From Israel Today/Tsvi Sadan The “Palestine” maps shown in the newsroom of MSNBC on October 17 represented what the pro-Palestine crowd believes to be the “disappearing Palestine.” These maps, often seen at “free Gaza” demonstrations, are a gutter tactic aimed at manipulating the masses by fictitious visual aids. Following protests, MSNBC reluctantly apologized by saying that “in an attempt to shed light on the geographic context of the Israeli-Palestinian issue, we aired a map that was factually wrong.” Even if sincere, this apology can’t undo the impression these maps left on millions of viewers that pay little attention to the well-documented…

The media has done a very poor job of reporting the terrorism in Israel over the last month. Especially in Europe, these attacks are usually ignored or talked about as if Israelis were injured or killed by anonymous forces rather than Palestinians. Here is the truth, from the perspective of an IDF soldier. WARNING: Graphic Content Source: Hananya Naftali
Two false statements by the US State Department this week in regard to the current wave of terrorism in Israel has infuriated those who truly understand the situation – not least of all Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Secretary of State John Kerry spoke at Harvard University on Tuesday, where he claimed that lack of a peace process and Israeli settlements were the cause of this terrorism. “What’s happening is that, unless we get going, a two-state solution could conceivably be stolen from everybody. And there’s been a massive increase in settlements over the course of the last years, and…
Since the most recent wave of terrorism began in Israel a few weeks ago, the international media has failed to present even a moderately balanced view of events. This is in part due to inherent anti-Israel bias in the media, and also gullible acceptance of official Palestinian propaganda. In an attempt to set the record straight and force the international media to cover the situation more fairly, Prime Minister Netanyahu held a press conference today where he countered Palestinian lies with the truth. “The current terror campaign in Israel is a result of continuous Palestinian incitement. First, on the al-Aqsa…
This is a call for love. I call on Jews and Arabs to stop the hate. We always talk about peace, but how about we start to live in peace. We always say that both sides are bad, maybe because of what we hear or see, but it doesn’t matter. How about we give one another a new chance to prove love. We always see each other at the bus station and give “the stare,” but how about we welcome one another in peace. That’s a good start for peace. Don’t talk about peace, make peace. Forget the hate, forget…
Knives are the most popular weapon of choice for the current wave of terrorist attacks in Israel. So self-defense experts in Krav Maga are teaching people how to protect themselves. This video is in Hebrew, but the point is clear even without English translation. Hopefully, no one reading this will ever need this information. But in Israel, it means the difference between life and death.
A wave of deadly terrorist attacks erupted over the weekend, leading to the death of four Israelis and the injury of several others. Beginning on Thursday evening, gunmen murdered a young married couple as they drove through Samaria with their four children in the car. Eitam and Naama Hankin were shot multiple times in their vehicle and were pronounced dead when Israel’s first responders arrived on-scene. The children (ages 4 months, 4 years, 7 years, and 9 years) were unharmed physically but suffered the trauma of witnessing their parents’ murder. A massive search for the murderers was launched, and within…
Ladies and Gentlemen, I bring you greetings from Jerusalem. The city in which the Jewish People’s hopes and prayers for peace for all of humanity have echoed throughout the ages. Thirty-one years ago, as Israel’s Ambassador to the United Nations, I stood at this podium for the first time. I spoke that day against a resolution sponsored by Iran to expel Israel from the United Nations. Then as now, the UN was obsessively hostile towards Israel, the one true democracy in the Middle East. Then as now, some sought to deny the one and only Jewish state a place among…
In the name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful H.E. Mr. Mogens Lykketoft, President of the General Assembly, H.E Mr. Ban Ki-moon, Secretary-General of the United Nations, Excellencies, Heads of Delegations Ladies and Gentlemen, I come before you today from Palestine, compelled to sound the alarm about the grave dangers of what is happening in Jerusalem, where extremist Israeli groups are committing repeated, systematic incursions upon Al-Aqsa Mosque, aimed at imposing a new reality and dividing Al- Haram Al-Sharif temporally, allowing extremists, under the protection of Israeli occupying forces and accompanying ministers and Knesset members, to enter the Mosque at…
Recent news from Iceland and the European Union has drawn attention once again to the BDS movement. But what is it? BDS is an acronym used by anti-Israel activists to promote Boycotts, Divestment, and Sanctions against Israel. The supposed justification for this move to boycott the products and people of Israel is the “illegal occupation of the West Bank” and other imagined injustices against the Palestinian people. But the movement is not about helping the Palestinians or making the world a better place. It is simply ill-disguised hate of the Jewish people. BDS has a strong foothold in European countries…
