Number 1: Great News From Washington
Could major change finally be coming to Washington’s Middle East policy?According to reporting cited by Laura Loomer, senior State Department officials reportedly want U.S. Ambassador to Turkey and Syria envoy Tom Barrack removed, and Barrack has allegedly been called back to Washington for “consultations.” Israel Hayom quoted Loomer citing a State Department source saying, “We want him gone so badly.”There has been no official announcement that Barrack has been fired, so hope must not be confused with confirmed fact. But his own statements raise serious questions about whose interests he has been advancing.Barrack declared that America’s interests and those of Syrian ruler Ahmed al-Sharaa, formerly al-Qaeda commander Abu Mohammad al-Jolani, are “exactly the same today.” He described Sharaa’s vision as “soft Islam,” while pressuring America’s Kurdish allies to surrender their autonomy to Damascus.Barrack has also repeatedly promoted Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan. He argued that America should give Erdoğan the “legitimacy” he needs and supported reconsidering Turkey’s participation in the F-35 program, despite Turkey’s purchase of Russia’s S-400 system and Erdoğan’s support for Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood.Barrack even referred to Israel as “occupying” the Golan Heights, despite President Donald Trump’s recognition of Israeli sovereignty there, before later walking back his remarks.American diplomats must pursue American interests, not legitimize jihadists, excuse Erdoğan’s ambitions, abandon Kurdish allies or pressure Israel for defending itself.President Trump and Secretary of State Marco Rubio understand the threat posed by jihadist ideology and the Muslim Brotherhood network. Hopefully, they are now asking whether Tom Barrack belongs in such an influential position.Watch, share and help expose the truth. America deserves diplomats who put America first, and America’s genuine allies deserve nothing less.Strengthen your faith in Hashem and stand with Pulse of Israel.Am Yisrael Chai!Join Our Whatsapp Channel: https://chat.whatsapp.com/GkavRznXy731nxxRyptCMv Follow us on Twitter: https://x.com/AviAbelow Join our Telegram Channel: https://t.me/aviabelowpulse Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pulse_of_israel/?hl=en Pulse of Israel on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/IsraelVideoNetwork Visit Our Website - https://pulseofisrael.com/ Donate to Pulse of Israel: https://pulseofisrael.com/boost-this-video/

Number 2: It’s Time for Jews to Go on Offense
For nearly three years I refused to spend every day chasing the latest lie about Israel. Not because the lies don’t matter. Because the Jewish people cannot win if we live forever in the defendant’s chair.In Hebrew, the word "Hasbara" is used when defending Israel. But that is the problem, it is defense. Pulse of Israel chose offense.Since October 7 Israel has been fighting a jihadi enemy that massacred families, burned people alive, kidnapped children, raped women, and celebrates murdering Jews. Not only Hamas in Gaza. Hezbollah in Lebanon. Houthis in Yemen. Jihadis in Judea and Samaria. A 1,400+ year jihad now backed by Iran, Qatar, and Turkey.While we fight that war, Western media, campuses, NGOs, and activists folded every allegation, famine, hospitals, aid, journalists, children, into one word: genocide. Holocaust inversion. Jews worldwide were assaulted, cancelled, and intimidated. Then contrary evidence appeared. The megaphone went quiet. Almost no corrections. Almost no apologies.Belgian philosopher Maarten Boudry documented that collapse. He paid for it: cancelled lectures, withdrawn invitations, attempts to get him fired. Liberal democracy is supposed to answer claims with evidence. Not with a mob.Expose every falsehood. Demand accountability. Then get off the stand.October 7 told us who the enemy is. Believe them. Israel did not choose that massacre. Once they chose war, the Jewish state had a duty to defeat those who hunt Jews.We will not apologize for IDF soldiers killing jihadis, destroying terror infrastructure, or defending Jewish families. We are home. We are sovereign. We have an army.The red-green alliance - radical progressives plus jihadi movements - is now inside the West. Israel is the front line, not a side story.The deeper victory is not only military. It is Jewish pride, identity, homeland, and faith in God. That awakening is already happening in Israel.Join Pulse of Israel. Share this. Strengthen the connection to our people, our land, and God.

Number 3: Israel Elections 2026: Yishai Fleisher Speaks for Otzma Yehudit - No Filter
Pulse of Israel will be sitting down with representatives from the various lists running in Israel’s 2026 elections, not to play studio referee, but so Israelis and our allies abroad can hear, in their own words, who intends to lead this country, what makes them unique, and what they will actually do in the Knesset.Avi Abelow sat down with Yishai Fleisher, international spokesman for Hebron, city councilman in Efrat in Gush Etzion, and now a candidate for the Knesset on Otzma Yehudit, the party led by National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir.Fleisher walks through some of Otzma Yehudit’s record in government over the past 4 years: law and order, the fight against terrorism, and refusing the language of apology that treats Jewish presence in our heartland as a public-relations problem. He talks about Itamar Ben-Gvir as he knows him, not the soundbites sold by Israeli and foreign media. Why Ben-Gvir is misunderstood, what the attacks on him are really for, and why a Hebron spokesman and Efrat councilman would put his name on that ticket.We also get out of the campaign studio and onto the mountain. Fleisher just took part in a historic visit to the Temple Mount / Har HaBayit on Rosh Hashanah, including the blowing of shofars and Temple trumpets in a way not experienced since Temple times, more than 2,000 years. That is not a side note. It is the same argument as the election: the Jewish people are not guests in Jerusalem, and geulah/redemption is not a metaphor.If you care about Israel elections 2026, Otzma Yehudit, Ben-Gvir, Hebron, Efrat, the Temple Mount, Jewish identity, and whether Israel leads or copies a collapsing West, watch the full interview.Join Our Whatsapp Channel: https://chat.whatsapp.com/GkavRznXy731nxxRyptCMv Follow us on Twitter: https://x.com/AviAbelow Join our Telegram Channel: https://t.me/aviabelowpulse Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pulse_of_israel/?hl=en Pulse of Israel on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/IsraelVideoNetwork Visit Our Website - https://pulseofisrael.com/ Donate to Pulse of Israel: https://pulseofisrael.com/boost-this-video/

