Jewish Insider’s Melissa Weiss was at the scene shortly after the attack, which occurred shortly after 3 a.m. local time. One person was killed and 10 wounded in the attack. The Houthis in Yemen claimed responsibility for the attack, which did not activate any sirens and was not shot down; the IDF has attributed its failure to identify the drone as a threat to human error. Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari, the IDF spokesperson, said a preliminary investigation indicated that the drone was an Iranian UAV, upgraded to fly from Yemen to Israel.
- Secretary of State Tony Blinken kicks off a packed morning on the final day of the Aspen Security Forum. Blinken, who will be in conversation with NPR’s Mary Louise Kelly, is expected to touch on a number of issues, including the Biden administration’s handling of the Israel-Hamas war and Washington’s part in efforts to broker a cease-fire and hostage-release.
- Following Blinken’s session, Sens. Chris Coons (D-DE), Dan Sullivan (R-AK) and John Cornyn (R-TX) will participate in a panel on “The View from the Senate.” Following that, Anne Neuberger, the deputy assistant to the president and deputy national security advisor for cyber and emerging technology, will join a panel titled “Securing Trust in the Global Digital Economy: Cyber, Fraud, and Emerging Threat.” Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. CQ Brown and National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan will also sit for separate fireside chats on the confab’s last day.
| Former President Donald Trump’s 90-minute acceptance speech last night at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee — which ended just after midnight on the East Coast — began on an uplifting note as he called for unity days after surviving an attempted assassination at a rally in Pennsylvania, Jewish Insider’s Matthew Kassel reports from the final night of the GOP confab.
But in his first public remarks since the shooting, Trump soon went off message in a subdued and largely meandering address that showed the former president returning to more abrasive rhetoric and improvised riffs — including an extended encomium to Viktor Orbán, the Hungarian prime minister and strongman — that fell flat with the crowd.
He invoked a well-worn epithet to criticize Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), calling her “crazy Nancy Pelosi,” and attacked Sen. Jacky Rosen (D-NV) as “a lightweight” while plugging her GOP challenger, Sam Brown, who was present at the convention. And he laid into President Joe Biden, who is facing growing calls from his party to step away from the race, even as Trump’s team had reportedly vowed that he would not use his opponent’s name in his speech.
One high point came near the end of the address, which was the longest convention speech in history, as Trump called for the American hostages now held by Hamas in Gaza to be returned — a theme of the previous night. “To the entire world, I tell you this, we want our hostages back,” Trump said to applause — as well as what sounded like a shofar blowing from the floor of the convention. “And they better be back before I assume office, or you will be paying a very big price.”
Trump otherwise fell short of advancing substantive proposals for addressing the ongoing turmoil in the Middle East and Ukraine — aside from a promise to “end every single international crisis that the current administration has created.”
In an earlier speech on Thursday evening, Sen. Steve Daines (R-MT), the chairman of Senate Republicans’ campaign arm, also dinged the Biden administration for its handling of the Israel-Hamas war. “An America First majority is going to stand with Israel,” he pledged.
And Mike Pompeo, who served as secretary of state under Trump, accused Biden as well as Vice President Kamala Harris of “providing appeasement to” what he called “the pro-Hamas radicals on our streets.”
In a nod to the isolationist wing of the Republican Party, meanwhile, Tucker Carlson, the incendiary right-wing commentator who lobbied Trump to pick Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) as his running mate, used his speaking slot to inveigh against U.S. funding to Ukraine, which he said has come at the expense of countering the fentanyl crisis at home. “You don't see our commander-in-chief suggesting that we use our military to protect our country or the lives of its citizens,” he said to cheers from the crowd. “No. That's for Ukraine."
On a warmer note near the end of Trump’s speech, he thanked his family members for joining him at the convention as it concluded on Thursday night, including Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner — who have publicly distanced themselves from the former president in recent years. The pro-Israel megadonor Miriam Adelson, who is bankrolling a super PAC to boost Trump, was also seated in a box further up in the hall. | sights on shapiro Jewish Democrats cautiously cheer a potential Josh Shapiro ticket  JUSTIN MERRIMAN/GETTY IMAGES As pressure mounts for President Joe Biden to step aside, Pennsylvanians and pundits have their attention focused on the state’s governor, Josh Shapiro: Could the popular Democrat be elevated to serve as a running mate to Kamala Harris, or even to top the ticket? Jewish Democrats regard the possibility of Shapiro, a proudly Jewish politician who ran a TV ad showing his family celebrating Shabbat, serving as president or vice president with excitement — and a dash of trepidation, Jewish Insider’s Gabby Deutch reports.
Bigger meaning: “Jews are always split between being both proud and concerned,” said Larry Ceisler, a public affairs executive in Pennsylvania. The hype surrounding Shapiro, who won by a landslide in 2022, is not new. For years, discussing whether Shapiro might be the first Jewish president has been something of a parlor game in Jewish political circles. But now that the hypothetical is becoming slightly closer to a realistic situation, American Jews are considering what it would mean for a Jewish politician to be on the ballot for president or vice president, especially given today's charged climate of rising antisemitism in the wake of Oct. 7 and the Israel's war against Hamas in Gaza.

