Britain will not stand back and accept the destruction of the two-state solution," the British Foreign Secretary declared this week, after summoning Israel's Chargé d'Affaires like a headmaster calling in a boy caught smoking behind the bicycle shed.
The offense?
A tender for apartments in E1, between Jerusalem and Ma'ale Adumim, in the Jewish homeland, approved in 2025, processed for months, and now suddenly the gravest threat to world peace since the fall of Singapore.
Fine. Don't stand back. Sit down. Lie down. Have a smoke behind the bicycle shed. Do whatever it is you do these days instead of governing His Majesty’s Global Colonial Empire. Just spare us the sermon.
Because here is what has changed, and what London has not yet noticed:

Allison Rahmani, a 40-year-old mother of four and teacher at the Hebrew Academy of Five Towns and Rockaway, died Friday morning after the SUV she was driving crashed into an in-ground swimming pool, authorities said.
Rahmani was driving a 2023 GMC in the driveway of a home on Elinor Road shortly before 9:30 a.m. when she lost control of the vehicle, according to the Nassau County Police Department.
The SUV struck a tree and an unoccupied 2006 Honda before plunging into the in-ground pool, police said.
Rahmani was removed from the vehicle before officers arrived. Police performed lifesaving measures before she was transported for medical treatment.
A source familiar with the family told JNS that Rahmani did not drown. The source said she was able to call for help after the crash but died in an ambulance while being transported to the hospital.
Police said Rahmani was ultimately pronounced dead at a local hospital.
Police initially did not identify the woman or say whether she lived at the residence where the crash occurred. She was later identified as Rahmani, a Hewlett Bay Park resident.
The fatal vehicular accident remains under investigation. Police have not disclosed what caused Rahmani to lose control of the SUV.
Outside Plymouth Superior Court in Massachusetts this week, Americans are witnessing something resembling a mass psychosis event.
Hundreds of women have assembled to support Lindsay Clancy, the mother on trial for murdering her three young children.
Clancy does not deny killing 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson and 8-month-old Callan with her own hands.
Her defense argues that she was suffering from postpartum psychosis and therefore cannot be held criminally responsible.
The women outside the courthouse, holding babies while cheering for Clancy, have no such excuse.
Unless, that is, we want to talk about what social media has done to women’s ability to process tragedy, assign responsibility and distinguish between victim and perpetrator.
Imagine the conversation at home as Mom puts on pink and heads off to spend the day with hundreds of other women cheering as members of Clancy’s defense team drive past.
“Mom, who’s the woman you’re making heart hands at?”
“A woman who strangled her three children!”
For the families of these women, alarm bells should be ringing.
Turkey has been attempting to install advanced Russian air defense systems at airbases throughout Syria, in preparation for the deployment of Turkish jets inside Syria.

What these gentlemen just don’t seem to understand is that Hamas is not a mismanaged real estate company looking for an exit strategy.
By Jonathan Pollard, World Israel News
The core tenet of modern counterterrorism has long been unyielding: democratic governments do not reward mass violence with diplomatic parity. Yet, Jared Kushner’s recent high-stakes meeting in Egypt with Hamas leader Khalil al-Hayya shatters this foundational principle.
In attempting to broker a 15-point peace roadmap under the banner of the Trump administration’s “Board of Peace,” Washington has crossed an extremely dangerous threshold.
By treating a designated terrorist organization as a legitimate partner, this initiative creates an existential moral hazard and threatens the structural integrity of the U.S.-Israel alliance. The fatal flaw of Kushner’s blueprint lies in its naive assumption that Hamas can be induced to surrender its weapons through a phased diplomatic process.
The framework envisions a phased transition where Hamas surrenders its heavy weaponry to a technocratic National Committee in exchange for a complete military withdrawal from Gaza by Israel.
To believe that an organization rooted in genocidal anti-Semitism will willingly strip itself of its primary leverage is an illusion that ignores decades of regional history.
For Hamas, ceasefires have never been steps toward permanent coexistence; they are tactical pauses used to regroup, rearm, and reinforce tunnel networks.
