WATCH: “Gali Won’t Decide!” Tens Of Thousands Attend Right-Wing Protest Outside Supreme Court [VIDEOS]
June 5, 2025 Yeshiva World News
Poster announcing mass right-wing rally in front of the Supreme Court scheduled for June 5, 2025.
Tens of thousands of right-wing supporters attended a rally protesting against the overreach of the Supreme Court and Attorney-General Gali Baharav-Miara on Thursday.
The protest was held outside the Supreme Court building in Jerusalem.
Participants carried signs stating, among others, “A Jewish state wins over the Deep State” and “No to the rule of the Supreme Court!” and “The people are sovereign.”
At one point, the crowd chanted again and again, “Gali will not decide!” referring to the Attorney General, Gali Baharav-Miara.
Among the speakers at the rally were Finance Minister Betzalel Smotrich, Justice Minister Yariv Levin, National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, Communications Minister Shlomo Karhi, Education Minister Yoav Kisch, Diaspora Affairs Minister Amichai Chikli, the chairman of the Knesset’s Constitution Committee, Simcha Rothman, Tzvika Mor, the father of Eitan, who is being held hostage in Gaza, and several bereaved parents whose children fell in Gaza.
Smotrich said in his speech, “We will not allow anyone to take our democracy from us and strip us of authority. There are those who think they can take the reins from the citizens of Israel. There are those who believe that they are the supreme parliament, above the will of the people – that they will decide who will head the Shin Bet, who will be the Civil Service Commissioner, and even who will be the Prime Minister.”
“And I ask you: are you willing to let someone decide for you? Will you agree that someone who is not an elected official will determine who will lead your security system? Who will head the critical services of the country? And who will head the government? This is simply infeasible. The prime minister and the government are not only allowed to decide – they are obligated to decide. Because they are the public’s messengers. And what they decide – that’s what you decided in the last elections. I look at you, at the tens of thousands, at this wonderful nation, and I say to you: you are sovereign. The will of the people will not be dictated to us from above. Our choice will not be imposed on us. You will decide!”
The Spoils of War [51:09] CHANANYA WEISSMAN
The Gaza “war” is a scam, and you’re the sucker — regardless of who you root for
JUN 05, 2025 – In this month’s Amalek and Erev Rav program we took a deeper look at the money laundering operations more commonly known as humanitarian aid to Gaza and the never-ending “war” between Israel and Hamas.
This should be a game-changer, even for thoroughly brainwashed people on either side of the color war aisle.
If someone you care about is “serving” in the IDF, you should be aware of this.
If you are donating money to buy stuff for the soldiers, you should be aware of this.
If you are a citizen of Israel, and by definition you’re paying a pound of flesh in taxes, you should be aware of this.
If you’re a Jew-hater who is donating money to supposedly feed the poor, suffering children in Gaza, you should pause and reflect, too, before you continue blaming The Jews ™ for everything anyway.

June 5, 2025 Jewish Breaking News
The group is led by Yasser Abu Shabab, a figure from a prominent clan in southern Gaza. According to defense sources, the firearms provided to Abu Shabab’s faction include weapons originally confiscated from Hamas during the ongoing conflict.
This militia operates primarily in Rafah, a region currently under Israeli military oversight. Hamas recently released footage claiming to show an attack on members of this group.
Abu Shabab insists his fighters are tasked with protecting humanitarian aid convoys entering the Strip. However, there are allegations that his men have been involved in looting those same supplies.
The operation to supply arms to this militia was not brought before Israel’s full security cabinet. Instead, the initiative was reportedly spearheaded by select Israeli security agencies and received direct approval from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, defense officials say.

Inadvertent Consequences or Deliberate Policy? Logically Deciphering Israel’s Policy Paradox Mordechai Sones
To reconcile the most contradictions in Israeli policy towards Gaza, one is compelled to consider that the outcomes, however tragic, may be less about error and more about a sustained pursuit of unstated, long-term strategic objectives
June 5, 2025 Jewish Home
Introduction: The Search for Coherence in Paradoxical Policy
The analysis of Israeli policy towards the Gaza Strip presents a series of perplexing strategic paradoxes.
Contents
Introduction: The Search for Coherence in Paradoxical Policy
Apparent Strategic Paradoxes and Contradictions in Israeli Policy
Paradox 1: Military Confrontation vs. Financial Enablement of Hamas
Paradox 2: Preventing Palestinian Statehood vs. Empowering Hamas as a Counterweight
Paradox 3: The Evolution of “Parapolitics” – Unintended Blowback vs. Controlled Orchestration
Comparative Analysis: Reconciling the Contradictions
On one hand, Israel frequently engages in significant military operations aimed at dismantling Hamas’s capabilities and infrastructure. On the other hand, there is substantial evidence, including statements from former and current officials, of Israel facilitating financial aid to the Hamas-run government and even cultivating its precursors.
These seemingly contradictory actions challenge conventional interpretations and lead to two plausible, yet fundamentally different, analytical premises:
- The Inadvertent Outcomes Premise: This perspective assumes that Israeli policies are primarily driven by publicly stated security goals and humanitarian concerns. Negative outcomes, such as strengthening Hamas or perpetuating conflict, are viewed as inadvertent consequences, unforeseen side effects, or results of misguided tactical decisions—essentially, well-meaning but flawed execution.
- The Deliberate Strategy Premise: This alternative perspective posits that seemingly contradictory actions are, in fact, deliberate components of a grander, unstated strategic design. Outcomes that appear negative in the short term for stated goals might be considered beneficial for deeper, long-term objectives, potentially aligning with broader geopolitical or globalist agendas. This premise suggests a calculated divergence between rhetoric and actual policy.
As we operate on the principle that genuine contradictions do not exist in reality, and that a perceived contradiction necessitates a re-examination of one’s underlying premises, this analysis aims to compare these two perspectives. Our objective is to determine which premise offers a more logical explanation by reconciling the most observed paradoxes within Israeli policy in Gaza, thereby providing a more coherent understanding of the strategic landscape.
