StandWithUs

Hindu friends and supporters invited StandWithUs to a lunch prior to the start of its 2026 annual International Conference to discuss opportunities for more collaboration and support. Peggy Shapiro, Executive Director of Center for Combating Antisemitism (CCA), stated, "Hindus and Jews have more in common than most people realize. We are ancient civilizations, vibrant democracies, which are creating modern miracles. Thank you to Nissim Reuben and Bob Peckar of the American Jewish Committee and the Hindu Jewish Coalition of America, for making these meaningful connections."

🚨BREAKING: Red alert sirens sound in northern Israel as the Iranian regime continues to fire missiles at Israel. This is the fifth missile salvo fired at Israel in the last hour.

🚨BREAKING: For the fourth time in the last hour red alert sirens sound in the Jerusalem area as the Iranian regime continues to fire missiles at Israel.

British prosecutors charged two men with spying for the Iranian regime by carrying out surveillance of people and locations linked to the Jewish community in north London. Nematollah Shahsavani (40) a dual Iranian-British national, and Alireza Farasati (22) an Iranian national, were charged following an investigation into their actions over five weeks during July and August 2025. British lawmakers and the domestic spy agency MI5 have long warned of threats posed to Britain by the Iranian regime, with a number of arrests made and plots discovered in recent years, even before the current US-Israeli military campaign against the Iranian regime began. The charges underscore the Iranian regime's ongoing efforts to surveil and threaten Jewish communities across Europe as part of its global terror operations. @StandWithUsUK

"Through the infamous Durban conference, History is giving us Jews a signal. And we had better learn to decode it." - Elie Wiesel ### Today, Mayor Mamdani celebrated St. Patrick's Day by spreading the vicious blood libel against the Jews, claiming that we had perpetrated a genocide in Gaza. He platformed and praised Mary Robinson, the previous President of Ireland, whose leadership of UNHCR was forever marked by the stain of the antisemitic Durban conference, from which the American delegation resigned in protest. Read here what my father wrote in September 2001, days before 9/11, expressing his profound disappointment in Mary Robinson and the hatred against Jews she had allowed to foment at Durban through the United Nations. Elisha Wiesel - March 17th, 2026 ### FROM ELIE WIESEL'S PRIVATE ARCHIVES: The Durban Conference will go down in History as an enterprise of shame. Instead of being an important international gathering of goodwill, it became a circus of slander. Conceived as a world gathering against hatred, it turned into a mean spirited meeting of hatred. I was supposed to be there. Both Kofi Annan and Mary Robinson tried their best to persuade me, especially since I was a member of the small "Committee of Eminent Persons", created by the UN High Commissioner, to help with the proceedings. But when I read the working documents I resigned. Antisemitism, which is the oldest group prejudice in History, didn't even figure in the program. What did figure was something about "holocausts such as the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians by the Israelis". Mrs Robinson called me several times. I had lunch with the UN Secretary General, whom I had known for years. I explained to both why I simply cannot be part of an event that is so outrageously anti-Israeli and anti-Jewish. They claimed that the language would be changed. But the trouble was the content. I warned the UN Secretary General that the Conference, the way it was being prepared, will remain a moral disaster in the annals of social and political conduct among nations. For the content was sheer vicious hatred whose reverberations must revolt all decent and civilized people. Secretary Powell and his colleagues were outraged. Their courageous stand deserves support and praise. The American and Israeli delegations left; others did not. I wish European and South-American delegations had followed their example. Their explanation is that they will work from the inside to work out another draft resolution. It's too late. The damage was done. Hatred is like cancer. It goes from cell to cell, from limb to limb, from person to person, from group to group. We have seen it at work in Durban. Even respected personalities such as Kofi Annan somehow lost his way and said things that are unworthy of him. With the Durban scandal in the background, how can the world expect Israel to trust the United Nations? And how can good people, idealistic people have faith in its mission to bring nations together in an atmosphere of dignity? The Durban conference will be remembered as a forum dominated not by anti-Israelis but by antisemites. That militant Palestinians hate Jews that is known. It is enough to hear the various Islamic leaders harangues and read schoolbooks printed by the Palestinian Authority: they preach hatred and violence not against Zionists but against Jews. Their slogan, naked and brutal, which is everywhere the same, has been felt and heard in Durban too: "Kill the Jews!" What hurts is not that Palestinians and Arabs voiced their hatred but that so few delegates had the courage to dissociate themselves from them. It is as if in a weird and frightening moment of collective catharsis, they all dropped their masks and showed their true faces. Through the infamous Durban conference, History is giving us Jews a signal. And we had better learn to decode it. Elie Wiesel - September 4th, 2001

Israel's Energy and Infrastructure Minister: “The damage to the electricity grid in the north is localized and not significant. Israel Electric Corporation teams are already operating in the field and have restored power to most of those affected. Electricity will be restored to the remaining areas within a short time. Additionally, in the barrage to the north, there was no significant damage to infrastructure sites in Israel.”

🚨 BREAKING: an Iranian regime missile hit Bazan oil refinery complex in the Haifa area, northern Israel. No physical injuries reported thus far.

"Israelis have a sense of meaning and purpose, which contributes to their overall satisfaction with life," said Anat Fanti, a happiness policy researcher at Israel’s Bar-Ilan University. Perhaps the most remarkable finding: Israelis under 25 were the happiest demographic within Israeli society, ranking third globally, in sharp contrast to other Western nations where youth happiness has plummeted. "The level of social support and genuine friendships in Israel are part of the social texture of Israeli society."

Despite another year of war on multiple fronts, Israel once again ranked eighth in the World Happiness Report published Thursday, maintaining its position for the second year in a row. A testament to its resilience, unity, and unwavering spirit even during challenging times. 🇮🇱
