Be Bold and Settle Our Entire Land of Israel

 

Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called "Be Bold and Settle Our Entire Land of Israel."

As Prime Minister Netanyahu’s government boldly allocates $350 million to establish 61 new Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria, he acts as a modern Caleb and Joshua—faithful and courageous in claiming our biblically mandated and historical land despite international condemnation. We must be clear: we cannot and will not let Hamas and its terrorist affiliates steal our Jewish ancestral land or erase our indigenous connection to it. The Bible reinforces this imperative, teaching that fear blinds us to God’s promise while faith empowers us to overcome seemingly impossible obstacles, just as the spies once trembled before the giants of Canaan. Just as the rabbi today courageously corrected a congregation drifting into herd mentality during Shabbat Mussaf, so too must we—especially today’s B’nai Mitzvah, celebrating on the symbolic date of 6/13 (613 mitzvot)—reject secular conformity and stand firm in Jewish responsibility. We are commanded not to blend into the global herd but to break from it, sanctify our actions, and move forward with unyielding faith to build and secure the Land of Israel.

Eyes That Do Not See: The Moral Vanity of Anti-Zionism

Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called "Eyes That Do Not See: The Moral Vanity of Anti-Zionism."

A blind woman regains her sight only to reject the man who loved her, and the story becomes a metaphor for the deepest moral failure: refusing to see the truth once it is in front of you. The piece argues that much of the world treats Israel the same way, condemning the Jewish state through distorted morality while ignoring its history, its self-defense, and the reality of the war it faces. It says critics apply double standards, overlook October 7, and dismiss Israel’s contributions and repeated efforts toward peace. The central message is that the world’s problem is not lack of information, but a refusal to recognize truth, history, and Jewish sovereignty honestly.

Mamdani's Enablers

Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called "Mamdani's Enablers."

A recent progressive Jewish gathering at Gracie Mansion hosted by Mayor Mamdani exposes a glaring communal hypocrisy, where the desire for political access overrode solidarity in the face of his anti-Israel actions. This selective morality is not just political, but mirrors a broader cultural gap within Jewish life between the high ideals we preach and how we actually treat one another. Across everyday interactions—from a rabbi’s immediate suspicion of a neighbor's kitchen to a leader weaponizing theology to crush a vulnerable soul—we repeatedly trade basic empathy for rigid judgment and convenience. Ultimately, true community cannot be reduced to political alignments or superficial compliance; it demands that we close this moral gap and begin practicing the genuine decency we expect from the outside world.

America at 250: Renewal or Collapse

Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called "America at 250: Renewal or Collapse."

As the United States approaches its historic 250th anniversary, the foundational promise of liberty that allowed American Jewry to flourish is increasingly being weaponized to hollow the nation out from within. Modern antisemitism and anti-Zionism have mutated into a sophisticated war on objective truth, systematically using propaganda to turn the world's singular Jewish nation and its people from victims into villains. This dangerous societal decay was thrown into sharp contrast by the profound spiritual vitality of a recent Shavuot retreat, showing in practical terms that the grotesque libels spread by bad actors are total inversions of reality. Ultimately, Western civilization faces a binary choice to either aggressively defend the rule of law and truth, or surrender to an institutional collapse where hatred is normalized and the forces of destruction are mistaken for progress.

Politics Must Never Trump Morality

Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called "Politics Must Never Trump Morality."

The United States is currently experiencing a dangerous lapse in strategic judgment by allowing partisan politics to undermine its essential alliance with Israel against the Iranian regime. While Iran continues to fuel global instability through terrorist proxies and nuclear ambitions, American leaders must reject baseless conspiracy theories and the rising tide of antisemitism that seeks to recast democratic defense as aggression. True national security requires the maturity to prioritize the victory of our warfighters and the integrity of our borders over domestic grievances or ideological activism. Ultimately, America must reclaim its moral clarity by standing unapologetically with its allies and maintaining a firm distinction between democratic partners and terrorist adversaries.