Number 4: This Is What Winning Looks Like: Israel Just Approved a New City in Samaria
The other day, the government of Israel approved the building of a new city in the Shomron to be called SHIRA, on Highway 5, east of Rosh HaAyin, on the way to the city of Ariel. Tens of thousands of apartments will be built. On 9,500 dunams of land that will be home to over 100,000 Jews. Eastern Gush Dan. Half an hour to Tel Aviv. Next to the train.This didn’t happen by accident.Smotrich and Netanyahu. A partnership that has totally changed the map of Israel like never before. Approved over 100 new communities in Judea and Samaria. New cities. Around 160 farms reclaiming the land, stopping the illegal Palestinian Authority land grab backed by EU funding. What used to take twenty years now happens in weeks. Now Smotrich has announced doing the same thing in the Negev and Galil, two areas the Arabs have been taking over, making Jews the minority, with no government pushback. He will finally take care of that too. Anyone who knows the government bureaucracy, and the deep state power that has allowed the Arab takeover of the Galil and Negev, understands how many roadblocks Smotrich has to overcome. That is the revolution. That is the vision becoming facts on the ground.And it will stop the second Israelis hand the keys of government back over to deep state powers on the political left, today being led by Eizenkot.After October 7, after the massacre, after Nova, after the country burned, too many Israelis are still ready to vote for the bloc that would make Gadi Eisenkot prime minister. The same man who, as IDF Chief of Staff, hollowed out the army and sold the country the religion of containment, belittled the Jewish concept of rising up to kill those who want to kill you, and “quiet will be met with quiet.” That doctrine didn’t give us peace. It gave our enemies years to train, tunnel, arm, and walk into our homes.Eisenkot is not a leader; he’s a product. No spine, no charisma, no new thinking since October 7. Just the deep state’s latest packaged “savior,” sold to the public as the great hope for replacing Netanyahu.You don’t honor the murdered by putting the architects of weakness back in charge.You honor them by finishing the job: more cities, more farms, more Jews on the high ground, an army that deters instead of manages.Smotrich and Netanyahu delivered the building. The other side delivered the conception.If you want Shira and the next hundred communities, they need the votes. Momentum like this is a miracle. Stopping it would be a crime.Share this. The land is being built. We can’t hand the country back to the same political left security leaders who preached and practiced appeasement and failed us miserably. We need leaders who know we are facing a jihadi enemy and who have the vision to strengthen a proud Jewish State of Israel.These are redemptive times. We are living miracles in real time. There will still be ups and downs, but the trajectory is up and up, and it is breathtaking.Strengthen your emunah in Hashem. Follow me at the Pulse of Israel and share these truths. Vote with that clarity in the coming elections.Am Yisrael Chai!!!Join Our Whatsapp Channel: https://chat.whatsapp.com/GkavRznXy731nxxRyptCMv Follow us on Twitter: https://x.com/AviAbelow Join our Telegram Channel: https://t.me/aviabelowpulse Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pulse_of_israel/?hl=en Pulse of Israel on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/IsraelVideoNetwork Visit Our Website - https://pulseofisrael.com/ Donate to Pulse of Israel: https://pulseofisrael.com/boost-this-video/

Number 5: Jew-Hatred Is Going Mainstream in the Democratic Party
Wake up, Jewish Democrats.Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel, herself Jewish, told the Michigan Democratic Jewish Caucus that Jews have “a moral imperative to place the needs of the world above even our own self-interest and, yes, even our own survival.”That was not abstract ethics. The political context was November and the U.S. Senate race: pressure on Jews uneasy about Democrat Abdul El-Sayed, and tempted by Republican Mike Rogers. El-Sayed’s Israel record, and his “hurt people hurt people” line after the March 2026 terrorist attack on Temple Israel outside Detroit, already alarmed many Jewish Democrats.Nessel went further. Invoking Queen Esther, she suggested Jews may have to “sacrifice the comfort, safety and security and even the very future of our own people” to save humanity. She asked what good it is to defend Israel “if the planet upon which it rests is no longer inhabitable,” then: “Come November, what do your Jewish values tell you to do?”Esther risked herself to save the Jewish people. She did not risk the Jewish people to keep a party coalition intact.For too many Jews, Democratic affiliation has replaced Judaism as a civilization - Torah, peoplehood, history, Eretz Yisrael, continuity - with a universalist politics branded as tikkun olam. Caring for humanity is Jewish. Sacrificing Jewish survival is not. Ignoring Jew-hatred in party leadership is not a mitzvah.Nessel even admitted there are people in her camp who “seek the destruction of Israel as a Jewish state and place the Jewish diaspora in jeopardy.” Her conclusion was still: survival can come second.That is how Jew-hatred goes mainstream, when anti-Zionism is treated as morality, when the Red-Green alliance of the radical left and jihadi politics uses “Palestine” as the gateway, and when Jewish officials help sell it as Jewish values.Jewish survival is not selfish. Defending the only Jewish state is not selfish. Fighting antisemitism in your own party is not selfish.Wake up, Jewish Democrats. History has given enough warnings.
