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. He emphasized that his criticism targets state policies, not Judaism or Jewish people, and supports Church divestment from occupation-enabling companies. 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.

The Jacobin article, posted by Netanyahu without comment on Friday, cites U.S. documents and leaked emails claiming Epstein boasted of aiding Barak's bid against him, including business ties and unverified intelligence links. Barak dismissed it as nonsense from an antisemitic source during a security forum in Canada, noting their meetings began publicly in 2003 via Shimon Peres and were business-focused. Bennett condemned the share for amplifying conspiracy theories that hurt Israel's security, confirming with ex-Mossad chiefs that no such U.S. operations occurred. The exchange highlights ongoing political tensions, with no official intelligence response and Epstein's claims unverified.

Wichtigste Erkenntnis

Israeli leaders clashed publicly after Prime Minister Netanyahu shared a report alleging Jeffrey Epstein's involvement in Ehud Barak's 2019 election campaign. The move drew swift backlash from former PM Naftali Bennett, who called it deeply harmful.

Posted on December 27 by pro-Israel account VividProwess, the video gained over 15,000 likes and thousands of replies labeling the act unhinged, with jokes about stereotypes and mental health stats from Pew Research showing 40% of white liberal women aged 30-49 with prior diagnoses. The protest draws from 'cacerolazo' traditions—Latin American pot-banging to symbolize hunger—revived in 2025 for Gaza's famine warnings, seen in London, Philadelphia, and recent UK actions like a Manchester mall flag display. While critics call it performative, supporters frame it as solidarity amid the Israel-Hamas war's third year and aid-reported food shortages.
