"The Ones "shmading" Yiddishkeit in Israel are Actually the Chassidim and the Litvakis" Father speaks from his heart!

 

So what's going on??

There are elections in Beit Shemesh for Mayor, and for City Councilmen. It's been vicious! 

Thank G-d it over tomorrow!

The three candidates for Mayor, is the present Mayor, Dr. Aliza Bloch, Moshe Abutbul the previous Mayor who lost against Aliza in the last election, and Shmuel Greenberg.

Greenberg dragged the aging Rav Landau to give him the endorsement. Rav Landau has since rescinded those endorsements after he found out that Greenberg lied to him and promised that he would not support "mamlachti" Yeshivos which teach "lemudei Chol, English, Math etc. But at same time, Greenberg promised the other Councilmen running, that he would leave the status quo! 

Abutbul dragged out his dead rabbis, who according to many commentaries don't know what is presently going on in this world. He like Greenberg, lied to his Sfardie Rabbis that he would not back "mamlachti" schools but then turned around, stabbed them in the back (the live ones, of course) and teamed up with the Local Likkud Party that is all for Mamlachti Schools. 

Dr. Aliza Bloch who also received many rabbinical endorsements, but her endorsements were exclusively from local rabbanim, says openly that she is backing Schools for all children living Beit Shemesh, be they chassidim, Litvaks, Sfardim and even Chilonim. 

Just that you know, no party can win in Beit Shemesh if they are officially against "mamlachti" schools! 

So what's the issue????

A new party called "Derech" popped up founded by a Chassidishe guy named Moti Leitner. 

Leitner is the 3rd from the left

This party targets the English speakers and the olim. They are promising residents of Ramat Beit Shemesh that they will ensure that all be treated equally in terms of resource allocation, investments, and development, and most important they believe like Dr. Aliza Bloch that each child get an education to their unique needs, in other words they will support "mamlachti schools." 

A couple of weeks ago, a campaign by the local rabbanim who are against "mamlachti" schools (Only G-d knows why) began in full swing, winking to the extremists that they should destroy this party. 

So the extremists who have nothing to do all day, they don't learn, have no internet, no sports, no nothing, went in like "Nachshan Ben Amindav", started a campaign of intimidation and harassment by screaming at Moti Leitner's wife and children and came to his dira in Dalet where he lives, and kept this up every week threatening and humiliating them. They are also harassing his father.

The Rabbanim????? אין קול ואין עונה ...... crickets!

Meanwhile at the ranch, the local Rabbanim, some of whom speak fluent English and who studied in Yeshivos that provided secular studies, which they are now against, started talking to the Chareidie press saying that Leitner is "shmading" yiddishishe kinderlich! 

But a father is a father and as the pietan says: כרחם אב על בנים Leitner's father sent out a rant that went viral and has close to 300,00 views in which he says that it is actually the Chassidishe and Litvishe Yeshivos (he meant the rabbanim) that are "shmading' our precious kinderlach. He asks why shouldn't every single child get an education suited for him? 

You don't have to understand Hebrew to understand and feel this father's pain. 

He is saying that the radical Hebrew Newspaper "Hamevser" came out with an announcement after they found out that Abutbul lied to them and that he teamed up with Likkud ...that Shas is destroying yiddishe neshamois. The kanaim the extremist are screaming and cursing the Agudists, the Peleg are screaming at the Litvaks,. He says that all the other newspapers are each blaming the other "Daas Torah" parties stating that they are destroying yiddishkeit.. the different parties stating "Daas Torah" state you get "Gan Eden" if you vote for them and like the Christians they say that you go to Hell if you vote against them. He then tells them who are the real people "shmading" am yisrael.... 

Chassidim and the Litvaks they are destroying yiddishkeit as we know it! 

He should be working for DIN 

Hamas Soldiers Finally Open Up In Disturbing Interviews!

