18 And another angel came out from the altar, which had power over fire; and cried with a loud cry to him that had the sharp sickle, saying, Thrust in thy sharp sickle, and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth; for her grapes are fully ripe.
19 And the angel thrust in his sickle into the earth, and gathered the vine of the earth, and cast it into the great winepress of the wrath of God.

Netanyahu to speak with Gallant after row over post-war Gaza, again vows no PA role-Asked if he still trusts defense minister, PM responds evasively: ‘What I have to say to him I’ll first say one-on-one’; right-wing protesters outside Kirya urge Gallant’s ouster-By ToI Staff Today, 6:37 am-MAY 17,24

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Thursday that he will soon speak face-to-face with Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, who demanded a day earlier that the premier publicly rule out the possibility of Israeli military or civilian rule in Gaza, suggesting instead that “Palestinian entities” and other “international actors” should govern the Strip.While visiting an area close to the Gaza border, Netanyahu was asked by a reporter if he still trusts Gallant and whether they can still work together, but responded evasively.“If you’re talking about what the defense minister said yesterday, then what I have to say to him I’ll first say one-on-one, and not here,” he said.Asked if that meeting will come soon, the prime minister said, “Absolutely.”Netanyahu’s public disagreement with Gallant came about after the premier dismissed any discussions of the “day after” in Gaza as meaningless until Hamas is defeated.Hours later, in a televised address, the defense minister told Netanyahu that he must take “tough decisions” to advance non-Hamas governance of Gaza, whatever the personal or political cost because the gains of the war are being eroded and Israel’s long-term security is at stake.Gallant warned in his address that he will not consent to Israeli civil or military governance of Gaza, and that governance by non-Hamas Palestinian entities, accompanied by international actors, is in Israel’s interest.Netanyahu quickly retorted that he was “not prepared to switch from Hamastan to Fatahstan,” referencing the Fatah-dominated Palestinian Authority.Netanyahu again echoed that same sentiment on Thursday, after a reporter said Gallant was essentially advocating for the return of the Palestinian Authority to Gaza.Repeating his frequent summation that the PA “funds terrorism, supports terrorism, educates for terrorism,” Netanyahu accused it of “running a global campaign against us — at the World Court in The Hague and at all the institutions of the UN that are coming to choke us.”Letting the PA back into Gaza “after what happened there” would be “a prize for terror,” he said, warning that what happened in 2007 when Hamas booted out the Palestinian Authority and seized control of the Gaza Strip would happen again should it be allowed to return.“We’re not making that mistake again…. If somebody wants to bring in the PA, they should say so clearly,” he said, referring to Gallant’s accusation that he refuses to make decisions on a post-Hamas Gaza. “That’s a decision I refuse to make.”In the wake of Gallant’s statement, some right-wing lawmakers have urged Netanyahu to fire the defense minister for what would be the second time in 14 months.In late March 2023, Netanyahu fired Gallant for warning that the divides in Israeli society caused by the coalition’s judicial overhaul plans posed a “clear, immediate and tangible threat to the security of the state.” His termination was met with public outrage and was short-lived as he was rehired two weeks later.A group of right-wing Israelis staged a protest outside the Kirya military headquarters in Tel Aviv on Thursday evening, calling for Gallant’s removal from government. Several protesters sported Likud flags — the party to which Gallant belongs — while others held signs calling for his termination.At the same time as pressure mounts to formulate a plan for post-Hamas Gaza, the Israeli offensive in Rafah, where four of Hamas’s six remaining battalions are believed to be located, has continued inching forward despite deep misgivings from Israel’s allies.Speaking to IDF troops on the Gaza border, Netanyahu said on Thursday that the offensive in Rafah was “critical.”“This battle, of which you are an integral part, is a battle that will decide many things in this campaign,” he said, telling the soldiers that Rafah was the lifeline on which the terror group depends.Gallant too, addressed the Rafah operation in a conversation with troops on Thursday, vowing that the operation would intensify.“Hamas is not an organization that can replenish itself now,” he said. “It has no reserves, no ability to produce weapons, no supplies, no armaments; it can’t treat its wounded terrorists, and this means that we’ll go and wear them down.”Israel’s war cabinet — comprised of Netanyahu, Gallant and minister Benny Gantz — were slated to meet on Thursday evening to discuss the Rafah offensive. According to a report from Channel 12, the meeting was due to focus on mapping out a wider offensive, pending US approval of such a move.Among others, the US and EU have warned Israel against launching a full-scale offensive inside the southernmost Gaza city, the population of which swelled to more than one million people throughout the months of war as civilians fled the fighting.Israel hopes to bring US National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan around to the idea of an expanded operation in Rafah when he visits at the start of next week, Channel 12 reported on Thursday. However, Washington said earlier this week it had received assurances that the offensive wouldn’t be widened before Sullivan’s visit.Also Thursday, Netanyahu was asked why, unlike the chief of staff and Shin Bet head, he has refused to state that he was responsible for the catastrophe of October 7: “The government is responsible for protecting Israel’s security. The IDF and the security branches are responsible for protecting Israel’s security,” he replied. “Clearly, there was a failure here. As for assigning responsibility, the degree of responsibility, all those things, everybody, me included, will have to give answers to tough questions.”

