We welcome the leadership of @SenTedCruz in repeatedly speaking out clearly about the growing threat of antisemitism across the ideological spectrum and the need for moral clarity in confronting it. 
The rise of antisemitism poses a real and urgent danger. We echo his call for elected officials in both parties to take a firm stance and refuse to allow it to be normalized.  
Antisemitism, including anti-Zionism, has no place in our politics, our discourse, or our society. jewishinsider.com/2026/05/ted-cr…

Thank you @capjewishmuseum and @ajcglobal for allowing me to pay tribute to Sarah and Yaron together with you. The resilience and strength shown by the Jewish community and law enforcement stand as a powerful symbol of perseverance.

When a former Flemish minister and current MP 'reveals' that Eurovision’s main sponsor “is a Jewish firm with lots of money. And as we all know money rules the world,” it exposes how rotten at its core this rhetoric remains in parts of high society.

“Just like the United States, Israel is a melting pot of cultures, religions, and ethnicities - where anyone can make a difference and become anything they want.” A powerful reflection from our very own Sawsan Hasson, Minister of Public Diplomacy at the Israeli Embassy in the U.S., and the first Druze woman to enter Israel’s diplomatic service - embodying that very spirit. On Yom Ha'atzmaut, we celebrate the diversity, opportunity, and people who make it all possible. Wishing everyone a happy Independence Day 🇮🇱

We commend EU member states for rejecting efforts by a small group of countries to isolate Israel by suspending the EU–Israel Association Agreement. Such efforts are misguided and counterproductive, weakening prospects for meaningful dialogue and cooperation. Strong, principled EU–Israel engagement, grounded in shared interests and values, must continue. @AJCTAI has consistently opposed efforts to isolate Israel within the EU and has long worked to keep dialogue channels open, including ahead of summer 2025 when suspension was regularly discussed at the Foreign Affairs Council. We will continue to do so. politico.eu/article/eu-rej…

1/3 As an Iranian-American who served my adopted country both in uniform and as a civilian, it is sad to watch some Americans act as an extension of the Iranian regime's propaganda machine, downplaying our service members' achievements for no reason other than domestic political score-settling. I shouldn't have to do this, the results are self-evident, but since these claims started in Tehran and are being spread here, here is a response to each one.
Ilan Goldenberg@ilangoldenberg

I am thankful that we have a ceasefire.  It happened much faster than I expected and it was the right move.  But let’s be clear that this war ends (if the ceasefire holds) as a total strategic disaster. The scorecard  Nukes: Iran still has the HEU Proxies: no change or impact  Missile  and drones : Iran demonstrated its arsenal is sustainable and survivable under massive US and Israeli pressure.  Strait of Hormuz: Iran’s leverage to use it as a bargaining chip has dramatically increased. Regime: killed Khameini but his son is still in place and unless they collapse in the aftermath will probably be just as strong or stronger then when this started. US allies: totally screwed in the Gulf and horribly strained relations in Europe. Global economy: major damage.  Israel: will be even more globally isolated after this and no more secure.  Region: as unstable as ever requiring a greater US commitment. US capacity to be prepared for major contingencies in the IndoPacific set back for years. But at least we took out their navy and destroyed their useless Air Force 🤷‍♂️. An epic strategic disaster.

A piece of the Iranian cluster missile hit next to the Embassy of Ukraine in a residential neighborhood in Tel Aviv this morning. This demonstrates once again that the regime's strategy is to deliberately increase civilian casualties. It's part of the strategy of war crimes committed by the Iranian terrorist regime. Fortunately, no member of the embassy staff was injured in the attack. In recent days, thousands of drones, many of them Iranian Shahed drones, were launched by Russia against cities in Ukraine. We condemn these attacks and send our solidarity to the people of Ukraine and to all staff of the Embassy in Israel.
Andrii Sybiha 🇺🇦@andrii_sybiha

This morning, parts of an Iranian cluster missile fell some 30 meters from Ukraine’s embassy in Israel. Luckily, visitors were inside and none of them have been injured. This incident once again proves that Iranian regime poses a threat to everyone in the region. It does not respect not only the Vienna convention but basic norms of human life. It is important for everyone to be united in protecting life from such terror. Ukraine is making its contribution. And the pressure on regimes in Teheran and Moscow must be constantly increased.

