Palestinians from Gaza Enter U.S. Under Trump Administration Despite Official Ban

 

In a development raising serious national security questions, video footage shows Palestinians—claiming to be refugees from Gaza—arriving in the United States this month through San Francisco and Houston, Texas. Their travel was reportedly facilitated by an organization called “Heal Palestine”, despite the Trump administration’s stated policy against accepting Palestinian refugees.

The videos—obtained by Loomer Unleashed—depict Palestinian families disembarking from flights, some waving Palestinian flags, chanting pro-Hamas slogans, and even performing the “Hamas terror whistle” inside Houston’s George Bush Intercontinental Airport. Another clip shows arrivals at San Francisco International Airport on August 6, 2025, via a Qatar Airways flight.

This has ignited a firestorm of questions:

• How did individuals from a Hamas-controlled territory obtain U.S. visas?

• Did the State Department under Marco Rubio’s leadership approve this?

• Which officials signed off on visas for people from a recognized terror hot zone?

• Why are governors Gavin Newsom and Greg Abbott allowing Palestinian arrivals in California and Texas?

Critics point out that 95% of Gazans voted for Hamas in the last election, accusing U.S. officials of enabling a security breach by permitting entry from a region synonymous with terrorism.

In less than a week: Second unvaccinated toddler dies of measles

 

The Ministry of Health on Saturday announced that a second toddler has died of measles. The child, a boy aged 1.5 years, from Beit Shemesh contracted measles and was admitted to the emergency department at a Jerusalem hospital after several days of illness at home. He had not received the measles vaccine, as part of the routine immunization schedule.

At the hospital, staff worked to revive the infant, who was evacuated while undergoing CPR. However, they were unsuccessful and were forced to declare his death.

The Ministry noted that earlier this week another unvaccinated toddler died from measles complications after being connected to an ECMO machine for several weeks.

Since the outbreak began in Israel about in April, as of Thursday, August 14, 2025, a total of 526 measles cases have been diagnosed, with 209 currently active. However, the disproportionate percentage of hospitalized patients indicates a much wider outbreak than reported: as a rule, developed countries see nine hospitalizations and one death per 1,000 measles cases.

Most of the recent cases have been recorded in the Jerusalem and Beit Shemesh areas, with the practically all of hospitalized patients being unvaccinated children.

As of Thursday, 19 children remain hospitalized, all under the age of six. Two are in intensive care, one of whom is still on ECMO. On Wednesday, an unvaccinated two-year-old died of measles, despite extensive efforts to save his life.

Measles is a highly contagious viral illness characterized by fever, general malaise, runny nose, and rash, and can cause severe and life-threatening complications.

The routine vaccination schedule recommended by the Health Ministry includes two doses: one at age one and another in first grade. Due to the outbreak, the Ministry has instructed that the second dose be given earlier in high-infection areas. To further protect infants in outbreak areas (Jerusalem, Beit Shemesh, and Bnei Brak), an additional, early, dose is recommended for babies aged 6-12 months.

The Health Ministry urged: "If you feel unwell, avoid attending crowded events. In case of need, coordinate your arrival at a clinic or emergency room and inform the medical staff. Vaccination saves lives."

Appointments for measles vaccines can be made through the Health Ministry's hotline, *5400 or through your health fund.

Chardedie Rabbis Join NK Massive Hafganos Outside Beit Lid Prison Comparing the "well fed" Draft Dodgers to the hostages!

 

Outside they displayed the photos of the Well Fed draft dodgers on yellow chairs, comparing this to the hostage situation. 

What chutzpah!! 

Why haven't any of those who participated in this fiasco, ever make a Hafgana in support of the hostages? To show unity and Achdus!

You can be sure if even one hostage was from Bnei-Brak they would have been there in a heartbeat! 

Is it any wonder the Moshiach refuses to come?

Thousands of Bnei Torah converged Thursday night outside the Beit Lid military prison, protesting the continued imprisonment of yeshiva bochurim who refused to bow to the government’s renewed draft decrees.

DIN: It seems that all their Torah is not helping, they now have to shut their gemarras and go to Hafaganas! 

The demonstration, called for and attended by HaRav Dov Landau shlit”a, came at the climax of a week of demonstrations against the army’s escalating campaign to drag bochurim away from the daled amos shel halacha and into the barracks. Rav Landau had personally visited two of the imprisoned bochurim last week, telling them, “The entire olam haTorah stands behind you. Be strong, and hold firm.”

