Christians can critique the State of Israel without being anti-Semitic, and of course, anti-Semitism should be condemned, said Roberts in a video after the Heritage Foundation received calls from some social media users to cut ties with Carlson: My loyalty as a Christian and as an American is to Christ first and to America always. When it serves the interests of the United States to cooperate with Israel and other allies, we should do so with partnerships on security, intelligence, and technology.
When Donald Trump arrived in Israel last week to celebrate his Gaza agreement, Israelis of all stripes fell over themselves to thank him for his efforts to end the war and bring hostages home. The Knesset was lit up in red, white, and blue; its members gave the president a two-and-a-half-minute standing ovation when he arrived. A Tel Aviv beach was decorated with a giant silhouette of his face.
Thousands of ultra-Orthodox Jews packed the streets and sidewalks for blocks around the Israeli consulate in New York City on Sunday to protest issues including a potential end of an exemption for religious students from compulsory service in Israel's military.

Among the deceased hostages whose bodies have yet to be returned are two Americans, Itay Chen and Omer Neutra. Hamas promised to return all 28 under the deal but stressed during the negotiations that it didn't know many of their exact locations. The group has said some are trapped under rubble, and it could take months to find all of them.
Italy entered September's international window with ground to make up in Group I, trailing Norway by nine points but holding two games in hand. They responded well, brushing aside Estonia in Bergamo before heading to Hungary, where they fought through a chaotic encounter against Israel. Gattuso's side looked to have thrown away a vital win after surrendering a 4-2 lead, but Sandro Tonali's stoppage-time strike sealed a dramatic victory and kept their qualification hopes alive.
In his Knesset speech, Trump went on to say that "the forces of chaos that have plagued the [Middle East] region are totally defeated." "The enemies of all civilization are in retreat," he said. Trump said that the "long and painful nightmare is finally over" for both Israelis and Palestinians. "This is a very exciting time for Israel and the Middle East," he said.
My friends, this is only a partial list, but it's enough to affirm what I've said time and again. Donald Trump is the greatest friend that the state of Israel has ever had in the White House.
Trump said he'd watched parts of a rally for the hostages in Tel Aviv on Saturday. The speakers included his daughter Ivanka Trump, son-in-law Jared Kushner, and envoy Steve Witkoff. The president said he'd spoken to the three about it afterwards. "It was an incredible rally. It was a great thing. Everybody is thrilled," he said. One aspect of the rally that gained attention online was that the crowd cheered when Trump's name was mentioned, but booed when Witkoff mentioned Netanyahu.
Erling Haaland found the net for the 10th consecutive game for club and country after twice missing a penalty in Norway's World Cup qualifier against Israel. The Manchester City forward scored either side of a two own goals as Norway take a 3-0 lead into the break at a politically-charged affair at Ullevaal Stadion in Oslo. However, Haaland saw his third minute spot kick saved by Daniel Peretz before the prolific striker was given a second chance
President Donald Trump announced that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has agreed to his plan to end Israel's war with Hamas in the Gaza Strip during a press conference at the White House that followed a meeting between the two leaders on Monday.

As Israeli representatives sat beside the Irish delegation in the vast hall of the UN General Assembly yesterday, Taoiseach Micheál Martin told leaders that Ireland would prevent members of the Israeli government from entering Ireland.
Microsoft has cut off the Israel Ministry of Defense's access to some of its tech and services after an internal investigation found the organization appeared to be using its tech to store surveillance data on phone calls made by Palestinians. The tech giant announced on Thursday that it made the decision to "cease and disable" certain subscriptions from the Israeli military. This affects subscriptions to Azure cloud storage and certain AI services.
Some of this bashing is never enough for you, you see. It doesn't matter how critical journalists are about Israel, it will never be enough for you. Because you want the rightyou want the right to suggest that Charlie Kirk was the subject of a hit job by Israel. You want the world to think that. That's why you said what you said.
