Brooklyn Pride interfaith service nixed over shul’s ‘public alignment with pro-Israel positions’
[IsraelTimes] Rabbi at Kane Street Synagogue says though official reason for cancellation was an inability to ‘garner sufficient involvement,’ one participating group cited congregation’s Israel politics

The Brooklyn 2025 Pride festivities will not include an interfaith service this year after at least one group allegedly pulled out due to the hosting synagogue’s "public alignment with pro-Israel political positions."

Kane Street Synagogue, a historic Conservative synagogue in Brooklyn, was set to host the 15th annual interfaith service on Wednesday before it was canceled last week.

Mickey Heller, a co-chair of Brooklyn Pride, said the cancellation followed low registration and after a number of participating organizations and choirs had "for whatever reason" said they were unable to attend this year.

In an email to Kane Street congregants on Friday, Rabbi Michelle Dardashti said that while the reason stated by organizers for the cancellation of the interfaith service was an inability to "garner sufficient involvement," an email sent by one participating musical group cited the synagogue’s Israel politics.

"The leader of one of the musical groups which pulled out shared that, indeed, they did so both because many in their community (largely comprised on LGBT people of color and also immigrants colonists) feel uncomfortable with police presence and also, that ’we were also made aware of Kane Street Synagogue’s public alignment with pro-Israel political positions,’" the email read.

Dardashti’s email did not name the group that she quoted. Kane Street’s leadership declined to comment further.

Of the groups that participated in the service last year, only one responded to inquiries from the Jewish Telegraphic Agency. Reverend Micah Ma of the First Unitarian Congregational Society of Brooklyn, whose choir sang at last year’s service, declined to comment.

The cancellation of Brooklyn Pride’s interfaith service comes as Pride celebrations commence throughout the nation — along with festivities over the Israeli-Paleostinian conflict. In recent years, as queer activism has grown increasingly aligned with anti-Zionism, some Jews in the LGBTQ community have faced exclusion from Pride celebrations.

At San Diego Pride this year, all participating Jewish groups pulled out of the festivities over the headlining performance by R&B singer Kehlani, whom they accused of antisemitism for her pro-Paleostinian stances.

New York City’s Dyke March has also faced scrutiny from Jewish participants who have felt alienated by the march’s anti-Zionist stances. Last year, the march’s annual event was titled "Dykes Against Genocide," which spurred a group of Jewish lesbians to host their own Pride party.

In an interview, Heller said the registration for this year’s Brooklyn Pride interfaith service had only two registrations a week before its scheduled date, while in past years it would have had "at least close to 100" at that point.

He said that he could not speak to individual groups’ issues with Kane Street, saying that it would be "unfair" to those organizations, and attributed the cancellation to a lack of interest.

"It’s very difficult to speculate as to why," Heller said. "I’ll only say that there’s a lot going on all over the country these days, and there are some very disturbing ripples going on, and sadly, at this time, when we really do need to all come together, people are getting afraid."

Past participants in the interfaith Pride service included several choirs as well as Jewish, Christian, Moslem and Zen Buddhist leaders. The list of participants for this year’s interfaith service was not available online after the cancellation.

Heller told JTA that he did not personally have information on the participants, and suggested that Brooklyn Pride could not comment on who the participants would have been due to confidentiality concerns.

In the email to her congregation, Dardashti wrote she was "crushed/offended" by the "discriminatory decision" to cancel the event.

"I was both grateful for the transparency (and that this person had ’replied all’ to the thread) and also crushed/offended by the many assumptions made and the discriminatory decision to cancel without taking time to reach out and inquire or discuss," she wrote.

Dardashti lamented the cancellation and articulated Kane Street’s ties to Israel in an email to the group of clergy and musicians who would have participated in the interfaith service, which she excerpted in her email to congregants.

"I’m saddened that this event has become an example of bridges burned rather than built," she wrote, adding, "I would be glad to share with you — with any of you — about our community; about the deep and complex relationships to Israel our members hold and our broad rejection of the current Israeli administration; about prayers we recite weekly for a cessation of the violence, return of the hostages and salvation for the civilians in Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
; and about the Jewish community more broadly."

Dardashti — who is the founder of a nonprofit aimed at improving discourse about Israel and antisemitism among Jews — told her congregants that she had also shared a recent New York Times

...which still proudly claims Walter Duranty's Pulitzer prize...

op-ed about how recent attacks have exacerbated the fear that Jews are feeling.