For example, in order to retain the organization’s small arms, Hamas has recently justified the distribution of thousands of machine guns to its members by designating them as “personal defense” weapons that fall outside their commitment to disarm. They did this, by the way, in broad daylight without a word of criticism from Mr. Kushner.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s flat rejection of this roadmap is not mere political posturing ahead of the October elections. It is a calculated, necessary refusal to repeat past strategic failures that cost thousands of Israeli lives.
For Mr. Netanyahu, demanding complete, verifiable disarmament before a single Israeli soldier withdraws is the only position compatible with long-term security.
If the Israel Defense Forces withdraw prematurely based on vague backroom promises, the security vacuum will inevitably be filled by the next generation of militancy, ensuring that Gaza remains a permanent launchpad for terror.
At its root, this transactional diplomacy being practiced by Trump, Kushner, and Witkoff treats deeply ideological conflict as a corporate real estate dispute to be managed via international stabilization forces and infrastructure committees.
What these gentlemen just don’t seem to understand is that Hamas is not a mismanaged real estate company looking for an exit strategy; it is a bloodthirsty Islamist terrorist organization whose genocidal ideology bears chilling similarities to that of the Nazis.
Offering them diplomatic recognition on the international stage as Kushner just did undercuts the sacrifice of those fighting them on the front lines and vindicates the original perpetrators of the October 7 atrocities.
True enduring stability in the Middle East cannot be built on empty pacts signed with terrorist entities. Rather than forcing a deeply flawed, corrupt, business-centric blueprint onto a resistant ally, Washington must pivot back to ironclad coordination with a new Israeli government that is dedicated to achieving a clear, decisive victory over its enemies.
What this means in this instance is that peace will only be achieved when the Israeli government orders the IDF to eliminate Hamas.
After that, the government should rid Gaza of its brainwashed residents, and announce the annexation of the Strip. Assuming all this occurs, then and only then will the security of our southern border be assured. And Mr. Kushner can go back to being a failed real estate agent.
The interview will be recorded Thursday and is scheduled to air later that evening on Cohen’s radio program, according to MS NOW. Cohen confirmed the interview after the report was published. Additional excerpts are expected to air Sunday on his WABC show, which is also released as a podcast.
The Jewish Link has learned that Teaneck-based fashion designer Ari Ladino, owner of Luana Rose Modestly on West Englewood Avenue, and his mother who worked with him, have been detained by ICE. Elie Y. Katz, the store’s landlord, said he was at a wedding when he began getting frantic calls from a woman who said her daughter’s wedding dress was at the shop. She had been unable to reach Ladino and the wedding was imminent.
Ladino’s specialty is designing simcha and special occasion custom and semi-custom gowns. Katz met the woman at the store, along with the police, and saw that packages were piling up outside the storefront. They were able to get inside and retrieve the finished dress. Katz got another call from a client of the store who needed her dress and he met her there the next day.
Ladino’s whereabouts were a mystery and troubling because he and his mother were fixtures in the shop, working long hours.
Katz reached out to Ladino’s former partner who gave him numbers of people he might contact. One was a cousin who wanted access to the store. Katz told her he had to hear from Ladino first. Meanwhile, Katz had the police go to the address on Ladino’s driver’s license to check his whereabouts but no one was there. Ladino and his mother are originally from Colombia. Katz did not have any information about their immigration status.
Recently I have been in touch with companies and universities who have been solving crimes that are over 50 years old!
One of the Companies that I have been corresponding with is a company called Othram!
Othram's technology enables local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies across the world, to break through previously impenetrable forensic DNA barriers and close previously unsolvable cases.
I have also reached out to other companies, and they have also shown interest in pursuing this case, however, Othram is corresponding with me and I have put them in touch with law enforcement in charge of the cold case unit!
This may cost a huge amount of money, and I have spoken to many "gevirim" who are very much interested and committed in getting this case solved!
If we can get all our ducks lined up, we may be able to solve this case finally!
Usually, until now, when there is a crime, the perpetrator has had to have committed another crime to be in the FBI data base, but with this technology, we don't even need his fingerprints and he doesn't have had to be entered into the FBI data base at all.