DIN: This is a lie, no one is being dragged out, they are being arrested for nor registering for the draft! 

"daled amos shel halacha?" Don't make me laugh! We are all learning, and even the well-fed draft dodgers are learning in prison! And don't they bark" We will die and won't enlist?" Then what's so bad of being in prison?

Groups from Peleg Yerushalmi, Slonim chassidim, and other kehillos broke through police barricades before being pushed back by riot units. Some burned and tore up draft orders, while others sang and danced while shouting cries of “Gevalt!” and “We won’t give up even one bochur!”

Banners and shouts from the crowd made clear the protest’s purpose: “No quotas, no sanctions!” and “Free the hostages!” — a reference not to captives in Gaza, but to the imprisoned bochurim.

DIN: "Free the hostages" those well-fed draft dodgers are "hostages?" how perverted is this? 

So mainstream charediem are now joining Peleg which is really the Neturei Karta in suits! 

Which I was saying for years on this blog, that they are really all one! 

Some protesters even appealed to President Trump to “save us from the State of Israel” and its draft decrees.

DIN: So now the RBS"O and all the Torah that they learned can't save them, but the goy will!

The protest comes after the IDF issued 54,000 draft notices in July alone, following a High Court ruling striking down long-standing deferments for lomdei Torah. Around 80,000 bochurim between 18 and 24 are officially “draft-eligible,” but gedolim warn that any form of enlistment is a spiritual gezeirah that would uproot their way of life.

DIN: A "gezeirah?????" How sick is this, who believes this crap? 

Everyone who wants to learn, can learn! Walk in any Beis Medrish and everyone is learning, I don't see the Government cracking down on learning! This is a blood libel on the government and no one is buying it! 

"uproot their way of life.?" They can now join Hesder and there are two brand new Charedie battalians that have no women and meals are strictly kosher!

MK Moshe Gafni declared earlier in the day that the campaign “is reminiscent of the Romans who sought to prevent Am Yisroel from learning Torah. We will fight with all our strength.”

DIN: Moshe Gafni is a liar from when he was still in his mother's stomach! No One is preventing "Am Yisrael" from learning Torah, this is an unmitigated lie, and to compare this to the Romans, shows you that he is not a serious guy at all, he is a sick deranged meshiginar! 

 MK Meir Porush warned that the situation could deteriorate into a “civil war” if the government pushes forward without protecting the Torah world.

DIN: Meir Porush is an opportunist and comes from a family that made all their money from the Zionist Israeli Government, he is a clown with a beard!  

So let me ask Mr Porush, how will you fight in a civil war? How about training Charediem in the IDF. 

Local residents complained of nightly marches, shofar blasts, and shouting in the streets. By 10:30 p.m., as the first crowd dispersed, new groups — including more Slonim chassidim — arrived, reigniting confrontations with police into the late hours.

The government insists it needs 12,000 more soldiers immediately, citing the ongoing war in Gaza and security challenges.

‘New York Times’ Erases One of the Ancient Jewish Temples in Jerusalem

This is why it is vital to support those going up to Har Habyit, even if you are personally against it! 

 A controversial article in The New York Times, which discusses the artistic pursuits of a terrorist freed from Israeli prison, appears to deny one of the ancient Jewish temples in Jerusalem.

The article about convicted terrorist Zakaria Zubeidi notes “a provocative visit by an Israeli leader, accompanied by hundreds of police officers, to a major mosque complex in Jerusalem that is built on the site of an ancient Jewish temple.”

The Times doesn’t say why it was so provocative for Ariel Sharon to visit the most holy site for Jews in 2000. An article about that visit, to which the paper links in the new piece, states that “the complex, known to Muslims as Haram al Sharif, or the Noble Sanctuary, contains Al Aqsa Mosque and the Dome of the Rock, sacred shrines of Islam. It is revered by Jews as the site of the First and Second Temples as well as the place where Abraham was prepared to sacrifice his son, Isaac.”

JNS sought comment from the Times about whether the new article reflects the paper’s editorial view that only the first Jewish Temple or only the second Jewish Temple stood on the site in Jerusalem.

The Associated Press style guide, which many journalists see as the discipline’s “bible,” notes in its entry for the “Temple Mount” that the site is “the walled, elevated area in Jerusalem’s Old City that was the site of the ancient Jewish temples.”

