In a stunning shift in its Gaza strategy, Israel is reportedly preparing to take control of 70–75% of the Gaza Strip by the end of its ongoing military campaign, Operation Gideon’s Chariots, according to a senior Israeli defense official.
REMEMBERING SARAH MILGRIM: American Israeli Embassy Diplomat & Peace Activist Gunned Down in D.C. Terror Attack*
Sarah Milgrim, a devoted Jewish American staff member at the Israeli Embassy in Washington, D.C., was one of two young victims murdered in a chilling terror attack outside the Capital Jewish Museum on Tuesday evening.
The attack has stunned the diplomatic and Jewish communities, taking the lives of two promising individuals who had dedicated themselves to building understanding and peace.
A letter from a wife whose husband is on the front!
It’s hard to describe just what my husband’s return home has done for us. The last time he came home he wasn’t his usual self. He was filled with anguish and rage; he was affected by everything he’d endured. But this time it’s so different. He’s the man I remembered. Loving, tender, smiling, full of life and energy, and warmth.

National Unity Party MK Benny Gantz met privately with the Skverer Rebbe in New Square, New York, on Tuesday night, according to people familiar with the situation who asked not to be named.
The 40-minute meeting took place in the Rebbe’s home with Gantz entering through a back entrance. Sources within the Skverer community said the meeting was held at the request of the Hassidic court. No official photos or records were permitted, and the content of the discussion remains undisclosed.
In addition to his meeting with the Rebbe, Gantz met with senior members of the Skverer court and learned about the community’s educational and social initiatives, which blend Torah study with gainful employment.
He apparently wasn't told that Skver has a campaign to keep the neighboring community Judenrein, and that Skver has a policy to buy homes to stuff them with illegals to make their frum neighbors' lives unbearable!
Note:
New Square is the poorest town in New York with the highest welfare/food stamp use. The next highest is Kiryas Joel.
New Square is one of the poorest towns in the United States and has one of the highest rates in the entire country of welfare program use.
The amount of people taking food stamps is actually 77% compared to 13% of the US population. The New York and US taxpayers fund this lifestyle choice - and it is a choice - of poverty. Keeping them poor is quite expensive.
Jews killed on the streets of Washington DC
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi L. Noem announced that two staff members of the Israeli Embassy were fatally shot near the Capital Jewish Museum late Wednesday.
The incident took place during an event hosted by the American Jewish Committee (AJC). The suspected shooter was apprehended at the scene and is said to have shouted “Free Palestine” during his arrest.
Secretary Noem tweeted: “Two Israeli Embassy staff were senselessly killed tonight near the Jewish Museum in Washington, DC. We are actively investigating and working to get more information to share. Please pray for the families of the victims. We will bring this depraved perpetrator to justice.”
According to Ambassador Yechiel Leiter, the two were about to get engaged to be married. They were planning to get engaged next week in Jerusalem.
The attack occurred during a gathering for young diplomats at the Capital Jewish Museum. Witnesses said a man wearing a keffiyeh entered the venue shouting “Free Palestine” before opening fire. One victim was pronounced dead at the scene, while the other was transported to a local hospital in critical condition.
DC Police Chief Pamela Smith Pamela Smith identified the suspected shooter as Elias Rodriquez, age 30, from Chicago, Illinois.
Israeli Embassy spokeswoman Tal Naim stated: “Two embassy staff members were shot at close range while attending a Jewish event at the museum. We have full confidence in local and federal law enforcement to apprehend the shooter and to ensure the safety of Israeli representatives and the Jewish community across the United States.”
Danny Danon, Israel’s ambassador to the US, tweeted: “The fatal shooting that took place outside the event at the Jewish Museum in Washington, DC is a depraved act of antisemitic terrorism. Harming the Jewish community is crossing a red line. We are confident that the US authorities will take strong action against those responsible for this criminal act. Israel will continue to act resolutely to protect its citizens and representatives – everywhere in the world.”

Feiglin: “Every Gazan Child You Feed Will Slaughter Your Children In 15 Years”
Former Knesset member Moshe Feiglin on Tuesday responded harshly to Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu’s decision to allow humanitarian aid into Gaza.
Speaking in an interview with Channel 14, Feiglin said: “Ultimately, this aid is direct aid to the enemy – let’s stop lying to ourselves. Providing aid to the enemy while we send our soldiers to fight is a crime against IDF soldiers, no less than that.”
