“Nazi!”: Wounded IDF Hero Assaulted by Chareidim on Way to Rehab for Severe Injuries

 

A severely wounded IDF officer was verbally and physically assaulted by a group of young Chareidi men on his way to a rehabilitation center.

MK Hili Tropper (National Unity) revealed the disturbing account in a public post, sharing a message he received from the officer, who has spent the past year and eight months recovering from life-altering injuries sustained during Operation Swords of Iron.

According to the officer, the assault took place at the Bnei Brak junction, a major artery in the largely Charedi city. “About ten young charedim jumped on my vehicle,” he wrote. “They cursed, spat, called me ‘Nazi,’ broke the mirrors. I, an injured IDF officer on crutches, with a brace on my hand — can’t believe it.”

The soldier, who has undergone 12 surgeries and still carries shrapnel in his body, said he served without hesitation to protect Israel — only to find himself the target of hatred from within its borders.

“I did it without thinking twice. That’s how we were raised. And now I find myself surrounded by chants of ‘We’ll die and not enlist,’ by violence, by hate,” the officer wrote.

His message also accused Charedi leadership of enabling extremism through silence. “This doesn’t represent all charedim,” he said. “But when the leadership is silent, some take it to the extreme. We’re not asking for thanks. We’re asking for a state. One state. A state that we’re all part of — even when it hurts.”

Tropper, a former minister and centrist voice in the Knesset, published the officer’s message in full, calling it “a cry that cannot be ignored.”

No arrests have been reported in connection with the attack. Police have not commented on whether an investigation is underway.

Tehran Is Frantically Attempting To Rearm Hezbollah & Houthis

 


A Wall Street Journal report says that Iran is accelerating its efforts to rearm Hezbollah and the Houthis in Yemen.

According to the Meir Amit Intelligence and Terrorism Information Center, Iran has discovered a way to continue to transfer weapons to the Hezbollah terror group through Iraq and Syria. 

Instead of its past tactics of openly transferring truckfuls of weapons and missiles to Lebanon through Syria, it has recently begun using small vehicles for the same purpose and has succeeded in transferring Kornet anti-tank missiles and advanced weaponry into Lebanon.

However, not all transfer attempts were successful. According to the WSJ report, the new Syrian government has intercepted several arms shipments from Tehran to Hezbollah, including Grads rockets and other weaponry. Additionally, Lebanese armed forces have also intercepted weapons shipments, including Russian-made anti-tank missiles, through Syria.

“Iran is rebuilding its presence in the Levant by sending missiles to Hezbollah and weapons from Iraq to Syria,” said Michael Knights, a senior fellow at the U.S.-based Washington Institute for Near East Policy with expertise in Iran’s militia allies.

Iran has also attempted to transfer advanced weapons to the Houthis in Yemen. 

Only weeks after a ceasefire was announced between Iran and Israel, forces from Yemen’s internationally recognized government intercepted a massive shipment of advanced military equipment—750 tons of missiles, drone parts, and warheads sent by Tehran to the Houthis. 

The shipment, which was concealed aboard a ship called a dhow under crates of air conditioners, was intercepted by the National Resistance Force, a military coalition aligned with the Yemeni government. 

The U.S. Central Command confirmed that it was the National Resistance Force’s largest seizure of advanced Iranian conventional weapons and included Iranian-developed Qader antiship missiles and components for the Saqr air-defense system, which the Houthis have used to bring down U.S. MQ-9 Reaper drones. 

“The timing and scale of this shipment strongly suggest Iran is moving quickly to replenish Houthi stockpiles depleted by U.S. airstrikes,” said Mohammed al-Basha, founder of U.S.-based Middle East security advisory Basha Report. It shows Tehran wants to “sustain their high operational tempo targeting Israel and commercial maritime traffic,” he said.

Goldkrap's Vile Remarks on Bereaved Families

 

Aryeh Ehrlich, editor of Mishpacha magazine, delivered a scathing rebuke of MK Yitzhak Goldkrap (United Torah Judaism) after the lawmaker suggested that the grief of religious-Zionist families who lost loved ones in the war with Hamas “should remain with them.”

In a weekend interview with Makor Rishon, Goldkrap stated:
“Their pain should remain with them, and our pain should remain with us. Don’t bring me your pain and pass it onto me. Let’s decide that everyone deals with their own package.”

Ehrlich condemned the comments on social media, writing:
“I am ashamed and humiliated by the words spoken by my representative in the Knesset. I literally bury my head in shame at such callous and un-Jewish quotes like ‘Don’t dump your pain on us’ or ‘Everyone with their own package.’ These alienating remarks go against everything our Sages taught us about the suffering of Israel, and about how when a Jew is in pain, the Divine Presence cries and says, ‘It is too heavy for My head, too heavy for My arm.’”