"I explained that Jews are not only being vilified for any association with Israel (as Kane Street was by them in this instance and as is, sadly, not new), but also violent mostly peacefully targeted as a result of that association, and that these extreme recent physical attacks are coming from the anti-Zionists," she wrote.

Heller said Brooklyn Pride hopes to resume the interfaith service next year. He also said he was sorry that this year’s celebration had been canceled so abruptly.

"As the chair of Brooklyn Pride, I want to apologize to all people who have been so supportive to our interfaith over the years. I do want to give words of encouragement to everybody, I don’t want to say especially our Jewish congregation members, but everybody, because we are in a time that is become, for certain reasons, fairly divisive
...politicians call things divisive when when the other side sez something they don't like. Their own statements are never divisive, they're principled...
," Heller said.

He continued, "And it’s in those times when we have to, no matter who we are, we have to allow our lights to shine and come together and support each other, because there’s a lot more we need to band together about than we need to bring us apart."

Britain
UK civil servants who penned letter warning of ‘complicity’ in Gaza war reportedly told to resign if they disagree with government policy
[IsraelTimes] More than 300 civil servants at Britain’s foreign ministry have written to Foreign Secretary David Lammy expressing concerns about Israel’s conduct in Gaza, the BBC reports.

The officials warned of potential UK “complicity” in what they called “Israel’s violations of international humanitarian law” during the war in the Palestinian territory, sparked by the Hamas-led October 7, 2023, assault on southern Israel.

The letter dated May 16 questioned the continuation of some UK arms sales to the country, according to the broadcaster.

“In July 2024, staff expressed concern about Israel’s violations of international humanitarian law and potential UK government complicity,” the staff wrote, according to excerpts cited by the BBC.

“In the intervening period, the reality of Israel’s disregard for international law has become more stark,” they added, citing the killing of humanitarian workers, restrictions on international aid and violence by Israeli settlers in the West Bank.

Israel denies having violated international law amid the fighting in Gaza.

The letter added that the UK government had contributed to “the erosion of global norms,” including through weapons exports, the broadcaster reports.

Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s Labour government suspended some 30 of 350 arms export licenses to Israel in September 2024, citing a “risk” they could be used in violations of international law.

London has also sanctioned settlers in the West Bank and suspended negotiations on a new free trade agreement with Israel.

But it continues to supply components for F-35 fighter jets to a global pool that Israel is able to access.

The BBC reports that the two most senior officials in the FCDO replied to the letter by saying the signatories could “resign” if they disagreed with government policy.

“This is an honourable course,” they told staff, the BBC reports, adding that the response shocked the civil servants.

The FCDO spokesperson says, “It is the job of civil servants to deliver on the policies of the government of the day.”

“There are systems in place which allow them to raise concerns if they have them,” they add.

Australian PM dismisses ‘predictable’ Israeli and US criticism of sanctions on Ben Gvir, Smotrich
[IsraelTimes] Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese
…an uncreatively typical Jew-hating, native Ozzie-hating labour socialist politician who looks to harm Israel in ways large and small whenever the chance arises. Ditto for his own people…
says condemnation by the US and Israel of sanctions imposed on two far-right Israeli cabinet ministers is “predictable,” and that the two men have impeded a two-state solution.

“The Israeli Government does need to uphold its obligations under international law and some of the expansionist rhetoric that we’ve seen as well is clearly in contradiction of that from these hard-line right wing members of the Netanyahu government,” Albanese says on Wednesday in an interview with ABC Radio Sydney.

Comments by the two men “have aided what is a serious impediment to a two-state solution,” he adds.

The sanctions freeze the assets and impose travel bans on National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir and Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, both West Bank settlers, Australia’s Foreign Minister Penny Wong says.

“We, along with those other countries and the broader international community, believe we can only see peace in the Middle East when we deal with two states and when both Israelis and Palestinians can live in peace and security,” she says in a television interview with Seven.

Israel’s ambassador to Australia, Amir Maimon, writes on X that the sanctions are “deeply concerning and entirely unacceptable.”

Europe
Wilders Praises Dutch Citizens for Impromptu Patrols at German Border
[Breitbart] Dutch citizens have begun organising themselves to perform checks along the German border, drawing praise from populist leader Geert Wilders and the ire of establishment politicians.

