Palestinians try to pull a fast one
The official logo of the new National Committee for the Administration of Gaza (NCAG) was revealed yesterday, and it took Israel by surprise.
According to the Prime Minister’s Office, the original draft of the logo was entirely different.
Israel is opposed to the Palestinian Authority playing a role in the short-term governance of Gaza, so it seems a logo that suggested no PA involvement was originally presented, only to be swapped out at the last minute…with a logo that includes the official Palestinian Authority seal.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reiterated on Monday:

‼️️ Alarming antisemitism in European schools
Some 78% of European teachers have seen students commit antisemitic acts, and 27.4% witnessed nine or more such incidents, according to a survey by the United Nations.
The UN Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) surveyed more than 2,000 teachers in 23 European countries.
Some 61% of teachers cited observing Holocaust denial or distortion, and 44% said that they had seen the use of Nazi symbols.
❗️The trouble is that many teachers themselves seem to harbor antisemitic views.
Among teachers, 16% didn’t consider saying things like “Jews are wealthy” to be antisemitic, and 32% thought that those sorts of statements, which draw on longstanding antisemitic tropes, had “context-dependent” meanings.
A smaller number (13%) of teachers said that believing that “Jews control the global financial system” isn’t antisemitic, and 24% saw such a statement’s meaning as context-dependent.

Following the retirement of Lt. Col. Avichay Adraee, the IDF’s next Arabic-language spokesperson will be his deputy, Maj. Ella Waweya.
Maj. Waweya is well known in Israel for becoming the first Arab Muslim woman to achieve the rank of major.
Prior to that, she became a household name following the release of a series of video clips in which she explained why Israeli Arabs should join, or at least support the IDF. At the time she was a captain, and the monicker “Captain Ella” stuck and is still used today, despite her promotion.