Ehrlich contrasted Goldkrap’s remarks with the example of Moses, who, despite being exempt from slavery, descended to witness and share the suffering of his brethren in Egypt.

‘This Tone Has No Connection to Haredi Thought’
While acknowledging deep disagreements over army enlistment, Ehrlich emphasized that the Torah approach demands empathy and solidarity:
“This tone-deaf attitude has no connection whatsoever to authentic Haredi thought as we received it from our rabbis across all communities—Sephardic, Lithuanian, and certainly Hasidic, who were raised on the foundations of Ahavat Yisrael. Our rabbis were horrified when Jewish soldiers fell on the battlefield. They declared fasts and held prayer gatherings.”

He recalled moments of communal unity, such as the prayer rally for IDF soldier Nachshon Wachsman in 1994, where Haredi leaders led thousands in fervent prayers. “Where has the basic Jewish empathy for the suffering of our brothers gone?” he asked.

Call for Introspection and Action
Ehrlich warned that statements like Goldkrap’s are not only harmful but contrary to Torah values:
“Such callous statements like ‘that’s your pain’ do not advance Torah study in any way. We must approach bereaved families with reverence and say to them: even if we don’t agree on the issue of yeshiva students, our hearts are with your pain—because the people of Israel are one body.”

He further criticized Haredi MKs for avoiding condolence visits:
“This avoidance breeds insensitivity toward others’ pain—an insensitivity that has nothing to do with our stance on the draft, and in fact, severely damages our concern for the status of yeshiva students.”

‘Silence Is Always an Option’
Concluding his remarks, Ehrlich urged Goldkrap to retract his comments and called on other Haredi representatives to demonstrate compassion:
“I sincerely hope that Goldkrap will find the decency to publicly retract his words—without asterisks, and without claiming ‘my words were taken out of context.’ If they’re not capable of that—then silence is always an option."


France Had been Collaborating With Hamas Murderers Since 2020

 


Paris has been carrying out “secret contacts” with Hamas at least since October 2020, when a high-ranking French intelligence official met two with senior Hamas figures in Doha, Israel’s Channel 12 reported on Saturday.

The meeting, initiated by the French, came to Israel’s attention through a document captured by the IDF in Gaza, which provided a detailed report on the meeting.

On Oct. 16, 2020, the No. 3 in French intelligence met with Hamas senior officials Moussa Abu Marzouk and Khaled Mashaal, respectively the former and current chairman of Hamas’s so-called political bureau.

The captured document revealed the minutes of the Qatar talks.

“I am happy about this meeting. I come to it with President [Emmanuel] Macron’s approval. We don’t want to talk only to the Palestinian Authority, but also to you. We, the French, are historically close to the Palestinian struggle,” the French intelligence representative told the Hamas officials.

Abu Marzouk and Mashaal replied: “Even if the international community supports the Zionist entity, be sure that we will defeat it. This land is ours, and our resistance and revolution have been going on for more than a century, and we will continue until victory.”

The document shows no mention of the French protesting the clear statements of Hamas’s intent to destroy Israel.

The revelation comes as Macron announced his intention to recognize a Palestinian state, posting to social media on July 24: “I will make the solemn announcement at the United Nations General Assembly in September.’’

In response to the Channel 12 report, a French diplomat denied the document’s contents. “These baseless accusations are apparently intended to undermine the legitimacy of our efforts toward a two-state political solution,” the diplomat said.

“Hamas is a terrorist organization that has carried out the worst antisemitic massacre of the 21st century. France will continue to work to permanently disarm it and exclude it from any political ‘day after,’ in Gaza and beyond,” the diplomat added.

Pilot Who Ejected Jewish Kids For Singing In Hebrew Trained Two 9/11 Hijackers

 


The antisemitic scandal surrounding Vueling Airlines has taken a mindboggling twist as it has been revealed that Iván Chirivella, a pilot who trained two of the 9/11 hijackers, was the captain who ordered the removal of 50 Jewish children from a flight between Valencia and Paris.

Vueling Airlines confirmed Friday that Chirivella, a native of the Canary Islands and a senior flight instructor at an independent aviation school, was in command during the incident. Chirivella was the flight instructor for at least two of the terrorists behind the September 11 attacks – ringleader Mohamed Atta and Marwan Al Shehhi – at Jones Aviation in Florida in 2000.

Despite this alarming history, Vueling promoted Chirivella to a senior training role, placing him not only in the cockpit but in charge of mentoring other pilots.
