L'AIPAC ou American Israel Public Affairs Committee est un lobby créé en 1963 aux États-Unis visant à soutenir politiquement Israël

Brad Lander, a leftist Jewish ally of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, won his primary race for New York’s 10th Congressional District on Tuesday, ousting the centrist incumbent Dan Goldman.

Lander accused Israel of genocide and apartheid and attacked pro-Israel lobbying, while acknowledging that the attack line made him “queasy” because it played into antisemitic tropes.
 
Goldman has been harshly critical of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government and the war in Gaza, but is more in line with the Democratic Party center and the mainstream Jewish community.

In his victory speech, Lander again accused Israel of genocide and said the US was “paying for Netanyahu’s wars with our tax dollars.”
 
“I will be one of the Jewish members of Congress most willing to stand up for Palestinian human rights, and I will stand firmly against bigotry aimed at Jews,” he said.

‘The beginning of the beginning’: Israel, Lebanon sign deal for IDF to start partially withdrawing from Lebanon
 

 
Representatives from Israel, Lebanon and the United States hold a signing ceremony at the State Department for what they are calling a trilateral agreement between their countries that will see the IDF begin to withdraw from small parts of southern Lebanon.
 
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio appears to acknowledge the limited scope of the agreement in his opening remarks, calling it, “The beginning of the beginning… This first step sometimes is the hardest one, but it’s an important one, and the one we’ve taken together.”

Leiter recalls how he began this round of talks on Tuesday by warning of an impending “train wreck,” after the US decided to include a ceasefire in Lebanon as part of the memorandum of understanding it reached last week with Iran.
 
The decision appeared to undercut Washington’s own efforts to prevent Iran from maintaining an influence over developments in Lebanon. The US had established the direct talks between Israel and Lebanon in April, specifically in order to ensure that Iran would not be involved in future discussions about Israel’s continued presence in Lebanon.
 
But either because of Iran’s significant leverage in the Strait of Hormuz or because Washington believed that Iran was needed to rein in Hezbollah, the US agreed to Tehran’s demands that the memorandum of understanding inked last week include a ceasefire in Lebanon and then agreed to allow Iran to be part of the deconfliction mechanism that was established to ensure that ceasefire — both moves infuriating Jerusalem and Beirut.
 
“Iran and its proxies wanted a train wreck,” Leiter says at the signing ceremony before arguing that such a result was prevented thanks to Rubio’s leadership.
 
Rubio has not been a part of the talks with Iran, which have been led by US Vice President JD Vance.

Hezbollah MP warns Lebanese authorities against enforcing US-mediated deal with Israel
 

 
Hezbollah lawmaker Hassan Fadlallah says Lebanese authorities would not be able to enforce a framework agreement signed with Israel in Washington on Friday unless, with US support, “they go to civil war,” Al Mayadeen reports, after talks aimed at ending fighting between Israel and his Iran-backed terror group.
 
Fadlallah says Hezbollah will confront any measure taken by Lebanese authorities and will hold on to its weapons even more, adding that the group’s opposition is “serious” and will not allow authorities to implement their commitments on the ground.

A Collapsing Society: Israel Suffers a National Mental Crisis Due to the War

Start with the figures from the Defense Ministry. Before the war, the rehabilitation branch dealt with 62,000 injured, of whom 11,000 were dealing with mental health issues.As of last month, the numbers had shot up to 82,000 and 31,000 respectively.

In the past year, the rehabilitation branch has revised its forecast and now expects to reach the 100,000 figure by 2028, with the share of those dealing with mental health issues rising to half the total. More recently, it has said it expected to reach the six-digit figure by next year. Yet, even those numbers tell only part of the story. "Many don't want to be recognized by the ministry," says Wiersch.
Prof. Yair Bar-Haim, head of The National Center for Traumatic Stress and Resilience at Tel Aviv University, knows people like that. "In our clinic, we've taken care of hundreds of reservists with obvious symptoms, who without a doubt are eligible for recognition by the rehabilitation department, but don't want to deal with all the bureaucratic complications."

On the eve of October 7, the number of citizens injured in hostile acts and recognized by the National Insurance Institute as disabled due to mental health issues was at 6,412. This week, the number of those recognized by the Institute as having mental injuries reached more than 69,000, with about 35,000 of them having already undergone committee review and been recognized as disabled. Thus, in less than three years, the number has jumped by more than tenfold.

About a month before the war, he found that the rate of PTSD symptoms in the population was about 16 percent; a month after October 7, it jumped to about 30 percent; and two years and three months later, it was about 19.7 percent. "This is significantly higher than the global rate," Levi-Belz says. The World Health Organization, for example, found in 2021 that the global rate of people who experienced post-trauma symptoms was about 3.9 percent.

A report by the Women's International Zionist Organization found a 65 percent increase of domestic violence in Israel's general population in the first six months of the war, compared to the corresponding period in the year before it – 4,566 calls to its shelters compared to 2,760. A 2024 study found an eight times higher chance of physical or sexual violence at home when both partners are serving in the reserves.

A study by Hebrew University's School of Medicine found that before October 7, 5 percent of the population in Israel suffered from clinical insomnia (1 percent severe, and 4 percent moderate). By the end of 2025, the rate reached 28 percent: 7 percent severe and 21 percent moderate.

Many Israelis are seeking alternative methods of coping, with consequences. A report published by the Israel Center for Addictions and Mental Health in June 2025 found that, during the war, one in four Israelis has been using alcohol, cannabis, prescription sedatives or painkillers at an increased risk level. Before the war, the rate was one in seven. Among those reporting significant PTSD symptoms, the rate jumps to 54.2 percent.
