- President Donald Trump is signing an executive order today to rename the Department of Defense as the Department of War, the name used through the first half of the 20th century until its renaming in 1949 as part of the implementation of the National Security Act of 1947.
- Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) and Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC), the chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee, are endorsing Rep. Ashley Hinson (R-IA) today in her bid to succeed Sen. Joni Ernst (R-IA). Read more from JI's Emily Jacobs here.
- We're continuing to monitor the situation in California, where members of the state's Jewish Caucus are moving toward watering down antisemitism legislation that has faced significant pushback from the California Teacher's Association. Proposed concessions on the legislation — which has until the end of the legislative session next Friday to pass — include the removal of penalties against schools that foster antisemitic learning environments and a provision setting guidance for teaching subjects that could be considered controversial.
- We're also keeping an eye on the situation in Israel, following the IDF's announcement that it was in control of 40% of Gaza City amid continued calls this week from senior Israeli officials including IDF Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir and Mossad head David Barnea for Jerusalem to accept a temporary ceasefire. Earlier today, Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz announced the beginning of an aerial campaign targeting Hamas operatives in Gaza City. As Israel marks 700 days since the Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas terror attacks, the terror group released a video of Guy Gilboa-Dalal and Alon Ohel.
- Looking ahead to the weekend, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) is bringing his "Fighting Oligarchy" tour to New York City on Saturday, where he'll campaign with Democratic mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani.
- On Sunday, the Jewish Theological Seminary kicks off its inaugural storytelling festival. Etgar Keret, Jonathan Safran Foer, Jodi Kantor, Shalom Auslander, Alex Edelman and Deborah Treisman are all slated to speak at the event, which runs through Tuesday.

A QUICK WORD WITH JI'S JOSH KRAUSHAAR |
Just when it looked like far-left New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani was on track to become mayor, in part thanks to persistent divisions among his opposition, there are signs of a possible consolidation of the crowded field. The New York Times reported that embattled Mayor Eric Adams is considering a job offer from the Trump administration — a position at the Department of Housing and Urban Development or an ambassadorship have been floated — that would entice him to withdraw from the race. The paper is also reporting that Republican nominee Curtis Sliwa has also been approached by Trump allies, but Sliwa has remained adamant that he is sticking in the race. All told, Trump's team is doing everything it can behind the scenes to eliminate the structural hurdles for a successful anti-Mamdani coalition, without publicly putting its finger on the scale for the leading Mamdani challenger, former Gov. Andrew Cuomo. (It's also notable that Trump, even though it would be in his political interest to use a Mamdani mayoralty as a battering ram against Democrats, is more concerned about the policy consequences of a socialist mayor in his hometown.) A one-on-one Mamdani-Cuomo general election showdown is still far from a sure thing, but it's worth noting that the matchup would be quite competitive, according to the available public polling. Even the pro-Mamdani pollster Adam Carlson found in July that Mamdani only led Cuomo by three points among registered voters in a head-to-head matchup, though the lead expanded to double digits when the most likely voters were polled.

| Columbia's new school year starts quietly, but antisemitism still present |
The first day of the new school year on Tuesday at Columbia University was met with a wary sense of relief from Jewish students and faculty, who returned to campus unsure whether recent reforms aimed at combating campus antisemitism would make any difference. Scenes that have become commonplace on Columbia's campus over the past two years — masked anti-Israel demonstrators barging into classrooms and the library banging on drums and chanting "Free Palestine" or hourslong demonstrations in the center of campus of more than 100 students calling for an "intifada revolution" — were nowhere to be seen. Still, in quieter ways, there were moments behind the tall iron entrance gates reminiscent of the antisemitic turbulence that grew commonplace on the Morningside Heights campus since Hamas' Oct. 7, 2023, terrorist attacks, Jewish Insider's Haley Cohen reports. What went down: Three members of Columbia University Apartheid Divest, a coalition of over 80 university student groups that Instagram banned earlier this year for promoting violence, protested Columbia Hillel's club fair, distributing fliers urging Jewish students to "drop Hillel" because it "supports genocide." Elsewhere on campus, an organizer of the 2024 anti-Israel encampment movement, Cameron Jones, paraded a sign that read, "some of your classmates were IOF [Israeli Occupation Forces] criminals committing genocide in Palestine." Within hours, Columbia announced it had "initiated investigations into incidents that involve potential violations of the University's Student Anti-Discrimination and Discriminatory Harassment Policies and University Rules."