Spain denies port of call to ship carrying arms to Israel-Madrid’s foreign minister says this will become policy as ‘the Middle East does not need more weapons, it needs more peace’By Agencies and ToI Staff Today, 10:33 am-MAY 17,24

Spain refused permission for a ship carrying arms to Israel to dock at a Spanish port, Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Albares said on Thursday.“This is the first time we have done this because it is the first time we have detected a ship carrying a shipment of arms to Israel that wants to call at a Spanish port,” he told reporters in Brussels.“This will be a consistent policy with any ship carrying arms to Israel that wants to call at Spanish ports. The foreign ministry will systematically reject such stopovers for one obvious reason. The Middle East does not need more weapons, it needs more peace,” he added.The Spanish minister did not provide details on the ship but Transport Minister Oscar Puente said it was the Marianne Danica that had requested permission to call at the southeastern port of Cartagena on May 21.El Pais newspaper said the Danish-flagged ship was carrying 27 tons of explosive material from Madras in India to the port of Haifa in Israel.The announcement that permission had been denied comes amid a row between Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez’s Socialists and his coalition partners, the hard-left Sumar party, over another ship, the Borkum, which is due to dock in Cartagena on Friday.Pro-Palestinian groups say the Borkum is carrying arms to Israel, prompting Sumar to demand that it be turned away. But Puente said the Borkum was transporting military material to the Czech Republic, not Israel.Spain has been one of Europe’s most critical voices about Israel’s Gaza offensive and is working to rally other European capitals behind the idea of recognizing a Palestinian state.The Gaza war began on October 7 when Hamas terrorists stormed into southern Israel, murdering some 1,200 people, mostly civilians, and taking 253 hostages.The Hamas-run Gaza health ministry says more than 35,000 people in the Strip have been killed or are presumed dead in the fighting so far, though only some 24,000 fatalities have been identified at hospitals. The toll, which cannot be verified as it does not differentiate between terrorists and civilians, includes some 15,000 terror operatives Israel says it has killed in battle. Israel also says it killed some 1,000 terrorists inside Israel on October 7.

You are here-Israel ‘Eye to Eye’ Connections: Record Floods and Tornadoes-MAY 17,24

U.S. President Joe Biden and Secretary of State Anthony Blinken have been applying significant pressure on Israel, especially in April and May. They have been calling for an Israeli cease fire and hostage deal with Hamas. Moreover, Blinken has been working on continuing the U.S.-backed Israel-Saudi normalization agreement with the Saudis and preparing for two-state talks between Israel and the Palestinians. Furthermore, the Biden administration has held up the delivery of precision equipment and ammunition to Israel (JNS). While the U.S. effort was happening in Israel, the U.S. experienced the second-largest April tornado outbreak in history with 300 tornadoes. There were 929 severe weather events in the United States from April 2 to May 2, 2024.

There were 757 tornadoes in April 2011. U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice had stated publicly at the U.N. that February that the United States rejected the legitimacy of Israel communities in Judea and Samaria. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had previously said on ABC that these Israeli communities were illegitimate and called for a two-state plan―and hosted the U.S.-Islamic World Forum in Washington, D.C., April 12, 2011, which once again called for a two-state solution in Israel. She said, “Neither Israel’s future as a Jewish democratic state, nor the legitimate aspirations of Palestinians can be secured without a negotiated two state solution.” Rice and Clinton’s illegitimacy claims set the stage and became the mantra for the Obama administration. National Security Advisor Tommy Vietor said on April 4, “Not only are continued Israeli communities illegitimate; they run counter to efforts to resume direct negotiations” (Eye to Eye, 290–92).On May 1–2, 2024, while Blinken was in Israel, the Houston area (The Houston-The Woodlands-Sugar LandMSA covers 9,444 square miles, larger than New Jersey) experienced massive rains and subsequent floods, the largest floods since August 2017 and June 2001. In late August 2017 Hurricane Harvey developed quickly out of a remnant of a storm while Jared Kushner was meeting with Middle East leaders in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UAE, Jordan, Egypt, Israel and the Palestinians on the Trump two-state plan. Harvey was the second-costliest weather event in U.S. history (Eye to Eye, 394–96).On June 6, 2001, when Tropical Storm Allison hit Houston with record floods, CIA director George Tenet was in Israel negotiating a cease-fire agreement between Israel and the Palestinians.

