Co-founder of Mellanox Technologies, sold to Nvidia in 2019 for $6.8 billion, Waldman opened tech centers in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank, hiring hundreds of Palestinian engineers. He donated $360,000 to an oncology hospital in Gaza.

He participated in Israeli-Palestinian bilateral forums for a diplomatic solution to the conflict. In 2024, he received the Israel Prize, the Jewish state’s highest civilian honor.

On October 7, 2023, his daughter Danielle was massacred at the Re’im festival. She was twenty-four years old.

Venice, May 6, 2026. On the sidelines of the Biennale, Waldman crosses paths with some pro-Palestinian protesters. He approaches. He smiles. He shakes hands with one of them and asks if he wants to make peace. The man replies that Israelis are animals. Then he calls him a murderer. Then he screams. Around them, almost no one seems to react. The video goes around the world.

The Israel-Obsessed Art World Devours Itself

A wild story out of Berlin perfectly encapsulates the anti-Zionist obsessions of the world of arts and culture, as well as the way pro-Pales

by Seth Mandel

Bruguera is—quite famously, though her name is a hint—a Cuban dissident. The Palestinian protesters got in her face and called her “gringa.” They called one of the gallery’s directors, Sam Bardaouil, who is Lebanese, “an Arab with light skin.” In other words, Germans were seeing the familiar sight of anti-Semites marching through town calling anyone with Jewish friends or colleagues a “race traitor.” Onlookers were horrified to see the ghosts of Germany’s past reappear wearing keffiyehs instead of jackboots.

Easily the most pathetic part of the play stoppage was when Bruguera tried to defend her honor. I cringed watching it, and I cringed again while writing this. “First of all, you don’t know who I am,” Bruguera shouts at the protesters after a while. “You don’t know my history. You don’t know everything I’ve done for Palestinians and for all the people in the world.”

The clashing of tectonic-plate-sized egos, white people yelling at Cubans that they’re white—it might as well as have been Park Slope instead of Berlin.

Of course, Bruguera signed an open letter calling Israel’s counteroffensive in Gaza a “genocide.” But she was out of her league here, among professional anti-Semites. The protesters went on a stark-raving-mad rant about the lesser humanity of “Zionists” (meaning people with Jewish-sounding names) and the legitimacy of violence toward them while this poor woman was reduced to asking them if they had a gun and were going to shoot her. For that, Bruguera was deemed a racist.

The icing on the cake is that before the performance opened, Bruguera gave an interview to the The Art Newspaper’s podcast, “The Week in Art.” In it, the host and Bruguera went on at length about how this is such an appropriate time to read Hannah Arendt because of how Germany censors anyone who criticizes Israel. Bruguera went so far as to say that Chinese dissident Ai Weiwei’s ridiculous comment that censorship in the West is the same as in Mao’s China didn’t go far enough. “I think it’s worse” than in Mao’s China, Bruguera asserts, because “the censorship in China was [at least] condemned by the world.”

Doctors Without Borders condemns the 'Bloodbath'

It is unbearable to witness such a massive number of unarmed people being shot in such a short time.

the Israeli army must stop its disproportionate use of violence against Palestinian protesters 

Amnesty International also criticized what it described as a 

"shameless violation of international laws, in some instances committing what appear to be willful killings constituting war crimes."

UN Assembly blames Israel for Gaza violence, but not Hamas

The U.N. General Assembly approved a Palestinian-backed resolution Wednesday blaming Israel for violence in Gaza after narrowly rejecting a U.S. demand to add a condemnation of attacks on Israel by Gaza’s Hamas rulers.

Was a voted really necessary? For posterity?

the assembly voted on the original Palestinian-backed resolution, approving it 120-8 with 45 abstentions.

The 8 countries who voted against: Australia, Israel, Marshall Islands, Micronesia, Nauru, Solomon Islands, Togo and United States.

The Guardian view on Gaza shootings: stop killing unarmed civilians

It is inexcusable for soldiers of a military, especially those under democratic civilian control, to shoot and kill protesters, almost all of whom were unarmed, and who pose no credible threat. Yet at the boundary between Gaza and Israel today Israeli soldiers seem to have done just that. It should make Israelis quail that demonstrators were sprayed with live ammunition with apparent impunity.

“Channelling a reckless Donald Trump, Israeli ministers appear to have adopted a dangerous mindset: to destroy the national aspirations of the Palestinians by military force”

Today Mr Trump’s ambassador, who gave money to Jewish far-right groups in Israel, opened his nation’s new embassy in Jerusalem. This is a reckless and provocative step that will harm the prospects for peace. Like the issue of refugees, settlements and borders, the status of Jerusalem is unfinished business. No state is internationally recognised as having sovereignty over Jerusalem. Its status was meant to be determined through negotiations.

The conflict in the Holy Land is not a zero-sum game, where there is just one winner. The opposite is more likely to be true. Either both will fail – and continue with one civilian population humiliating and terrorising the other. Or they find a way to live side by side in two states, one that affords each people their own independence and security.

BERLIN - The Vienna police are pursuing criminal charges against three pro-Israel activists for waving an Israeli flag at a protest against the designation of Jerusalem as Israel's capital.

The police are seeking a 100 euro fine or two days in jail for the waving of the flag at the December 8 rally near the US embassy  in the capital.

The criminal notice, dated January 3, states that the activists "showed an Israeli flag at a rally in an extremely provocative way and manner that was visible for participants at the rally and thereby produced considerable offense and provocation among the Palestinian protestors."
