UN postpones vote on demand for humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza
A UN Security Council vote on a demand for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war was delayed by several hours on Friday until after a planned meeting between Arab ministers and US Secretary of State Antony Blinken.
The United States - a veto-wielding power on the council - has said it does not currently support further action by the 15-member body on the conflict between its ally Israel and terrorist militant group Hamas in Gaza, a Palestinian enclave. The council last month called for pauses in fighting to allow aid access.
The United States and Israel oppose a ceasefire because they believe it would only benefit Hamas. Washington instead supports pauses in fighting to protect civilians and allow the release of hostages taken by Hamas in a deadly Oct. 7 attack on Israel.
"While the United States strongly supports a durable peace, in which both Israelis and Palestinians can live in peace and security, we do not support calls for an immediate ceasefire," Deputy US Ambassador to the UN Robert Wood told the council.
"This would only plant the seeds for the next war because Hamas has no desire to see a durable peace," he said.
The council was now due to vote on a resolution drafted by the United Arab Emirates at 5.30 p.m. (2230 GMT) - just after Blinken meets in Washington with ministers from Egypt, Jordan, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the Palestinian Authority and Turkey.
"Today this council will vote, it will have an opportunity to respond to the deafening calls across the world to bring this violence to an end," Deputy UAE Ambassador to the UN Mohamed Abushahab told the council.
To be adopted, a Security Council resolution needs at least nine votes in favor and no vetoes by the five permanent members - the United States, Russia, China, France or Britain.
Speaking to the UN Security Council, Deputy US Ambassador Robert Wood said:

Daniel Greenfield: This is Why America Forgot How to Win
Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin stopped by the Reagan National Defense Forum to deliver an address titled, ‘A Time for American Leadership’. What leadership lessons did he have to offer?PA envisions ruling Gaza with Hamas as a partner
“I learned a thing or two about urban warfare from my time fighting in Iraq and leading the campaign to defeat ISIS,” he told his audience. “Like Hamas, ISIS was deeply embedded in urban areas. And the international coalition against ISIS worked hard to protect civilians and create humanitarian corridors, even during the toughest battles. So the lesson is not that you can win in urban warfare by protecting civilians. The lesson is that you can only win in urban warfare by protecting civilians.”
He then went on to lecture that “we will continue to press Israel to protect civilians” and” that “protecting Palestinian civilians in Gaza is both a moral responsibility and a strategic imperative.”
Gen. Austin headed Central Command from 2013 to 2016. Obama officials blamed Austin for telling Obama that ISIS was “a flash in the pan” (while Austin’s people denied he said that.) Central Command’s intelligence failures against ISIS were so bad that they resulted in an investigation into whether intelligence had been falsified to make it look like we were winning.
By the fall of 2016, after 3 years of fighting, ISIS had only lost a third of its territory in Iraq and Syria. That was in large part because the Obama administration refused to allow the military to properly hammer ISIS. Under Trump, our hands were no longer tied and we hit ISIS hard.
Despite Austin’s claims that victory against ISIS came from protecting civilians allied with the Islamic terror group, the reality was just the opposite. Fussiness over civilian casualties during the Obama administration translated neither to victory nor civilian lives saved. On Austin’s watch, airstrikes against ISIS killed civilians, but that was always inevitable.
It’s impossible to take out Islamic terrorists whose entire operating model is to fight from behind and around civilians without civilian casualties. The choice is between a long grueling war, which Obama and Austin gave us, or a short devastating campaign, which Trump gave us.
The Palestinian Authority’s preferred outcome of the war against Hamas in the Gaza Strip would be for the terrorist organization to join a P.A.-led governing body as a junior partner, Bloomberg quoted P.A. Prime Minister Mohammad Shtayyeh as saying on Friday.
“Hamas before Oct. 7 is one thing, and after is another. … What is needed really is a situation in which Palestinian unity should be allowed to function on very clear bonds and agenda,” Shtayyeh told the outlet.
