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

Should Groups Accusing Israel of Apartheid be Allowed into Schools?

On today’s edition of Israel Uncensored, Josh Hasten expresses his approval of the Education Ministry’s decision to ban the organization B’Tselem from speaking in Israeli schools, after the group decided to accuse Israel of being an Apartheid State. While some believe Israeli youth should be exposed to all views in order to decide on the issues for themselves, Josh asks, “where is the line?” Should Arab terrorists, neo-Nazis, or others be allowed into schools in the name of freedom of speech? At the same time Josh says that accusing Israel of Apartheid is an insult to those who experienced true Apartheid in South Africa. Plus, for the first time since the establishment of the State, Aliyah has been put on hold for a week, as the government has ordered the closure of Ben-Gurion airport in order to stifle the various corona virus mutations, which have made their way into the country.

How Does One Mistakenly Pass Out Textbooks Calling for Jihad?

On today’s Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten, the United Nations agency responsible for helping so-called “Palestinian refugees,” known as UNRWA says it “mistakenly included” children’s school textbooks for PA kids, which praised jihad and called for Israel’s destruction. Josh isn’t buying UNRWA’s claims of a mistake pointing out that UNRWA schools have been inciting against the Jewish State for decades through their teachings and textbooks. He says that perhaps the only mistake they made was not including enough Jew/Israel hated in their books, as they continue to keep their residents in squalor while blaming Israel for their population’s woes.
