Rep. Elise Stefanik gained fame in December 2023 for her grilling of the presidents of Ivy League universities in congressional hearings on the vicious antisemitism that broke out on university campuses following the October 7 massacre. The presidents’ outrageous responses, including refusing to unequivocally say that calling for the genocide of the Jewish people violates their institutions’ code of conduct, led to the resignation of Harvard President Claudine Gay and University of Pennsylvania President Liz Magill. On Wednesday, Stefanik questioned several university presidents, including Haverford College President Wendy Raymond, whose responses seemed scripted.

An airstrike in southern Gaza’s Khan Younis yesterday destroyed a primed Hamas rocket launching position, the military says.

A senior defense official said on Monday afternoon that the IDF will begin preparing for the expanded military operation in Gaza but will not launch it until after US President Donald Trump concludes his visit to the Middle East. Trump is scheduled to visit Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the US from May 13-16. The new operation has been named Operation Gideon’s Chariots. “Operation Gideon’s  Chariots, with the goal of defeating Hamas in Gaza and the release of all hostages, was unanimously approved by the security cabinet,” the official told the press.

India and Pakistan are scrambling resources both military and diplomatic to respond to a crisis triggered by a massacre in Indian-controlled Kashmir that has heightened fears of a conflict between the nuclear-armed rivals. India blames Pakistan for backing the gunmen behind the April 22 killing of 26 people, most of them Indian Hindu tourists, and has described it as a terror attack. Islamabad denies the charge. Both countries have expelled each other’s diplomats and nationals, as well as closed their borders and shuttered airspace. India has also suspended a critical water-sharing treaty with Pakistan. A Pakistani minister last week said his country had “credible intelligence” that an Indian strike was imminent. There has been no military action from India so far.

A historic agreement involving rare earth minerals was recently signed between Ukraine and the Trump administration, reinforcing broader defense efforts initiated under the Biden years, which included ramped-up deliveries of air defense systems to help Ukraine push back against Russian aggression.
As part of this evolving effort, a Patriot missile defense system originally located in Israel is now being refurbished to be sent to Ukraine. At the same time, talks are underway among NATO partners to coordinate additional Patriot system deliveries from Germany or Greece, according to four individuals who spoke with The New York Times.

POTUS: “We’re going to help the people of Gaza get some food. People are starving and we’re going to help them get some food… Hamas is making it impossible because they’re taking everything that’s brought in.”
