Last week the media got it wrong. Israel did not strike a hospital in Gaza, in fact no one did. The explosion everyone saw was the result of a failed rocket from a militant group in Gaza that landed in the parking lot adjacent to the hospital. Yes, people were killed, and people were injured. The lot was being used as a triage area for the wounded and was also hosting many displaced people. At first, the estimates were that 200-300 people were killed, then it became 500-600. The world was fuming at Israel, despite Israel’s insistence, and Al Jazeera’s live-feed confirmation that it was a failed launch from Gaza which caused the explosion.

Five days have elapsed since Hamas’s terrorists breached Israeli borders, perpetrating a litany of appalling acts such as rape, torture, and kidnapping. Further shocking revelations emerged yesterday, detailing the live immolation of individuals and the beheading of infants. In what constitutes Israel's first major conflict since the Yom Kippur War of 1973, social media personalities are offering extensive coverage. Engaging in live YouTube debates, Instagram interviews, and conversations on X (formerly Twitter) Spaces, a range of commentators—both amateur and professional—are weighing in. While perspectives naturally vary between pro-Israel and pro-Palestine stances, a sizable portion of these voices claims to aim for unbiased reporting.

As normalization agreements progress between Israel and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and the promise of peace permeates both nations, certain details and agreements between the two countries remain unresolved. Chief among these is the question of what benefits the Palestinian Authority (PA) and its citizens can expect in light of what many perceive as Saudi Arabia distancing itself from the Palestinian cause. Although Bin Salman has made it clear, during his recent Fox News interview, that Palestinian statehood is not currently on the table, perhaps the Saudi Kingdom needs to convey a more assertive message, something along the lines of 'what have you done for us lately?'

The events that unfolded in Tel Aviv on Yom Kippur were deeply troubling and, for me, proof that the anti-judicial reform protesters have an agenda far more nefarious than blocking legislation with which they do not agree. For generations, Jews have put aside their sociopolitical viewpoints on this most sacred of days. Regardless of their level of observance—be it fasting and spending the day in prayer or otherwise—there was a communal understanding that the day itself was inviolable. The idea of disrupting the two most revered prayers in Judaism, 'Kol Nidre' and 'Neila,' was inconceivable. This year was different. Emboldened by nearly 40 weeks of anti-government demonstrations—partially instigated by controversial personalities like former Prime Minister Ehud Barak, whose inexplicably affluent lifestyle and associations with the late convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein raise eyebrows—the protesters chose to disrupt what is both the most sacred day on the Jewish calendar and one of the happiest days of the year in the modern State of Israel.
