Erdogan says Israel ‘completely out of its mind’ in war with Hamas, must be stopped-Turkish president claims Jewish state will face justice over what he says are war crimes committed in Gaza, as he continues to avoid condemning Hamas for October 7 atrocities-By ToI Staff Today, 10:38 pm-NOV 1,23
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Tuesday said Tuesday that Israel was “completely out of its mind,” accusing it of crimes against humanity over its ongoing war against the Hamas terror group.Erdogan vowed to bring Jerusalem to justice over “crimes committed in the Gaza Strip,” and accused the United States and Europe of being complicit in them, while making no mention of Hamas’s deadly onslaught on October 7.“I believe that we should stop Israel — which looks as if it’s completely out of its mind and lost it — as soon as possible. We will ensure that those responsible for war crimes in Gaza will face justice,” he said in a statement following a cabinet meeting.Erdogan, whose government only recently restored full diplomatic ties with Israel, has massively stepped up his criticism of the country during the war. Earlier this week, he asserted that Hamas was not a terrorist organization but a liberation group of “mujahideen” fighting for its lands and people.In an address to a mass pro-Palestinian rally in Istanbul Saturday, Erdogan said that his country was making preparations to proclaim Israel a “war criminal” for its actions in Gaza.Israel said Saturday it was pulling its diplomats out of Turkey to “reassess relations” amid Erdogan’s inflammatory statements.“In light of the escalating rhetoric from Turkey, I have instructed the return of diplomatic representatives from Turkey in order to reassess Israel-Turkey relations,” Foreign Minister Eli Cohen said in a statement.Erdogan took a more cautious line in the first days after Hamas terrorists staged its October 7 massacre, during which they murdered more than 1,400 people in southern Israel, the majority of them civilians, and seized at least 245 hostages. Four have since been released by Hamas and one has been rescued by security forces.But Erdogan has become much more vocal as the reported death toll from Israel’s military response has grown. He has not officially condemned Hamas’s slaughter of civilians — an attitude that has drawn ire from Israeli ministers.The Hamas-controlled health ministry in Gaza says that Israel has killed over 8,500 people in its campaign, mainly civilians. The figures cannot be independently verified and are believed to include many slain terrorists, as well as victims of misfired Palestinian rockets. Israel says some 1,500 terrorists were killed in Israel following the October 7 attack.Anti-Israel banners and graffiti, along with Palestinian flags, have become commonplace across Istanbul, as many of its citizens fume over Israel’s response to the massacre. Antisemitic incidents have also spiked in the country, too.Israel was a long-time regional ally of Turkey before Erdogan came to power, but ties imploded after a 2010 Israeli commando raid on the Gaza-bound Mavi Marmara ship, part of a blockade-busting flotilla, that left dead 10 Turkish activists who attacked IDF soldiers aboard the ship.Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Erdogan repeatedly aimed brickbats at each other in the ensuing years, including mutual charges of genocide. In July 2014, Erdogan accused the Jewish state of “keeping Hitler’s spirit alive” during a war with Gaza.Ties later saw a moderate improvement, but both countries withdrew their ambassadors in 2018 amid violence in Gaza and the Trump administration’s relocation of its embassy to Jerusalem.Facing hardening diplomatic isolation and economic woes, Erdogan began to publicly display an openness toward rapprochement in December 2020. In August of last year, Israel and Turkey announced a full renewal of diplomatic ties.In late September, Erdogan met with Netanyahu in New York for their first known sit-down and the two enthusiastically discussed avenues of cooperation. President Isaac Herzog was hosted by Erdogan last March in Ankara — the first high-level Israeli visit since 2008 — and Foreign Minister Cohen met the Turkish leader in February. Then-prime minister Yair Lapid met with Erdogan in New York during last year’s General Assembly.At the same time, Turkey maintains deep ties with Hamas. Erdogan has been in close contact with the Hamas leadership since the start of the war, and has allowed the terror group to operate from an office in Istanbul for over a decade, insisting that it only hosts the group’s political wing. However, in 2020, Israel provided Turkish intelligence with evidence that members of Hamas’s military wing operate in the office, under the supervision of Beirut-based Saleh al-Arouri.From that office, Hamas terrorists have allegedly planned terror attacks against Israel and devised ways to transfer funds to the terror group’s activists in the West Bank.In an interview with Turkish TV earlier this month, Qatar-based former Hamas leader Khaled Mashaal said he has “great respect for Turkey,” adding that “Turkey should say ‘stop’” to Israel, according to Al-Monitor. The former leader has repeatedly met with Erdogan over the years, and in an address to members of Erdogan’s party in 2014, he said he hoped to “liberate Palestine and Jerusalem” with them.A recent poll showed that the majority of Turkish citizens want Erdogan to remain neutral or to mediate in the war.