“Therefore, I think, if they are ready to come to an agreement, and really accept the political platform of the PLO, accept the tools of struggle … there will be room for talks,” he said, adding that “Palestinians should not be divided.
“For Israel to say that they are going to eradicate or eliminate Hamas, I don’t think that’s a possible goal to achieve, simply because Hamas is not in Gaza only. Hamas is in Lebanon, everybody knows Hamas leadership is in Qatar and they are here in the West Bank,” said Shtayyeh.
When asked by Bloomberg to condemn Hamas’s Oct. 7 slaughter of more than 1,200 people in Israel, Shtayyeh refused, claiming the conflict didn’t begin on that date and Israeli officials have failed to speak out against “things done by their citizens to Palestinians.”
On Oct. 21, Shtayyeh likewise refused to condemn Hamas’s crimes against humanity, telling CNN‘s Becky Anderson that “what has happened yesterday is yesterday.”
According to Shtayyeh, U.S. officials visited Ramallah earlier this week to discuss a plan for the day after the war in Gaza. He claimed both sides agreed that Israel shouldn’t occupy the coastal enclave, reduce its territory for a security zone, or resettle its residents.
Red Cross reprimanded hostage families: 'Think about the Palestinians'
Families of Israelis being held hostage by Hamas were reprimanded by representatives of the Red Cross in a meeting earlier this week, with the Red Cross telling one family they need to "think about the Palestinian side," KAN reported on Thursday night.
Roni and Simona, the parents of Doron Steinbrecher who was kidnapped by Hamas terrorists from Kfar Azza on October 7, were invited to a meeting with the Red Cross earlier this week.
Doron needs a medication she takes daily and her parents thought that the Red Cross was finally willing to transfer the medication to her, but instead they were sat down and reprimanded by representatives of the Red Cross.
"Think about the Palestinian side," the representatives of the Red Cross told Simona, according to KAN. "It's hard for the Palestinians, they're being bombed."
Simona expressed shock at the Red Cross's behavior. "We left there as we entered: without new information, without something new, and with disappointment," said Simona.
On October 7, Simona and Roni saw the terrorists headed for the area where Doron lived. Doron called them but the call dropped within a few seconds. She sent one last voice message to her parents, saying "they caught me, they caught me, they caught me."
Since then, Doron has been held hostage by Hamas. Her parents thought she would be released in the recent ceasefire, but the fighting resumed without her being returned.

Aviva Klompas: Don’t want Israelis in Gaza? They don’t want to be there, either
To be sure, Israel must abide by the laws of war and make maximum efforts to avoid civilian casualties. Critics can disagree with how Israel is waging war in Gaza, but they cannot, in good faith, deny Israel’s duty to defend its citizens and free the estimated 137 remaining hostages.‘10/7 Project’ to counter pro-Hamas propaganda, merge communication among US Jewish groups
Critics who would deny Israel this right are, very often, the same people who deny Israel’s right to exist in the first place. Those calling for a ceasefire want Israel to retreat from a terrorist group that still holds many hostages, and which will only regroup afterward to stage multiple additional attacks.
Such a retreat would send a dangerous message to Israel’s enemies in Hezbollah and Iran, who are watching from other potential battle fronts, assessing Israel’s willingness to respond.
The goal of peace-loving people should not just be an end to this current war but an end to all wars in Gaza. That is only possible if the threat of Hamas is removed once and for all. Israel’s soldiers must complete this mission, progressing methodically and carefully to minimize Palestinian civilian casualties.
A terror state built over 15 years cannot be dismantled overnight. But once it has been dismantled, both Israelis and Palestinians will welcome the day when Israeli soldiers no longer fight in Gaza.
A new effort bringing together some of the most influential Jewish advocacy organizations seeks to maintain bipartisan support for Israel’s war to end the Hamas terrorist organization that runs the Gaza Strip.White House removes CAIR from national strategy on antisemitism
The “10/7 Project,” announced on Dec. 5, is geared to centralize communication among the American Jewish Committee, the Jewish Federations of North America, the Anti-Defamation League, AIPAC and the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations.