 

Michael Savage Slams ‘Biggest Lie of Our Time’ on Palestine, Shows Continuous Jewish Presence in Israel Since 1900 BC

 

The Jewish people have populated Israel for nearly 4,000 years, noted conservative radio legend Michael Savage, who slammed “the biggest lie of our time” that Jews have no connection to, or right to reside in, their ancient homeland.

Appearing on Newsmax TV’s Rob Schmitt Tonight, the New York Times best-selling author debunked claims from “far-left terrorist sympathizers” that the Jews are “operating on stolen land.”

Calling it a “great opportunity to set the record straight,” Savage slammed the notion that Jews arrived in Israel after 1948 and that they are essentially Europeans that “don’t belong there,” calling such claims “the biggest lie of our time.”

“Nothing could be further from the truth,” he asserted.

Venezuelan migrants killing all of us and the US Cannot Deport Them ..All While Biden Naps!

Jose Antonio Ibarra

 Nursing Student Laken Riley

 A wave of violent crimes being carried out across America has been linked to Venezuelan migrants and the U.S. government cannot deport any of them, as the South American country will not take any of its citizens back.

An illegal immigrant originally from Venezuela has been charged in connection with the violent murder of Georgia nursing student Laken Riley on the University of Georgia campus on Thursday. Jose Antonio Ibarra, 26, the suspect, was released into the U.S. via parole, three ICE & DHS sources told Fox News.

In New York City, the NYPD is trying to crack down on a violent Venezuelan gang known as Tren de Aragua that it says is responsible for terrorizing residents with dozens of robberies in the Big Apple, where the group has now been blamed for scooter and moped robberies as well as retail theft.

At least two of its members were arrested in connection with the shocking mob assault of two New York City police officers last month.

Arab Wiseguy Messes with the wrong Chayelet

 

Mesiras Nefesh of Ori Megidish who was Kidnapped by Hamas and Rescued Will Return to the Army

 

💪🏽 *RESILIENCE* 

 Cpl. Ori Megidish, who was kidnapped by Hamas on October 7 and later rescued by special forces from captivity in the Gaza Strip, will return to her army service today.

Megidish, who was an observation soldier at the Nahal Oz post, will  now serve in the IDF's Military Intelligence Directorate.

The decision to return Megidish to service " stemmed from her personal desire and sense of mission to serve the country."

Civilians in northern Gaza want Hamas to continue the war and not give up.

 

_”Despite the fact that we are now eating animal and livestock food, we have a clear message to Hamas… 

Don’t give up! 

All Palestinian prisoners must be released. If there is no  animal food, we will eat sand. Don’t give up on anything.!_

And we have a message to the Jews… 

We have already committed  October 7th and there will be October 8th and October 9th and October 10th and so on…”_

Thousands of Jewish teens gather at Ohel amid spike in antisemitic incidents

 Thousands of Jewish teens from across the globe gathered at a pro-Israel rally in Times Square and at the grave of a beloved rabbi as part of the annual CTeen International Summit.

A massive crowd prayed at the grave of Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson in Queens Sunday, a day after the Times Square rally, spreading handwritten, shredded prayers over his final resting place.

The Rebbe’s resting place is known for its spiritual significance, attracting over 400,000 visitors annually.

CTeen volunteer Mendel Zaklikovsky said the gathering at the grave site was significant because Schneerson was passionate about young people.

“The Rebbe was very into education. He would always talk about the potential that young adults have,” Zaklikovsky told The Post. “They are the future leaders of the Jewish world. So it’s very important that we instill in them a strong sense of Jewish pride.

“Just coming together is a very massive thing for these teenagers,” Zaklikovsky said. “There’s a lot of antisemitism, and when there are 3,000 teens coming together, it’s a big deal.”

The CTeen International Summit, hosted by CTeen, brings together teens from around the world for a weekend of prayer and workshops on topics such as antisemitism, mental health, and leadership.

