Take action before the Trump-Netanyahu meeting: Sign this call to end the war, free the hostages, and provide humanitarian aid On Monday, July 7th, Prime Minister Netanyahu will be in Washington to meet with President Trump. Speculation is rampant about the possibility that this meeting signals progress towards ending the war in Gaza – possibly in a manner that jump-starts talks to normalize relations between Israel and other Arab states. This war needs to come to an end — and now! We echo the calls from the families of the hostages to end this war so their loved ones can come home. We struggle to bear the drumbeat of news reports about more dead hostages, soldiers, and Palestinian civilians. And we know that the suffering of the people of Gaza needs to end. | |
What happened at the Trump-Netanyahu meeting?
July 8, 2025 - 12:00pm As the meeting date nears, the rumors (and the Truth Social posts) are coming fast and furious. Nobody really knows yet what this meeting means. Some of the questions being asked include: Is a ceasefire about to be announced? Will it be genuinely linked to a process to finally end the Gaza war? When will the hostages be set free? And when can Gazans get unfettered access to humanitarian supplies? To help us make sense of all of this, please join New Jewish Narrative for a webinar on Tuesday, July 8, at noon (Eastern Time). We'll have a conversation with two experts in Washington foreign policy: NJN's Madeleine Cereghino and journalist Ron Kampeas. | |

After Iran, Is Trump Israel's Messiah on a White Donkey or a Felon on a Populist Rampage?
By Ori Nir in Haaretz on July 1, 2025 You probably didn't know that in gematria, the Jewish practice of assigning numeric values to letters of the Hebrew alphabet, the name Donald Trump equals Messiah Son of David. Yes, that's right. Prominent Israelis, not just odd rabbis but people like Communications Minister Shlomo Karhi have spoken about this since U.S. President Donald Trump was first elected in 2016. | |