Starting with a newsletter, the project will offer rapid responses and fact-based coverage of the ongoing war against Hamas. It will also focus lawmakers’ and the public’s attention on the 100-plus hostages still being held captive in Gaza, and offer rebuttals of common anti-Israel misinformation.
“Since Oct. 7, there has been a concerted and consistent effort from Israel’s enemies to draw a false and dangerous equivalence between Hamas’ deadly rampage to destroy the Jewish state and Israel’s right to defend itself against terrorists,” said Ted Deutch, CEO of the American Jewish Committee. “The 10/7 Project will be a trusted and timely source of accurate information to set the record straight and combat false narratives perpetuated by Hamas terrorists and their anti-Israel allies.”
Eric Fingerhut, president and CEO of the Jewish Federations of North America, said it was “imperative that we separate fact from fiction regarding America’s most important Middle East ally and remind people that the vast majority of Americans understand that Hamas is our common enemy.”
When the White House announced its new national strategy to counter antisemitism on May 25, it stated that 24 organizations were supporting “the whole-of-society call to action.”
The Council on American-Islamic Relations was among the two dozen, per an archived version of the page.
As of 1:51 p.m. on Dec. 7, the archived page continued to reference CAIR, but at some time thereafter, the White House removed that reference.

Also on Thursday, Andrew Bates, White House deputy press secretary and senior communications adviser, told reporters that the White House condemns “shocking, antisemitic statements” of CAIR’s executive director “in the strongest terms.”
Nihad Awad, CAIR’s national executive director, spoke at the American Muslims for Palestine convention in Chicago on Nov. 24. “The people of Gaza have the right to self-defense,” he said at the time. “Israel, as an occupying power, does not have that right to self-defense.”
He added that he was “happy to see people breaking the siege and throwing down the shackles of their own land.”
Thousands of Hamas terrorists invaded the northwestern Negev from the Gaza Strip on Oct. 7, killing some 1,200 people and wounding thousands. They took at least 240 Israelis and foreign nationals back to Gaza as hostages.

CAIR Director Stands by Celebration of October 7 Attack, Claims He Was Praising ‘Everyday Palestinians’
Reached for comment after the video was publicized by the Middle East Media Research Institute on Thursday morning, Awad said his remarks had been taken out of context and claimed he was not referring to the Hamas terrorists who slaughtered more than 1,000 Israelis on October 7. “The average Palestinians who briefly walked out of Gaza and set foot on their ethnically cleansed land in a symbolic act of defiance against the blockade and stopped there without engaging in violence were within their rights under international law; the extremists who went on to attack civilians in southern Israel were not. Targeting civilians is unacceptable, no matter whether they are Israeli or Palestinian or any other nationality,” Awad told National Review in an exclusive statement.
Israel believes that as many as 3,000 terrorists invaded the country on October 7 and that many everyday Gazan civilians exploited the border breach to participate in the atrocities.
“What I actually said while discussing international law: Ukrainians, Palestinians and other occupied people have the right to defend themselves and escape occupation by just and legal means, but targeting civilians is never an acceptable means of doing so, which is why I have again and again condemned the violence against Israeli civilians on Oct. 7th and past Hamas attacks on Israeli civilians, including suicide bombings, all the way back to the 1990s—just as I have condemned the decades of violence against Palestinian civilians,” Awad added.
However, the statements Awad cited as evidence of CAIR’s supposed evenhanded condemnation of Israeli and Palestinian human-rights violations do not include explicit criticisms of Hamas terrorism and are instead mostly dedicated to scolding Israel.
“Benjamin Netanyahu’s far-right, openly racist cabinet ministers admitted that they planned to commit war crimes against Palestinian civilians in Gaza and that is exactly what they are doing by bombing schools, mosques, marketplaces, hospitals and apartment buildings while starving a captive population,” Awad said in a Cair statement released on October 10, just three days after the Hamas attack and before Israel had even begun to retaliate.