It should be noted that Feiglin’s grandson, Yair Levin, H’yd, was killed in Rafah last year.
“Every child in Gaza is the enemy. And I’ll tell you more than that. Every child, every baby in Gaza is the enemy. The enemy is not Hamas, and it’s not Hamas’s military wing, like the military prosecutor tells us— that we’re not allowed to harm Hamas unless they’re part of the military wing.”
“Every child in Gaza is the enemy. We need to conquer Gaza and settle it – and not one Gazan child should remain there. There’s no other victory.”
“We have a war with the Gazan terrorist entity that we established with our own hands in Oslo and the disengagement. Every child that you are now giving milk to, will rape your daughters and slaughter your children in 15 years.”
Regarding the fact that Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich justified the decision [due to international pressure], he said: “Suddenly everyone is aligning themselves according to political considerations. I’m sorry, but the lives of our soldiers are much more important to me than political considerations.”
Likud MK Moshe Saada expressed similar sentiments, telling Arutz Sheva that allowing aid into Gaza is unethical and a threat to Israeli soldiers.
“It is unacceptable that we send four divisions of soldiers to conquer Gaza and risk their lives while simultaneously giving Hamas the means to keep fighting,” he said. “Providing them with food is effectively giving them ammunition.”
When asked by Arutz Sheva about speculation that Netanyahu bowed to U.S. pressure, Saada responded: Trump said, ‘Open the gates of hell.’ Instead, by sustaining Hamas, we are opening the gates of paradise for them.”
The UN announced on Tuesday that it has received authorization from Israel to allow another 100 humanitarian aid trucks into Gaza.
Trump makes South African president squirm by playing 'white genocide' video montage during astonishing Oval Office moment
President Donald Trump put on a stunning shaming in the Oval Office Wednesday, showing clips to South African President Cyril Ramaphosa that purported to show evidence of a 'white genocide' in his country.
Musk stood amongst the reporters in the Oval Office when the dramatic showdown went down - similar to what met Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
Ramaphosa came Wednesday to soothe things - telling Trump at the top of their remarks that he brought him a golf book and had worked on his golf game.
He had champion golfers Ernie Els and Retief Goosen and luxury goods tycoon Johann Rupert tag along.
In turn, Trump humiliated Ramaphosa - asking aides to dim the lights in the Oval Office as he played a supercut of speeches from EFF leader Julius Malema, whose trademark song at rallies is 'Shoot the Boer, Shoot the farmer.'
Trump then pulled out a pile of news clippings, including a story from the Daily Mail from writer Sue Reid, about why white South Africans are fleeing violence and 'racist' laws.
The Mail's report detailed a white South African now farming in Arkansas and making better money because 'black empowerment' policies have put white job applicants at the back of the line.
These are articles over the last few days - a death of people, death, death, horrible death, death, death,' Trump said paging through a pile of news clippings and showing them off to the cameras. 'White South Africans are fleeing being of the violence and "racist" laws,' he continued, reading the Mail's headline.
'And I'll give these to you,' Trump told Ramaphosa. 'So when you say, "What would you like to do?" I don't know what to do for this - white South African couples say that they were attacked violently.'
'Look here's burial sites all over the place,' Trump continued.
The president had shown a clip of white crosses lining a roadway.
Ramaphosa was aghast, admitting that he didn't know where that was.
Trump appeared to have shown footage of the Witkruis Monument, which honors both white and black farmers who have died in attacks.
'When you look at the videos, I mean, how does it get worse? And these are people that are officials and they're saying "kill the white farmer and take their land,"' Trump said.
Malema's rally song was popularized during the anti-apartheid struggle but Afrikaner lobby groups have amounted it to hate speech and tried to get it banned.
That is not government policy. We have a multi-party democracy in South Africa that allows people to express themselves,' Ramaphosa tried to explain. 'And in many cases, or in some cases, those policies do not go along with government policy.'
'Our government policy is completely, completely against what he was saying, even in the parliament, and a small minority party, which is allowed to exist in terms of our Constitution,' Ramaphosa said.
Trump then charged: 'But you do allow them to take land.'
'They take the land, they kill the white farmer and when they kill the white farmer, nothing happens to them,' the American president continued.
Trump asked later: 'Why would you not arrest this man? That man said "kill the white farmers, kill the white farmers" and then he danced.'
Ramaphosa pushed back and said that violence in his country impacted people of all races - and actually affected black South Africans more.
