The Pulse of Israel

Prime Minister Netanyahu has signed an order to revoke and expel two Israeli Arab Muslim citizens convicted of terrorism. For any democracy to survive, citizenship cannot coexist with active allegiance to those who seek its destruction, and Israel has finally taken a first step in that direction. It is small, late, and insufficient on its own, but it signals the beginning of a necessary process. O...

Senator Lindsey Graham’s recent blunt warning to America’s Sunni Middle East “allies” exposed a geopolitical reality of the Arab Muslim Middle East few in Washington are willing to confront.

Understanding the reality of Israel today means cutting through the headlines and reconnecting to the truth of our people’s story, a sovereign Jewish nation rebuilding its strength in our ancestral homeland while confronting real, existential threats. It was an honor to present this talk in West Palm Beach, invited by Heroes for Israel, and to engage with thoughtful, challenging questions that onl...

As Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu arrived in Washington for yet another meeting with President Donald Trump, the Israeli media were already spinning tales of tension and drama based on anonymous speculation. But instead of rumors, the hard facts tell a different story, one where Israel is described in the U.S. Department of Defense strategy itself as a “model ally,” reflecting a historic strate...

A year ago, walking the halls of Capitol Hill, the support for Israel was visible, vocal, and morally clear. This year, in addition to the growing amount of anti-Israel voices from the Democrats, I was surprised to hear a different tone from a number of Republicans, fueled by a growing misinformation campaign trying to turn American Christians against the one country in the Middle East where Chris...

I respect Robert Kraft for putting real resources behind confronting antisemitism and using the Super Bowl stage to do it. But the campaign misses the core issue: the Jewish world still refuses to honestly diagnose why Jew-hatred has surged, and without identifying the cause, no solution will work. This is the diagnosis, and this is the solution... Join Our Whatsapp Channel: https://chat.whatsapp....

A Jewish Hollywood star shares her powerful personal journey that led her from fame in America to building a new life in Israel in my interview with Diane Neal from Law & Order: Special Victims Unit. She speaks candidly about experiencing antisemitism in the U.S., her Jewish pride, and the decision to make Aliyah.

The Muslim world was silent while Iran’s Islamic regime slaughtered tens of thousands. Turkey-backed forces have been massacring Kurds, Druze, Christians, and Alawites in Syria. Yet both Muslim governments and Western governments have rushed to condemn Israel for fighting jihadist forces in Gaza. In a region soaked in blood and hypocrisy, there is only one state whose system is built on protecting...

Netanyahu’s appointment of David Zini threatens the entrenched power structure of Israel’s unelected security-legal establishment (aka deep state), much like Trump's appointments at the FBI are doing in the U.S. After failing to block Zini directly, figures in the legal system are now going after his brother Bezalel Zini, signaling a potential indirect legal maneuver to remove Zini and preserv...

The political left and mainstream media in Israel are waging a daily campaign about the reopening of the Rafah border crossing into Gaza. However, it isn’t really about Gaza. It’s about another political campaign to weaken and bring down Netanyahu, after all previous campaigns have failed, after Netanyahu succeeded in bringing all the hostages from Gaza home.

Now that there are no more hostages in Gaza, voices on the political left in Israel are once again growing louder, calling for “moving on” and showing compassion without confronting the reality of what happened on Oct. 7th. In essence, we are being asked to forget the nature of the evil that attacked us, and enable it to invade us again in the future. Join Our Whatsapp Channel: https://chat.whatsa...

Celebrating the holiday of Tu B’Shvat in our generation is not a memory of the past; it is a prophecy you can taste, as the once-barren hills of Israel now overflow with fruit just as the prophets foretold in the Bible. Mark Twain walked this land in the 19th century and described it as desolate and empty; today those same hills bloom with vineyards, orchards, and life, a living sign that redempti...

A few months ago at the JNS Global Summit in Jerusalem, I had the honor of interviewing someone I deeply admire, Fiamma Nirenstein, journalist, author, and former European foreign affairs leader in the Italian government. Her clarity about Israel’s turning point, rising global Jew-hating antisemitism, and the responsibility of the Jewish people is something the world urgently needs to hear. Join O...

Will President Trump decide to strike Iran? Or will the Islamic Regime of Iran cave and sign a deal under Trump's overwhelming pressure? And what does this have to do with Trump's Gaza plan? We are in a moment of historic limbo. And to understand it, we have to stop analyzing through the usual diplomatic fantasy lens.

Thanks to the unbelievable work of our holy IDF soldiers, the last Israeli hostage has been brought home, closing one painful chapter of this war, but the danger from Gaza has not disappeared. With Hamas still standing and rearming behind new language and old ideology, Israel now faces a moment of clarity: finish the job, or prepare for the next October 7th.

Did you see the news that the Trump administration is considering offering asylum to British Jews as conditions for Jews in the UK grow increasingly dangerous? While it is reassuring that a country is willing to protect Jewish lives, the proposal also reveals a tragic misunderstanding of Jewish history and destiny: Jews do not need another place to flee to; we need to come home, to our ancestral h...

The United States is steadily deploying more forces into the Middle East for a potential military strike on the Islamic Republic of Iran. Yet it increasingly appears that the Trump administration has made a strategic choice: to dismantle the Shiite jihadi axis led by Iran while simultaneously backing Sunni jihadi regimes and movements across the region - Syria, Turkey and Qatar - and while we can...

Michael Knowles approaches Zionism through Christian theology, but Zionism is not a Christian idea to be judged by Christian categories; it is a Jewish return to Jewish history, land, and destiny. Knowles believes that Zionism is purely a secular movement, but that claim misunderstands its essence. For the Jewish people, our return to Israel is not a break from religious belief; it is the fulfillm...

Western Europe has perfected a dangerous moral fraud. It loudly accuses Israel, the Jewish state fighting for its life in a region of evil jihadi Islam, of war crimes, genocide, and “unacceptable violence,” while simultaneously burying its own historical and present-day atrocities under layers of silence, legal immunity, and media protection.

The Kurds are being massacred in Northern Syria, and they were betrayed by the West and the Trump administration. This is not a distant tragedy, it is a warning to us all. When the world abandons those who fought jihad on its behalf, it doesn’t buy peace; it empowers the very evil that will come next for all of us.

Israel’s latest manufactured “scandal” centers on the appointment of David Zini as head of the Shin Bet and his open declaration that, as a religious Jew, he does not shake hands with women in accordance with Jewish law. The furious reaction to this—framed as an issue of “equality”—reveals far more about Israel’s self-styled liberal elite and their intolerance for authentic Jewish observance than...

Stage Two of Trump’s Gaza “peace” plan has been launched with plenty of diplomatic fanfare, but almost no connection to reality on the ground.

Shabbat has ended in Israel, and President Trump has still not ordered an attack on Iran to save the Iranian people and topple the evil jihadist Islamic regime, leaving many asking the same question: will he act? The signals are mixed, but I believe the direction is becoming clear. Do not miss this update as well as the latest developments in Syria and Gaza. Join Our Whatsapp Channel: https://chat...

We must be honest, the United Nations is evil. The UN is not “failing” to stop terror. It is enabling jihadi terror.
