Israel Bracing for Iranian Strike

The Land of Israel · Israel Uncensored: Israel Bracing for Iranian Strike

On today’s Israel Uncensored, Josh Hasten says that reports indicate that Iran and its proxies may strike the Jewish State in the next several days, as retribution for the killing of top Hezbollah and Hamas leaders. Israel took credit for the airstrike on Beirut which took out top Hezbollah leader Fuad Shukr, responsible for last week’s rocket attack that killed 12 Druze children in the Golan. At the same time, top Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh was sent to meet his maker after an unclaimed strike in Tehran. Iran has vowed revenge for both attacks. May G-d protect the State of Israel and the Jewish People during these tumultuous times.

On today’s Israel Uncensored, Hasten says that history has taught that appeasing terrorists in our region or kicking the can down the road, does not yield results. Even though the administration in Washington has adapted policies showcasing weakness, Israel must stand strong with threats on many fronts.

The Land of Israel · Israel Uncensored: Give Up on Sovereignty for Peace with Saudi Arabia?
