in this case, jewish identity. i'm wondering, karen, if you can talk about that aspect of the work in general. >> sure. i think a lot of people really relate to the aspect of social action, social justice. that, for them, is their expression of judaism. the bay area is a fun place. we have so many different and unique organizations. so much niches people can go into to express their jewish values. the way they come at it. this kind of work, mobilizing the community, working on issues you care about deeply, is something that really will bring people in. perhaps in other parts of the jewish community they don't necessarily find a home but they can find a home there. >> would you say that's true from the jewish relations counsel perspective, whether a jew of color, a secular jew, a jew by choice that any age, any ability? is that across the board from your perspective? >> yeah, absolutely. these issues bring us all together. >> for sure. all the research shows that people are most proud of this commitment to justice o

on august 27 , the jewish population was gathered in the center of the city. here again, the pretext is the clarification of the census data. there is evidence that it was proposed to raise material funds in order to build for other unexplained purposes , and the amounts were even named, but supposedly the money was not collected in full. and almost this one, including served by massacre the next day on august 28, the jews were gathered again and taken to the ivanovshchina tract for earthworks. these works. lasted 2 days gathered people who are more or less capable of physically strong men according to their health. so they collected and led there with shovels to dug. there, as it were, according to the version of the german uh trenches, in fact, they were digging a city grave for themselves. and on saturday, august 30 , the forty-first year, the entire jewish population of logoisk, including the children of the old men, was supposed to appear in the city law. the jews of logoisk were it is said that they will be resettled in the town of gaina. there is a jewi

the safety and future of our jewish community depends on it. thank you. >> thank you so much and forgive me, michael bagraim. >> the anti-semites are a virus. viruses mutate. i was not surprised to see noncommittal from each one of you. i sensed that judaism is cytosine. you didn't know that. they've seen it, the anti-cement has seen that. -- anti-semite has seen that. it's easy to bypass the systems completely. he will continue bypassing your systems until you look at it and recognize the mutation. all i'm asking is for you to go back and have a look at what he anti-semite is actually doing. to see that the virus is mutated and escaped your barriers that you put forward. hate speech is there. it never gets stopped. it's easy to say i hate israel and explain how they hate zionists. the world sees that as an attack on just jews. as soon as we come to that we won't be able to stop it. >> want to thank my fellow task force members. i want to thank the representatives of the platforms. it's not a simple task to engage in this conversation. i do bel

she leads that work so we better understand issues that are negatively impacting the jewish community. we can concentrate on those in realtime. again, thank you for having us at this important event. i do look forward to your questions. >> thank you, so much, mister pots. miss austin, representing twitter, i recognize you for five minutes. >> thank you, very, much for the invitation to appear today to discuss combatting online antisemitism. on behalf of twitter, i would like to acknowledge the hard workable committee members and witnesses on this issue. on a personal level, i would also like to acknowledge ceta the central for jewish living -- and the canadian jewish acting committee for their collaboration as well as a frank and open dialogue on this issue. there are a lot of canadians in this room during a lot of great work on this issue, which i would also like to compliment and call out. twitter's purpose is to serve the public conversation. when individuals create twitter account to begin tweeting, their tweets are immediately viable and searchable by anyone around the world. it

this is, uh, one of the significant dates of the jewish calendar. i am convinced that the people who protest after that , for one reason or another, are politically motivated. they also celebrate a holiday, so i, well, i'm almost here monday evening tuesday and wednesday there will be no protests. alexander moiseevich thank you very much for the interview for such detailed answers to questions, but in turn we congratulate you on the upcoming holiday. and let me remind you that we spoke live from the presidents of the federation of jewish communities of russia alexander boroda. the vtb team will offer a solution, my joy. if only the pension would also be happy, but these are difficulties. fill out an application to profitably transfer your pension to a reliable bank. transfer your pension to a vtb card and get 2,000 rubles. give cash at atms of any banks without commission, and also vtb without service fees. switch to vtb and that's it, you get two components that reinforce each other, acting against the heat against the heat of the annual. it will b

