Yair Golan, leader of Israel’s opposition Democratic Party:
A hard morning for Israel. Israelis are waking up to a deal made over Israel's head.
Trump is signing a deal worth billions to the ayatollah regime, leaving the nuclear infrastructure in place, giving a lifeline to the murderous regime in Tehran.
Netanyahu is the man who sold 'Mr. Security' to the public for years — and in practice became the greatest strategic failure in Israel's history.
The man who adopted the 'Hamas is an asset' concept, drained Qatar's money, dismantled the alliance, severed Israel's alliances, and left it truly isolated.
Netanyahu — good for Hamas. Netanyahu — good for Iran. Netanyahu — good for Hezbollah. Netanyahu — not good for Israel.
Whoever promised 'decisive victory' ends his term as Israel's enemies grow stronger — and the threat of their fighters' blood being played before our eyes grows.
His replacement is not just a political need — it is a daily security need.

To the Heads of State and leaders of the G7 Countries:
The United States of America, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the European Union
In preparation for your upcoming summit meeting in Évian-les-Bains, France on June 15-17, 2026: Mr. President, Prime Ministers, Chancellors, distinguished leaders,
I come before you not as a government official, but as an Israeli peace activist and negotiator, someone who has spent nearly fifty years working with Israelis and Palestinians, speaking with political leaders, peace activists, ordinary citizens, and, at times, even with those whom governments refuse to speak to.
I am here to tell you something that many people no longer believe:
Peace between Israelis and Palestinians is still possible.
But it will not happen on its own.
For decades, the international community has supported a two-state solution in words while allowing realities on the ground to move steadily further away from it. Today we are at the edge of a cliff. The decisions made in the next year may determine whether two states remain possible or whether Israelis and Palestinians are condemned to permanent conflict.
The Gaza war has taught us a painful lesson. There is no military solution. Israel cannot bomb its way to security. Palestinians cannot fight their way to freedom. The alternative to a political solution is not victory for one side. The alternative is endless war.
The G7 countries possess enormous political, economic and diplomatic leverage. It is time to use it.
I also want to speak plainly about the role of the United States and of President Trump. The reality is that no international leader today possesses more influence over Israeli decision-making than President Trump. He has demonstrated repeatedly that when he chooses to make an issue a priority, Israeli leaders listen. He also has significant influence with key Arab partners whose participation will be essential to any lasting peace.
If that influence is used not only to stop wars but to build peace, it could become one of the most important diplomatic achievements of our time. The G7 should work in partnership with the United States, helping to create a unified international framework that combines American leadership, European commitment, regional participation, and international guarantees. Only such a coalition has the weight necessary to move the parties beyond the failures of the past.
I ask you to support five concrete steps.
First, make it clear that the goal of international policy is the creation of a sovereign Palestinian state living in peace and security beside Israel.
Not as a distant aspiration. Not as a slogan. As a real political objective with a timetable.
Second, support the rebuilding of Gaza under a legitimate Palestinian governing authority that rejects armed militias and is capable of delivering security, services, accountability and hope. The people of Gaza deserve a future beyond war. At the same time, Gaza cannot be rebuilt while armed organizations continue to operate outside the authority of the state. There must be one legitimate governing authority, one security structure, and one monopoly on the use of force. Disarmament must be part of the political process, implemented in a way that provides confidence to both sides and is linked to the broader framework of peace, reconstruction, security, and statehood.
Third, insist on security arrangements that guarantee that Gaza and the West Bank will never again be used as launching grounds for attacks against Israel.
Israelis must know that peace means security. Palestinians must know that security will not be used as a permanent justification for occupation. Both peoples deserve safety, dignity, and freedom.
Fourth, support democratic renewal.
Neither Israelis nor Palestinians should be denied the opportunity to elect leaders capable of making peace.
Too often, leaders have become prisoners of political survival rather than servants of their people’s future. If current leaders cannot deliver a political future, then new leaders must emerge through democratic means.
Fifth, create an international implementation mechanism with real authority, resources, and accountability.
We do not need another declaration. We need a process that survives changes of governments and political crises. The conflict has become internationalized. The solution must be internationally guaranteed.
Ladies and gentlemen,
The people I meet on both sides are exhausted. Israeli parents want their children to live without fear. Palestinian parents want their children to live with dignity and freedom.
These are not contradictory aspirations. They are complementary aspirations.
The future I believe in is simple:
Israel as the democratic nation-state of the Jewish people with full equality for all of its citizens.
Palestine as the democratic nation-state of the Palestinian people with full equality for all of its citizens.
Mutual recognition of the historic connection of the Jewish people to the Land of Israel and of the Palestinian people to the Land of Palestine.
Open borders for cooperation. Strong borders for security. Regional integration. Economic partnership. And an end to the belief that one people can achieve its national aspirations by denying the aspirations of the other.
History will not judge us by the speeches we give. History will judge us by whether we had the courage to act when action was still possible.
The choice before us is clear:
Two states, mutual recognition, security, and peace.
Or perpetual war.
I ask you to help make the right choice.
The window for a two-state solution is not closed, but it is closing. Future generations of Israelis and Palestinians will ask whether we acted while there was still time. Let our answer be yes.
Thank you,
Dr. Gershon Baskin
Instead of discussing how Elon Musk is now the world's first trillionaire, we should talk about how he killed hundreds of thousands of people through his dismantling of food and medical aid to poor countries

Today, President Trump announced that he intends to seize and occupy foreign territory. That means American boots on the ground—American lives at risk—in a war the American people strongly oppose.
Yesterday, Trump declared that he ‘loves inflation,’ clearly he loves war just as much—so much for lower prices and no new wars. Trump promised this war would be quick and painless—that was more than 100 days ago. Since then, the American people have been paying the price for Trump’s directionless war of choice—gas is up 40%, inflation just hit a three-year high, and life gets more expensive every week.
We should be ending this war, not expanding it. There is no objective, no exit strategy, and no end in sight. The moment we put American boots on the ground, we are sinking into a quagmire of Trump’s own making. Trump and Republicans are putting the lives of servicemembers at risk for no good reason, setting billions in taxpayer dollars on fire, and making life more painful and expensive for families here at home. Enough. No boots on the ground. This Republican majority must join Democrats in voting to put an end to this war.
😱😱😱 And just like that, it’s completely VANISHED from the media.
A sitting congressman, Ted Lieu, said on the record the Epstein files are being blocked because they show Trump raped and threatened to kill children.
