Danny Danon, Israel’s ambassador to the United Nations, has written a poignant analysis of the failed US-sponsored resolution to condemn Hamas.

UNRWA, the bloated organization that teaches young Arab children to hate Israel and perpetuates the Arab refugee crisis is now under siege by Gazan Arabs upset by budget cuts.

Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull, a friend to Israel, is out. Scott Morrison is in. Morrison is also known to be pro-Israel. Morrison was loyal to Tony Abbott, who was PM before Turnbull, and who had made noise about moving the Australian embassy to Jerusalem. But while Scott Morrison may be good for the Jews, Josh …
The news about Corbyn’s associates gets worse every day. We’re constantly treated to new revelations, all of them gut-twisting in nature. The man just loves terrorists, apparently. The latest revelation has Corbyn attending a conference in Qatar, where he hosted a panel discussion attended by several senior members of terror organization Hamas. Attendees included Husam …
British Home Secretary Sajid Javid has now suggested Jeremy Corbyn resign as Labour leader after it was revealed that he honored terrorists during a 2014 trip to Tunisia.
