As I try to develop my skills as a journalist, I will look for opportunities to get out into the field and away from my computer to write about people and events first-hand. In other cases, my first-hand reporting will be Internet based investigations.
Yesterday before 23:00, Lod burst into the news again when Arabs burst into a Bnei Akiva clubhouse and attacked Jewish youth.. Honenu, the organization that is representing the injured Jewish youth, released the first notification of the incident. Ben Gvir did not disappoint and was one of the first politicians, it appears, to have reacted…
The news of Haredi IDF soldiers beating unarmed Palestinian Arabs broke on August 24th. A TikTok video,uploaded to the social media site on August 15th, came to the attention of the IDF and Chief of Staff Aviv Kochavi’s reaction to it was widely quoted in the Israeli press. The foreign press has apparently not yet…
Whether civilians or soldiers are involved, the first reaction of some of our leaders who hear about Jewish violence against Palestinian Arabs in Judea-Samaria is to malign the Jews .The latest incident involves Haredi soldiers in the unit called Netzach Yehuda (Judah’s Eternal Battalion) and, immediately upon seeing a supposedly incriminating video, Rav-Aluf Aviv Kochavi,…
Chomesh in the news: They take it down. A yeshiva goes up. They take it down. They put it up again. And they threaten to take it back down again. The operations against the yeshiva are more intense now, after the 17 December 2021 murder of Yehuda Dimentman (25). He was killed by terrorists when…

Meretz Party MK Mossi Raz, among others, is on a campaign (rampage?) to demonize all the Jews living in Judea-Samaria. At the beginning of the month, he posted a Tweet that reads: The state’s answer to the petition submitted by Homesh according to which there is no date for evacuating the yeshiva is another submission…
On the 17th of February a call went out on the Sinjel Municipality Facebook page urging the Palestinian Arabs to come out for an undisclosed activity seeking to push Jews off the land. A rough Google translation of the post reads: Your presence is a pure national duty.. A public invitation.. We call on landowners…
Israel’s Defence Minister, Benny Gantz, is cooperating with the biggest real estate scam this country has ever seen. He does this in two ways: first, by taking advantage of the current make-up of the coalition government and making moves to legalize a number of illegal Arab outposts in Judea-Samaria, the heartland of the ancient Land…
Following an incident at Burin, at a special Law Committee session dealing with so-called “settler violence,” Rabbis for Human Rights Executive Director Avi Dabush was honoured with having had the closing remark in the press release summarizing the session: Givat Ronen is known as a place that harasses Palestinians.. . .

Sometimes the wheels of justice turn excruciatingly slowly. Only recently, 17 Jewish men who were arrested in Ramla in May 2021, during Operation Guardians of the Walls, were finally awarded NIS 5,000 each as compensation for false arrest.
