Who Won the Latest Israel/Hamas Confrontation?

Israel and Hamas agreed to a ceasefire this past Friday morning after 12 days of fighting in which Hamas fired over 4,000 rockets at the Jewish State, killing 13 Israelis, while Israel struck back targeting hundreds of terror targets and killing over 200 terrorists. Who gained the upper hand as a result of this latest round of conflict? While Israel certainly delivered a strong blow to Hamas, the terror group wasn’t destroyed and has the capabilities to start launching rockets again at any time. Plus Hamas is still holding on to two Israeli civilians and two IDF soldiers killed in the 2014 war. So who won this round? Josh Hasten gives his opinions on this week’s edition of “Israel Uncensored.”

Biden Administration Making all the Wrong Moves

On this week’s Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten, Josh discusses all the wrong moves made by the US Biden Administration in regard to Israel and the Middle East, while world Jewry was busy celebrating Passover. From launching indirect talks with Iran, to once again labeling Israel as an “occupier” in Judea and Samaria, from refunding the Palestinian Authority, to lifting sanctions on the ICC prosecutor, Josh says that on all of these issues, the administration is doing what it can to undo the accomplishments of the Trump administration and ultimately harm Israel’s interests.

#IsraElex4

Israelis will go to the polls tomorrow for the fourth Knesset Elections in the past two years. While final poll projections indicate that parties will have trouble building a coalition leading to a 61-member Knesset majority, and thus forming a government, election day surprises and political maneuvering, could lead to the formation of a government and prevent Israel going to election #5. Josh Hasten breaks down some of the possible scenarios on this week’s Israel Uncensored.

Netanyahu Campaigning in Judea/Samaria

On today’s Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten, Josh discusses some of the comments made by Prime Minister Netanyahu on a visit yesterday to Gush Etzion. The Prime Minister promised that if elected to another term he would work on authorizing some of the “young communities,” throughout Judea and Samaria, which have received government support but have not gotten a final stamp of approval. The Prime Minister used his visit to make his case as to why the Israeli public should back his Likud Party in the March 23 Knesset Elections.

BDS in Cahoots with Terrorists

On today’s Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten, a Jerusalem Post report reveals that at least 60 anti-Israel BDS groups recently took part in two online events led by leaders from Iran, Hamas, and other terror organizations. The fact that BDS groups are in direct cahoots with these terrorist entities proves that their true mission isn’t to encourage the boycotting of Israel, or to improve Arab lives, but rather their goal is to destroy the Jewish State.

Israel Weighs Response to Attacked Cargo Ship

Israel’s top officials are pointing a finger at Iran over an attack on an Israeli cargo ship this week in the Gulf of Oman. Pundits are now discussing what a potential response would be by Israel over this aggression. No injuries were reported, as the ship made its way to Dubai, for repair. With the US seeking to reenter the bad Iranian nuclear deal in some form, Israel might need to focus on its new close ties with Arab Gulf-States to thwart Iran’s nuclear and world-wide terror ambitions. This story plus all the latest news from Israel on this week’s edition of Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten.

Comparing Kindergartens to Terrorism

On today’s Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten, the US State Department Spokesman called on Israel the other day to refrain from building in Judea and Samaria and in the same breath called on the PA to stop paying the salaries of terrorists. Can a comparison really be made between the construction of new kindergartens, and terrorist rewards for murdering Israeli civilians? The new US State Department apparently thinks so. Plus for the first time ever the KKL-JNF is considering to openly fund the purchase of land from Arabs in Judea and Samaria in order to help develop more Jewish communities there. The final vote on the matter will be held after Israel’s elections. Plus all the latest news from Israel on this week’s show.

Terror at Home and Abroad

On today’s Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten, Josh discusses the blast which took place near the Israeli Embassy in New Delhi on Friday. Many believe the explosion was a warning shot sent by an Iranian-backed terror group who may be planning future attacks against Israeli targets in that area of the world. At the same time here in Israel, an Arab terrorist tried to carry out a stabbing attack at the Gush Etzion Junction yesterday. Thanks to an alert IDF soldier, the terrorist was killed before he could inflict any damage. These stories plus all the latest news from Israel, on this week’s show.
