@NJACLaw is proud to announce its partnership with Community Security Service (CSS), the premier Jewish community security organization. We’ll provide legal counsel and strategic support, because protecting the community is heroic work and we are here to protect the protectors.

As my colleague @orensegal said, “protecting the Jewish community requires meaningful collaboration, information sharing, and collective vigilance." This enhanced partnership will help to sharpen and strengthen coordination between @ADL’s analysts and @TheCSSorg's on-the-ground security network for the benefit of the entire community.

This #VeteransDay, we are proud to announce a historic partnership with the Jewish War Veterans of the USA and the National Museum of American Jewish Military History to ensure the #safety, resilience, and continuity of #Jewish life.

A New York Times Investigation: a war document authored by Hamas’ top commander and hours of previously undisclosed intercepted communications from real time are shedding new light on the October 7 attack. With the great @adamrasgon via @nytimes nytimes.com/2025/10/11/wor… In August 2022, Yahya Sinwar, the powerful leader of Hamas in Gaza, authored a secret war document, envisioning brutal acts of aggression against Israeli civilians and soldiers. He called for militants to destroy civilian neighborhoods by dousing them with gasoline before setting them on fire as well as to broadcast the violent acts so as to evoke fear in Israelis and destabilize the country. A year later on Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas militants fulfilled Sinwar’s vision, with commanders echoing his words to their subordinates, according to intercepted communications. “Burn, burn,” Abu Muhammed, a commander from Gaza City, said at 9:52A.M. “I want the whole kibbutz to burn down.” Hamas denied targeting civilians that day but the documentshows that the brutality perpetrated by Hamas was part and parcel of the plan and the intercepts reveals orders Hamas commanders gave militants in real time. Our investigation also show the extensive efforts that Hamas undertook to broadcast its atrocities to the Arab world in hopes of stoking fear among Israelis and mobilizing people outside Gaza to join the fight. Put together, they paint a harrowing picture of how Hamas planned and carried out the most devastating attack in Israel’s history. nytimes.com/2025/10/11/wor…

“Deze zogenoemde Oktober Raad bestaat uit familieleden van omgekomen soldaten, gijzelaars en ander slachtoffers van 7 oktober.” Voor Nasrah zijn de in meerderheid burgerdoden van 7 October slechts “andere slachtoffers”. Eigenlijk waren het allemaal soldaten. Mooie framing en geschiedvervalsing weer bij de @NOS

Israëliërs eisen twee jaar na 7 oktober antwoorden: 'Niemand luisterde naar signalen' nos.nl/l/2585517?utm_…

We stand shoulder to shoulder with our partners @CST_UK and their brave volunteers. Our prayers are with their member and all congregants injured in yesterday’s brutal attack, wishing them strength and a full recovery. We will not waver in our resolve to protect our communities.

Heartbroken by the deadly terror attack at the Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation in Manchester. We at @TheCSSorg all stand with the British Jewish community and our partner @CST_UK in mourning the victims of this horrific assault. npr.org/2025/10/02/nx-…

During the intifada, Hamas blew up people irrespective of what their opinion was on Israel’s policy vis-a-vis the Palestinians. What mattered for these terrorists was whether they were living or residing in the one Jewish state. Terrorism is terrorism. “Violent resistance” is sugarcoating indiscriminate murder. You are a hack.

Whether or not you agree with the concept of violent resistance, the fact is, Greenblatt blatantly lied and no one batted an eyelash. This is what happens in the absence of proper education on global affairs and a diversity of cultures + experiences in the media 2/2

Besides what @PeterBeinart points out here, let me add that not one of the presenters corrected Greenblatt when he lied and said the intifada was a violent uprising that "killed people simple because they were Jewish." No. The intifada was an uprising against an occupation 1/

Het is een verschrikkelijke situatie maar toch zal dit de geschiedenisboeken ingaan met twee feiten die niet te ontkennen zijn: - Hamas viel Israël genocidaal aan op 7 October vanuit niet-bezet gebied. - Hamas hield 50 gijzelaars 2 jaar bruut vast met marteling en uithongering. Dat is niet “ja maar”, maar de kern van de oorlog waarin ik met je eens ben dat die al lang beëindigd had moeten zijn, en dat er veel te veel leed is.

Onze regering, de partijen in de Tweede Kamer, de mensen die dit bagatelliseren, die blijven roepen 'ja, maar...' - het zal ze decennialang achtervolgen. Het duurt niet lang meer of ze zullen zeggen dat ze hier altijd al tegen waren. De schandvlek van onze tijd.

Lees het maar eens, deze afsluitende alinea in @destandaard over kinderen in Gaza. Lees het dan nog eens.

@ColinPClarke Well. You and the Soufan Group do have a lot of friends in Qatar.

Just got this message from a friend and rabid Trump supporter: "that speech came across as 'Israel First.' not America First."

@piersmorgan Why did you remain calm and quiet when a Palestinian representative on your show claimed all remaining hostages are soldiers? Isn’t that “bullsh*tting”?

No, I don’t agree. If they’re bullsh*tting, like she was, I jump in and call them out.

Words matter. My assessment of the trajectory that led to yesterday's horrific attack in Boulder. theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…

“We talk about how to communicate […] with law enforcement and to really anticipate the different kinds of behaviors that might be indicative of a threat,” our CEO @RichardPriem said about our training to the @WSJ. wsj.com/us-news/d-c-sh…

Thank you @luketress and @TimesofIsrael for featuring the incredible volunteers #protecting our #Jewish community and the launch of our new CSS Training Academy. timesofisrael.com/in-first-us-je…

On October 8, you wrote that the Hamas-led assault meant Gazans “broke out of their prison” even though they border Egypt as well. What kind of “prison” is only walled in on one side, and it’s “break out” leads to the kidnapping of toddlers, taking them back into that same “prison” (& murder them)? You are as biased as they come and one of the reasons #bbc is repeatedly been misreporting the facts. A real journalist would recuse himself. Shame on you.

@iAnnetnl @Frank_GalantJr @PieterOmtzigt U bent die mevrouw die met valse berichtgeving een jodenjacht probeerde goed te praten? Dit past daarom prima in uw straatje. Gaat u schamen.

@Frank_GalantJr Ze lopen aan de leiband, als schapen. @PieterOmtzigt is nog wel de meest tegenvallende van het stel.

WTF! Francesca Albanese is een van de meest gerespecteerde vrouwen ter wereld. Altijd correct, capabel, jurisch onderbouwd. Enorme kennis, enorme invloed. Kunnen we een petitie starten en hem dwingen? Wat een karikatuur deze man.

Eli Sharabi was released this morning as part of the hostage deal. This is how he looks after enduring captivity under Hamas. Dozens of Israelis remain in captivity. Israeli TV (12) is now reporting that, only upon his release, he has learned the devastating news that his entire family—his wife Lianne and two teenage daughters Noiya (16) and Yahel (13)—were murdered by Hamas on October 7.