the results are jewish students silence as a scientist and jewish people attacked. recent research has found that between 73.6 and 84% of online antisemitism takes the form of anti israel hatred. accusations that israel is a bloodthirsty, genocidal state that must be destroyed or not just wrong and misguided, they are the modern-day blood libel. we need to fight them accordingly. the numbers are not in our favors. there are less than 15 million jews in the world. that number is dwarfed by the following a social media influencers demonizing israel for likes and for shares. social media platforms need to do the right thing. and ambassador lipstadt said, live up to their own standards. i call on them to reevaluate and update their hate speech definition to call denying the jewish people's right to self determination what it is. to call and portraying israel as some kind of a mythical evil, what it is. that is modern antisemitism. that is a campaign of education and advocacy so that social media influencers, and the platforms that host them, understand what it is that t

physical manifestation of anti-semitism i direct jewish and non-jewish individuals, institutions, and religions. another part we are playing in the organization of american states, to extend the role of those that adapt -- adopted the definition, six of them argentina, canada, uruguay, u.s., columbia, and guatemala side the adoption. some of other countries such as brazil are observers of the association. regarding the social we are examining today i believe our main task is to find legal alternatives to combat online hate. the debate about hate speech and his containment and regulation has been getting new changes with the media and the internet. it was in the traditional media, mike kelly has mentioned, -- as my colleague has mentioned with those that adopt the amendment, the focus, it has taken a new dimension in the dynamics of online communication. one way to be explored in sonic of -- sonic of the works. to be recognized as insiders and others by -- identify and have the monitor with mechanisms. another one, respecting the institute of each national legislation will be a combina

after that, he had to, and submit an application to the jewish community the jewish community consideredd the jewish line on the female line there. he the jewish community did not accept this moment very well mastered by those who just wanted to come to germany to settle down for their own criminal political goals. eh, i don’t know, there are some special services there. maybe it was like that, so people came and went later , uh, in general, well, the community refused them, but the german state is arranged in such a way that it is simply impossible to take it away after giving permission for a residence permit. therefore, these people stayed in germany in 2001. kapustin nikitin's family arrives in germany precisely along this path, but with one small exception, if in the early nineties these people came randomly and you could just come from the country, but in 2001 there was already a system of questionnaires. this means that it was necessary to first submit documents in german at the german embassy. and after that, you were given the opportunity to come, and he could come. only in this

and for me, as german chancellor, it is important to strengthen jewish life from germany. or this includes learning lessons from the past and consistent b countering was on any anti semitic rulings with expressions and crimes. i'm particularly interested in strengthening the ties between young people from israel and germany to intensify the ties between our countries and with to ensure more youth exchanges for the unique ties between german israel meal that germany is committed to its responsibility for israel's, for security. it is a reason of state that is what this german government stands for, and israel can count on us. in today's talk, we covered a number of important issues. one of them was the iran's nuclear program. we are both concerned with the fact that we ran is taking new steps via of escalation and has highly enriched uranium for which i wish we agree with those rather entirely that israel that iran leather cannot see. alicia could have nuclear weapons and this dangerous conflict must be diffused, which is why a diplomatic solution is at the top of our agend

it's not just going to address the needs of the jewish community. it's going to help set in motion the opportunity to strengthen yes. the jewish community, but democracy as a whole, something it's desperately needed right at this moment. so after the conversations you've had after the consultations with envoys from around the world, what do you want to see in big letters when that action plan comes about here in the us? well, we have to, there are, there are a few things that were clear takeaways today, from the experiences in germany at the you and across europe, a number one, this can be a political exercise. it has to be based on what's actually happening and has to seek the input of the community impacted that is that the jewish community. and number 2, we have to acknowledge that social media companies play a role here that when something is, is posted on social media by someone with a huge following i that's world wide that, that anti semitism doesn't stop at borders. and so we've got to focus on the social media piece and number 3, it has to

