5 minutes of intense Iron Dome interceptions.

Just in case some people forgot what happened just over 1 year ago. I also included some of my personal videos that I took.

Mazal tov!!

After 1 year and 8 months of the hardest training possibly the most elite and toughest commando unit in the IDF (Navy) known as Shayetet 13, the new recruits that passed have received their bat wing combat badge.

As their motto goes: "As the bat emerges from the darkness, As the blade cuts through with silence, As the grenade smashes in rage"

5 years ago today these 2 Israeli Druze police officers were murdered by terrorists on the Temple Mount. They were heroes named Haiel Sitawe and Kamil Shnaan.

I included a video of an Israeli Druze singer named Loai Ali who is also a patriot who served in the IDF in Gdud Cherev (The Sword Battalion, an Israeli Druze IDF unit). 2 years ago he was chosen to sing a famous song by Idan Amedi called Ke'ev shel Lochamim (Fighters Pain), which is about the pain of combat soldiers, on Yom Hazikaron (Memorial Day) and so he sang it in both Hebrew and Arabic.

In this video you will see images of 2 same Israeli Druze policeman who were killed in the line of duty defending Israel.

May their memories be a blessing and their blood avenged always!

Incredible!!

A magazine publication in Saudi Arabia called Al Majalla, recently ran an incredible first-time-ever story which was featured on the front page of their mag. It showed this pic of Israeli Arabs who serve in the IDF and spoke about it in a very positive way.

They also have a digital version written by my friend Suzan Quitaz which showed a pic of my friend IDF Major Ella Waweya who is an Israeli Muslim Arab who has the highest rank for female Arabs in the IDF. They interviewed her in Tel Aviv recently.

Last night 4 Israeli Jews illegally entered Shchem (Nablus) to go to Joseph's Tomb and were attacked after by Arabs in a car who opened fire at them and caused them to crash, wounding one of them in the head.

A preliminary investigation found that they had entered Joseph's Tomb without prior coordination with the IDF. They then drove from Shchem toward Itamar and had the accident along the way after being shot at. They exited the vehicle and fled on foot and hid nearby until security forces arrived. The wounded man is in a light condition.