“The Israeli government’s medieval siege and mass bombing of Gaza are self-declared war crimes under international law. Our nation must be consistent in supporting international law and repudiating war crimes against all people, whether they are Palestinian, Israeli, Ukrainian or any other nationality. Allowing Netanyahu to turn wipe out tens of thousands of innocent Palestinians and turn Gaza into another Aleppo or Grozny will not bring peace or stability,” the statement continued.

IDF winning in Khan Yunis, but facing high resistance
The IDF is steadily winning control of pieces of Khan Yunis away from Hamas, but is facing some of the toughest resistance of the war to date.
If on Monday night, the IDF caught Hamas by surprise by invading Khan Yunis from multiple directions and with creative maneuvers, as the week has dragged on, the terror organization regrouped, found its footing, and "is fighting over every centimeter."
The IDF confirmed on Friday afternoon that after a prolonged raid, many weapons were found in the area of a school, including launchers, mortar barrels, RPGs, explosives and intelligence belonging to the Khan Yunis Brigade.
Information warfare
In parallel to unleashing a mix of massive fire power from the air, artillery, tanks and a range of infantry and commando units, the IDF is using information warfare to inject a wedge between the general Gazan population and Hamas.
The name in Arabic for the informational warfare campaign refers both to "opening the gates of hell" for Hamas as well as "a new horizon" for Palestinian civilians.
That means that there are both areas where Hamas forces are surrendering and areas where they are fighting with great intensity.
Insurgency tactics
It is expected to take the IDF time to gain control of Khan Yunis due to the mix of terrain between built-up and agricultural areas and Hamas's extensive tunnel network.
There has also been an increase in using female lookouts and female Palestinians to try to attack IDF forces with improvised explosives.
The IDF is hoping to get more Palestinian civilians to move to Rafah and a humanitarian zone near Khan Yunis, but Hamas continues to use them as human shields, forcing the IDF to use creative tactics to mitigate harm to civilians, while making military progress.
Top defense officials during the ceasefire predicted that the main part of the war would go on until the end of January, followed by a three to nine month lower-grade insurgency.

Col. Richard Kemp: IDF kills fewer civilians per combatant than most other armies
Former commander of British forces in Afghanistan praises 2:1 civilian to combatant death ratio in Gaza compared to other wars.
Colonel Richard Kemp, the former commander of the British military forces in Afghanistan, praised the IDF for its success in avoiding civilian casualties during its operations against the Hamas terrorist organization in Gaza.
In a video published to X (formerly Twitter), Col. Kemp spoke of the reported death tolls in Gaza, where Israeli sources have anonymously said that 5,000 Hamas terrorists have been killed out of a death toll of about 15,000, a ratio of one combatant casualty for every two civilians.
"Civilian casualties in combat are always devastating and tragic. But unfortunately, they're a feature of almost every war," Col. Kemp said. "Many times, I have seen the horror of civilian casualties despite the immense efforts the British army and our allied armies take to avoid them."
"The UN estimates that the civilian-to-combatant death ratio in conflicts since the Second World War averages nine to one. That is a shocking nine civilians killed for every combatant. That figure reflects the fact that it includes armies that have no regard for civilians. For example: The Syrian army, the Russian army, and the armies of other dictatorships," he said.
"Like the British, however, the Americans are very careful to minimize civilian deaths. In Iraq, estimates suggest US forces killed three civilians for every combatant. And in Afghanistan, between three and five to one.
"In previous conflicts in Gaza, the IDF has achieved a significantly more favorable casualty ratio, generally between 0.6 to one and two to one. It's still awful, but much better than most, if not all other armies engaged in combat," he said.