Apparent Strategic Paradoxes and Contradictions in Israeli Policy
Several key aspects of Israeli policy towards Gaza exhibit apparent contradictions when viewed through a conventional lens.
Paradox 1: Military Confrontation vs. Financial Enablement of Hamas
The Contradiction: Israel repeatedly launches large-scale military operations (e.g., Cast Lead, Protective Edge, Guardian of the Walls, Iron Swords) with stated goals of dismantling Hamas’s military capabilities, eradicating its infrastructure, and restoring deterrence. Concurrently, particularly from 2014 onwards, Israel explicitly approved and facilitated substantial Qatari financial aid, often in cash, directly to the Hamas-run government in Gaza. This aid, even if ostensibly for humanitarian purposes, has been widely criticized for its fungibility, enabling Hamas to maintain administrative control and allegedly freeing up its own resources for military buildup.
- Explanation by the Inadvertent Outcomes Premise: From this perspective, the facilitation of Qatari aid was primarily a humanitarian necessity, aimed at preventing a complete collapse of Gaza’s civilian infrastructure and avoiding a wider humanitarian catastrophe. The fungibility of funds, leading to Hamas’s military strengthening, is viewed as an unforeseen or unavoidable negative side effect—a misguided tactical compromise to prevent an even worse humanitarian or security situation. The military operations, then, are genuine attempts to counter the threat that Hamas inadvertently grew into, despite the aid. This would suggest a continuous cycle of miscalculation where short-term humanitarian relief inadvertently contributes to long-term military challenges.
- Explanation by the Deliberate Strategy Premise: This premise interprets the facilitation of Qatari aid as a deliberate tool within a broader strategy of “managed instability” or “divide and rule.” By allowing Hamas to retain administrative control through financial support, Israel ensures the continued political fragmentation of Gaza and Judea and Samaria. The “fungibility” is not unforeseen; it’s an accepted trade-off for maintaining Hamas’s functionality as a governing entity. The military operations, therefore, are not necessarily failures of deterrence, but calibrated interventions designed to periodically degrade Hamas’s capabilities when they exceed a tolerable threshold, re-establish deterrence, and validate ongoing security expenditures, all while preserving Hamas’s long-term administrative role that serves the fragmentation objective. This suggests a calculated dance where both military pressure and financial enablement serve a single, albeit unstated, overarching strategic goal.
Paradox 2: Preventing Palestinian Statehood vs. Empowering Hamas as a Counterweight
The Contradiction: A consistently claimed goal of various Israeli governments has been to prevent the establishment of a unified Palestinian state, particularly one led by the Palestinian Authority (PA). Simultaneously, Israel has engaged in policies that have demonstrably strengthened Hamas, an organization vehemently opposed to the PA, and which explicitly rejects Israel’s existence. Prime Minister Netanyahu’s statement, “Anyone who wants to prevent the establishment of a Palestinian state needs to support strengthening Hamas,” [Emphasis added] encapsulates this apparent contradiction.
- Explanation by the Inadvertent Outcomes Premise: This perspective would argue that the empowerment of Hamas was an unintended consequence of attempts to manage the Gaza Strip (e.g., through humanitarian aid) or a series of tactical errors in dealing with political dynamics. The opposition to a unified Palestinian state is a separate, long-standing policy, and the inadvertent strengthening of Hamas simply presented another difficult challenge in that pursuit. The belief might have been that Hamas, being an Islamic organization, could never genuinely govern, and its temporary empowerment was a lesser evil compared to a unified, internationally recognized Palestinian state. This implies a continuous series of misjudgments about the impact of empowering one non-state actor to counter another.
- Explanation by the Deliberate Strategy Premise: From this viewpoint, empowering Hamas was a direct and intentional strategy to prevent Palestinian unity and statehood. By ensuring a powerful, alternative center of Palestinian authority in Gaza (Hamas) that is hostile to the PA, Israel effectively maintains the internal division necessary to argue against a unified Palestinian state. Hamas, despite its extremist ideology, serves as a functional counterweight, a “controlled opposition” that fulfills the strategic objective of fragmentation. This is not a contradiction, but a coherent implementation of a “divide and rule” policy, where Hamas’s existence as a powerful, anti-PA entity is explicitly desired to derail the prospect of a unified, internationally recognized Palestinian state.
Paradox 3: The Evolution of “Parapolitics” – Unintended Blowback vs. Controlled Orchestration
The Contradiction: Historically, Israel explicitly supported Islamic groups in Gaza, including the precursor to Hamas, in the 1970s and 80s, to counter the PLO. These groups later evolved into Hamas, a formidable armed adversary. This appears to be a classic case of “blowback,” where a covert operation outlives its original purpose and creates a hostile force.
- Explanation by the Inadvertent Outcomes Premise: This perspective would strongly emphasize the “blowback” aspect. Israel genuinely miscalculated the long-term trajectory of these Islamic groups, failing to foresee their eventual radicalization and transformation into an armed resistance movement. The initial support was a tactical error that led to an unintended and disastrous consequence, where a temporary tool became a persistent, severe threat. This suggests a profound and recurring inability to predict the long-term effects of strategic interventions.
- Explanation by the Deliberate Strategy Premise: This premise re-interprets the evolution of parapolitics as a calculated and controlled orchestration. The initial support for Islamic groups was a deliberate means to fragment Palestinian political power, primarily to undermine the PLO. The subsequent radicalization and armed emergence of Hamas was an accepted and functional outcome within a grander scheme. The existence of a hostile, but ideologically distinct, actor in Gaza (Hamas) provides a persistent justification for ongoing Israeli security measures. October 7th is not a failure, but an acceptable cost for maintaining a specific, fragmented geopolitical status quo. This suggests that the “loss of control” was a managed aspect, rather than a genuine strategic defeat.
Comparative Analysis: Reconciling the Contradictions
When examining these apparent contradictions through the lens of both premises, the Deliberate Strategy Premise appears to reconcile more inconsistencies and offer a more parsimonious explanation for the observed patterns of Israeli policy in Gaza.
