Video Exposing UNICEF Bias [2:42]
Exposing the racism and bias of the United Nations Children’s Emergency Fund (UNICEF), which has turned a blind eye to the lives and welfare of Israeli children. Our video shows the disdain and apathy for Israel at UNICEF, another hateful UN agency.
As a result of the horrific Hamas Massacre on October 7 and continuing indiscriminate rocket attacks by Hamas and Hezbollah, tens of Israeli children were murdered and injured, 30 Israeli children were kidnapped into Gaza, nearly 100,000 children were displaced from their homes, and hundreds of thousands of children have been traumatized.While UNICEF claims that it works across the globe to “protect the rights of every child, everywhere” and according to its mission statement: “across more than 190 countries and territories, we do whatever it takes to help children survive, thrive and fulfill their potential”, it shockingly has no programs to assist Israelis, only Palestinians. Worse, UNICEF staff won’t even accept donations for Israelis.
Apparently, UNICEF helps children everywhere unless they are Jewish children in Israel.
Israel Victory: More Hamas Terrorists Eliminated by IDF as Biden Regime “Wants to Force Israel to Stand Down” [Videos] By Richard Abelson
Dec. 19, 2023 9:45 am – The most urgent “humanitarian issue” in Gaza is the 129 hostages still held by Hamas, Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant told US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin in Jerusalem Monday. A terrorist who took part in the the October 7 attack was captured in Gaza, while a wounded IDF soldier recounted how he took out two terrorists attacking him.
Israeli soldiers from the Golani Brigade’s 13th Battalion and the 188th Armored Brigade on Monday destroyed “Palestine Square” in Gaza City’s Shejaia neighborhood, including smashing a Hamas statue commemorating the killing of Golani soldiers during the 2014 Gaza war, JNS reported.
Chabad rabbis’ message to Cabinet: “Settle Gaza” Hezki Baruch
Senior Chabad rabbis in Israel send letter to War Cabinet, saying that territories given to enemy during the Disengagement must be resettled.
Dec 19, 2023, 3:37 PM (GMT+2) – Senior Chabad Rabbis in Israel sent a letter to the members of the War Cabinet stating that the areas in Gaza that were handed over to the enemy during the Disengagement must be inhabited.
Among other things, the rabbis wrote that when using the term “territories handed over to the enemy,” they mean the Jewish communities in the Gaza Strip that were given as part of the Disengagement plan.
“The territories given to the enemy must be resettled as Jewish communities, as a response to the horrific massacre on Simchat Torah,” they wrote.
The rabbis also wrote that one should not give in to the US demands on the security aspect, but on the other hand, they should end the war quickly and without endangering the soldiers and proceed “only according to pure military considerations”, according to the letter.