Col. Kemp pointed out that the IDF has managed to achieve these historically low combat ratios "despite the reality that Hamas fights from within the civilian population, use human shields, and deliberately try to force the IDF to kill as many of their civilians as possible. This is so the world turns on Israel and falsely condemns it for war crimes."
"With help from much of the media, the UN, and so-called human rights groups, it works every time, encouraging Hamas to do it again and again

The progressives appalled anyone cares about Hamas's rape brigades
Leave it to Canada to try to reconcile accounts of Hamas gang rape with the modern morals of the West. Take the Canadian embassy to Israel, for example.
“Sexual & gender-based violence impact both Israeli & Palestinian women and girls, and also men and boys, in distinct ways,” it wrote in a post this week. “Canada condemns all use of sexual and gender-based violence as a tactic of war.”
That’s right. Instead of condemning the many instances of sexual violence perpetrated against Israeli women by terrorists of the Palestinian government on Oct. 7, Canada’s embassy diffused blame and victimhood across the entire region as if it happened equally, to everyone, everywhere.
Indeed, it’s quite clear who did the raping and who suffered the unthinkable. Many accounts won’t be heard because many of the victims are dead, but Hamas left enough evidence in the carnage. The BBC has reported of photos from attack sites showing bodies of Israeli women naked from the waist down showing signs of trauma. Eyewitnesses have described gang rape and execution, while first responders have found horrific injuries among the corpses: broken pelvises, bruises, tears. Now-released hostages have also recounted experiences of sexual abuse in captivity.
Even a vague summary of the evidence so far evokes a feeling of disgust, and rightfully so. Rape is vile. Our culture places high value on an individual’s right to make their own choices when it comes to intimacy. The large-scale violation of this boundary by enemy forces is deployed to humiliate women, and entire populations when committed en masse, by violating the basic taboo that protects them in their day-to-day lives. If Hamas considers it an acceptable weapon of war, war with Hamas is inevitable.
Unfortunately, examples abound of Canadian voices trying to minimize the savagery that occurred that day. These aren’t the drink-spiking, heteronormative Christofascist male supremacists that intersectional feminists warned you about. Nay, it’s the intersectional feminists themselves: people of the very movement that insists “manspreading” is a form of systemic sexism.
One such example comes to us from law professor Heidi Matthews of York University.
“Is wartime sexual violence a horrific crime? YES, with no mistake,” read the unobjectionable half of Matthews’ tweet Tuesday. It didn’t stop there: “But sex exceptionalism is also traditionally used to whip up support for entire military campaigns — we see Israel and the U.S. doing this now to justify a prolonged disproportionate air and ground war.”

Why are people still denying Hamas’s rapes?
It’s been provided not just by the Israeli authorities but also independent organisations such as The Sunday Times and the BBC. Journalists have been shown harrowing video testimony by a woman who witnessed a gang rape at the Nova music festival. She saw the victim being mutilated, having one of her breasts cut off before she was shot in the head by the final assailant while he was raping her.‘I Couldn’t Breathe’: Watch Arabs React After Screening Footage Of Hamas Slaughtering Civilians
It’s not even as though the terrorists hid what they were doing. They filmed the slaughter of men, women and children, leaving a trail of bloodied female corpses stripped of their underwear. International organisations including the UN have rightly been shamed for their failure to condemn these atrocities. Soon after the Hamas attack, a video of a woman in bloodstained sweatpants being forced into a truck was shared around social media, pointing to the horrors yet to emerge.
But reactions to the mass rape of Israeli women are not just hypocritical and heartless. They demonstrate the astounding lengths people will go to when they don’t want to believe some of the most graphic evidence of rape most of us have ever been presented with. Where is the survivor testimony, they ask. Why haven’t we seen video footage of actual rapes as they happened?
I shouldn’t have to point out that dead women can’t testify on their own behalf. Or that filmed evidence of women being raped may have been held back out of concern for the dignity of victims. Such demands for “proof” are sickening, but they also expose where the habit of rape denial ends up. The mass rapes in Israel are not a matter of “his word against hers”; there is abundant evidence in the form of women’s bodies, hideously abused by multiple attackers.