The Inadvertent Outcomes Premise requires one to accept a continuous series of recurring miscalculations, unforeseen consequences, and repeated strategic errors over decades. For instance, the constant pattern of fighting Hamas militarily while enabling its financial sustenance would imply that Israeli decision-makers repeatedly failed to understand the fungibility of money or the long-term impact of their aid policies. Similarly, the “blowback” of parapolitics would suggest a persistent inability to learn from past mistakes regarding the consequences of fostering non-state actors. This perspective, while giving the benefit of the doubt to intent, struggles to explain the consistency of seemingly contradictory actions without resorting to a narrative of perpetual strategic incompetence. If a premise is repeatedly contradicted by observed outcomes, it suggests the premise itself is flawed.
In contrast, the Deliberate Strategy Premise integrates these “contradictions” as logical components of a coherent (though morally indefensible) long-term plan.
- Military confrontation and financial enablement are not contradictory but rather two sides of a coin designed to manage a controlled threat while simultaneously achieving the goal of political fragmentation. Aid ensures administrative stability, while military action periodically degrades capabilities to prevent an existential threat and maintain deterrence.
- Claiming to prevent statehood while empowering Hamas becomes a direct, functional strategy. Hamas, as an alternative to the PA, serves as the ideal counterweight.
- The evolution of parapolitics from initial support to adversarial relations is viewed as the successful establishment of a distinct, permanent, and manageable counter-entity within the theater, the very “deep politics” that the initial covert actions were intended to cultivate.
From the perspective that contradictions signal a faulty premise, the “Deliberate Strategy Premise” provides a more consistent internal logic. It transforms what appear as repeated “failures” or “miscalculations” into functional elements of an overarching, unstated strategy. While this premise is difficult to prove definitively due to the covert nature of such grand designs and the curated public narratives, it offers a more compelling explanation for the enduring patterns of seemingly contradictory policies. It shifts the burden of explanation from repeated inadvertent errors to a single, consistent, albeit unacknowledged, strategic objective.
Conclusion
The analysis of Israeli operations in Gaza, when viewed through the principle that contradictions point to flawed premises, suggests that the “Deliberate Strategy Premise” offers a more credible framework for understanding the complex realities on the ground. The apparent paradoxes of fighting Hamas while enabling its financial sustenance, and “preventing Palestinian statehood” while empowering a counterweight like Hamas, are more readily reconciled as integrated components of a calculated, long-term approach.
This perspective implies that policies are not simply reactions to unforeseen circumstances but are proactive measures designed to achieve specific geopolitical configurations, even if these involve managed conflict, internal fragmentation, and death of innocents. While the “Inadvertent Outcomes Premise” relies on a narrative of repeated tactical errors and unexpected blowback, the “Deliberate Strategy Premise” interprets these as the functional and accepted consequences of a coherent, albeit morally indefensible, strategic design.
Therefore, to reconcile the most contradictions in Israeli policy towards Gaza, one is compelled to consider that the outcomes, however tragic, may be less about error and more about a sustained pursuit of unstated, long-term strategic objectives.

Reconciling the Contradiction: Which Perspective is More Logical?
Departing from the premise that negative outcomes were inadvertent, this report explores the possibility that policies seemingly detrimental to stated Israeli security goals were, in fact, deliberate components of a grander, unstated strategic design. This perspective acknowledges that nations may pursue long-term strategies whose benefits are realized across generations, and that public narratives, influenced by media access to figures of authority, may obscure underlying intentions.
The re-examination suggests that the cultivation of Hamas’s precursor, and later the facilitation of Qatari financial aid, could be interpreted not as strategic miscalculations, but as controlled mechanisms to maintain a specific, manageable level of fragmentation within the political landscape. This fragmentation, while appearing to fuel conflict, may be intended to prevent outcomes potentially disruptive to broader regional or global strategic interests.
Qatari financial aid, often delivered in cash and with Israeli approval, may be a tool of influence and control, rather than solely humanitarian assistance. Its fungibility, previously framed as an unintended consequence, is now viewed as an acceptable, or even desired, feature that maintains a degree of dependency and predictability in the Gaza Strip.
The recurring cycles of military operations are considered not as failures of deterrence, but as necessary phases that recalibrate power dynamics, justify ongoing security expenditures, and reinforce specific geopolitical conditions that serve the overarching, unstated strategy. The tragic human and material costs, while publicly lamented, may be viewed through this lens as acceptable trade-offs within a colder, long-term strategic calculus.
Ultimately, this analysis posits that the observed “reality gap” between Israeli war rhetoric and policy may not stem from “well-meaning buffoonery,” but from a calculated divergence designed to manage public perception while pursuing deeper, less transparent objectives that align with a broader, globalist, strategic framework.
Introduction: Re-evaluating Intent in Geopolitical Outcomes
The persistent cycles of conflict in the Gaza Strip, characterized by recurring Israeli military operations and the controversial flow of Qatari funds, invite a re-evaluation of conventional analytical premises.
Is Israel on the cusp of civil war? Dr. Martin Sherman
The only way to prevent a civil war in Israel is to acknowledge its impending outbreak, so that steps can be taken to forestall it.
Jun 4, 2025 Israel National News – Israel may be on the brink of civil war. An irreconcilable rift is beginning to open up between rival segments of Israeli society, which no amount of unilateral goodwill can amicably bridge. The tectonic fault lines, threatening to split the nation’s societal fabric asunder, center on Benjamin Netanyahu’s tenacious hold on power [after being elected democratically by a landslide], despite multiple attempts to pry it loose.
Weaponizing the legal system
Having seemingly despaired of the possibility of defeating him at the polls, his adversaries have turned—more clumsily than not—to weaponising the legal system as a means of realizing their political goals.
This precipitated the maladroitly concocted indictments against Netanyahu, in which. whenever a prosecution witness took the stand, his/her testimony ended up strengthening the defense!
Indeed, after hearing the prosecution’s case, the judges (even before the testimony of any defense witness), in a rare moment of judicial lucidity, warned the prosecutors that they had not made their case on the corruption charges against Netanyahu, and suggested they be dropped. The suggestion was obdurately ignored, apparently in the desperate hope that the defense witnesses would provide the proof that the prosecution witnesses failed to do. Go figure!
