In a deeply personal moment, he shared about the heartbreaking loss of his son, who was killed over a year ago in Gaza while rescuing hostages from Hamas.

Israeli Ambassador to Ireland Dana Erlich told the Pat Kenny Show on Monday that she was not invited to speak at this year's Holocaust Memorial event in Dublin. This revelation comes as President Michael D Higgins rejected the Ambassador's call for him to cancel an address he is set to deliver at the service. Joining Shane to discuss further was Maurice Cohen Chair of the Jewish Representative Council.
After 470 days of fighting, Israel and Hamas enter its second day of a ceasefire. Israeli Ambassador to Ireland Dana Erlich discusses what will happen in the next stage of the ceasefire.
Israel's Ambassador to Canada, Iddo Moed, is actively monitoring the hourly reports coming out of the Middle East and Washington about negotiations for a deal that would usher in a new ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, paving the way for a gradual release of dozens of Israeli hostages (in exchange for hundreds of Palestinian prisoners held in Israeli custody). According to U.S. and Israeli news sources, Hamas prepared a list of about 33 hostages they are prepared to release. They would start with civilians before handing over female soldiers and others. Moed fervently hopes that the Bibas children, Kfir and Ariel, and their parents will be among the first to be freed after a captivity that's lasted 465 days. But while the negotiations are still happening, Moed calls the process “excruciating” and “painful” for the hostages families, as the release may be joyful—but also possibly heartbreaking. In this special evening edition of The CJN Daily, Moed joins to discuss the possible outcomes of this rapidly evolving story—as well as separate issues that have kept him busy while waiting. His office has been closely monitoring the case of Hassan Diab, a professor in Ottawa who was convicted of terrorism for bombing a synagogue in Paris that resulted in the deaths of four people (including the mother of Moed's personal friend); and the controversial Islamist conference organized by Hizb ut-Tahrir Canada, slated for this weekend until its recent cancellation. What we talked about: Read more about the Israeli Ambassador's views on Canada's blocking arms sales to Israel, funding UNRWA, and his trip to Israel in March 2024 with Melanie Joey and Ya'ara Saks, in The CJN.

Former Israeli Ambassador to the United States Michael Oren slams Democrats for helping to aid Israel's enemies with ‘legal ammunition' after Kamala Harris, Democrat leadership offer little to no support to the Jewish state. Oren says, “the most crucial thing, because we are facing enemies, whether in the south or In the north, Hamas or Hezbollah who hide behind the civilian population, they want us to kill the civilian population, because that's how they get international condemnation of Israel. And they can't kill us with bombs, but they can certainly kill us by legal means, with boycotts and sanctions. So understanding that, and we're going to do everything possible to minimize civilian casualties. That's what we do. Helpful. The United States does not provide ammunition, legal ammunition to our enemies by accusing us of, you know, indiscriminate bombing, by reacting over the top.”See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
//The Wire//2100Z August 7, 2024////ROUTINE////BLUF: UKRAINE LAUNCHES OFFENSIVE INTO KURSK. RIOTS CONTINUE IN U.K. TENSIONS CONTINUE IN MIDDLE EAST AS AIRSPACE CLOSURES INDICATE POTENTIAL COMBAT ACTIONS.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-Eastern Europe: Ukraine launched a comparatively significant offensive operation into the Kursk region of Russia, in what is the largest offensive operation conducted by Ukraine into Russia so far in this war. A salient has emerged as far northeast as the village of Leonidovo, as Ukrainian forces attempt to advance as close to Kursk as possible.AC: This operation has zero chance of being anything other than a last-ditch offensive to strike at something rather than nothing. Only a few hundred soldiers took part in the operation, which despite arguably being Ukraine's most significant offensive of the war, was really more of a small-scale raid and very unlikely to make much strategic difference in terms of ground taken. Ukraine probably hoped to catch the Russians napping, and cause some disruption and inconvenience at best. If that was the extremely low-bar set for this operation, it was certainly a success. The Russian response so far has been debatable. Right now Russian forces are concentrating on the region, and it is not clear as to if the Ukrainian advance on Kursk has slowed or halted yet. If Russian forces are slow to react, or otherwise take a page from the historical events of this exact region 80 years ago, Ukraine might make more gains than they expected for a one-off operation with little chance of success at the onset. In any case, this entire affair is not likely to matter much in the long term, but has resulted in exceptional embarrassment for Russia.Far East: U.S. Ambassador to Japan Rahm Emanuel has boycotted attending the Nagasaki anniversary remembrance ceremony upcoming on August 9th. The reason given for dropping out of the memorial ceremony is related to the mayor of Nagasaki not issuing an invitation to the Israeli Ambassador to the same event. The British Ambassador to Japan has likewise boycotted the event in solidarity. Nagasaki's mayor has stated that the reason for not inviting Israel was not based on political considerations, and that Russian and Belarusian representation was also not invited to the memorial event. AC: Japan probably wanted to avoid political activists crashing the event and disrespecting the memorial services. However, this resulted in an international incident anyway.United Kingdom: Riots continue alongside the persecution of peaceful dissent as the crackdown on speech reaches new heights. Rioters, peaceful demonstrators, and previously-unconcerned citizens alike have organized substantially over the past few days. Police surveillance operations have been specifically targeted by rioters as the U.K. substantially increases facial recognition efforts to identify demonstrators (or even peaceful protesters).Middle East: Anticipation continues as before. Of note, some nations have issued NOTAMs or other aviation notices urging their national airlines to avoid Iranian airspace, or airspace throughout the region at large. AC: So far, there isn't much overlap of these warnings to narrow down the time or day of the expected Iranian counterattack. Egyptian authorities have specified a three-hour window for airspace restrictions over Iran tonight, leading many to believe that the Egyptians may know something others do not. However, very few of these indicators are high confidence at this point; only time will tell what indicators proved to be useful in retrospect. At the moment, few indicators easily point to a specific day or time of impeding combat actions. -----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: The diplomatic spat involving the U.S. in Japan is a reminder of the levels to which the conflict in the Middle East is affecting other diplomatic tensions on

Ambassador Daniel Taub, Israel's ambassador to the United Kingdom between 2011 – 2015 returns to TFJ to relate fascinating and intriguing anecdotes from the time that he represented Israel in Britain. Not since the time of Ambassador Yehuda Aviner, did Israel have an emissary that was so beloved by Anglo-Jewry. Under his watch Israel's relations improved and trade doubled, but already then, Muslim leaders made life difficult for those associated with Israel. A gifted orator and witty intellectual, Daniel Taub not only speaks the Queen's English, but perfectly understands the British mentality. Among his duties was to meet with the Chief Rabbi once a month and Ambassador Taub realized what an opportunity this was, so he quickly would get business out of the way so that he could spend the rest of the time studying with Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks z”l.