2 hurt as barrage of 75 rockets fired at north; IDF strike on Hezbollah said to kill 3-Iron Dome intercepts dozens of rockets in major Hezbollah barrage from Lebanon; Israeli strikes came after several drones were launched from Lebanon early Friday morning-By Emanuel Fabian-Today, 3:15 pm-MAY 17,24

A major barrage of some 75 rockets was fired toward northern Israel Friday afternoon, after Israeli airstrikes in Lebanon were reported to kill three people.According to the IDF, dozens of the rockets were intercepted by the Iron Dome defense system.The Magen David Adom ambulance service said it treated two people lightly hurt after they were wounded by one of the rocket impacts in the Upper Galilee. They were taken to Ziv Medical Center in Safed, MDA said.The barrage is one of the largest carried out by Hezbollah on northern Israel amid the war.Sirens sounded in the central Golan Heights community of Katzrin and several towns closer to the Lebanon border.Katzrin is more than 20 kilometers (12 miles) from the Lebanon border.Three separate drone strikes on a coastal village in southern Lebanon earlier Friday killed three people, including two Syrian citizens, Lebanese security officials said.The strikes on the village of Najjarieh, about 40 kilometers (28 miles) north of the Israeli border, came a day after an especially intense exchange of cross-border strikes between Hezbollah and Israel.Numerous Iron Dome interceptions reported over northern Israel, following sirens in Katzrin in the central Golan Heights and several towns near the Lebanon border https://t.co/liB9YemGSC pic.twitter.com/fooc0foj41— Emanuel (Mannie) Fabian (@manniefabian) May 17, 2024-The strikes hit a vehicle, a field and a small brick factory where two Syrian workers were killed, the officials said, speaking on condition of anonymity in line with regulations.The Israeli military confirmed carrying out strikes against facilities in Najjarieh, which it said were used by a Hezbollah air defense unit. According to the Israel Defense Forces, several Hezbollah operatives were gathered at the sites in the coastal town, south of Sidon.“These compounds were used by Hezbollah’s air defense array, and posed a threat to Israeli aircraft,” the IDF said.The Lebanese man was identified as Hussein Khader Mahdi, a Hezbollah operative who was the owner of the factory. Hezbollah announced Mahdi’s death “on the road to Jerusalem,” its term for operatives slain in Israeli strikes.Mahdi’s deaths bring the terror group’s toll since the beginning of the war in the Gaza Strip to 301.The IDF said Hezbollah’s air defenses are located within “a civilian environment, while risking the lives of civilians in southern Lebanon.”“The IDF will not tolerate a violation of aerial operational freedom and will operate to defend against any threat. We warn the citizens of Lebanon to refrain from cooperation with the Hezbollah terrorist organization and emphasize that in doing so, they endanger themselves and their surroundings,” the military added.The strikes came after several drones were launched from Lebanon at the Western Galilee early Friday morning. According to the IDF, at least one of the drones was downed by air defenses over the sea and a second drone crashed near the northern community of Ga’aton.Another siren sounded shortly later, but the IDF said it was a false alarm.Hezbollah has regularly been launching explosives-laden drones into Israel.Since October 8, Hezbollah-led forces have attacked Israeli communities and military posts along the border on a near-daily basis, with the group saying it is doing so to support Gaza amid the war there.So far, the skirmishes on the border have resulted in 10 civilian deaths on the Israeli side, as well as the deaths of 14 IDF soldiers and reservists. There have also been several attacks from Syria, without any injuries.Hezbollah has named 300 members who have been killed by Israel during the ongoing skirmishes, mostly in Lebanon but some also in Syria. Mahdi’s death on Friday would raise the number to 301.Another 60 operatives from other terror groups, a Lebanese soldier, and at least 60 civilians, three of whom were journalists, have also been killed in Lebanon.Agencies contributed to this report.

After US, Canada issues its first sanctions against Israeli settlers-Four accused of instigating riots in Palestinian towns and of involvement in deaths of Palestinian civilians have been penalized-By Agencies and ToI Staff Today, 2:55 pm-MAY 17,24

