The severity of the French President's move isn't just because it's an attempt to impose on Israel a clear threat to its security. It's not just because it's a prize for Hamas and terror following Oct. 7th. Why did President Macron choose to announce in July that he intends to…

Here are photos of UN trucks & enough food to feed all of Gaza but it sits rotting! UN is a tool of Hamas! US based GHF is actually delivering food FOR FREE and SAFELY. UN food is either looted by Hamas or rots in the sun! Photos from yesterday.
Today, international journalists saw it for themselves at the Kerem Shalom crossing: warehouses packed with aid, stuck in place. Israel has allowed hundreds of trucks into Gaza- but the UN refuses to distribute them, and Hamas continues to obstruct. The supplies are there. The…

In yet another example of the UN pointing fingers instead of taking action, 950 humanitarian aid trucks organized by Israel and its partners stood ready this week to deliver food and supplies to Gaza’s civilians. But the UN stood by, ignoring its responsibility while continuing…
Footage shows Hamas terrorists gloating as they indulge in lavish meals inside their tunnels, made possible by stealing humanitarian aid from their own civilians. While feasting like kings, they cook up tales and serve lies on a silver platter to the world. Consul General…
A heartbreaking loss💔 Sgt. Maj. (res) Vladimir Loza, 36, fell in Gaza while defending our nation. Hailing from Ashkelon, he heroically chose to return to the battlefield as an IDF reservist, embodying his dedication to Israel. A beloved father, devoted husband, and loyal…

Israel has tragically lost another hero💔 Staff Sgt. Amit Cohen, 19, fell in Gaza while defending our homeland. A native of Holon, Amit was a dedicated neighbor and friend. Grieved by his parents and two younger siblings, his courage and strength will always be with us. May…

NYC commuters shouldn’t have to hide their Hebrew necklaces in a cab. Jewish students deserve to pursue their studies without fear of violence from anti-Israel protesters. The launch of NYC’s new antisemitism task force is an important step in addressing the alarming rise in…

While risking his life in Gaza to protect Israel, Ohad was unable to attend his medical school graduation. To ensure his achievement was honored, @BarIlanU sent his diploma directly to him there. Now officially a doctor, he received it in full @IDF uniform, embodying Israel’s…

Radical extremism has long targeted minority communities and now is slaughtering Druze civilians in Syria. This is why the world must stand with Israel in protecting them. Read more in @Newsweek: newsweek.com/syrias-forgott…

On October 7, 15-year-old Gali Eilon became a lifeline for her community in Kfar Aza. From the shelter of her safe room, she coordinated a rescue effort—managing desperate pleas for help, sending live locations to soldiers, and prioritizing who needed saving first. She put…

“They shot the bed — the bullet missed my head.” Doron Steinberger was held in brutal conditions for 471 days in Hamas tunnels. Six months after her release, she’s speaking out for the first time — recounting the terrifying moments of her abduction from Kfar Aza. 📷: Ziv koren,…

31 years ago today, Iran and Hezbollah carried out the AMIA bombing in Buenos Aires, murdering 85 innocent people. 31 years later, the Iranian regime still pursues the same goal—funding terror and targeting Jewish lives around the world. We remember the victims. We stand with…

“They’d rather chant ‘Death to America and Israel’ — it’s unbelievable this is happening in the heart of the U.S.” Watch Consul General @Ofir_Akunis speak out at @QC_News, calling out against the rising hate toward Jews, Israel, and America on U.S. campuses.
Heroism defined Erez Halfon’s life long before he ever received a medal for it. He once saved his IDF commander by preventing him from bleeding out, and on Oct. 7, he spent hours rescuing civilians at Kibbutz Be’eri. After months of reserve duty, he was on a personal trip…
