Trumps takes on unbridled anti-Semitism propagating on US campuses

By signing the Executive Order, Trump’s presidential directive will broaden the existing definition of anti-Semitism to that of the IHRA, so that “targeting of the State of Israel” and singling it out for criticism above other nations will not spill over into religious discrimination that targets Jewish students.

By Itamar Eichner, News Agencies, Ilan Levinsohn

 

U.S. President Donald Trump plans to sign an executive order on Wednesday that would treat “Jewishness” as a nationality and not just a religion, making anti-Semitism subject to a law that bars discrimination on the basis of national origin at educational institutions that receive federal funding.

Turkey warns US not to declare Muslim Brotherhood terrorist group

Turkey’s Spokesman for the AK Party of President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan warns the U.S. that if it declares the Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist organization, it ‘would damage Middle East democracy.’

By Reuters and Israel Hayom Staff

 

The White House said on Tuesday U.S. President Donald Trump was working to declare the Muslim Brotherhood a foreign terrorist organization, a step that would bring sanctions against Egypt’s oldest Islamist movement.

Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah el-Sisi asked Trump to make the designation, which Egypt has already done, in a private meeting during an April 9 visit to Washington, a senior U.S. official said, confirming a report in the New York Times. Continue Reading »

Gaza riot operative warns Trump will be assassinated by a Palestinian

WATCH: Palestinian ‘Return March’ organizer Maryam Abu Moussa, threatens US President Donald Trump’s life during a Turkish TV interview, saying, “Your end will come at the hand of a Palestinian boy.”

By MEMRI TV Videos

 

Gaza Return March Activist Maryam Abu Moussa said on an April 24, 2019 interview on Thaqalayn TV, that the Palestinians will soon bury the Jews in the” ditches of Hitler”. Her nonsensical diatribe on air included claims that Hitler ordered the Russians to dig ditches to bury the Jews during World War II, but refused to do so because they were “humane”. Then she claimed that when Hitler ordered the Jews to bury the Russians in ditches, “they did so immediately.” Continue Reading »

#MuellerReport: Trump tried to thwart Obama’s anti-Israel UN resolution

The Muller report revealed Michael Flynn testified that before taking office, then President-elect Trump’s team attempted to prevent the infamous UN Security Council Resolution 2334 that Obama would allow to pass, condemning all Jewish presence in Jerusalem (yes, even at the Western Wall), Judea and Samaria.

By Arutz Sheva Staff,

 

The Israeli angle: The Muller report, which examined Russian involvement in the US presidential election, showed that Donald Trump worked to counter anti-Israel bias at the United Nations even before he entered the White House.

According to a report by Barak Ravid for Channel 13 News, Trump, his adviser Jared Kushner and former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn, worked with several foreign governments to prevent the Security Council Resolution condemning the Jewish presence over the so-called Green Line in December 2016,

Flynn said during his interrogation by the FBI that Trump and his team saw the thwarted decision as a significant issue. Continue Reading »

The end of an era: Trump White House ends, ‘The Palestinian Exception’

The ‘Palestinian Exception’, practiced by the previous three US Presidents,  involved allowing the PLO, PA and their supporters a ‘free-pass’ for behavior that would have otherwise been acknowledged as illegal, but ignored simply because the perpetrators were Palestinians or activists in their stead.

By CAROLINE B. GLICK

 

When Rosh Hashanah ended on Tuesday evening, Jews discovered that over the holiday, the Trump administration had enacted two policies – one foreign and one domestic – that on their face, don’t appear to be connected. But actually, they stem from the same rationale. And both together and separately, these two policies give Jews much to be thankful for. Continue Reading »

Trump’s trump card breaks 50-yr stalemate, Palestinians living 2nd ‘catastrophe’

Palestinian intransigence has forced Trump to look at the conflict as a ‘business deal’, uniquely changing the paradigm. To the Palestinian’s ire, there’s a ‘revolution’ to move forward – for both US fiscal responsibility, and Israel’s future…. or as the PLO would call it, a ‘nakba’ [catastrophe].

By Yochanan Visser

 

A revolution is taking place in the way the United States deals with the Palestinian Israeli conflict and it could have serious ramifications for the security situation in Israel some say while others see God’s hand in the stunning developments.

Last week the Trump Administration announced it would cut $200 million in U.S. Continue Reading »

Trump’s elimination of Palestinian deal breakers facilitates possibility of peace

ANALYSIS: President Trump is the first world leader with the fortitude to strike down the Palestinian’s unrealistic & intransigent demands that have axed every peace initiative, by every U.S. President, and every Israeli Prime Minister, over the past 40+ years.

By Tsvi Sadan

 

Trump’s presidency divides Americans like never before. Most, however, would agree that his policy decisions vis-a-vis the Middle East match Israel’s interests, and at least on this point, Israel’s friend–Democrats and Republicans, alike–should support him. And Trump’s new policy regarding the Palestinian refugees is no exception.

As published in the Israeli media, come September, Trump is going to denounce Palestinian claims to a “right of return” to Israel. Continue Reading »

Palestinians Claim UN No Longer Credible Due to America’s Right of Veto

Palestinian leaders, enraged at President Trump for blocking their ability to cynically manipulate the UN for political support, are now seeking ways to rid the United States of its veto powers at the Security Council.

By Ryan Jones

 

The United Nations has lost all credibility.

Not because it puts repressive regimes like Saudi Arabia, Syria and Iran on the councils responsible for human and women’s rights.

No, the UN has lost all credibility because it allows America to prevent the Palestinians from wasting the world’s time with pointless (and unsubstantiated) condemnations of Israel.

That, of course, according to the Palestinian Authority itself. Continue Reading »