Canada announced Thursday for the first time sanctions against Israeli settlers accused of committing acts of violence against Palestinians in the West Bank.The United Kingdom, France, the European Union and the United States have taken similar measures in recent months.“The rise in violence by extremist Israeli settlers against Palestinians in the West Bank is deeply troubling and poses significant risks to peace and security in the region,” Canadian Foreign Minister Melanie Joly said in the statement.“With these measures, we are sending a clear message that acts of extremist settler violence are unacceptable and that perpetrators of such violence will face consequences.”The sanctions include a ban on transactions with the settlers and on their entry into Canada.Among those targeted is David Chai Chasdai, accused of instigating a riot in the Palestinian town of Huwara, south of Nablus, leading to the death of a Palestinian civilian.Three others, Zvi Bar Yosef, Moshe Sharvit and Yinon Levi, also face US sanctions and are accused of repeatedly harassing, assaulting and threatening local Palestinians.Israel has maintained control over areas of the West Bank, home to three million Palestinians, since 1967 and around 490,000 Israeli settlers live there in communities considered illegal under international law.Settler violence in the West Bank was already at a more than 15-year high in 2023 and surged further after the Israel-Hamas war began on October 7.At least 491 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli forces or settlers across the West Bank, Palestinian authorities say, since Hamas’s October 7 attack on southern Israel, most in violent clashes with Israeli troops, but a few were shot dead by settlers during altercations.Since October 7, troops have arrested some 4,000 wanted Palestinians across the West Bank, including more than 1,700 affiliated with Hamas.

IAF to probe how half-ton bomb fell off fighter jet onto southern border town-Military announces investigation into ‘unusual’ incident after unexploded ordinance found in community near Gaza-By Emanuel Fabian-Today, 7:41 pm-MAY 17,24

The Israeli Air Force said it will carry out an “in-depth” investigation after a half-ton bomb fell off a fighter jet and landed in the Gaza border community of Yated on Friday morning.The bomb fell off a fighter jet amid operations over Gaza, with images showing it landed very close to homes.“This morning, during an attack by a fighter jet in the Rafah area, a munition fell in the community of Yated,” the military said in a statement.It noted the munition did not explode and was safely collected by Israeli forces.“Air Force technical teams arrived at the scene and began an in-depth investigation of the incident,” the statement continued, adding that the investigation will be presented to IAF chief Maj. Gen. Tomer Bar.The IDF described the incident as “unusual,” and that the circumstances surrounding it “will be examined in depth.”The strike in Rafah was carried out moments later, the military said.

Soldier slain in north Gaza as IDF battles Hamas in war’s ‘most violent’ fighting yet-Terror operatives launch massive numbers of RPGs at Israeli tanks in Jabaliya camp, an area troops did not reach in initial ground offensive-By Emanuel Fabian-Today, 6:32 pmUpdated at 7:37 pm-MAY 17,24

