400-Pound Stone Falls From Western Wall
A large stone fell from the Western Wall on July 23 — and was

The 400-pound stone fell to an egalitarian prayer plaza hours

Abdallah was charged July 24 in Copenhagen District Court.

Cartoonist Avi Katz got fired for a parody of a selfie of Israeli

The cartoon appeared in The Jerusalem Report, a magazine
distributed by The Jerusalem Post. The Post told Haaretz that it
would no longer work with Katz, a freelancer.

The photo had been taken after Israel’s government passed
the nation-state law. That law says the right to exercise national
self-determination in Israel is unique to its Jews. l
