Israeli human rights organization Shurat HaDin on Monday issued a letter of notice to Princeton University over the inclusion of a textbook that alleges that the IDF was purposefully maiming and harvesting the organs of Palestinians.

In a letter addressed to university dean Prof. Gene A. Jarrett, Shurat HaDin reprimanded the institute after learning that a Humanities course taught there would include the book “The Right to Maim: Debility, Capacity, Disability.”

Partnership with Greece and Cyprus is a game changer, giving Israel vital strategic depth during a conflict.

Eli Cohen’s Visit to Greece as an Indication of Israel’s Priorities

The convincing win by Kyriakos Mitsotakis’ Nea Dimokratia (ND, New Democracy) center-right party in the second round of the Greek parliamentary elections on June 25 stabilizes the political scene in Athens. Since the Greek constitutional system significantly rewards the party with the most votes in a second round, ND now has an absolute majority of 158 out of 300 in parliament. In effect, it completes a cycle of elections in key Eastern Mediterranean nations, confirming experienced political figures in office:

U.S. National Security Council said no framework has been agreed upon, despite the Wall Street Journal reporting that the deal could happen within one year

By Amir Tibon AND Ben Samuels, HAARETZ

On Wednesday, the Wall Street journal reported that U.S. officials said Israel will make concessions to the Palestinians in order to facilitate the agreement. Those same officials estimated that a normalization deal between the two countries can be reached within nine to 12 months, though the report adds that Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is in no rush to reach a deal.

#Jordan is the alpha and the omega. Jordan is the key to the entire matrix that has been enslaving us, humans, on this planet. Therefore, #Jordan‘s kinglet had enjoyed absolute protection from the globalists, because his fall will lead to the fall of all of the cabal’s puppets in the entire Middle East region… Today, the cabal is unable to protect itself, hence, the kinglet is just the remnants of a filthy period that will soon be thrown into the cesspool of the past…..

T. Belman. At least fifty years ago I read Israelis and Jews. Israel’s Jews were asked whether they see themselves as Israelis or Jews. The division which existed then, exists today.

It is hard to imagine both gr0ups coming together on a common vision. Perhaps Israel should be divided into two areas, Tel Aviv and Jerusalem. Tel Aviv would include the coastal region and Jerusalem would be the rest. Tel Aviv would be a liberal democracy or what ever they decide and Jerusalem would be as Jewish as it wants. The government of Israel would levy taxes on both groups and will be responsible for defence and national infrastructure and whatever other duties both sides gave it.

Of course both sides would fight over the budget. Tel Aviv would be much richer and Jerusalem much needier.

As we stand in 2023, a clear, unified vision for Israel’s Jewish inhabitants has yet to emerge. Instead, the existing government has given rise to two sharply contrasting visions

We stand witness today to an escalating identity crisis in Israel, one that threatens to cascade into a full-fledged constitutional dilemma. This crisis transcends the realms of mere political turbulence or potential judicial transformations. It dives deep into the ideological heart of the nation, reflecting a divide between two considerable Jewish factions with divergent visions of what Israel should be.

Chances for a Saudi-Israeli deal are high, the risks manageable, and the value overwhelming. The doubters and naysayers, as well as those who actively are trying to sabotage such an agreement, are wrong.

By  David M. Weinberg, ISRAEL HAYOM 6.8.23

It is important to refute the many arguments being bandied about against a peace deal involving Saudi Arabia, Israel, and the United States.

I think that the doubters and naysayers, as well as those who actively are trying to sabotage such an agreement, are wrong. Wrong about the chances for a deal (I think they are high), wrong about the risks of a deal (much lower than feared), and wrong about the worth of a peace breakthrough (much higher than imagined).

The New York Times collaborated with the New York State government to produce its now-infamous series of stories targeting Orthodox Jewish schools, according to over 800 pages of emails obtained by Breitbart News.

The Times’ Eliza Shapiro — self-described “serious reporter who doesn’t pull punches” — is seen in the massive volume of communications, obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, discussing with the New York State Education Department how “we” can craft comment for the first story launching the Times’ series of articles targeting yeshivas, and giving the government almost a full business-week longer than the schools to comment. Emails also show she worked with the government to direct blame for the Times’ allegations, and coordinated timing on publishing with a vote to regulate the religious schools.

In his latest move to curtail funds earmarked for the Arab public, Finance Minister Betzalel Smotrich announced on Monday the freeze of a five-year, NIS 2.5 billion ($680 million) plan for the development of East Jerusalem, citing the program’s inclusion of funds for a preparatory program (mechina) for Arab students at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.

Attempting to criminalize Trump’s dispute of the election could stunt healthy political dissent

By Christopher Roach, AM GREATNESS

At the end of the classic independent film Reservoir Dogs, the characters end up in a Mexican standoff. The criminal gang’s ringleader, Joe, insists that Mr. Orange is working with the police, even though he is dying on the floor, having been shot during a failed jewelry store heist. Mr. White – the crooks use aliases – insists that Joe is wrong. Guns get drawn. Mr. White demands some proof for Joe’s claim about Mr. Orange. Joe angrily responds, “You don’t need proof when you have instinct!” You can watch the (admittedly brutal) scene here.

Peat bog carbon repositories also being dug up.

By JOHN LEAKE

In 2014, The Telegraph reported that Millions of trees chopped down to make way for Scottish wind farms. Every year since then, multiple journals have reported that the chopping down of Scotland’s treats and digging up of its (carbon holding) peat bogs has continued unabated. This year’s reporting estimate that the number is now up to 15.7 million trees have been felled to make way for gigantic, ugly, bird-killing, and inefficient wind turbines.

Beginning in the summer of 2020, when myriad states, legally and illegally, changed their voting rules in a way that removed all safeguards against fraud, it was clear that there might be problems in November.  Then, on election night, six major precincts — election outcome–changing precincts — stopped counting votes altogether.  When you add in all the other evidence adduced in subsequent weeks showing fraud (including Biden’s unbelievably soaring vote count long after the election ended), there was good reason to question the election.  Mike Pence has now conceded that he believes he could at least have opened the path to question election fraud.

U.S. pressure led Jerusalem to give up singling out Arabs with U.S. citizenship for special scrutiny. Does the debate about “ethnic profiling” ignore threats?

By JONATHAN S. TOBIN  (August 7, 2023 / JNS)

It sounds eminently fair. Add in the fact that it will give Israeli citizens something they’ve been trying to get for many years, and it seems like a win-win sort of deal between Washington and Jerusalem. But there’s no use pretending that Israel’s agreement to treat all U.S. passport holders in the same manner, rather than singling out those who are also Palestinian Arabs for special scrutiny, doesn’t also present genuine risks for the country’s security.
