Pondering the state of American Jewry
Greta Thunberg’s recent attempt to breach Israel’s naval blockade of Gaza under the guise of delivering humanitarian aid is not just another misguided act of activism—it’s a reckless and dangerous provocation. By participating in a performative boat voyage organized by groups with questionable affiliations, she has shown a blatant disregard for the security concerns of …
This week, Hamas rejected yet another ceasefire proposal, this time from U.S. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff. Why? Because ending the war would mean giving up power—and Hamas isn’t willing to do that. While innocent Palestinians suffer in Gaza, Hamas’s leadership enjoys lavish lifestyles in Doha and Beirut, safely insulated from the devastation they’ve unleashed. It’s …
International Criminal Court prosecutor Karim Khan is making headlines again, this time with his failed plan to issue arrest warrants for Israeli leaders Bezalel Smotrich and Itamar Ben Gvir — a move clearly meant to cast Israeli policy in Judea and Samaria as criminal. But before he could act, Khan was forced to take a …
Edan Alexander’s release from Hamas captivity marks a bittersweet moment for the Jewish community, as his harrowing account sheds light on the ongoing hostage crisis in Gaza. Held for months, often bound and blindfolded, Edan endured unimaginable conditions, including a tunnel collapse and severe abuse during his early days in captivity. His diet fluctuated with …
The recent wave of protests in Gaza against Hamas has laid bare a glaring hypocrisy among many so-called pro-Palestinian activists in the West. While thousands of Gazans, including the tragically murdered 22-year-old Oday Nasser Al Rabay, have risked their lives to decry the terrorist group’s oppressive rule, the silence from groups like National Students for …
Finally, after two years, three terrorists responsible for many terror attacks against both soldiers and civilians – just regular folks – have been indicted. The indictment says that the three participated in hostile acts of terror all through 2023-2024. This includes hurling boulders at IDF soldiers, lobbing firebombs and bottles of tar at Israeli cars, …
Arab leaders, it seems, aren’t wild about President Trump’s “Middle East Riviera” for rehabilitating Gaza and the Gazan people. Instead, they’ve decided to go with an Egyptian plan to invest $53b in reconstructing Gaza without moving the Arab residents out. As usual, no one wants these particular Arabs in their country. They’d rather leave them …
Iair Horn, a former hostage released last week, has revealed the harsh details of his captivity in a Hamas tunnel. Horn, who was held with his brother Eitan, shared that they were kept in difficult conditions with several other hostages, suffering from relentless psychological terror and interrogations since October 7. Until his release, Horn had …
Hamas terrorists fired five rockets at Israel’s center from Khan Yunis in the Gaza Strip, reported the IDF following sirens sounded at 11:00 a.m. Israel time. Sirens went off in Tel Aviv, Kfar Chabad, Rishon Lezion, and Holon, among other areas in central Israel. Two women in their 30s sustained light injuries and were transferred …
The GOP has released a new platform, and it’s good news for Israel, as well as for Jewish kids on US campuses. Some select bullet points: “Prevent World War Three, restore peace in Europe and in the Middle East, and build a great Iron Dome missile defense shield over our entire country – all made …
