Ye, the rapper formerly known as Kanye West, posted another antisemitic rant on X/Twitter early Friday morning, similar to the one he posted on the social media platform in 2022 targeting Jews.

Ye posted a series of antisemitic messages in which he repeatedly praised and expressed love for Nazi leader Adolf Hitler, and went on a rampage about how much he dislikes Jews. He declared “Im a Nazi” and “Im racist, Stereo types exist for a reason and they all be true.” He later added, “I love Hitler now what bi—es” and said, “Me loving Hitler is old news” as well as. “I am God Jesus Hitler Ye Like I told you.”

He claimed Jews are “always gonna steal” and “actually hate White people and use Black people.” He also said some of his best friends are Jewish “and I dont trust any of them.”

“White people do not f—k with ni—as they leave that to the Jews If you think you getting money with a white person its not true that so called white person is actually Jewish Jews hate Whites because of the Germans from World War 2,” he tweeted. He also admitted, “I dont even know  what the f—k anti semetic [sic] means.” He claimed antisemitism is “just some bulls—t Jewish people made up to protect their bulls—t.”

The rapper also criticized Tesla CEO and X owner Elon Musk for stealing his “Nazi swag” after the latter stirred controversy for making a hand gesture at US President Donald Trump’s inauguration rally last month that resembled a Nazi salute. Ye tweeted, “Elon stole my Nazi swag at the inauguration yoooo my guy get your own third rale.”

In October 2022, Ye tweeted about wanting to physically harm Jews. “I’m a bit sleepy tonight but when I wake up I’m going death con 3 On JEWISH PEOPLE,” he wrote in the since-deleted post, referring to the US military’s DEFCON system for rating how alert the armed forces should be at a given moment in the face of a threat. He also tweeted at the time: “The funny thing is I actually can’t be Anti Semitic [sic] because black people are actually Jew also You guys have toyed with me and tried to black ball anyone whoever opposes your agenda.”

Ye lost a number of brand partnerships because of his remarks, including the Adidas and Yeezy collaboration, and his X account was temporarily locked. He later apologized for his antisemitic comments — in Hebrew — and said he “definitely was drinking” when he was posted the antisemitic comments in 2022, specifically Hennessy.

Not long after Ye’s antisemitic rampage in 2022, he praised Hitler in an interview with far-right talk show host Alex Jones and promoted antisemitic conspiracy theories and stereotypes during an interview with then-Fox News host Tucker Carlson.

On Friday, Ye tweeted that he “will not apologize” for his antisemitic remarks this time and insisted that he was sober during his foul-mouthed tirade.

He said: “Aint nobody ramped up either Im calm as ice this is how I really feel how I really felt and how I will always feel … any Jewish person that does business with me needs to know I dont like or trust any Jewish person amd [sic] this is completely sober with no Hennessy [sic].”

“You Jewish ni—as dont run me no more,” he added. “This is a free country and this is my free opinion.” He said in a separate post: “Im never apologizing for my Jewish comments. I can say whatever the f—k I wanna say forever. Where’s my f—king apology for freezing my accounts. Suck my d—k how’s that for an apology.”

“IF I LOST EVERYTHING AGAIN TONIGHT WAS WORTH IT I CAN DIE AFTER THIS,” he stated.

The majority of Ye’s antisemitic comments from Friday morning are no longer on X, but it’s unclear if he deleted them or if X removed them from the platform.

US Rep. Ritchie Torres (D-NY) said Ye “should be ostracized for his rabid antisemitism.”

The Campaign Against Antisemitism and the organization StopAntisemitism both called on Musk to delete Ye’s account from X in light of his recent antisemitic tirade.

“Once again, Ye has gone on an antisemitic rampage online. It couldn’t be any clearer that he is an unrepentant, proud antisemite,” said a CAA spokesperson. “More people have viewed these posts than there are Jews on the planet. It is obvious that Ye has not learned his lesson the first time, when Adidas ended its partnership with him, following our call to do so. At a time of unprecedented antisemitism, there can be no mistaking this incitement for exactly what it is. We call on Elon Musk to remove him from X.”

At this very moment, @kanyewest is going on yet another antisemitic rampage.

StandWithUs encouraged Jews to exhibit pride in their Jewish identity, despite the hateful remarks made by the rapper.

“Once again, Kanye West spewed vile antisemitism on his X account, which reaches millions of people,” StandWithUs said in a statement on X. “This is indicative of how mainstream antisemitism has become. The more hatred and bigotry that Jewish people face, the more important it is for Jews to carry their identity like a badge of honor. To every Jewish person out there: We hope that even in the face of hate, you will celebrate your Jewish identity with pride and love. We Stand With You.”

The Anti-Defamation League condemned Ye’s “egregious display of antisemitism, racism, and misogyny.” It reminded the public that according to ADL research, 30 antisemitic incidents across the US were tied to Ye’s antisemitic comments in 2022. “We condemn this dangerous behavior and need to call it what it is: a flagrant and unequivocal display of hate,” the organization said.

The Combat Antisemitism Movement told Ye, “Your antisemitic rants are as absurd and repulsive this time around as they were back in 2022. We hope you get the help you so clearly need, and fast.”