According to them, their letter is based on the Lubavitch Rebbe’s instructions throughout all of Israel’s wars since the Six Day War.
Poll: 69% of Israelis want elections immediately after war Israel National News
62% of respondents believe that the criticism and protests against Israel in the world stem from antisemitism and hatred of Israel.
Dec 19, 2023, 8:34 AM (GMT+2) – A survey by the Israel Democracy Institute that was published on Tuesday found that the large majority of Israelis, 69% of respondents, believe that elections should be held immediately at the end of the war.
The data shows that 51% of those who consider themselves right-wing supported elections immediately after the war, as well as 85% of centrists and an absolute majority of left-wing voters.
28% of respondents answered that they have yet to decide which party to vote for if the elections will be held after the war.
Left-wing voters were the least likely to vote for the party that they voted for in the last election cycle, while those who voted for the Arab parties were the most likely. With that said, the majority of the respondents said they would vote for the same party that they voted for in the past or a party in the same bloc.
Participants were also asked about the chance that Israel would reach the goals it set for the war. 71.5% of the Jewish public answered that the probability of destroying Hamas, both politically and militarily, is high, while only about a third (35.5%) estimated that the probability of returning all of the hostages was high. 64% of the respondents believe that Israel does not have a set plan for the Gaza Strip after the war.
62% of the Jewish public believe that the criticism and protests against Israel in the world stem from antisemitism and hatred of Israel. 39% classified Israel’s public relations since October 7th as bad or very bad.
Poll: Gantz wins 23 seats, Netanyahu crashes to 15, Smotrich doesn’t pass threshold Israel National News
A party led by Bennett wins 13 seats, a party led by former Mossad chief Yossi Cohen wins nine seats.
Dec 19, 2023, 3:59 AM (GMT+2) – A poll published on Channel 12 News on Monday night shows that if elections were to be held today, Benny Gantz’s party would receive 37 seats, compared to 18 seats for the Likud.
Yesh Atid wins 15 seats, Shas 11, Yisrael Beytenu 9, Otzma Yehudit 8, United Torah Judaism 7, Hadash-Ta’al, and Meretz and Ra’am each win 5 seats.
The Religious Zionist Party led by Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, Balad and Labor remain below the electoral threshold. Labor is set to soon hold primaries for its Knesset slate and the position of party chairman, in place of Merav Michaeli who has announced that she will step down.
The poll finds that the coalition that currently makes up the government, and without Gantz’s National Unity Party, wins only 44 seats. The opposition, including National Unity and without Hadash-Ta’al, wins 71 seats.
In the poll, which was conducted by the Midgam institute in collaboration with iPanel, the participants were asked: “If Knesset elections were held today, and a party led by Naftali Bennett and a party led by Yossi Cohen were running, and the Labor and Meretz parties would run in a unified slate led by Yair Golan, and the other parties remained unchanged, which party would you vote for?”
In this scenario, the National Unity Party led by Gantz leads with 23 seats, the Likud led by Benjamin Netanyahu is second with 15 seats, and the party led by Naftali Bennett comes in third with 13 seats. Further down the list – Shas maintains its strength with 11 seats, and Yesh Atid wins 10.
Labor and Meretz led by Yair Golan, and a party led by Yossi Cohen, each win 9 seats. United Torah Judaism and Otzma Yehudit win 7 seats each, Yisrael Beytenu wins 6 seats, and the Arab parties Hadash-Ta’al and Ra’am win 5 seats each. Here too, the Religious Zionist Party and Balad remain below the electoral threshold.

Among those who define themselves as right-wing, 9% support the transfer of Gaza to the PA, compared to 73% who are opposed to the idea. Among those who define themselves as center-left, 34% support the transfer of Gaza to the PA and 27% oppose it.
South Africa warns: Citizens fighting for Israel could face prosecution at home Elad Benari
South African government “gravely concerned” over reports that South African nationals have joined the IDF to fight in Gaza.
Dec 19, 2023, 6:52 AM (GMT+2) – South Africans fighting for Israel in Gaza could face prosecution at home, the government warned Monday, according to the AFP news agency.
The foreign ministry said it was “gravely concerned” by reports that some South African nationals have joined the IDF to fight in Gaza, or are considering doing so.
“Such action can potentially contribute to the violation of international law and the commission of further international crimes, thus making them liable for prosecution in South Africa,” the ministry warned.
It did not specify how many South Africans are thought to have enlisted.
The government has previously said the State Security Agency (SSA) was tracking them down.
Anti-Israel sentiments remain prevalent in South Africa, where the government has frequently accused Israel of applying a policy of “apartheid” towards Palestinian Arabs.
The tensions have been on the rise since the start of Israel’s war against Hamas in Gaza.
The South African government announced last month it was recalling its ambassador and entire diplomatic mission from Israel in protest against Israel’s attempts to defend itself from the Hamas terrorist organization following the October 7 massacre.
Later, South Africa called in Israeli Ambassador Eliav Belotsercovsky for a formal reprimand, citing “public comments” he had made.

In late November, a majority of South African lawmakers voted in favor of a motion calling for the closure of the Israeli embassy and the cutting of diplomatic ties until Israel agrees to a ceasefire in Gaza.
This past summer, a South African lawmaker called for a Cape Town-based Jewish day school to be “deregistered” due to the fact that many of the school’s graduates go to Israel and enlist in the IDF.
Hundreds of soldiers waited for orders outside the kibbutz as terrorists were attacking Israel National News
New footage shows a massive Israeli force rushed to Kibbutz Be’eri when Hamas attacked, but stopped short of actually entering the town.
Dec 19, 2023, 3:06 PM (GMT+2) – New footage of the Oct. 7th massacre was published this morning by Channel 12 News, showing a disturbing moment of the incident.
Dozens of combat teams that were rushed to the scene stood outside the gates of Kibbutz Be’eri and waited for orders, as opposed to aiding residents besieged in their houses by Hamas.
The footage shows IDF forces standing by as smoke rises from the houses of the kibbutz while a tank fires shells toward houses in an attempt to kill Hamas terrorists. The tank fire mildly injured at least one resident, but it is unclear if it killed any terrorists.

