Oct 2023. The New York Times claimed "at least 500 Palestinians" were killed in an Israeli strike on a hospital."
They lied. Islamic Jihad did it. Their rocket hit a car park, not a hospital. And a few dozen were killed.
July 2025: NYT holds up sick child claiming he was a healthy child deliberately starved by Israel.
They lied. The child had Cerebral Palsy.
May 2026: NYT says that Israel trains dogs to rape Palestinians.
Guess what? They are lying again. It is blatant nonsense spread by a pro-Hamas NGO. As usual it moves from Hamas propaganda HQ to the pages of the NYT.
Why on earth would you pay any attention to what the New York Times says on Israel?
Anne Frank was targeted and murdered solely because she was Jewish. Leaders making false equivalencies to her experience for political purposes is never acceptable. Despite tensions in Minneapolis, exploiting the Holocaust is deeply offensive, especially as antisemitism surges.
“Growing up in L.A., being left-handed and Jewish made Sandy Koufax a great role model. It didn’t hurt that he was one of the best ever.”
“It’s special because there aren’t many Jewish players in the majors.”
“I grew up fairly observant — High Holidays, bar mitzvah, all that good stuff.”

I wondered if I would ever see this day. It’s deeply gratifying to know that so many families will finally have their loved ones home. Today, twenty families are spared the unbearable pain of not knowing if they will ever see their loved ones again. But even in this moment of relief and happiness, my heart aches for those whose loved ones will not return alive. Bringing their bodies home is a must and an act of dignity and honors their memory forever. I can’t help but feel the presence of my son Andrew at this moment. I am profoundly grateful for the indomitable spirit of President Trump. This day would not have been possible without him.
The war is over.
The living are home.
And for the first time in two years, our Jewish nation can breathe a little.
This day belongs to the people;
to the parents who lived in sleepless prayer,
to the soldiers who walked into the fire,
to the families who buried their children and still stood to welcome others home.
It belongs to those who never stopped fighting—
with hope, with faith, with words, with love of this land and its people.
To those who were attacked for standing with truth.
To those who carried hope when it felt impossible.
To those who gave their lives for this light to keep shining.
You are the reason we survived.
You are the reason the light returned.
Before the speeches, before the credits—
remember this:
it wasn’t power alone that brought them home.
It was people.
It was you.
Am Yisrael Chai. ✡
