David Lega, ordförande i Vänskapsförbundet Sverige-Israel, är nöjd med bokningen:– Jonathan har en enorm kompetens, erfarenhet och kunskap kring konflikterna vi just nu ser i Mellanöstern nu, inte minst sedan Hamas terrorattack den 7 oktober 2023. #Bokmässan #Israel #Yttrandefrihet
Sweden’s Minister for Social Affairs, Jakob Forssmed, came to my home to talk about the situation for Jews in Sweden and across Europe. I gave him the new EJA and WJC report on the issues that matter most for Jewish life in Sweden, and where every party stands ahead of the https://t.co/JF5SEauqzA #JewishCommunity #Sweden #SocialAffairs #SE #EU
This was antisemitism. Four men have admitted burning four Jewish volunteer ambulances outside a London synagogue. They didn’t target them by accident. They targeted them because they were Jewish. When even an ambulance becomes a target simply because it is Jewish, we should #antisemitism #JewishCommunity #HateCrime #UK
The true measure of our democracy is not how many politicians with security protection dare to wear a Star of David. It is how many Jews dare to wear one without it. Simona Mohamsson wore a Star of David during a party leaders’ debate. The threats followed. Now Sweden’s #Democracy #JewishIdentity #FreedomOfExpression #SE
We know that standing with us comes at a cost. So let’s make sure our support is heard just as loudly. They murdered people who were dancing at a music festival. But they cannot kill the music, and we will dance again. It costs nothing to stay silent. It takes something to #StandWithUs #MusicNeverDies #SupportTheCause #Therearenospecificcountrycodesmentionedinthetweet.
Heder till Simona Mohamsson för att hon markerar mot antisemitismen. Men att bära davidsstjärnan är första steget, inte det sista. Judar i Sverige behöver både symboler och handling. Politikerna måste vara kvar även när symbolerna är undanlagda. #antisemitism #Davidstjärna #JudarISverige #SE
What does “globalize the intifada” mean in practice? Iran just gave us an answer. A new group called HAYI, widely assessed as an IRGC proxy, has claimed 18 attacks in Europe since March. Twelve targeted Jewish institutions. This is not street protest. It is a foreign regime #GlobalizeTheIntifada #Iran #JewishSafety #IR #EU
What is worse: a man who wears “October 7” through an Amsterdam supermarket, or the store full of people who let him? The answer is: both. He is celebrating the worst massacre of Jews since the Holocaust. He is not hiding. They are not objecting. That is the whole problem. #Antisemitism #HumanRights #Amsterdam #NL #IL
The new Mecca pact between Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Pakistan is being called a blow to the Abraham Accords. Maybe it is. But Europe was once nations that had slaughtered each other for centuries. They built peace anyway, from the ruins. The Middle East will not be different #MeccaPact #AbrahamAccords #MiddleEastPeace #SA #TR #PK #EU
Something is happening in New York that should worry everyone who cares about democracy. Mayor Zohran Mamdani refused to condemn “globalize the intifada,” calling that “policing speech.” He then named a judicial panel he called “truly representative” of the city. Not one Jewish https://t.co/Y0gztLeQ7N #NewYork #Democracy #Intifada #US
Physical attacks on Jews in Britain have reached a record high. Up 82% in just six months. The latest @CST_UK report shows antisemitic incidents up 21% this year, with attacks in schools up 59%. As CST rightly says, these are attacks on British Jews. They are also attacks on https://t.co/oaa5fvY8Kk #Antisemitism #BritishJews #HateCrime #GB
Taiwan isn’t just running civil defence drills. It’s rehearsing survival. Weapons production is being relocated. Civilian factories are preparing to support the military. Even mobile networks are being deliberately slowed to test how people would communicate if China cut #Taiwan #Survival #Military准备 #TW #CN
A BBC investigation lays it out plainly. Iran is using a Swedish crime network to attack Jewish and Israeli targets across Europe. And it recruits children, some as young as 13, to do the killing. Lawmakers and police everywhere still treat these as local, one-off incidents. #Iran #Terrorism #ChildSoldiers #IR #SE #IL #EU
A week ago Frans Timmermans, former Vice-President of the European Commission, compared right-wing Israelis to Nazis. He’s now Minister of State of the Netherlands, an honorary title he received just this month. Dutch Jewish organisations are asking a fair question: can someone #FransTimmermans #Netherlands #HolocaustMemorial #NL
