When Secretary of State Mike Pompeo announced this week that the United States no longer considers Israeli settlements in the West Bank to be in violation of international law, most Israelis were clearly pleased. But a good portion of American Jews weren’t. This tells us more about American Jewish priorities and indifference to what Israelis think than it does about what’s good for the Jewish state or arguments about international law.

Deputy Health Minister Yakov Litzman (UTJ) sharply criticized the public Chillul Shabbos in various cities in Israel.
“This trend of Chillul Shabbos in different cities is a gross act of defiance used by unashamed politicians who do not hesitate to harm the State’s Jewish character,” he said.
“It’s clear that we will not allow this serious trend to expand, because this is a systematic change to everything that has been preserved in the Jewish character throughout the years.”

Tesla has received 200,000 preorders for its all-electric Cybertruck, chief executive Elon Musk said Sunday, three days after the futuristic vehicle’s grand reveal went viral when its supposedly unbreakable windows shattered onstage.
With an angular design, a stainless steel “exoskeleton” and an overall look that some fans have called “post apocalyptic,” the Cybertruck stands out from the typical pickup truck. It’s Tesla’s effort to break into a market dominated by Ford, showcased on the heels of Ford’s unveiling of a fully electric Mustang.
Demand for the Cybertruck comes despite “no advertising & no paid endorsement,” Musk tweeted Saturday. In an update Sunday, he said preorders had reached 200,000.

Hezbollah accused the United States on Friday of meddling in the formation of a new Lebanese government amid one of the country’s worst economic crises.
“The first obstruction in the formation of the government is America because it wants a government that resembles it, and we want a government that resembles the Lebanese people,” Hezbollah deputy leader Sheikh Naim Qassem told Reuters.
“Let them leave us alone so we can reach an understanding among ourselves. The more they intervene the more they delay the solution.”
Qassem also said, according to the report, that “the corrupt must stand trial in Lebanon regardless of who they are … we support all measures that limit corruption and that recover looted wealth.”

Iranian Vice President Eshaq Jahangiri warned regional countries on Saturday that if it could be proved that they had stoked recent protests in the country, then consequences would ensue.
“Some countries of the region must know that if clues are found that they have been involved in provoking riots inside Iran, then their goose is cooked … because Iran is not a country to be joked with in this way or to tolerate such behaviors,” said Jahangiri, according to Iran’s Fars News Agency.
Countries in the region must “behave with utmost respect towards Iran,” said Jahangiri, and “will receive a crushing blow if it is found that foreigners have intervened in the domestic affairs of Iran and have inflicted costs and damages on the Iranian nation.”

Rep. Devin Nunes is threatening to take CNN and The Daily Beast to court after the outlets published a story saying a former Rudy Giuliani associate was willing to tell Congress that Nunes met with an ousted Ukrainian prosecutor.
The ranking member of the House Intelligence Committee told Maria Bartiromo on Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures” that he plans to take both news organizations to federal court “right after Thanksgiving” and that he hopes they will cooperate.

The announcement earlier this week by U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo that America no longer considers Israeli settlements to be in violation of international law did not happen in a vacuum.
Over the last several years, many pro-Israel organizations and political leaders on the grassroots level have sought to change the policy that considered Israel illegally occupying Judea and Samaria, also known as the West Bank. One of those politicians is Republican State Representative Alan Clemmons of South Carolina.
Clemmons, who has worked closely with pro-Israel groups such as Israeli-American Coalition for Action, has spearheaded landmark pro-Israel legislation on a state level that has been adopted by state houses across the country.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel will visit the site of the Auschwitz concentration camp next month for the first time in her 14 years in office, the German newspaper Sueddeutsche Zeitung reported on Thursday.
Merkel has accepted an invitation to attend the 10th anniversary of the Auschwitz-Birkenau Foundation on Dec. 6. Her office confirmed that a visit is planned but declined to specify the date, most likely because her appointments are generally announced only a week in advance.
Merkel has already visited other Nazi camps, including Dachau and Buchenwald, as well as the Yad Vashem Holocaust memorial and museum in Jerusalem.
