Yaron and Sarah were our friends and colleagues. They were in the prime of their lives.
This evening, a terrorist shot and killed them as they exited an event at the Capital Jewish Museum in DC.
The entire embassy staff is heartbroken and devastated by their murder. No words can express the depth of our grief and horror at this devastating loss.
Our hearts are with their families, and the embassy will be by their side during this terrible time.
Elon Musk: At GM, there's a special elevator only for senior executives. We have no such thing at Tesla.
“I actually know the people on the line, because I worked on the line, I walked the line, I slept in the factory, and I worked beside them. So, I'm no stranger to them.
There are many people at Tesla who have gone from working on the line to being in senior management. There are no lords and peasants. Everyone eats at the same table. Everyone parks in the same parking lot.
At GM, there's a special elevator only for senior executives. We have no such thing at Tesla.
We give everyone stock options. Many people who are just working the line, who didn't even know what stocks were, we've made them millionaires.
And I just want to say that I'm incredibly appreciative of those who build the cars, and they know it.”

There is a false controversy surrounding the arrest and hopefully deportation of Mahmoud Khalil. I’m going to put it to bed. Khalil’s deportation has nothing to do with your free speech. Khalil is facing deportation because of his conduct, including, allegedly, organizing a violent takeover of US campuses with pro-terror elements, conspiring to commit civil rights violations and trespass, building takeovers — this is criminal activity that endangers public safety, and of course endorsing and espousing terrorist activity in contravention of the Immigration and Nationality Act.
WATCH NOW:
There are no words that can describe such an atrocity. Hamas not only murdered Ariel and Kfir Bibas in cold blood – a four-year-old boy and a ten-month-old baby – but continues to violate every basic moral value even after their death.
Instead of returning Shiri, the mother of Kfir and Ariel, Hamas returned an unidentified body, as if it were a worthless shipment. This is a new low, an evil and cruelty with no parallel.
The UN Secretary-General, the Security Council and the General Assembly cannot continue to remain silent in the face of Hamas's barbarity. The State of Israel demands a clear and unequivocal condemnation of this heinous crime, and a clear and an immediate demand for the return of Shiri to her family. History will remember well who stood by and remained silent while Hamas trampled on the most basic principles of humanity.
The images that we saw today don't lie. The terrorists and Gazan residents look perfectly fine. The hostages look like Holocaust survivors. They are the only ones that have been starved!
As a result of the severe physical condition of Or, Eli, and Ohad, who were released earlier today from Hamas captivity, I urgently appealed to the UN Secretary-General to condemn Hamas's cruel and inhumane treatment of the hostages and to demand the unconditional release of all those still held.
Their condition is clear evidence of Hamas’s war crimes and blatant violations of international law, as it has committed—and continues to commit—crimes against humanity.
It is not the residents of Gaza or Hamas members who are suffering from malnutrition, but our innocent hostages.
The @IDF has taken control of the peak of the Hermon without a fight. This provides a commanding 360 view of Syria and Lebanon, and prevents Hezbollah or Jihadis from being there.
At the funeral of Rabbi Zvi Kogan, Rabbi Levi Duchman—who directs Chabad-Lubavitch in the UAE—pledges “to establish and build Beis Tzvi—a center where people will come together reflecting your warmth.” Kogan, a Chabad-Lubavitch emissary to the United Arab Emirates, was kidnapped and murdered by terrorists.
“Our mission is not to hide, to cower, to duck,” Duchman said. “We stand tall. We hold the torch of Torah and mitzvot to show the world we are alive.”
My dear brother Zvi, you will always hold a special place in my heart. May God have mercy on your soul, and may your memory be a blessing. I will continue to carry the message of peace between Muslims and Jews relentlessly and pray for strength from God.
Radical Islamists will not win, I promise you. We will defeat them, total victory.
Goodbye, my dear brother. 🙏🏼💔
🚨 Following the @ICC issuing arrest warrants for the leaders of a democratic non-member state — this is what everyone needs to know about the sham that is the International Criminal Court: it’s not a court to prosecute criminals it’s more like a court run by international criminals

We cannot wait to welcome artist Mayta Cohen in November for #Shabbat & a concert. More information on her visit to Temple Israel at https://t.co/D1IlbSD96Y
@Partisangirl Great to see the proHamas crowd acknowledge that Jews lived in Israel for several generations before the 1948 Arab war to destroy the Jews began.
Perhaps keep going back in your history studies beyond 1878 and you will find we have lived there since our bblical kingdom.
During her interview on @PiersMorgan Candace Owen @RealCandaceO referred to what she termed "radical Judaism" and characterized the iconic Lubavitcher Rebbe Menachem Schneerson, as someone who "preached Jewish supremacism and hatred of all non-Jews." These words are a sickening and manifestly inaccurate description of a revered holy man who was respected and beloved by people of all faiths.
Rabbi Schneerson preached a message of unadulterated love, tolerance, respect, and universal justice for all of humanity. My father considered him a spiritual mentor and sought his advice on diverse issues of morality and ethics. He once visited the Rebbe at 2 o’clock in the morning! As Americans, we need to distance ourselves from the troubling rise in antisemitism. We need unity in our country, not divisiveness. That's what Rabbi Schneerson stood for.
