Fakten: Die Märkte in Gaza sind voll mit Waren aller Art: von medizinischer Ausrüstung über Marken-Kleidung, iPhones bis hin zu Shawarma, Eiscreme und Pita. Unzählige Videos auf Sozialen Medien zeigen das.

Täglich liefern über 600 LKW allein 150.000 Tonnen Mehl. Das reicht für mehr als vier Brote pro Kopf. Israel ermöglicht die Versorgung aller Bewohner Gazas jeden Tag – auch während des Krieges. Es gibt keinerlei Beschränkungen für Lebensmittellieferungen. Alles andere ist Hamas-Propaganda.

Jeder kann sich davon auf https://t.co/udClpkuPCV selbst ein Bild machen. Jede Lieferung wird dort dokumentiert.

Beispiellos, Herr @bundeskanzler? Wirklich?

Ist der tweet nicht beispielsweise missraten?

Kritik, Ja. Aber Siedlergewalt schlimmer als Gewalt im Sudan, als von Seiten der Russen in der Ukraine oder von Seiten des Iran gegen eigene Bevölkerung und Nachbarn?

Sexualisierte Gewalt als Strategie, um Schmerzen und Leid zu maximieren.

Ein umfassender Bericht zu den Taten der Hamas am 7. Oktober und während der Geiselhaft zeigt: Vergewaltigungen und erzwungene sexuelle Handlungen waren keine Einzelfälle, sondern Teil der Terrorstrategie.

Die Hamas hat am 7. Oktober nicht nur gemordet und verschleppt. Sie hat Menschen gezielt erniedrigt, gefoltert und entmenschlicht.

Ein Überlebender berichtet:

„Ich hörte eine Vergewaltigung, bei der sie herumgereicht wurde. Sie war vermutlich verletzt, ihren Schreien nach zu urteilen – Schreie, wie man sie nirgendwo sonst je gehört hat.“

Ich halte es für eine Diskreditierung der Pressefreiheit, wie mein Kollege @fpiatov und ich aus der Mitte des Parlaments diffamiert werden. Wenn das ein AfD-Abgeordneter so schreiben würde, gäbe es (völlig zurecht) massive Kritik. Es ist absurd, zu glauben, wir würden in irgend einem Auftrag handeln, weil wir recherchieren, was hinter den Kulissen passiert und mit dutzenden Quellen sprechen. Schade, dass die Grünen-Politiker, die sonst immer viel über Umgangsformen hier twittern, zu den kruden Ausführungen von Herrn Dahmen nichts zu sagen haben.

My Demand for Arab League Members on Israeli Independence Day 🇮🇱

I, the Kuwaiti 🇰🇼, Jasem Aljuraid, address a bold demand directly to the members of the Arab League on the day of Israeli Independence.

I say it fearlessly and without hesitation: Enough with the inherited hatred and historical lies!

I demand the establishment of a living and open Jewish Quarter in every Arab League member state, especially the Gulf countries and all Arabic-speaking nations. I demand the full right of return for Jewish communities to the regions where they lived for centuries among us, with complete recognition of their memories and history. I demand the fair and transparent opening of the compensation file for the properties and livelihoods that were confiscated from the Jewish families who once lived among us.

This is not weakness or mere normalization — it is a sincere demand for historical justice. This is a decisive rejection of the ideological hatred we inherited from our fathers and grandfathers, and a true resetting of accumulated historical problems to zero.

On this Independence Day, let us turn remembrance into a genuine historic opportunity: Let us open a new covenant built on truth, reconciliation, and peaceful coexistence, instead of continuing the cycle of hatred and ruin.

The ball is now in the court of the Arab League and its members. Do you dare to take a bold step toward justice?

Die Hertie School, die sich gern mit Führung und intellektuellem Pluralismus schmückt, liefert inzwischen vor allem eines: eine Lehrstunde im Gegenteil.

*Die Hertie School of Appeasement.*

„Führung“ bedeutet hier offenbar, schwierigen Positionen aus dem Weg zu gehen.

„Pluralismus“ endet dort, wo Widerspruch beginnt.