This year’s theme is “Count on Me”.

Adi Zohar a pregnant Lady Shot in Mallei Adummim Describes her Miracle

Adi Zohar, who was severely injured in last week’s terror attack near Maaleh Adumim, spoke with the media Sunday about the amazing miracle she experienced.

“Thank Hashem, I am slowly recovering,” Mrs. Zohar, who is pregnant, said from her hospital bed. “I had a great miracle, and I want to focus on that. I got my life back.”

Mrs. Zohar described her harrowing experience during last week’s terror attack on Route 1, in vivid detail.

“I travel there every morning. I was waiting in the traffic jam.”

She described how she “was talking on the phone, and I noticed that the car in front of me suddenly rammed into the car ahead. I thought it was a strange accident, but within seconds the terrorist got out of the car as if he was possessed.”

“I saw his gun immediately, I started screaming to my aunt on the phone that they were going to shoot me because I had no way to avoid it. “He looked at me, I tried to slide down in my seat and I thought about my fetus and I said, ‘Shema Yisrael,’ and he fired at me, I saw blood on my shirt.”

“I didn’t feel the bullet hit me. I got out and tried to run away, and I later saw in the videos that the terrorist was close to me,” she added.

She recounted the horrific moments after she was shot. “I crawled on the ground and tried to reach other cars so they would know something happened to me, that I was hurt.”

“Because I was on all fours, most drivers didn’t open the door for me, they were scared. A nice woman let me into her car and, in the midst of the chaos, I managed to gather myself and told her, ‘I’m pregnant, they shot me, call an ambulance,'” she said.

“I experienced a miracle,” she said. “First of all, I’m still here. We’re now four days after the incident. The bullet hit in a very dangerous place, but both I and my unborn child are alive, and that’s what matters.”

Mrs. Zohar emphasized, “I had a miracle here. The shrapnel was in a dangerous place, and I and my fetus are alive. Everyone speaks about the moments before death, and that’s how I felt, and I thought about my two-year-old son who will have to grow up without me. Hashem was with me. The fact that I did not lose consciousness protected my fetus.”

Unbelievable! Sneaky Demonrats slap surprise ‘Hamas amendment’ on Holocaust education bill

 

All this in the great State of Washington

Except Rep. Emily Alvarado (D) dropped an amendment out of nowhere that R's weren't prepared to debate on (very out of line with procedure). The amendment is an exercise in Holocaust whataboutism:https://t.co/pAKeXTtLNk pic.twitter.com/EjzojG2U12

— Brandi Kruse (@BrandiKruse) February 10, 2024

A bipartisan bill on Holocaust and genocide education in Washington state has had a “Hamas amendment” slapped on it by State House Democrats that would guarantee that antisemitic and pro-Hamas talking points are taught to public school children.

House Bill 2037 mandates that public schools teach the Holocaust and other genocides and augment current material on the Holocaust with a curriculum augmented by the Holocaust Center for Humanity and other agencies. Additionally, in April, International Genocide Prevention and Awareness Month, Washington public schools must also promote age-appropriate educational activities regarding the Holocaust and other genocides.

The bill was a companion to a Senate bill, introduced by Republican State Senator John Braun, following the Hamas massacre of Oct 7, to address GOP concerns that one in five Americans aged 18 to 29 don't think the Holocaust occurred.

However, once the bills were introduced, local antisemites and Hamas supporters spammed legislators demanding that the Holocaust education be watered down and focus more on other genocides.

Blink'crap under fire for reversing policy on 'settlements': "A shameful decision"

 

US Secretary of State Antony Blinkcrapinberg came under fire following his announcement on Friday that Israel’s presence in Judea and Samaria is “inconsistent with international law”, reversing the policy of the Trump administration on the issue.

