Summary:
Following a deadly attack at Sydney’s Bondi Beach Hanukkah celebration, British and German authorities have intensified measures against antisemitic incitement. London and Manchester police announced arrests for public chanting of the slogan “globalize the intifada,” linking it to calls for violence against Jews and Israelis. Germany’s Berlin District Court ruled that the phrase “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” constitutes a criminal offense due to its association with Hamas. These actions follow a series of violent attacks on Jewish communities and have been met with both support from Jewish organizations and criticism from free speech advocates.

Scripture: Psalm 83:2-4
"For, behold, Thine enemies make an uproar; And those who hate Thee have exalted themselves. They make shrewd plans against Thy people, And conspire together against Thy treasured ones. They have said, 'Come, and let us wipe them out as a nation, That the name of Israel be remembered no more.'"
Commentary:
Authorities in Europe are now forced to act as antisemitic slogans openly call for violence and stir fear among local Jewish communities. Regular families are reminded that intense hostility can still rise quickly, even within societies that value freedom of speech. The coordinated nature of these outbursts echoes biblical patterns where hostility against God’s people surfaces across different nations. This is not just a legal or security issue—it’s a sign of spiritual opposition that Scripture warns will intensify before resolution ultimately comes through God’s purposes.
Prophetic Trend:
Growing open hostility toward Jews is driving state intervention and highlights the rising prophetic tension over Israel and her descendants worldwide.

On Wednesday, London and Manchester police warned that anyone publicly chanting to “globalize the intifada” — a popular slogan among anti-Israel activists that has been widely condemned as a call for violence against Jews and Israelis — will be arrested. Local law enforcement said the crackdown comes as the “context has changed” in the wake of Sunday’s massacre in Australia, where gunmen murdered 15 people and wounded at least 40 others who gathered at Bondi Beach to celebrate the first night of the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah. The British government’s latest effort to confront rising antisemitism comes after a series of deadly attacks earlier this year, including the Yom Kippur terrorist assault in Manchester, which left two Jewish men dead; the firebombing of a march for Israeli hostages in Boulder,...