Biden to Jordan king: ‘Critical to ensure Palestinians aren’t forcibly displaced outside Gaza’By AFP-OCT 31,23
The White House says that US President Joe Biden spoke Tuesday with the leader of key US partner Jordan, where US Secretary of State Blinken has visited multiple times since Hamas launched its October 7 attack on Israel.Biden and King Abdullah II “discussed urgent mechanisms to stem violence, calm rhetoric, and reduce regional tensions,” a White House statement says.It adds that the two leaders “agreed that it is critical to ensure that Palestinians are not forcibly displaced outside of Gaza” and that Biden had “confirmed unwavering US support for Jordan and His Majesty’s leadership.”
Palestinians report ‘complete interruption’ of phone and internet services in Gaza
The Palestine Telecommunications Company, Paltel, says that there has again been “a complete interruption of all communications and internet services” in the Gaza Strip, as Israel moves forward with its offensive in the enclave against Hamas terrorists.In a statement on the social media platform X, Paltel says that international access has been severed.
Cornell student to face federal charges for threats against Jewish students-By AP
ITHACA, New York — A Cornell University student has been arrested and accused of posting threatening statements online about Jewish students at the school, law enforcement officials say.Patrick Dai, 21, a junior from Pittsford, New York, is charged in a federal criminal complaint with posting threats to kill or injure another using interstate communications, according to a joint announcement from the US Attorney’s office, FBI, New York State police and Cornell University Police.It’s not immediately clear if Dai has hired an attorney. The federal courts website has not yet been updated with the case. Dai did not respond to a Facebook message and his Cornell email address cannot be immediately accessed.The charge carries a possible five-year prison sentence, officials say.The menacing messages, posted over the weekend on a forum about fraternities and sororities, alarmed students at the Ivy League school in upstate New York. The anonymous threats came amid a spike of antisemitic and anti-Muslim rhetoric appearing on social media during the ongoing Israel-Hamas war.Dai is scheduled to appear Wednesday in federal court in Syracuse, New York, before a United States Magistrate Judge.Joel M. Malina, vice president for university relations at Cornell University, says the school was grateful for the quick work of the FBI.“We remain shocked by and condemn these horrific, antisemitic threats and believe they should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law,” Malina says in a statement. “We know that our campus community will continue to support one another in the days ahead.”
Iran warns proxy groups like the Houthis could expand operations against Israel-By Agencies and ToI Staff
Iran’s mission to the UN warns that allied militias like the Houthi rebels in Yemen could expand their operations against Israel.“The warnings from Iran regarding the initial days of the Gaza civilian casualties highlighted a concern: if these atrocities were not halted, they could incite public outrage and exhaust the patience of the resistance movements,” the Iranian mission says in a statement to the Associated Press. “These concerns can be averted and the responsibility lies squarely in the hands of the American administration to halt the transgressions perpetuated by the Israeli regime.”The statement comes after the Houthis claimed responsibility for a missile fired at Eilat on Tuesday that was shot down by the Israeli military. Hours later, the Israel Defense Forces announced that it again intercepted an “aerial threat” near Eilat.Israel has also been hitting targets in Lebanon in response to attacks by the Iran-backed Hezbollah terror group and allied Palestinian factions, with the military saying that it carried out strikes overnight after a surface-to-air missile was fired at an Israeli drone.