In the wake of the government collapsing in The Hague last week after coalition partners refused to agree to the strict border controls proposed by Geert Wilders and his Party for Freedom (PVV), a group of Dutch citizens have taken it upon themselves to enforce checks at the border between the Netherlands and Germany over the weekend.

According to the German paper of record Die Welt, Dutchmen clad in high-visibility vests blocked off highway 408 near a reception centre for alleged asylum seekers in Ter Apel, across the border from the German state of Lower Saxony. The impromptu citizen border force of around 12 men reportedly stopped cars and searched trunks for illegals trying to enter the country.

Acting Migration Minister David van Weel said that while “frustration is understandable” and that the “influx of asylum seekers must decrease,” he said that citizens must not take the law into their own hands. “Let the police and military police do their job. Obey the law,” he said.

Populist leader Geert Wilders criticised the People’s Party for Freedom and Democracy (VVD) politician, branding him a “weakling” who is doing “absolutely nothing” to deal with the illegal migration crisis. “If people are frustrated, it is because the VVD is completely failing them,” Wilders said.

The anti-mass migration politician went on to praise the “fantastic initiative” of the Dutch citizens who took it upon themselves to police the border, saying that it “should happen everywhere at the border”. Wilders said that if the government refuses to deploy the military to the border, then the people “will have to do it ourselves”, adding that he would personally “like to participate next time!”

Meanwhile, the neo-liberal VVD party, which previously led the Dutch government under former PM and now NATO Chief Mark Rutte, before it collapsed in 2023 over migration, said on Monday that it will no longer cooperate with Wilders’ party.

Rutte’s replacement, Turkish-born Dilan Yesilgöz said that her supposedly centre-right party will instead seek to partner with the GroenLinks–PvdA (GreenLeft–Labour) alliance led by EU Green New Deal architect Frans Timmermans in the upcoming snap election.

The election was triggered after Wilders announced that his Party for Freedom would leave the coalition government with the Farmer–Citizen Movement (BBB) party, the New Social Contract (NCC), and the VVD over failures to implement the strict migration controls his party ran on in the 2023 elections.

Wilders, who accepted a kingmaker role after the other parties refused to back him for prime minister, despite his party coming in first place in the last elections, accused the VVD and Yesilgöz of moving to “destroy the Netherlands together with the left.”

“That means many more asylum seekers and Islam. But the voter decides. So make the PVV the largest party so that no one can ignore us,” he said.

However, the decision by the VVD to side with Timmermans and the left may make it difficult for Wilders to return to government, with current polling putting him and his allies well short of the necessary 76 in the House of Representatives needed to form a government without the VVD.

Fifth Column
Grand Jury Returns Three-Count Indictment Charging Democrat Rep. LaMonica McIver with Forcibly Interfering with Federal Law Enforcement Officers – McIver Faces 17 YEARS IN PRISON
[Gateway] A federal grand jury returned a 3-count indictment charging Democrat Rep. LaMonica McIver with forcibly impeding and interfering with federal law enforcement officers at the Delaney Hall detention center in Newark last month.

McIver is facing a maximum of 17 years in prison for all three counts.

Last month a judge ordered McIver to surrender her firearms and said she cannot travel outside of the US.

Per US Attorney Alina Habba:

Today a federal grand jury seated in Newark, New Jersey returned a three-count indictment charging U.S. Representative LaMonica McIver with forcibly impeding and interfering with federal law enforcement officers. This indictment has a maximum penalty of 8 years for Count One, an additional maximum penalty of 8 years for Count Two, and a maximum penalty of 1 year in prison for Count Three.

As I have stated in the past, it is my Constitutional obligation as the Chief Federal Law Enforcement Officer for New Jersey to ensure that our federal partners are protected when executing their duties. While people are free to express their views for or against particular policies, they must not do so in a manner that endangers law enforcement and the communities those officers serve.

Today’s decision by the grand jury is the next step in a process that my Office will pursue to a just end.

Evidence will have been found to have been handled improperly or something like that. The charges will be quietly dropped by the US Attorney and that will be the end of it.

Clearing the decks for action: Active-Duty Navy JAG Outed on X As a Leftist Nut After Threats Against ICE Agents
[RedState] As the ICE riots raged in the city of Los Angeles, I wasn’t too far away physically. We live in an LA County suburb.