'There is criminality in our country. People who do get killed, unfortunately, through criminal activity are not only white people, a majority of them are black people,' the South African leader said.
Increasing the dramatic scene was Trump's decision to periodically tear into NBC News' Peter Alexander.
Alexander had initially asked Trump why the U.S. was welcoming white South Africans but not Afghan and Venezuelan refugees.
'Well, this is a group, NBC, that is truly fake news,' Trump replied.
Trump really lost it on the veteran journalist when he asked about the Qatari plane being given to the Department of Defense directly after Trump rolled the video clips showing 'white genocide' in South Africa.
'There are all white farmers being buried and he asks about a jet that was given. You outta be ashamed of yourself. You are so bad, you're such a bad reporter,' Trump chided.
The news had broken earlier Wednesday that the Pentagon had officially accepted the luxury Boeing jet from the Qataris to be turned into a temporary Air Force One.
'"So why did they gave us a plane to the United States Air Force?" that's what that idiot talks about after viewing a thing where thousands of people are dead,' Trump said.
Ramaphosa used the moment as an opportunity.
'I'm sorry I don't have a plane to give you,' the South African leader joked.
'I wish you did,' Trump answered. 'If your country offered the United States Air Force a plane I would take it.'
When it was Rupert's turn to speak he noted, 'It's not only white farmers, it's across the board.'
Looking at Musk he continued.
'We need technological help. We need Starlink at every little police station. We need drones. I actually got drones donated for the peace parks to stop elephant and rhino poaching and his predecessor stopped the importation because he said the United States would spy on us,' Rupert continued.
Turning to Trump the prominent businessman said, 'Remember, sir, you and I lived in New York in the 70s. We never thought New York would be what it became.'
'We need your help to stop this awful killing but it's across the board,' Rupert said.
Elie Schwartz Gets 6.5 to 8 Years in Fraud Case, Ordered to Pay Victims $45 Million
Elchonon (Elie) Schwartz, 46, head of a New York City-based commercial real estate investment firm, pleaded guilty in February to a single count of wire fraud tied to the Atlanta Financial Center in Buckhead. Schwartz persuaded over 800 investors to contribute a total of $62.8 million, including $54 million intended for the purchase of a major office building. Instead of using the funds as promised, he diverted them to finance his personal luxury purchases. On Tuesday, he was sentenced to 87 months in prison and ordered to pay $45 million in restitution.
Among the victims were doctors, nurses, retirees, and small business owners, many of whom invested between $25,000 and $250,000. One of them, a factory owner from Chicago who invested $250,000, expressed his frustration: “I feel like he’s too rich and too well-connected to really be punished. He’ll get out of this and go back to his old ways.”
Federal prosecutors recommended a prison term of 6.5 to 8 years—a reduced sentence due to Schwartz’s lack of a prior criminal record and his cooperation with the authorities. However, many victims have expressed anger over what they consider a lenient punishment. Several reported devastating consequences, including losing their retirement savings, being evicted from their homes, and taking out student loans to cover their children’s education.
“I only got $3,500 out of the $25,000 I invested,” said one of Schwartz’s victims, adding, “But I would give that up just to see him sit for 20 years.”
Theodore S. Hertzberg, interim U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Georgia, addressed the court, stating, “Schwartz’s greed was boundless. He callously abused the trust of hundreds of investors to line his own bank accounts.”
Hertzberg continued, “Schwartz’s sentence reflects our office’s commitment to hold fraudsters accountable for exploiting investors who innocently rely on their false representations.”
Schwartz created a crowdfunding platform called CrowdStreet Marketplace, through which he raised nearly $63 million—$54 million earmarked for the Atlanta Financial Center and $9 million for a mixed-use property in Miami Beach. He assured investors that their funds would be held in segregated bank accounts, would not be commingled, and would be used solely for the intended property investments.
He then diverted the funds into his personal bank account and used them for unrelated commercial real estate ventures under his control. He spent the money on luxury watches, stock and options trades in a personal brokerage account, and payroll expenses for other businesses unconnected to the promised investments.

Lacking Charedi manpower, IDF turns to womanpower: 1 in 5 fighters are now female
Female combatants of the Paratroops mobility unit in the Gaza Strip during the October 7 war with a stray dog
One in five Israeli combat soldiers is female, a senior officer said in a recent Knesset hearing, underlining a major uptick in women serving in fighting roles.
