The Fatah movement, which rules the West Bank-based Palestinian Authority, has called for violence in response to next week’s US-sponsored economic workshop in Bahrain.
The conference is intended to be the first stage in the Trump administration’s long-gestating Israeli-Palestinian peace plan. Representatives of several Arab states are set to take part, along with an Israeli business delegation. The Palestinian Authority is refusing to attend.
Fatah’s call for violence appeared in an Arabic-language Facebook post, translated by Palestinian Media Watch (PMW).

A 79-year-old woman was seriously injured on Tuesday when she was hit in the head by a metal object thrown at her as she exited a shul in Paris.
The woman was taken to a hospital, where she was in stable, non-life threatening condition on Wednesday.
As of press time, it was not known who hurled the object — a steel pétanque ball — and a motive had not been ascertained.
The incident took place in the French capital’s 11th arrondissement, the site of two brutal antisemitic murders of Jewish women, Sarah Halimi and Mireille Knoll, since 2017.
The French Jewish communal organization CRIF strongly condemned the attack, and said it would be monitoring the investigation with “seriousness and concern.”

The International Atomic Energy Agency signed an agreement recognizing “Palestine” as a country, as it joined the nuclear watchdog on Tuesday as an observer.

“The agreement, which was signed by the agency’s director general Yukiya Amano and the Palestinian Ambassador in Vienna Salah Abdul Shafi, gives the IAEA inspectors the ability to check the safety of radioactive materials and fissile nuclear materials, such as uranium,” reported The Jerusalem Post.
Although the Palestinian Authority has no nuclear reactors, “it does have physics departments in hospitals and universities, which have medical equipment containing components of nuclear materials,” according to the Post.

CNN cut away from its coverage of President Trump’s 2020 reelection campaign kickoff Tuesday night shortly after he spurred the crowd to chant “CNN sucks.”

“All right. We’ve been watching the president kick off his reelection bid. He’s been on stage for about six minutes. Within two minutes he did talk about the economy, but within four minutes it was attacks on the media,” CNN’s John Berman said.

Everyday, at the end of Shemone Esrei, we part from Hashem with the request, “Yehi ratzon milfonecha, Hashem Elokeinu, she’yibonei Beis HaMikdash bimheira biyomeinu – May it be Your will HaShem, that You rebuild the Temple speedily in our days.”  The desire to have the Beis HaMikdash stems from the fact that we want once again for HaShem to reside in our midst for when we had the Temple, the posuk testifies, “V’asu li Mikdash v’shochanti b’socham – Make for Me a sanctuary that I may dwell amongst you.”

The top members of the Senate Appropriations Committee have struck a deal on President Trump’s request for more funding tied to the U.S.-Mexico border after weeks of stalemate, two aides confirmed to The Hill.
The deal — worked out between Senate Appropriations Committee Chairman Richard Shelby (R-Ala.) and Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.), the top Democrat on the panel — would provide Trump more than $4.5 billion for the border funding package.
The agreement will be marked up in the Senate Appropriations Committee on Wednesday and is expected to get a vote on the Senate floor before lawmakers leave for the Fourth of July recess next week.
