🚨 BREAKING: 🇫🇷 Paris, France | Oct. 18: A synagogue in Paris’ 19th arrondissement was vandalized amid nationwide riots.
Synagogues targeted, public buildings set ablaze, police stations attacked, shops looted.
They came for the Jews first.
Now they’re coming for France.

I met @BarackObama twice; he is an eloquent orator and a sharp debater. Yet, despite his advantages, I challenge him to debate me in my home town Bnei-brak in front of my grandfather's
land-purchase documents of 1924, as we examine ancient parchments that mention the Biblical town of Bnei-brak existing 3,000 years ago [Joshua 19:45]. @AkaLazarus @ShMMor @DrMichaelOren
It's not about whether @BarackObama is aware of the Jewish historical connection to Israel; it's about what he wants people in 2026 to believe and how he wants them to act toward Israel. The latter is obscene, to say the least, if not outright genocidal. @AkaLazarus @ShMMor @faniaoz

✈️ WATCH: Israeli Comedy Show Eretz Nehederet Turns Flydubai Terror Attack Into Hilarious “Fauda in the Skies” Parody Featuring Hero Israeli Plumber
Israel’s Eretz Nehederet has given the Flydubai hijacking ordeal the Fauda treatment. Its sketch, “Fauda in the Skies,” draws on the story of Yaniv Hayoun, the Israeli plumber who helped thwart the attack.
Comedian Eran Zarachovitz impersonates Lior Raz as a plumber turned action hero, calling for wrenches to overpower the terrorist. Then, in the middle of the airborne rescue, he announces that he needs to get a part from his car.
The show promoted the spoof with a suitably reassuring caption: “The skies have never been safer.”
I've learned more from these two than any two people I can think of...

Genocide!
Every autumn, around 40,000 to 50,000 Great White Pelicans migrate through Israel from Europe to Africa.
Israel is their last major feeding stop before crossing the Sinai Desert, with each bird consuming roughly 1 kg of fish daily.
To prevent the birds from raiding commercial fish farms, Israeli authorities deliver truckloads of fish to designated feeding sites, including the Viker Reservoir in central Israel.
The birds feed, regain energy and continue their journey south.
Per @continetti :
"It shows that costs have risen most sharply in areas where government is deeply involved—healthcare, education, child care and housing. By contrast, prices fall in areas where government’s footprint is light and people are free to trade. Think cars, clothing, cellphones and other personal electronics."
I’m beginning to think I might have made a mistake when I went with Shai Agassi over Elon Musk in 2007.
Highest GDP growth in OECD
Highest R&D spend in OECD

Yea, what a failing country.

Antizionism is a racist hate movement.
🇮🇹 100 Jewish early childhood educators canceled their trip to a professional conference in Italy after they were told to sign a statement condemning Israel.
🇨🇭 An Israeli film was excluded from a queer film festival in Switzerland after the filmmaker was subject to questioning about his beliefs about Israel.
🇬🇧 A British comedian was kicked out of a writing group after being questioned on his beliefs about Israel.
🇮🇪 An Irish hotel cancelled the reservations of 70 people who were attending a conference on combatting antisemitism.
These are just from the past week. Caring about Palestinians is not an excuse to be silent when antisemitism is being normalized across the world.
Quite the NATO ally…
Turkey: Erdogan's police took control of the Halk TV channel this morning – the most popular economic channel in Turkey, linked to the opposition.
Early in the morning, police stormed the channel's offices, the broadcast was interrupted, and a "trusted government representative" was appointed, who now controls the channel.
The official reason given by Erdogan's police: the channel committed economic crimes.
