When it seems there is nothing left, there is still heart and soul. Around the world there are people busy spreading hate, shouting about killing Jews: “From the river to the sea Palestine will be free (i.e. free of Jews)” and “Too bad Hitler didn’t finish the job”. In Gaza there are people actively trying … More Giving heart and soul…
Parents around the world are familiar with the child’s fear of the dark, the fear of monsters under the bed or in the closet. In most cases, this fear is irrational and can be banished by simply turning on the lights. In Israel, it’s the parents that are afraid for their children. The monsters are … More Monsters under the bed…
Thank you Naftali Bennett for this clear and straightforward explanation of the situation. If only the world would wake up and demand and end to the terrorism that is endangering the lives of Israelis and Gazans alike.
At the demonstration people told me, “Don’t call me an Arab Christian; I’m an Arabic speaking Israeli Christian. We’re not Arabs.” Words matter, semantics matter.

All over Israel businesses are collecting gift packages for soldiers. There are signs in the streets promising, “We will be strong at home so that you … More Wrapped in love…
Israelis argue, complain and criticize. A lot. Israelis are loud, nosey, opinionated and brutally honest. Being polite or diplomatic is not our strong suite. Living in Israel is not easy. Our “neighborhood” is not nice – this current war with Hamas is just one example… In addition, Israelis themselves can be very difficult. So what’s … More Love your neighbor as yourself…
Wafa Sultan clearly explains the chaos in the world today.
The IDF has set up a hospital to take care of residents of Gaza. Hamas, after turning their own hospital in to a terror HQ with the terror leaders hiding in the basement (using patients as a human shield from Israeli airstrike) and shooting missiles at Israeli civilians from the hospital compound – is preventing … More IDF, caring for civilians – on both “sides”
This is what brotherhood looks like. In Hebrew there is a term that can be roughly translated as “mutual guarantee” – I will be there for you, you will be there for me and everything will be ok. Words cannot encompass the depth or importance of this concept. The clip illustrates this concept so fundamental … More You can relax, we’re above you.