There are a couple of harsh truths here. One is about the readiness of women’s organisations to look away when victims don’t fit their ideology. But the biggest is the fact that no amount of evidence will ever satisfy the impossible demands placed on victims of rape.
Most sexual predators deny their crimes, but the Hamas terrorists recorded them so the world could see — and some people still don’t believe it. When rape denial extends even to perpetrators, how can women, anywhere in the world, get justice?
The footage has left journalists and lawmakers in tears during other screenings. Nearly every person from the Boston group was crying while watching the footage. During the debrief one man had to leave and no one was making eye contact with each other.
“I couldn’t contain myself, I had to go out,” Youssef Elazhari from Morocco said. “I’ve seen most of the videos, but seeing them all together gets to you. I had to change the air and cry a bit.”
Each house on a particular street in Kfar Aza faced a different fate. Some were entirely burned, some had bullet holes, others still have blood on personal items.
Elazhari said the section showing videos from the Nova music festival massacre was the hardest for him because he likes to attend similar events in Morocco.
“I know how happy people are at these types of events and how much they want to be with their community that is full of love,” he said. “But Hamas just wanted to kill them without even knowing who they are.
“In Morocco, Palestine is considered a noble cause but they don’t know who they are championing, they don’t know s***,” he said.
Elazhari added that he is not surprised by Israel’s response in invading Gaza.
“Hamas killed people and took hostages. That’s just telling the Israelis ‘come to my house and look for them,’” he said. “Hamas has no concept of failure: if you kill someone it’s glory, if you die, it’s also glory. There’s just no end.”
Osman said it’s frustrating when Hamas denies the atrocities.
“An Israeli was decapitated with a small knife and then his head was taken away,” she said recounting what she saw in the video. “I think that’s enough proof.”
Al Harbi said she doesn’t think the video would convince some people who hate Israel of the atrocities even if it were to be released publicly.

“I think some people don’t want to accept the reality and don’t want to give credits of what actually happened that day,” she said. “It’s a different kind of war happening.”
With the horrific scenes burned into her mind, Al Harbi said she will continue to advocate for peace.
“Seeing the bodies without without their heads and and seeing children crying over their family’s bodies … I think those scenes will always stick in my mind, and I think that will help me always to advocate for peace, that no children, no woman, no father deserve to to see such scenes, no matter what their religion or nationality,” she said.
Osman said she has no plans to stop advocating for peace and against Hamas.
“I have seen the horrific scenes coming out of Gaza, but I also do not allow them to confuse me,” she said. “I do remember what happened on the 7th of October — who instigated this war — and as a mother, as someone who grew up in the Middle East, as someone who has family across the Middle East and many friends in Israel, I cannot carry on living as if something hasn’t happened.”

Israeli missions worldwide illuminate in orange for red-headed child hostages
Under the leadership of Foreign Minister Eli Cohen, Israeli missions globally have initiated a campaign of solidarity for Kfir and Ariel Bibas, two young red-haired children held captive by Hamas.
The Foreign Ministry has directed all Israeli embassies and consulates to light their buildings in orange or display images of the Bibas family. Kfir, aged 11 months, and his four-year-old brother Ariel, along with their parents Yarden and Shiri, have been in captivity for 62 days following a terrorist attack on October 7.
Foreign Minister Cohen emphasized the significance of this initiative, stating, "As we light the first Hanukkah candle, our missions worldwide will illuminate in orange, showcasing images of Kfir, Ariel, Shiri, and Yarden. This act of solidarity aims to highlight the atrocities committed by Hamas terrorists and to rally international support for the immediate release of the captives." He reinforced the Israeli government's commitment to securing the safe return of the family, describing it as a paramount priority for the ministry.