After October 7: Five Biblical Promises Fulfilled

 

Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called "After October 7: Five Biblical Promises Fulfilled."

The conflict since October 7, 2023, has transformed Torah prophecy into a measurable military reality, where the "Axis of Resistance" fractured into exactly seven distinct geographical fronts as literalized in Deuteronomy 28:7. This strategic precision is mirrored by a 26:1 casualty ratio that defies standard probability and numerically exceeds the 1:20 victory ratio promised in Leviticus 26:8. The systematic decapitation of enemy leadership, culminating in the 2026 collapse of the Iranian regime's hierarchy, further fulfills the ancient assurance that the "kings" of Israel's adversaries would be delivered into the hands of justice. Ultimately, the fusion of a "Holy Camp" with a regional "Highway of Blessing" has activated a physical and diplomatic shield, proving that the Word of G-d remains a sovereign force over modern geopolitics.'

You Reap What You Sow

Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called "You Reap What You Sow."

The world is witnessing a terrifying surge in antisemitic violence and dehumanizing rhetoric, yet the political response remains dangerously clinical and distracted. From ancient blood libels to modern digital vitriol, the Jewish people continue to be the perennial scapegoat for global catastrophes while their suffering is inverted through the lens of conspiracy. This systemic double standard allows hatred to metastasize across every level of culture, often shielded by a silence that would never be tolerated for any other group. Ultimately, this legacy of persecution serves as a grim reminder that while malice may be hurled like filth over a fence, there is a Divine Justice that ensures the evil one puts into the world eventually returns to its source.

The 250th Hostage: A Divine Homecoming

Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called "The 250th Hostage: A Divine Homecoming."

After 843 days in captivity, the recovery from Gaza of the last hostage, Ran Gvili—a hero who fought through pain to save a hundred souls—is a breathtaking modern miracle that echoes the sacred moment Moses carried Joseph’s bones toward the Promised Land. This homecoming reveals the profound power of Ezem, the Hebrew "essence" within the bone, proving that for the Jewish people, the remains of the righteous are not mere dust but a foundational spark awaiting the glory of resurrection. Through the divine "fingerprint" of Gematria and Ran’s miraculous return, we see the Almighty’s hand actively weaving the fabric of our redemption. It is a stirring herald of the coming dawn, where the dry bones of our history are reclothed in sovereignty and the light of the Third Temple finally pierces the darkness.

A Listening Heart: Guarding the Jewish Future

Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called "A Listening Heart: Guarding the Jewish Future."

In the aftermath of the October 7, 2023 attacks, the Jewish community faces a profound "mishearing" regarding the narratives surrounding the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, with anti-Zionism and antisemitism intertwining. Domestically, internal divisions over security and identity issues contributed to a failure to heed warnings of impending danger, an echo of historical spiritual deafness. The Torah portion Va'era illustrates this theme through Pharaoh's refusal to heed divine commands, paralleling examples from Jewish history where failure to discern truth resulted in catastrophe and division. Current oppressive regimes, like Iran's Ayatollah, exhibit similar denial of their people's voices, prioritizing power over humanity. The call to action for the Jewish community is clear: fostering a 'listening heart' to learn from the past while uniting to reject complacency and strengthen identity amidst challenges.

The poem passionately rallies Iran's people against decades of mullah tyranny, repression via Sharia brutality, and terror funding that squandered national wealth. It hails Persia's pre-1979 friendship with Israel and the West, Cyrus the Great's noble legacy, and current 2026 protests signaling regime collapse. A liberated secular Iran would dismantle proxies/nukes, join expanded Abraham Accords, revive oil and water solutions for prosperity. Hope surges for democracy, peace with neighbors, and Western aid ushering a free Persian renaissance.

This poem is a indictment of rising antisemitism and moral decay in Australia and the West.

Enough Is Enough: A Plan for Action

Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called "Enough Is Enough: A Plan for Action."

