Something is deeply shocking me, some people who call themselves “human rights activists” speak endlessly about Palestinian rights, yet won’t utter a single word about Hamas’s brutality against Palestinians. Not just silence, they actively cover for it. Spare us the hypocrisy.

Yet somehow only Jewish groups and institutions are targeted when people come after Zionists. It’s a fascinating distinction - almost as fascinating as the fact that antizionists never notice it.

@Fleischmarket @ariellakimmel There are FAR MORE Christian zionists in Canada and the US than there are Jewish zionists. Did you know that? I know that because as a kid I had to dis-indoctrinate (is that a word?) myself from Christian end-times zionism. It was pretty brutal. Literally brutal.

Without diminishing the actual issues of extremist violence, this thread raises interesting & concerning questions that monitoring orgs outside Israel may be seriously over-reporting instances of settler violence in the WB.
dan linnaeus@DanLinnaeus

You can’t make this stuff up: the EU is sanctioning the critic of its evidentiary methodology in issuing sanctions! The same sanctions apparatus whose evidentiary basis Regavim’s reporting and research has rigorously critiqued is now being turned on Regavim and its founder. This is outrageous, no matter where one sits on the political spectrum. France’s foreign minister Jean-Noël Barrot characterized the targets as “the main Israeli organizations guilty of supporting the extremist and violent colonization of the West Bank” but that politically charged accusation elides the fact that Regavim has done nothing more than credible research on the way manipulated data is being systematically weaponized against peaceful Israelis on government land. Last year, Regavim exposed the scale of the distortion in collected data. Of the thousands of incidents OCHA classified as “settler violence” against Palestinians between 2016 and 2023, it found over 98% of the alleged violence were not acts of civilian settler violence at all. Most involved clashes between Palestinians and Israeli security forces including during terror attacks; incidents include peaceful, lawful guided visits to the Temple Mount logged as ‘Storming Al-Aqsa’; misclassified events like road-paving, electrical pole installation and 19% of complaints in Judea & Samaria related to tourists or hikers being present on land, with no assault or property damage reported; outright fabricated records. Crucially, OCHA states that it requires two independent, reliable sources before logging an incident of “settler violence” against Palestinians. What counts as “two sources”? Apparently, the Palestinian who reports the incident and the Palestinian Authority body that intakes the report -- obviously not two independent sources, it’s one source and its receipt. The Palestinian Authority District Coordination Office isn’t independently witnessing or corroborating anything, it is merely transcribing the same person’s account. OCHA calls it two sources without considering the valuation work or threshold for the PA to log an incident. That’s word play in a serious report with far reaching implications, not verification. Sanctions law in the United States, both the Biden-era Executive Order 14115 framework and its analogues in EU Council decisions, requires evidentiary support for designations of specific individuals. “OCHA reporting” was relied upon by State Department, Treasury, and counterpart European agencies as evidentiary. Regavim proved “settler violence” warrants serious analytical attention as a category. UN OCHA reports informing US and EU sanctions decisions are demonstrably methodologically flawed. Now the EU is sanctioning the same research group, that uncovered the data corruption underpinning the EU sanctions regime! Importantly, the IDF and Shin Bet’s own internal numbers, released in January, record 1,720 nationalist-motivated incidents by Israelis against Palestinians since October 7, 2023. Last year alone, the defense establishment documented 845 such incidents, in which four Palestinians were killed and 200 injured -- a 25 percent increase over the 675 incidents recorded in 2024. Shin Bet attributes most of the violence to roughly 300 extremists, about 70 of whom it considers the “hardcore” responsible for the most severe attacks. So the problem is real, being condemned in Israeli media, being tracked by Israeli authorities and prosecuted. But it is much more marginal than is widely reported and the involvement of international EU sanctions is unwarranted when compared, for instance, with Italy’s extensive human rights abuse record against the Roma where no sanctions have been imposed.