The youngest hostage held by Hamas
The situation of the Bibas family has garnered international concern, with Kfir and Ariel being the youngest of approximately 40 hostages taken by Hamas on that fateful day. The global Jewish community, along with various international organizations, continue to advocate for their release, emphasizing the urgency and gravity of the situation.

Caroline Glick: The Making of Sadistic Terrorists: An Interview with Dr. Mordechai Kedar
As more and more evidence comes out of the inhumane and sadistic actions of Hamas, the world cannot comprehend what drives people to do such things. What is the ideology and worldview that stands behind such cruelty? Is this mindless bloodshed or are rape and pillage part of a more systematic war strategy?
To discuss these questions, Caroline Glick interviews Professor of Arab Literature Dr. Mordechai Kedar.
They delve into
- the religious texts and ideology of Hamas
- the end goal of many Islamic terror groups and where Israel comes in
- the political solution for much of the Arab world and the mistaken attempt to create a unified democratic state.

Elise Stefanik: The world is watching - fire these hateful presidents NOW: Congresswoman ELISE STEFANIK shamed three top college bosses in the infamous Jewish genocide row... Here she writes for DailyMail.com to make her unswerving demand
Ask yourself one simple question: should calling for the genocide of Jews be considered harassment and bullying?Ben Shapiro: Elise Stefanik Just Went Viral, Here’s Why
Anyone with a sliver of decency knows the answer is emphatically 'Yes'.
Yet when the university presidents of Harvard, MIT and Upenn testified this week under oath to Congress as I questioned them over the rampant and unabated antisemitism infecting their institutions, I could barely believe what I was hearing.
Rightly, their moral depravity has shocked the world.
I asked each of the three presidents – Claudine Gay (Harvard), Sally Kornblut (MIT), Elizabeth Magill (Upenn) – a simply question, one that a child let alone the leaders of our finest universities could have answered.
Does 'calling for the genocide of Jews' fall foul of their respective institutions' codes of conduct?
Each of them squirmed and evaded.
MIT's Kornbluth said that such depravity would only be considered harassment depending on the 'context' – if it was 'targeted at individuals, not making public statements' and if it was 'pervasive and severe'.
I pointed out that not only does her rhetoric dehumanize Jewish people but it also implies that calling for the annihilation of Jews is 'not severe'. Yet still she refused to change her tune.
UPenn's Magill was similarly infuriating, smiling smugly as she said: 'It is a context-dependent decision'.
Deeply disturbed, I pushed for clearer answers. But Magill's response was shocking in the extreme: 'If the speech becomes conduct. It can be harassment.'
'Conduct' meaning 'committing the act of genocide'?' I asked appalled, giving one more opportunity for her to correct the record. She couldn't.
Finally, I turned to Harvard President Gay. But depressingly, her answer was the same – that whether calls for the mass murder of Jews at her university constitutes harassment 'depends on the context'.
My God – in what 'context' is calling for genocide ever OK?
It doesn't take a Harvard degree to see the problem here.
It is now all-too-clear that heinous antisemitism has taken root on Ivy League campuses.
Higher education has long been a hotbed of Leftist hatred, engendering woke groupthink in the next generation. And here's proof that it's coming directly from the top, from university presidents who are unwilling to stand up for anyone who doesn't fit their warped world view of what constitutes a 'victim' – in this case, their own oppressed Jewish students.
Joining me on the line today is House Republican Conference Chair, Elise Stefanik. Tune in as we discuss the recent rise in anti-Semitism around America.
Professors who teach 'hurty hurty feelings' don't care about genocide: Douglas Murray
Author Douglas Murray has slammed the professors from several prestigious colleges as they refused to condemn calls for genocide as hate speech before the US Congress.
Mr Murray described the situation as a result of “decades of moral rot in universities”.
“These are institutions who just spent years telling us all about micro-aggressions but don’t seem to care very much about the biggest form of aggression imaginable – genocide,” he told Sky News Australia host Rita Panahi.
