The most thorough response to the actual accusations in the NAZA documentary I've read. From an IDF officer, (name/rank/unit provided) in which we can validate he was a part of and observed the processes the documentary attempts to cover. yairmiron.com/media/yair-mir…

When you consider that the New York Times ownership had ties to slavery, was a propaganda operation for Stalin when he was starving Ukrainians by the millions in 1932, downplayed and even covered up the Holocaust, helped usher in Fidel Casto in Cuba, and has been a propaganda operation for Hamas and against Israel, how can that media corporation be considered anything but a total abomination?  I don't want to hear about what a fabulous paper it has been in other matters. The list of genocidal maniacs it either supported or covered for outweighs anything else and all the rest.  It's coverage of the Hamas slaughter, rape, torture of Israelis since October 7, 2023, has been shameful and appalling.

BREAKING: It can now be revealed that a “freelance journalist” working for the ABC was actually a major Hamas terrorist. Roshdi Sarraj filed video for ABC 7.30. Sarah Ferguson signed off with condolences and called his death a “passing”. The ABC remembered him as a professional. The IDF now lists him as a military operative in Hamas’s armed terrorist wing. His brother Mahmoud, a Palestinian Press Agency reporter killed in a drone strike, is also on the same list. This is not one bad hire. The IDF has published a database of 170 Gazans presented to the world as journalists and media workers who it says served in the military wings of Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad and other terror groups. 118 of them are confirmed Hamas terrorists.Another 50 are with Islamic Jihad. 17 took part in the October 7 massacre. Some held command roles. Some worked for Reuters, AP, AFP, CNN, the BBC and the ABC. The press card was the uniform. Australia’s public broadcaster employed him, aired his footage, then eulogised him. AIJAC’s Colin Rubenstein called it exactly what it is: “more proof ABC Gaza coverage dumped impartiality, then spent months breathlessly mourning so called journalists who were legitimate military targets” The Antisemitism Royal Commission is already examining the ABC’s role in the rise of Jew hatred here. Gavin Fang has already admitted the UN “babies starving” line was a bad mistake. This is worse. Your taxes paid for the tribute. Hamas got the martyr poster. Australians got the sermon. Defund the propaganda. Name every terrorist the ABC called a “journalist”

Lots of photos circulated this week showing destruction in Gaza where combat was fiercest, consequence of the urban battlefield Hamas created. Missing from the photos is Gaza City and other areas left mostly untouched. A Gazan recently posted this image of Al-Rimal in Gaza City.

In these pictures: indigenous plants from our ancestral homeland, a little hut called a sukkah that we build to symbolize how we went into our ancestral homeland, and a Torah that we have been obsessively reading for thousands of years ending today and starting all over again immediately. And a bunch of children growing up to appreciate the written word, the power of education, and how incredible our people are. We’ve been around for thousands of years. We’ve seen empires come and go, other tribes come and go, and many haters come and go. And we have survived them all. We will survive this round as well. Whether they are Hamas terrorists or their keffiyeh-wearing fans on college campuses. Am Israel CHAI. Now and forever. Happy Simchat Torah and Shabbat Shalom everyone. We got this. Love and light, Noa

The next Congress will have a wave of new Democratic members looking for a serious, credible guide on the U.S.-Israel relationship. @DemMaj4Israel will be the first call. This framework shows why.
The U.S.-Israel partnership needs to modernize to meet today's challenges. This morning, DMFI released a new framework to do so. The goal, as our Chief Executive Brian Romick said, is to have a “helpful guide for our mainstream Democratic candidates on how to engage with a complicated issue.” Read the full vision here: demmajorityforisrael.org/mes…

