Saudi Arabia’s leadership is not counting on an improvement in the country’s relations with Iran, and estimates that Tehran will violate the agreement between them at the first opportunity, senior officials in Riyadh told Israel Hayom.

According to the officials, the view that the tightening of relations between Saudi Arabia and Iran has put a stopper on the possibility of future progress towards normalization with Israel, is not true.

Washington Needs an Endgame in Ukraine

By Samuel CharapFOREIGN AFFAIRS

Fifteen months of fighting in Ukraine have made clear that neither Moscow nor Kyiv has the capacity to achieve a decisive military victory over the other, Samuel Charap writes in a new essay. Moreover, two key aspects of the war are likely to remain fixed for many years to come: the persistent threat that both sides pose to each other and the unsettled dispute over the areas of Ukraine that Russia has claimed to annex. This means that the war in Ukraine could continue indefinitely, devolving into a devastating years-long conflict that could cost thousands more lives without producing a decisive outcome.

Two stories have come out that placed the left’s anti-government riots in a new light.

By Caroline Glick,   June 2. 2023

This week, two stories came out that placed the left’s anti-government riots in a new light.

First, in a podcast with Haaretz reporter Amir Oren, Gilead Sher—one of the leaders of the “Resistance” against the Netanyahu government—explained that he and his colleagues put together the organizational and financial structure for the mass rioting that Israel has experienced since January, before Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his colleagues formed the government. In other words, the riots, protests, acts of political violence and intimidation that have swamped Israel since January were not spontaneous responses to the government’s legal reform proposals. They were planned and financed weeks before Justice Minister Yariv Levin was appointed to his position and well before the government took any position on anything.

The speech is riveting. The ZOA’s Morton Klein called Jacobs’ address “extraordinary and compelling.”

Betrayal is composed of 22 essays — some by distinguished authors and activists including Alan Dershowitz, Mort Klein, Caroline Glick, Richard Landes, Jonathan Tobin, and Thane Rosenbaum — and others by unsung Jewish activists who describe how their local Jewish leaders ignore or explain anti-Semitism away when it comes from “inconvenient sources.”

This may be the first book about the failure of the Jewish establishment to respond effectively to the rapid rise in anti-Semitism in America.

The Jewish establishment left us practically defenseless in the face of this new mutant strain, and that is why – I know it’s a serious charge – we are in this awful situation.

T. Belman.  This article by my friend Steve received considerable attention on ISRAEL SEEN.  I thought I would share it with you.

By Steve Kramer, ISRAEL SEEN

If you ever wondered how the US would react should another Nazi Germany threaten the democratic world, stop wondering. You’re seeing it right now in the Middle East… Let’s jump back to 1932, when the US was in isolationist mode and in Germany, the National Socialist German Workers’ Party (the Nazi Party) won a 33% plurality in the November 1932 elections. The charismatic leader of the party, Adolph Hitler, shrewdly maneuvered the president of the German republic, the iconic General Paul von Hindenburg, to name Hitler chancellor on January 30, 1933. From then on, Hitler built Europe’s largest army supplied with the appropriate armaments, a modern air force, concentration camps for political and “anti-social” criminals, and Jew-hating indoctrination to inflame the Germans against less than 1% of the population – the Jews. According to Hitler, it was the Jews who had sold Germany out during the Great War (later, WW1) and caused Germany’s rapid decline into a beggar state.

In 2019, President Trump signed an executive order on combating antisemitism. The order used the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance definition of antisemitism which includes “denying the Jewish people their right to self-determination”, “using the symbols and images associated with classic antisemitism to characterize Israel” and applying double standards to the Jewish State.

Biden’s hyped U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism, released on the eve of the Shavuot holiday, backtracks from this gold standard by claiming that, “there are several definitions of antisemitism, which serve as valuable tools to raise awareness and increase understanding of antisemitism”, including the IHRA, but noting that the Biden administration “welcomes and appreciates the Nexus Document and notes other such efforts.”

An experimental treatment developed at Israel’s Hadassah-University Medical Center has a 90% success rate at bringing patients with multiple myeloma into remission.

By JUDY SIEGEL-ITZKOVICH, JPOST)

Hadassah-University Medical Center in Jerusalem’s Ein Kerem has announced an “unprecedented achievement” in the treatment of multiple myeloma cancer – the second-most common hematological disease. It accounts for one-tenth of all blood cancers and 1% of all types of malignancies.

The innovative treatment against the disease, which has long been considered incurable, was developed after a series of experiments carried out in the hospital’s bone-marrow transplant and immunotherapy department in recent years.

“We have a waiting list of over 200 patients from Israel and various parts of the world at any given time.”

Equity is one of those quirky words that has numerous meanings, including “the value of an asset” and “justice according to natural law or right.”  The first defines equity as the value of financial assets a person might possess.  The second establishes equity as a quality of fairness divined by nature or our Creator.  If we look at the word closely, we discover that these meanings converge in the collective mind of liberals.

Dr. Dennis Prager on Fire!! …unloading the ugly truth.

Dennis Prager spells out the true, albeit, sometimes ugly truth of the world we live in. Hear him assess Canadian PM Justin Trudeau – “…he’s a punk he’s a thug…” Hear how he called out the social media giants (by name), media and medical establishment whose censorship decisions have killed hundreds of thousands.

As June arrives, the question this year is not which companies will give their logos a rainbow refresh to commemorate LGBT Pride Month, but how much they’ll try to outdo each other in the process. The inevitability of corporate virtue signaling in June has become a joke even in LGBT circles, viewed more as hollow pandering than genuine celebration.

Yet it is neither in Poland nor in Hungary where Jews are beaten up regularly and killed.<

It is not Poland and not Hungary where the media is unabashedly anti Israel and pro-Jihadi,where universities have been converted into social justice movements for a people, the Palestinians, who don’t even exist, but in the land of the ADL and the Obama-appointed leader of the ADL.<

It is not in Poland or Hungary where public displays of antisemitism and BDS to economically crush the Jewish state and its people are regularly displayed. In fact in both countries it is illegal to do so.

It was common in the Middle Ages for Jews to get the blame for the spreading of disease. In the 14th century, Jews were accused of poisoning wells, infecting the water with something terrible that was then transferred to the whole community.

There was of course never one shred of evidence of this. The Black Death had nothing to do with the Jews—it was a bacterial infection transferred through many sources—but they caught the blame anyway. Indeed, that’s where we get the phrase “poisoning the well.” It has anti-Semitic connotations in history.