that is the, the jewish community. and number 2, we have to acknowledge that social media companies are play a role here that when something is, is posted and media by some of the huge following i. that's worldwide that, that anti semitism doesn't stop at borders. and so we've got to focus on the social media piece, and number 3, it has to be a plan for, for, for the long haul, it's got to be a plan that includes education and security and opportunities to, to bring communities together. that's how we're going to do this in a way that will be sustainable. ted toys, the ceo of the american jewish committee, thanks very much. but you and as it from me and the team that spend the day, as we saw the spot, the compensation continues online, you'll find us on twitter, either it dw news, or you could follow me at 11, e r s. thank you very much for watching the day. see it ah, with with transporting goods to europe. what's the latest on china's new silk road? rushes war against ukraine has disrupted traffic on important stretc

in europe, the jewish district cannot be compared with anyone in minsk.ccording to a special order of the occupying authorities, already in july 1941, from the order of the field commandant to create a ghetto in the city of minsk on july 19, 1941 . the first since the publication of this a jewish district is being created in minsk, where only jews will live, the second within five days , from the time the entire jewish population of the city of minsk is obliged to move to the area allocated to it for living, there was an order to move all jews on the territory of the minsk agent. it was one and a half square kilometers of living space , minsk somewhere was such wooden houses, well, private houses, everything means, which were mostly lived by jews, they were engaged in handicrafts. and when there settled 140,000 people, then in each room lived seven by 10 by 12 people. if you count, it turned out to be about one and a half square meters per person. according to the order of the field commandant , in fact , three camps of the border of the big gett were for

it was a local prayer house by the jewish community, then the jewish school decided everything, whatains of the second synagogue in the city. unfortunately, every year the building is more and more destroyed. and many tourists claim that inside you can find the remains of wall paintings. we failed to do this. during the period of german occupation, there was a jewish ghetto in the city in the fall of 1941. in the city, 320 people were shot, the rest were taken under escort to the vysoko-litovsk railway station, brought to three glinka, the tragedy of the vysokov jews, the natives of this city are very well reflected in the works of jozef khariton. according to archival data the execution took place 100 meters from the new synagogue, presumably at this place, and a monument was erected to the dead jews, and next to it was a part of the tombstone from the cemetery, from which nothing remained, by the way, there used to be several jewish burials high today in their place residential urban development. unfortunately, time takes its toll and now gravestones . sometimes it becomes the prey

and by the way, not just for the jewish people, but also for a very certain, a groups of the jewish israelis. because if you, that means that i mean right now, and if you ask the a, you know, if your parents, if you ask a former us, is our immigrants, they also tell you that they don't feel like they were fully it part it fully partners of the israeli democracy. and so i think this is the question right now. do we want to redefine democracy and i can't tell you what's, what's gonna happen? i do think were not as big as we want to be. and coming to this moment to this very critical moment. but i do think that there are many opportunities that we'll be able to take with us for the next and, and hopefully we'll be able to compete with very interest. but it's the question, could this be a tipping point, steve? i mean, well, that is one thing that he says for these railey public question. what's happening? what about the international community? and i'm sure getting my mind me question what he right. and that the far what the far right has done is to remove the mass that enables western complacen

and then that being a part of a lead or being from the lower classes, being jewish or not jewish, and only then come religion. yes, there is a division, according to religion, namely between the sexual and their religious. the way, why is this sanction sees the liberty you have seen that too much is in both of them in terms of religion. israelis by far the most religious country in the western world. so many things that people come from that which i can't believe that they see from not having a public transportation on southern thing to think that i cannot marry my years when you should girlfriend. it is right because she's in the jewish things, which i heard in any secular democracy. but this is not the front of the argument right now. as i say, the main thing is now we didn't mentioned the agents on it than yo as, as, as something which motivates many of the book. this does even though they won't say, but that the neo became the most hated. and the most beloved is really politician ever i think. and those who hate him are ready to anything to get rid of him. that's, that's in the fr

