Yisrael Beiteinu leader says election results require “painful compromises,” as United Torah Judaism signals openness to talks and Yair Golan reports “real progress” toward a new coalition.
The president urged political leaders to project a less hostile and more embracing message, saying the country’s actions affect Jews around the world.
The three countries agreed to step up defense-industry cooperation and maritime security coordination amid growing challenges in the Eastern Mediterranean.
The party’s planned appeal centers on alleged use of voter-mobilization apps in the Arab community.
The Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs stated that it “has long called on the Canadian government to ensure that Canada is not used as a safe haven for the IRGC, its operatives or other elements of the regime.”
“When we are strengthening and reinforcing each other, there’s nothing we can’t accomplish and overcome,” Rabbi Mendy Dubrowski, an emissary in Tampa, Fla., told JNS.
“I’ve been on the phone with a lot of unhappy Jewish people from across the country this morning,” B’nai B’rith International CEO Evan Bernstein told JNS. “I think people are scared. They’re nervous.”
“No business should be made to feel unwelcome in our city because of its owner’s identity, heritage or perceived political beliefs,” the Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia said.

The Prime Minister’s Office publicly backs the agreement between Netanyahu and Trump to end nearly $4 billion in annual U.S. military aid by the end of 2026.
Netanyahu’s Likud remains Israel’s largest party, the opposition lacks a clear path to power, and an enlarged Arab bloc complicates coalition arithmetic. With Trump backing Netanyahu and Iran still on the agenda, another election could carry high strategic costs.
The country’s next government will depend on whether its political leaders can reconcile their competing commitments, or whether voters will again be asked to resolve a deadlock that negotiations could not.
Arab parties’ historic gains spark election-fraud probes and debate over Hamas ties.
Political uncertainty could complicate Israel’s ability to sustain military operations, defense spending and long-term strategic commitments as threats persist from Iran to Gaza and Lebanon.
Politics now plays the role religion used to play in most people’s lives. For many their faith is liberalism and the Democrats, with Jewish peoplehood and Israel discarded.
Israel needs a broad coalition, but excluding the leader of the Knesset’s largest party from the outset makes the promise of national unity an illusion.
In his myopic Israeli-centered tale, the continued rejection of peace with Jews isn’t even mentioned.
Perhaps Anthony Albanese should start with himself: by demonstrating that there are consequences for those who deliberately heat it up.

The rout of the GOP by a party now dominated by “progressive” and antisemitic foes of the Jewish state will impact the alliance as well as American Jewish life for the worse.