Former US Ambassador to Israel David Friedman wrote on X, “Blinken is 100% wrong. I researched this for over a year with many State Department lawyers. There is nothing illegal about Jews living in their biblical homeland. Indeed, Undersecretary of State Eugene Rostow, also the Dean of the Yale Law School (who negotiated UNSCR 242), stated that Israel has the best legal claim to Judea and Samaria.”

“For Blinken to announce this in the middle of a war and when the Jewish Sabbath already has begun in Israel is unconscionable,” added Friedman.

House Speaker Mike Johnson shared Friedman’s post and wrote, “Ambassador David Friedman is absolutely correct. This is a shameful decision.”

“The Jewish people have a historic and legal right to live in the land of Israel including in Judea and Samaria - the biblical heartland. It is an absolute disgrace the Biden administration would issue this decision, especially as Israel fights terrorists on multiple fronts that seek Israel’s destruction and as more than 130 hostages remain in Gaza,” added Johnson.

“The Biden Administration must stop undermining Israel and facilitating efforts to delegitimize Israel. It is misguided and unconscionable,” he concluded.

Senator Tom Cotton (R-AR) wrote, “The Pompeo doctrine simply recognized reality: Judea and Samaria are the homeland of the Jewish people.”

“It’s shameful that the Biden Administration reversed this and rewarded terrorists—all to help Biden’s poll numbers in Michigan,” he added.

Senator Bill Hagerty (R-TN) also shared Ambassador Friedman’s post and wrote, “Ambassador Friedman is correct. The Biden Admin’s disgraceful reversal undermines a close friend while rewarding the genocidal terrorists they are fighting. It is not a legal assessment. It is a political calculation meant to appease the pro-Hamas radical left. Shameful.”

Blinken, speaking at a news conference during a trip to Buenos Aires, said the United States was disappointed by Israel's announcement on Thursday of plans to approve new housing units in Judea and Samaria in response to the shooting attack near Maaleh Adumim.

Blinken said the new construction is counterproductive to reaching an enduring peace and then added, "They're also inconsistent with international law. Our administration maintains a firm opposition to settlement expansion, and in our judgment this only weakens, doesn't strengthen Israel's security.”

Blinken thus effectively revoked the so-called “Pompeo Doctrine”, which deemed Jewish towns in Judea and Samaria “not per se inconsistent with international law.”

In 2019, then-Secretary of State Mike Pompeo implemented the policy, overturning a 1978 memo by State Department legal adviser Herbert Hansell, which characterized “settlements” as “illegal”

New York Times Melts Down After Israel Points Out Photographer’s Ties With Hamas

 

The New York Times lashed out in fury at Israel after one of its photographers was accused of being embedded with Hamas and having foreknowledge of the October 7 attack.

The photographer, Yousef Masoud, was recently given a Polk award for his work, following which the Israeli Consulate in New York sent a letter to the Polk Committee accusing the photojournalist of having deep ties with Hamas, along with another Times photographer, Samar Abu Elouf.

The letter said that Masoud had “public connections to Hamas and well-documented foreknowledge of the terror group’s plans for invasion, mortally compromising the integrity of his reporting.”

Stung by the accusation, the Times went on the attack, calling Masoud’s ties to Hamas a “fabrication” and “provably false.”

Look Carefully at These Photos and Tell me What you See?

 

Did you look? 

So what did you see?

Naaaa! It's not what you think. 

You won't believe this!

These are "shiva" houses!

They are sitting "shiva"!!!!!

Now look again! Can you tell???

These photos are of the Viznitzer Rebbes sitting Shiva! 

Not together, chas ve'sholom, though they are brothers. 

Notice the chairs the rebbes are sitting on?

Am I the only one thinking that this is insane?

The Skverer Rebbe of Monsey is also sitting Shiva, the same way, with "farenches" the benches that are set up like in a stadium, with hundreds of chassidim ogling .

Is this normal? 

I don't get it, is there no decency and humility left among our leaders??

