Meanwhile was the Hezbollah"attack" fake?
This is a fairly rightwing Anglo-Israeli journalist in a right wing paper

"top 50 Zionist influencers"
In celebration of Israel's Independence Day, Social Lite Creative has compiled the Top 50 Zionist Influencers of 2020 based on over 600 nominations from communities around the world.
This list was chosen based on the number of followers as well as the impact these individuals have on their respective communities.
4. JK ROWLING
Bestselling Author
Throughout the battle against antisemitism in the UK Labour Party, JK Rowling was an outspoken critic of the blatant and disturbing bigotry demonstrated against Jews from Jeremy Corbyn and his followers. Rowling, a Labour Party supporter herself, faced immense criticism, but never backed down in standing with the Jewish community, especially on social media.
7. RACHEL RILEY
"Journalist
Rachel Riley is an accomplished British broadcast journalist who publicly spoke out against the UK Labour Party's shameful antisemitism under Jeremy Corbyn in 2018. Instead of being listened to as a British Jew herself, she was the recipient of horrific antisemitic abuse on social media. Instead of backing down, Riley doubled down and became an advocate against antisemitism and online harassment of Jews."
14. KEIR STARMER
Leader of the UK Labour Party
The newly elected UK Labour Party leader has made a splash with his election when one of his first actions was to apologize for the outrageous antisemitism of the Labour Party under Jeremy Corbyn. Additionally, Starmer has extended family living in Israel, and his wife's family is Jewish. Starmer stated, " I support Zionism without qualification.” While it remains to be see what UK Labour will do to amend the wrongdoings of Corbyn's antisemitism, Keir Starmer is most certainly a good start, and he has access to use his position for the betterment of UK Labour. 2020 will give him the opportunity to do the right thing and set an example in a post-Corbyn Labour Party.

Editorial from Ha'aretz
Three months’ community service: That’s the punishment in Israel for a soldier who shot to death a Palestinian whose only crime was that he’d come to the aid of another Palestinian, who had himself been mistakenly shot by the same soldier. That’s the plea agreement that will come before the Jaffa Military Court on Monday for approval. Three months’ community service and a demotion for the killing of an innocent person.
The Israel Defense Forces couldn’t be clearer in the message it’s delivering to its soldiers in the territories. Did you shoot a Palestinian for no reason? Not pleasant, but not terrible, either. If we were to judge by the punishment, from the IDF’s perspective this was no more than a tragedy of errors, even though we’re talking about a soldier who shot two people in one day.
The excuse is always the same excuse: “A warning was received shortly before the shooting regarding the possibility of an attack in the area,” the IDF spokesman said. But from the indictment it’s clear that the primary mistake in this awful case was to be born Palestinian in the occupied territories.
