The opportunity to normalize ties between Israel and Saudi Arabia could end in early 2024, US Republican Senator Lindsey Graham told reporters in Jerusalem on Monday, underscoring that Riyadh was open to such a move.
“For Saudi Arabia to recognize Israel, a Jewish state, as a legitimate entity in the Middle East is the ultimate game changer,” he said.
(April 17, 2023 / JNS) Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) met with Israeli Foreign Minister Eli Cohen on Monday in Jerusalem, where the two men discussed expanding the Abraham Accords and addressing the Iranian threat.
The congressman is visiting the Jewish state after a trip to Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, where he met with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.

A senior Israeli official on Sunday confirmed Israel's involvement with the U.S. to bring about an end to hostilities in Sudan after an attempted coup. Israelis were talking to both General Abdel Fattah Burhan who heads the Sovereign Council, governing the country, and General Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo who heads the opposition Rapid Support Forces, (RSF) both parties to talks with Israel ahead of the establishment of ties.

Hamas delegation to visit Saudi Arabia after years of tensions – The delegation is visiting the Kingdom to perform Umrah, but has „not ruled out“ holding meetings with Saudi officials as well | The Jerusalem Post
A Hamas delegation led by the movement’s leader, Ismail Haniyeh, was set to visit Saudi Arabia on Sunday after years of tense relations, Palestinian media outlets reported.
The delegation is visiting Saudi Arabia to perform Umrah, a nonobligatory Islamic pilgrimage to Mecca, but has “not ruled out” holding meetings with Saudi officials as well, according to Hamas-affiliated Al Resalah news site.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu may have thought that he was initiating a truce in the battle over judicial reform when he paused efforts to pass his legislative initiative. But the demonstrations against the effort to introduce some democratic checks and balances into the system have continued, despite the Passover holiday and a series of deadly terror attacks within a matter of days. The debate about it also continues elsewhere with the sympathies of largely liberal American Jewish organizational leaders clearly in evidence as the warm welcome afforded to Opposition Leader Yair Lapid in New York showed this week.
Algerien
Juden haben in Algerien eine fast zweitausend Jahre zurückreichende Geschichte. Manche Theorien sprechen von einer Anwesenheit von Juden bereits in vorrömischer Zeit, doch gibt es dafür keine Belege. Aussagekräftige archäologische Funde gehen bis ins erste Jahrhundert u. Z. zurück, in dem sich infolge der Zerstörung des Tempels in Jerusalem viele Juden im nordafrikanischen Raum niederließen.

“Death to Israel. Death to the Jews.”  Shockingly, these chants were heard at “anti-Israel” protests in the Berlin neighborhoods of Kreuzberg and Neukölln, over Passover.
The demonstrations were co-organized by a group called Samidoun – part of a network of NGOs connected to the Popular Front Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), designated as a terrorist organization by the EU, US, Canada and Israel. (In March alone, the PFLP took responsibility for two separate shootings against Israelis)
This incident serves as just the latest reminder of the close connection between antisemitism, terrorism, and the network of virulently anti-Israel NGOs.

This week, in a three-part series on government-controlled Al Arabiya television, Saudi Arabia served the Palestinian leadership with a writ of divorce and a stinging bill of particulars that explained the break-up. Delivered by Prince Bandar bin Sultan, the country’s leading elder statesman, it brutally laid out the failures of Palestinian leaders going back more than 70 years. It also suggests the futility of present Palestinian policies and the grim future it will bring the people it is supposed to represent....

ODESA, Ukraine (JTA) – A year after Rabbi Mendy Wolff spirited 120 children and staff away from the Mishpacha Orphanage in this war-torn country to the safety of Berlin, he is preparing to bring them home.
That’s not because the war is over — far from it. One year after Russian tanks first rolled into Ukraine, fighting grinds on and much of Ukraine has been plunged into austerity conditions.
Volker Beck saß über 20 Jahre lang für die Grünen im Bundestag. Jetzt ist er unter anderem Lehrbeauftragter für Religionspolitik an der Ruhr-Uni Bochum. Gemeinsam mit der Bildungsstätte Anne Frank hat er Eckpunkte für ein Gesetz erarbeitet, das die Finanzierung der parteinahen Stiftungen rege...
As one of the UK’s delegates to the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA), it’s something of an occupational hazard that I spend a lot of time reading about antisemitism, in all its guises – verbal abuse, physical attacks, online trolling, harassment, intimidation, Far Right conspiracy theories, Far Left conspiracy theories; the list goes on.

The new Deputy Secretary General of the Muslim Council of Britain (MCB) reportedly praised the founder of the antisemitic genocidal terrorist group, Hamas.
In 2015, Mohammed Kozbar allegedly visited the grave of Sheikh Ahmed Yassin and described him as “the master of the martyrs of resistance, the mujahid [holy warrior] sheikh, the teacher,” according to the JC.
Mr Kozbar also reportedly met senior Hamas leaders Ismail Haniyeh and Mahmoud al-Zahar...

Am 5. Januar teilte der sogenannte „Kreisverband“ Rhein-Erft der militant antisemitischen Neonaziorganisation „Die Rechte“ – die sich zum juristischen Selbstschutz seit Mai 2012 als „Partei“ bezeichnete – scheinbar Überraschendes mit: Die Selbstauflösung nach zehn Jahren. Der Rhein-Erft Kreis in NRW war seit Jahrzehnten ein Zentrum harter neonazistischer Kleingruppen. Diese zeichnete sich seit jeher vor allem durch „Einschüchterung und Militanz“ aus und testete über Jahrzehnte die Grenzen der Strafbarkeit aus. Der Vorsitzende im Kreisverband ist der vorbestrafte Neonazi Markus Walter: Der 1991 geborene Walter hatte sich bereits als Jugendlicher als Neonazi und überzeugter Antisemit zu profilieren versucht.
Die Kriegsstimmung in Russland ist eine Gefahr für das russische Judentum. Das befürchten Mitglieder der jüdischen Gemeinden sowie Aktivisten gegen den Antisemitismus. Einer von ihnen ist Natan Sharansky, prominenter Sowjet-Dissident und ehemaliger israelischer Vizepremierminister.
The US Supreme Court on Tuesday declined to hear the appeal of a newspaper suing the University of Arkansas (U of A) over a state law requiring contractors to affirm that they are not boycotting the state of Israel. As a result, the Eighth Circuit’s ruling upholding the law stands in a significant legal victory for opponents of the boycott, divestment and sanctions (BDS) movement against Israel.
With Frances Black’s Occupied Territories Bill languishing in the Dáil after being blocked on foot of legal advice that the Bill exceeded Ireland’s trade competence under EU regulations, the IPSC and others launched an EU Citizens Initiative in 2021 designed to gather support for an EU-wide ban on “both importing products originating in illegal settlements in occupied territories and exporting to such territories”.
