In the name of "building bridges," the Atlanta Jewish Film Festival selected Morehouse student Anwar Karim, acting president of the Morehouse Muslim Student Association, as a student juror at the Festival. The problem? Karim previously shared antisemitic content and participated in anti-Israel protests, easily found in minutes online. Now the Israeli Consulate has pulled its support, the community is up in arms, and the Festival issued a full apology. Many are calling on Executive Director Kenny Blank to step down.

Former Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich has passed away.

We hear Hamas and their supporters attempting to draw a moral equivalence between hostages stolen, some in their pyjamas from their beds, and Hamas terrorists convicted of mass murder or detained in the process of planning mass murder. It’s a lie, of course. Hamas kidnapped 251 people, tortured them, some for over two years. Israel is releasing some of the worst people in the world. Evil people who may go right back to trying to kill Jews. We do it because we worship life and want our family members back home. We’ll take the risk. Don’t buy the Hamas lie. There’s no equivalence. They’re evil. The hostages are innocent. This is about two opposites, not two equals.