Thus, goaded by their incandescent anti-Bibi enmity, the people, who have done the most to erode public trust in the legal system in general and the judiciary in particular, are the government jurists in general and the Justices in particular. Nothing could underscore this more than the recent High Court decision regarding the dismissal of Ronen Bar, the current head of Israel’s Internal Security Service (ISS, widely known as the Shabak). Indeed, it was so patently absurd as to make it almost comical. As an unvarnished attempt to smother common sense with legalistic gobbledygook, it made a caricature of the judicial process.
Undisputed failure insufficient grounds for dismissal?
Arguably, the most ludicrous element in the verdict was the assertion that there was not “an adequate factual foundation” for the dismissal. This is an astounding claim, itself devoid of any “factual foundation”. Indeed, it is difficult to conceive of anything more counterfactual. After all, what could comprise a more valid factual foundation for Bar’s dismissal than his undisputed failure to give the alert over the impending Hamas assault on October 7th, his equally abysmal failure to prepare for it and to respond to it adequately once it occurred? In fact, if the government is to be faulted over the Bar’s removal, it should be over why it took so long to do so.
Likewise, the court’s assertion that the PM could not be involved in the dismissal decision since he was in a position of a “conflict of interest”—because two associates of his were being investigated on flimsy charges of having dealings with Qatar, makes little sense. Unless, of course, the intention is to pave the way for disqualifying the PM from future decisions. For, the clear significance of this verdict is that all it takes to preclude the PM from taking part in any future decisions, is to implicate some of his associates—even on the most implausible grounds—in a trumped-up investigation expressly designed for that very purpose. (A look at the dates of the Bar dismissal and the Qatar allegations is all that is needed, ed.)
The onset of dystopia?
Interestingly, the clear—and erroneous—implication of the court’s ruling is that ongoing Shabak investigations come to a shuddering halt whenever the Director’s term ends, and a successor is appointed. Otherwise, why would any successor be presumed to pursue suspicions of Qatar-related malfeasance less vigorously than the current Director? Indeed, given his past failures, why would the current Director be considered essential to the Qatar investigation—unless his overt anti-Netanyahu proclivities are deemed an overriding consideration??
Sadly, it appears that enmity towards Netanyahu has pushed his antagonists to the brink of insanity and, in some cases, arguably beyond. Likewise, it has propelled Israeli society to the brink of a dystopian reality, and in some cases, arguably beyond.
Thus, enraged and exasperated by Netanyahu’s remarkable ability to withstand their continued and concerted efforts to remove him from office, his adversaries—including has-been former PMs, defense ministers, IDF Chiefs-of-Staff, heads of intelligence services—have committed acts of unmistakable sedition and treason, openly urging members of the military not to serve [and villifying IDF soldiers in the international arena, ed.]—thereby conveying a message of national disarray and division, emboldening the country’s enemies, bent on its destruction.
With regard to the onset of dystopia, it should be noted that what once was the socio-political divide between Left and Right in Israel has been largely replaced by a schism, separating the fervent anti-Bibi zealots from those who are not. Although these dividing lines are not identical, they do largely overlie and overlap each other. Accordingly, keeping this minor discrepancy in mind, I will, for the sake of semantic convenience, retain referring to the rivalrous factions as “Left” and “Right.”
Rift unbridgeable by rational reasoning
With this methodological/linguistic caveat behind us, it is important to note that those on the “Right” generally seem unable to gauge the depth and intensity of the hostility and opprobrium their political rivals on the “Left” feel for them. Naively, those on the “Right” believe that what separates them from their countrymen on the “Left” is a difference of opinion (albeit profound) that, potentially, can be bridged (albeit with difficulty).
Sadly, this is not the case.
The rupture is not one that can be bridged by rational reasoning or argument—not even by bitter experience that unequivocally demonstrates how unfounded their positions are. Indeed, to a large degree, many on the “Left” do not have an opinion as such, but rather an ambition, and to fulfill that ambition, they are willing to adopt any opinion—as well as its diametric opposite—even if it harms the country – so long as it can be used to malign their opponents on the “Right”.
Thus, as the socio-political agenda of the “Left” gradually drifted further and further away from the harsh realities of the Middle East, its electoral constituency shrank accordingly. However, this was not something the “Left” found particularly perturbing. For as long as they controlled the judiciary (and to a great degree, the mainstream media), they still could determine much of the tenor of the socio-political realities prevailing in the country.
Understanding the “Left’s” incandescent fury
This is the reason for the near apoplectic reaction to the attempted judicial reform in early 2023—particularly the system of appointing judges. For, this directly impacted the epicenter of the “Left’s” power. Thus, given its diminishing electoral appeal and the unlikely prospect of it ever regaining power via the ballot box, the “Left” responded with a combination of horror and fury that drove it to unprecedented extremes—including reinventing, even inverting, the use of language, which exposed its true beliefs regarding the imperatives of political life in Israel.
Accordingly, as soon as then-newly elected Justice Minister Yariv Levin presented his initiative to the public, they immediately branded it as a “Revolution”, a term usually reserved for extra-parliamentary opposition to an incumbent government, not to non-extreme policy proposals from such governments, particularly lawfully elected ones. Indeed, the use of the term seems to indicate that they believe that the “Left” is the truly ordained leader of the country, and the incumbent government is merely an impudent usurper, swept to unmerited positions of power by unworthy “plebs”, otherwise known as “Bibists” (reminiscent of “Baboons”?)
Thus, in their eyes, the judicial reform is an insufferable challenge to the established order and to the true ruling class—hence a “revolution”.
Borderline sedition
Furthermore, the reform’s proposal, that decisions should be transferred from unelected, unaccountable forums to elected, accountable forums, makes the “Left’s” accusation that the measure is somehow “undemocratic”, manifestly ridiculous. After all, it is palpably absurd to claim that a system, in which a narrow, unelected forum of around a dozen appointed officials, with no accountability to the public, has the ultimate authority on matters of vital national importance, is more democratic than one in which that authority is vested in the hands of over 60 elected parliamentarians, regularly answerable to the public.