We are outraged to learn that Canada has denied entry to officials from the Palestine Football Association ahead of FIFA pre-World Cup meetings in Vancouver. This is despite Canada’s host role and its recognition of the State of Palestine. Canada must reverse this arbitrary and discriminatory ban. theguardian.com/football/2026/…

@JoeTruzman @JoeTruzman - have any of the rumours (that this was prompted by Israel intel about a possible takeover/ coup attempt of the Lebanese government by Hezbollah) been substantiated or debunked?

Journalist Yossi Yehoshua reported the strike against Hezbollah on Wednesday was a highly successful, intelligence-driven operation comparable in impact to the pager operation, but more significant in key ways. Using a new intelligence capability, the IDF rapidly identified and targeted around 100 Hezbollah command centers within minutes, striking leadership-level figures equivalent to mid- and senior-ranking officers. The attack reportedly killed hundreds, including many commanders unlike the pager operation, which mainly hit lower-level operatives. Yehoshua emphasized the scale and precision of the blow to Hezbollah’s command structure, while noting that tensions remain high, the ceasefire is fragile, and retaliation from Hezbollah or Iran is high.

Report: Hezbollah allegedly prepared coup attempt in Lebanon Israeli Channel 24 reported that Lebanon was on the verge of a military coup, similar to the events of May 7, allegedly prepared by Hezbollah just hours before recent Israeli strikes. According to the report, the plan aimed to overthrow the government, though no independent confirmation has been provided. Separate indications cited include threatening statements from Hezbollah figures, including Mahmoud Qmati, who reportedly said the group is capable of “overthrowing the country and the government.” Additionally, Lebanese military sources are said to have thwarted attempted attacks and bombings in residential areas of Beirut in recent days. 👉 Stay updated—follow @MOSSADil.

נדב איל Nadav Eyal@Nadav_Eyal·
Some quick remarks: 1. An embarrassing and foolish episode by the Israeli police- but hardly surprising. The police in Israel is in a state of rapid decline and politicization. Some of the reasons are structural; others are directly tied to the appointment of Itamar Ben-Gvir- a convicted felon, a disciple of Kahanism, and a former member of the outlawed racist movement Kach- as minister in charge. This nomination was a personal decision by Benjamin Netanyahu. Ben-Gvir has sidelined professional officers, elevated individuals with little experience to senior roles, and driven standards to new lows. There is now an appeal before the Supreme Court seeking his removal on the grounds that he is effectively not obeying the law. The attorney general- whom Netanyahu is seeking to dismiss- supports the appeal. 2. This event today should not be interpreted as a policy shift in the Old City of Jerusalem. The swift Israeli backtrack reflects that. It is not a case of a policy tested and abandoned; rather, it appears that a junior officer made a discretionary call- amid fears of an Iranian ballistic missile strike- that if there were restrictions on events in the Old City, even the Patriarch and a small entourage would not be allowed entry. 3. This government- again, with Ben-Gvir and Netanyahu’s tacit backing- is the most hostile to other religions since the state’s founding. This is also evident in the erosion of the status quo on the Temple Mount. The former police chief of Jerusalem was fired by Ben Gvir because he didnt agree to make changes to the status quo. Yet freedom of religion remains the law of the land. That is precisely why this story was exposed in the Israeli media and immediately became a major issue, covered as it was: because it is not the norm. Another couple of years with Ben-Gvir with the backing of the Likud, and it might become exactly that.

@PaulMason2 The “wrong side of history” argument is a structurally broken tactic. Its use reflects a misunderstanding of how history works. I’m surprised you miss the point, but then again it’s hard to hear when your fingers are jammed into your ears. I’m not angry. Just… disappointed.

This interview excerpt so effectively highlights @avilewis’ blindspot & lack of self-awareness. To say what he says w/out the slightest awareness that what he says also describes himself & his cause- possibly more accurately than his intended focus- is remarkable. #cdnpoli @NDP
Jesse Brown@JesseBrown

Reminder that @avilewis, leader of the Federal NDP, believes antisemitism is just a "narrative" forced by the "Israel lobby" and that Jews are "cartoonish narcissists," "perpetrators," "supremacists" and "crybullies" who "urgently" must be made uncomfortable.
