Tonight is the Jewish Ethiopian holiday known as Sigd which is now an official Israeli holiday (since 2008). In short, Sigd symbolizes the acceptance of the Torah.

This ceremony was held yesterday at the Kotel in Jerusalem in honor of their holiday. To commemorate it, many members of the great Ethiopian community came to the Wall Plaza where a ceremony was held with the participation of many police officers who are from the Ethiopian community

Additional state guests included the Minister of Homeland Security, the Minister of Aliyah, the Police Chief, Major General Kobi Shabtai, MP Gadi Yabarkan, Kaysim and Rabbi Yitzhak Blichbard who is the Rabbi for Magav and who initiated the idea.

The Jewish Ethiopian community are a great one, they are very proud, very faithful and very loyal, they serve proudly in the IDF and police units, they deserve more respect and not because of their skin color, but because of their integrity and sincerity.
The Israeli Ministry of Defense, Air Force and Air Industry started to put in place the new "Sky Dew" system (Tal Shamayim), similar to the one we have on the Gaza border except this one is massive!

This system is used to detect and alert for advanced threats and it will be deployed in the sky at a designated site in the north of Israel. This will be a significant component in strengthening the protection of the state borders. The defense system is comprised of a High Availability Aerostat-borne System and advanced radar. It will operate at high altitudes, providing detection and early warning capabilities for threats emerging from the north and from different directions.

The advantages of tethered aerial systems include the ability to elevate in a matter of seconds and stay in the air for an unlimited period of time since the electric power supply remains on the ground. The logistical footprint is reduced dramatically – the output provided to customers is achieved in a simple, accessible and affordable way

Arabs filmed themselves firing large amounts of bullets indiscriminately at the city of Rosh Pina in the north of Israel. You can see they have tracer bullets to show their location.

Apparently this happens often and bullets hit random parts of the city, people's homes, gardens, the streets etc....so far one was arrested but the identity of the others here are not yet known.

This is absolutely disgusting!
Facebook (Meta), by their own policy, supports terrorists, well "some" of them.

The fact that they have "some cases" means they see terrorists in "some cases" as "Freedom Fighters" and of course they get to decide who gets that privilege. So basically I can assume, based on years of banning experience with Facebook and now seeing it in their own policy, that they see "Palestinians" as "Freedom Fighters".

The South African Ambassador came to cause trouble with the IDF soldiers in an area east of Bethlehem. Abusing his diplomatic rights basically to support people who want our destruction.

Do not fall for the crap they are saying, it's all part of the propaganda scam. They are not there to pick olives, there is no olive season picking event taking place there as the Arab media described it. Even the IDF officer, who is located there permanently, understands that this is all a scam, a show for the cameras to make us look bad and them look like sweet innocent olive pickers.

Westerners fall for this crap all the time.
This evening I volunteered to help deliver food packages to poor families in Yavne, the city I live in.

The organization first runs collections of food items that are donated by random people out there, we also donate. However this time I decided I wanted to be one of the delivery drivers to physically take the donated packages directly to the families in need. The organizer of this gives you a list of people with their phone number and address and then you are responsible to get it to them by navigating, calling and then delivering it to their doorstep. The joy they show when you arrive is priceless.

Sometimes it is good to go see how people less financially fortunate live to remind ourselves of what is important and what we need to appreciate. It pains me to see Jews who are in need of such things and so I pray for their success or their children's success to get out of that situation.
This week Israel sent medical aid to Romania due to the Corona crisis they are experiencing. We sent a shipment of 40 oxygen generators to them.

Last night Arab teens were firing large amounts of fireworks at the homes of Jews in Jerusalem's old city. This is a regular occurence whereby they harrass Jews and attempt to harm us in our homes. This has to stop!

The Magav border police came to arrest tge ones they could locate.
Regular weekly riots occurred again today by Arabs in Beit Dajan near Shchem (Nablus)