Was Michael Roth beschreibt, ist kein Einzelfall, sondern ein wiederkehrendes Muster:
BDS-Nähe in studentischen Gremien, wachsender Druck auf jüdische und israelfreundliche Stimmen – und nun die Ausladung eines Politikers, weil seine Haltung etwas differenzierter ist als die ständig dämonisierende und delegitimierende Meinung über Israel.

Gewalt als Ausrede zu nutzen, um jemanden auszuladen, ist keine Führung – es ist rückgratlos.
Diskussionen abzusagen, weil Gewalt angedroht wird, ist kein Akt der Verantwortung, es ist Kapitulation.

Sprecher auszuladen, ist keine pluralistische Debatte – es ist moralischer Führungsbankrott.

Wer keine Debatte zulässt, zeigt kein Rückgrat, sondern Feigheit.
Eine Institution, die so handelt, bildet keine Führungskräfte aus – sondern Konformität.

I genuinely don’t know whether to laugh or lose my mind anymore at this European hypocritical double standards.

When it comes to Vladimir Putin, suddenly it’s Churchillian resolve. No compromise. No dialogue. Arm Ukraine to the teeth, sanction everything that moves, wreck your own energy security if necessary - because tyranny must be confronted.

Fine. I actually respect the consistency of that … in isolation.

But then you turn around and lecture us - us - the Gulf monarchies, Jordan and Israel, about showing restraint with Tehran? About dialogue? About coexistence?

Are you serious?

For forty years - forty bloody years - this regime has been waging a shadow war across the region. Militias, proxies, sleeper cells, terror networks, destabilizing entire countries - Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Yemen - and threatening the Gulf monarchies, Jordan, and Israel nonstop.

This isn’t theoretical. This isn’t abstract. This is lived reality.

And yet here come Emmanuel Macron, Keir Starmer, and the rest of the European choir, gently advising us to calm down, de-escalate, and - what was it again? - “give diplomacy a chance.”

Diplomacy with who, exactly? With a system that has built its entire regional strategy on plausible deniability and proxy terror violence?

You were willing to absorb inflation, energy shocks, and political backlash at home to confront Moscow. You made that choice. You said: this is the price of standing up to a tyrant.

So don’t come here and tell us - after decades of being on the receiving end - that we should just sit down, smile politely, and “coexist.”

Either you believe in confronting tyranny everywhere .. or you don’t.

Macron, Starmer, rest of EU leaders and top bureaucrats should just STFU and spare us the self righteous sanctimonious lectures!🤐🤫

[Ahmed Al-Khalidi @khalidi79397]

I envy the Israeli left.

Not their politics. Their freedom.

They march through Tel Aviv calling their own country an apartheid state. They go on CNN and call the IDF war criminals. They write op-eds in Haaretz comparing Israel to the worst regimes in history. They join NGOs funded by hostile governments to produce reports designed to delegitimize the Jewish state.

And then they go home. Sleep in their beds. Send their kids to school the next morning. No one threatens their family. No one disappears them in the night. No one drags them from their home.

Zero consequences.

Now imagine, just imagine, if Iranians had 1% of that freedom. If an Egyptian columnist could criticize Sisi the way Gideon Levy criticizes Netanyahu. If a Palestinian in Ramallah could call Abbas corrupt on live TV and walk home safely. If someone in Gaza could have held a sign saying "Hamas does not speak for me" without being executed.

The Middle East would be unrecognizable.

The great irony is that the people who enjoy more political freedom than virtually anyone else in the region use that freedom to paint Israel as a tyranny while the actual tyrannies they're silent about would imprison or kill them for doing the same.

You're not brave. You're spoiled. You mistake comfort for conscience. You scream "genocide" into a microphone the state itself protects, then sleep soundly in a democracy you spend your days trying to destroy, while millions across this region would trade everything they have for five minutes of the freedom you use to spit on your own country.