I will update as I get more info!
The traditionally expensive shtreimel market may be facing an unlikely new competitor: a Chinese manufacturer offering Chassidishe shtreimlach online for prices beginning at just $960, far below what many buyers are accustomed to paying in Israel and the United States.
For generations, shtreimlach have been associated with highly specialized craftsmen, custom fittings and prices reaching thousands — and sometimes tens of thousands — of shekels. But a listing on Alibaba is now offering what it describes as a genuine Chassidish eshtreimel directly from a manufacturer in China.
The product is being sold by Hengshui Fn Fur Trading Co., Ltd., a company based in China’s Hebei province. On Alibaba, the manufacturer is listed with a rating of 4.9 out of 5 based on 13 reviews.
The listing describes the product as a “Streimel Jewish Hasidic Hat” and references sable fur and sable tails, along with fox fur. Current prices range from $960 to $1,350, with a minimum order of two shtreimlach.
According to details of the offer that circulated online, customers can choose among four sizes based on head circumference: 54–56 centimeters, 56–58 centimeters, 58–60 centimeters and 60–62 centimeters.
The family of 24-year-old Katriel Nachman Keinan of Beit Shemesh fears he may have been abducted after disappearing approximately a week ago while traveling between Tiveriah and Tzfas, as police, volunteers and divers continue an extensive search for him.
Keinan’s father, Yossi Keinan, filed a missing-person report with the Beit Shemesh police after his son abruptly vanished and stopped communicating with his family. According to a report by mako, the family has grown increasingly concerned that foul play may have been involved.
“I’m afraid my son was kidnapped. It’s a dangerous area. He didn’t just disappear and stop making contact for no reason. Maybe someone kidnapped him,” his father said. “He is such a good boy that wherever he goes, there is light and positive energy. He was on his way to meet with his rabbi to consult with him.”
Yossi said the last time he personally saw his son was at the entrance to a shul.
“He told me he was going to stop by a friend and didn’t come back. I haven’t seen him since,” he said.
According to his father, Nachman had said that after meeting his friend, he planned to travel from Beit Shemesh to Tzfas for an urgent consultation with his Rav.
The Rav later told the family that Nachman did in fact arrive in Tzfas and spoke with him by telephone at approximately 10 p.m. The Rav explained that he was at a hospital because of a family matter and could not meet him that evening, but offered to see him at 10 a.m. the following morning and even arrange a place for him to sleep. Nachman responded that he would manage on his own and would meet the Rav the next day.
“He never heard from him again. I still managed to speak to him the next morning, but he said his phone battery was about to die, and then he disappeared. That was it,” his father said.
Since Nachman vanished, search teams have concentrated their efforts in locations where investigators believe he may have traveled. Police have also reviewed security-camera footage in an effort to reconstruct his movements.
One surveillance camera from a business in Tiveriah captured Nachman walking in the direction of Gai Beach on the Kinneret, providing investigators with one of the last known images of him before he disappeared.
According to the family, the commander of the Beit Shemesh police station and local officers have been closely involved in the search, together with police forces from the Northern District. Divers have also been searching the Kinneret, but no trace of Nachman has been discovered.
“The station commander in Beit Shemesh is constantly in touch with us. He is helping us and conducting searches in the field with his officers. Divers are also searching the Kinneret. Nobody has found anything. It’s very strange,” Yossi said.
Nachman, a Chabad chossid, spent several years living in the Philippines before returning to Israel. His family continues to hold out hope that he is alive and will soon be found.
“We are davening and believe that Nachman is alive. We hope the police and the many volunteers will find him. He is the light of our lives.”
Nachman was last seen on Monday, August 10, at approximately 6 p.m. in the area of Gai Beach in Tiveriah while reportedly on his way to Tzfas. He has not been seen since.
Nachman is approximately 5 feet 8 inches tall, with black hair, a beard and brown eyes. When last seen, he was wearing a white shirt, black suit and hat and was carrying a black backpack and a dark-brown tefillin bag.
