Benny Gantz, leader of the Blue and White Party in the Knesset and a minister without portfolio in Israel’s special “War Cabinet” hosted a delegation of people from AIPAC (the America Israel Public Affairs Committee) in Jerusalem on Tuesday.

The delegation was led by AIPAC president Michael Tuchin.

“As an outspoken leader of his community,” said Gantz, “Michael’s home was targeted and vandalized on Thanksgiving Eve in an unacceptable hate crime.”

“Facing an alarming rise in antisemitism globally and bigotry towards the one and only Jewish state,” he added, “we must all act to protect Jewish communities around the world.”

Benny Gantz is a former chief of staff of the Israel Defense Forces and a former Israeli defense minister.

The shooting guard, 22, is the son of legendary Maccabi Tel Aviv basketball star Derrick Sharp.
The demonstration caused heavy traffic, including a chain accident on Highway 1 in which a pregnant woman was moderately injured.
More than 700 injured as a state of emergency is declared and international aid is rushed to the South American country.
Basil Sweid, 32, a driver in the military’s 75th Battalion, was “a virtuous man of good character,” his city council said.
Banning brit milah would prevent Jewish life from flourishing in Europe, said Katharina von Schnurbein.
“If this is false information, negotiations would end, immediately!” he said.