A 2005 Times article stated that “Jews believe that the site, also known as the Temple Mount, housed the second temple, which was destroyed by the Romans in A.D. 70.” The Washington Post reported in a 2023 article that “in Jewish tradition, the Temple Mount is the site where the First and Second Temples once stood,” appearing to equate that Jewish view with Muslim’s belief that the site is “the place where the prophet Muhammad ascended to heaven.”

“There is zero debate that two temples stood in that place in scholarly literature. Mohammed’s ascent ‘happens’ from there only because it is the Temple site,” Lawrence Schiffman, professor of Hebrew and Judaic studies at New York University, told JNS in 2023.

“The story about Muhammad going on a miraculous horse all the way from Arabia to Jerusalem and ascending to heaven is a religious belief. It’s like saying that Jacob prayed there,” Schiffman told JNS. “They are trying to be neutral, but that confuses the facts.”

At the time, Steven Fine, professor of Jewish history at Yeshiva University and director of its Center for Israel Studies, and a founding editor of the Jewish art and visual culture journal Images, told JNS that “it is an historical fact that the Jewish temples were built on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem.”

“Archaeological evidence for the Temple rebuilt after the return from the Babylonian captivity and continuing until 66 C.E. is not contested,” he said. There is scarce archaeological evidence of the First Temple, since the site was rebuilt in subsequent centuries, “and also because Muslim authorities do not allow scientific excavation of the site,” Fine told JNS in 2023.

“Literary sources, however, are ample,” he said at the time. “No historian doubts the presence of an Israelite Temple on Mount Zion in biblical times.”

HonestReporting, a nonprofit watchdog, stated of the new Times article that “there is a double standard in how much of the media treats terrorism—one set of rules for most perpetrators, another for those who are Palestinian and whose victims are Israeli Jews.”

“Time and again, some of the most brutal attacks on civilians are presented with a kind of reverence, as though sadistic violence were simply part of a noble struggle,” the nonprofit stated. “When Israeli Jews are murdered in their homes or on their way to work, the narrative bends toward portraying the killer as a ‘resister of occupation.’”

The Times profile of “convicted murderer Zakaria Zubeidi is a textbook example,” HonestReporting stated. “Zubeidi, a veteran commander of the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades with decades of terrorist activity to his name, was freed in a hostage-for-prisoners swap with Hamas, having been jailed for his role in two West Bank shooting attacks in 2018 and 2019.”

Israel alarmed: intel points to China aiding Iran’s missile rebuild; nuclear repairs on hold

Western intelligence indicates Iran is prioritizing a rapid restoration of its ground-to-ground missile force after the June war, with possible Chinese assistance—a prospect Israel calls “very troubling.” 

Jerusalem says it has delivered “clear messages” to Beijing; 

China has not confirmed any role. 

The analysis suggests Tehran is first replenishing air defenses and ballistic capabilities to secure a direct, sovereign deterrent—especially after Hezbollah’s limited posture—while nuclear-site repairs are, for now, secondary. 

Russian help is uncertain, and European services reportedly see deepening Iran–China coordination on missiles—potentially a strategic shift that could reset regional deterrence.

The Secret Behind the Survival of the Jewish People

 

UJA’s $1 Million Betrayal: Feeding the Enemy While Starving the Truth

 

It is difficult to find the words to describe the breathtaking moral inversion on display at the UJA-Federation of New York. This week, under the leadership of CEO Eric Goldstein, UJA proudly announced it was allocating $1 million to Gaza for “relief efforts.” In their own press release, they boasted that this money — funneled through IsraAID — would provide food, medicine, and water filtration systems “for displaced families” in Gaza.

They described it as a reflection of “the very best of Israel — and of us.”

No. It is the very worst of us.

US backs E1 housing plan linking Jerusalem and Maale Adumim Ignoring the EU!

 

The US Department of State stated on Thursday that the construction of Jewish houses in the area known as E1 between Jerusalem and Maaleh Adumim supports Israel's security and is in line with the administration's goals.

Asked project, which was officially announced in a ceremony earlier in the day, the State Department stated: "A stable West Bank keeps Israel secure and is in line with the Trump administration’s goal to achieve peace in the region.”

I24News analyst Amichai Stein noted that the is a "180-degree reversal compared to previous U.S. administrations’ statements, which warned against construction, ruled that it undermines the two-state idea, and more."

