Baltimore County, MD – August 7, 2025 – A Jewish-owned, Israel-supporting business was targeted in what is being described as a hate crime early this morning, after vandals defaced the property with red paint.
The red paint was splattered across the walkway, the door, and flags displayed on-site. Both the Israeli and American flags were visibly desecrated — the Israeli flag defaced entirely, and the American flag smeared in red. Community members say the act was clearly targeted and not random vandalism.“This was antisemitism. This was hate — loud and clear,” a friend of the business owner stated. “If this happened to any other group, it would already be national news. But when it happens to the Jewish community, we’re told to stay quiet.&rd...
Activist group StopAntisemitism is demanding Sephora stop carrying products from Huda Beauty after its founder posted a TikTok rant in which she blamed Israel for causing every World War, 9/11 and even the Oct. 7 Hamas terrorist attack.
"All of the conspiracy theories coming out and a lot of evidence behind them — that Israel has been behind World War I, World War II, September 11, October 7 — they allowed all of this stuff to happen. Is this crazy? Like, I had a feeling — I was like, ‘Are they behind every World War?’ Yes. Behind September 11? Absolutely," Huda Beauty founder Huda Kattan said in the post to her 1.7 million followers, which has since been deleted by TikTok.
Both World War I (ended in 1918) and World War II (ended in 1945) occ...

See, I have imparted to you, laws and rules, as י-ה-ו-ה אלוקי — G-d my Lord, has commanded me, for you to abide by in the land that you are about to enter and occupy.
Observe them faithfully, for that will be proof of your wisdom and discernment to other peoples, who on hearing of all these laws will say, “Surely, that great nation is a wise and discerning people.”
Is the reason we should be compelled to observe the commandments because others will admire our wisdom and character?
For what great nation is there that has a god so close at hand as is י-ה-ו-ה אלוקינו – G-d our Lord, whenever we call?
Is this verse implying that we get all our prayers answered whenever we call out to Him? Is that true?
Or what great nation ha...

Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Putin had provided Witkoff “concrete examples” of co...

Baltimore, MD - Aug. 6, 2025 - Maryland’s energy outlook is growing increasingly precarious as the Trump administration delivers a fresh blow to the state’s offshore wind ambitions — even as demand for electricity is projected to soar with the rise of artificial intelligence and data centers.
