In a Church Times interview following his recent West Bank visit, Archbishop of York Stephen Cottrell described Israeli military actions in Gaza as deliberately indiscriminate and genocidal acts, while labeling the West Bank a regime of apartheid and ethnic cleansing through settler expansion.

Chief Rabbi Sir Ephraim Mirvis rebuked the remarks as irresponsible and morally inverted, planning a personal letter to Cottrell amid growing divides among UK faith leaders over the Gaza conflict now in its second year.

In 2025 remarks, Republican Senator John Kennedy from Louisiana called out what he saw as massive waste in USAID's $40 billion annual spending, citing funds for a transgender clinic in India, meals to al-Qaeda-linked groups, and aid to Hamas-tied organizations in Gaza.

Conservatives celebrated the moves amid $39 trillion U.S. debt concerns, while critics warned of 600,000-760,000 deaths from halted programs; by 2026, Congress restored some aid with stricter rules.

A post highlighted a word in a 5th-century Syriac lectionary manuscript, interpreted by some as "Mnhammna" or "the praised one" referring to Muhammad as prophesied by Jesus.
