I’m on the El-Al flight to Boston, just taking off from Ben Gurion Airport, Tel Aviv. Here’s my last situation report, and a reminder that you can do this too! Previous Postings: Week 1 was building 328 new bunk beds in new barracks on an IDF combat training base. Week 2 was building 44,000 lunch meals for troops in Gaza, one of whom I bought drinks in a bar, and had eaten lunches we packed. Week 3 was making 3 meals a day for the Navy in the Eilat heat. Now for a wrap up of the last weekend, afterthoughts...

“Then at the end of the days which the king had specified for presenting them, the commander of the officials presented them before Nebuchadnezzar. And the king talked with them, and out of them all not one was found like Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah; so they entered the king’s personal service. And as for every matter of wisdom and understanding about which the king consulted them, he found them ten times better than all the magicians and conjurers who were in all his realm” (Daniel 1:18-20). God always equips you for the tasks He requires of you. Daniel and...

“Those who sat in darkness and in the shadow of death, bound in affliction and irons – because they rebelled against the words of God…therefore he brought down their heart with labor; they fell down, and there was none to help” (Psalm 107:10-12, NKJV). They were bound in affliction because they rebelled against God and rejected his counsel (see Psalm 107:11). Beloved, could this be you? You have sat under godly preaching, and the Holy Spirit has convicted you, but still you are miserable and continue to sin. When a person willfully disobeys God, our tendency is to hide and...

The cop who saved lives by taking down an Islamist terrorist almost 10 years ago still can't be identified for legal reasons, and could go to prison if he speaks out about what happened. On December 15-16 2014, Man Horon Monis held 18 hostages in the Lindt Cafe on Martin Place in Sydney in a 16-hour standoff with police. Monis was armed with a pump shotgun, which he used to kill cafe manager Tori Johnson, and said he had a bomb in his backpack. The man who can only be referred to as Officer A, was part of the Tactical...

Hostages were forced to read the Quran. Hostages who were rescued from captivity on Saturday say that the terrorists forced them to read the Quran and learn Islamic rulings.

Why do we never see Pro-Palestine activists protesting about the genocide in Sudan?.The cohorts of Hamas invaded my London neighbourhood on Thursday. I was out walking when I paused to look at the remaining posters of kidnapped Israelis. Suddenly they were there. Five men, their faces slack with hate, started screaming “F--- Israel!” and “colonialist pigs!” A.... It is Hamas, not the Israelis, who are the oppressors. No other baby in the world was kidnapped for seven months, during which time neither Unicef, Red Cross, nor Amnesty even questioned its captivity. This is an uncomfortable fact for Sadiq Khan. Equally...

California owes the federal government $52.7 million after it “improperly” requested reimbursements for services provided to noncitizens, according to a recent inspector general report. The Golden State claimed Medicaid reimbursements for services it provided to “noncitizens with unsatisfactory immigration status,” the report reads. The category does not include those seeking asylum or refugees. States are prohibited from claiming such federal reimbursements except in medical emergency situations, which did not apply here, according to the report. An audit by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services inspector general’s office found California had been using an outdated calculation method to determine...

Despite President Joe Biden touting his economic “accomplishments,” a new report reveals that there are more foreign born workers in the United States than American workers. New Bureau of Labor Statistics data released this week found that there are 637,000 non-American citizen workers in the country. On the contrary, nearly 300,000 native-born Americans lost their jobs. Economist E.J. Antoni told The Federalist that the government has added a significant amount of jobs that are primarily only held by foreign born workers, leaving Americans struggling to look for jobs. “No wonder Americans view economy so terribly: they aren’t the ones [with]...

Believe it or not, there has been a transgender backlash in Europe. Sorry, I meant to say return to sanity on this issue that’s driven the Left over the edge to the point where they’re willing to erase womanhood to accommodate the super minority of people who are suffering from what could be described as mental illness. Before political correctness infested the medical community, the professionals had it right—this is gender dysphoria. The newcomers into the trans community are likely doing it to satisfy the social media craze behind it. Even more pernicious are the gender mutilation surgeries, puberty blockers,...

More than half of President Biden’s supporters said they are mainly backing the incumbent in 2024 to oppose former President Trump, according to a new poll. A new CBS News/YouGov poll, released Sunday, found 54 percent of likely Biden voters are planning to choose him on November’s ballot, a 7-point increase from March. The second-highest reason for choosing Biden was that they liked him, with 27 percent selecting the option. This is down 4 points from when the poll was taken in March. Nearly a fifth, or 19 percent, said they are going with Biden because he is the presumptive...

The decommissioning schedule for the U.S. Navy’s remaining 13 Ticonderoga-class guided missile cruisers has been set. Next to leave service will be the Vicksburg (CG 69) in June 2024, followed by the Cowpens (CG 63) in August, Antietam (CG 54) and Leyte Gulf (CG 55) in September. Overall, the last two cruisers will likely be Chosin (CG 65) and Cape St. George (CG 71), both to be decommissioned in fiscal 2027. The close of their careers will bring an end to the service life of the class, the world’s first to be equipped with the Aegis combat system.

The victim was from Kalempang village in the South Sulawesi province, according to Deutsche Welle (DW). The outlet said the story began on Thursday when she informed her husband that she was leaving to sell chilies to a collector. However, that was apparently the last time anyone saw her alive. Village chief Suardi Rosi explained that the woman, whose name was Farida, did not return home and her husband and their relatives began searching for...

Do they come in peace? The question has hung over the UFO mystery forever, but a new study comes closer to an answer than ever before. Since the United States detonated its first atomic bomb at the Trinity test site in 1945, dozens of accounts of UFOs have been logged by military witnesses and government scientists working with America's sensitive nuclear arsenal.