Der Antisemitismus von heute trägt viele Masken: Rechter Hass, muslimische Radikalisierung und Aufhetzung, linke Ausgrenzung. Doch die Wurzel ist immer dieselbe. Wer früher bei den Nazis „kauft nicht bei Juden“ rief, sagt heute: „kauft nicht von Israel!“

In Kunst, Kultur und Wissenschaft müssen Juden in Deutschland ihre Identität an der Garderobe lassen, um überhaupt noch mitzumachen – auf Druck von links. Wer unsere Demokratie ernst nimmt, muss die IHRA-Definition von Antisemitismus gesetzlich verankern und Gedenkstättenbesuche für alle Schüler — auch und gerade jene mit muslimischem Hintergrund — verpflichtend machen.

Jetzt ist moralische Klarheit gefragt. Mehr dazu in meinem Interview mit dem RND. https://t.co/I7SSLhgqzL

Trump made a profoundly important statement today that deserves everyone's attention. He called Israel the little brother of the United States. “We’re like an older and younger brother,” he said in an interview with Axios.

In a recent piece for The Free Press, I described Israel as “America’s little sister.” Many people, Americans and foreigners alike, still don’t grasp this. Some point to developments such as the rise of Tucker Carlson’s antisemitism and the campus Tentifadas as evidence that the relationship is beginning to unravel.

I disagree. This is a family tie, the strongest one the United States has.

I’m a staunch supporter of Israel. But I am also a foreign policy analyst. My aim is accuracy, not emotional reassurance. I do not use the “little sister” line to pander to anyone’s feelings.

The most important reason that the progressive foreign policy of Barack Obama and Joe Biden has failed is not that it misread the Islamic Republic. That is the second most important reason. The first is that it misread America. It treated foreign policy as an instrument of domestic politics, a way to take a swipe at half the country. That was never going to hold.

I am trying to tell you how this ends. When the dust settles from the war that began on October 7, the United States and Israel will be closer than ever, while bitching at each other constantly.

🇺🇸 🇿🇦 A $400 million lawsuit is being prepared in the United States (US) against South African President Cyril Ramaphosa, and if it proceeds, the fallout could be explosive. At the centre of it are accusations that the South African government knowingly collaborated with Hamas ahead of the October 7 attacks on Israel – attacks in which at least 47 American citizens were killed or taken hostage.

The mainstream media in South Africa have not uttered a word about it.

The case, built on recommendations by UK-based consultant Justin Lewis, claims to have uncovered new material evidence of coordination between South African officials, Hamas, and Iran in the months leading up to the massacre. It’s a staggering allegation: that South Africa’s diplomatic support for Hamas wasn’t just rhetorical solidarity, but active complicity.

Lewis says he warned the South African government back in April of the potential legal risks. “I was not only ignored,” he says, “but threatened with legal action by a journalist acting on behalf of the South African state.”

Lewis now claims that some of South Africa’s court filings to the International Court of Justice (ICJ) were prepared in advance and in concert with foreign actors hostile to Israel and the West. “If that’s true,” he says, “then the ICJ process was politically manipulated – and that could constitute an act of terrorism under UK and US law.”

The legal foundation for the case rests on a unanimous US Supreme Court ruling last month that upheld the Promoting Security and Justice for Victims of Terrorism Act (2019), which allows Americans to sue foreign governments or individuals shown to have materially supported terrorist organisations – even overriding sovereign immunity.

Plaintiffs intend to argue that South African officials – possibly including Ramaphosa himself – either had prior knowledge of or directly facilitated Hamas operations. “Unless the president can prove he had no knowledge,” Lewis says, “he may be personally liable for damages.”

Beyond the courtroom, the economic risks are staggering. In letters dated June 30 and July 2, Lewis warned that sanctions on South African government debt could result in interest rate hikes costing taxpayers about $55 million per day. He highlights $3.5 billion in international bonds issued by South Africa in November 2023, which he claims failed to disclose “the substantial legal and reputational risks linked to collaboration with a designated terrorist entity.”

Formal notifications have been sent to the US Treasury, the House Financial Services Committee, and the Financial Action Task Force (FATF). Major financial institutions – including Goldman Sachs, Citigroup, and Vunani Capital – have also been briefed.

In a letter to US Assistant Trade Representative Constance Hamilton, Lewis urged the White House to suspend all economic negotiations with South Africa – including those linked to the African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA) – until the allegations are investigated. “Continuing bilateral economic dialogue under these conditions would be reckless,” he wrote.