British Chareidim Demand in Galut that the Goyim Not interfere in Jewish Education

In the Goyishe Year 1290, England, the "malchus shel chessed" expelled all its Jews from its borders. 

Approximately 300 hundred years later William Shakespeare wrote The Merchant of Venice and in it he describes a Venetian Jewish moneylender named Shylock with the most vicious characterizations, describing his greediness and vengefulness. Mind you, Shakespeare had never even met a Jew! 

Under the British Mandate in 1929, the British animals in then Palestine stood by as Jews were raped, pillaged, and massacred in Chevron, by the bloodthirsty Arabs. 

In 1940's The British were in many ways worse than the Nazis as they turned back boats to Germany that were loaded with Jews who had escaped Concentration camps, and sent to be gassed.  Those that they did allow to pass thru they shipped to Cypris and placed them in Concentration Camps under horrible conditions, much ink has been spilled writing and recording the atrocities by the British savages. 1948 did not come soon enough. 

These rabbis protesting the Brits are the same ones that pull out the "Three Oaths" cards when it suits them. One of those "oaths" is "not to antagonize the goyim, especially in Galut" 

But listening to those speeches demanding that Goyim leave them alone, is hypocritical. If you live in the Galut, then follow the teachings that you preach and throw at the Zionists. Keep quiet and wait for the Mashiach to pick you up by the Eagles and bring you back home!

Mark Levin & Dershowitz say that Biden has turned on Israel and now backs Hamas!

 

The Jew Blinken Says Israeli Settlements in Eretz Yisrael Are Illegal

 

 Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Israeli settlements are “inconsistent with international law,” putting new pressure on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and reversing a Trump-era argument that construction in Palestinian territory could go ahead.

Blinken’s remarks Friday at a press conference in Buenos Aires, Argentina, marked a return to a 1978 finding by the State Department’s legal adviser that also found the settlements violate the Geneva Conventions. In 2019, former President Donald Trump’s secretary of state, Michael Pompeo, announced the US was abandoning the 1978 decision, saying it “hasn’t advanced the cause of peace.”

“Our administration maintains firm opposition to settlement expansion,” Blinken said Friday. “In our judgment, this only weakens, it doesn’t strengthen, Israel’s security.” 

He added that new settlements are “inconsistent with international law,” language that’s drawn directly from the 1978 memo.

The conclusion marks a fresh break from Netanyahu for President Joe Biden’s administration, which has grown increasingly concerned about the high civilian death toll of Israel’s military campaign in the Gaza Strip in the months since Hamas militants launched an attack on Oct 7. Biden has also sought to restrain settler violence in the West Bank. 

“We are simply reaffirming the fundamental conclusion that these settlements are inconsistent with international law,” National Security Council spokesman John Kirby told reporters Friday. “This is a position that has been consistent over a range of Republican and Democratic administrations. If there’s an administration that is being inconsistent, it was the previous one.”

Biden has called on Netanyahu to hold off the next stage of military action in Gaza, aimed at the city of Rafah in south, until he can provide a clear plan to help civilians. Earlier this month, Biden signed an executive order allowing the US to impose sanctions on settlers and officials involved in violence against Palestinians.

Thousands of New Settlement Homes in Response to Ma’ale Adumim Terror Attack

 

Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich announced on Thursday evening that a decision was made to build thousands of new homes in response to the murderous terror attack this morning outside of Ma’ale Adumim.

Smotrich called it “an appropriate Zionist response.”

In the discussion that took place tonight, with the participation of Prime Minister Netanyahu, the Minister of Defense, the Minister of Finance and the Minister in the Ministry of Defense and the Minister for Strategic Affairs, it was decided to convene the Supreme Planning Council to approve thousands of housing units in the following communities in Judea and Samaria:

Maale Adumim about 2,350 units.
Kedar about 300 units.
Efrat 694 units.

