Gunmen loyal to Druze leader in Lebanon Walid Jumblatt kidnapped three Hezbollah men and executed two of them, the al-Jazeera network reported.

A total of ten Qassam rockets fired from the Gaza Strip Saturday morning landed in various areas of the western Negev damaged buildings in the western Negev.

Terrorists are firing at civilian towns and the world says nothing and the UN says nothing. Israel attacked terrorists where they operate in civilian areas and the world yells.

Enough is enough. What is the justification of attacking civilians in Negev, in Sderot, in Israel cities where no military bases are? IDF doesn’t keep soldiers there so the only reason to fire mortars and rockets is to kill civilians.

Elder of Zion posted Proud to be a Zionist (5768 edition). I absolutely agree with him. Now that we are celebrating Israel’s 60th Birthday we shouldn’t forget that having a Jewish state is not something granted.

Here some reasons to be proud of Israel and Zionism:

1. Israel redeemed the honor of the Jewish people. Jews are no longer thought of as passive, contemptible cowards.
2. Israel is the oldest working democracy in the Middle East. Turkey and Iraq have joined us. Welcome.
3. Israel has fought for the rights of Jews in the USSR and elsewhere and has helped them to win their freedom, regardless of whether they came to live in Israel or opted to live elsewhere.
4. The Zionist community in Palestine, despite meager resources and Arab and British opposition, rescued hundreds of thousands of European Jews who would have otherwise perished in the Holocaust.
5. Israel has successfully absorbed millions of Jewish immigrants from all over the world - people of many races and backgrounds including Jews from Europe, Asia and Africa.
6. Israel is the only country in the world that has more trees at the beginning of the twenty-first century than it had at the beginning of the twentieth century.
7. Making the desert bloom is not just a slogan. In one day, the Israel National Water Carrier pumps more water than was pumped in all of Palestine in the entire year of1948.
8. Not a single Jew remained in any of the places conquered by the Jordanians and Egyptians in 1948, including the old city of Jerusalem. There are more Arabs living in Jerusalem today under Israeli rule then have ever lived there in all of recorded history.

Join thousands of Jewish people around the world in a special Independence Day attempt to break the Guinness world record for the most people singing an anthem at the same time.

‘This is Syrian Air Force Flight. We have lost one engine and
want to land at any airport in the Middle East OTHER than Israel!’

No answer.

A while later he announces, ‘This is Syrian Air Force Flight 174 again
We have now lost two engines and need to land at any airport in the
Middle East OTHER than Israel!’

A short while later the captain announces, ‘This is Syrian Air Force
flight 174 We are desperate……We have now lost THREE engines an urgently ask permission to land at any airport in the Middle East OTHER than Israel!’

Still no answer.

Finally the captain calls out, ‘Help! This is Syrian Air Force Flight 174. We have only one engine left and it is rapidly failing. Unless we can land we are going to crash. We need permission to land at ANY airport in the Middle East INCLUDING Israel!’

Shortly thereafter, a voice is heard in the Syrian cockpit:

‘Shalom Syrian Air Force Flight 174. This is Tel Aviv approach control.
We would like to help.’

‘Allah is praised,’ says the Syrian pilot. ‘Please give me instructions.’

‘Do you speak Hebrew?’

‘No’

”OK, then please repeat after me:…….YITGADAL VIYITKADASH SHIMAY RABBAH…….”

Remembrance Day opened with a minute-long nationwide siren, as Israelis observed a moment of silence in memory of 22,437 casualties starting from 1860 to the beginning of May of this year. The figure includes 1,634 people killed in terror attacks.

Team fights back against Montepaschi Siena, books a place in Sunday’s final with a 92-85 win.

Military inquiry into incident which left Palestinian mother, four of her children dead, concludes family was hurt by detonation of weapons carried out by nearby gunman targeted by IAF missile. Army releases footage caught by UAV proving missile did not target Gaza home.

The IDF inquiry presents the following picture:

• At around 8 am, a cell of four terrorists was spotted firing at Givati troops operating in the Beit Hanoun area. IDF officials in the command room followed the cell, confirmed that they were terrorists carrying explosives, and attempted to determine the place where they would be attacked by an IAF aircraft.

• The cell members were spotted moving 400 meters (1,312 feet) away from the forces. At 8:13 am, an aircraft fired at two of the cell members, killing one of the terrorists wounding the other. The army continued to follow the injured terrorist, and about a minute later the aircraft fired another missile at him, identifying an accurate hit.

• Footage released by the IDF on Friday shows that civilians standing several meters away from the terrorist were not hurt, as the missile used to target him was accurate. The location selected by the IDF to target the second terrorist is close to a grape orchard, where not every civilian can be seen, and about 3 meters (9.8 feet) away from the gate of the Palestinian family’s home.

• Seven minutes after the second missile was fired, reports were received about civilians being hit, and several hours later it was reported that the family members were killed. According to estimates, weapons carried by the terrorist caused the heavy damage. The house’s gate is believed to have flown at the family members, who were at the time outside the house, inside the grape orchard.

• A number of sub-blasts took place following the first explosion, as a result of the weapons carried by the terrorists, which were not directly caused by the missile explosion. As part of the inquiry, the IDF examined previous incident in which similar missiles were fired.

Fatal crash claims lives of five Israelis; Foreign Ministry to ensure bodies’ safe return home.

Military Intelligence Chief Amos Yadlin warned the government Tuesday that Palestinian terror organizations are interested in executing a large-scale terrorist attack ahead of Israel’s 60th anniversary celebrations. (Haaretz)

Israel needs to defend itself. It cannot always be on the defensive. Its time the IDF goes with force into Gaza. The blockade of Gaza is useless. The responding to each attack with an air strike or sending troops in is useless. This has to be a major operation and break the back of Hamas.

A PA court in Hevron sentenced a 25-year-old man to death Monday for giving Israel information that led to the elimination of four terrorists. (Arutz Sheva)

When will Israel wake up and admit that it has executed grave errors in judgement as it continues to negotiate with known and sworn enemies of Israel and the Jewish People?!

Barbie, Harry Potter and other western toys are a “danger that need to be stopped.” warns a top Iranian judiciary official. (Haaretz)

Well, I think those Toys producers have the wrong marketing. Following some suggestions:

Iran Barbie - black outfit, black headscarf, black sunglasses, black gloves.
In one hand flaming American & Israeli flags in the other a Kalashnikov.

Iran Ken - a nuclear scientist working on Iran’s nuclear weapons.

Iran Harry Potter he rides around on a shihab rocket & mushroom clouds come out the end of his wand

Iran Superman his S is replaced by a mushroom cloud and he stands for Jihad, terror and the Iranian way.

Iran Batman his mask is a balaclava so he doesn’t get recognised when he carried out terror attacks, cape is a Hamas flag, his utility belt explodes and his emblem is of burning Israeli and American flags.

Do it right and both children & adults will be cuing up outside the toy stores to get their hands on one.