Accordingly, the Bibi-phobic “Left” have created a dystopian-like reality in Israel, where, just as in Orwellian Newspeak, language is manipulated and distorted to serve political purposes. Thus, words take on meaning antithetically opposite to their commonly used sense. In Orwell’s 1984 dystopia, “war” was “peace”; “freedom” was “slavery” and so on. In the emerging Israeli dystopia, “dictatorship” is “democracy”; “revolution” is “elected government policy”; “entitlement” is “patriotism”; and “sedition” is “loyalty”.
Indeed, it is a sense of entitlement, not of patriotism, that drives the anti-Bibi “Left”. It reflects a selective loyalty to Israel, in which borderline sedition, purposefully undermining the nation’s security, economy and international standing, is preferable to accepting the victory of political rivals.
Time to gird our loins
There is a popular belief that, in Israel, civil war is not possible because a war requires two opposing sides to participate in it, and the “Right’ will always refrain from a fratricidal conflict against fellow-Jews—as was the case when Menachem Begin restrained his followers from the responding to the lethal sinking of the Altalena off the coast of Tel Aviv by forces under the left-leaning David Ben Gurion.
Sadly, today this belief has been overtaken by events and is no longer valid. The gravity of the Bibi-phobic “Left’s” actions is such that it can no longer be condoned. (And the recently aroused activism of newly bereaved parents who refuse to condone the Left’s attitude towards IDF soldiers has made it even less valid, ed.) Action against them must be taken, lest the very bedrock on which the nation is founded be irreparably eroded. Indeed, it is clear that today, the “Left” is determined to prevent the government from making any significant decisions in the future—by means of torturously concocted quasi-legal impediments.
No amount of rational reasoning will be of any avail. A confrontation is both unavoidable and imperative. A line must be drawn in the sand. It must be made indelibly clear to the anti-Bibi “Left” that there are limits to political rivalry, which cannot be breached. Sedition in the guise of political dissent will not be brooked, and the State apparatus will be mobilized to confront, contain, and counteract any such instances.
Such confrontation cannot, and must not, be delayed. Leniency today will only compound the problem—and the peril—tomorrow.
Sadly, the time to gird our loins is now!

New Rules: Justice Minister pushes new process for dismissing AG
Justice Minister Yariv Levin has recently submitted a proposal aiming to revise the procedure for removing the Attorney General.
Jun 4, 2025 Israel National News – Justice Minister Yariv Levin has recently submitted a proposal to be discussed at the next cabinet meeting, aiming to revise the procedure for removing the Attorney General. The proposed changes would allow the government to dismiss the Attorney General in cases of what it deems a serious breakdown of trust.
Under the plan, the current ministerial committee would conduct a hearing. If it concludes that valid grounds for dismissal exist, it would then present its recommendation to the full government.
The most notable change in the proposal is a new provision allowing the government to dismiss the Attorney General with a 75% majority. The document cites “an unprecedented crisis between the government and the Attorney General,” arguing that this crisis renders the standard consultation process redundant.
The proposal emerges amid growing tensions between the government and Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara, with the government having previously issued a unanimous declaration of no confidence in her. Proponents claim this breakdown has hindered the government’s functioning, particularly during a time of war and heightened security concerns, when close coordination between legal and executive bodies is seen as critical.
The proposal argues that, under these strained circumstances, the traditional consultation process with the selection committee is no longer effective.
It also emphasizes the need for the government to be able to act swiftly on the matter and to work with an Attorney General who enjoys the trust of the cabinet and facilitates effective collaboration.
National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir welcomed the proposal, saying: “Advancing the process of dismissing Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara is a crucial step toward dismantling the deep state in Israel. For over two years, she has obstructed nearly every initiative I’ve put forward in my ministry.”
He praised Minister Levin for taking action, adding, “This is how things function in democratic countries—the elected officials decide policy, not unelected bureaucrats.”

⚠️ The United States has submitted a nuclear deal proposal to Iran that would permit limited, low-level uranium enrichment on Iranian soil for a period yet to be determined. As part of the agreement, Iran would be required to reduce its enrichment level to 3% immediately after signing. The duration of this limit would be finalized during upcoming negotiations.
President Trump made his position clear, stating: “Under our potential agreement, we will not allow any uranium enrichment.” Despite this condition, Tehran appears poised to reject the offer.
A senior Iranian diplomat told Reuters that Iran is preparing a negative response to the U.S. proposal, calling it “completely one-sided.” The proposal had been delivered to Tehran a few days ago, and Iranian officials are now drafting a formal response that may amount to an outright rejection.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt commented on Tuesday that Special Envoy Witkoff had delivered a detailed and reasonable proposal. She emphasized the administration’s expectation, stating: “The President hopes they will accept. If not, they will face grave consequences, as the President himself has reiterated.”
🔹Iran is reinforcing its air defense systems as its military prepares for the potential of an Israeli or U.S. strike targeting Tehran’s nuclear infrastructure. This preparation comes amid growing uncertainty over the future of negotiations regarding Iran’s uranium enrichment program. Western intelligence reports and satellite imagery reviewed by defense analysts reveal that Iran has repositioned several surface-to-air missile systems—most notably the Russian-made S-300—around its key nuclear facilities, including the Natanz and Fordow sites. These strategic redeployments suggest Tehran is bracing for the possibility of a military confrontation should diplomatic talks fail.
🎗️ About a month ago, a U.S. official arrived in Baghdad with several former diplomats to initiate indirect negotiations with Iranian representatives and Kata’ib Hezbollah—the Iran-backed militia holding Israeli-Russian researcher Elizabeth Tsurkov. The goal of the talks was to secure her release.
Despite the effort, no breakthrough has been reached. The main obstacle is the U.S. government’s opposition to releasing an Iranian citizen currently imprisoned in Iraq. That individual is being held for the murder of American citizen Stephen Troell in Baghdad. This demand from the Iranian side remains a sticking point, preventing progress in the negotiations.