Replying to @NYTimesPR
The New York Times's PR team says we can count on the Times for all the facts and just the facts. But... • When a misfired Islamic Jihad rocket struck the Ahli hospital, the Times rushed to blame Israel. • They called Hamas rocket attacks on Israel "stray rockets." • When a Palestinian holding a knife was shot while attacking Israelis, they suggested it didn't happen and called it a "Boy Scout" knife. • When an Israeli embassy guard was stabbed with a screwdriver, they framed the victim as the aggressor. • They ran Nick Kristof’s op-ed alleging dog rape based on unverified allegations and dubious sources. • They called rocket attacks targeting Israeli villages "rockets into Israeli airspace." • They described a deadly Palestinian stoning attack on an Israeli as an attack targeting "the road." • They framed the Nazi alliance with an antisemitic Palestinian leader as mere collaboration "against Zionism." • They dismissed Palestinian Authority payments to families of terrorists as a "far-right conspiracy." • They claimed Islamic Jihad—a group committed to Israel's destruction—is only fighting "the Israeli occupation." • They described a Palestinian lecturer who declared Jews "are evil" as a bridge-builder. camera.org/article/outlet/ne…

"Baby killers" The primary accusation leveled against the IDF is that of "baby killers" - despite the total absence of even a single documented instance of a child being intentionally targeted or shot by the IDF. Not one. Now, the mechanics of this deliberate fraud have been fully exposed: For two years, the Hamas Ministry of Health deceitfully classified every single natural death in Gaza as a casualty of war. This occurs despite the statistical baseline that, even before the conflict, approximately 600 infants died in Gaza annually from natural causes during their first year of life. (Gaza has a very high rate of cousin marriage- **around 20% to 45%** of all marriage - which significantly increases the risk of genetic diseases and birth defects in children.) So what did Hamas's ministry do? They cynically rebranded these natural infant deaths, falsely reporting that Israel executed 915 babies between 2023 and 2025, while attributing precisely zero infant deaths to natural causes. Major media publications swallowed and amplified this manipulation wholesale. For instance, a sprawling Washington Post project published in late July 2025 - which cataloged the names of roughly 18,500 allegedly killed children - was built entirely on these fraudulent Gaza Ministry of Health figures - but even taking these figures show a very high proportion of reported child fatalities that are actually older male adolescents aged 13 to 17- skewing the data because standard definitions classify anyone under 18 as a child, despite this specific demographic frequently functioning as active combatants, scouts, couriers, or logistical support in militant operations, a dynamic reflected in casualty analyses published by outlets like *The Washington Post* and in Hamas own publications about young "heros".

Every day, Hezbollah is able to keep its weapons and money is another day Iran gets a vote in the future of Lebanon. I just got back from Lebanon with @RepLaHood, where I pressed Lebanese leaders to fully disarm & defund Hezbollah, and deliver on the commitments Beirut made in June. A Lebanon without Hezbollah is key to the future of the Lebanese people, the Middle East, and America’s national security. jewishinsider.com/2026/10/go…

There's no excuse for journalists to miss the context of the Flydubai flight being a plane full of Israelis, the attacker apparently being Omani, and Israelis frequently being the target of terror attacks. Compare the @nytimes and @TimesofIsrael headlines below and ask yourself which one better captures the spirit and facts of the story? As CAMERA's @GileadIni put it, "This is a rhetorical question."

You have to admire the consistency: Iran loses deterrence, leverage, money, allies and room for maneuver, and @AliVaez still finds a way to call it a stalemate. By his standards, Cuba “won” the Cold War against the United States because the regime survived. However, his own evidence undermines his thesis. Iran entered this confrontation seeking deterrence, regional depth, nuclear leverage and the ability to weaponize Hormuz. All four have deteriorated. Its enrichment facilities were destroyed or badly damaged, oil exports have fallen dramatically, its currency and domestic economy are under extraordinary pressure, and even Reuters reports that Hormuz leverage is weakening as Gulf exporters reroute flows and markets adapt. The sleight of hand is defining victory downward: because Tehran still governs Iran, fires some missiles and retains shadows of its proxies, Vaez calls the balance unresolved. Most revealingly, Vaez concedes Iran cannot escalate effectively, cannot defeat America, and faces worsening constraints. That describes endurance under defeat, not equilibrium.
“No one will win” the war in Iran, writes @AliVaez. But Tehran and Washington will “fight on regardless, because they find the alternatives to be completely unpalatable.” foreignaffairs.com/iran/new-…