The plan, which connects Maaleh Adumim to Jerusalem and disrupts Arab territorial contiguity between Ramallah and Bethlehem, is viewed as a decisive move that buries the idea of a Palestinian state. From the perspective of the Palestinian Authority and the international community, this strategic area is considered essential for the establishment of a Palestinian state with its capital in eastern Jerusalem.

As part of the plan, the Tzipor Midbar neighborhood in Maaleh Adumim will receive an additional 3,515 housing units, bringing the total to 6,916 new units. This development is expected to double the city’s population, with approximately 35,000 new residents anticipated in the coming years.

Speaking to Arutz Sheva-Israel National News following the ceremony, Finance Minister and Minister in the Defense Ministry Bezalel Smotrich stated: "After 20 years of promises and diplomatic delays, and as we see the hypocrisy of the European nations, we understand how crazy it was to capitulate to them all these years."

New poll shows Likud leading with 23 seats, while the opposition bloc, even with Bennett and Eisenkot, remains short of a majority without Arab party support.

 A poll conducted by Lazar Research and published Friday in Ma'ariv shows that the Likud party continues to lead, while the opposition bloc struggles to secure the 61 Knesset seats required to form a coalition without relying on the Arab parties.

According to the survey, the current coalition bloc would win 50 seats—an increase of one seat compared to the previous poll. The opposition bloc, including newly proposed parties led by former Prime Minister Naftali Bennett and former IDF Chief of Staff Gadi Eisenkot, would receive 60 seats. The Arab parties are projected to gain 10 seats.

In a scenario where both Bennett and Eisenkot lead independent parties, Likud remains the largest with 23 seats.

Bennett's party would earn 21 seats, the Democrats, led by Yair Golan, would also receive 21, Eisenkot's list would secure nine, as would Shas and Yisrael Beytenu.

United Torah Judaism is projected to receive seven seats, Otzma Yehudit seven, Yesh Atid six, the United Arab List (Ra'am) five, Hadash-Ta'al five, Blue and White five, and the Religious Zionist Party four.

Many Chassidim Refuse Vaccinations for their Children ..Now Greatgrandson Of Jerusalem’s Satmar Dayan Dies Of Measles..Second Death in Family

 

The Israeli Ministry of Health has announced that a two-year-old boy, who had been hospitalized for several weeks and connected to an ECMO machine after contracting measles, has passed away today at Hadassah Ein Kerem Hospital.

The child, Binyamin Zurger z”l, was the great-grandson of Rabbi Moshe Ze’ev Zurger, a prominent dayan of the Satmar Hasidic community in Jerusalem and author of the “Vayashev Moshe” series. He was also the grandson of Rabbi Tzvi Aryeh Zurger, a rabbi in the Satmar community, and son of Rabbi Mordechai Yoel Zurger, son-in-law of Rabbi Yehoshua Asher Kahana, a rabbinical judge in the Badatz and rabbi of the Mishkenot HaRo’im community. The child was named Binyamin after the late Rebbe of Mishkenot HaRo’im.

This is the second tragedy for the family, as about a year ago they lost another child due to a fatal bacterial infection.

Just a week ago, the family added the name Alter to the child, a traditional act as a merit for healing, and the mezuzahs in their home were found to be invalid and replaced. Tragically, the toddler passed away early this morning.

A small funeral took place in the afternoon, from the Shamgar funeral home to the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem, where he was laid to rest.

Since the beginning of the measles outbreak in Israel three months ago, 503 cases have been confirmed, with 187 currently active. The majority of recent cases have come from the Jerusalem and Beit Shemesh areas, and most of the hospitalized patients are unvaccinated children.

As of now, 12 children are hospitalized, all under the age of six. Three are in intensive care, one of whom is on ECMO. All hospitalized children are unvaccinated, with two cases still under investigation. 81% of all patients are children, most of whom were not vaccinated.

The Ministry of Health urges parents to ensure their children receive routine vaccinations, especially against measles. Vaccination status can be checked via the digital vaccination record on the Israeli government personal portal.

Hadassah Ein Kerem Hospital issued the following statement:

“The child, who was transferred to Hadassah’s Pediatric Intensive Care Unit several weeks ago in critical condition from Shaare Zedek while connected to an ECMO machine, was not vaccinated and had contracted measles. This led to a secondary streptococcal infection, causing severe pneumonia. He was treated for several weeks in the PICU, with doctors fighting for his life. Unfortunately, this morning his condition deteriorated, and the medical team had to declare his death due to multi-organ failure.”