very broadly that jewish political figures were at risk.gain, the fbi acted very swiftly in collaboration with other technology provides to capture this individual and place them in custody, but we've got to be better than that because these ideologies are out there, and they're really unmitt fwated and we have to, you know, start containing them and suppressing that hate. >> they're out there and they're out there more than they were. i maean, congressman, the adl says in 2021 anti-semitic attacks were at an all time high in the united states. more than 2,700 attacks were reported that year. what is behind this jump? >> well, you're right about the number, and the survey that ajc just put out on anti-semitism shows that 90% of the american people as well as 90% of the jewish community, but 90% of the american people think that anti-semitism is a major concern. it's a risk. that's the reason that over 40% of american jews feel less secure in our country than was the case just one year ago, that's a ten percentage point increase. there's no

a left that is jewish arab in essence.t is more progressive and would be successful to talk to not only the old elite which is now on the street conditional partnerships that we had. now we have a new kind of partnership and a new kind of majority. if we are able to capitalize on that and redefine democracy, and by the way and not just for the jewish people but also for a very certain group of jewish israelis. if you ask former ussr immigrants, they tell you they don't feel like they were fully partners of the easter -- western democracy. do we want to redefine democracy? i cannot tell you what's going to happen. i think we were at -- we are not as big as he want to be and going coming to this moment, but i do think there are many opportunities that will -- we will be able to take with us. and hopefully, we will be able to compete. >> it's the question. could this be a tipping point, steve? what about the international community? what the far right has done is to remove the mask that enables rick -- complacency. will this

. >>> happening now, a plot to kill jewish officials in michigan revealed as the state attorney generalays she was among the targets. we'll discuss the growing danger from anti-semitic attacks and threats with the head of the anti-defamation league. >>> also this hour we're on verdict watch. now that the fate of alex murdaugh is in the hands of a jury, closing arguments wrapping up a little while ago as murdaugh stands trial on charges of murdering his wife and son. >>> and a first since russia invaded ukraine. the u.s. secretary of state eye to eye with the russian foreign minister. we'll get an update on their talks and the state of the war from key white house official john kirby. welcome to our viewers here in the united states and around the world. i'm wolf blitzer and you're in the situation room. >>> tonight the alleged anti-semitic plot uncovered in michigan is adding to fears for the safety of jewish americans and elected officials. cnn's pablo sandoval has all the details on the threats he's accused of making. >> reporter: tonight officials foil an alleged plot. a federal comp

it was allowed to leave the jewish area only along two streets, pansky and ostrovsky, it was guardedclock by ss policemen from among the lithuanian and belarusian nationalist formations. executions of civilians, prisoners of war in minsk began literally from the first days of the occupation in the arsenal indicative executions of the jews of minsk herta in 1941 residents of vitebskaya street in minsk shots woke up, after which screams were heard, crying children. he rushed to the house to warn the household, and there were seven souls left there. but it was already too late from the back of the house the policemen were pushing the wife, the aunt of her husband's sons, out into the street. there were none among them. this means that they managed to hide, it flashed into the mind of wulf managed to grab his young daughter by the hand and rushed to run. i hide behind houses. together with the child, they followed the columns of machine guns. the pharisee, making sure the men really have a pass pushed out ether columns. in the first pogrom , those who worked were freed. and my mother was

and again, peace is a very jewish value. so i hope it's not an easy time here now in israel, but i hope that bottom line, the peace people and the moderate people will go back to power and try to fix all the conflicts. yeah, you know, well i have the you, you set up this fun quite right now. now you said the close of $500000.00 now have been funded. have you or we'd have you received any threats for doing this for, for setting this up for you being welcome for doing such a thing. ah, look, $12000.00 israeli than 48 hours and thousands of support the messages. so i feel welcome, but yet there is also a few 100 threats and even life death threats. but i'm a very, let's say, i believe in what i do, and i want to buy to bring back a more moderate and tolerance, judith. and so when you're a believer and when you're a fire, i'm not afraid from the best read. they have both both sides of the comic about the crowd fund media project. well, you keep up the good luck. there's going to be peace in the region soon. yeah, i think member

