The network reported that during the same ministerial meeting Sunday, data was presented showing that in the second half of 2024 physical antisemitic attacks rose by 104% while online antisemitic cases rose by 63%

The meeting’s objective was reportedly to devise procedures for dealing with cases similar to Sunday’s Brazil case.

Meanwhile, Haaretz reported Sunday that a joint desk has been set up by the Military Advocate General, the Foreign Ministry, the National Security Council, and the Shin Bet to assess legal threats to soldiers abroad.

“The Foreign Ministry draws the attention of Israelis, to posts on social media about their military service, and to the fact that
anti-Israeli elements may exploit these posts to initiate futile legal proceedings against them,” the Foreign Ministry added.

“The State of Israel is dealing today with an organized campaign by pro-Palestinian organizations that are trying to gather materials that soldiers have posted over the course of the war, and to use them to try to have those soldiers arrested,” explained Israeli Ambassador to Brazil, Daniel Zonshine to Channel 12 on Sunday.

Yuval Kaplinski, former head of the International Division of the State Attorney’s Office, told the network:
“If a soldier posts a video in which you see destroyed houses, or posts [a video of] a demolition of houses, and he says:
1. ‘We’re going to blow up all the houses in Gaza
2. and kill civilians, and settle there, and destroy all of Gaza and all the Gazans,’

He is, essentially, declaring that he is carrying out a war crime.”

If so, such insensitive and irresponsible posts would be their death knell indeed