New Columbia dean leading 'meaningful dialogue' supported Palestinian 'resistance movement' |
Columbia University's new hire for senior associate dean of community and culture was a signatory of a 2021 letter supporting the Palestinian "indigenous resistance movement" and rejecting the "the fiction of a 'two-sided conflict.'" He is tasked with leading "meaningful dialogue" in his new position. Jonathon Kahn signed on to the "Vassar Community Members' Statement of Solidarity with the Palestinian People" while a professor of religion at Vassar College, Jewish Insider's Haley Cohen reports. "We affirm that the Palestinian struggle is an indigenous resistance movement confronting settler colonialism, apartheid, and ethnic cleansing, and stand in solidarity with the Palestinian people," the letter read. Now and then: The senior associate dean of community and culture role is a new position, created in the wake of increased antisemitism that has plagued Columbia's campus since the Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas terror attacks in Israel. Kahn, who has no known social media presence, said in a statement sent to the Washington Free Beacon on Wednesday regarding the petition that he is "a Zionist" who "believe[s] deeply in Israel's right to exist and thrive as a Jewish state" and also "deeply value[s] Palestinian life and Palestinians' aspirations for statehood." He said, "My beliefs are not fully captured in this letter that was authored more than four years ago." Read the full story here. |

McCormick urges Trump administration to retaliate against Norges Fund's BDS move |
Sen. Dave McCormick (R-PA) wrote to top trade officials in the Trump administration urging them to take action to respond to the decision by the Norges Bank Investment Fund, Norway's sovereign wealth fund, to divest from U.S. equipment firm Caterpillar because of the Israeli military's use of its products in the West Bank and Gaza, Jewish Insider's Marc Rod reports. McCormick served from 2020-2022 as CEO of Bridgewater Associates, which manages portions of Norges' portfolio. What he said: "As the Trump Administration continues to take bold action to rebalance global trade, I urge you to also address the disturbing politicization of sovereign wealth fund investment decisions against American companies," McCormick said in a letter, sent Thursday, to Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick and U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer. He called on the administration to take Norges' moves against American companies into account in ongoing trade negotiations with Norway, calling the effort a "form of economic warfare directed by a foreign government against the U.S. economy."

Ro Khanna to appear at conference featuring pro-terrorism, antisemitic speakers |
Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) is set to speak later this month at ArabCon, an annual convention hosted by the Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee, joining a lineup that includes numerous speakers with records of support for terrorism and antisemitism, Jewish Insider's Marc Rod reports. Speaker list: Among the controversial speakers on the ArabCon lineup are Electronic Intifada Executive Director Ali Abunimah, CAIR San Francisco Executive Director Zahra Billoo and activist Linda Sarsour. "I have never been to a conference where I agree with every speaker, but speaking at ArabCon is important," Khanna said in a statement to JI. "I will discuss my efforts to recognize a Palestinian state without Hamas as part of a two state solution. Recognition of Palestinian statehood — alongside continued efforts to secure Israel's safety and guarantee its future as a democratic homeland for the Jewish people — is essential to achieving peace."

| United to resume direct flights to Israel from Washington, Chicago |
United Airlines announced Thursday it plans to resume direct flights to Israel from Chicago O'Hare and Washington Dulles international airports for the first time since the Oct. 7, 2023, terrorist attacks on Israel, Jewish Insider's Haley Cohen reports. Flights from Chicago are set to commence Nov. 1 and will operate four times per week, and flights from Washington are scheduled to begin Nov. 2 and will operate three times per week, according to the airline. Direct choice: Currently no other airline offers direct flights to Israel from Chicago or Washington. United and Delta offer daily flights between Israel and the New York area. "The resumption of these flights underscores United's longstanding commitment to Tel Aviv," Patrick Quayle, United's senior vice president of global network planning and alliances, said in a statement.

