Spot on from my friend and colleague @USAmbUN
ICJ ad hoc "judge" Navi Pillay is tipping the scales on the ICJ’s current proceedings on Myanmar, intending to lower the legal threshold for proving genocide so that weakened and false standard can later be weaponized against American and allied soldiers whenever they raise a finger against terrorists that hide behind civilians. Pillay: We see your agenda and we'll be watching the ICJ’s handling of these proceedings very closely. As our actions against the ICC demonstrate, we will not allow globalist, faux-judges to weaponize the law against our troops, undermine our sovereignty, or put American lives at risk.
The Nobel Committee has disgraced itself by awarding the Peace Prize to Pillay. What a shameful choice to "honor" someone who represents an "international community" with a leftist, globalist, antisemitic agenda.
President Trump is showing a better way, by actually ENDING WARS, bringing hostages HOME, and making PEACE.

Addressing a roomful of Special Envoys for Combating Antisemitism in Dublin last week, @StateSEAS Ambassador Rabbi Yehuda Kaploun asked an important question.
Can you say that your government is, in fact, following policies combating antisemitism?
It begs the larger question of how Western democracies are working to protect their Jewish communities – and protect the very concept of a democratic society itself.
WJC’s 15th SECCA Forum, held this year in Dublin, was made possible thanks to the support of the @EU_Commission.

Today, we hosted a historic event at the Embassy of Argentina in Washington, D.C., under Argentina’s 2026 Presidency of the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA), reaffirming our country’s unwavering commitment to Holocaust remembrance and the fight against antisemitism.
We had the distinct honor of welcoming President Javier Milei, accompanied by Secretary General of the Presidency Karina Milei, to Argentina's home in Washington for the first time. In his remarks, President Milei pledged "zero tolerance for antisemitism," underscoring Argentina's firm commitment to preserving historical memory, defending freedom and democratic values, and standing alongside Israel and the Jewish people.
We extend our special gratitude to U.S. Secretary of Energy Chris Wright and Ambassador Rabbi Yehuda Kaploun, U.S. Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism, for their participation and meaningful remarks, reflecting the strength of the partnership between Argentina and the United States in advancing this shared cause.
We were also honored to hear remarks from Argentina’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, International Trade and Worship Pablo Quirno; Marcelo Mindlin, Chair of Argentina’s 2026 IHRA Presidency; and Paraguay’s Minister of Foreign Affairs Rubén Ramírez Lezcano.
As Ambassador Oxenford emphasized in his opening remarks, “Argentina has established itself as one of the clearest and strongest voices internationally in the fight against antisemitism.”
In a significant diplomatic milestone, Paraguay and the Dominican Republic announced their intention to join the IHRA, reflecting Argentina’s regional leadership and marking an important step toward expanding the Alliance’s presence in Latin America.
Today's gathering reaffirmed that Holocaust remembrance must translate into concrete commitments, stronger partnerships, and collective action against antisemitism across our hemisphere.
Argentina will continue to stand firmly alongside those who defend freedom, democracy, and human dignity. In the face of antisemitism and hatred, there can be no room for silence, indifference, or neutrality.

The charge of genocide is fueling antisemitism. As malicious actors weaponize the term and endanger Jews everywhere, meticulous use of the charge is essential. Read more by Chairman Jeffrey Miller (@JeffMillerCA2TX) and Amb. Eizenstat. (@EizenstatStuart). foxnews.com/opinion/weaponiz…

Disgusting and shameful to use October 7th as an excuse to repeat Hamas’ talking points. The terrorist enemies that seek to destroy us will not prevail.
We stand with the Jewish people and we pray for the victims, their families and the survivors.
This day is profoundly painful for so many New Yorkers. It marks three years since the horrific war crimes of October 7. On that day, Hamas killed more than 1,100 Israelis and abducted 251 others. We grieve alongside our many friends and neighbors who still carry that unthinkable loss.
The suffering did not begin nor end that day. It instead continued through the Israeli government’s devastating, ongoing genocide in Gaza, in which it has killed more than 74,000 Palestinians—including more than 21,000 children. Even since the so-called ceasefire, more than 1,400 Palestinians have been killed. That suffering has intensified with every Israeli bomb dropped on ambulances waiting outside hospitals, every drone strike targeting a residential building or journalist, and every shipment of food aid turned away at a border crossing. Many New Yorkers are reckoning with this unbearable grief, and we mourn alongside them – all while knowing that our tax dollars fund these war crimes.
Three years later, we must refuse to accept a world in which occupation and apartheid continue, where war crimes are met with impunity, and our federal government continues its complicity with every arms shipment.
To honor the dead, we must fight for a world in which every person can live with freedom, safety, and dignity.

I was honored to be joined by Paraguay’s Vice President @AllianaPedro and @POTUS Donald Trump’s Special Envoy on Antisemitism, @StateSEAS Amb. Rabbi Yehuda Kaploun, in addressing a special memorial ceremony for the victims of October 7, attended by ambassadors from around the world.
Three years later, our enemies -Iran, Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis - still openly seek Israel’s destruction.
We will never lose sight of what our enemies still plan to do.

I commend UK authorities for their swift action to avert a terrorist attack in Manchester over Yom Kippur. We must continue to stand together with Jewish communities in the face of rising antisemitism. It is deeply concerning that the two accused Iranian nationals used illegal routes to come to the UK. This kind of threat is why @POTUS @realDonaldTrump has taken a strong approach to ending illegal migration to the U.S.

The Prince Group and other transnational criminal organizations force victims of human trafficking to run their online schemes. They target Americans and steal billions from us every year. The Trump Administration is taking action to hold them accountable. state.gov/releases/office-of…

No conspiracy theory needed.
@Pink just stood up against Antisemites like @macklemore and I applaud her for that and followed her on X.
I’m grateful to my pugilistic patriot of a colleague, @StateSEAS Ambassador Rabbi Kaploun, for pointing out her bravery.

FBI New York recently met with Ambassador Kaploun, the U.S. Department of State Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism. As part of our priority to rebuild public trust, the FBI works alongside our federal, state, and local partners through outreach and information sharing. We interact regularly with faith-based communities, including the Jewish community, to make sure they understand potential threats and know how to communicate with us when concerns arise.
Our outreach is about connection, not crisis. We want every community to know the FBI is a partner they can reach out to long before a concern becomes a threat.

Today, @USAttyPirro announced the disruption of an ongoing scheme by Hamas — a designated Foreign Terrorist Organization — to raise funds for terrorist operations.
The court-authorized seizures allowed the FBI to seize $560,000 in cryptocurrency and take control of domains and servers that Hamas used to raise money and recruit supporters.

Yesterday's terrorist designations targeted the digital infrastructure that violent Antifa cells and other far-left militants use to conduct violent activity in the U.S. and around the world.
There will be no refuge for violent extremists who wage war on our civilization.
