The Modern Jewish Home 19April2017 - PODCAST

In 2010 Kay Wilson and Kristine Luken were abducted by Arab terrorists in a forest near Jerusalem. The murders tied up the women and proceeded in stabbing them multiple times. Kristine Luken died of her wounds and Kay Wilson pretended to be dead and survived.

Last week in a apparent change of policy the US Department of Justice issued an arrest warrant for the terrorists who murdered Luken who was a US citizen. Until now the US government did not pursue Palestinian terrorists who targeted US citizens in Israel.

On today's show I will be speaking with Kay Wilson about the attack and the new development in US policy. We will also discuss the ongoing transfer of funds from US and EU to the Palestinian authority and the use of those funds to pay large salaries to terrorists who killed Israelis and tourists in Israel.

New time for A Hebrew in the Heartland, every Tuesday at 6pm Israel time.

On today's show I will be responding to email from listeners and explaining the origin of my name Ha'ivri, the Israelite or the Hebrew.

I will be sharing thoughts on my recent adventure in Washington DC to attend the AIPAC policy conference. How does AIPAC connect to the Heartland of Israel or does it?

Highlight of my program is the Shomron Day Experience. Come out to the Shomron and meet real people who live here and learn about the realities on the ground. Last week 60 American students came out for the first time. I took them to visit a factory in Barkan Industrial Park and to meet with Yossi Dagan, Chairman of the Shomron Regional Council.

Tune in to my show to hear more and to learn how you too can be a warrior for the land of Israel.
