During a field visit to Hebron, IDF Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir declared the Tomb of the Patriarchs “one of the holiest sites in Jewish tradition” and affirmed the army’s duty to defend it.

🛡️ Ongoing counterterrorism operations in Judea are not only about security—they’re about protecting the heart of Jewish history and identity.

📍 “There is great importance in being familiar with our heritage and history as part of strengthening resilience and Jewish identity within the IDF,” said Zamir.

Police Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir: Hamas must be destroyed

Disturbing reports suggest some members of Trump’s “Board of Peace,” in particular Turkish strongman Recep Tayyip Erdogan, are promoting a compromise that would allow Hamas to remain, armed, in the Gaza Strip.

Ben-Gvir responds:

"If the reports about possibly allowing the Hamas murderers to continue existing in Gaza are true - they are very serious.

"The State of Israel went to war to destroy Hamas.

"No entity has the mandate to whitewash Hamas under the guise of a 'political movement,' nor to allow its Nazi terrorists who were responsible for the massacre, murder, rape, and burning of babies to continue effectively ruling the Strip.

"Hamas must be completely destroyed - in accordance with the main objective of the war."

A third US carrier strike group, USS George H.W. Bush (CVN-77), is moving into the Middle East theater.

The American military pressure around Iran is tightening, and the possibility of a direct attack on the Revolutionary Guards' capabilities has never seemed closer.

The Kurds in northwestern Syria are warning of an impending genocide.

📸 In the photos: Activists wave Kurdish and Israeli flags outside the US Embassy branch office in Tel Aviv, protesting in solidarity.

Over the past two weeks, the new Syrian regime—Sunni jihadists in all but name—has steadily advanced into Kurdish-controlled territory in the north.

If they take full control, many fear a massacre, as seen previously in the Druze regions of the south.

And yet, the world is silent.

Worse still, the US is reportedly considering withdrawing its last troops from western Syria—potentially the only force preventing a full-scale slaughter of the Kurds.

Argentine President Javier Milei at the World Economic Forum in Davos uses this week's Torah portion to warn the West over its rapid decline.

🌄 When the call comes, will you go?

This week’s Torah portion Bo confronts us with the power of a single, decisive moment—the night when Israel left Egypt. Not when it was safe. Not when everything was ready. But exactly when the fear was greatest, and faith had to move first.

The Exodus teaches us: Freedom isn’t born in comfort. It’s born in motion. Like the matzah—unfinished, unrisen—we must sometimes step forward before we’re “ready,” trusting that understanding will come along the way.

🕯 Shabbat Shalom from Jerusalem.

🇺🇸✍️ “Not just a board of peace — a Board of Action.”

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio says the newly formed Gaza Board of Peace is meant to deliver results — not just talk.

Speaking at the signing ceremony in Davos, Rubio emphasized that this body, led by President Donald Trump, will focus on making the Gaza plan enduring and serving as a model for global conflict resolution.

🔹 A shift from diplomacy to implementation?

🔹 A new framework for peace — or a test of international resolve?

Time will tell.

The Trump administration’s “Master Plan” for reorganizing and rebuilding the Gaza Strip.

Yellow - Residential zones
Brown - Industrial & high-tech
Green - Parks & agriculture
Purple - Tourism zone

The plan also includes new air and sea ports.

It’s ambitious, it’s utopian, and it’s very difficult for those of us who live in the region to imagine how this ever becomes a reality.