I also noted that an account called “LAScanner” was apparently calling for ICE agents to be doxed and harassed. The owner of that account was also asking his followers to inform on ICE agents and to tell him when and where ICE raids were taking place so more rioters could show up and harass. That account had a large following. It was an obvious attempt to harass and potentially harm federal officers. That didn’t sit well with others who have the technical ability to find that guy and “out” him. And he was outed. He’s in Texas, and now he’s deleted his account.

Another ICE-hating jerk popped up. Although LAScanner was skating around the edges of calling for violence, this “new guy” hater was actively doing so. His X handle is @Learnedpolitic, and his name, it's being reported, is Benjamin “Benny” France. He is (as of 8 a.m. Pacific time) an active duty Naval Officer and a JAG (Judge Advocate). He’s since deleted his account, or it has been suspended, but he was calling for ICE agents to be “hunted down.

Benny threatening ICE agents didn’t sit well with a lot of guys on X who are active duty or vets and have the ability to “find” people. They found Benny, and it appears he is about to “Find Out.”

Here is a string that sets up “Benny’s” likely exit from active duty.

Benny called SecDef Hegseth a “drunk” and also said that he was incompetent to lead the Department of Defense. Besides taking time out of his work day to post threats against ICE agents, Benny France has called his boss a drunk and incompetent. There should be, and I am guessing will be, consequences for Ensign Benny France.

What is the likely result? I think Benny will be called on the carpet and given a choice to resign his commission or be court-martialed. Nonetheless, his future as a CNN “expert” is likely secure.

Axios: Trump Ready to Crush Riots with 1807 Insurrection Act
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[Regnum] US President Donald Trump is considering using the Insurrection Act of 1807 to suppress protests in Los Angeles. This is reported by the Axios portal.

“Trump is closer than ever to invoking the Insurrection Act, driven by a desire for power unconstrained by governors, generals and other factors that constrained him in 2020,” the publication says.

The outlet points out that the president has already subordinated California's National Guard to federal authority, bypassing the state's consent, which violates established practice. In addition, Axios emphasizes that Trump has openly demonstrated a willingness and even determination to enforce the law, calling protesters rioters in a statement on Monday.

As the portal notes, the Insurrection Act of 1807 allows the use of US troops to suppress domestic unrest and is one of the most emergency powers available to a sitting president.

As reported by the Regnum news agency, protests against raids to identify illegal immigrants in California last week turned into riots. On June 8, Trump announced that he had sent the National Guard to Los Angeles to restore order. That same day, the Pentagon announced that it would send 700 Marines to the city.

Reuters noted that Trump deployed the National Guard to California without consulting with the state's governor, Gavin Newsom. The governor is against the decision, saying the president took the step not to ensure security, but to "satisfy a dangerous ego."

On June 9, the American leader said that sending the National Guard to Los Angeles saved the city from total destruction. He also accused the Governor of California and the Mayor of Los Angeles Karen Bass of lying for saying that the protests were peaceful.

[Regnum] US President Donald Trump said on June 10 that he would withdraw the National Guard from California, sent there because of the unrest, only when the situation in the state becomes safe.

“Until it’s no longer dangerous… When it’s safe, they’ll leave,” he answered journalists’ questions about the withdrawal of security forces.

Reuters noted that Trump deployed the National Guard to California without consulting with the state's governor, Gavin Newsom. The governor is against the decision, saying the president took the step not to ensure security, but to "satisfy a dangerous ego."

Top US general says he presented Trump with plans to hit Iran, military ready to strike if ordered
Against future need — President Trump appears still in negotiation mode.
[IsraelTimes] The top US military commander for the Middle East says he has presented US President Donald Trump with military plans to strike Iran and is prepared to do if so ordered.

“I have provided the secretary of defense and the president a wide range of options,” Central Command head Gen. Michael Kurilla says during testimony before the House Armed Services Committee.

Kurilla was responding to Representative Mike Rogers of Alabama, the chairman of the committee, who asked if CENTCOM was prepared to respond with overwhelming force if Iran does not permanently giveup its nuclear ambitions.

“I take that as a yes?” the Alabama Republican asks, after Kurilla responds.

“Yes,” Kurilla

The old one was WAR PLAN CRIMSON, I believe.
Today the new one is Trump's.
It won't happen becaue Canada will surrender, but anyway.
Even Fall Grun was more of a parade than invasion.

