    ..... Speaking during a visit to the Ramat David Airbase, Gallant said, "The action of the Air Force in all sectors is very impressive, and it is appropriate that the roar of the jets drown out the unnecessary chatter and allow the IDF soldiers to carry out their mission quietly and safely." Bennett, in his op-ed, mentioned that during his term as Prime Minister, Israel destroyed a UAV base on Iranian soil, thwarted an attempted Iranian terror attack on Israeli tourists in Turkey, and shortly afterwards "the commander of that very unit was assassinated in the center of Tehran." Responding...

  • Netanyahu’s note to successor Bennett revealed: ‘Be right back!’

    When Naftali Bennett took over Israel’s premiership from Benjamin Netanyahu in June of 2021, the Likud leader was famously derisive and dismissive of his successor, questioning the legitimacy of his government and promising to return to power quickly. Some commentators criticized Netanyahu then for his apparent lack of decorum, noting that previous transfers of power had been more courteous. Now, a little more than a year later and with Netanyahu set to return to the premiership, a new detail has emerged from that handover. Channel 12 news on Friday published a photo of a note that was left for Bennett...

    If there’s a candidate for elected office more honest, ethical, and authentic than Joe O’Dea, we’d be surprised.Indeed, national journalists have called O’Dea one of the best candidates anywhere in the country. O’Dea’s an American success story, who is a rare blend of candor, decency and strength.The campaign by [Democrats] to smear the good name of Joe O’Dea — an honest man trying to do good for a country that badly needs balanced leadership — is misleading and wrong. ... Even traditional mainstream media at the New York Times, the Washington Post and NBC News have loudly condemned the smear...

    Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett has not ruled out sitting with MKs Benjamin Netanyahu (Likud), Bezalel Smotrich (Religious Zionism), and Itamar Ben Gvir (Otzma Yehudit), but opposes the formation for a "fully" right-wing government. In an interview with Channel 13 News, Bennett said, "A fully right-wing government, in the current sense, is, in my eyes, a disaster, because it does not have the balances." He added, "Netanyahu, Bezalel, and Ben Gvir...in a different constellation, can be fine, but a government trapped in the hands of the extreme is horrible and awful, even if it is the other side." .....

    The Lebanese Al-Mayadeen news website, which is affiliated with Hezbollah, reported on Wednesday that Palestinian Arab terrorist groups have informed Israel, through mediators, that they will not remain silent and respond militarily to Israel's attempts to establish new facts in Jerusalem and in particular in the Al-Aqsa Mosque. Palestinian Arab sources in Gaza told the website that Israel sent a message through the mediators that the Flag March, scheduled for this Sunday in Jerusalem, would take place along the same route that has been customary in recent years. The message also stated that the Israel Police will limit the number...

"My parents never hid the fact that I was adopted," Bennett, 70, told us from his Fort Worth home, where one room is filled with the memorabilia, commendations and photographs of a rewarding military career. And in one corner, a picture of...

We're not seeing Israelis murdering Palestinians." Over Amanpour's protests, the Prime Minister continued: "I also object - these are not occupied territories... "Israel is peaceful," he said.

We can say there is dialogue, but it continues to be very complicated. The two leaders...

    The prime minister says preliminary data on the fourth vaccine dose shows that it safely brings about a fivefold increase in antibodies that battle the coronavirus. Naftali Bennett speaks during a visit to Sheba Medical Center in Ramat Gan, where the government launched a trial of second boosters early last week. It is now offering fourth doses of the Pfizer vaccine to people over 60 years old alongside those with weakened immune systems. Bennett says initial results show the fourth dose is as safe as the the third dose, which has already been given to almost half of Israel’s population...