Today, I spoke with the troops deployed in Brussels and Antwerp to help secure Jewish institutions. I was impressed by their professionalism and level of preparedness. We say NO to antisemitism! @BelgiumDefence is providing support where the threat is highest: protecting the Jewish community, contributing to FIPA operations against drug-related violence, and strengthening security in our train stations. Together, we will take back control. @BernardQuintin_

Rachel Goldberg-Polin has endured a pain no parent should ever face. Her only son, Hersh Goldberg-Polin, was kidnapped, tortured, and murdered by Hamas terrorists. Since his kidnapping, and even after his tragic death, she has fought tirelessly for the return of every hostage held in Gaza. Named one of @USATODAY’s 2026 Women of the Year, she has become a symbol of extraordinary strength and unwavering advocacy. Rachel’s courage is a testament to a mother’s love and a powerful reminder of resilience and humanity, even in the face of unimaginable loss and cruelty.

Ensuring that the Jewish community feels safe and truly at home in Belgium is something we must guarantee at all times. Thank you to everyone working tirelessly toward this goal.
Maxime PREVOT@prevotmaxime

🇧🇪🇺🇸 Constructive exchange with Ambassador Rabbi Yehuda Kaploun @StateSEAS, the US Special Envoy for the fight against antisemitism, on how to address the global rise in antisemitism. The recent hideous attack in Liège has sadly reminded us how urgent it is to address the concerns of the Jewish community. I’ve said it before and I’ll keep on saying it: antisemitism must be confronted clearly and firmly. The fight against antisemitism is a priority of the Belgian government and this must be translated in further actions and a reinforcement of the existing initiatives. Because protecting our citizens and ensuring that everyone feels valued is an investment in our collective future. @StateDept @BelgiumMFA

It was an honor to host Germany’s Federal Minister of Education in Washington today. Thank you, Minister @KarinPrien, for a wide-ranging conversation among friends. We greatly value Germany’s close ties with Israel and its leadership in the global fight against antisemitism, strengthening Jewish life worldwide, and as a partner in the transatlantic relationship.

Yesterday, TAI, led by its director Benedetta Buttiglione, had the honor of hosting @StateSEAS , Amb. Rabbi Yehuda Kaploun and @EUAntisemitism Katharina von Schnurbein, for a private dinner with leaders of the EU and the Belgian Jewish community. At a time when antisemitism is on the rise in Europe and across the globe, strengthening transatlantic cooperation is more important than ever. Together, we must remain united in confronting hate in all its forms and in protecting Jewish communities.

Ted Deutch, CEO of American Jewish Committee@AJCCEO·
Once again, this time in Detroit, Jews were targeted at their place of worship. 
Once again, Jews faced mortal danger simply because of who they are. 
Today in America, when Jews gather—whether at a synagogue or a community event—it’s increasingly behind metal detectors and under the watch of armed security. 
According to @AJCGlobal’s State of Antisemitism in America 2025 Report, 91% of American Jews say they feel less safe as Jewish people in the United States because of the violent attacks against Jews over the past year. 
We’re not asking for special treatment. 
We’re not asking for more outrage. 
We’re asking for something simple: that people everywhere stand up, clearly and unequivocally, and say that this violent hatred will no longer be tolerated.

We received a request from the United States for specific support in protection against "shaheds" in the Middle East region. I gave instructions to provide the necessary means and ensure the presence of Ukrainian specialists who can guarantee the required security. Ukraine helps partners who help ensure our security and protect the lives of our people. Glory to Ukraine!

Decade after decade, the Iranian regime has violated the human rights of its people and carried out attacks that killed hundreds of Americans. Standing with the Iranian people isn’t just right — it’s in America's national interest. AJC Senior VP for Policy and Political Affairs @FishmanJulie highlights why it's vital that America stands with the brave people of Iran and puts an end to the Iranian regime's efforts to target Americans.

AJC mourns the loss of four brave American service members who were killed and keeps in our thoughts those who were seriously wounded when an Iranian munition struck a tactical operations center in Kuwait during Operation Epic Fury. We honor their courage and hold their families in our hearts. Their sacrifice in confronting the Iranian regime’s reign of terror will not be forgotten.
U.S. Central Command@CENTCOM

CENTCOM Update TAMPA, Fla. – As of 7:30 am ET, March 2, four U.S. service members have been killed in action. The fourth service member, who was seriously wounded during Iran’s initial attacks, eventually succumbed to their injuries. Major combat operations continue and our response effort is ongoing. The identities of the fallen are being withheld until 24 hours after next of kin notification.