An Israeli soldier was killed during fighting in the northern Gaza Strip on Friday, the military announced, as troops pushed deeper into Jabaliya and expanded “operational control” in the area over the past day.Officers described the fighting in northern Gaza’s Jabaliya as some of the most intense amid the ongoing war, with Hamas operatives launching massive numbers of RPGs at tanks and armored vehicles.The slain soldier was Sgt. Ben Avishay, 20, of the Paratroopers Brigade’s signals company, from Nahariya.Amid the operation in Jabaliya, being carried out by the 98th Division, the Israel Defense Forces said its fighter jets and drones struck a weapons depot and killed several gunmen who had launched mortars at troops in the area.Late Saturday, tanks of the 7th Armored Brigade rolled into Jabaliya, an area that the military had previously operated in and claimed to have dismantled Hamas’s local battalions. The latest operation, however, was focused on areas deep in the Jabaliya refugee camp, which the IDF did not reach during the initial ground offensive.The IDF has so far reported killing more than 200 gunmen in the area — at least 60 of whom were killed by the 7th Brigade — and it estimated there may be several hundred more.The fighting was described as “intense” and the “most violent” amid the war, with many engagements, both above ground and by operatives using tunnels. The Jabaliya camp also has many narrow alleys, making it challenging for tanks to operate there.The operatives were mostly launching RPGs at tanks, but also setting up explosive devices. The 7th Brigade’s Merkava tanks, with the TROPHY active defense system, were largely managing to withstand the RPG attacks, with only a few cases of troops being injured, according to the military.On Friday morning, a soldier of the 460th Armored Brigade’s 9227th Battalion was seriously wounded during a battle with terror operatives in Jabaliya, the military announcedHe was taken to a hospital in Israel.Hamas operatives have also been launching attacks from within or near humanitarian shelters in Jabaliya, according to the army. The shelters have since been evacuated of civilians.The IDF said troops of the 101st Paratroopers Battalion, operating alongside the tank forces, located a rocket depot adjacent to one of the shelters. Dozens of long-range rockets and rocket parts were found at the site, it says.At the adjacent shelter, some 20 suspected terror operatives were detained by troops, the IDF added. Some 40 suspects total were captured in Jabaliya in recent days.Meanwhile, on Friday, one rocket fired from the Gaza Strip at the southern city of Sderot was intercepted by the Iron Dome, according to the IDF.Palestinian terrorists have been repeatedly attacking Sderot in recent days, as the IDF pushed into Jabaliya, where residents told Reuters that Israeli armor had thrust as far as the market at the heart of Jabaliya and that bulldozers were demolishing homes and shops in the path of the advance.Meanwhile, in southern Gaza’s Rafah, the 162nd Division’s 401st Armored Brigade located and destroyed a rocket launching position, according to the military. The IDF said the site was used to fire long-range rockets at Israel.Israel says four of Hamas’s six remaining battalions are now in Rafah along with hostages abducted during the terror group’s October 7 massacre, but it faces international pressure not to invade the city, where hundreds of thousands of displaced Palestinian civilians are sheltering amid the ongoing war. Two more Hamas battalions remain in central Gaza, in the Nuseirat and Deir al-Balah camps.The United Nations says that over 600,000 Gazans have evacuated the city since the IDF began operations there last week by taking over the Palestinian side of the Rafah Border Crossing.Also Friday, the military said it demolished a tunnel in central Gaza this week, amid an operation in Gaza City’s Zeitoun neighborhood.The week-long operation, carried out by the Nahal and Carmeli brigades, was wrapped up on Thursday. The IDF said troops demolished Hamas sites, including attack tunnels, weapon manufacturing sites, rocket launchers, and command rooms amid the pinpoint raid.IDF Spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari said Tuesday that some 150 terror operatives were killed in Zeitoun.Additionally, over the past day, the Israeli Air Force hit some 60 targets across Gaza, including buildings used by terror groups, weapon depots, anti-tank launch posts, and other infrastructure, as well as gunmen, according to the IDF.The war in Gaza erupted after Hamas’s October 7 massacre, which saw thousands of terrorists burst across the border into Israel, killing some 1,200 people and seizing 252 hostages, mostly civilians, many amid acts of brutality and sexual assault. Israel has vowed to eliminate Hamas to ensure it no longer poses a threat, but is also involved in indirect talks with the group aimed at an extended truce and exchange of hostages for Palestinian security prisoners.The Hamas-run Gaza health ministry says more than 35,000 people in the Strip have been killed or are presumed dead in the fighting so far, though only some 24,000 fatalities have been identified at hospitals. The tolls, which cannot be verified, include some 15,000 terror operatives Israel says it has killed in battle. Israel also says it killed some 1,000 terrorists inside Israel on October 7.Two hundred and eighty Israeli soldiers have been killed during the ground offensive against Hamas and amid operations along the Gaza border. A civilian Defense Ministry contractor has also been killed in the Strip.Agencies contributed to this report.

Gallant said to warn ministers that military rule in Gaza would cost ‘many lives’Hebrew media says defense minister walked out of security cabinet meeting after criticism from far-right ministers, Likud allies of PM, for his ‘day after’ war plans-By ToI Staff Today, 6:26 pm-MAY 17,24

