Times Of Israel: Jewish Federations CEO privately opposed letter against arrests of campus activists
A coalition of 10 prominent U.S. Jewish organizations criticized the Trump administration's handling of antisemitism, prompting a response from Eric Fingerhut, CEO of the Jewish Federations of North America (JFNA). He argued that the open letter did not represent the diverse views within the Jewish community and expressed disappointment over the lack of consultation.
The disagreement highlights ongoing tensions regarding the response to Trump’s deportation policies affecting foreign student activists. While some Jewish groups have condemned these actions, JFNA emphasizes the importance of acknowledging differing perspectives within the community. Fingerhut defended civil liberties and due process in relation to the deportations, asserting that targeted students are receiving legal representation.

Le Monde: Global warming is a security threat and armies must adapt, experts warn
Militaries worldwide are increasingly recognizing the strategic challenges posed by climate change, which can no longer be ignored. Experts warn that climate action is being overshadowed by defense spending, particularly in Europe and the U.S., where climate-related threats are not adequately addressed in security assessments.
Recent assessments highlight the operational risks of climate change, including extreme weather events that strain military resources and the need for renewable energy to reduce fossil fuel dependence. As militaries adapt to these evolving threats, the implications for national security are significant.