Minister of Finance and Minister in the Ministry of Defense Bezalel Smotrich declared [translated], “Let every terrorist plotting to harm us know that any raising of a hand against the citizens of Israel will be met with a blow of death and destruction and the deepening of our eternal grip on the entire Land of Israel.”

Gush Etzion Regional Council Mayor, and Yesha Council Chairman, Shlomo Ne’eman said this about tonight’s government decision to fast-track the approval of thousands of new housing units in Judea and Samaria:

“We praise the decision to convene the Higher Planning Council in order to approve thousands of housing units in Ma’ale Adumim, Kedar, Gush Etzion, and Efrat, and thank the Prime Minister, Defense Minister, Finance Minister, and Minister of Strategic Affairs, on a Zionist response to this morning’s terrible terrorist attack. The development of Judea and Samaria is the appropriate response to anyone who tries to harm us or undermine our rights to the land. We hope that the rest of the housing units awaiting approval will be greenlighted as soon as possible. There is no need to wait for another deadly attack. Our enemies should know that we do not cower from acts of terrorism. We must continue to develop and establish our hold on all parts of the Land of Israel.”

Bibi to Biden "Ich kock dich uhn! ......"A pox on you"

 

Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu on Thursday night submitted to the political and security cabinet his proposal for the day after Hamas in Gaza. The document contains principles that reflect a broad public consensus of the goals of the war, including establishing a civilian alternative to the rule of the terrorist organization in the Gaza Strip.

The plan contradicts several key points in President Joe Biden and Secretary of State Antony Blinken’s ambitious plans for the same day after. Israel will carve out a wide swath of land along the Gaza border to establish a security zone, presumably to shoot any local Arab who dares to come near the fence. The Americans have insisted on several occasions that Israel is not to acquire any territory inside Gaza. Also: Israel will determine who does what in Gaza for the foreseeable future. Egypt, the US, the Arab states, and anyone else out there are welcome to lend a hand, but no one tells Israel what to do.

Refreshing.

UNWRA will be expelled from Gaza, no ifs and buts. Israel will seek better agencies to care for the civilian population, the kind that doesn’t encourage terrorism, there must be some of those left.

Finally: no unilateral declarations of a Palestinian State, and no forced two-state solutions.

So, here’s how it works:

‘House of horrors’ as Harav Ahron Ramati Shlitah takes cushy deal after pleading guilty to enslaving 30 women

 A Jerusalem rabbi accused of enslaving 30 women in a cult-like home dubbed the “house of horrors” has pleaded guilty to lesser charges in return for a lax sentence of community service and cash compensation to his victims, according to reports.

Aharon Ramati had been charged with enslavement, minor assault and obstruction of justice among other charges, but reached a plea agreement for “holding people in conditions akin to slavery,” according to YNetNews.

The deal came with a cushy sentence of just nine months of community service and $34,000 in damages owed to his victims — and was reached after 11 of the women declined to testify against Ramati because they were too traumatized to face him.

The case grabbed headlines in Israel after Ramati’s 2020 arrest, with police labeling the rabbi a “cult leader” who used violence, intimidation and tales of eternal damnation to indoctrinate and control his victims.

“They had to ask him for permission for everything and consult him over every simple action,” police told the Times of Israel after his arrest.

Ramati began gathering women around him in 2008 by presenting himself as an enlightened religious leader who knew the “true path” to salvation, YNet reported.

He invited the women to live in his home, which he’d renamed the “Be’er Miriam Seminary,” where they lived on moldering mattresses spread throughout three bedrooms, had no hot water and faced constant leaks and decrepit conditions.

Ramati moved to a neighboring home as the ranks of his followers grew. At some points, more than 30 women were living within the cramped confines of the house, with some reports saying as many as 50 women along with children lived there, according to prosecutors.

The rabbi charged the women about $220 per month for a bed in the house, or about $170 per month to share a mattress with another resident, according to YNet.

While at the house, the women attended daily lessons where Ramati plied them with his teachings — which included renouncing all personal desires to focus their energies toward spirituality.

