Senegal sees no issue in taking our aid and then supporting an anti-Israel resolution, one-sided, unfair, completely out of proportion to what Palestinians are doing.

"How...how do parents say good bye to their children in the morning as they leave home...and then bury them that night?" How?
Israel knows how hard it is for a lone soldier to go from comforting arms of the IDF into hardcore Israeli civilian life.

In today's attack, one soldier is seen running towards the attack, only to stop and turn back. Then dozens of others are seen running away from the truck that rammed into the soldiers.

Elor Azarya is a soldier of Israel. 10 months ago we sent him into battle. His friend was stabbed in that battle. Elor raised his gun and shot the terrorist. It wasn't murder. It wasn't even manslaughter.
The scene was surreal. We could hear the battle raging in Aza, but in the host’s realm there was relaxation, conversation, and the bubbly voice of our grandson.
By Paula Stern
Not only was Elor Azariya slapped in the face, but every soldier with a gun. The message is they must, in the middle of battle, stop and think what some idiot judge will think of their action.

Hundreds of protesters confronted police outside the court session, some of whom cried slogans accusing the court of picking up the knife from the ground and returning it to the terrorists.

I continue to read messages blaming me and others like me for the Trump victory because we dared to argue that Hillary Clinton was not an option. But how can I be blamed when I didn't vote for Trump?

How can you possibly understand the horror of watching your land burn? It is an open wound you don't forget for a moment, a thought that stays in your mind as you go about your day.

I'll give up the fires, the stoning attacks and more...thank you for visiting my site, really but I don't need 10,000 people a day to come here...my country needs peace. We need the fires to end.
By Paula Stern
Trump's mandate for the next four years should also mean a renewed examination into the behavior and actions of the media. The camera was always meant to share the picture, not create it.
Our heroes will fight to stop the fires and they'll take the time to rescue the Torah scrolls that contain our faith, our dedication, the promise God made to us to give us this land.

Israel has become the greatest of Sukkahs for the Jewish people - it is truly here that we are safe in a way we do not feel anywhere else in the world.

There's a growing tendency in the world to deal with terrorism by denying it. Regardless of who set those bombs in New York, it wasn't an accident-It was terrorism.

I considered the question, "Should we pray for Peres?" struggled with it for barely a second, and knew we should be because he's a Jew, because he's a human being.
By Paula Stern
In the last few years, terror attacks in the US and Europe have clearly become more common. I question not the interpretation of the fact, but the almost-desperate need to manipulate and deny it. Why?

And then, in horror, as I watched, the second plane hit. I started to cry as the shocked voices could be heard through the television; I started to pray, "Oh God,

Arranging a holiday in Israel can be very interesting. It seems like the whole country goes on vacation at the same time

The hypocrite says that the Palestinian Authority will NOT allow Israel to hold on to the dead bodies of terrorists, presumably those who died in the act of terror and those who caught afterwards.

I hope Trump wins, because Israel deserves better treatment than it got from Obama or will get from Clinton and Caine, who supported Obama's ongoing attempts to humiliate and insult Israel's leaders.

Though it is essential in a democracy to have an active opposition, Herzog has gone too far by attempting to subvert, undermine, weaken the government, and therefore the country itself.
