Over the weekend, a Hezbollah-launched rocket claimed the lives of 12 Druze Israeli children playing soccer in the Golan village of Majdal Shams. Prime Minister Netanyahu cut his trip to the United States short and held security consultations on how Israel would respond to this heinous attack. On today’s Israel Uncensored, Josh Hasten says that the Druze are vowing that Hezbollah will pay a steep price for murdering their children, and that Israel should follow their lead when handling enemies bent on the demise of the Jewish State.

Israel Legalizes Five New Communities in Judea and Samaria
On today’s Israel Uncensored, Josh Hasten discusses how Israel’s cabinet this week granted full legalization to five communities in Judea and Samaria. While he applauded the decision, Hasten says that Israel should stress that the communities gained full recognition – not as a response to terrorist attacks or as a punishment. Rather, Judea and Samaria are the heartland of the State of Israel and the Jewish People and it’s our right to live and build in these areas.
Never Again Is Now
As world Jewry commemorates Holocaust Martyrs’ and Heroes’ Remembrance Day, on today’s Israel Uncensored, Josh Hasten says that the same Jew-hatred which existed in Nazi Germany is very much alive today. He said that while the October 7 massacre isn’t the Holocaust, the same ideology – which seeks to wipe the Jewish People off the face of the earth, is very much alive in Gaza, Judea and Samaria, in Europe, and on college campuses in the United States, in the form of Jihad.

Biden Administration Turns on Israel at the UN
This week, the United States, under President Joe Biden, abstained from an anti-Israel UN Security Council Resolution, thus allowing it to pass. The resolution, calling on an immediate ceasefire in Gaza, failed to condemn Hamas and failed to include an Israeli hostage release as part of the ceasefire. The fact that Hamas celebrated the passage of the (non-binding) resolution, says it all. Josh Hasten discusses this story, and all the latest news from Israel, on this week’s Israel Uncensored.

Oh no, Canada!
On today’s Israel Uncensored, Josh Hasten discusses Canada’s decision to halt arms sales to Israel. Just as Israel prepares to wipe out the remaining Hamas military brigades from southern Gaza, the government of Canada has decided to give the terrorist organization a lifeline, or perhaps at least a moral victory, by turning against the Jewish State in its just war against evil. This story and all the latest news from Israel on this week’s podcast.
U.S. Administration Trying to Overthrow Israeli Government?
On today’s Israel Uncensored, Josh Hasten shares that a senior Israeli official slammed a U.S. intelligence report claiming that the government of Prime Minister Netanyahu is in jeopardy. In other words, this self-fulfilling prophecy attempt is another sign that the Biden Administration wants Netanyhu and his right-wing government out of power. At the same time, it was reported that Biden and company are considering withholding U.S. military aid should Israel try to finish off Hamas in the southern Gaza town of Rafah. Israel has made clear that it must destroy the remaining Hamas battalions in Rafah in order to achieve victory over the terrorist organization.

The American People Stand With Israel
Even as the Biden Administration threatens that Israel is on the verge of losing international support due to its “conservative” government, a recent poll shows that over 80% of the American people stand with Israel in its war to eradicate Hamas. On this week’s Israel Uncensored, Josh Hasten discusses how despite the weekly attempts by the U.S. president to overturn all of the pro-Israel gestures implemented under President Trump – this week it was Secretary of State Blinken stating that Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria are illegal under international law, the American people are not being fooled. They continue to maintain their moral clarity when it comes to the Jewish State.
U.S. Vetoes UN Ceasefire Resolution
The United States on Tuesday vetoed an Algerian-sponsored U.N. Security Council resolution calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. On today’s Israel Uncensored, Josh Hasten says that the Biden administration is playing both sides of the fence. The veto is appreciated, but at the same time the U.S. continues to call for the establishment of a P.A. state which would be a win for Hamas, while also voicing concern over a necessary military operation in Rafah. Israel insists that it will continue full steam ahead until Hamas is defeated and the hostages are brought home.
Terrorist Outside My Window
On today’s Israel Uncensored, Josh Hasten shares how yesterday in Gush Etzion a knife-wielding terrorist, initially using his car as a weapon to try and ram into Israeli civilians and soldiers, was neutralized by Israeli security forces. Josh heard shots outside his window from just 50 meters away, and realized a security event was taking place. Thanks to alert security patrolmen, the terrorist, who was hoping to get out of his car and stab any Jew in sight after his failed ramming-attempt, didn’t get the chance.

9,000 Dead Hamas Terrorists – A Good Start
On today’s Israel Uncensored, Josh Hasten reacts to an IDF report indicating that 9,000 Hamas terrorists have been killed so far in Gaza. Josh says “it’s a good start,” but Israel still has a long way to go in order to completely eradicate the evil Hamas terrorist regime. Even as the Biden administration is pressuring Israel to “tone down the war,” Josh says that Israel must continue fighting until it achieves a complete victory.
