Today, on U.S. Memorial Day, we honor the American troops who risked their lives for their country 🇺🇸🕯️

There is something the world will never fully understand about us. For two thousand years, we prayed three times a day toward a city we could not enter. We ended every Pesach Seder with four words — Next year in Jerusalem — knowing we would not be there next year, or the year after, or the year after that. We said it anyway, for two thousand years. We said it in basements in Toledo while the Inquisition burned our books in the plaza outside. We said it in shtetls in Poland while Cossacks rode through the streets. We said it in Yemen, in Morocco, in Iraq, in Iran, in lands where being Jewish meant paying the jizya and walking with our heads down. We said it in Auschwitz. Next year in Jerusalem. And then, one day, the impossible happened. A people that had been called a corpse by every historian came back to life. A language that had been declared dead returned to ordinary conversation. A city that had been forbidden to us became our capital again. We came home. Not as guests. Not as refugees. Not by anyone's permission. We came home because we had never stopped being from here. The bones of our prophets are in this ground. The names of our cities are in this ground. The verbs of our prayers describe this ground. When a farmer in the Galilee turns the soil today, he is turning the same soil Yeshayahu walked on. When a child in Yerushalayim learns the alef-bet, she is learning the same letters David sang. When a soldier in the Negev raises a flag, he is raising it over the desert where Avraham buried Sarah. This is not coincidence. This is not real estate. This is covenant kept. And the world cannot stand it. They cannot stand that we are still here. They cannot stand that we built a country in seventy-seven years while they spent seventy-seven years complaining about it. They cannot stand that the children of survivors became fighter pilots. That the children of refugees became surgeons. That a language whispered in attics became the operating system of universities, hospitals, courts. They will keep coming. They came as Pharaoh. They came as Babylon. They came as Rome. They came as the Crusaders. They came as Spain. They came as the Cossacks. They came as the Nazis. They came as Arafat. They came as Hamas. They came as the slogans on Western campuses. Every generation has its version. Every generation has its excuse. Every generation thinks this time they will finish what the last one started. And every generation has been wrong. Because what they do not understand — what they have never understood — is that we are not here by luck. We are here because three thousand three hundred years ago, at the foot of a mountain in the desert, a people said yes to a covenant and that covenant has not expired. Not when the Temple fell. Not when Spain expelled us. Not when Europe gassed us. Not when the entire world voted against us in 1947 and then went to lunch. The covenant holds. So when you see the Israeli flag, look closer. It is not a flag of conquest. It is not a flag of supremacy. It is the flag of a people who waited two thousand years to raise it and who will not lower it again for anyone. Not for the boycotts. Not for the resolutions. Not for the editorials. Not for the marches. Not for the bombs. Not for the kidnappings. Not for the lies told in our name. We have survived louder enemies. We have survived crueler enemies. We have survived enemies whose empires now exist only in textbooks. We will survive these too. Because we are not just a country, we are a promise kept. And promises kept by HaShem do not bend to the noise of those who never understood them in the first place. עם ישראל חי. ✡️

I’ll take you and @TheJusticeDept up on that. Antisemitism has no home in PA’s schools, and together we’ll root it out. Hope you will agree to have Philly be one of the stops on the National Awareness & Action Tour to combat antisemitism.

Brandy describes her alarm as a doctoral student in a school of education regarding the one-sided far-left ideology, rhetoric, and resources which were infused into the training of education students in how to teach core subjects in grades K–12. She explains that this activist, foundational ideology includes a running theme that the United States is a settler-colonialist state which deserves to be dismantled, and that this narrative includes a running antisemitic theme referred to as “from Turtle Island to Palestine.” She notes that K-12 students whose teachers are trained this way then go on to hear more of the same ideology from their university professors, and she worries that we haven't yet seen the full force or end result of this problem in K–12 classrooms.

SEATTLE: Authorities put up the islamic regime flag in the lead-up to the World Cup. Iranians in the area knew what needed to be done, and acted. There will be no more tolerance for Khomeini's fake crab flag. I applaud this absolute patriot.