Residents of the kibbutz commented: “At around 6:10 p.m., I saw a force of hundreds of soldiers, fully equipped, with Border Police vehicles. I personally approached every officer I saw from the rank of Master Sergeant and up, and when I asked them who was the incident commander, they answered ‘I’m only in charge of these five or ten soldiers.’ No one knew who was running the whole incident; it was complete chaos instead of order. I told them they were slaughtering families, but no one was listening.”
Dramatic rise in missionary activity in Jerusalem’s haredi neighborhoods Israel National News
‘Missionaries taking advantage of fear and uncertainty created by Gaza war,’ Yad L’Achim warns.
Dec 18, 2023, 2:36 PM (GMT+2) – Yad L’Achim has reported a startling increase in the number of missionaries operating in Jerusalem, particularly in haredi neighborhoods in the center of the city.
Offensive flyers have been distributed in mailboxes in Geula, Mea She’arim, Zichron Moshe, Sarei Yisrael, Beis Yisrael, and surrounding areas.
In response, Yad L’Achim has dispatched activists to collect the dangerous material, post warning notices, and drive cars with loudspeakers alerting residents of the threat.
Officials say that Jerusalem continues to be a main draw for missionaries who arrive Israel with the specific goal of preaching to its Jewish residents. The past year has seen missionaries using public transportation and preaching to the passengers seated next to them.

“Overall, missionaries have been taking advantage of the fear and uncertainty created by the Gaza war to hunt Jewish souls,” Yad L’Achim warned.
Just last week, Yad L’Achim revealed that the missionaries are targeting soldiers and Jews who have been forced to leave their homes in the south and north. International missionary organizations surreptitiously preach to Jews as part of a “humanitarian aid” campaign.
“Yad L’Achim calls on the pubic to remain vigilant, and asks anyone who comes into contact with missionaries or who is interested in receiving information about them to call the organization’s emergency hotline at *9234, 24 hours a day,” the organization said.

Ben Gvir on Gaza aid: Changing policy without Cabinet discussion is unacceptable Hezki Baruch
Minister Itamar Ben Gvir blasts decision to approve the entry of trucks of humanitarian aid into Gaza through the Kerem Shalom crossing.
Dec 18, 2023, 12:07 AM (GMT+2) – Minister Itamar Ben Gvir, during the Cabinet meeting on Sunday, attacked the decision to approve the entry of trucks carrying humanitarian aid into Gaza through the Kerem Shalom crossing, and also stated that he opposed it.
He questioned the Prime Minister as to why it was urgent for him to hold the vote on Friday afternoon, right before the start of Shabbat, and in an expedited manner.
“I don’t understand how is it that, on Friday afternoon, they send messages about the vote, apparently someone was hoping that one of the members of the cabinet was taking an afternoon nap,” said Ben Gvir. Minister Ofir Akunis replied: “Were you napping?” To which Ben Gvir said, “I’ve been sleeping three hours a night since the beginning of the war.”
Ben Gvir continued his criticism of the decision, saying, “It is not acceptable to suddenly change policy without holding a discussion in the Cabinet. We have a large increase in the number of deaths, we have a large increase in the number of injured, and in my opinion, this is completely consistent with the amounts of fuel and humanitarian aid entering the Gaza Strip. How can there be such irresponsibility? Deciding on the opening of the Kerem Shalom crossing without there being an in-depth discussion in the Cabinet beforehand. My position was clear and known, I opposed it from the very beginning. I think that we should not bring them humanitarian aid, until we receive aid for our hostages. But in any case, why prevent a discussion on this in the Cabinet?”
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu replied, “The Americans helped us bring 80 hostages instead of 50 hostages in the deal. And in return, we are bringing in 200 trucks a day. It is impossible to bring them all through the Rafah crossing, so in order to be able to fulfill our end of the bargain, we need to open the Kerem Shalom crossing.”

Earlier on Sunday, Ben Gvir wrote a letter to the head of the National Security Council, Tzachi Hanegbi, in which he requested that the Political-Security Cabinet convene to discuss the decision.
“In the last few days, fundamental decisions were made, which constitute a policy change of the Cabinet, without any discussion and by way of a telephone referendum only or even without any vote. Thus, on Friday afternoon it was decided in a telephone referendum only to open the Kerem Shalom crossing for goods for our enemy, and today I learned that there is a claim that 180 million shekels were transferred from the north of the Gaza Strip to the south, without any vote about it,” the minister wrote.