Another child, a one-year-old girl, remains in critical condition in the same intensive care unit, still connected to an ECMO machine and being closely monitored.

Ben-Gvir Visits Barghouti in Jail talls him to his face : ‘Those Who Harm Our Children Will Face Full Consequences’

 

Israel’s National Security Minister, Itamar Ben-Gvir, visited Gannot Prison to inspect the conditions of security prisoners alongside Israel Prison Service Commissioner Kobi Yaakobi. While touring an isolation wing, Ben-Gvir encountered Marwan Barghouti — one of the most prominent Palestinian figures imprisoned in Israel.

Barghouti, a senior leader in Fatah’s Tanzim militia during the Second Intifada, is serving five consecutive life sentences plus 40 years for orchestrating multiple deadly attacks that claimed the lives of Israeli civilians. Considered by many Palestinians a political leader and by Israelis a mastermind of terror, Barghouti has remained an influential figure even behind bars.

Speaking directly to him, Ben-Gvir warned that anyone who murders Israeli civilians—especially children and women—will face overwhelming consequences, declaring that such acts will never break Israel’s resolve.

The tense exchange underscores Israel’s uncompromising stance toward terrorism and its ongoing focus on high-profile security prisoners.

He Who Laughs Last, Laughs Best

 

Anas al-Sharif, a Hamas operative and Al Jazeera journalist, was recently eliminated in an IDF strike. Just a few months ago, he publicly mocked a video by IDF Arabic Spokesman Avichay Adraee, who had urged him to report on the suffering in Gaza under Hamas rule — something he had deliberately avoided.

In the clip, Anas smiles and asks, “What does he want from me?” His friend quips that Avichay is “just giving him free publicity.” Anas adds, “Let him threaten, let him attack… we’ll continue, we’re not afraid.”

Reality, it turns out, was different:

1. Anas will not continue.

2. Avichay threatened — and eventually delivered.

3. Last April, Anas wrote a will. Perhaps something did set off a warning light after all.

Obama aides actually admit Russiagate was a smear campaign against Trump

That’s our story, and we’re sticking to it.”

It’s hard to believe that the Russiagate plotters are so stupid, but the declassified documents tumbling out of Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard’s files show that, while they had a lot of power and managed to hide their nefarious activities for almost a decade, President Barack Obama’s henchmen were none too bright.

The latest tranche of declassified emails has Obama’s DNI, James Clapper, telling then-Director of the National Security Agency Mike Rogers essentially to shut up and put his name to the intelligence community assessment (ICA) that Clapper and then-CIA Director John Brennan were cooking up, at Obama’s direction, to concoct a narrative that Russia had tilted the 2016 election to help Trump win.

“Understand your concern,” Clapper wrote to Rogers on Dec. 22, 2016, in the waning days of the Obama administration.

“It is essential that we (CIA/NSA/FBI/ODNI) be on the same page and are all supportive of the report — in the highest tradition of ‘that’s OUR story, and we’re sticking’ to it.’ ”

Rogers had kicked off the conversation by laying out his concerns that normal tradecraft was being compromised and that his team had not had “sufficient access to the underlying intelligence and sufficient time to review that intelligence.”

“I’m concerned that, given the expedited nature of this activity, my folks aren’t fully comfortable saying that they have had enough time to review all of the intelligence to be absolutely confident in their assessments,” Rogers wrote.

“I know that you agree that this is something we need to be 100% comfortable with before we present it to the President — we have one chance to get this right, and it is critical that we do so.

“In addition, if NSA is intended to be a co-author of this product, I personally expect to see even the most sensitive evidence related to the conclusion.”

But Clapper was unyielding.

“More time is not negotiable,” he replied, copying Brennan and then-FBI Director James Comey on the email.

“We may have to compromise on our ‘normal’ modalities, since we must do this on such a compressed schedule.”

“This is one project that has to be a team sport.”

Team sport.

What an unprofessional, idiotic thing to say, let alone write down for posterity.

The Charedi war that should never be fought

 

The words (in the Haredi weekly, Yated Ne’eman) landed like a thunderclap: the community is “at war.” Not a metaphor, not a figure of speech, but war. So the claim went. The State of Israel, we are told, has declared war on the haredim, and they must now respond in kind.

