    Inspiration from Zion: Freedom of the Jews

    It is the shackles of the mind that are truly preventing freedom. No matter what Jews of diaspora mentality (or the world powers) say, we will not willingly join them in their bondage but our hands are outstretched to pull them into freedom.

    As Ilhan Omar Shows, Not Everyone is Jackie Robinson

    Fellow Democrats have tried to rush to her defense that she's relatively new at politics. It is worth reminding them that so was Donald Trump,

    Ari Fuld on the Holidays | Passover: Freedom vs. Responsibility – 5778 (2018)

    Ari Fuld discusses: What are we celebrating on Passover and what are the lessons to be learned?

    Israel LOVES its Army

    One might wonder if there is any other country in the world that relates to its soldiers like Israel does. I certainly don’t know of any. Our enemies see it as a weakness to be exploited, and do so whenever they can. But it is also a strength, a motivation the leads Israeli young people to volunteer to take risks, knowing that they are not alone. The nation stands behind them.

    “Everyone Knows” … but EVERYONE is Wrong

    PM Netanyahu’s promise to extend Israeli sovereignty to the settlements – and not, by the way, “to annex the West Bank” as so many headlines have it – has re-ignited debate about these issues. But nothing’s changed. Here are some popular but false statements about Judea/Samaria and the Jewish communities that have been established there:

    What the Palestinians Were Thinking While Israelis Were Voting

    {Originally posted to the FirstOne Through website} While the Israelis went to the polls again to elect their government in a democratic process, the Palestinian...

    Intersectionality and the Jews

    Jews choose life. We choose building a thriving, happy future. THAT is our identity. Others choose victimhood, anger and stewing in past offenses against them. These two positions are diametrically opposed. THAT is why we can never take part in the intersectionality equation, no matter how “nuanced” it is.

    Political Parties To Outnumber Voters By Next Election

    The pace of party registration with the Board of Elections has jumped ahead of the birth rate, such that if both rates continue their current trends, parties will outnumber Israeli voters by the first half of 2023.

    My Decision – My Vote in Israel’s Elections Tomorrow

    May the God of Israel find favor in our new leaders and bless them with wisdom.

    Zachary Baumel Has Returned Home to Israel

    Gantz said, "I prefer to endanger my troops rather than the lives of enemy civilians. That is the moral choice" This insanity must change and I believe it will. The days of the Gantz' and the very non-Jewish thinking elites are numbered.

    Does Moroccan King Mohammed VI Realize he Affirmed Jews’ Rights to Worship on the...

    this statement includes an assertion that every member of the three major monotheistic faiths should have full access to their holy spaces in order to worship there. Which means that Jews have the full right not just to visit but even to pray at the Temple Mount, the holiest spot in Judaism.

    The Nation-State Law Under Attack

    So what are these national rights guaranteed by the new law? Some are “only” symbolic, like the flag, the national anthem, the symbol of the state, holidays, and so on. But some are supremely practical and a matter of life and death: the Law of Return for Jews and the commitment to encourage the ingathering of exiles, Jews from around the world. These rights are what make it possible for Israel to be a place of refuge for persecuted Jews everywhere

    What to do about Gaza?

    What are Iran and Hamas thinking, and what do we do now?

    The Islamic Hate That Killed a Little Jewish Girl Still Haunts France

    To understand the origins of Rep. Omar or Rep. Tlaib’s anti-Semitism, look to the Merah family.

    The Cognitive War

    Reporting on the fighting as if it is a traditional war plays into the hands of Hamas, since controlling the news cycle is not peripheral but essential in cognitive war. While the West may just be waking up to the importance of cognitive warfare, Israel has been fighting it for a long time

    Jews Reclaim Har HaZeitim From Arab Vandals

    Rabbi Horowitz told The Jewish Press, “When we first began to promote Hevron as one of our national treasures, the majority of Israelis, as well as tourists, were afraid to travel so deeply into what was called, the ‘Wild West Bank.’

    Liberals And The MSM Are Telling New Lies About AIPAC And Their Conference

    Like most pro-Israel or pro-Jewish organizations in AIPAC leans towards progressivism. Progressives including AIPAC try to ensure that all results are equal even if it means diluting the good for a mediocre middle. That’s why the liberals and their friends in the MSM who are saying AIPAC is trying to make Israel a partisan Issue are lying and may be hurting their progressive efforts.

    J Street Uncovers a Secret about Netanyahu and Trump

    J Street’s primary goal, like that of the numerous other anti-Israel organizations in the US, including the nominally “Jewish” If Not Now and Jewish Voice for Peace, as well as explicitly antisemitic ones like If America Knew, is to create antipathy and distrust for Israel, so that Americans will oppose pro-Israel actions by the US government – for example, the recognition of Israel’s possession of the Golan Heights

    Israel Has Much Higher Claims to The West Bank Than Golan Heights

    While there was certainly some benefit politically to Netanyahu for the gesture, the rationale for Israel’s control of the plateau is definitely about security. But the arguments applied to the Golan are relatively weak compared to all of the reasons Israel should have sovereignty over the “West Bank.”

    Trump’s Golan Heights Decision: It’s All About Iran Stupid!

    With Iranian forces having free reign in Syria, Israeli sovereignty over the Golan is critical for her basic security and to protect American interests from being destroyed by Iran.

    Anti-Israel Lobbyists Dwarf Pro-Israel Lobbyists

    As AIPAC kicks off its 2019 conference in Washington, D.C., it is worth reviewing some basic statistics about this pro-Israel lobbying group.

    Gaza Solution

    Bring back the brave, productive Jewish residents to Gaza and encourage others to join them in making this part of our land great again - and forever Israel.

    Trumping the Golan

    By recognizing Israeli sovereignty in the Golan Heights, President Trump struck a blow against the idiotic principle of “land for peace”

    The Israeli Spy Who Made Trump’s Golan Heights Announcement Possible

    If it weren’t for Eli Cohen, most probably President Trump would not have been able to recognize Israel’s sovereignty over the Golan Heights, because that sovereignty might not exist.

    Does Ofer Cassif belong in the Knesset?

    Our legal system, and especially the Supreme Court, applies a double standard to Jews and Arabs. Precisely as is forbidden in the Torah, our judges lean toward those that they (wrongly) believe to be oppressed.

    Bibi and Rotem

    Israel has never been a “state of all its citizens” as Sela, who is supposed to be well-educated, asserted. Like Japan and numerous other countries, but unlike the US, Israel is a nation-state, a state in which – or by which – a particular people or culture expresses its right of self-determination.

    Remembering Yehoshua Friedberg HY’D ZT’L

    In 1993, Yehoshua Friedberg HY'D was murdered by terrorists. Every year, on Taanit Purim, is the Aliya l'Kever. This will be the first Azkara without Ari Fuld.

    Democrats and the anti-Semitism Trap

    Is it any wonder that the Democrats don’t want to talk about anti-Semitism? But that’s a mistake because grappling with anti-Semitism would allow them to understand why their policies don’t work.