Cori Bush’s (D-MO) reelection campaign organized by far-left groups including Jewish Voice for Peace and IfNotNow, Jewish Insider’s Marc Rod reports.
Also involved: Other organizers and speakers on the call, convened by a group calling itself “Jews for Cori,” included Beth Miller, political director of JVP Action; INN spokesperson Eva Borgwardt; Abbas Alawieh, Bush’s former congressional chief of staff and a spokesperson for the Uncommitted campaign; and anti-Zionist Jewish activist Naomi Klein, a longtime member of JVP.

Bonus: AIPAC’s United Democracy Project super PAC announced an additional $1 million in spending in Bush’s congressional district yesterday, bringing it up to $5.8 million so far, with nearly three weeks to go until the primary. Minneapolis rematch Pro-Israel groups steering clear of Ilhan Omar, to her rival's frustration  AP PHOTO/STEVE KARNOWSKI Following Rep. Jamaal Bowman’s (D-NY) landslide defeat last month, leading pro-Israel groups that spent heavily to help unseat him have now turned their focus to the next vulnerable Squad member on the primary calendar, Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO), who is also seeking to fend off a well-funded challenger. Some pro-Israel activists, however, are also wondering why those groups haven’t engaged in what has so far remained a more low-profile House race in Minneapolis, where Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) is preparing for a rematch against Don Samuels, a former city councilman who almost pulled off a surprise upset last election cycle against one of the most outspoken Israel critics in the House, Jewish Insider’s Matthew Kassel reports.
Samuels says: With early voting already underway in the Aug. 13 primary, a week after Bush’s race concludes, the matchup has yet to draw outside spending from national pro-Israel groups, which at this stage have announced plans to target only a small handful of Democratic incumbents in the current election cycle. “I think it's a mistake for anybody who sees the direction the country is going in, who sees Ilhan’s role in it in terms of the divisiveness in general and, in this specific case, the challenges in the Middle East that are so fraught,” Samuels, now 75, said in an interview with JI last week, accusing Omar’s rhetoric toward Israel of “exacerbating those tensions.”

