State Department Willing to Leave the Beach to Bash Israel

On Saturday, 17 people were killed, including civilians in Khartoum, Sudan in a war taking place in that country. At the same time, ISIS terrorists murdered 37, including school children in Uganda. Yet not a peep from the US State Department, and a mild condemnation from a minor UN body. However, a day later, on Sunday, when the folks in the US are usually enjoying a day off, a State Department spokesman left the beach (so to speak) in order to condemn Israel for announcements that it is approving the construction of 4,500 homes in Judea and Samaria, and that the process for building approvals in Judea and Samaria would be less bureaucratic. Talk about obsessive hypocrisy! Plus, the other latest news from Israel, on this week’s Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten.

This past Saturday night, Former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak called on those attending protests against the government (under the guise of judicial reform), to move towards a civil rebellion. While claiming he is against violence, Barak clearly showed that he remains committed to trampling on Israel’s democracy, which elected the current government this past November. U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris, also hinted during an event celebrating Israel’s 75th birthday in modern times, that she opposes Israel’s judicial reform plan – an internal Israeli issue. These stories, plus all the latest news on this week’s Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten.

Headed back to Homesh

The IDF this week signed an order, which allows Israelis to go back to the site of Homesh, one of the four northern Samaria communities dismantled along with 21 Jewish communities in Gaza, as part of the 2005 so-called “Disengagement.” There is currently a yeshiva at the site, but there is now optimism that the move will lead to the rebuilding of the community. Perhaps this will also lead to the rebuilding of the other three northern Samaria communities? On this week’s Israel Uncensored, Josh Hasten discusses what many believe to be a just decision, which took 18 years to carry out. The Biden Administration however, condemned the move. This story, plus all the latest news from Israel on this week’s podcast.

However, U.S. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, had nothing but love for the Jewish State, during his Knesset address on Monday. All of this plus the latest news from Israel, including rockets fired at the south by terrorists from Gaza as the podcast was recorded, on this week’s Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten.

A Difficult Pesach

Arabs Will Be Grateful for New “National Guard”

On today’s Israel Uncensored, Josh Hasten argues that while the Attorney General and others are up in arms about Israel’s new National Guard entrusted to National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, in the end, both Jews and especially Arabs, will be grateful for the new law enforcement body. With rampant crime, murder, and illegal activities especially in the Arab sector, Josh says the new force will tackle these issues, creating a better quality of life for Israel’s Arab community, and will thus be welcomed. Ironically, when the idea was conceived under the previous government, the pushback was at a minimum. It sounds like those opposed to the new force, have politics on their mind.

A Sad Disunity
