Israel Needed Arafat
By the time you read this article, Arafat will have died, and many will say good riddance.
A Planeload Of Joy
We in Israel need Nefesh B'Nefesh. Every time this organization brings in another planeload of olim, the welcome is so uplifting, the arrival is so exciting, the emotional high is so stimulating, that several old-timers go to the airport ceremonies just to be reminded how important American and Canadian aliyah is.
Human Chain
Two events that seemed to fit the days before Tisha B'Av happened recently.
Is It My Turn To Capitulate Yet?
I live in a settlement. I wonder when my turn to be expelled will come. The Israeli government encouraged me to move here.
Disengagement From Reality
As we see from the reactions of many of the Israeli government ministers, Arik Sharon negotiated with himself and decided that his plan for disengagement was a reasonable plan.
Demonstration In Favor Of Erecting The Security Fence
Hundreds of residents of Hashmonaim and the surrounding areas demonstrated against the intention of the Israel Defense Forces to capitulate to the Israeli leftist groups and the local Arabs.
A Million Dollar Dedication
The Yishuv community of Hashmonaim and Yeshivat Bnei Akiva "Ner Tamid" recently celebrated a beautiful Chanukat Habayit dedication of a million-dollar Beit Midrash.

Chaverim came from every city, town, religious Kibbutz and settlement in Israel.

In Israel, when a politician wants to label the start of a process, he often uses the concept ". . . first!"

In an attempt to undermine the Israeli government, a group of failed Leftist politicians are

Bnei Akiva Reunion
Bnei Akiva of North America (and Hashomer Hadati) will be 70 years young this year.
It Is Time!
Each day we read and hear about new atrocities carried out by Arab terrorists and we find that our reactions have become numbed.
Souls Intertwined
As a Tehilla volunteer I have been going to the airport for many years to assist new immigrants (olim) during their first hours facing real Israeli bureaucracy.
The Israel Association Of Baseball
