On October 7, Eden Nimri (22) bravely confronted Hamas single-handedly. At the time, she was wearing pajamas and stood at the entrance of a bomb shelter, protecting the people inside. She saved 17 girls.
According to a Ynet report, all 17 girls survived safely.
Survivors recounted that when Eden ran out of ammunition, she fought the terrorists unarmed, using only her bare hands.
She sacrificed her life while defending Israel and her friends. Eden was only 22 years old. Her bravery will never be forgotten. Her memory will always remain with us 🎗️
Roman Polanski rechazó originalmente dirigir La lista de Schindler cuando Steven Spielberg se lo ofreció porque la historia transcurría en el gueto de Cracovia, el mismo lugar donde el propio Polanski vivió recluido de niño y del que logró escapar tras perder a su madre en Auschwitz. Para el director, recrear esas calles exactas resultaba un trauma demasiado personal e insoportable de revivir en un set de filmación.
Años después encontró en las memorias de Władysław Szpilman la oportunidad perfecta para plasmar su vivencia en la Shoa, pero con la distancia narrativa que le brindaba el gueto de Varsovia. Durante el rodaje de El Pianista, el equipo destacó que Polanski no necesitaba mapas ni libros de historia para dirigir las escenas de persecución y miseria; recordaba a la perfección cada detalle, el miedo constante y la atmósfera devastadora de su propia infancia.
On This Day — August 17, 1960
Less than three months after Israeli agents seized Adolf Eichmann in Buenos Aires, Argentine Nazis answered with bullets.
A group of young neo-Nazis from the Tacuara movement ambushed Jewish students leaving school. They opened fire, shouting “Viva Eichmann!” A 15-year-old Jewish boy, Edgardo Trilnik, was shot and wounded.
Eichmann had lived openly in Argentina for a decade. When the Jews of Israel finally captured him, local Nazis treated it as a personal insult. They went after the nearest Jews they could find.
The same ideology that helped murder six million still had defenders willing to pull the trigger on a Jewish teenager in broad daylight.
In less than 150 seconds, Bill Maher explains how Israel gave back Gaza to the Palestinians in 2005, and instead of turning it into a Dubai, they chose Hamas and wanted war.
They refused every peace deal Israel offered them.
On This Day — August 16, 1966
An Iraqi MiG-21 appeared on Israeli radar, flying west.
It was not an attack.
It was a defection.
Munir Redfa, a Christian pilot in the Iraqi Air Force and one of the few trusted to fly the Soviet Union’s most advanced fighter, had stolen the plane and was bringing it straight to Israel.
The Mossad had spent years trying to get a MiG-21. Previous attempts ended with agents hanged. The Russians tightly controlled every aspect of the aircraft. Flying a MiG-21 was the highest honor an Arab pilot could receive.
Redfa was different. As a Christian minority officer he had been passed over for promotion, restricted in fuel, and ordered to bomb Kurdish villages. A Mossad agent cultivated him. The deal was sealed: $1 million, Israeli citizenship, safety for his entire extended family, and a new life.
On August 16, he took off on a routine training flight, filled his tanks to capacity against Russian regulations, switched off his radio when ordered to return, and flew a carefully planned zigzag route into Israel. Israeli Mirage fighter jets rose to escort him. He landed in the Negev.
That same day, Mossad agents and Kurdish guerrillas smuggled the rest of his family out of Iraq through Iran.
For the first time, the West had a fully operational MiG-21. Israel studied every bolt. The United States later tested it extensively. Less than a year later, in the Six Day War, Israeli pilots who knew the enemy’s best fighter inside and out helped destroy the Arab air forces on the ground and in the air.
One pilot.
One plane.
One of the greatest intelligence coups of the Cold War.
16. srpna 1913 se narodil Menachem Begin. Muž, který celý život odmítal představu, že Židé mají být odkázáni na soucit ostatních.
Narodil se v Brestu, prošel sovětským vězením a během holokaustu přišel o rodiče a bratra. Po příchodu do Palestiny vedl Irgun a po vzniku Izraele vstoupil do politiky.
V roce 1977 se stal premiérem. Politik pověstný svou neústupností pak uzavřel mír s arabským státem. Za cestu k historické dohodě s Egyptem získali Begin a Anvar Sadat Nobelovu cenu míru.
Na propagandistickém plakátu z roku 1982 je ovšem izraelský premiér zobrazen s nacistickou ikonografií na americkém tanku.
Nebyl to izolovaný výstřelek. Přirovnávání Izraele k nacistickému Německu a jeho představitelů k nacistům bylo výrazným motivem sovětské i arabské propagandy.
Od Beginova narození uplyne 113 let. Od tohoto plakátu více než čtyřicet.
Izrael stále přirovnávají k nacistům. Židovský stát obviňují z genocidy.
Jména premiérů se mění. Čas plyne. Nenávist zůstává.

🇮🇱🤝🇨🇴Alliance of Brothers Delegation: Home Front Command forces operating at impact sites in Cali, Colombia
The delegation’s members are operating at 2 major impact sites and assisting efforts to locate and rescue trapped individuals, alongside numerous local volunteers.
Efforts have begun to map and assess buildings damaged in the earthquake, in cooperation with local authorities, with the aim of assisting in developing a situational assessment and determining priorities for continued response efforts.
🇮🇱🇨🇴#URGENTE: #Israel envía 80 rescatistas a Colombia para ayudar en los rescates tras el terremoto. Estaban en el aire, listos para buscar, rescatar y extraer, antes de que las teorías de conspiración de los borregos antisemitas terminaran de cargar.
En eso, España impidió el uso de su espacio aéreo al vuelo que los llevaba a Colombia; el avión tuvo que desviarse y cruzar el espacio aéreo de Marruecos.
Colombia tuvo un terremoto de 7,4.

11. srpna 1957 v Jáchymově naposledy vydechl Josef Bryks. Pilot 252. perutě RAF. V červnu 1941 Brykse sestřelil Adolf Galland. Ze zajetí třikrát utekl, pokusil se ukrást Messerschmitt. Podílel se na útěku ze Saganu. Vše přežil, aby ho umučili čeští komunisté. Nesmíme zapomínat!

@FranaSram_ek@KarelPatak1 Není to náhodou ta firma, na kterou zaútočili údajní propalestinští aktivisté ? Údajně kvůli boji proti Izraeli? Tak teď je vidět, komu a co vadilo…