David Draiman, the Jewish lead singer of the rock band Disturbed, said in a post on X addressed to Ye: “Maybe you should apologize to the world for being a miserable, overhyped, sexist, racist, antisemitic c—t who has nothing better to do than harass #Jews ?”

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyuahu has presented to US officials a proposal to end the war in Gaza in exchange for the Palestinian terrorist group Hamas giving up power and its leaders leaving the enclave, according to a new report.

Under the plan, Israel would agree to release “senior” Palestinian prisoners that it did not want to free during the first phase of the ceasefire and hostage-release deal, which began on Jan. 19, the news site Axios reported on Thursday. In return, Hamas would release the remaining hostages, cede control of Gaza, and send its top leaders — including those serving jail sentences — into exile.

During his trip to Washington this week, Netanyahu reportedly informed the Trump administration that he does not believe the war in Gaza can end while Hamas controls the coastal enclave, arguing that an unconditional surrender by the terrorist group and an expulsion of its leaders would open the possibility for a lasting peace. 

According to Axios, Netanyahu told US officials this week that he wants to prolong the first phase of the ceasefire beyond the 42-day benchmark in order to free more than the 33 hostages originally agreed upon. Israel, which initially agreed to release more than 1,900 Palestinian prisoners during the first phase of the deal, would release more in exchange for the release of more hostages.

Israeli officials close to the deal believe that a renegotiation could result in securing the release of two or three more hostages during the first phase. Furthermore, observers believe that an extension of the first phase of the deal would buy Israel more time to negotiate the freedom of its citizens without having to vacate troops from Gaza.

If Netanyahu succeeds in extending the first phase of the ceasefire, he plans on presenting Hamas officials a proposal to release a set of “senior” Palestinian prisoners that Israel initially refused to free, Axios reported.

According to Israeli officials, Hamas has reportedly agreed to hand over civilian governance of Gaza and relinquish reconstruction duties to the Palestinian Authority or another party.

However, there are some potential roadblocks that could result in a resumption of the war in Gaza, senior Israeli officials warn. The terrorist group will not agree to disarm or dissolve its military wing, according to Axios. Moreover, Israeli officials say the odds that Hamas leaders willingly exile themselves from the Gaza Strip are “extremely low.”

As Israel prepares for the fifth wave of hostages to be released under the recently brokered ceasefire with Hamas on Saturday, the nation remains vigilant against potential violations by the Palestinian terrorist group.

A significant aspect of the ceasefire agreement involves the IDF’s planned withdrawal from the Netzarim corridor, a strategic area that bisects the Gaza Strip. If the process proceeds without incident, the military intends to complete this withdrawal by Sunday, signaling a step toward de-escalation.

However, the Israeli military on Friday said that it had bolstered its presence at key points within the Gaza Strip. The Southern Command’s leadership has conducted multiple field assessments alongside frontline soldiers to ensure readiness for any unforeseen developments during the hostage transfer process.

Israel’s defense ministry said that any violation of the agreement will be dealt with severely.

Hamas claimed that Israel had not fulfilled its side of the deal in transferring humanitarian aid, but Israel denied the claim, saying that 12,600 trucks of aid had arrived in Gaza since the beginning of the deal’s implementation on Jan. 19.

Israel was slated to receive the list of hostages scheduled for release in the fifth wave on Friday, but Hamas delayed announcing the names of the three Israelis due to be exchanged for Palestinian prisoners, who were largely detained for terrorist activity.

Unlike previous exchanges, Hamas has not committed to a specific category of hostages for this round, adding a layer of uncertainty and tension for the families awaiting news.

Israel is exerting diplomatic pressure on mediators to prioritize the release of Shiri Bibas and her young children, Kfir and Ariel.

The forthcoming hostage releases over the next month under phase one of the ceasefire deal are expected to include 20 individuals: seven adults over the age of 50, ten identified as sick or wounded, and three members of the Bibas family.

The list of sick or wounded individuals includes American-Israeli Sagi Dekel-Chen.

Hamas-led Palestinian terrorists started the war in Gaza when they murdered 1,200 people and kidnapped 251 hostages during their invasion of southern Israel on Oct. 7, 2023. Israel responded with a military campaign aimed at freeing the hostages and dismantling Hamas’s military and governing capabilities in the neighboring enclave. The conflict raged for nearly 16 months until both sides agreed to last month’s ceasefire and hostage-release deal, the first phase of which is set to last six weeks.

During phase one, Hamas is supposed to inform Israel of the next hostages to be freed 24 hours before their release.

US President Donald Trump’s new proposal to “take over” Gaza has introduced a contentious element into the fragile ceasefire agreement.

Critics argue that the plan could undermine the negotiations between Israel and Hamas, but others say it will only strengthen Israel’s position. An unnamed Hamas official cited by Israel’s Channel 12 said that the terrorist group would see how the plan develops before deciding to change the terms of the deal. Nonetheless, the official said that the “takeover” proposal would not thwart the first phase of the plan.

Seventy-nine hostages remain in Hamas captivity. Upon the conclusion of the initial phase of the agreement, 59 hostages will still be held in Gaza, with 35 already declared deceased.