US issues sanctions against charities allegedly supporting Hamas, PFLP
[IsraelTimes] Ramallah-based Addameer, five other NGOs based in Gaza and Europe sanctioned for diverting donations meant for humanitarian aid to terror groups including Hamas’s military wing

The US Treasury Department on Tuesday imposed sanctions on a major Paleostinian legal group for prisoners and detainees along with five other charitable entities, accusing them of supporting terror groups, including Hamas
..one of the armed feet of the Moslem Brüderbund millipede,...
’s military wing, under the pretense of humanitarian aid in Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
Those sanctioned include Addameer, a nongovernmental organization that was founded in 1991 and is based in the Paleostinian Authority-controlled city of Ramallah in the West Bank.

The group provides free legal services to Paleostinian political prisoners and detainees in Israeli custody and monitors the conditions of their confinement.

Washington claimed that Addameer ("Conscience" in Arabic) "has long supported and is affiliated" with the Popular Front for the Liberation of Paleostine.

A fiercely anti-Israel Marxist-Leninist group, the PFLP’s armed wing pioneered plane hijackings in the 1970s and has carried out deadly attacks against Israelis. It is proscribed as a terror group by the US, Israel, and the European Union
...the successor to the Holy Roman Empire, only without the Hapsburgs and the nifty uniforms and the dancing...

The NGO is officially non-partisan and independent, though many of those the group defends have been accused of being tied to the PFLP.

Additionally, its former director Khalida Jarrar — who was released from administrative detention in January 2025, as part of a hostage-release, ceasefire, and prisoner-release deal with Hamas — is a prominent PFLP official.

Israel, too, has alleged that Addameer funds terrorism, a claim that the United Nations
...an organization originally established to war on dictatorships which was promptly infiltrated by dictatorships and is now held in thrall to dictatorships...
previously said it could not support with compelling evidence.

Israel’s 2022 storming of Addameer’s offices, after Jerusalem designated it and five other groups as terror organizations, prompted a rebuke from the UN, which said in a statement that Israel had not provided convincing evidence to support the claim.

The UN said Addameer was conducting "critical human rights
...which are often intentionally defined so widely as to be meaningless...
, humanitarian and development work in the Occupied Paleostinian Territory."

In February, the Zachor Legal Institute, an Israeli-American advocacy group that says it focuses on combating antisemitism and terrorism, requested that Addameer be added to the Treasury’s sanctions list.

In a letter, which was signed by 44 other groups and addressed to US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Zachor relied in part on undisclosed evidence from Israeli security sources in its call for sanctions on Addameer.
Marc Greendorfer, president of Zachor Legal Institute, said in an email to the News Agency that Dare Not be Named that his group was "very pleased to see Treasury following up on our request."

He said the federal government should act "to prevent hostile foreign actors from spreading hate and violence in the United States. We applaud Treasury’s action and encourage Treasury to expand its focus to the other groups that we identified."

Other entities hit with sanctions Tuesday include:

1. The Gaza-based charity Al Weam Charitable Society and its leader

2. The Ottoman Turkish charity Filistin Vakfi and its leader

3. El Baraka Association for Charitable and Humanitarian Work and its leader

4. The Netherlands-based Israa Charitable Foundation Netherlands and two employees

5. The Italia-based Associazione Benefica La Cupola d’Oro

All five groups, along with the named individuals, intentionally raised money for Hamas’s military wing, though some of their donors were unaware of the terror ties, according to the US Treasury Department.

A 2024 report by the Department highlighted how online crowdfunding is increasingly done under the guise of soliciting legitimate charitable donations, making it difficult to identify as terrorist financing.

Because the majority of crowdfunding activity is legitimate, "this status can make it more difficult for law enforcement attempting to investigate potential (terrorist financing) cases with a crowdfunding and online fundraising nexus," the report said.

Man charged over plot to kill NYC Jews on Oct. 7 anniversary deported from Canada to US
[IsraelTimes] US attorney says Pakistani national ‘planned to use automatic weapons to kill as many members of our Jewish community as possible, all in support of Islamic State’

A Pak man was extradited from Canada to the United States on Tuesday to face charges of plotting to carry out an attack on Jews in New York City, the Justice Department said.

Muhammad Shahzeb Khan, 20, also known as Shahzeb Jadoon, was arrested in Canada in September while in the country on a student visa.

