Yisroel and Chana Sternberg are suing Spirit Airlines alleging that a flight attendant racially discriminated against them spouted antisemitic hate towards them on a flight to Fort Lauderdale from Newark Liberty International Airport in January.
When the  couple was told they could not board with the infant car seat they had brought, even though the couple had bought an extra seat on the plane to accommodate the child,  Yisroel, who was seated separately from his wife, got up to assess the situation.

US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Wednesday confirmed the full implementation of the law mandating the relocation of the US Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.
“On May 14, 2018, the US Embassy in Jerusalem officially opened for business,” Pompeo said in a statement. “Now, as we near the first anniversary of that momentous event, I am pleased to report that I have provided my determination to Congress that the relevant elements of the Jerusalem Embassy Act of 1995 have been addressed. Accordingly, no further Presidential waiver of the funding restriction under the Act is necessary.”

As Israel mourns its fallen soldiers and victims of terrorism this week, top Palestinian Authority officials have explained that its government is “obligated” to pay salaries to 6,000 imprisoned Palestinian terrorists—and to the families of suicide-bombers and other so-called “martyrs”—because they were “soldiers” of the P.A. who had been “sent” by the P.A., and who acted out of “national interest and not for personal reasons.”
Most significantly, they “received orders” from the Palestinian Authority.
P.A. leader Mahmoud Abbas’s spokesman Nabil Abu Rudeina revealed: “It is impossible to send a soldier to war and then not take care of his family.”

President Trump imposed a fresh set of sanctions on the Tehran regime on Wednesday, targeting Iran’s iron, steel, aluminum and cooper sectors.
The move came on the one-year anniversary of Trump’s announcement of the US withdrawal from the 2015 international nuclear agreement with Iran — known as the JCPOA.
“Today’s action targets Iran’s revenue from the export of industrial metals — 10 percent of its export economy — and puts other nations on notice that allowing Iranian steel and other metals into your ports will no longer be tolerated,” Trump said on Wednesday.

Palestinian Islamic Jihad was “about to launch rockets at Tel Aviv when the ceasefire [with Israel] stopped it from happening,” the terrorist group’s leader, Ziad Nakhala, told the Beirut-based Al Mayadeen TV station on Tuesday.
Nakhala, who was in Egypt when the latest round of violence between Israel and Gaza-based terrorist groups erupted last Friday, outlined in the interview how events unfolded and also issued threats against Israel.

A square in the city of Petach Tikvah will be named after President Donald Trump, the city’s mayor announced.
Rami Greenberg said Monday that he decided to name the square adjacent to City Hall for the U.S. president because of “his unqualified support for the State of Israel,” the Israeli daily newspaper Maariv reported.
The square will be dedicated officially on July 4, Greenberg said. The mayor said he will invite the U.S. ambassador to Israel, David Friedman, Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, government ministers and public figures.

“The battle is not over,” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said of the conflict with the Gaza Strip-ruling Hamas on Wednesday.
Netanyahu was speaking at an official state ceremony for Israel’s annual Memorial Day for Fallen Soldiers and Victims of Terrorism. The speech came after a weekend of fierce fighting between Israel and the Hamas and Islamic Jihad terror groups in Gaza.
Hundreds of rockets were fired at Israel’s southern communities over a two-day span, killing four civilians. A ceasefire was announced on Monday.
“We are carefully weighing our next steps to ensure Israel’s security,” Netanyahu pledged, according to Hebrew news site Walla.

Rabbi Moshe Asman, rabbi of the central Brodsky synagogue in Kiev, also attended.