“Today, women make up 20.9% of the IDF’s combat force – this is an unprecedented figure. We’re also seeing an increase in the technological units, but the main surge is in women serving as combat soldiers,” Brig. Gen. Shay Tayeb, head of the Personnel Directorate’s Planning and Personnel Management Division, said on May 7 while presenting official data to Knesset members in a discussion focused on female combat soldiers in the context of the need for an equitable conscription law for ultra-Orthodox men.
However, as women increasingly enlist in light infantry battalions, elite combat units, and other units that may put them on the frontlines, the army may struggle to address the dual challenge of integrating them alongside a hoped-for influx of ultra-Orthodox soldiers, policy planners warned.
Out of 18,915 Haredim who received initial draft orders since July 2024, around 319 have enlisted; 2,521 who ignored multiple draft orders were sent immediate call-up orders requiring them to show up at an induction center within 48 hours or be declared a draft evader.
In direct opposition to Haredi men evading the draft, Maj. Sapir Barabi, head of the Sources Department at the IDF Personnel Directorate, noted that between 2012 and 2024 – based on recruitment yearbook data – the number of female combat soldiers rose tenfold.
The Entire World Has Collaborated This Past Week to Try To Stop Israel From Destroying Hamas
France, Britain and Canada are suddenly talking openly about recognizing a Palestinian state. And within Israel itself, precisely in the critical days of fighting against Hamas, Yair Golan chooses to compare IDF soldiers to baby killers. This is no longer accidental, it is planned. What is happening here is an international attempt to stop Israel at the very moment it is advancing militarily, morally, security-wise, and politically. After years of rockets, attacks, kidnappings, and unimaginable cruelty on the part of Hamas, the State of Israel is finally fighting to eradicate evil from the root. No more "conflict management," no more "temporary calm," but a decisive end. And that is exactly what scares everyone. The world is used to a weak Israel. To an Israel that apologizes. To an Israel that extends a hand even when the other is cut off. They know: A strong Israel is a completely different story. A strong Israel is a center of influence, of technology, of security, of stability in a raging Middle East. And that is threatening. It undermines the old order. It throws off balance those who built on the Jews continuing to be the persecuted party. Make no mistake, this is not just anti-Zionism. This is good old anti-Semitism, wrapped in new language. Because when Jews are murdered, the world is silent. And when Jews fight for their lives, the world screams. But we will not break. We will not surrender. We will not apologize for protecting our children. We will not stand trial for preserving our existence. The people of Israel understand well what is at stake. And in this pressure, as always, we will grow and become stronger. Because history has proven that when Jews stand their ground, the world becomes confused. And when they win, the world goes into hysteria. We will move forward. Not to please the world, but to secure the future of our children.

Yeshivishe Oilam Finally Sees That their System is "Not Sustainable" and is "Collapsing"
DIN: I have been screaming on this blog for years that the Yeshivishe System is no longer feasible and is in fact collapsing! Our OTD problem is in fact, a direct result of this system!
Finally, I see that parents have had it and are now coming out and stating the obvious! The entire system is built on "schnorrerei" living off other people and Government grants! It is no wonder that so many Chareidim are incarcerated because of the financial pressure the community places on them!
Here are two long letters that were sent to other bloggers as well, that spell out the pain that these families have to go through to fit in! We can not count on the "gedoilim" to change anything; they are unfortunately totally disconnected, and it is not in their interests to have anything change! So this revolution is quick in coming and is coming from the bottom up!
US Deliberately Leaking Israeli Plans to Strike Iran ... to Sabotage it!
The United States has obtained new intelligence indicating that Israel is actively preparing for a possible military strike on Iranian nuclear facilities — a dramatic development that could upend President Donald Trump’s high-stakes diplomatic outreach to Tehran and spark a wider conflict across the Middle East, according to a report from CNN citing multiple American officials briefed on the matter.
While officials say that Israeli leaders have not made a final decision, the likelihood of a unilateral strike has “significantly increased in recent months,” one source familiar with the intelligence told CNN.
Behind the scenes, Israeli military movements, the repositioning of air munitions, and a recent air force drill have caught the attention of American intelligence agencies. Coupled with intercepted Israeli communications, these developments are being interpreted as possible signs of imminent military action — or, at the very least, a deliberate signal to Iran and the U.S. of what could come next.
Such a move would not only be a bold defiance of Trump’s diplomatic approach, but could ignite a broader regional war — something the Trump administration has worked to avoid since the Gaza conflict reignited Middle East tensions in 2023.