How will the war be fought? Various options have been raised. Protests and disruptions are one. Economic pressure is another, pulling Haredi capital from Israel. Even the idea of causing diplomatic damage has been floated via an international religious Jewish coalition.

But in war, things escalate and often spiral out of control. The enemy, we hear from one figure, is like the Nazis, or even worse. And as in ages past, others state, we will be victorious, just as we have been for 3,000 years. Vehi She’amda, proclaimed a rally notice: “Not just one has risen against us to destroy us, but the Holy One, Blessed be He, delivers us from their hands.”

The trouble is that war is not waged against abstract states. A war against a state is, in practice, a war on its citizens. And who are they? The people dwelling in Zion. The Jewish people. Meaning, this is a war of Haredim against the Jews.

The obvious question arises: The Haredim themselves are part of the Jewish people, so how can they go to war against the Jews? The answer, given by some quarters: “We are the true Jewish People, bearers of the Torah’s flame for 3,000 years; the others are not truly Jewish.” This is the bitter fruit of over-zealous isolation: a public ani ve’afsi od (“I and none but I.”)

Yet deep down, even those who say this know it isn’t true. We are all Jews. Even posh’ei Yisrael (“sinners of Israel”) are full of mitzvot. All the more so in a generation returning in strength and en masse to its roots.

A “Haredi war on Jews” is an oxymoron. You can’t turn your brothers into “Nazis,” Heaven forbid, or invoke Avraham’s covenant against them. Heaven help us if we are forced to choose between Haredim and Jews.

I’m reminded of the late Rabbi Yosef Chaim Sonnenfeld. After the murder of his aide, Jacob de Haan, he abandoned talks with King Abdullah of Jordan on an alternative to Zionism. Asked why, he replied simply: “I realized the people are not with us.”

An elite, even a Torah elite, leads the people; it does not wage war on them or their state. I don’t claim that responsibility lies solely with the Haredi leadership. Of course, mistakes are made on all sides. But we need to realize not only the limitations of our power, but even the basic moral constraints that restrain us.

This is why Rav Moshe Hillel Hirsch has avoided calling for protests and making empty declarations. He understands the damage such rhetoric can cause—damage that could take years to repair.

His responsible attitude calls for a return to the wisdom of our venerable sages, over multiple generations, who taught that “no one will enlist” only guarantees that yeshiva students will be drafted. Declaring war, even rhetorically, leads us inevitably down that path.

A clear, simple statement whereby those whose Torah study is not their sole calling must enlist, including many thousands of young Haredi men, would spare us this pointless “war” and begin to heal the rift between the Haredim and the Jews.

And the sooner, the better.

by Rabbi Yehoshua Pfeffer

A fair solution to the draft dodgers

I have developed what I think is a fair solution to Israel’s Haredi draft exemption problem. It does not involve locking up draft evaders or withholding government subsidies for Haredi educational institutions. Rather, it requires every Haredi and secular citizen of draft age to perform mandatory national service of their choice.

For example, after finishing basic training, a person could elect to continue in the army, Magen David Adom, KKL, the educational sector or any other type of national service agreed upon by the Knesset.

If someone refused to perform this obligatory service to the state, they would lose both their right to vote and their access to government financial support. These privileges could be regained if the person agreed to do national service. And there would be no age or time limit past which someone who had refused to perform national service would be permanently barred from regaining the right to vote or to secure government assistance.

This proposed system would also be applied to Israel’s Arab community which, with notable exceptions, would be barred from entering the army.

That the IDF is suffering from a major manpower crisis is not open to debate. But this shortfall in recruits is caused not only by large numbers of draft age Haredi and secular citizens refusing to serve, but also by the army’s dysfunctional organization, politically biased promotion system, and counterproductive military doctrine , which doesn’t emphasize achieving quick, decisive victories over our enemies.

I believe that my proposed draft law if coupled with a much needed comprehensive military reform program could provide Israel with sufficient troops to effectively defeat any future threat we may be faced with.

 

Lindsey Graham's Message that Anti-Zionist Chareidim Should Listen to “If You pull the plug on Israel, God will pull the plug on us.”

 Lindsay Graham's message was to Americans, but Hashem sends us messages sometimes in a weird way, and sometimes through a goy! Charedim who hate Israel should take notice of this message! If you keep pulling the plug on the State of Israel, the home to close to 8 million Jews, then will C"V pull the plug on you! 

