Two young Palestinian boys aged just 12 and 13 stabbed and seriously wounded a Jewish security guard at the light rail station in Jerusalem’s northern Pisgat Ze’ev neighborhood on Tuesday. One of the boys was shot and seriously wounded by his victim. The other was captured by security forces. It was the second stabbing attack in Jerusalem on Tuesday morning. In the other incident, an Arab man attempted to stab police officers near the Old City’s Damascus Gate only to be shot and neutralized before he could draw blood. The Pisgat Ze’ev attack was reminiscent of a similar stabbing last…

This week the US House of Representatives passed a bi-partisan resolution explicitly condemning the Palestinian leadership’s incitement of terror which has led to nearly a thousand attacks on Israelis in the last two months. 369 members signed a letter telling President Abbas to end his incitement and stop the violence or risk losing hundreds of millions of dollars in foreign aid from the United States. Unlike President Obama and Secretary Kerry, the House of Representatives made it clear that there is no moral equivalency between the terrorists and their victims. The resolution’s sponsor, Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, made this statement after…

The terrorism and violent protests that have plagued Israel nearly every day since September 14th of this year has drawn the attention of the world. But not to pressure the Palestinian leadership to get their people under control and bring an end to the violence. Instead, world leaders repeatedly condemn Israel for causing Palestinian anger by allowing settlements in the West Bank. One of the most popular claims made by those who are critical of Israel is that under international law, Israel is an illegal occupier of the West Bank. But as you can see in this video, international law…

The media has done a very poor job of reporting the terrorism in Israel over the last month. Especially in Europe, these attacks are usually ignored or talked about as if Israelis were injured or killed by anonymous forces rather than Palestinians.

Since the most recent wave of terrorism began in Israel a few weeks ago, the international media has failed to present even a moderately balanced view of events. This is in part due to inherent anti-Israel bias in the media, and also gullible acceptance of official Palestinian propaganda. In an attempt to set the record straight and force the international media to cover the situation more fairly, Prime Minister Netanyahu held a press conference today where he countered Palestinian lies with the truth. “The current terror campaign in Israel is a result of continuous Palestinian incitement. First, on the al-Aqsa…

Knives are the most popular weapon of choice for the current wave of terrorist attacks in Israel. So self-defense experts in Krav Maga are teaching people how to protect themselves. This video is in Hebrew, but the point is clear even without English translation. Hopefully, no one reading this will ever need this information.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I bring you greetings from Jerusalem. The city in which the Jewish People’s hopes and prayers for peace for all of humanity have echoed throughout the ages. Thirty-one years ago, as Israel’s Ambassador to the United Nations, I stood at this podium for the first time. I spoke that day against a resolution sponsored by Iran to expel Israel from the United Nations. Then as now, the UN was obsessively hostile towards Israel, the one true democracy in the Middle East. Then as now, some sought to deny the one and only Jewish state a place among…

In the name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful H.E. Mr. Mogens Lykketoft, President of the General Assembly, H.E Mr. Ban Ki-moon, Secretary-General of the United Nations, Excellencies, Heads of Delegations Ladies and Gentlemen, I come before you today from Palestine, compelled to sound the alarm about the grave dangers of what is happening in Jerusalem, where extremist Israeli groups are committing repeated, systematic incursions upon Al-Aqsa Mosque, aimed at imposing a new reality and dividing Al- Haram Al-Sharif temporally, allowing extremists, under the protection of Israeli occupying forces and accompanying ministers and Knesset members, to enter the Mosque at…

Recent news from Iceland and the European Union has drawn attention once again to the BDS movement. But what is it? BDS is an acronym used by anti-Israel activists to promote Boycotts, Divestment, and Sanctions against Israel. The supposed justification for this move to boycott the products and people of Israel is the “illegal occupation of the West Bank” and other imagined injustices against the Palestinian people. But the movement is not about helping the Palestinians or making the world a better place. It is simply ill-disguised hate of the Jewish people. BDS has a strong foothold in European countries…
