I am starting with "media" this week because as they said in Devil Wears Prada 2: Journalism F@#$N Matters.
The New York Times has a choice. It can report on the horrific testimonies of Gazan women and children raped by Hamas, or it can write glowing profiles of pro-Hamas influencers like Hasan Piker. This is more than a missed story by one news organization. It's an industry-wide pattern of erasure. As CAMERA documented in January, outlets like NPR have spent months minimizing or denying the reality of Hamas’s program of mass sexual assault.
New York Magazine has a choice. It can report the horrific actions of Islamists or it can write glowing profiles of pro-Hamas celebrity activists like Mahmoud Khalil. https://www.camera.org/article/mahmoud-khalil-what-the-media-isnt-telling-you/
The Wall Street Journal has a choice. It can report on Hezzbollah's violations of the ceasefire, links to Iran, and being a terrorist, criminal organization or it can describe it as a "miracle of resistance." https://www.wsj.com/world/middle-east/hezbollah-is-here-to-stay-and-has-no-immediate-plans-to-disarm-spokesman-says-b21c6b75
AP chooses to trust Hamas. "The ministry, part of the Hamas-led government, maintains detailed casualty records that are seen as reliable..."
How a Fake 'Journalists Killed' Story Spread Around the World
Politico - Is it impartial for a news source to advocate for the demise of any nation? Mathias Döpfner, the CEO of Politico’s parent company, Axel Springer, doubled down in defense of the German publishing giant’s corporate values suggesting to journalists that if they do not feel fully comfortable with a mission statement that includes support for Israel’s right to exist and other principles known as “the essentials,” they should find work elsewhere.

CANADA
B’nai Brith Canada identifies the “demonization” of Zionism as a key driver of antisemitism - 6,800 antisemitic incidents in one year demand more than outrage https://www.bnaibrith.ca/bnai-brith-canada-special-report-a-national-crisis-of-antisemitism/
IRAN
Iran called on individuals in the UK to “sacrifice” themselves - "For years, the Islamic Republic has pursued a strategy that extends beyond its borders—shaping narratives, cultivating loyalty, and applying pressure within diaspora communities and open societies. What we are now witnessing is that strategy becoming more explicit, more assertive, and more willing to test the limits of what can be said and done on British soil." - Catherine Perez-Shakdamhttps://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/04/28/give-up-your-life-for-your-homeland-iran-tells-diaspora/
Iran-linked hackers, Handala, publish personal data on US Marines in Mideast - Handala has long presented itself as a pro-Palestine hacktivist group. But cybersecurity firms and, most recently, the Department of Justice, have said the hackers are nothing more than a front group for Iran’s Ministry of Intelligence and Security. https://san.com/cc/iran-linked-hackers-publish-personal-data-on-us-marines-in-mideast/ISRAEL
Israel is still confronting tunnels, terrorists, and rocket fire from Lebanon and attacks from Gaza. The lies against Israel are incessant. This week UN rapporteur Francesca Albanese along with Owen Jones spread a disgusting lie about Israelis (I won't repeat it here, but you can click this link and this one for more info), we learned that ICC prosecutor who brought charges against Israel was not only facing sexual harrassment charges but was also paid by Qatar, and a Palestinian stole a car from an Israeli citizen then proceeded to run over two Palestinian women . Israel haters falsely claimed it was an “Israeli settler” who intentionally ran over the women. Now that Palestinians admitted it was a Palestinian driver- those who spread this lie are silent. We're ending the week with another false narrative: A nun was attacked in Israel. A real incident. A real crime. The clip you've probably seen cuts off what doesn’t fit the narrative. What’s missing? Bystanders stepping in to protect her and an arrest. The perp is sitting in jail now. It’s a criminal act cynically used to smear an entire people.
ITALY
Beppe Sala, Mayor of Milano, following the attack on the Jewish Brigade's group that marched on April 25 to commemorate the Liberation from the Nazis said, "The mistake was carrying Israeli flags. At this stage, it's common sense to avoid them." In other words, it's not the fascists that attacked the Jews that are the problem, it's the Jews! Meanwhile, no comment on the Hezbollah flags we've seen in Milano. PALESTINIANS/FATAH/HAMAS

Sweden made a historic decision: it will no longer use the term “Islamophobia,” coined by the Muslim Brotherhood, because it is a politically manipulated concept aimed at silencing criticism of Islam. https://en.abna24.com/news/1808183/Sweden-Drops-Use-of-the-Term-Islamophobia

UAE
After leaving OPEC, the UAE can now freely increase its oil production, thanks to the Fujairah Pipeline that bypasses the Strait of Hormuz.
UK
Assaults reported daily upon Jews and Jewish institutitions because Antizionism is a violent hate movement. Mark Rowley, head of the Metropolitan Police, said British Jews are being targeted by a wide range of extremist actors, which he linked in part to the influence of social media. At a time when the British Jewish community is under attack, Plaid Cymru a Nationalist Socialist party who hates Jews is about to take power in Wales. Their activitsts out campaigning for votes have been recorded stating that what happened on Oct 7 was "armed resisitance" and "a right. https://www.politicshome.com/news/article/muslim-voter-group-endorse-greens-plaid-cymru-welsh-election https://www.iwa.wales/agenda/2011/05/what-is-plaid-cymru-for/
UN
The Islamic Republic of Iran was elected as one of 34 Vice Presidents for the 11th Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) Review Conference. This appointment was met with strong objections from the U.S., UK, France, Germany, UAE, and others. https://www.iranintl.com/en/202604278373
USA
Antizionism is used to remove Jews from public life. It has nothing to do with Israel; it's all about latent antisemitism and racism. A Park Slope Food Coop was meeting to consider a proposed boycott of Israeli goods when a member declared, “Jewish supremacism is a problem in this country,” and compared Jews to Nazis. The vile remarks, which were made over Zoom by a coop member with a screen name of Michael Huarachi, prompted applause from at least 50 people who were attending the meeting in person