🔹Lebanese Foreign Minister Youssef Rajji made it clear to Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi that all coordination between Lebanon and Iran must go through the official Lebanese state, not Hezbollah. He stressed that Lebanon will not receive any international reconstruction funds unless Hezbollah is disarmed. In response, Araghchi reiterated Iran’s stance, stating that “disarming Hezbollah is a Lebanese decision,” distancing Tehran from taking responsibility or action on the matter.

🎯 In a press conference, IDF Spokesman Brig. Gen. Effie Defrin revealed that the Palestinian terrorists who planted the roadside bombs that killed three Israeli soldiers in northern Gaza’s Jabalia operated from a tunnel hidden within a partially demolished building. “The terrorists set out from a tunnel shaft in a building and planted the explosive devices. This is an active tunnel that is used for terror,” he said. The tunnel entrance was near a main route, and the structure housing it, like many others in Gaza, was used for military purposes. Defrin emphasized that these buildings are legitimate military targets: “Nearly every other building is booby-trapped and contains a tunnel entrance. We are demolishing these homes, not for the sake of destroying. Every building that is destroyed posed an operational threat, and could harm our forces.”
Defrin also stated that Hamas is steadily losing control over Gaza. He attributed this shift to continued IDF pressure and a newly implemented humanitarian aid distribution system that bypasses Hamas. According to him, tens of thousands of food packages are now being handed directly to residents each day, weakening Hamas’s influence over aid control.
Addressing reports of alleged Israeli fire on civilians near aid distribution points in southern Gaza, Defrin firmly rejected the claims. “This is a totally false report. It is echoing Hamas propaganda,” he stated, accusing Hamas of spreading disinformation that some international media outlets adopt without verification. He acknowledged criticism over delays in IDF investigations but stressed the importance of accuracy: “We will not report information or details that are not true. Reliability is critical, even if it takes time.”
Responding to questions about Hamas’s claim that 27 people were killed during the aid incident, Defrin said the reported numbers are “exaggerated.” He clarified that IDF forces only fired warning shots and, based on their understanding, “they did not hit that many people.” The incident remains under investigation.
During the press conference held this evening, IDF Spokesman Brigadier General Effie Defrin presented a detailed map outlining the military’s ground operations across Gaza, marking the first public disclosure of such tactical positioning. The map shows that the Gaza Division is currently operating in Rafah, a key area in the south of the Strip. Simultaneously, the 36th and 98th Divisions are pushing into Khan Younis from both the south and east, intensifying pressure on Hamas strongholds.
Meanwhile, the 252nd Division is active in Gaza City and along the Netzarim Corridor, a strategic axis that has been central to cutting Hamas supply routes. In the north, the 162nd Division is engaged in fierce combat operations aimed at dismantling remaining terrorist infrastructure.
This disclosure underscores the IDF’s multi-front campaign strategy, showing broad territorial engagement as it continues its efforts to neutralize Hamas forces across the Strip.
🔹 Hamas has reportedly lost its grip on internal security in Gaza, according to Al-Hadath. With law and order disintegrating, looters are raiding homes and stealing humanitarian aid. The breakdown in control comes as extremist factions begin to reorganize in the area, taking advantage of the growing instability.
A significant factor behind this collapse is the assassination of senior Hamas commanders and operational teams, which has deeply fractured the organization’s leadership. Hamas has attempted to restore order by enlisting influential local family leaders, but these efforts have been largely ineffective.
As a result of both operational losses and financial distress, Hamas is now struggling to pay salaries to its members. The combination of leadership vacuum, internal chaos, and resurging militant groups underscores the growing collapse of Hamas’s control over Gaza.

Huge Step Forward on Jerusalem’s Temple Mount Takes Us 1 Step Closer to Jesus’ Return By Randy DeSoto
June 1, 2025 The Western Journal
An interesting development on Jerusalem’s Temple Mount could be a sign that the return of Jesus Christ may be sooner than later.
Shlomo Vile of Jewish News Syndicate recounted in an article last week that for most of the years since the Israeli Defense Force took Jerusalem and the Temple Mount during the Six-Day War in 1967, Jewish people had not been allowed to go there and pray.
It is the location where Abraham was prepared to offer up Isaac as a sacrifice, foreshadowing when God actually did so with the death of his Son, Jesus Christ, for the sins of the world.
It is also the site of the first and second Jewish temples. The First Temple housed the Ark of the Covenant, containing the stone-hewn Ten Commandments of God, dating back to Moses. The Babylonians destroyed it in 586 B.C.
The Romans sacked the Second Temple in A.D. 70. Among other claims to fame, it was the place where Jesus Christ often taught.
Today, the Temple Mount is the location of the Muslim-controlled Dome of the Rock, where the Prophet Muhammad is said to have been taken to heaven for an encounter with Allah, and the Al-Aqsa Mosque.
Vile shared in his JNS story that until recent years, Muslims and the Israeli government did not allow Jewish people to pray on the Temple Mount.
“Members of the Muslim guard, the Islamic Waqf, would accompany the groups of Jewish pilgrims and would watch our lips to make sure that we weren’t praying. The Israeli policemen also watched our lips and diligently enforced the prayer ban,” he wrote.
But the situation began to change following the murder of two Israeli police officers on the Mount in July 2017.
“Immediately afterwards, the Israeli police expelled the people who screamed and cursed at the Jews. They also became less diligent about watching our lips, and we were allowed to pray openly, as long as we prayed modestly and responded to police instructions,” Vile said.
He explained that after that, a small group of Jewish worshippers began going daily to the Temple Mount to pray, eventually communally, as the police continued to lessen restrictions.
“The latest and most dramatic step forward was this last Tisha B’Av, Aug. 12, 2024, when Jews were for the first time allowed to prostrate fully, face down, arms and legs extended,” Vile wrote.
“You can feel your heart pulsing against the earth, and as you pray, your lips are almost touching the pavement,” he added. “This is a whole new and fully embodied avenue of soul expression that has been closed to our Jewish souls for two thousand years. Prayer is called the service of the heart. Hishtachavaya (full prostration) is a service of the whole self.”
Vile concluded, “We are privileged to live in a generation that can once again serve God on the Temple Mount. Those who ‘go up’ to serve God there are especially privileged to play a central role in the biblical drama of restoring God’s Presence to Zion.”
