TOP STORY: Ayman Mohamad Ghazali, a naturalized citizen from Lebanon, launched a “targeted act of violence” Thursday by ramming his truck into a West Bloomfield, Mich., synagogue. Armed with a rifle, the 41-year-old ignited a fire inside the building before being neutralized by heroic security. While 140 children were miraculously unharmed, the community remains shaken by this blatant terror.

DOMESTIC TERROR: Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney faces mounting pressure to combat a violent surge in antisemitism after three Toronto-area synagogues were struck by gunfire in a single week.

LET’S GO, BRANDON: The Anti-Defamation League is demanding Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson launch a dedicated task force as antisemitic hate crimes reach a “crisis point.” Following the murder of two Israeli embassy staffers and a 74% spike in local incidents, the ADL accuses city leadership of “fanning the flames” through extremist appointments and failing to protect Jewish residents. Action is non-negotiable.
STREETS OF RAGE: San Jose police are investigating a brutal assault at the popular Santana Row shopping district as a potential antisemitic hate crime. Caught on camera, the violent altercation involved multiple suspects pummeling a man while allegedly hurling religious slurs. As local tensions simmer, authorities are working to identify the attackers and determine if the victim was targeted for his faith.

WINDOW DRESSING: The ADL’s 2026 report card shows university antisemitism grades doubling, fueled by stricter policies and GOP pressure. Yet, the “improved” marks mask a darker reality: Jewish students report that campus hostility remains rampant. Paper progress is failing to stop the real-world surge of anti-Jewish hate.
