Baruch Dayan HaEmet

IDF combat solider Reuven Magen, who saw 5 of his friends killed in front of him during Operation Tzuk Eitan in Gaza 2014 when he was only 19 years old, was buried today at age 27 after a long struggle with PTSD.

His unit was about to enter Gaza but were hit by heavy shelling which killed his 5 friends and injured him in the leg. He was recognised by the Ministry of Defence as a soldier injured with PTSD but suffered serious nightmares till the day he died. I guess the pain was too hard for him. He died in his home.

Thank you for your service and may your memory be a blessing and may your family heal.

Welcome to 2 Holocaust survivors named Zoya and Michael Trachtenberg who arrived from Ukraine to Israel.

Zoya said: "We are refugees for the 3rd time in our lives. Our only son, who died of cancer, is buried in Zhitomir. We did not have time to say our goodbyes at his grave and I do not know if I can get to his grave again."

Michael, who is a well-known doctor in the local Jewish community, said: "I was not able to save my son from cancer. When we got to Zhitomir I thought it would be our last stop but now, at 88 and 86 we have become refugees again."

I am sorry to hear of your troubles but I am very happy you are back home in Israel.

A beautiful moment last week when this little kid ran to the open field during his father's IDF Beret ceremony. This is the ceremony where soldiers receive their berets after a grueling Masa Kumta (beret march). His father who was standing there ran to fetch him.

The IDF's elite special forces unit known as Sayeret Matkal is considered to be one of the best special operations units in the world. They are one of Israel's most secretive units and almost all of their operations are highly classified and not revealed to anyone without the highest security clearance within Israelโ€™s entire security establishment.

Bibi Netanyahu giving his solid very valid opinion on the US nuclear deal with Iran.

Have all Democratic American leaders lost their minds? Did they literally learn nothing?

An insightful opinion by Rabbi Yoseph Ben Porat on "Why the Muslims want the Temple Mount".

Ever since Jerusalem was ruined, many nations have fought for it and today the Muslims claim ownership of the Temple Mount.

Do the Arabs have a connection and a belonging to the Holy Temple? Why doesn't the Temple Mount nor Jerusalem appear in the Quran?

Enjoy this deep lecture about one of the most charged and controversial topics in the world.

Why the Israeli army created the Galil rifle

The IDF crossed the AK-47 / M-16 and a bottle opener to make the IMI Galil. But Why doesn't the Israeli Military use the 5.56mm Galil rifle anymore? The Israeli Defense Forces used the Galil as their primary combat rifle from 1972 - 2000. But can the new Galil ACE that was recently resurrected give this legendary weapon the comeback its always deserved?

Jew haters from the "Irish-Palestinian Solidarity Campaign" set up an information booth on "Grafton Street" in Dublin to "raise awareness of the Palestinian cause" as they said.

If anyone on our side lives there, please go counter their BS.