Knesset Member Tzvi Sukkot recently raised the Israeli flag on the Temple Mount, and he also prayed there during a visit, according to Israel’s i24 News.
In a video posted on social media, according to a translation, he says, “When all security branches said, ‘If even one Jew prays (on Temple Mount) the Middle East will burn.’ And today, thousands of Jews prayed there, danced, sang, bowed, members of the Knesset bowed, we waved Israeli flags and nothing happened.”
All this could indicate that the political, and undoubtedly spiritual, climate is changing enough to allow the building of a Third Temple.
David Herzog — co-founder of The Glory Zone Ministries in Phoenix, Arizona, and who conducts regular outreaches in Israel — posted a video earlier this year in which he discussed how the decisions President Donald Trump is making regarding the Middle East could be paving the way for the rebuilding of the Third Temple.
There are certain rabbinic movements, including the one that runs the Temple Institute in Jerusalem, that want to see the Third Temple built on the Temple Mount.
Herzog shared that he recently spoke with a friend who has connections in the Knesset, as well as the Temple Institute, who confirmed that there are plans to start building the Third Temple by the end of 2025, with a completion date of somewhere between 2030 and 2032.
The Christian leader pointed out that many believers see Trump as a Persian King Cyrus-like leader, who famously helped the Jewish people return to their land after their Babylonian captivity and rebuild their temple. Peace reigned for a period of time, allowing this to happen. In 2018, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu likened Trump to King Cyrus.
Herzog argued that Trump’s agenda is peace and prosperity, with a desire to build on the Abraham Accords of his first term in the Middle East.
WATCH Prophetic Dream – The Third Temple & Donald Trump (David Herzog) [20:21]
“It looks like a short time of peace and prosperity — couple years — under the Trump administration, for Israel to fulfill end-time prophecy. That’s what looks like is happening,” he asserted.
And that will include rebuilding the temple, he believes.
Herzog pointed to Ezekiel 42:20, which suggests to him that the Third Temple could be built next to the Dome of the Rock without disturbing it, with a wall around it separating “the holy and the common” as the passage says. Jews being allowed to pray there now may indicate an opening for such a project.
The Bible teacher then pointed out the Temple must be in place before Christ’s return, because it is specifically mentioned in 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4, as well as Matthew 24:15-22, and Daniel 9:25-27 as a place the Antichrist will enter and desecrate.
“Things are happening fast,” Herzog said with respect to potential end-times events. “The temple, possibly this year – I don’t doubt anything, especially with this administration – by the end of this year it could be announced that they’re going to start building a Third Temple.”
Government and AG clash over funding Haaretz
On Sunday, the Attorney General issued a letter to government workers, instructing them to disregard the government’s unanimous resolution to cut funding to Haaretz.
June 1, 2025, 5:53 Israel National News – On Sunday, Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara issued a letter to government workers, instructing them to disregard the government’s unanimous resolution to cut funding to Haaretz.
Communications Minister Shlomo Karhi, who led the push to end public funding for Haaretz, responded: “This latest letter is not only a tiresome repetition of baseless arguments, it reflects an arrogant bureaucratic mindset that refuses to respect the will of the people,” he said.
Karhi criticized the Attorney General’s appeal to freedom of expression, claiming it was being used to justify continued financial support for a publication that, in his view, “incites against the government, slanders IDF soldiers, hurts bereaved families, and acts as a platform for our most dangerous adversaries, both foreign and domestic.”
He went on to accuse the Attorney General of overstepping her authority: “For the second time in three months, she has effectively nullified a government decision, as if she were the Prime Minister. In a democracy, it is the people who decide, not a small group of legal activists with hollow rulings. The government is elected; the officials are appointed. That hierarchy must be respected.”
Minister Karhi concluded: “We will continue to enforce the government’s decision. There will be no public funding for Haaretz in any form.”

IRAN CAPABLE OF PRODUCING 10 NUKE BOMBS: Netanyahu Releases Rare Statement On Shabbos
May 31, 2025 Yeshiva World News – In a damning new report, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) revealed that Iran conducted secret nuclear activities using undeclared material at three long-suspected sites — confirming fears that Tehran was operating a clandestine nuclear weapons program.
The confidential report, obtained by Reuters, was requested by the IAEA’s 35-nation Board of Governors and outlines decades of nuclear violations. It concludes that Iran operated a covert and structured nuclear weapons initiative until the early 2000s, and stored nuclear material and contaminated equipment at a fourth site, Turquzabad, between 2009 and 2018 — the same facility publicly exposed by Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu at the United Nations in 2018.
The report notes Iran’s cooperation with IAEA inspectors remains “less than satisfactory,” with Tehran still failing to explain traces of uranium found at undeclared locations. The IAEA said the activities “used undeclared nuclear material” and were directly relevant to nuclear weapons development.
In response, the United States, Britain, France, and Germany plan to submit a resolution declaring Iran in breach of its nuclear non-proliferation obligations at the upcoming IAEA board meeting during the week of June 9. It would mark the first time in nearly 20 years that Iran is officially declared non-compliant.
Tehran rejected the IAEA’s findings as “politically motivated” and threatened “appropriate measures” should action be taken against it.
Meanwhile, a separate IAEA report disclosed that Iran’s stockpile of 60% enriched uranium — just a short step from weapons-grade — has ballooned to 408.6 kilograms, nearly enough to build nine atomic bombs. The agency warned that Iran is now “the only non-nuclear-weapon state to produce such material,” calling the development “a matter of serious concern.”
In a rare public statement issued on Shabbos, Prime Minister Netanyahu responded to the revelations, stating:
“The IAEA has reported a grave and unequivocal report on Iran’s nuclear program. The agency presents a stark picture that serves as a clear warning sign: despite countless warnings by the international community, Iran is totally determined to complete its nuclear weapons program.
“This report strongly reinforces what Israel has been saying for years — the purpose of Iran’s nuclear program is not peaceful. This is evident from the alarming scope of Iran’s uranium enrichment activity, which has no civilian justification.