If America pulls the plug on Israel, God will pull the plug on us.⁰

I’m not going to let that happen. pic.twitter.com/4pboBftQlO

— Lindsey Graham (@LindseyGrahamSC) August 13, 2025

 US Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) offered a forceful defense of Israel and its ongoing war against Hamas during a speech in his home state of South Carolina, rebuking critics of the Jewish state and warning of dire consequences should America abandon its closest ally in the Middle East.

“Israel is in a fight for their lives,” Graham declared. “Our friends in Israel are surrounded by people who would kill them all if they could.”

The senator’s remarks come amid growing international scrutiny of Israel’s military operations in Gaza and increasing calls from some quarters of the Republican Party to reassess US support. Graham, however, made clear that he sees no moral equivalence between Israel and its enemies.

“I am tired of the word genocide,” he said. “Let me tell you about genocide. If Israel wanted to commit genocide, they could. They have the capability to do that. They choose not to.”

Graham contrasted Israel’s restraint with Hamas’s intentions: “Hamas, they would commit genocide in 30 seconds. They just can't. And that's the big difference, folks.”

The senator also took aim at fellow Republicans who have wavered in their support for Israel, expressing frustration with what he sees as moral confusion within his own party.

“Israel is our friend. They're the most reliable friend we have in the Mideast. They're a democracy surrounded by people who would cut their throats if they could.”

Graham framed the issue as a moral imperative for Americans and Christians alike, invoking divine consequences for abandoning Israel.

“This is not a hard choice if you're an American. It's not a hard choice if you're a Christian,” he warned. “A word of warning. If America pulls the plug on Israel, God will pull the plug on us. And we're not going to let that happen.”

He concluded his speech with praise for President Donald Trump, crediting him with unwavering support for Israel during its most perilous moments.

“So I just want to end with this thought, that President Trump has stood with Israel at the most difficult time since its founding,” Graham said. “October the 7th was an effort to destroy the State of Israel, the largest loss of Jewish life since the Holocaust. And here we are almost two years later, and Israel's the bad guy. That's ridiculous. Israel is not the bad guy. They're the good guy. The bad guys are the radical Islamists who would kill everybody in this room if they could.”

“So I haven't lost my vision of right and wrong. When it comes to foreign policy, President Trump has stood up for all the right things, and he's stood up against wrong things. Just like Reagan.”

Hashem is Calling His Children Home!!! Zohran Mamdani Now at 82% Chance to Win NYC Mayoral Race

by Jabotinsky Einikel

This sweet Galut is drawing to the end. Sounds unreal and impossible? just remember what happened in Germany in the 1930s. Many of the Jews were financially successful, some had Government jobs and then it crashed.
Grandpa went all over Europe and tried to urge Jews to go HOME, his efforts were usually met with rotten tomato pelting.
Let’s not make the same mistake again. At least buy property in Israel, get your passports ready…..
And BTW there are plenty of relatively reasonable priced apartments in Yehuda, Shomron and the Golan, and you get an additional privilege of resettling Eretz Yisroel

Zohran Mamdani’s chances in the 2025 New York City mayoral election have surged, with cryptocurrency-based prediction market Polymarket giving him an 82% probability of winning the general election on November 4. Current Mayor Eric Adams remains far behind, with a probability under 1%.

Analysts note that Polymarket, which allows users to trade predictions on events using cryptocurrency, is increasingly viewed as a barometer for public sentiment. Mamdani’s strong showing in the betting market suggests significant momentum heading into the general election.

With less than three months until November, all eyes will be on Mamdani to see if the market predictions hold true on election day.

Locks changed, Attorney General left outside

 

The driver of Justice Minister Yariv Levin on Tuesday changed the lock on the office of Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara, preventing her from entering.

Levin’s office did not deny the incident, stating: “This claim is nothing short of absurd. The locks in the Minister’s Tel Aviv office were indeed changed. The office belongs to the Minister, not to Attorney Baharav-Miara.”

The statement added: “Her attempt to make unauthorized use of the Minister’s office is yet another example of puzzling behavior from someone already dismissed from her position.”

Opposition leader Yair Lapid sharply criticized the act: “While hostages are dying in Gaza and the IDF is fighting for our lives, the Justice Minister is acting like a common criminal, violating clear court rulings. At Israel’s most difficult hour, we have a government of draft-dodgers, corrupt individuals, and lawbreakers.”

While the office in question is officially under the jurisdiction of the Justice Minister, it has for years served as a satellite workspace for the Attorney General.
