This ⬆️ btw, is entirely true.

Right before the rockets started flying this apocalyptic sandstorm came completely unexpectedly, unusual for the time, with intense winds and sand flying everywhere - orange sky and thick dark air.
The rockets hit, you could hear them make contact and I thought to myself thank G-d few would be out in this weather.
And then I forgot about it.

Here is to living in gratitude. Here is to living the realized potential of a sovereign people in this land of milk and honey with a leadership that guides itself by G-d.

Here’s to being worthy of G-d’s miracles even when we’re not worthy.

Honoring 76 years of striving.
May the now and the future be good.

Yes, you should vote now for Eden Golan in tonight’s Eurovision contest.
Whatever story they tell themselves, this young woman is standing up in the face of a medieval mob of hate in the heart of New Europe. Courage shows itself in many ways and that is what we see in her now.https://www.esc.vote/ Ilana Rachel Daniel@thecommondenominator

Haviv Retting Gur
On Israel’s govt:

Absolutely gutting because it is spot on.

“Biden has hamstrung us? How? He’s threatened to bomb us? To send troops against us? To sanction us?

We are led by simpering cowards who couldn’t take Gaza in seven months, couldn’t make a show of humanitarian concern, both because it is right and because it gives political cover to our allies.

An Israel led by an Ariel Sharon or Yitzhak Rabin would have crossed Gaza in a month, and we’d now be six months into reconstruction and deradicalization, with a massive and visible humanitarian aid program because our PM wouldn’t be afraid of Ben Gvir.

We are led by incompetents who seem ready to tread water for another six months whimpering at what America might think.

No, I have too much self respect as an Israeli to blame our incompetence and political frailty on Joe Biden. When did Israel’s leaders grow so weak at the knees?”

Episode #7
“Gunfire in the Negev and Our Fragile Security”

A Day in the Life:
Here we report with firsthand account a harrowing incident of terror into our Negev village that headlined the news the next morning, on the precarious steps we take throughout this land under shadow of war and a threat greater now than ever before.

“What the world wakes to but has not yet defined - is the purpose which Israel serves - in its original concept if not its imperfect realization. It is buffer between the civilized world and a barbaric totalitarianism that would devour it whole. It is this civilization and its shocking fragility which we come to defend.”

Another night spent with our entire Southern Israel village shaking under hours of non stop shooting from Lakiya, the large Beduin town next door. Tens of thousands of bullets and larger guns shot rapid fire offer a taste of the scale and quantity of weaponry held. The police are still in October 6th.
We residents are under no such illusions.

**“CoVId wIlL kiLL yOu” is = to “iSraEL wiLl KiLl You”

A campaign in fact more successful than Corona; for the perception of Israel as ‘all the bad a nation state could ever be and has ever been’ VS the fantasy of a Palestine that is all that is free, indigenous and whole - claimed even the most righteously smug of the woke awake.

The awake movement has failed and become precisely what it sought to fight against - collaboration in mass murder and the collapse of the West.

There may be a fantastically conceived complex of lies to justify the destruction of the world’s Forever Other - the 15 million Jews on the planet so many just cannot abide having power of their own - but those tales - ones that unmask themselves when you line them side by side - won’t save your freedom or your soul from having aided the destruction of the Jews with Eyes Wide Open.

And if you succeed, dear endlessly foolish world, to rid the planet of the Jews - what moral code will guide you to save civilization from certain descent into an absolute and totalitarian technological abyss from which you cannot escape?

I can only quote Dr Einat Wilf here after reading this article;

"There has never been a time in Israel when we had a greater gap between the quality and spirit of our people and the quality and spirit of our government. We don’t deserve them and they don’t deserve us."

Meeting on next phases in Gaza ends in fracas as ministers snipe at IDF chief over probe

Right-wing politicians question timing of internal IDF Oct. 7 investigation while fighting ongoing, as Gallant, Gantz come to Halevi's defense and tell lawmakers to butt out