Dec 18, 2023, 2:17 PM (GMT+2) – MK Danny Danon (Likud) slammed the government’s decision to pass additional aid to Gaza through the Kerem Shalom Crossing.
In an interview with 103 FM Radio, Danon called to increase the pressure on Hamas – even at the cost of conflict with the US.
“Trucks entering Gaza through Kerem Shalom is symbolic, wrong, and a mistake,” he told the radio station.

“It is illogical that we should pass humanitarian aid, when even the agreement which we signed for visits from the Red Cross and the passage of testimonies regarding hostages who are still alive are things which we have not received to this day.
He emphasized, “We must apply more force and be less humanitarian. [Emphasis added] Only our determination will bring about the return of our captives, and a victory.”

Black Lives Don’t Matter to Hamas. South First Responders – Telegram https://t.me/southfirstresponders/476
Joshua Mollel, a 21 year old student from Tanzania, East Africa, came to Israel on an agricultural exchange program.
This week, it was confirmed that he was murdered at the hands of Hamas, and that his body is still being held in Gaza by the terrorists.
Soon we will expose previously unseen footage of his murder on October 7th.
We warn you that what you are about to see is extremely graphic.
On October 7th, Hamas terrorists filmed themselves beating and abusing Joshua in his final moments, in the vicinity of Kibbutz Nahal Oz, the site of one of the most horrific massacres of that day.
They stabbed Joshua with a kitchen knife. They stepped on his chest. And then, while shouting Allahu Akbar, sprayed bullets into his body at point blank range.
To Hamas, Black Lives Don’t Matter.
Jewish Lives Don’t Matter.
Christian, Muslim, Druze, Hindu, and Buddist Lives Don’t Matter.
Palestinian Lives Certainly Don’t Matter.
For Hamas, Life Itself Doesn’t Matter.
WATCH: How Hamas Built its ‘Gaza Metro’ Terror Tunnels [Videos] By Hana Levi Julian
6 Tevet 5784 – December 17, 2023 – The IDF released for publication on Sunday a Hamas video seized during Israeli military operations that documents the construction of the terror organization’s largest Gaza tunnel uncovered so far.
The tunnel was secured by IDF forces a few weeks ago, as part of the IDF’s defensive efforts to restore security to the area, the IDF said. “There is no evidence that the tunnel extends into Israel from the Gaza Strip.”
Over the past few weeks, IDF ground forces and combat engineering forces from the Gaza Division, including soldiers from the Yahalom Unit have been conducting an extensive operation against Hamas’ terror tunnels. The unit leverages advanced technological capabilities to expose, assess, secure and dismantle Hamas terrorist tunnels.
A Quarter Mile from Erez Crossing
The tunnel, part of the “Gaza Metro” network beneath the surface of the enclave, was discovered just 400 meters (a quarter mile) from to the Erez border crossing, in the northern area of the Gaza Strip. It stretches about four kilometers long (2.5 miles) and about 50 meters (164 feet) deep. In fact, it is so big that it can accommodate the movement of vehicles. The tunnel shaft at

Shockingly Good: Bill Maher Throws Down – Explains Reality of the Genocidal “From the River to the Sea” Chant [(Great) Video 8:13] By Margaret Flavin
Dec. 16, 2023 2:00 pm – Bill Maher has had strong words in the aftermath of the Hamas terrorist attacks on October 7 in Israel that are becoming more and more out of step with the radical leftists in the Democrat party.
In a recent episode, he took a swipe at former President Obama for comments he made this week about the Israel-Hamas war and shared his disappointment in the former President’s “moral equivalency.”
He has slammed liberals for defending Hamas and the rise of anti-semitism among young people.
He lambasted elite colleges for their “indoctrination into a stew of bad ideas” and the suppression of free speech.
In November, he even took the bold move, at least within his own party, of defending Western civilization.
On Friday’s episode of Real Time with Bill Maher, Maher shared his new rule on the genocidal “From the River to the Sea” chant favored by leftists.
Even more surprising than Maher’s take is the audience’s enthusiastic applause and approval at his remarks.
