The Los Angeles Times is running a full webpage advertisement promoting tourism to Israel. The ad is backed by the Israeli Ministry of Tourism. The ad also includes a map of Israel that erases Palestine.
LA Times page promoting tourism to Israel
"Israel:

You'll Find It Here

Israel is a country shaped by ancient traditions and diverse cultures, where every region offers a distinctly different atmosphere. You can spend the morning walking ancient pilgrimage sites, the afternoon floating in serene waters or relaxing on the coast, and the evening eating your way through vibrant market stalls before heading out for a night that ends when the sun rises.



From sacred sites to desert adventures, these guides offer different ways to explore the country. There’s no single right way to experience it, so follow what interests you, mix and match along the way, and leave some room to wander."

Also includes a disclaimer from LATimes:

The newsrooms or editorial departments of the Los Angeles Times are not involved. For those with questions, please email paidpost@latimes.com."
LATimes ad for Israel continued. Includes map of Israel that erases Palestine.

The National Post is using language that seems wildly irresponsible and dangerous here Citing ancient “Jewish law,” it labels Avi Lewis as a “rodef” The ultranationalist extremist who assassinated Yitzhak Rabin rationalized his killing on the same basis: www.theguardian.com/world/2020/o...
None of this applies, however, when a Jewish person presents a clear and present danger to the Jewish community. When that happens, Jewish thought is much more forceful: you must prevent the perpetrator from
causing harm.

Jewish law developed two character sketches to describe such scenarios. The first is known as a "mosar" — a Jewish person who informs to oppressive
authorities, potentially leading to the imprisonment, torture or death of community members. The second, called a "rodef," refers to a Jew who is actively pursuing another with the intent to harm or kill them. In both scenarios, the law is clear that a Jew is duty-bound to step in. Protecting the community and its members is the most important thing.It was around then that Yigal Amir, an earnest law student, made up his mind to kill the prime minister. Later he would insist he was not swayed by extremist rabbis; he had reached his own decision that Rabin - through his willingness to cede territory and to allow the creation of a Palestinian Authority, with its own armed police force - was a rodef and therefore a legitimate target. He got a weapon easily enough. With his brother, Amir was working on the creation of an anti-Palestinian militia. Nor was access difficult; on at least three occasions before the rally, Amir attended public events where Rabin was present. He was waiting for the right moment: he didn't want to shoot and miss.

@NYCMayor
The Talmud teaches that anyone who sustains one soul, has sustained an entire world. For generations, Jewish New Yorkers have sustained our city. Today, we are launching the first-ever municipal Strategy to Combat Antisemitism.

Together, we will ensure Jewish New Yorkers are safe and celebrated. We will invest in their protection, their history, and their future.

Our safety and our thriving are tied together.

@ADL_NYNJ
@NYCMayor Mamdani's antisemitism strategy finally landed
and only confirms what we already knew: this mayor does
not treat the hate facing Jewish New Yorkers as an
emergency and refuses to acknowledge the different shapes
it takes. Since he took office 271 days ago, ADL has recorded
hundreds of antisemitic incidents in NYC, nearly 40% of
which were related to Israel.
After throwing out the IHRA definition on his first day in
office, nine months later, his signature strategy still refuses
to replace it with any working definition of antisemitism. He
has looked the other way as flags glorifying terror groups
have been flown outside synagogues, a deliberate act meant
to intimidate families walking in to pray, and as crowds
gathered outside houses of worship voicing support for the
same groups. At the same time, he continues prioritizing his
anti-Israel agenda over the basic promises he made to
Jewish New Yorkers.
Our expectations have not changed: zero tolerance for
antisemitism and extremism in city government, real
protection for Jewish institutions, a clear and formal
definition of antisemitism that the city actually uses, and city
contracts, pensions and procurement kept free of ideological
boycotts. ADL will keep tracking and fighting antisemitism in
New York City and across the country, whether or not this
mayor is willing to do the same.

If you’re a random person and you have to deal with death threats and harassment from internet stalkers, it’s my understanding that the FBI basically ignores you in most circumstances. But the Millers are so powerful they can demote the head of the FBI’s DC field office for investigating too slow.
The orders from the bureau's DC chief Darren Cox stemmed from frustration shared by the Miller family that the field office was moving slowly in probing allegedly harassing phone messages left with prominent conservative podcaster, Katie Miller, added the people, who spoke anonymously to avoid retaliation.
Several of the individuals said Director Kash Patel was also displeased with the office's progress on the case.
