Arab staff of German newspaper Deutsche Welle accused of antisemitic social media postsnoreply@blogger.com (Unknown), 06 Dec 05:45 AM German newspap Like   Tweet   Arab staff of German newspaper Deutsche Welle accused of antisemitic social media posts noreply@blogger.com (Unknown), 06 Dec 05:45 AM German newspaper Süddeutsche Zeitung reported last week on an investigation it performed on social media posts of some Arab editorial staff of state-owned broadcaster Deutsche Welle. In response, Deutsche Welle announced it will have an independent, external investigation of the charges. Antisemitic posts on social media would violate DW's Code of Conduct. The original article at Süddeutsche Zeitung detailing its findings is behind a paywall, but here's a summary of some of the findings from DWDL: The allegations are serious: According to the report, several members of the Arab editorial staff have made anti-Semitic comments on social networks in the past. An editor, for example, expressed condolences for a deceased German Holocaust denier, describing the mass murder of the Jews as an "artificial product". It is only one of several derailments that the "SZ" reports. Some of the allegations have apparently been known for years. In the case of an employee, there should have been a conversation as early as 2017. Since then, "according to our knowledge", the man has been observing the principles that...Read More Chanukah video night 8: The Hey Song (TheBiblePlayers) plus Kerry Bar-Cohn on Israel's Got Talent noreply@blogger.com (Unknown), 05 Dec 05:30 PM Plus, this bonus of a religious American immigrant to Israel performing a Chanukah song on Israel's Got Talent this week: * * * * * * ...Read More To understand how immoral and depraved the pro-Palestinian Left is, watch this movie trailer noreply@blogger.com (Unknown), 05 Dec 03:00 PM This is the trailer for a 2019 documentary, Feyadin, that is being shown in Austin tomorrow and is recommended by the Austin Film Society. Watch the whole thing. Based on the five minutes from this trailer, why do you think Georges Abdallah is in prison? It sounds like it is because he is a Leftist, a communist, a Palestinian nationalist, a Lebanese hero, a purely political imprisonment. Not once does the trailer mention the actual crimes he committed. Abdallah was the leader of the Lebanese Armed Revolutionary Factions, one of many PFLP offshoots, which was responsible for a string of terror attacks across Europe in the 1980s. On January 18, 1982, Georges Abdullah murdered US Army Lieutenant Colonel Charles R. Ray, shooting him in the head at point blank range in as he was walking to his car in Paris. On March 31, 1982, Yaacov Bar-Simantov, second secretary of Israel's embassy in France, was shot in the head three times by a young woman as Yaacov was with his wife and 8-year old daughter in the lobby of his apartment house. Abdullah helped mastermind that murder. On March 24, 1984, Robert O. Homme, American Consul General in Strasbourg, France, was shot five times at point blank range. He survived...Read More 12/05 Links: Publishers against the People of the Book; PM: Iran can't both negotiate and enrich uranium, must pay price for violating deal noreply@blogger.com (Ian), 05 Dec 01:00 PM From Ian: 11 Days in May For 11 days, beginning May 10, "Hamas fired nearly 400 projectiles a day" for a total of "approximately 4,350" (680 of those rockets landed in Gaza, killing an estimated 91 Palestinians). The airstrikes marked the largest—in terms of number—ever lobbed toward the Jewish state in its young history. The tactic was by design. Because while Hamas has grown in strength, so has Israel. It has the Iron Dome missile defense system that can, at this moment, effectively counter Hamas's rockets. It has more technologically advanced drones (air and sea) to counter Hamas's and a tunnel detection system in place to minimize the threat Israel faces in its own territories. But by firing as many missiles as it could—including a five-minute salvo that included a "remarkable 137 rockets"—Hamas was testing to see whether it could overpower and confuse Israel's Iron Dome. It didn't work. At no point in the 11-day battle did Israel incur significant destruction. Hamas, however, came close with a "lucky strike" near the Eilat-Ashkelon pipeline that could have crippled the oil supply and attempted strikes at the secretive Dimona nuclear facility that could have ended even worse. "The Gaza war of 2021 truly provided a glimpse of future warfare," says Schanzer. "But even the best technology and intelligence are no guarantee against the unforeseen events of war." Fortunately, the fighting earlier this year...Read More Two more examples of Jew-hatred that pretends to be "anti-Zionism" noreply@blogger.com (Unknown), 05 Dec 10:40 AM Here is video of the attack by a Palestinian Arab against a Jew in Jerusalem on Shabbat. Notice that the attacker passes by several people - and probably passed by many others earlier - and only decided to attack the visibly religious Jew. If he is anti-Zionist, then why not attack any Israeli? Why choose the one with a hat and beard? Because this was never about "Palestine." Palestinians are taught to hate Jews, and religious Jews are their preferred targets. Here's another video, proudly uploaded to TikTok: These girls pretend to take a Chanukah menorah hostage so the "yahood" give Palestine "back." Sure, they just hate Zionists. And I'm the Grand Mufti of New York. * * * * * * ...Read More Beneath the surface, things are very bad between Israel and the US noreply@blogger.com (Unknown), 05 Dec 08:00 AM Ronen Bergman at Ynet (Hebrew only as of this writing) describes how the relationship between Israel and the US has been badly fraying since the Biden administration has taken over, and Israeli officials are perplexed and worried. The US announcement that it was putting two Israeli cybersecurity companies, NSO Group and Candiru, on a blacklist was made without giving Israel any real warning ahead of time, and it was clearly a message not at the companies but at Israel itself. The Department of Commerce, which made the decision, has not been answering calls or emails from Israeli officials to explain how this happened. Bergman says that Israeli security officials are so shocked at this and other moves by the Biden administration that they have even floated the unthinkable idea of not sharing critical intelligence with the US. This seems unlikely, of course. As Bergman elaborates, Israeli intelligence has saved the lives of hundreds of US soldiers, by giving advanced warning of two major attacks on American bases - a major missile attack on the Ain al-Assad base in Iraq in January 2020 and the armed drone attack on the Al-Tanf base in Syria in October.