According to a criminal complaint, Khan planned to travel to New York and carry out a mass shooting in support of the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems....

attack on Israel.

"He planned to use automatic weapons to kill as many members of our Jewish community as possible, all in support of IS," US Attorney Jay Clayton said in a statement.

Khan allegedly revealed his plans in conversations with conspirators who were actually undercover law enforcement officers, the Justice Department said.

He was taken into custody by Canadian authorities in the municipality of Ormstown some 12 miles (19 kilometers) from the US-Canada border.

Khan is charged with attempting to provide material support and resources to a designated foreign terrorist organization and attempting to commit acts of terrorism. He could face a maximum of life in prison if convicted.

International-UN-NGOs
The Real Mastermind Behind Greta Thunberg's Gaza Flotilla
Jewish Voice for Peace, the Freedom Flotilla, the one the Soros foundations invented to replace AIPAC, only nobody was interested —
[Townhall] Swedish activist Greta Thunberg’s “Freedom Flotilla,” which attempted to bring aid to Palestinians living in Gaza, is the brainchild of a Hamas-linked figure in the United Kingdom.

Palestinian journalist Zaher Birawi reportedly described himself as a “founding member” of the Freedom Flotilla International Coalition, which arranged Thunberg’s ill-fated voyage to the Gaza Strip, according to The Telegraph.

Mr Birawi, a Palestinian-British journalist at an Arabic-language satellite TV channel in London, was at the launch of the Madleen a week ago, livestreaming it from its dock in Sicily. Ms Thunberg gave a speech before the boat set sail for Gaza.

In 2013, Mr Birawi was designated by Israel as a Hamas operative in Europe and is the head of the Europal Forum, which Israel designated as a terrorist organisation in 2021.

The Europal Forum strongly denied any terror links, and in 2021 Mr Birwani received compensation after taking legal action against a financial database, which he said had wrongly placed him on a terrorism watch list.

He denied ever being involved in any illegal acts within the scope of terrorism crimes.

Speaking in the Commons in October 2023, Christian Wakeford, the Labour MP for Bury South, used parliamentary privilege to name 63-year-old Mr Birawi as a Hamas operative living in Barnet, north London.

Birawi “is listed as a trustee of a UK-registered charity, Education Aid for Palestinians, and publicly available video shows him hosting a 2019 event in London titled Understanding Hamas,” Wakeford said.

When Hamas massacred Israeli civilians on October 7, 2023, Birawi reportedly referred to the tragedy as a “blessed morning.”



Birawi became involved in Islamist activities after moving to the UK in the early 1990s. He became the chairman of the Muslim Association of Britain, an organization affiliated with the Muslim Brotherhood, in 2001. The Muslim Brotherhood has been linked to several terrorist organizations. He has been instrumental in the protests against Israel in the UK.

While Birawi denies any involvement in terrorist activities, there are several indications that he is deeply tied to Hamas. The Israeli government claims he was a senior Hamas operative in Europe. He has been photographed alongside Ismail Haniyeh, who was killed by Israeli forces last year.

Israel-Palestine-Jordan
Gaza aid group says it distributed 35,520 boxes of food at three sites in Gaza today
[IsraelTimes] The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation says it distributed 35,520 boxes of food at three sites in central and southern Gaza today.

The US- and Israeli-backed foundation says each box contains meals for 5.5 people for 3.5 days.

However, its contents are largely dry food products that require community kitchens or cooking equipment to prepare, which are very scarce in war-ravaged Gaza.

GHF says aid was distributed without incident, but Palestinian media reported that 20 people were killed while en route to one of the distribution sites, in what has become a near-daily allegation.

The IDF said its troops fired warning shots at Palestinians who approached forces “and posed a threat” in the Netzarim Corridor area. The military said it was aware of the reports of casualties by its gunfire in the area, but “the reported number of casualties is inconsistent with the information available to the IDF.”

Responding to UK-led sanctions, Smotrich cancels waiver allowing Israel-PA bank ties
[IsraelTimes] Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich has directed his office to cancel a critical agreement for sustaining the Palestinian economy in retaliation for the decision by five Western countries to sanction him and fellow far-right minister Itamar Ben Gvir.