This is why @FDD has a program on Education & National Security. I'm so very proud to work with such an amazing team! @NomiFried @JenRichmond @SimoneJWei @ewilpon

It's no wonder students cheer for rapists and murderers when college administrators allow terrorist organizations to operate on U.S. campuses. Great job by @NomiFried for exposing GUPS operating on @SFSU 's campus.

If Galindo wins. I will force a vote to expel her, everyday, until we achieve that objective! I will hold the floor everyday until she is gone. My grandmother was part of the kindertransport out of Berlin. Her parents were killed in Auschwitz. My kids are never going to “the camps”

“A tree fell in a forest and no one was there to hear it. This was a landmark event, not because we came to relitigate Israel facts or debate Zionist history, but because we came to name something. To examine antizionism as a distinct ideological phenomenon: the defining scourge targeting Jews in the West for the past two decades. This symposium did not offer them the story they know how to tell, nor the one they wanted to tell. There was no Jew on the defensive, fending off antizionist libels. The lens was not on the Jews. It was on the bully. And that, apparently, stumped them entirely. The silence is its own statement.”

First current political candidate suggests concentration camps for American Jews. This should be national news! National Democratic leaders must call this out immediately

Antizionism is not “criticism of Israel.” It’s an anti-Jewish ideology. This 3.5 minute clip w/James Lindsay & Alex Pierson at the @tafsik @SAntizionism symposium is about: 1) new research by NCRI 2) details most people don’t know about the origins of an anti-Jewish ideology.

We are still searching for Esti. Along with many others, I am doing everything we can to help find her. If you are available to help search, please come. The meeting point is 20 Danby Ave.

🚨 Update from Shomrim on Toronto missing 14 year old Jewish girl: Shomrim volunteers and coordinators continue to work diligently alongside Toronto Police, Matzil Search & Rescue, and community organizations throughout the ongoing search efforts. Please help keep the hotline available for emergencies, credible sightings, and verified information related to the search. The most effective way to assist right now is by continuing to widely share the Shomrim flyer, leveraging your relationships and networks to have others post it on social media, and canvassing neighbourhoods door-to-door to help spread the photo and information as far as possible.

My @FDD examination into @QFIntl , the ruling Qatari royal family’s charity, and its funding of schools and teacher salaries in @AustinISD + @HoustonISD, found: * Qatari influence paid for books and curricula materials. *QFI programs in Austin used books from the Middle East that promoted an antisemitic conspiracy theory, used maps that erased Israel, and taught Islamic religious thought. * QFI sent classroom observers to public school classrooms and told teachers how to teach fdd.org/analysis/2026/…

The Jewish establishment has been fighting the wrong war for decades. "Antisemitism" as a term has been stretched to meaninglessness and the influence of Soviet Antizionism in the West since the 1960s. @BenShapiro, @NatashaPein, and @LekhtNaya just had the conversation the mainstream won't.

Have you ever heard the song Jerusalem of Gold? Written by Naomi Shemer and sung by Shuli Natan at the Israeli Song Festival 59 years ago today, this song was a prayer set to music - a nation's longing for a Jerusalem it could not enter. Three weeks later, the Six-Day War changed everything. When @IDF paratroopers reached the Western Wall for the first time in 19 years, they sang Yerushalayim Shel Zahav. That same day, Shemer wrote a final triumphant verse celebrating the reunification of the city. 🇮🇱 Yom Yerushalayim Sameach 🇮🇱 🎥 @jfcuia

It is happening in our classrooms, campuses, and institutions right now. Education must teach students how to think — not what to hate. 🎟️ Join to this critical conversation: stopaz.org/symposium

There is growing evidence of the well-funded and well-organized campaign to dismantle western civilization. These organizations are starting with Israel, but that's not where they'll stop. This is why we see Soviet and Chinese communist flags flying alongside Islamist flags at these demonstrations. Our free speech laws mean that they have the right to cheer for communism and Islamist caliphates. However, the American taxpayer does not have to subsidize our downfall by providing tax-exempt status to organizations that offer no charitable good for our country.

Qatari officials claim @QFIntl gives modest grants to teach Arabic in U.S. public K-12 schools. But Qatar pumps billions into U.S. universities.  I investigated what they're doing in Texas K-12 public schools. Here's what I found 👇 🧵below fdd.org/analysis/2026/…