Ramati filled the void of personal responsibility for them, prosecutors argued, making all decisions for them and in turn taking large portions of their pay from jobs they worked outside of classes.

To control the women, prosecutors said Ramati frightened them by telling them they would face horrific harm at the hands of other-worldly forces if they disobeyed him, isolated them from their families and turned the women against one another to police each other.

One common punishment in the house was forcing the women to burn their fingers in fire to “simulate hell,” the Times of Israel reported, or making them eat hot peppers.

Rumors about Ramati’s conduct have surrounded him for years.

He was first arrested in 2015 but was released after several members of his group testified on his behalf.

American Oct. 7 Survivors Sue Associated Press For Aiding & Abetting Hamas

Several survivors of the October 7th Hamas massacre are suing the Associated Press of aiding and abetting Hamas by using freelance journalists embedded in the murderous terror organization, the New York Post reported on Wednesday.

The plaintiffs are Americans and Israeli-Americans who survived the massacre at the Nova music festival near Be’eri as well as family members of the victims. They are suing AP for damages under the Antiterrorism Act in a federal complaint, filed in the Southern District of Florida Wednesday evening by lawyers from the nonprofit National Jewish Advocacy Center.

The lawyers accuse AP of “materially supporting terrorism” by paying photojournalists affiliated with Hamas for photos taken during and after the October 7th assault.

“There is no doubt that AP’s photographers participated in the October 7th massacre, and that AP knew, or at the very least should have known, through simple due diligence, that the people they were paying were longstanding Hamas affiliates and full participants in the terrorist attack that they were also documenting,” the complaint states.

It also lists the names of four photographers whose images were purchased by AP, stating that they are “known Hamas associates who were gleefully embedded with the Hamas terrorists during the October 7th attacks.”

But the complaint mainly focuses on one photojournalist, Hassan Eslaiah, who was accused of being affiliated with Hamas even before October 7th. Eslaiah, who photographed some of the earliest photos of the attack, is accused in the complaint of closely accompanying the Hamas monsters as they tortured and murdered Israelis.

Eslaiah, who in 2020 was photographed with Yahya Sinwar as the Hamas leader was kissing his cheek, denies he had any advance knowledge of the attack or is tied to Hamas, according to the New York Times, which was also criticized for using his photos. Eslaiah did admit that he got a ride back to Gaza after the assault with Hamas terrorists.

According to the company, AP was well aware of Eslaiah’s ties to Hamas but chose to continue to pay for his photos.

“AP willfully chose to turn a blind eye to these facts, and instead profited from its terrorist photographer’s participation in the massacre through its publication of the ‘exclusive’ images, for which it certainly paid a premium, effectively funding a terrorist organization,” the suit alleges.

The Honest Reporting media watchdog first raised questions about the photos taken in the early hours of the Hamas invitation in November, speculating that six Gazan photographers had advance knowledge of the attack because they began “work” so early that day – coincidently on the Israeli-Gazan border.

AP denied the allegation, issuing a statement denying it had any knowledge of the Oct. 7 attack.

“The first pictures AP received from any freelancer show they were taken more than an hour after the attacks began,” AP’s vice president of corporate communications Lauren Easton said in the Nov. 9 statement. “No AP staff were at the border at the time of the attacks, nor did any AP staffer cross the border at any time.”

“We are no longer working with Hassan Eslaiah, who had been an occasional freelancer for AP and other international news organizations in Gaza.”

National Jewish Advocacy Center director Mark Goldfeder slammed AP: “Media organizations do not have any special right to act with impunity and pretend that they don’t know whom they are paying.”

“And as other cases have made clear, it does not matter that the people AP was paying, with whom they had longstanding relationships, were freelancers and not employees; the issue is that AP was furnishing material support to a foreign terrorist organization, not in what capacity the terrorists were cashing the checks.”