Supporters of Hamas have intensified a disturbing campaign of hatred and intimidation, targeting Jewish communities with hateful protests and violent threats. These actions seek not only disruption but the normalization of antisemitism and provocation of violence, exploiting legal protections and testing society’s resilience. Public officials’ inadequate responses risk legitimizing such hateful behavior, highlights the urgent need for decisive action. To confront this crisis, we must implement a comprehensive six-point strategy:

1. Strengthen laws and protections for targeted communities, enforcing hate crime and civil rights statutes and defamation laws.
2. Ensure venue-appropriate security for Jewish institutions and empower law enforcement to act swiftly and without political interference.
3. Hold individuals and public figures accountable for propagating antisemitism under the guise of political critique.
4. Counter misinformation and hate through accurate media reporting, education, and strategic communication campaigns.
5. Secure digital platforms by dismantling coordinated hate campaigns, bot networks, and stopping financial incentives for hate profiteers.
6. Strengthen community resilience through training, education on antisemitism, interfaith dialogue, cross-community alliances, and robust monitoring and reporting systems.

Good people can no longer remain silent as this dangerous tide of hate rises—we must confront it now with clarity, courage, and resolve to safeguard our future.

The Imminent Danger of Zohran Mamdani

 
Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called "The Imminent Danger of Zohran Mamdani."

The rise of radical socialism in New York threatens not only democracy but the safety of its Jewish community. As antisemitic incidents surge, Zohran Mamdani manipulates and gaslights the public, hiding behind claims of social justice and anti‑genocide rhetoric while refusing to condemn Hamas or calls for global intifada. His deception weaponizes resentment and division, turning ideology into an instrument of hate and racism. This escalating threat puts Jews and the city’s moral foundation at grave risk. If New Yorkers do not awaken quickly, history may again repeat its darkest chapters.

Bibi Was Right All Along

Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called "Bibi Was Right All Along."

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was right all along in his steadfast leadership during the complex and perilous Gaza conflict, maintaining clear strategic objectives despite criticism. His vision to bring hostages home, demilitarize Gaza, and eradicate Hamas ensured that terror would not dictate the region's future. After over two years of war and sacrifice, including the loss of nearly 1,200 IDF soldiers, a ceasefire has been achieved and the release of hostages is set to begin imminently. The successful peace plan, strongly supported by President Donald Trump’s diplomacy, marks a profound moment of joy and unity for Israel and the Jewish people worldwide, confirming the wisdom of Netanyahu’s approach.

The Future of the UN: Hope or Continued Hypocrisy?

Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called "The Future of the UN: Hope or Continued Hypocrisy."

This week, the UN disgracefully walked out on Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, exposing its deep hypocrisy and antisemitism. Its lopsided condemnations of Israel contrast sharply with praise for tyrants and regimes that commit atrocities worldwide. Many nations exploit hatred of Israel to conceal their own corruption, reviving the age-old tactic of scapegoating Jews. Despite global bias, Israel endures, upheld by justice, resilience, and divine providence, while history will judge those who ignore true moral threats of Nazism, Communism, and Radical Islam.

Preventing a Rosh Hashanah Massacre

Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called "Preventing a Rosh Hashanah Massacre."

Israel and the Jewish people face heightened danger as the High Holy Days approach, with Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran’s IRGC still plotting attacks even as Israel fights to eliminate Hamas in Gaza. History shows that terrorists deliberately strike Jews during symbolic and vulnerable moments—from the 1972 Munich Olympics and the 1973 Yom Kippur War to the October 7 Simchat Torah massacre and countless synagogue, school, and embassy attacks across the globe. Recent atrocities, including the 2019 Jersey City kosher supermarket shooting and the 2022 Colleyville synagogue hostage crisis, remind us that Jewish life in both Israel and the diaspora remains a prime target. The response must be fourfold: secure gates to limit access, guards to deter threats, guns for trained defense, and government coordination to share intelligence and mobilize law enforcement. Above all, communities must pair vigilance with prayer, recognizing security as both a practical necessity and a sacred duty to safeguard Jewish life.
