Montreal vote to denounce Israel as “apartheid regime”: The Montreal City Council is slated to hold a vote tonight on a resolution that would declare a genocide in Gaza and denounce “the apartheid regime in Palestine.” The resolution, being promoted by the opposition Projet Montréal party, has stirred controversy in the city and drawn pushback amid an uptick in antisemitic crimes. • An open letter from dozens of local attorneys states that the motion “goes far beyond an expression of solidarity with Palestinian civilians” and questions whether it falls within the powers conferred on the city, noting that city councils do not determine international law. It also noted that Jews were the target of 71% of hate crimes in Canada motivated by religion last year. • Harley Finkelstein, the president of Shopify, posted on X that the motion “is dangerous for Montreal.” He recounts how his family arrived in Montreal in 1956 as refugees, when the city gave them “safety, dignity and the chance to build. ... I am not going to debate a war on the other side of the world, and that is exactly the point. A municipal government has no jurisdiction over foreign policy. Cities do not end wars. This city has been a safe haven for my family and so many others, and it must remain one for everyone.”

No wonder Muslim countries never surrender: Hezbollah leader Naim Qassem, in a speech marking the 20th anniversary of its 2006 war with Israel, delivered a diatribe against the Lebanese government for negotiating with Israel. Even Israelis, he claimed, think Beirut is caving too much. “Listen to this passage by a Jewish thinker named Moshe Yair in the Yediot Achronot newspaper,” Qassem told his tens of thousands of followers. “‘Fortunately for us, [Lebanon] sent a delegation that loves Israel and the United States.’” • There is just one problem: the “thinker” Moshe Yair does not exist. And it’s not the first time Arab media has cited this phantom Israeli writer, though he more often goes by “Moshe Meir.” Supposed writings of “Moshe Yair/Meir” claims that Israelis are fleeing the country “by the millions” or says that Hezbollah is invincible. But Qassem appeared to be the most high-profile use of the contrivance yet. • The fake journalist has been cited by respectable lawmakers and media personalities across the Muslim world to convince themselves that Israel was on the brink of collapse, sometimes adding “This is the Israeli Moshe Meir, not me.”

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent: “I want to emphasize that we are spreading out across the world as we speak, that you will see a wave of sanctions when you leave this meeting today... and you will see a major announcement of a financial institution being sanctioned by the end of this week.”

Supreme Court Hands Trump Victory On Mail-In Voting" • The Supreme Court on lifted a lower-court injunction blocking President Trump’s administration from implementing his executive order restricting mail-in ballots ahead of the November midterms.

Trump has vowed to end mail-in voting nationwide. • The legal battle is expected to continue. A lower-court judge ruled Trump lacked authority to dictate how states administer federal elections, while the administration argued the states’ lawsuit was premature.

His most infamous creation, which portrayed a Jewish man using grotesquely exaggerated facial characteristics, a beard and hands rubbing together in a pose intended to suggest greed, appeared in 1992. Long after its original appearance, the cartoon took on a new life online, becoming widely circulated as an antisemitic meme. • Bougas never publicly confirmed that he was responsible for the cartoon, known on the internet as the “Jew-bwa-ha-ha.gif.” But associates said that he openly discussed it with them.

