The most recent terrorist attack in Jerusalem that injured 8 Israelis, 5 of them being American citizens, had a very strange ending. Unless the terrorist responsible for an attack is not neutralized on the spot, IDF forces will go door to door searching for them. That is exactly what happened throughout the night in East Jerusalem after the shooting right by King David’s tomb.
A review published by the office of Israel’s chief economist, Shira Goldberg, shows that the Coronavirus crisis in Israel did not lead to mass voluntary resignations and that today's employment and participation rates have slightly exceeded their pre-crisis levels. However, there has been a slight change in the industry mix - with a significant increase in the proportion of employees in high-tech compared to a decrease in the trade, hospitality, and food industries.
Despite reporting from outlets like the BBC, CNN, and most mainstream media outlets, the Israel Defense Forces is a remarkable institution that values life above all else. From the soldiers that make up their ranks to the targets of their military activity, the fundamental constant with the IDF is to preserve life, even at the risk of allowing nasty people to get away.
A record number of officers resigned from the Israel Police force during the first six months of 2022, creating an unprecedented inner crisis. Israel Police presented its data to the Knesset Public Security Committee to raise awareness of the growing problem.
Palestinians call the formation of the State of Israel a tragedy, they have a word for it, 'Nakba' and a day that commemorates the tragic displacement of tens of thousands of Palestinians after the Arab war against Isreal's formation failed and Israel annexed land abandoned by the Arab forces.
Their tragedy came about as a result of a war that was waged against Israel and the failure of the Arab forces to succeed in their mission. However, the real tragedy that occurred after Israel was formed was the forced displacement of hundreds of thousands of Jews within Arab and Muslim countries - the true Nakba was the theft of property, assets and the ultimate banishment of Jews from their homes who had lived in Muslim lands for centuries.
