UPDATE 9:00 AM ISRAEL TIME
May His Memory Be For A Blessing
Moshe Horn, 85-year-old resident of Kibbutz Hazorea, was murdered by the terrorist at the Tishbi Junction in the north yesterday. He was sitting on the passenger side of the front seat in the car which his 51-year-old son was driving when he was hit by bullets.
Also critically wounded in the ramming part of the attack was an 18-year-old soldier, a heavy truck driver in a IDF tank battalion. He remains on a respirator at Rambam Hospital in Haifa this morning. Below is a photo of the car the terrorist rammed into the bus stop:
The Insane Story of the Morning
It came to light yesterday that our soldiers who have been battling Palestinian terrorists in Jenin during an extensive operation were stopped six days ago from destroying terrorist assets because Palestinians in Jenin petitioned Israel’s High Court of Justice.
As we have often pointed out here at OneIsrael, anyone—including terrorists in Jenin, terrorists in Gaza, and even groups outside the country supporting terrorists—is able to petition the egregious High Court of Justice to take action against our IDF.
The IDF remains stalled in Jenin awaiting a Court decision.
Utter insanity.
Missile Attacks Last Night
At 9:00 pm last night, Palestinian Islamic Jihad terrorists launched missiles at Sderot from northern Gaza:
Two hours earlier at 7:02 pm:
Missiles were fired out of northern Gaza toward Sderot and Netiv Ha’Asara.
No Israelis were physically wounded in the missile attacks last night, but a number were treated for trauma.
Shortly afterward, the IDF issued this map demanding that any Palestinians in Beit Lahia and Beit Hanoun (where the missiles came from) evacuate immediately:
It seems like the IDF is playing whack-a-mole; the terrorists shoot missiles, we destroy the launch sites and surrounding assets.
It is simply unbelievable that after a year and a half of war terrorists in Gaza are still launching missiles at Sderot and surrounding communitities.
Speaking of unbelievable, the Houthis in Yemen sent another ballistic missile toward Ben Gurion Airport.
At 8:00 pm:
Again the missile was intercepted outside of Israel–the one above was intercepted above Jordan–but 183 communities received alarms for incoming shrapnel. Some missile pieces from this launch were found in Beit Shemesh.
By the way, you might notice that the shrapnel area extended to north Ashdod. Even though we live in the southern part of the city, we could hear the alarms.
This missile from Yemen came amidst reports that Yemeni Houthi leader Abdul Malik al-Houthi had been assassinated in a U.S. airstrike–reports that were unverified and likely untrue.
Summing up yesterday’s missile fire: 4 missiles fired from Gaza, 1 from Yemen–all intercepted.
On the Ground in Gaza
*The IAF eliminated Hussam Shabat, who ran one of the most popular social media channels in Gaza with half a million followers. The Qatari government immediately protested claiming that Shabat was a journalist for their Al-Jazeera Channel.
In reality, Shabat was a Hamas sniper in the anti-tank unit of the Beit Hanoun Battalion, ID number 713064.
*The IAF and Shin Bet have been carrying out the destruction of terrorist vehicles in Gaza during the last week. As of this morning, more than 100 Toyota pickup trucks and vans of the type used on October 7 have been destroyed.
*Hamas released another video of supposedly alive hostages yesterday in an effort to employ psychological warfare. The two hostages (who knows if they are still alive or not) in the video are Elkana Buhbut and Yosef Ohana:
They look haggard and in terrible condition.
On the hostage front, Egypt has come forward with a new proposal that calls for Hamas to release 5 hostages per week. Who knows whether it is going anywhere or not?
On the Ground in Lebanon
Another IAF targeted hit in southern Lebanon last night at Qaqaiyat al-Jisr. We do not have information yet about who was in the vehicles.
It is also being reported this morning from Lebanon that Hezbollah commander Hassan Kamal Halawi was killed by the IAF in Nabatieh province. Halawi served as the commander of the terrorist organization’s anti-tank unit.
On the Ground in Syria
The IAF struck military capabilities that remained at the Syrian military bases of Tadmor and T4. We say “that remained” because the IAF has hit these bases numerous times over the last month.
On the Israel “Political” Front
In recent months, we have often commented on the gross deterioration of civil discourse in Israel. We see and hear it everywhere: at school board meetings, in cafes, in parking lots, and elsewhere. People feel free to yell obscenities and insults in every direction.
But nowhere is this more in evidence than in politics.
And especially in the Israeli “Left”.
Israelis in this group have made it part of their daily routine to hurl every conceivable epithet at PM Netanyahu and everyone else in the government. Nothing is off limits. Everyone is “fair game.”
Take the comment two days ago from Assaf Agmon, one of the leaders of the “Kaplan” anti-Netanyahu movement:
“Netanyahu is the greatest oppressor to have risen up against the Jewish people since the Holocaust.”
Say what?
If this is not abominable enough, constant comments from Israelis like this and signs that they carry at anti-government demonstrations comparing our democratically elected government to Nazis have spawned similar signage and rants at anti-Israeli protests worldwide:
In Sydney:
In London:
In Qatar:
And others:
And:
And:
And on and on and on and on. There is no end to such images.
Your humble servant thinks about them every time we see such images here in “demonstrations” here in Israel, and listen to horrendous anti-Netanyahu rants at “protests” on television.
What has Israel come to?
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.
