Eve Harow shares a few thoughts from the US where she is visiting family and speaking in different venues. No tears for Raisi; no disengaging from home; Memorial Day shouldn't just be shoe sales and bringing 2 loaves to the Temple on Shavuot was more significant than it seems. Praying for the imminent homecoming of all the hostages and safety to the soldiers who are rescuing them, dead or alive. מי כעמך ישראל

The IDF this week revealed that troops discovered at least 50 tunnels leading from Egypt into Rafah. On today's Israel Uncensored, Josh Hasten says that obviously the Egyptians knew that Hamas was importing weapons, literally under their noses, but failed to act. At the same time Egypt has reinforced their above ground border, not letting Gazans flee into their country. Nevertheless, the anti-Israel haters ignore Egypt (and Hamas) and blame the Jewish State for everything going on in Gaza.

Hezy Bentzur has become somewhat of a celebrity in the world of Aliyah, since he’s the owner of iAnglo English-speaking new car lease and buying service, which is used by many Olim looking for their first car in Israel. But man, oh man, his story is so much more – so much cooler – than just coming here and building a successful business. Join Goel on a wild ride that starts in Texas, makes stops in Oklahoma and Arkansas, and eventually takes Hezy and his family home to the Land of Israel.

Yedidya Harush lives in the Negev town of Shlomit, just north of Sinai which his parents were forced to leave to Egyptian rule and just east of Atzmona in Gush Katif from where they were expelled in 2005. Eve Harow speaks via choppy zoom to him in his backyard to the backdrop of explosions as they’re now on the front line of the war being waged in Rafiah. On Sunday 4 soldiers were killed and many wounded at Kerem Shalom nearby, where ‘humanitarian aid’ trucks deliver food to the non combatants-but-far-from-innocent jihadists- while our hostages die in the Gaza tunnels. He speaks of the bravery of his neighbors on October 7th and the price they paid; the strength of their community and the concerns for his children. The beauty of our nation, our faith and the bigger picture are what keep him going. Yedidya experienced many miracles in his 4 months of combat, but there is much to be done to ensure a lasting peace. Because, as we keep repeating, 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.

This week on Tuesday Night Live in Judea Ari Abramowitz and Jeremy Gimpel draw parallels between the story of the Jewish people and their redemption from Egypt, with the story of the Jews today. They explain that the response to the chaos we're seeing worldwide is for every person to figure out what their own part of the story is in this existential threat between good and evil.

On Saturday night, Iran launched over 300 missiles and drones against the State of Israel. 99% of the projectiles were shot down. On today's Israel Uncensored, Josh Hasten says that Israel must respond, not based on the results of the attack, but based on Iran's intentions. This is the Middle East where only the language of strength is understood, and Israel must not give Iran a hall pass, despite international pressure.

On this week’s podcast Eve Harow takes a break from fresh grief over the murder of a young shepherd and continuous grief over the hostages and injured and fallen soldiers. She’s filled with gratitude to the Israeli Air Force and defenses who in tandem with Hashem pulled off an incredible event in the wee hours of Sunday, a night she’ll never forget. In advance of the Jerusalem book launch, Tuvia Tenenbom joins her to speak about his year with the ultra-Orthodox which he documented in his newly released English version of 'Careful, Beauties Ahead'. Raised in the Chareidi world and hence fluent in Yiddish, the best selling author shares his thoughts on the warm and welcoming atmosphere and the charm, humor and caring that he experienced while based out of Mea Shearim in Jerusalem. And the food? Much better than in the Bnai Brak of his youth. And the shtreimels? He’s still not convinced that’s what Moses wore.