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is reportedly to convene the war cabinet on Saturday night for a further discussion of Defense Minister Yoav Gallant’s vision for Gaza after the war, according to Hebrew media reports Friday. He reportedly said the issue was too complex and time too short for sufficient discussion at Thursday night’s meeting.Saturday night’s meeting will also focus on the currently deadlocked efforts to negotiate a deal for the release of hostages held by Hamas, after that issue, too, was not discussed at sufficient length on Thursday, the reports said.At a meeting of the security cabinet that followed the war cabinet session, meanwhile, several ministers castigated Gallant over his demand Wednesday that Netanyahu rule out Israeli military and civilian rule in the Palestinian enclave after the war, with Otzma Yehudit leader Itamar Ben Gvir repeating his demand that Gallant be fired.According to some Hebrew media reports, Gallant walked out of the security cabinet meeting at one juncture.The Israel Hayom daily said Gallant’s plans for the “day after” in Gaza include providing weapons to local figures tied to the Palestinian Authority with international oversight. In his speech on Wednesday, Gallant said it was in Israel’s best interests for Gaza to be governed by non-Hamas “Palestinian entities,” backed by “international actors.”The report claimed that Gallant’s plan, backed by the defense establishment, would include providing these groups with guns, which would be electronically monitored by Israel to prevent them from being used by Hamas, and would be part of an overall international effort to help govern the Strip led by Arab nations and backed by the US.Explaining his stance during the security cabinet meeting, Gallant reportedly warned that Israeli military rule in Gaza would require the deployment of massive forces.“We’ll pay for it with many lives, and in the end, we’ll withdraw from the territory and leave it to the Palestinians. Military rule will mean loss of life and neglecting other fronts,” he was quoted as sayings.According to a report cited by the Ynet news site, the price tag of running a military government in Gaza would be an estimated NIS 20 billion (around $5.4 billion) per year. In addition, Israel would have to shell out a yet-to-be-determined amount on rebuilding and repairing infrastructure in the enclave.The report also stated that 400 people would be needed to staff the military government and five IDF divisions would have to remain in Gaza, requiring Israel to shrink the number of troops on the northern border and in the West Bank, as well as necessitate a significant increase in the deployment of reservists on operational duty.At the security cabinet meeting, Ben Gvir reportedly said that he didn’t understand “how the defense minister allows himself to speak like this, when he knows the majority of the cabinet is against him on the ‘day after’ plan.”Transportation Minister Miri Regev, a close Likud ally of Netanyahu’s, reportedly criticized Gallant for making his public statement on Wednesday, and told him his responsibility was “to convince this forum” of ministers that his was the right path ahead.Gallant responded that he had a “public responsibility to explain the situation, if we’re going in a dangerous direction for Israel’s security,” before reportedly walking out.The security cabinet meeting came after Netanyahu said earlier Thursday that he would soon speak face-to-face with Gallant. While visiting an area close to the Gaza border, Netanyahu was asked by a reporter if he still trusts Gallant and whether they can still work together.“If you’re talking about what the defense minister said yesterday, then what I have to say to him I’ll first say one-on-one, and not here,” he responded.In his televised address on Wednesday, the defense minister told Netanyahu that he must take “tough decisions” to advance non-Hamas governance of Gaza, whatever the personal or political cost, because the gains of the war are being eroded and Israel’s long-term security is at stake.Gallant warned that he would not consent to Israeli civil or military governance of Gaza, and advocated governance by non-Hamas Palestinian entities, accompanied by international actors.Netanyahu quickly retorted that he was “not prepared to switch from Hamastan to Fatahstan,” referencing the Fatah-dominated Palestinian Authority.Several right-wing lawmakers have urged Netanyahu to fire the defense minister, for what would be the second time in 14 months.

ICJ expected to rule next week-Israel pans Gaza ‘distortions’ at World Court, says Pretoria aims to keep Hamas in power-Jerusalem points to efforts to supply aid as proof genocide claims are false, says petition would deny Israel right to self-defense, let Hamas keep attacking, likely seal hostages’ fate-By Jeremy Sharon-Today, 3:50 pm-MAY 17,24

