The Oct 7 war has brought 3% of Gaza’s population to an untimely end. Every war is a tragedy as is every death. The new antisemitism is marked by the false accusations of genocide – oddly while
explocitly ignoring the explicit attempts at genocide against Israeli Jews and Jews located around the world.
“The Delusion Behind the New Antisemitism” excerpt:
“On October 14, thirteen days before a single IDF soldier entered Gaza – the Qatar-based news network Al Jazeera unequivocally declared that “this is genocide.”[4]”
“The ‘Gaza Genocide’ is one of the biggest lies of the 21st century. It was generated and promoted by anti-Zionist and antisemitic networks following the October 7 Massacre to prevent Israel from saving its hostages, delegitimize the Jewish state, and fuel global antisemitism.“
Point to: GazaGenoLIE.com.
“The initiative points to Israeli evacuation warnings, humanitarian pauses, and vaccination drives for Gazan civilians as evidence that Israel has taken meaningful measures to reduce civilian harm.“
Gaza GenoLIE: The campaign fighting ‘a modern blood libel’ – JPost
“In 1144, the Jews of Norwich, England, were accused of ritually killing a Christian boy for his blood. For nearly nine centuries, the blood libel traveled, mobs close behind. It was never about what Jews did or didn’t do. It existed to give mobs permission to harass and kill Jews. Today, that same blood libel has a new name: the Gaza Genocide.“

Mohammad el-Atrash was part of the IDF surveillance structure. His death was part of the reason the leadership was unable to learn details about the attacks on Oct 7.

This document calls on Catholic leaders to reject replacement theology and defines systematic anti-Zionism as a contemporary form of antisemitism incompatible with the Nostra Aetate: of 1965:
“…Unfortunately, in the centuries that followed, St. Paul’s confidence in the irrevocability of God’s covenant with Israel was forgotten. A contrary belief gradually took hold: that God had rejected the Jewish people and punished them by sending them into perpetual exile. Although widespread in Catholic theological commentary and preaching, this theological supersessionism never became official Catholic doctrine…”
Key arguments and commitments in the appeal include:
Theological Basis: Affirming that God’s promises to Israel were never revoked in the New Testament and citing Romans 11:29 to reject the notion that the Church has replaced Israel.
Balanced Stance: Supporting Israel’s right to exist and defend itself against existential threats while simultaneously upholding justice for all inhabitants and condemning violence by extremists on any side.
Call to Action: Urging bishops, theologians, and Catholic media to clearly speak against anti-Israel sentiment and to teach the Church’s authentic doctrine on Judaism as an integral part of Catholic formation.
Scope: The statement has garnered signatures from over 150 Catholic clergy, scholars, and laity, including notable figures like Gavin D’Costa and Brigitte Gabriel, while also inviting non-Catholics to support the initiative.

It’s great to read of a Jewish religious viewpoint of swimming with the big fish in the Philippines:
“…I was so close to a whale that I could have reached out and touched it. Even now I find it hard to believe. I have always been wary of large animals, more than my wife is frightened of cockroaches…”
At 7 pm Sunday during prayers for Yom Kippur, an attacker fired 30 rounds fired at the police guarding a Canadian synagogue, striking the officer. The officer returned fire and hit the assailant.
“…Witness accounts and the preliminary investigation indicated that as many as 30 rounds were fired. A police cruiser, other vehicles, and nearby homes were hit…“
Recall that one of the slogans in the riots and “peaceful protests” is, “Globalize the Intifada,” meaning, take the Palestinians’ murderous attacks on Jews to all the nations.
Hours earlier in Israel, Netanel Shukrun took one of his sons to bathe in a spring, according to the strict religious observance of Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement). An Arab came specifically to hunt for such a Jew. From his car, he shot Netanel dead in his own car, then fled and was later caught by the IDF.
In a government meeting prior to starting the Fast of Yom Kippur, Netanyahu and other ministers had a discussion with military leaders. According to military law, so far they did not see any legal block to prevent the death penalty from being applied in this case.
Death penalty is exceedingly rare in Israel, however, the Israeli parliament (Knesset) has passed a “Death Penalty for Terrorists” Law.
“At the conclusion of the security meeting, the limited cabinet decided to schedule an additional meeting that would include the Military Advocate-General, who was not present at the Sunday meeting. The follow-up will aim to examine the relevant legal and procedural aspects of the case and assess the feasibility of applying the death penalty.” – Jerusalem Post
Meanwhile, also on Yom Kippur, the IDF enforced at least four other counter-terrorism operations, including in Bidda, Kabatiya, and Beir Ur al-Tahta.
At Sons of Jacob Synagogue in Belleville, Ontario, the 24 Jews praying at the synagogue were not harmed, but the armed guard is hospitalized and will require a long road for recovery:
“…Shukrun lived in the settlement of Alei Zahav in the northern West Bank, the Samaria Regional Council said.
“He went to the natural spring with his eldest son to immerse in the water before Yom Kippur.
“Shukrun worked as a systems information analyst, while his wife Meirav is a lecturer at Ariel University.
“‘A man of kindness, humble and a lover of people, was murdered just after he finished immersing [in the spring] with his son ahead of Yom Kippur. These barbarians will never break us — we will build our land even more,’ said Samaria Regional Council head Yossi Dagan…“

Rabbi Noa Kushner argues in her new book, Pretend You Believe: How to Enter Religion, that we need religion not to improve our lives or cultivate ethics, but for the sake of God and to enter into a relationship with the divine.
She explicitly rejects the label of self-help, contending that viewing religion as a tool for personal betterment or ethical improvement is a “consumer mentality” that diminishes its ultimacy. Instead, she invites skeptics to engage in a “thought experiment” by pretending to believe in God to discover the tradition’s perspective, which emphasizes humility, service, and the broader call to justice beyond individual needs.
“…Her book argues against one of the most familiar ways contemporary Jews talk about religion: as a means to an end, something they do because it gives them community, makes them more ethical, and helps them grow or otherwise improves their lives…”
Israel’s President Herzog said it best: Why didn’t these IDF soldiers and commanders bring their complaints through the established IDF channels?
Instead they went for a film that (A) was never aired in Israel and never subjected to critique, and (B) exposes their complaints to a European and global audience which is already hostile to Israel, minds already made up, and eager to accept any slander against the IDF.
Highly suspicious. I don’t know the state of Israeli laws regarding treason during wartime.
So this guy from Gaza joked about the attacks, and then joined in the attacks on Oct 7. Then he and his American wife went to Egypt and lied on their USA Visa application and went to the USA.
Phone transcripts and cell tower data show him joking about the attacks on Oct 7 then crossing out from Gaza at Kfar Azza, the most heavily hit village in Israel. His American wife lied on his visa application.
