Hate Israel all you want but one thing is absolutely, abundantly clear after the rescue of the American pilots and as this war has proceeded:
No other ally in the world today actively assists the US as Israel does. They are the truest ally in every sense of the word.
NATO won't even let the US fly through their airspace. Israel? They'll put their own pilots in the line of fire to rescue an American. That's allyship.
Tamari’s Project – dedicated to the memory of Tamar Kedem Siman-Tov.
Sagui Dekel-Chen is seen in a video for the first time since returning from Gaza after almost 500 days as a hostage in Hamas’s dark tunnels.
His wife, Avital, whose courage we followed for 500 days, gave birth while he was in captivity.
He is singing his daughters’ favorite song, “Keren Shemesh” (A Ray of Sun), dedicating it to the rest of his friends still held in captivity, not seeing the sunlight for more than 510 days.
This is a video full of love, hope, and the wish that they will all come back.
Tamar Kedem Siman-Tov was murdered in Kibbutz Nir Oz along with her husband, John, their daughters, Shahar and Arbel, and their son, Omer.
In her short life, she achieved so much—creating, learning, giving, building a family, moving mountains, and founding Bikurim, a youth village for musical excellence.
These incredible musicians are her graduates and colleagues from the village—talented children from all across the country who, thanks to Tamari, were given the chance to truly pursue their dreams.
Together with Tamari, Sagui Dekel-Chen co-founded the village.