Israel lambasted South Africa at the International Court of Justice on Friday over what it said was Pretoria’s “outrageous distortions” of the truth and “abuse” of the court’s procedures, during the latest hearings in The Hague over South African allegations of genocide against Jerusalem.South Africa alleged in court on Thursday that Israel’s current limited offensive in the southern Gaza city of Rafah is Jerusalem’s “end game” in its effort to commit genocide against the Palestinians in Gaza, by destroying what the South African team described as the last habitable area of the coastal enclave. It has asked the court to order Israel to halt its military operation.Responding on Friday, the Israeli legal team accused South Africa of ignoring the fact that it is continuing to facilitate the transfer of humanitarian aid to Gaza, and said Pretoria was trying to contort international law through the Genocide Convention in order to have the ICJ “micromanage” the war with Hamas, which Israel’s representatives insisted was far beyond the remit of the court.The Israeli attorneys also pointed out that South Africa recently hosted Hamas officials in Johannesburg and alleged that Pretoria was allied with Hamas. They said the country’s repeated requests for the court to order Israel to halt its military operations against the terror group demonstrated South Africa’s desire to preserve Hamas rule in Gaza.Israel’s team informed the court that both the Israel Defense Forces’ legal department and an independent Israeli commission were investigating dozens of incidents of alleged criminal misconduct by Israeli forces during the current conflict, while Israel’s civilian law enforcement agencies have decided to conduct legal proceedings over some expressions of incitement by citizens. This, they said, proved that Israel’s justice system was capable and willing to tackle any wrongdoing amid the war.“South Africa presents the court for the fourth time with a picture that is completely divorced from the facts and circumstances,” Israel’s Deputy Attorney General for International Law Gilad Noam told the court.Noam accused Hamas of deliberately putting Palestinian civilians in harm’s way as a tactic in its war against Israel, noting that “rocket sites, tunnel shafts, command and control sites are all embedded among the civilian population in Rafah.”He said Israel had long held off on a wide-scale operation in Rafah due to its desire to avoid harming civilians, and its ongoing preparations to deal with the challenges it will face in such an assault.“By exploiting the genocide convention, South Africa is suggesting a convoluted reading of international law, under which any conflict can be brought to this court,” said Noam.“The absurd result is that Israel would be denied its inherent right to defense and Hamas for its part would remain free to continue committing its horrific crimes.”Noam told the judges that the purpose of the Genocide Convention was “not to have the court supervise the conduct of armed hostilities” by claims of genocide, and that even though there was a “tragic war going on… there is no genocide.”He warned the court that if it acceded to South Africa’s request, it may find itself “engaged in the micromanagement of operational aspects of an armed conflict.”Noam also drew attention to Pretoria’s close ties to Hamas, stating that South Africa had hosted Hamas officials in Johannesburg at an anti-apartheid conference on May 9, and alleged that South Africa’s foreign minister, Naledi Pandor, met with some of those officials.“They did not use the meeting to urge Hamas to release hostages, stop targeting Israeli civilians, cease using human shields, cease operating in United Nations facilities, hospitals and other protected sites. They apparently met to discuss their continuing campaign against Israel in court and on the ground,” accused Noam.South Africa, Noam said, “is not interested in truth, law or justice.”Addressing specific allegations made by South Africa about Israel’s supposed genocidal actions, Foreign Ministry legal adviser Tamar Kaplan Tourgeman said South Africa had falsely accused Israel of “cutting off” Gaza from the outside world and humanitarian aid in recent days, citing in particular a temporary closure of the Kerem Shalom Crossing in its application to the court and its oral arguments yesterday.That crossing was closed after rocket attacks by terror groups in recent days, but is now operating again.In contradiction of Pretoria’s claims, she noted that humanitarian aid and fuel have continued to enter Gaza through Israel, including 365 trucks of aid that entered Thursday, 330 of them through Kerem Shalom itself.Kaplan Tourgeman also noted that Israel had opened three new land crossings into Gaza from Israeli territory in recent weeks, expanded capacity of the existing crossings, and spent $52 million on expanding infrastructure and road capacity to all crossings.“Is this what a hermetic closure looks like?” she demanded, while glaring at the South African legal team.“It is not difficult to see that Israel has been making additional efforts to increase the provision of humanitarian aid throughout Gaza. South Africa’s complete disregard of this reality and truth is as telling as it is alarming,” Kaplan Tourgeman said.Addressing South Africa’s claims that Israel has genocidal intent, Noam accused it of having “consistently cherry-picked” statements by Israeli officials to attribute genocidal intent to Israel. Such statements, he said, were either taken out of context or clearly referring to a desire to destroy Hamas specifically, and not Palestinians in general.South Africa on Thursday cited recent inflammatory comments by Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich about destroying Rafah and other Gazan cities, and played a video in court showing IDF soldiers singing that they will “dismantle Rafah,” as evidence of supposed genocidal intent by Israel towards Palestinians.Noam said that Israel has “made repeatedly clear” that war policy and “instructions for conducting hostilities” emanated from the security cabinet and war cabinet only “and not from various social media accounts or interviews.”And Kaplan Tourgeman pointed to a decision by the security cabinet on April 4 which stated that Israel would increase efforts to “allow and facilitate transfer of humanitarian aid for the civilian population in the Gaza strip,” and establish a ministerial team to “implement the policy of the government regarding the transfer of humanitarian aid to Gaza Strip.”“The decisions of the Israeli cabinet and their implementation on the ground leave no doubt that South Africa’s allegations about genocide are completely and utterly baseless,” said Kaplan Tourgeman.“South Africa is trying once more to drag this court down a very dangerous path. It will have you say that a sovereign state under consistent attack, whose citizens are held hostage in brutal conditions, cannot defend its citizens,” concluded Kaplan Tourgeman.“There is no international law to this effect. Acceding to South Africa’s request would be an affront to the very protection afforded by the law. It would enable Hamas battalions to continue to target Israel, attack humanitarian crossings, condemn Palestinians in Gaza to eternal war and condemn the hostages to almost certain death.”South Africa on Thursday demanded that the court order Israel to cease not only its military operation in Rafah but its entire campaign against Hamas in the Gaza Strip.A ruling is expected next week.

NYC deputy mayor: Washington Post report on Columbia contains ‘antisemitic tropes’Post report alleged Jewish billionaires used their money and power to influence Mayor Eric Adams to take action against student protests-By ToI Staff Today, 12:22 pm-MAY 17,24

