"Jew/Israel Hater" ADL head Jonathan Greenblatt must be replaced
A recent Fox News investigation found that the Anti-Defamation League’s educational and “anti-bias” programs, which influence millions of American children, educators and officials, promote far-left and critical race theory concepts including “white privilege” and “systemic racism.”
The materials also promote groups such as the Women’s March and Black Lives Matter, despite the fact that these organizations and their leaders often take virulent Jew- and Israel-hating positions, and express support for the anti-Semitic Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan.
ADL programs call denying white privilege a “biased attitude,” encourage white children to view themselves as “oppressors” and include an article indicating that white women are “justly seen as oppressive” and “enjoy unearned skin privilege,” among other egregious claims.
This is a longstanding problem. Six years ago, our group, the Zionist Organization of America, documented that multiple ADL lesson plans encouraged students to join BLM protests in Ferguson, Missouri. At these same protests, calls were made for ending Israel’s existence, calling it an apartheid, genocidal state. The ADL further promoted BLM while ignoring the BLM/Movement for Black Lives organizations’ anti-Semitism and anti-Semitic platform.
JNS Editor-in-Chief Jonathan Tobin pointed out that the ADL’s announcement following the Fox investigation that it would review educational content “misaligned "with ADL’s values was “blatantly dishonest.” This was the case because the ADL’s woke leftist educational materials are, in fact, aligned with ADL’s woke far-left values, promoted under ADL CEO and national director Jonathan Greenblatt.
Tobin noted that the ADL publicly endorsed BLM and its racist “equity” agenda, defended anti-Semitic congresswomen Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) and Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), downplayed left-wing anti-Semitism, hired an outreach director who calls Jews racists and worked with tech firms to promote internet censorship.

Israel Prisons Service weighs early release for terrorist mass-murderer who murdered Rabbi Benyamin & Talia Kahana
22 years after the murders of Rabbi Binyamin Kahane and his wife Talia, the Israel Prisons Service early release board is considering granting an early release to the murderer, Naji Abu Khamid, after Abu Khamid requested a hearing claiming ill health.
The terrorist was convicted not only of the murders of the Kahanes but also of a string of other offenses including the murder of Gadi Rejuan, who was killed in the Atarot industrial zone. Abu Khamid was sentenced to seven life sentences and a further 50 years behind bars.
The families of the victims were only very recently informed of the date of the hearing and both the son of Rabbi Kahane and the daughter of Gadi Rejuan have appealed to have the hearing postponed. Kahane and Rejuan are being represented by attorneys Ofir Steiner and Haim Bleicher of the Honenu organization, who are also demanding that their clients be permitted to make statements at the hearing against the early release of the man who murdered their parents.
Following their request, the Prisons Service agreed to postpone the hearing which would otherwise have taken place next Sunday and will set a new date for the convenience of the families.
Rabbi: Don't eat apples in honey on Rosh Hashanah
Rabbi Ben Zion Mutzafi, a leading Sephardic rabbi, told a student not to eat the traditional apple dipped in honey on Rosh Hashanah (the Jewish New Year), Kikar Hashabbat reported.
On Wednesday night, one of Rabbi Mutzafi's students asked him, "Dear honored rabbi, do Sephardic Jews have a custom to eat an apple in honey on Rosh Hashanah? Because my grandfather said no."
In his response, Rabbi Mutzafi wrote, "'Ask your father, and he will tell you; your elders, and they will inform you.' (Deuteronomy 32:7) The grandfather is absolutely right. To this day, we the sons of the communities of the east do not have a custom to eat honey on Rosh Hashanah. Rather, we cook some type of fruits or vegetables in sugar, and eat it."
He explained, "According to the Kabbalah, honey represents the trait of justice, which should not be aroused on Rosh Hashanah, because its color is yellowish gold. Its numerical value is also reminiscent [of this], with the letters shin and vav (equaling 306) from the letters of [the word] shofar, which are sweetened by the shofar blasts, and with 14 knuckles of the fingers which hold the shofar, which [together with shin and vav] are the numerical equivalent of shin and kaf (320), which are judgements as mentioned in Edera Rabba in the Holy Zohar. And [this is] as our teachers the Arizal (Rabbi Yitzhak Luria - ed.) and the Rashshash (Rabbi Shalom Sharabi - ed.) wrote, and you can look this up in Shofar Betzion."
Each of the Hebrew letters has a numerical value, called gematriya. The first ten letters represent the numbers 1-10, with the next letters representing 20, 30, 40, and so on, until the letter kuf, which has a value of 100. The three final letters, reish, shin, and taf, have numerical values of 200, 300, and 400, respectively.
Trump Offered Jordan Control Over Judea, Samaria
US President Donald Trump offered Jordan’s King Abdullah II control over Judea and Samaria in January 2018, according to a bombshell report published Wednesday by The Washington Post.
The previously unreported offer was reported in a new book on the Trump residency due to be published next week, written by the husband-and-wife journalist team of Peter Baker and Susan Glasser.
The Jordanian monarch apparently didn’t react well to the offer.
“I thought I was having a heart attack,” Abdullah told an American friend in 2018, according to the report. “I couldn’t breathe. I was bent doubled-over.”
Abdullah has had endless problems with his majority-Palestinian Authority Arab population, the newspaper noted.
According to the book, Trump thought he would be doing Abdullah a favor, “not realizing that it would destabilize his country.”
Mazal Tov Jonathan Pollard Engaged
Former spy Jonathan Pollard is set to remarry, with the couple poised to make a formal announcement on their engagement.
Pollard, 68, got engaged to Rivka, a Jerusalemite and mother of seven, last week, but made no public statement regarding the event.
The couple are slated to make a public announcement sometime after the funeral of IDF Major Bar Falah, who was shot and killed during a gun battle with Arab terrorists in Samaria overnight.
On Tuesday, Pollard attended the Bar Mitzvah of Shahar Dagan, son of Samaria Regional Council chief Yossi Dagan.
In January, Pollard’s late wife Esther passed away, following a lengthy battle with cancer.
Pollard and his first wife, Anne, divorced in the late 1980s.
The official announcement reads:
How can I repay the Lord for all of his bountiful deals towards me? (Psalm 116 12).
With praise and thanks to G-d, we are excited to announce our engagement
We are full of gratitude to you, our friends and family members and our dear children for your love and hugs and first and foremost to Esther, may she rest in peace,. who in her infinite love even recognized us and allowed this miracle to happen. Her memory will always be with us.
The wedding will take place, G-d willing, in two months, after the High Holidays.
Jewish Baron Gives Queen Elizabeth a Brilliant Hesped in Parliament
Queen Elizabeth has been eulogized by countless politicians and other leading figures across the globe. But in his tribute to the late monarch in the House of Lords, Baron David Wolfson used a new method of talking about the significance of her death: explaining a pillar of Jewish mysticism.
In a six-minute speech on Friday, Wolfson, a Conservative who served as a justice minister under Boris Johnson, walked his peers through several aspects of Jewish tradition — including gematria, the Jewish practice of finding meaning through the numerical value of words.