Strategy session: Amos Yadlin, the former head of the IDF’s military intelligence directorate, said that Israel needs to “redefine the goals of the war” in Gaza against Hamas, while offering strong criticism of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. “This is the time to say enough is enough with Gaza, bring back these people — it's important to our national unity and sense of security — and start to solve the strategic problem that this war created,” Yadlin said. Read more here.
Palestinian perspective: Salam Fayyad, the former prime minister of the Palestinian Authority seen as a reformist, argued that Hamas should be brought into the Palestine Liberation Organization and that the U.S. should support a United Nations Security Council resolution backing Palestinians’ right to statehood. “Hamas is a political movement and ideology,” Fayyad said. “The only way you can deal with the political ideology is to have a competitive ideology that is seen as competitive by the people.” Read more here.
Firm friends: Sheikh Nasser Bin Hamad Al Khalifa, Bahrain’s national security advisor, said his country remains committed to the Abraham Accords despite regional backlash toward Israel and is “proud” to be part of U.S. and Israeli cooperative military efforts. Asked why his country remains committed to the Abraham Accords despite intense anger in the Arab world over Israel’s operations in Gaza, Al Khalifa described the normalization agreement as “one of the most important milestones that we have achieved.” Read more here.
Also at Aspen: Condoleezza Rice, the former secretary of state during the Bush administration, said that the Republican Party has shifted away from the Reaganite views on foreign policy that dominated the Bush years. Rice said that conservative internationalists need to “start to think, what of the international position do we need to preserve in order to play the role that we always have, which is providing a balance of power.” Read more here. thirty years on Cardin: U.S. 'could do more' to seek justice for victims of AMIA bombing  KEVIN DIETSCH/GETTY IMAGES Sen. Ben Cardin (D-MD) vowed on Thursday that the United States remained committed to supporting Argentina in ensuring accountability for the bombings in the 1990s of the Associación Mutual Israelita Argentina (AMIA) and the Israeli Embassy in Buenos Aires. Cardin, who chairs the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, led a delegation to Buenos Aires this week to commemorate the 32nd anniversary of the bombing of the Israeli Embassy in Argentina, in which 29 people were killed, and the 30th anniversary of the AMIA bombing, the latter of which left 85 people dead. Reps. Steny Hoyer (D-MD), Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL), Brad Schneider (D-IL) and Steve Cohen (D-TN) joined Cardin on the delegation, Jewish Insider’s Emily Jacobs reports.
Pressure push: Maryland’s senior senator, who is retiring at the end of this term, told JI in an interview that victims cannot have closure without justice being served, and that the U.S. “could do more” to ensure that outcome. “The [Interpol] Red Notices need to be complied with and they need to be extended. I think we can help in making that a reality because they expire shortly. We need to put pressure on other governments to enforce the Red Notice. We need to have timely interactions so that people who are accountable, who are responsible, can be actually apprehended and held for their crimes. So yes, I think the United States could do more,” Cardin said.

State Department statement: U.S. Secretary of State Tony Blinken’s statement condemning antisemitism on the 30th anniversary of the AMIA attack included a mention of Islamophobia and hate crimes against Muslims. roundtable reflections Emhoff says WH will 'soon' release new guidance on combating Islamophobia  ANDREW HARNIK/GETTY IMAGE Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff said on Thursday that the Biden administration plans to soon release new guidance on best practices for combating Islamophobia. Emhoff revealed the news while kicking off a roundtable on “interfaith coalition building” he convened with a group of religious leaders at the White House, after noting that many of those participating in Thursday’s meeting are “part of the interagency group that the president stood up to counter antisemitism and also Islamophobia,” Jewish Insider’s Emily Jacobs reports.
Coming soon: "The first deliverable, in May of 2023, was the first-ever national strategy to counter antisemitism. We are now getting into year two with additional actions. There will be an Islamophobia plan coming out soon as well, and making sure we are fighting hate wherever it exists,” Emhoff said after touting the administration's efforts to “counter hate and restore unity.”

He has repeatedly requested an interview with Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine but wants to conduct it in a third country because he believes (without offering any evidence) that Ukrainian intelligence is trying to kill him. The president of El Salvador, Nayib Bukele, hugely popular at home for eradicating rampant gang crime but widely criticized for alleged human-rights abuses, visited Carlson in Maine for bird hunting in November 2022.” [WSJ]
A Spy’s Secrets: In Tablet, Martin Sivak spotlights José Pérez, a spy from Argentina’s Federal Police who infiltrated the country’s Jewish community and likely played a role in the AMIA bombing 30 years ago. “From the AMIA bombing on, according to his version of events, he has felt an unbearable guilt for having funneled material that might have served in planning the attack or in the bombing of the Israeli Embassy in Buenos Aires in March 1992, which resulted in 22 people killed and more than 240 wounded. In both cases — the embassy and the AMIA bombings — Pérez delivered building characteristics, access points, hours, schedules, security systems, weak points, and methods for entering and exiting without detection. He himself entered both buildings several times before and after the attacks.” [Tablet] | Be featured: Email us to inform the JI readership of your upcoming event, job opening, or other communication. | Sen.
