May Their Memories Be For A Blessing
Everyday is a sad day that our hostages remain in the Gaza tunnels, but yesterday was particularly sad with two more “hostages” being declared dead:
We now know that Eliakim Liebman, a 23-year-old security guard at the Nova dance festival was killed on October 7th–but it had been hoped he had been taken hostage because his full body was never found. However, it turns out that DNA from his mouth (other body parts were elsewhere) was discovered this week by ZAKA in another grave of a murdered Israeli on October 7th.
Dror Or was murdered on October 7 according to newly released bodycam video made by the terrorists. His body is being held by the HamISIS barbarians. Dror’s wife, Yonat, was also murdered on October 7th but her body was left in the kibbutz after the attack. Their children Noam, 17 years old, and Alma, 13 years old, were kidnapped and released as part of the deal with Hamas in November.
The death declarations of Dror and Eliakim brings to 39 the number of “hostages” who are confirmed dead–to which we can add Shiri Bibas and her two children that HamISIS says are dead as well as the two soldiers from the 2014 war whose body parts HamISIS has held for ten years.
Thus, if you consider that Israel says that 133 hostages remain in Israel–and that 44 are dead, we are looking at 89 who are possibly alive. We should keep in mind that Israeli intel indicates that as many as 49 of these 89 are also dead.
The Disgusting Photo of the Day
Professionally printed signs like these have sprouted up all across Gaza today.
Is it any wonder that Israeli hostages are still buried underground with HamISIS receiving “solidarity support” from student groups across the U.S.? And exactly who is printing these signs for distribution in Gaza?
UPDATE 5:00 PM
On the Ground in Gaza
*The Rafah Operation has been put on hold for at least another week because our diddling government has decided to give HamISIS head Yahya Sinwar another 7 days to respond to the Egyptian proposal.
Of course, we all know that with each passing day the HamISIS battalions in Rafah can better prepare to attack our soldiers. But the bottom line is that the longer we wait to enter Rafah the less likely we are to do so.
In this latter context, a large number of groups such as Shavei Gaza Wall, Migdal, the Heroic Forum, and the Bereaved Families are protesting tonight against any government plan not to carry through with its promises to destroy HamISIS.
On the Ground in the North
More than 2 dozen missiles have been fired by Hezbollah out of southern Lebanon at the Israeli communities of Zivon, Klil, and Julis today.
OneIsrael’s Campaign For Our Soldiers
IDF soldiers on the ground need basic protective gear, armaments, and supplies.
Even during the recent Iranian attacks soldiers were forced to lie in open trenches to protect themselves from incoming missiles and drones as they have been doing for months on the Gaza and northern borders.
OneIsrael is now engaged in a campaign to help protect our soldiers. This campaign will extend to Shavuot.
Please consider donating to our campaign by clicking on the donate button in the right hand column on this page. All donations go directly to our soldiers.
Thank you to those of you who have already contributed to the protection of our brave men and women in uniform!
A student from Malawi, who had worked with an Israeli health volunteer in his country battling AIDS, came up to us as we walked down the street in the UC-Davis Picnic Day Parade and wanted to carry the Israeli flag.
