Ett skolboksexempel på ensidig rapportering om Libanon. Inte ett ord om hur Hizbollah systematiskt byggt upp en militär närvaro i ett 60-tal byar i södra Libanon – mitt bland civila – längs gränsen mot Israel.
Därifrån har norra Israel beskjutits i över ett kvarts sekel. Detta trots upprepade FN-resolutioner som kräver att Hizbollah avväpnas.
Det rör sig inte om isolerade incidenter, utan om en massiv och långsiktig militarisering: raketramper i bostadsområden, tiotusentals robotar riktade mot Israel, vapendepåer i civila byggnader, avancerade tunnelsystem, drönarkapacitet – och närvaro av Irans revolutionsgarde.
Ändå lyser detta perspektiv med sin frånvaro i rapporteringen. Det israeliska säkerhetsläget reduceras till en fotnot – om det ens nämns.
Så vad återstår av kravet på saklighet och allsidighet?
När granskade public service senast hur civila i norra Israel i åratal levt under återkommande beskjutning? När problematiserades Hizbollahs roll på allvar?
Om vissa fakta konsekvent utelämnas är det inte längre oberoende journalistik – då är det selektiv berättelse.

– Problemet är att människor i Sverige i dag tvekar inför att öppet visa sitt stöd för Israel. Inte för att det är förbjudet, utan för att det kan få konsekvenser.

This weekend, EJA Secretary General @DavidLega was in Scandinavia for three full days.
Friday evening he opened the Nordic Israel Congress in Oslo, keynoting for MIFF (MedIsrael for Fred) on antisemitism and anti-Zionism in Europe. @miffno
Saturday he addressed the annual congress of Vänskapsförbundet Sverige-Israel outside Stockholm, speaking on Israel’s place in Brussels and the wider world, and what the September 2026 Swedish election means for Israel’s voice in Sweden and in the EU.
On Sunday, David was elected Chairman of Vänskapsförbundet Sverige-Israel, @SverigeIsrael
one of Scandinavia’s oldest and most active pro-Israel organisations, founded in 1953.
Two congresses, two keynotes, one new role. These are the partnerships that matter. Grassroots organisations, engaged communities, and leaders willing to speak plainly about what is at stake for Israel, for Jewish life in Europe, and for the democracies that need to choose a side.
Congratulations, David. Now get back to work. 🇸🇪🇮🇱🇳🇴🇪🇺

This is not just a list, this is timeline of attacks targeting Jewish institutions and communities across countries, cities, and continents. If this list does not alarm world leaders to act, what will?

We were honored to visit the Swedish Parliament during our Strategic Dialogue Conference. I want to express a heartfelt thank you to MP Magnus Oscarsson for hosting us and welcoming us to such an important institution, where decisions that shape nations are made. Your friendship and support mean a great deal to us.
I also want to extend my deep appreciation to the Israeli Ambassador to Sweden @zivnk Ziv Nevo Kulman for your steadfast service in a challenging environment. Your dedication over the years shows the trust and confidence placed in your work, we admire your courage and commitment.
To the leaders of European Jewish communities and organizations who joined us, I thank you not only for being here and sharing this experience but for the tireless work you do every day. Many of you face threats, restrictions, and personal sacrifices to protect your communities, and I want you to know that your efforts do not go unnoticed. You are an inspiration to many, and your dedication strengthens Jewish life across Europe.
I pray that you continue your important work with strength and resilience, and may your families bring you pride and joy. With faith and collaboration, I am confident that together we can build a safer and stronger future for our communities and for the world.

RT @EJAssociation: We spent two days in Stockholm, where the European Jewish Association brought together Jewish leaders from across Europe…

The @EJAssociation thank you so much for your dedication and support for the European and Swedish Jewry. We are grateful that you accepted our King Salomon Award presented in Stockholm this week. 🙏
Carl-Oskar Bohlin@CarlOskar
The collective European west has made a mistake in extending its tolerance also to the intolerant. The price for this mistake has been payed disproportionately by European Jews. We handed out citizenship to people who promoted antisemitism and wanted to overthrow our way of living. This self-inflicted condition has to stop. The other day I was honored to receive the EJA King Solomon Award and this is a part of the speech I was able to give at the reception.

Following the attack against the synagogue in Liège, Belgium, the U.S. Ambassador to Belgium, @BillWhiteUSA , visited the community to show solidarity and to see the synagogue that was damaged.
Our colleague @ralphpais had the honor of accompanying Ambassador White, who without hesitation left all his engagements to drive to Liège this morning.
They were received by the mayor of Liège, @WillyDemeyer who was very clear in his condemnation of the attack against the synagogue last night.
We thank Ambassador White for his support and for standing with the Jewish community at this difficult time.