Draft issue splintering chareidi electorate in Eretz Yisroel: The extraordinary issue of the military draft confounding the chareidi community in Eretz Yisroel, with its attendant mass arrests of bnei Torah, is fragmenting the frum parties is ways not seen in decades. • The parties — Shas, Agudah, Degel and a new party called Hatzibur Hachareidi opened by those who say the traditional parties have botched the draft problem — are each agonizing over how far their voters are willing to express their displeasure. Degel, the party of the litvishe bnei Torah headed by Rav Dov Landau, is adamant that no frum person be drafted. They disapproved of what Shas and Agudah did two months ago when they pushed through a law temporarily halting arrests, and the high court’s halting the law led to recriminations between the parties. In addition, Shas blames Agudah for leaving the coalition a half year ago, pushing their hand when they weren’t ready. • Here’s a summary of how the parties are dealing with their voters: • Shas: The party founded by Rav Ovadia Yosef 40 years ago for Sefardim to have a voice has lost more than half its strength since its peak 25 years ago. Following the petirah of Rav Ovadia and his successor, Rav Shalom Cohen, the party has been led by a decentralized moetzet headed by Rav Moshe Maya. Rav Maya told party leader Aryeh Deri this week that Shas should not have another central rabbinic head, but asked him to request of former Rishon Litzion Rav Yitzchak Yosef, a son of Rav Ovadia, to headline the party’s campaign events; Rav Yitzchak, despite his previous criticism of Deri, agreed, beginning with the campaign launch event on Thursday. The theme, as usual, is sticking to traditional values. As for the draft, they oppose street protests and say that only legislation will solve it. • Agudah: A mix of chassidishe kehillos, most prominently Ger, Belz and Vizhnitz, it has been the most militant in blaming Prime Minister Netanyahu personally for the draft crisis. The Gerrer rebbe has been trying to leave the coalition for more than a year, finally ordering his representative in Agudah, party leader Yitzchak Goldknopf, to do so after Shavuos. Of all the frum parties, Agudah’s voters are the most upset at how they handled it. Many of them are expected to stay home, vote for Hatzibur Hachareidi or for Likud or Smotrich. As for the draft, they have increasingly begun sanctioning street protests, something that was nearly unheard of before a year ago. • Degel: Degel has in recent years emerged as the bigger party within the United Torah Judaism party, eclipsing Agudah several years ago. They’ve been threatening for several election cycles to run independently but always ultimately ran alongside Agudah out of fear that Agudah won’t cross the electoral threshold. This time they are openly suggesting that want to run independently unless Agudah cedes to them the right to have their leader, Moshe Gafni, replace Goldknopf as party chairman and give them the first four spots on the list. As for the draft, they oppose street protests but don’t trust Netanyahu that he will get a law through to solve the issue. • Aside from these, there is the Peleg Yerushalmi which opposes all negotiations and has been leading the street protests that have periodically closed down main highways. Their people do not vote as a matter of principle. There is also Hatzibur Hachareidi, a social network that has recently transitioned to a political party emphasizing assistance to anyone who wants to serve in the army or go to work.

You're a brave guy, but I don't think you'd be standing out there when they have a machine gun nest.

No, I don't care who you are, they leave. • And it's very hard to protest when you have people that are willing to shoot you and kill you. And that's why they're not protesting.”

The way it works is that users copy a hateful or misleading post and paste it into the www.counterex.com app. The AI instantly analyzes the text and explicitly names the specific antisemitic trope being used — for example, dual loyalty, Holocaust denial or collective guilt — and generates a concise response to disprove the claim. The user can then modify it before choosing to post.

How elections matter: Slovenia used to be one of the most anti-Israel countries in Europe. But there was an election last month and a new government is now in place protecting Israel from the EU’s notorious one-sided resolutions. • Prime Minister Janez Janša flexed his muscle this week when he vetoed an EU resolution that would have condemned Israel’s decision to build a new community in the strategic E1 area in Yerushalayim. Aside for the fact that Palestinians claim the area as theirs, the community will cut the West Bank in two. • Instead, the resolution was downgraded to a statement by the EU high representative for foreign affairs, which carries much less diplomatic weight. Janša said he was merely ending the EU’s “vicious circle of losing credibility in the face of constant disproportionate condemnations of Israel for every move,” noting that they haven’t said anything about the extermination of entire villages of Christians in Nigeria or the massacres of its own people by Hamas. • It is an interesting development. Israel used to rely on Hungarian prime minister Viktor Orbán to routinely soften EU criticism but Orbán lost office in April. The next month, Janša won the election in Slovenia and turned the country's Middle East policy upside down.