A New York City deputy mayor has attacked The Washington Post for a report he said employed antisemitic tropes, as it suggested Jewish billionaires were using their money and power to influence elected officials in their treatment of student protesters against Israel at Columbia University.Fabien Levy, who gave the Post a statement saying their report was “completely false,” took to X Thursday to state that he was “shocked when the inquiry came in.”“The insinuation that Jewish donors secretly plotted to influence government operations is an all too familiar antisemitic trope that The Washington Post should have been ashamed to ask about, let alone actually publish,” he wrote.Levy went on to say that “the story is even more offensive than initially described to us” and clarified that both times police were called into Columbia it was at the “specific written requests from Columbia University to do so.”The report in question, which was published on Thursday, described the activities of a WhatsApp group set up after October 7 in which participants, who were mostly Jewish billionaires, coordinated how they could use their resources to help Israel fight its battle for public diplomacy abroad.“The messages offer a window into how some prominent individuals have wielded their money and power in an effort to shape American views of the Gaza war, as well as the actions of academic, business and political leaders — including New York’s mayor,” the report said.Exclusive: A group of billionaires and business titans working to shape U.S. public opinion of the war in Gaza privately pressed New York City’s Mayor Eric Adams (D) last month to send police to disperse pro-Palestinian protests at Columbia University. https://t.co/PWgvkAwVG0 — The Washington Post (@washingtonpost) May 16, 2024-Titled “Israel Current Events,” the group was reportedly started by real estate magnate Barry Sternlicht a few days after October 7 and closed at the beginning of May. An unnamed person close to Sternlicht told The Post that the group was closed because it had moved past its founding objective and the original participants hadn’t been active in months.In messages from the group seen by The Post, a staffer for Sternlicht originally told the group that the goal was to “change the narrative” to help Israel with its public diplomacy.Some members of the group met with Israeli officials, such as former prime minister Naftali Bennett and war cabinet minister Benny Gantz, for briefings on how they could help. The messages in the group also showed that its participants were instrumental in helping Israel arrange screenings of the IDF’s 45-minute documentary of October 7 Hamas atrocities, made of footage taken from security cameras and terrorists’ bodycams.The documentary was made by the IDF as part of Israel’s public diplomacy campaign and was shown to journalists and elected officials around the world, and members of the group helped arrange a showing at Harvard as well.Aside from helping with Israeli public diplomacy, The Post alleged that members of the group also made donations to New York City Mayor Eric Adams to influence him into calling in police to remove pro-Palestinian and anti-Israel protesters. The report alleged that they also used their influence on Columbia leadership to convince them to ask Adams to call in the police.According to the messages, members of the group took part in a Zoom meeting with Adams on April 26 where they allegedly discussed “donating to Adams, using group members’ ‘leverage’ to help persuade Columbia’s president to let New York police back on campus and paying for ‘investigative efforts’ to assist the city.”While a link for donations to Adams’s campaign was shared in the group, The Post could not confirm how many and when, if at all, its members donated.As a private university, the NYPD can only enter Columbia to break up protests and arrest demonstrators at the request of the institution and cannot do so at the mayor’s request alone.The NYPD was called into Columbia to break up protests twice in April. The first time was on April 18, a day after pro-Palestinian and anti-Israel protesters set up an encampment on campus grounds as part of their demonstration. More than 100 protesters were arrested and the encampment was dismantled.Even though it was rebuilt the next day and stayed up for weeks, the police were not asked for assistance again until April 30, when students vandalized and occupied Hamilton Hall. The police were called in that night to clear the students out of the hall and dozens of protesters were arrested.Levy in his response said reports of any other considerations beyond the university’s request were “completely false.” He reiterated Adams’ view that peaceful protest “has a place in our society and will always be protected” but that as a private university, Columbia had the right to call for police assistance if protests on its grounds violated its rules.“The Washington Post and others can make editorial decisions to disagree with the decisions by universities to ask the NYPD to clear unlawful encampments on campuses, but saying Jews ‘wielded their money and power in an effort to shape American views’ is offensive on so many levels,” he concluded.The war in Gaza was launched on October 7 by Hamas after thousands of the group’s terrorists rampaged through southern Israel, murdering some 1,200 people, mostly civilians, and taking 252 hostages.In response, Israel launched a ground invasion into the Gaza Strip with the objective of dismantling Hamas and getting the hostages back.The Hamas-run Gaza health ministry says more than 35,000 people in the Strip have been killed or are presumed dead in the fighting so far, though only some 24,000 fatalities have been identified at hospitals. The toll, which cannot be verified as it does not differentiate between terrorists and civilians, includes some 15,000 terror operatives Israel says it has killed in battle. Israel also says it killed some 1,000 terrorists inside Israel on and around October 7.Israel has faced growing international criticism for its military campaign in Gaza since the war began, especially in recent months as the Palestinian enclave teeters on the brink of famine and the number of displaced civilians continues to grow.Students at university campuses abroad have been particularly vocal in their criticism with protests that intensified in April with Columbia’s encampment. Many universities across the US and Europe followed suit, with students setting up their own encampments and occupying buildings on campus as they demanded their institutions divest from Israel.While some universities have come to agreements with protesters, demonstrations at Columbia persisted for weeks with some Jewish students leaving the campus, saying they no longer felt safe. The last couple of weeks of classes were moved online, and the university’s main commencement ceremony was canceled.