UN rights official says Israel-Hamas war emboldens Iranian ‘repression’According to Javaid Rehman, Tehran believes it has ‘deflected internal criticism’ by ‘becoming or claiming to become the cheerleaders… of the Palestinian movement’
By AFP and ToI Staff Today, 5:55 am 0-OCT 31,23
WASHINGTON — The UN special rapporteur on human rights in Iran said Tuesday that the Israel-Hamas war has emboldened “repression” inside the country, whose ruling clerics have championed the Palestinian terrorists.Javaid Rehman, a human rights expert given a mandate from the Human Rights Council in Geneva, said that the Islamic Republic was responding to a loss of credibility after mass protests set off by the September 2022 death of Mahsa Amini, an Iranian woman detained by police for failing to obey the strict public dress code.“They were already planning further repression,” Rehman said at a Washington roundtable hosted by the National Union for Democracy in Iran, an advocacy group.“In terms of the current crisis, they feel even more emboldened because they believe that they have deflected internal criticism, and the internal repression, through becoming or claiming to become the cheerleaders… of the Palestinian movement,” he said.Iranian leaders have repeatedly issued warnings to Israel, with Yemen’s Iranian-backed Houthi rebels claiming to have fired drones or ballistic missiles at the country in three separate operations, and Lebanon’s Hezbollah firing missiles into Israel’s north.The recent death of 17-year-old Armita Garawand has revived memories for some Iranians of Amini’s death.Garawand was severely wounded in an incident on the Tehran metro on October 1 in what activists have described as an altercation with female police officers who had apprehended her for failing to wear the obligatory Islamic headscarf.This has been strongly denied by Iranian officials who insist she collapsed and hurt herself as a result of low blood pressure.In this image from surveillance video aired by Iranian state television, women pull Armita Geravand from a train car on the Tehran Metro in Tehran, Iran, October 1, 2023. (Iranian state television/ AP) Israel has launched raids and air strikes on Gaza since October 7, when Hamas terrorists crossed from Gaza and attacked Israeli communities and military posts, killing around 1,400 people, mostly civilians, and taking some 240 hostages.Since then, Israel has responded with an unrelenting bombardment of Gaza, which the Hamas-run health ministry says has killed more than 8,500 people, nearly half of them children. Those figures cannot be independently verified and are believed to include terrorists and Palestinian civilians killed by misfired rockets.

US presses Jerusalem to release Ramallah's frozen tax funds-Blinken to visit Israel on Friday, says ‘revitalized’ PA should govern Gaza after war-Stance by secretary of state marks first time idea publicly uttered by Biden administration, which has been floating it privately with regional partners since October 7-By ToI Staff Today, 1:31 am 16-
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Tuesday that a “revitalized” Palestinian Authority should retake control of Gaza if Israel succeeds in its goal of toppling Hamas, but that regional partners and international agencies could play an interim role.The comments by Blinken during testimony before the Senate Appropriations Committee marked the first time the Biden administration has publicly declared its desire for the PA to return to the Gaza Strip, after privately raising the idea with regional partners since the outbreak of the Israel-Hamas war.Hours after the hearing — which included repeated interruptions by several dozen far-left protesters calling for a ceasefire — an Israeli official confirmed to The Times of Israel that Blinken will arrive in Tel Aviv on Friday for his second visit since the Hamas terror group launched its deadly shock assault over three weeks ago.“At some point, what would make the most sense would be for an effective and revitalized Palestinian Authority to have governance and ultimately security responsibility for Gaza,” Blinken told the Senate hearing.Hamas ousted the PA from Gaza in 2007 following bloody fighting, a year after winning a plurality of the vote in Palestinian legislative elections.“Whether you can get there in one step is a big question that we have to look at. And if you can’t, then there are other temporary arrangements that may involve a number of other countries in the region,” Blinken said. “It may involve international agencies that would help provide for both security and governance.”Hamas terrorists were looking to slaughter Jews, they perpetrated their worst atrocities in communities actively working to advance Israeli-Palestinian peace. Listen to @SecBlinken pic.twitter.com/huHTLRiNTb— Eli Kowaz (@elikowaz) October 31, 2023-The top American diplomat said there cannot be a “reversion of the status quo with Hamas running Gaza.”“We also can’t have — and the Israelis start with this proposition themselves — Israel running or controlling Gaza,” he said.Returning the Palestinian Authority to Gaza appears highly difficult to implement, given the historically weak state of the PA. The governing body in the West Bank has been plagued by corruption, has lost face among Palestinians for cooperating with Israel and has seen international support shrink for rejecting peace offers and continuing to pay stipends to Palestinian security prisoners.Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office insists that it is not currently holding formal talks regarding its “day-after” strategy and is solely focused on toppling Hamas. “All talk of decisions to hand over the Gaza Strip to the Palestinian Authority or any other party is a lie,” his office said in a statement on October 20.Critics of Netanyahu have accused him of strengthening Hamas over the past 15 years in order to divide the Palestinian factions and weaken the more moderate PA, which recognizes Israel and supports a two-state solution.More recently, the Likud-run Intelligence Ministry drafted a policy paper arguing that the PA’s return to Gaza would amount to a victory for the Palestinian national movement that would pose a danger to Israel.Ramallah, for its part, has asserted it has no interest in returning to Gaza unless as part of a diplomatic initiative that unites the enclave with the West Bank and revamps the peace process with Israel, which would be supported by the Biden administration but have little backing in the current Israeli government.While working to boost the cash-strapped PA’s international standing, Washington has pushed back against a decision announced Sunday by Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich to halt the transfer of Palestinian tax revenues to the PA, claiming that Ramallah supported the October 7 massacre.Due to the PA’s lack of statehood status, Israel is responsible for collecting customs duties and other tax revenues on its behalf. It transfers them to Ramallah on a monthly basis, providing funds that amount to nearly 65 percent of the Palestinian annual budget, which is roughly NIS 18 billion ($5.27 billion).Commenting on Smotrich’s decision during Tuesday’s hearing, Blinken said the US has asked Israel to release the Palestinian funds.The message has been passed along privately as well, with Washington demanding an explanation and arguing the move could further destabilize the West Bank, which has been rattled by rising settler violence since the October 7 massacres.“The Palestinian Authority is doing everything it can to keep security and stability in the West Bank. It is vastly under-sourced. This is another aspect of the problem,” Blinken said. The US leaned hard on the PA in recent weeks for its security forces to continue their efforts to combat terror in the territory.In justifying his decision to freeze Ramallah’s funds, Smotrich said the PA did not condemn the October 7 attack. The Palestinian Authority has not denounced Hamas, while expressing opposition to the targeting of all civilians. Blinken’s scheduled trip to Israel later this week follows his visit on October 12, when he held a nearly eight-hour meeting with Netanyahu’s war cabinet to kick off a regional tour that included stops in five other countries, as he sought to build a coalition against Hamas while coordinating with allies to secure the delivery of humanitarian aid into Gaza and the release of the hostages.That trip appeared to have had limited success, as Arab countries have not taken well to the continued US support for Israel’s ongoing military campaign in the Strip. US diplomacy was integral, however, in coaxing Israel and Egypt to begin allowing humanitarian aid to enter the enclave 10 days ago.
Jewish Columbia students demand university take action against rising antisemitism-At press conference, group of undergrads say many ‘don’t feel physically safe on campus,’ after Israeli student assaulted, swastika found in bathroom and some protesters back Hamas-By Luke Tress Today, 12:57 am-NOV 1,23
New York Jewish Week via JTA — Jewish students at Columbia University said at a press conference on Monday that they and their peers on campus had been subjected to a series of antisemitic incidents in recent weeks, including death threats, and demanded the university administration take action to protect Jews on campus.The press conference came after a series of antisemitic and anti-Israel actions at the school in the wake of Hamas’s October 7 assault on Israel, in which over 1,400 people were killed, most of them civilians, and over 240 seized as hostages, leading Israel to declare war on the terror group.An Israeli student was assaulted in the days after the Hamas onslaught in what police charged as a hate crime. A statement signed by a range of student groups placed blame for the October 7 attack on Israel. After a swastika was found in a bathroom in the school’s International Affairs Building last Friday, Keren Yarhi-Milo, the dean of the School of International and Public Affairs, said, “I am shocked and dismayed that anyone would promote this most notorious symbol of antisemitism, hatred and racial supremacy.”Dozens of Columbia faculty in a letter published on Monday called the Hamas attack a “military action” linked to Israel’s occupation.Police and Jewish security groups have reported a spike in antisemitic incidents since the start of the war in the New York region and around the country. Recent incidents in New York, where Jews are targeted by hate crimes far more than any other group, have ranged from physical assaults to graffiti and harassment.Monday’s press conference took place outside the gates of the school’s campus in Morningside Heights and did not appear to be organized by a student group. At least three of the four student speakers, however, have spoken to the media in recent weeks about antisemitism on campus, and the event was publicized by a professional public relations agency. Around 20 students attended.students said the school’s administration did not take sufficient action after receiving reports of antisemitism, and has not held perpetrators accountable.