should politicians that are jewish across the country be more alarmed today? >> i would love to tell you they weren't, but i can't. i wouldn't say that what we're looking at is a 10, 20, 30-fold increase in danger to them. it is, however, going to -- this case is going to appeal to some people buried in a cabin or in their mom's basement or wherever they are who have these ideologies swimming around in their head. and when they see somebody else do that or when they see somebody else begin to do it and get taken down, they say, you know, if he can do it, i can do it. so that's your fear. much like school shootings, they breed each other. >> so we talked about this tweet being the catalyst for the arrest. twitter announced a new zero tolerance policy for wishing harm speeches they call it. prohibits users from expressing hopes that others may suffer death, illness, or physically harmful consequences. also threats to homes, shelters, infrastructure. is this going far enough? on one side of crse you don't want this online. on the other side of it, this is how the

it was the prayer house of the local jewish community, and then decided the school of the jews.e all that remains of the second synagogue in the city. unfortunately every year the building is getting bigger. is destroyed. and many tourists claim that inside you can find the remains of wall paintings. we failed to do this. during the period of german occupation, there was a jewish ghetto in the city in the fall of 1941. in the city, 320 people were shot, the rest were taken under escort to the railway station vysoko-litovsk, brought to glinka at three, the tragedy of the vysokov jews, the birth of this city is very well reflected in the works of jozef khariton, if to believe the archival data , the execution took place 100 meters from the new synagogue , presumably at this place, and they installed a monument to the dead jews, and next to it is a part of a tombstone from a cemetery, from which nothing remains, by the way, there used to be several jewish burials in a high place; today , residential urban development is in their place. unfortunately time. his and now gravestones, s

here we need to divide this issue in two parts, the first is the right of people of jewish origin toain israeli citizenship, to come to israel, to stay in israel, no sanctions can deprive a person of the right to travel to israel , no accusations are an obstacle for a person to receive israeli citizenship. if a person has the right to receive israeli citizenship by by the law of return , that is, if a person has jewish roots, the second issue is the issue of sanctions on business on assets, and here israel takes a very transparent position, we do not have laws on sanctions never in history has israel imposed unilateral sanctions on this or that state or specific businessmen, but from the very beginning we said that we will not act to circumvent sanctions and we essentially comply with the restrictions imposed by the usa and european countries on countries or companies or individuals israel circumvention of sanctions did not work. does this also apply to the assets of these oligarchs , this is mykhailo fridman, this is herman khan, romana bramovych, absolutely all of israel did not wo

parties maksym shevchenko me at one party i talked about the fact that the jews had invented the jewish question in a private conversation, you don't need a tv, these people also speak from private conversations themselves. of course, i didn't want to sit next to such a person. and this person, who is known for his vinnist beliefs they wanted to sit with me on the same floor, just thanks to my origin. such people are next to people of the wrong origin . do they not sit next to them if they are not there? you always find a common language with a person who doesn't lie, the important thing is that he doesn't lie. i always offer the students the rules of the holocaust. if you want, i tell them what, let's you decide for yourself. a person came to the podium . a person came to the program. one person and another person. one person said that jews are abominations and hitler destroyed 6 million jews . i would rather destroy 10 because they are our enemies and another person tells you that there was no holocaust, that this is all fiction - it was invented by the jews themselves in order to get

we begin this hour with the death threats against jewish elected officials in michigan. this comes at a very, very dangerous moment following a dramatic rise in anti-semitic attacks across the country as well as threats to government leaders. let's bring in our senior justice correspondent evan perez. evan, what more first of all are you uncovering about this alleged plot in the state of michigan? >> reporter: yeah, wolf, this is part of an alarming and dangerous trend that we see across the country. in this case this man by the name of jack eugene carpenter is charged with making interstate threats against a number of jewish officials in michigan including dana nessel who is the attorney general in that state. according to the information from the fbi, the charges that were filed there in detroit, he is said to have owned a number of weapons. he made threats saying that he was ready to travel back from texas to carry out these attacks on jewish elected officials in the state of michigan. and a number of things jumped out to the fbi investigators as they were looking at