Faith communities 'stand up' to antisemitism in new FCAS initiative |
Congregants of a Hindu temple on Long Island that was vandalized last year and worshippers of a Methodist Church in Oklahoma City, who last year put on a musical production of "Fiddler on the Roof" to learn about Jewish culture, may not appear to have much in common. But this Sunday, both houses of worship — together with an expected crowd of nearly 1 million congregants around the country — will join forces for the inaugural "Stand Up Sunday," a show of force in the fight against antisemitism and all faith-based violence, Jewish Insider's Haley Cohen reports. Show of solidarity: As part of the effort, spearheaded by Robert Kraft's Foundation to Combat Antisemitism and the Appeal of Conscience Foundation, founded by Rabbi Arthur Schneier, organizers said each congregation "will dedicate their services to raising awareness about the sharp increase of antisemitism and all forms of hate against religious communities in the United States by standing together on September 7." FCAS' Blue Square pins will be distributed to attendees "as a visible display of solidarity across faiths," the group said. Congregational leaders will deliver remarks on antisemitism and faith-based hate in their sermons and houses of worship will place signs and posters throughout their buildings.

Kim or Khamenei?: In Foreign Affairs, Vipin Narang and Pranay Vaddi of MIT's Center for Nuclear Security Policy posit that as a result of the damage inflicted to Iran's nuclear program during the 12-day Israel-Iran war, North Korea will become a model for rogue states looking to advance their nuclear programs. "In contrast to Tehran, Pyongyang largely avoided delays in weaponizing its program; it made steady progress toward a bomb, using periodic engagement to test U.S. resolve over possible agreements, routinely relied on feints and stalling tactics, and weathered tremendous diplomatic and economic pressure along the way. When diplomacy broke down, North Korea rapidly advanced its program so its Kim regime was prepared to approach any future engagement from a position of greater strength. … For would-be proliferator states, the lessons are dangerously clear: do not wait to get the bomb, assume major powers will attack, and do not trust that diplomacy is within reach. In other words, be like Kim, not like Khamenei." [ForeignAffairs] The New Axis Powers: In The New York Times, the Center for a New American Security's Richard Fontaine and Andrea Kendall-Taylor caution that this week's summit in Beijing with the leaders of Russia, China, North Korea and Iran signals a growing threat to the U.S.-led world order. "Though they may occasionally come to one another's aid — like the North Korean soldiers who joined their Russian allies in battle against Ukrainian forces — that is not the point. The group has a much more ambitious objective. It seeks, like the World War II era Axis Powers of Germany, Italy and Japan, "a new order of things," in which each country can claim "its own proper place." Discontented with an international system they believe denies them the status and freedom of action they deserve by virtue of their power and civilizations, they are united in the desire to change it. … Indeed, the gathering in Beijing suggests that the axis, rather than withering following the war in Iran in June, has momentum. Its members sense an opportunity." [NYTimes] Laying Blame: In The Times of Israel, Menachem Rosensaft, who teaches a genocide law course at Cornell Law School, pushes back against the International Association of Genocide Scholars' recent passage of a resolution labeling Israel's actions in Gaza a genocide. "Nowhere in the IAGS resolution is there even an allusion to, let alone explicit mention of, the facts that it is Hamas, not Israel, that has used Palestinian civilians in Gaza, including children, as human shields; that it was Hamas, not Israel, that established military installations behind schools and hospitals, making them legitimate targets in Israel's wholly legitimate efforts to eliminate the threat posed by such military installations; that by all reliable accounts, Hamas bears more than its fair share of responsibility for preventing the distribution of humanitarian aid in Gaza."
