On Sunday, brothers Hallel Menachem and Yagel Yaakov Yaniv, both from the community of Har Bracha, were gunned down by a terrorist at point-blank range as they drove on Route 60 through the Arab village of Huwara, just south of Shechem (Nablus).
Israel mourns today, as two brothers from Har Bracha – Hillel and Yigal Yaniv HY”D were murdered in a terrorist shooting attack, carried out by an Arab Jihadist, in the Shomron village of Huwara on Sunday. The brothers were on their way back to their respective Hesder Yeshivas when they were gunned down at short range. 13 Israelis have been murdered in terrorist attacks since the beginning of 2023. On today’s Israel Uncensored, Josh Hasten says (once again), that the Israeli government must create a meaningful deterrence to prevent future terrorism.

This week, US Ambassador to Israel Tom Nides – under direction from the Biden Administration, decided to weigh in on Israel’s proposed judicial reform. In a patronizing manner, Nides said “We’re telling the prime minister [Netanyahu] – as I tell my kids – pump the brakes…” Israeli Minister for Diaspora Affairs Amichai Chikli told Nides to “mind his own business.” On this week’s Israel Uncensored, Josh Hasten says that Nides’ patronizing remarks against Israel’s government are unacceptable. While the US and Israel are great allies, Israel is not a banana republic which needs a scolding, as if we are the ambassador’s children.

On Sunday Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, complying with a Supreme Court ruling, fired Shas Party Minister Aryeh Deri. It is true that Deri has a criminal past and promised to stay away from politics, but on this week’s Israel Uncensored, Josh Hasten says that no doubt, the court’s ruling was politically motivated. He explains that the firing of Deri is a result of the court flexing its muscles, upset over the government’s proposed judicial reforms.

The rhetoric emanating from the Islamists on one side, who call for Israel’s destruction with chants of “from the river to the sea,” or who praise intifada and the white nationalists on the other, who use antisemitic tropes, including accusing Diaspora Jewry of having dual loyalty, is astounding.
Here’s a mashup of some of Josh Hasten’s most recent speaking & tv gigs.
Demonstrators took to the streets once again this past Saturday night with headlines claiming they came out to voice their opposition to judicial reform. However, the language used – referring to the current government as a “regime” and comparing it to the Nazi party, as PLO flags waved in the air, shows that the agenda of the sour grapes protesters goes far beyond judicial reform. The scary goal – use any means necessary, even if it means trampling on democracy, to overthrow the government.
