Ta-Nehisi Coates suggested he’s not above taking part in an October 7-style attack. Ta-Nehisi Coates called Gaza ‘the biggest open-air prison.’ Here is what Gaza looked like before the October 7th Massacre, from the perspective of a Palestinian girl.

Reintegrating Israelis facing mental health challenges since October 7 will constitute an integral part of us winning this war. An emerging combination of upgraded government activity, NGO heavy lifting and societal cooperation will go a long way to ensure that victory. See my

Something calming about certainty that our mini-pomegranate bush blossoms like clockwork every Jewish New Year (tonight). As we say, may the curses of the outgoing year be replaced by blessings of the incoming year. And may the hostages be freed by their Hamas captors.

I take very personally news of current Hezbollah attacks on the Jezreel valley. That's where I got my start in Israel upon arrival in 1983; where I fell in love with our homeland, its agricultural & pioneer heritage; where I have many loved ones. Praying they remain safe.

Directed by Yaara Reshef Nahor, actors Yaroslav Bernatsky and Shoval Ben Zeev will depict the fable about the prince who sought a friend among the stars using Israeli Sign Language (ISL).
