a credible authority while its leadership openly engages in pro Hamas propaganda on X.

Worse, the same ecosystem of activists and self appointed “experts” that amplifies Euro Med’s claims online increasingly feeds narratives into more established organisations and media outlets, laundering deeply contested allegations into the appearance of institutional credibility.

The most severe claims are anonymous, uncorroborated, and presented in the emotional register of established fact rather than allegation, despite lacking meaningful evidentiary backing. Yet Kristof largely adopts them without serious scrutiny, publishing the piece in the Opinion section because even the already diminished evidentiary standards often applied to reporting on the Israeli Palestinian conflict would likely not suffice for it to pass as straight news reporting.

This approach doesn't strengthen accountability, it actively destroys it. When every allegation is immediately inflated into systematic rape and "standard operating procedure" before any serious verification, genuine investigation becomes harder rather than easier.

Real abuses, if they occurred, get buried beneath maximalist narratives so extreme that large portions of the public simply stop trusting any of it, and the people who actually suffered pay that price.

It also alienates the vast majority of Israelis and Jews worldwide, including the many who are perfectly capable of criticising Israeli policy and supporting investigations into misconduct, but who understandably recoil when accusations begin resembling modernised blood libels dressed up as human rights reporting. The framing matters enormously, and so does proportionality, and so does evidence.

Nor does any of this serve Palestinians. Atrocity inflation entrenches both sides deeper into defensive tribalism, and every dubious claim amplified by a prestigious outlet makes legitimate criticism easier to dismiss when it actually matters.

The timing compounds everything. On a day when documented reporting on Hamas sexual violence was again circulating, the NYT chose to run an opinion column built substantially on unverifiable anonymous testimony asserting that Israelis are conducting systemic rape campaigns, not as a rigorously evidenced investigative report but as an opinion piece with the imprimatur of the paper of record.

Kristof is not a naive bystander in any of this. In 2014 he used the full credibility of the NYT to repeatedly platform Somaly Mam, a Cambodian anti-trafficking activist whose harrowing personal story he championed across multiple columns, until it emerged that her backstory was substantially fabricated and he was forced to issue a public correction. When challenged this time around on his sourcing, corroboration, and methodology, he defaulted to bad faith engagement on social media rather than addressing the underlying concerns seriously.

It is the same pattern, playing out again in a different context. Real journalism requires skepticism, corroboration, and restraint applied consistently regardless of the subject, and when those standards disappear the moment Israel is involved, what remains is not human rights reporting but narrative activism wearing a journalist's costume that does far more harm than good to everyone it claims to serve.

[Eyal Yakoby @EYakoby]

Two weeks ago, Gazan women testified to a system of rape by Hamas to Palestinian women living in tents.

Last week, Gazan children testified to being raped by Hamas clerics.

This week, a report revealed the extent of sexual violence on Oct. 7th.

The NYT hasn’t written a word.

Everyone who works for the New York Times should at least be honest with themselves about what their paper did today: Participate in a perverted campaign to help Jew haters validate a fictional talking point to counter very real testimonials about Hamas's crimes against humanity.

[Andrew Fox @Mr_Andrew_Fox]

If you want to know why all the deeply silly “dog rape” stories were published this week, it’s because the paid pro-Palestinian influencer squad were ordered to get ahead of this, genuine horror story.