“The international community must act now to stop Iran.”
The latest findings are expected to intensify pressure on Western powers and may eventually lead to Iran being referred to the UN Security Council, though that step is likely to come in future board sessions.

“The IAEA has reported a grave and unequivocal report on Iran’s nuclear program. The agency presents a stark picture that serves as a clear warning sign: despite countless warnings by the international community, Iran is totally determined to complete its nuclear weapons program. The international community must act now to stop Iran.”
[Ed.: No, Bibi, the international community is not going to act against Iran. Get over it. Not gonna’ happen. And since you don’t have the balls to do it (even though Trump told you to take care of it,) it’s a non-starter.]

☢️ Iran has significantly escalated its uranium enrichment activities, reaching a stockpile of 274.8 kilograms enriched to 60% purity, according to a new report by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). Nuclear experts warn that this quantity is enough to produce multiple nuclear weapons if further enriched to 90% weapons-grade material.
The IAEA emphasized that Iran’s enrichment levels and its refusal to grant full monitoring access are obstructing global diplomatic efforts to revive the 2015 nuclear deal (JCPOA), from which the United States withdrew in 2018. The agency expressed concern that restricted inspections and reduced transparency make it difficult to verify the “peaceful” nature of Iran’s nuclear program.
⚠️ In response, the Israeli Prime Minister’s Office issued a strong statement, warning: “The IAEA report confirms that Iran’s nuclear program is not peaceful. It clearly shows Iran’s intention to complete its nuclear weapons program. The international community must act now to stop Iran’s nuclear program.”
🎗️ IDF Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir also addressed the growing threat, stating that a Gaza hostage exchange deal would allow Israel to shift its strategic focus toward confronting Iran’s nuclear ambitions: “A Gaza exchange deal will allow us to focus on Iran.”
🚨 During his visit to the Middle East, President Trump was strongly advised by the leaders of Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the UAE to avoid launching a military strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities. Instead, they urged him to focus on negotiating a new nuclear agreement. The Saudi Crown Prince voiced concern over the potential of an Israeli-led military strike on Iran, fearing it could escalate into a broader regional conflict.
The President of the UAE emphasized that diplomacy must be prioritized, clearly stating his opposition to a U.S.-led military intervention. Meanwhile, the Emir of Qatar issued a stern warning, saying that if Iran retaliated, the Gulf states would be the first to be targeted.
Adding to this regional pressure, Saudi Defense Minister Prince Khalid bin Salman traveled to Tehran last month and delivered a direct message to Iranian officials: “Take President Trump’s offer to negotiate a nuclear agreement seriously because it presents a way to avoid the risk of war with Israel.”
In a significant development, Channel 12 reported that President Trump has ordered a halt to U.S.-Israel coordination on a joint military strike against Iran’s nuclear program, signaling a shift away from military action and reinforcing his commitment to a diplomatic path forward.
🔴 Israel has recently conducted a classified interdepartmental meeting to assess preparedness for two possible scenarios: a direct Israeli strike on Iran or an Iranian attack on Israel. The discussions, revealed by Maariv, focused on strategic response planning and civil defense measures in the event of a large-scale regional escalation.
A key concern raised during the session was the potential scale of Iranian retaliation. Officials warned that thousands of missiles — each weighing approximately 700 kilograms — could be launched at Israeli territory if military action against Iran is initiated.
⭕ In response to growing Israeli rhetoric, Iran’s Army Chief issued a sharp warning, stating: “If they’re in a hurry for another ‘True Promise,’ we’re fully prepared to deliver the appropriate blow—and this time we’ll collect the debt we’re already owed too.” His remarks signal Iran’s readiness to respond with full force to any Israeli move.

🎗️ Hamas has rejected the U.S.-backed framework for a hostage release deal, presenting a counterproposal that U.S. envoy Witkoff called “totally unacceptable” and a step backward. Witkoff emphasized that Hamas should accept the existing framework to begin proximity talks as early as next week. The proposal, he noted, could lead to a 60-day ceasefire during which half of the living hostages and half of those confirmed deceased would be returned to their families. It would also open the door for substantive negotiations aimed at reaching a permanent ceasefire.
Instead, Hamas issued a list of extreme demands, including a 7-year ceasefire, complete IDF withdrawal from all areas captured since March, and the cancellation of the new international aid distribution mechanism in Gaza. Officials warned that these demands reflect not a path to peace but a strategy to keep Hamas in power, rearm, and potentially repeat attacks like those of October 7. The counterproposal is being viewed as a calculated move by a genocidal regime that sacrifices civilian welfare to ensure its own survival.
🎗️ Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich warned against any partial agreement with Hamas, stressing that the terror organization is currently under immense pressure. He attributed this to the recent overhaul of the aid distribution system in Gaza, which has significantly reduced Hamas’s control over the civilian population, as well as the ongoing military operations that continue to weaken the group.
Smotrich emphasized the importance of maintaining and intensifying this pressure, arguing it is the key to forcing Hamas into a full surrender and securing the release of all hostages at once. He rejected the idea of easing up or signing any interim deal, stating clearly:
“It would be delusional folly to release pressure now and sign a partial deal with it that would give it oxygen and a lifeline and allow it to recover. I will not allow such a thing to happen. Period.”
He concluded that Israel must stay firm and focused to prevent Hamas from regaining strength or legitimacy.
🎯 Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz announced that Ez al-Dine al-Haddad, a senior figure in Hamas’ al-Qassam Brigades General Military Council, and Khalil al-Hayya, a member of Hamas’ Political Bureau based in Qatar, are “next in line.” The statement signals that both individuals are now high-priority targets for Israeli forces in the ongoing campaign against Hamas leadership.
🔹 Israeli political leaders are actively engaging with German counterparts to prevent the imposition of an arms embargo on Israel. The concern arises as Germany considers conditioning future weapons shipments on the humanitarian situation in Gaza. German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul stated, “Germany will decide whether or not to approve new weapons shipments to Israel based on an assessment of the humanitarian situation in Gaza. We are examining this and, if necessary, we will authorize further arms deliveries based on this examination.”