“As a result of this inaction, there are Jewish students who do not feel physically safe on campus,” Noa Fay, a senior at Barnard College, said in a statement.Among the incidents the students listed were the swastika graffiti, students carrying signs saying “resistance is not terrorism” during an on-campus walkout and, at Columbia’s law school, a student saying “F— the Jews” to a visibly Jewish student. They also said Jews were targeted with antisemitic tropes in group chats. Reached by the New York Jewish Week, the university did not confirm or deny any of the incidents.“With my own eyes I have witnessed Columbia students resort to based bigotry,” junior Yoni Kurtz said, according to the New York Post. “I’ve seen them parrot foul antisemitic tropes, I’ve seen them label visibly Muslim students as terrorists, I’ve seen them roar in approval for calls of violence against civilians, and I’ve seen them take to social media nearly every day of the last three weeks to call for each other’s deaths.”The students demanded the university clarify its policies on identity-based bigotry, including antisemitism; enforce those policies; devote more funding and staff to supporting student victims; and create spaces to bring students together from different backgrounds.“The university’s lack of a meaningful, practical response to these acts of blatant antisemitism is incredibly disheartening,” said sophomore Jessie Brenner. “Students of all religious identities, political affiliations and ethnicities deserve to feel safe on campus and supported by the administration.”The activists also demanded the administration publicly condemn Hamas and treat students who support the terror group differently from those who support Palestinian rights. The administration has released several statements since October 7, but none has mentioned the terror group.“If these measures are not taken, we fear that campus will only continue to become more divisive, more volatile and more unsafe,” said Kurtz.Following the press conference, the university told the New York Jewish Week, “Antisemitism or any other form of hate are antithetical to Columbia’s values and can lead to acts of harassment or violence. When this type of speech is unlawful or violates university rules, it will not be tolerated.”A university spokesperson added, “We are using every available tool to keep our community safe and that includes protecting our Jewish students from antisemitic discrimination or harassment.”The university has made a series of statements since the October 7 attack, which has led to a spike in antisemitism worldwide. Two days after the attack, Columbia University President Minouche Shafik said that she was “devastated by the horrific attack on Israel.”In a separate statement earlier this month, Shafik said, “Some are using this moment to spread antisemitism, Islamophobia, bigotry against Palestinians and Israelis.” She added, “I have been disheartened that some of this abhorrent rhetoric is coming from members of our community, including members of our faculty and staff.”On October 12, three Columbia administrators released a statement on the conflict, condemning antisemitism and Islamophobia and saying, “We reject and will not tolerate hate speech, violence, or the threat or any acts of violence in our community. ”Jewish students have also faced threats on other campuses in New York City and state. Last week, Jewish students at New York City’s Cooper Union college sheltered in the school’s library as pro-Palestinian demonstrators pounded on the door and shouted slogans. On Sunday, police at Cornell University were called to the school’s kosher dining hall, and the campus Hillel warned students to stay away from it, after anonymous antisemitic posts on a Greek life website that included threats to “shoot up” the building and kill and rape Jewish students. A suspect was arrested on Tuesday.War erupted after Hamas’s October 7 massacre, which saw some 2,500 terrorists burst across the border into Israel from the Gaza Strip, killing some 1,400 people and seizing some 240 hostages of all ages. The vast majority of those killed as gunmen seized border communities were civilians — including babies, children and the elderly. Entire families were executed in their homes, and over 260 were slaughtered at an outdoor festival, many amid horrific acts of brutality by the terrorists, in what US President Joe Biden has highlighted as “the worst massacre of the Jewish people since the Holocaust.”The Hamas-controlled health ministry in Gaza says that Israel has killed over 8,500 people in its campaign to destroy Hamas.