“Who have told us all about hurty hurty feelings and the importance of stamping out hate and you can’t condemn the most obvious and evil and prominent form of hate in history when it is put to them in Congress.
“None of these people are fit for purpose.”
Rise in anti-Semitism a result of left’s ‘Marxist’ and ‘progressive intersectionality teachings’
Accuracy in Media President Adam Guillette says the rise of anti-Semitism on American campuses is a result of the left’s “Marxist” and “progressive intersectionality teachings”.
Mr Guillette sat with Sky News host James Morrow to discuss how freedom of speech has decreased on various American campuses.
“The notion that everyone should be lumped into a group of either oppressors and oppressed, and all of those who are oppressed – the problem is free enterprise, free market capitalism, the solution is to overthrow capitalism and replace it with Marxism,” he said.
“That’s how you get LGBTQ groups teaming up with people who would throw them off of a roof if they were in Gaza or Iran.
“That’s how you get auto-workers teaming up with radical environmentalists who would take away all of their jobs – it’s intersectionality.”
Hamas do not ‘value human life’
Meriton Managing Director Harry Triguboff says the war between Israel and Hamas is “very unfortunate”.
Mr Triguboff told Sky News host Erin Molan the Israeli people “couldn’t believe” that Hamas would attack them in the way they did on October 7.
He made comments about Hamas not having any “value" of human life.
“So if they lose people, well tough luck they don’t care.
“Very difficult to fight someone who doesn’t care enough about its own people.”
The Arab Revolt against Hamas: Israel’s Golden Opportunity? | Our Middle East
Israeli Arabs have been brought closer to Jews because of the atrocities of October 7th, wanting to disassociate themselves from the cruelty and what they see as the un-Islamic behavior of Hamas.
Does this present an opportunity to bring Israeli Arabs and Gazans closer to Israel?
Cohosts Dan Diker and Khaled Abu Toameh discuss
- As the destruction of Gaza unfolds, more and more Arabs have vocally come out against Hamas on social media and television
- The Israeli government should embrace and invest in Arab Israeli infrastructure and full societal, economic, and security integration.
- For the sake of peace, the international community should support Israel in its quest to destroy Hamas.
Something deep has changed in Arab-Jewish relations inside Israel on October 7th.

Call Me Back PodCast: Would Gazans rise up against Hamas? – with Amos Harel
Today we get an update on the IDF operation in South Gaza, what Israel is learning about the Gaza tunnel system, what Israelis are learning through further de-briefing of the returned Israeli hostages, and what to make of reports of Palestinian civilians’ growing frustrations with Hamas. We also wanted to discuss the tragic loss of Gal Eisenkodt and what it says about Israeli society.Pinsker Centre: Ep. 41 – From West Bank to Gaza: What's Next for the Palestinians?
Amos Harel has been the military correspondent and defense analyst for Israel’s Haaretz newspaper for 25 years. He is among the most well-sourced and thoughtful journalists and analysts covering Israeli security affairs inside Israel. Prior to his current position, Amos spent four years as night editor for the Haaretz Hebrew print edition, and from 1999-2005 he was the anchor on a weekly Army Radio program about defense issues.
Along with frequent “Call Me Back” guest and Fauda co-creator Avi Issacharoff, Amos co-wrote a book about the Second Intifada, called “The Seventh War: How we won and why we lost the war with the Palestinians”, which was published in 2004 and translated into several languages, including Arabic.
Amos and Avi also co-wrote “34 Days: Israel, Hezbollah and the War in Lebanon”, about the war of 2006, which was published in 2008.
In this episode, our Policy Fellows Matthew and Ellie talk about the role of the Palestinian Authority (PA) in the Israel-Hamas war and its position in the West Bank. They outline the challenges the PA faces in the West Bank, including its rivalry with Hamas, and discuss whether the PA can be a legitimate governing force in Gaza in the future.The Israel Guys: Leaked IDF Document Shows TRUTH about Settler Violence in the “West Bank”
