  1. Number 1: Kushner Is Wrong on Gaza

    Jared Kushner says Israelis are being “a little irrational” about Gaza. Then he admits: “We’re now starting to understand the scope of the militarization of Gaza. It is beyond your comprehension.” NOW starting to understand, after October 7, after nearly three years of war, after IDF soldiers uncovered Hamas tunnels, weapons caches, and command centers under homes, mosques, hospitals, and schools across the Gaza Strip? Then Kushner says something else: “We worked with Hamas for over four months.” Hamas supposedly signed a deal to demilitarize. Seriously? Hamas planned and carried out the October 7 massacre. It is a jihadist terror organization sworn to Israel’s destruction. You do not negotiate our children’s future with Islamonazis. You defeat them. Washington spent months talking to Hamas, now admits it is only beginning to grasp how militarized Gaza really was — and still calls Israelis irrational for refusing another “demilitarization” promise. Kushner has it backward. The old Gaza paradigm is dead. In 2005 Israel expelled nearly 10,000 Jews, destroyed 21 communities in Gush Katif, and pulled every soldier out of Gaza. We were promised peace. We got Hamas, rockets, terror tunnels, and October 7. Never again. That awakening is already in this Israeli election: Itamar Ben-Gvir’s push for a ministry to facilitate Gazan emigration; Ofer Winter; Moshe Feiglin; Netanyahu’s appointment of Gila Gamliel after President Trump raised relocation in January 2025. Avida Bechar of Kibbutz Be’eri, wife and son murdered on October 7, from the peace-seeking envelope — says Israelis will never be safe if one jihadi remains in Gaza. That is not irrational. That is October 7 clarity. Use American leverage on Egypt to open Rafah for those who leave. Destroy Hamas and every jihadist army. Correct 2005. Rebuild Jewish Gaza, bigger and stronger than Gush Katif. Jewish homes, fields, children, and yes, a beachfront in Jewish Gaza. We are not the irrational ones. Ignoring 1,400 years of jihad against non-Muslims is irrational. Strengthen your faith. Strengthen your Jewish identity. Strengthen your bond to our God-given ancestral homeland.

  2. Number 2: 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/

  3. Number 3: He Went to Purify Himself Before Yom Kippur. A Terrorist Murdered Him.

    My heart aches. Hours before the Yom Kippur holiday, the holiest day to the Jewish people, while I was out on IDF reserve patrol in the Judean Hills, we were placed on heightened alert after a deadly shooting attack near the Jewish community of Neve Tzuf in the Binyamin region of Samaria. Then came the devastating news: Netanel Shakron הי״ד, a father of six from Alei Zahav, had been murdered. The circumstances are heartbreaking. On the eve of Yom Kippur, the holiest day of the Jewish year, Netanel went with his eldest son to a natural spring to immerse and spiritually prepare himself for the holy day. A terrorist opened fire. Netanel was murdered. His son survived. Think about that son. He went with his father to prepare for Yom Kippur—and returned home without him. Yet while Jews continue to face terrorism in Judea and Samaria, so much international attention remains focused on the politically charged narrative of “settler violence.” Jews living in Judea and Samaria are raising families, building communities, praying and living in places deeply rooted in Jewish history and the Bible. This family went to a spring before Yom Kippur. A husband and father never came home. Netanel leaves behind a wife and six children. May Hashem comfort his family among the mourners of Zion and Jerusalem. May He protect the IDF soldiers standing guard over Jewish communities throughout Israel, Judea and Samaria. Netanel Shakron הי״ד. May his memory be a blessing.

  4. Number 4: Israel Cannot Be Stopped

    At the Pulse of Israel “From Victims to Victors” Conference, three powerful voices came together to discuss Israel’s future at a moment of historic transformation. In this panel, Hillel Fuld, Alex Traiman, and Topaz Ram examine what it means for Israel and the Jewish people to move beyond the mentality of merely surviving — and begin thinking like a sovereign nation determined to shape its own destiny. The conversation explores Israel’s security challenges, the battle for the international narrative, Jewish identity, national confidence, and the dramatic changes taking place in Israel and across the Middle East. After October 7, the old assumptions can no longer remain untouched. Israel faces enormous threats, but it also possesses military strength, national resilience, technological power, and a generation increasingly unwilling to apologize for Jewish sovereignty. The message of the From Victims to Victors Conference is simple: Jewish history cannot remain a story of persecution and reaction. After 2,000 years, the Jewish people are once again home, sovereign, armed, and responsible for defending their future. Watch this important conversation with Hillel Fuld, Alex Traiman, and Topaz Ram on why Israel’s enemies continue to underestimate the Jewish people — and why Israel cannot be stopped.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/

  5. Number 5: The Greatest Jewish Transformation in 2,000 Years

    The Jewish people are living through one of the greatest transformations in our 2,000-year history.In this powerful talk at the 4th Annual Pulse of Israel Conference, held at the Menachem Begin Heritage Center in Jerusalem in July 2026, Pulse of Israel founder Avi Abelow explains the historic shift taking place from victims to victors.For generations, Jews lived as a persecuted and powerless minority, dependent upon the goodwill of foreign rulers for our survival. Today, we have returned to our God-given, indigenous, ancestral homeland. We have sovereignty, an army and the ability to defend Jewish lives.Yet too many Jews still think and speak from the mindset of exile, constantly apologizing, seeking approval and allowing our enemies to define the narrative.That must change.October 7 brought unimaginable pain, but it also accelerated a profound Jewish awakening. Israelis rediscovered faith, identity, unity and national purpose. Soldiers entered battle with Torah, tzitzit and an extraordinary understanding that they were fighting not only for Israel today, but for generations of Jewish history.Avi challenges Jews and Israel supporters to stop approaching the world merely as victims asking for sympathy. We must proudly tell the truth, identify the evil confronting us and recognize the miraculous redemptive process unfolding before our eyes.This is not only a military struggle. It is a battle over Jewish identity, historical truth and the future of Western civilization.We are not merely studying Jewish history anymore. We are making it.Watch, share and join Pulse of Israel in strengthening Jewish pride, defending Israel with unapologetic truth and helping our generation move from victims to victors.Strengthen your faith in Hashem. Recognize the historic times we are blessed to live through. Accept your role in the Jewish people’s unfolding redemption.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/
