The News on the Israeli Street

The daily Corona update . . .

Please note that these numbers encompass from  8 pm yesterday until 8 pm today:

533,026 Israelis have been confirmed with the virus since the pandemic began last March.

There are 9,141 newly confirmed cases.

1,141 are in critical condition—an increase of 18

291 of the most critically ill are on ventilators—an increase of 11

3,892 have died–an increase of 46

There are currently 79,084 active Corona cases in Israel.

Israel has the dubious distinction of now ranking first in the world in the number of critically ill per one million citizens.

There have been outbreaks of Corona in 160 assisted living and nursing homes in the last two weeks with 1,098 new cases.

Palestinian terror in the last 24 hours . . .

Palestinian terrorists attacked Border Patrol soldiers near Al-Muay’ir. One fighter was badly wounded when hit in the face by a rock and is currently undergoing surgery at Hadassah Mt. Scopus.

Palestinian terrorists attacked Israeli motorists with “rocks” and Molotovs between Tapuach and Rachelim, Al-Muay’ir, between Sinjil and Ma’aleh Levanu, near the T-Junction in Gush Etzion, and at Hizma among two dozen locations.

Palestinian terrorists attacked buses at Otniel, Luban A-Sharqiya, and between Efrat and Tekoa.

Palestinian terrorists using Molotovs attempted to set fire to the security fence at Karmei Tzur.

Has Israel Ever Had A Better Friend Than Mike Pompeo*?

We at OneIsrael will be extremely sorry to see Secretary of State Mike Pompeo leave office next week.

Your humble servant doubts that there has ever been a stronger supporter of Israel in the U.S. State Department.

Or perhaps anywhere on the international diplomatic scene.

Just a cursory look at some of his tweets over the last 4 years speaks volumes (please note that these are screen shots of the tweets; the arrows on the right of each tweet will not move the text):

Foreign policy elites predicted the world would end if we moved our Embassy to Jerusalem, the eternal capital of the Jewish people and the State of Israel since the country’s founding. We did it anyway. No WWWIII. Sky still above us.

Same legal interpretation as the Regan Administration. Important to return U.S. policy to reason and balance.

I could not be prouder that the State Department convened the first-ever U.S. conference to fight these online haters in October 2019.

. . . it’s estimated that <200,000 Arabs displaced in 1948 are still alive and most others are not refugees by any rational criteria.

Thank you PM Netanyahu for all that you do to secure freedom and religious liberty in your country and in your region. You are a good and great friend.

We embraced the only nation in the Middle East that respects democracy, the rule of law, human rights, and freedom. Long may it ever be so!

Thank you Secretary of State Pompeo for all that you have done for Israel!
