Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu departed for Washington a short time ago. It will be his seventh visit to the United States since US President Donald Trump began his second term.

The trip will focus on Gaza, regional developments, and, above all, US-Iran negotiations.

Netanyahu told reporters before boarding with Wing of Zion:

“I will present to the president our perspectives on the key principles in the negotiations—principles that, in my view, are important not only for Israel but for anyone in the world who seeks peace and security in the Middle East.”

Netanyahu lands in Washington for high-stakes talks with Trump as Iran races to rebuild its missile arsenal and bury its nuclear secrets deep underground.

With Tehran accelerating preparations for conflict and US diplomacy focused narrowly on uranium enrichment, Israel warns: ignoring Iran’s missiles, terror proxies, and regime brutality is a dangerous mistake.

Former Israeli National Security Chief Jacob Nagel says it plainly: “No other way will solve the problem at the root.”

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Tuesday signed papers to revoke the Israeli citizenship of two terrorists and deport them.

It is the first-ever implementation of a law passed by the Knesset in 2023.

“This morning I signed the revocation of citizenship and deportation of two Israeli terrorists who carried out stabbing and shooting attacks against Israeli civilians and were rewarded by the Palestinian Authority for their criminal acts.”


The terrorists to be deported are both from Jerusalem:

Mahmoud Ahmad, who was sentenced to 23 years in prison in 2001 for a string of shooting attacks;

Muhammad Ahmad Hussein Halsim, who was sentenced to 18 years in 2016 for stabbing two elderly women in Jerusalem.

🇦🇺 Caught red-handed! Fringe group falsely claims to represent Aussie Jews in anti-Herzog ad

A full-page newspaper ad by the progressive Jewish Council of Australia—opposing the visit of Israeli President Isaac Herzog—has sparked outrage after numerous individuals were listed without their consent.

🔹️ The ad claimed “over 1,000 Jews” said No to Herzog—labeling him an “alleged war criminal.”

🔹️ But names were used without permission.

🔹️ Some names were obviously fake.

🔹️ The actual list had far fewer names, and even non-Jews could sign.

Peter Wertheim of the Executive Council of Australian Jewry said the ad falsely inflated a “micro opinion” and misrepresented Jewish sentiment.

Bottom line: This ad wasn’t a statement from “the Jews”—it was a disinformation campaign by a fringe group, misleading the public and abusing trust.

A theological earthquake is shaking America’s support for Israel

For decades, American Christians were Israel’s most reliable allies. Today, that alliance is fracturing—from evangelical churches to conservative media voices.

Some still see Israel as the fulfillment of biblical promise. Others now frame it as a geopolitical burden—or worse. The divide runs through families, congregations, universities… and even the political right.

Is Israel part of God’s unfolding history?
Or merely a modern political problem?

This isn’t just foreign policy. It’s a spiritual battle reshaping American Christianity—and redefining the future of Christian-Jewish relations.

🇮🇱 Israel expands authority in Judea & Samaria over PA violations

Israel’s Foreign Ministry says its recent Cabinet decisions in Judea and Samaria respond to repeated Palestinian Authority breaches of signed agreements.

🔹 The PA has:
• Destroyed archaeological sites
• Diverted water sources
• Engaged in illegal construction, including land grabs in Area C with EU funding

🔹 The new Israeli measures include:
• Ending confidentiality on land registries
• Removing discriminatory laws that barred non-Arabs from buying land
• Protecting heritage sites even in PA-controlled Area A

💬 MFA: “This corrects a racist distortion based on Jordanian law.”

Meanwhile, Mahmoud Abbas slammed the move and is reportedly drafting a Palestinian “constitution”—a clear violation of the Oslo Accords.

🔍 A new watchdog report finds the PA paid $315M to 23,500 terrorists in 2025 alone through its ongoing “pay-for-slay” scheme.

🇺🇸 US Senator Jim Risch: “The PA can’t be trusted… Abbas still hasn’t gotten the message.”

Demonic “Baal” statue burned at anti-Israel rally in Iran

At demonstrations organized as part of the Islamic Republic's 47th anniversary celebrations, protesters set fire to a statue of “Baal”—a biblical idol—designed with Hebrew letters and a demonic appearance, wearing a Star of David on its head.

📢 Chants of “Death to Israel” accompanied the burning, as the crowd compared Israel to the Canaanite deity Baal, a symbol of religious betrayal in the Bible.

📖 The Bible tells us that Baal—meaning “lord” or “master” in Hebrew—was a fertility and storm god, and a direct contrast to the God of Israel. The prophet Elijah’s famous showdown with the prophets of Baal on Mount Carmel remains one of the most iconic biblical rejections of pagan worship.

The Iranian regime's use of such imagery reflects a deepening theological attack on Israel, beyond politics.

Trump-Netanyahu meeting: No deal yet, but Iran is on notice (again?)

After meeting Netanyahu at the White House, President Trump says talks with Iran will continue—for now. While no final decisions were made, the message is clear: a good deal or no deal at all.

Meanwhile, Netanyahu pushed Israel’s security priorities and stressed the need for tight coordination as Iran talks continue.

Historic milestone for the IDF! 🇮🇱

The Yonatan Battalion, the first regular Haredi combat unit in the IDF’s all-Haredi Hasmonean Brigade, is now fully operational after completing its first battalion-level exercise in the Golan Heights.

🔹 The soldiers trained in open-field combat, urban warfare, drone operations, and more—all while preserving their ultra-Orthodox identity.

IDF Ground Forces Commander Maj. Gen. Nadav Lotan praised the soldiers: “You operate at a high operational standard while preserving your unique identity.”

Battalion Commander Lt. Col. A., a rabbi, declared: “We’re cultivating God-fearing soldiers—heroes, men of valor and truth.”

This comes as Israel moves to draft more ultra-Orthodox Jews into the IDF, with a goal of enlisting 10,000 men within two years.

“Death to Herzog” was spray-painted on the wall of a building at Melbourne University’s Parkville campus on Thursday, the final day of Israeli President Isaac Herzog's 4-day visit to Australia.

The emotionally-charged visit was largely a success, but anti-Israel groups did their best to disrupt it.

Herzog was scheduled to visit the Adass Israel synagogue in Melbourne on his final day in the country, but had to scrap the event due to security concerns.
