🇦🇺 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.”

🔹 Near Tehran’s Azadi Square, the regime showcased Iranian missiles and debris claimed to be from Israeli drones shot down during the so-called “12-Day War.”

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.

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

👉 What’s next for Iran, Israel, and the region?

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.

🚨 Counterterror operation in northern Samaria

Soldiers from the IDF’s Menashe Territorial Brigade, guided by Shin Bet intelligence, completed a major counter-terrorism operation across 12 areas in northern Samaria.

🔹 Multiple Hamas and Islamic Jihad operatives were arrested

🔹 23 additional suspects detained overnight

🔹 AK-47, M4 rifle, handguns, ammunition and weapon parts confiscated

🔹 Thousands of shekels in terror funds seized

🔹 Dozens questioned, including suspects involved in smuggling Palestinians into Israel

Earlier this week, additional operations across Judea and Samaria led to more than 20 arrests, including a suspect accused of planning attacks against Israeli soldiers and civilians.

These actions come amid assessments that Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad are attempting to shift the focus of “resistance” activity from Gaza to Judea and Samaria following the October 2025 ceasefire.

Trump formally invited to receive Israel Prize in Jerusalem

Israel’s Education Minister Yoav Kisch has officially invited US President Donald Trump to attend the Israel Prize Ceremony on April 22 in Jerusalem—Israel’s 78th Independence Day—where he will be honored for his “Lifetime Special Contribution to the State of Israel and the Jewish People.”

This marks the first time a foreign leader will receive the prestigious award.

Kisch called it a “historic decision” and wrote to Trump:

“Your presence in Jerusalem would be a moment of profound significance for the people of Israel and a powerful expression of the deep and enduring friendship between our two nations.”


President Isaac Herzog, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and top leaders are expected to attend the ceremony.

When Iran calls Israel “Pharaoh,” burns a demonized “Baal” statue with a Star of David, and labels the Jewish state “Little Satan,” this is no longer political criticism — it is theological warfare.

In speeches, murals and mass rallies, the ayatollah regime is systematically recasting Israel as the embodiment of biblical evil: Pharaoh the tyrant, Baal the idol, even a modern-day Moloch. The message is clear — Israel is not portrayed as a nation to debate, but as a demonic force to be destroyed.

Tehran weaponizes Scripture, inverting the Exodus story itself, casting Palestinians as the “oppressed Israelites” and the Jewish state as their ancient persecutor.

It’s not just propaganda. It’s a deliberate spiritual reframing designed to strip Israel of its humanity — and make compromise impossible.