Smotrich’s office says in a statement that he directed the Finance Ministry’s accountant-general, Yali Rotenberg, to waive the indemnity that Israeli banks have been given to correspond with Palestinian banks.

Smotrich earlier in the day reportedly pledged to collapse the PA in response to the sanctions, even though Ramallah was not known to have any involvement in the joint decision by the UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Norway.

The Palestinian economy relies heavily on the banks’ relationships with their Israeli counterparts to process transactions made in shekels, as the PA does not have its own currency. Some NIS 53 billion ($14 billion) were exchanged at Palestinian banks in 2023, according to official data.

The overwhelming majority of exchanges in the West Bank are in shekels, Israel’s national currency, because the Palestinian Authority is prevented from having a central bank that would allow it to print its own currency.

The so-called corresponding banking agreement requires periodic extensions by Israel to remain in effect, and the Biden administration exhausted significant efforts in urging Israel not to allow its expiration. The administration warned that failing to maintain the banking relations between Israel and the Palestinians would turn the West Bank into a “cash economy,” which would benefit terrorist organizations in the territory and make it harder for the already-weakened PA to fight such groups.

The Israeli security establishment also pushed back against the move, and Smotrich ultimately agreed to grant a one-year extension to the banking deal last November.

Syria-Lebanon-Iran
UNIFIL says continued attacks on patrols unacceptable after new incident
[NAHARNET] The United Nations
...an organization which on balance has done more bad than good, with the good not done well and the bad done thoroughly...
Interim Force in Leb
...home of the original Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade....
(UNIFIL) on Tuesday said the continued attacks on its troops are ''unacceptable,'' after a patrol was attacked by residents and a peacekeeper was slapped near the southern town of al-Hallousiyeh.

Noting that the patrol had been coordinated with the Lebanese Army, UNIFIL stressed that freedom of movement is an essential condition for UNIFIL's mandate and added that it has the right to move with or without Lebanese Army troops.

It accordingly called on Lebanese authorities to take all necessary measures to guarantee that U.N. peacekeepers perform their missions without obstacles or threats.

The National News Agency had reported that ''young men intercepted the patrol because it was not accompanied by the Lebanese Army, which escalated into a verbal clash and a fistfight between the two sides.''

''Lebanese Army troops later intervened and pacified the situation, prompting the UNIFIL patrol to leave the area and return to where it came from,'' NNA added.

Such incidents have increased in recent weeks, with residents insisting that any UNIFIL patrol should be accompanied by Lebanese Army troops.

Hezbollah supporters in Lebanon frequently accuse the U.N. mission -- which was created to oversee the withdrawal of Israeli troops from southern Lebanon after Israel's 1978 invasion -- of collusion with Israel. Israel meanwhile accuses the peacekeepers of turning a blind eye to alleged Hezbollah military activities in southern Lebanon.

The incidents come amid unconfirmed reports that the U.S. and Israel are mulling to end the work of the U.N. force in south Lebanon through a U.S. veto against extending its mandate at the U.N. Security Council.

Hezbollah makes more drones fewer rockets, Israeli report says
[NAHARNET] Israeli media reports said that Hezbollah has ramped up its domestic production of explosive-laden UAVs and attack or reconnaissance drones as an easier and cheaper alternative to precision missiles and rockets.

Israeli news portal ynet said Tuesday that Hezbollah has drawn tactical inspiration from the effectiveness of drones in Ukraine as it aims for greater self-sufficiency and less reliance on Iran.

Hezbollah has said it can manufacture its own drones.

Last week, on the eve of the Eid al-Adha
...a major Moslem holiday, marked by animal sacrifice and ritual rioting...
holiday, the Israeli military struck several sites in Beirut's southern suburbs, saying they held underground facilities used by Hezbollah for drone production.

The Israeli army said in a statement that Hezbollah was "working to produce thousands of drones under the guidance and financing of Iranian terrorist groups."

Hezbollah "used drones extensively in its attacks against the State of Israel and is working to expand its drone industry and production in preparation for the next war," the army statement said.

ynet said the strikes were approved despite internal debate among Israeli leadership.

A Hezbollah official denied that there were drone production facilities at the targeted locations.

The Lebanese army said it tried to convince Israel not to carry out the strikes and to instead let Lebanese officials go in to search the area under the mechanism laid out in the ceasefire agreement, but that the Israeli army refused, so Lebanese soldiers moved away from the locations after they were sent.
