High casualty rate among Ethiopian-Israeli🇪🇹🇮🇱 soldiers, with six fatalities so far in the war. - Around 170,000 Ethiopians live in Israel, making up 1.8% of the country's population, yet the casualty rate among Ethiopians (both dead and wounded) stands at 3.5%, double the proportion of Ethiopians in Israeli society. - Ethiopians have a high representation in commando units, with 10 out of 120 specially distinguished soldiers this year coming from that community. -Ethiopians are incredible soldiers, self-sacrificing, resilient, fearless, and willing to face the greatest risks.

#Irgun, formally known as Irgun Zvai Leumi, was a Jewish paramilitary organization active during the British Mandate for Palestine (1920–1948). Founded in 1931, it operated with the goal of establishing a Jewish state in Palestine. Objectives: #Irgun sought to end British rule in #Palestine and establish a #Jewish state, distinct from the policies advocated by mainstream Jewish leadership. Tactics: The organization employed various tactics, including #bombings and #assassinations, to resist #British authorities and advance its cause. Notable among its operations was the #1946 bombing of the #KingDavidHotel in #Jerusalem. Leadership: #MenachemBegin, a charismatic leader, played a pivotal role in #Irgun's activities. He became its leader in 1943, guiding the organization until its dissolution in 1948. Menachem Begin: Early Years: Begin, born in 1913, joined the Betar movement during his youth, fostering his commitment to Revisionist Zionist ideals. Irgun Leadership: Begin rose through the ranks of #Irgun and led the organization during a critical period, intensifying its efforts against British authorities. Political Transition: Following Israel's establishment, Irgun transformed into a political entity. #Begin founded the Herut party, later merging it into the #Likud party. Political Career: Begin's political journey included leading the opposition in the Knesset and serving as Prime Minister from 1977 to 1983. Peace Treaty with Egypt: A significant milestone was the Camp David Accords in 1978, resulting in the Egypt-Israel Peace Treaty in 1979, marking the first peace agreement between #Israel and an #Arab country.

To: THE PUREST PEOPLE ON EARTH Location: GAZA, PALESTINE Yes we are deeply saddened by the loss of around 400-600 innocent lives every day, but being on the right side, not the side of oppression, we are truly grateful to God. As captured on live TV, this famous reporter on Aljazeera channel “Mr. Wael Al- Dahdouh” stood strong without shedding tears despite the fact he lost his WIFE and two CHILDREN; this arises from the belief that the sacrifices are worthwhile for the liberation of PALESTINE. People in Gaza are considered the purest on earth and definitely deserving of a life free from oppression. The loss of those souls will not be gone like this, every day is closer to FREE PALESTINE. We are committed to rebuilding it to its former glory, similar to the time before the 1948 occupation, or perhaps even better, with a strong focus on upholding the highest human rights standards unlike the Israel government and military forces agenda.

Highlighting the service and sacrifice of diverse communities is crucial. Did you know that African Caribbean soldiers served to protect the UK in WW1? Or that soldiers came from the Sikh and Muslim communities? In the upcoming months, I will share inspiring stories of bravery from these men and women. Let's honour their service and sacrifice together. #DiversityMatters #MilitaryHistory #UKHistory #blackhistory365 #windrush75

Senior High Minister of Marketing @ The TechnoScribe | B2B and B2D Campaigns, Technical Content Management, Sales Enablement, Messaging, Persona-based Marketing
"Hezbollah, 'The Hezbollah Brigades,' 'Kata׳ib Hezbollah'.....AHHH who are these people?!" ::PAUSE:: Sound familiar? Yeah, that was me before I decided to study all these groups of assholes and get an idea of which group was which. But don't worry, you can also figure out which of these assholes is which if you follow me, Gedalyah Reback, with this free guide that tells you the difference between all these groups and why they all try to capitalize on each other's #branding. Unfortunately, the name does reference God, as the name literally means "Party of God." It is pulled from Quran 5:56, which fully translates as "Indeed, the party of God are the victors." " فإن حزب الله هم الغالبون " The name is extremely popular with Shiite Muslims, even before the incorporation of the most infamous group with the name, Lebanese Hezbollah (1982). It's partially related to the idea that Shi'a (another word for 'partisans', i.e. 'party') get their name from being the 'Party of Ali.' Today, there are a few groups that use it, like the Hezbollah Brigades/Kata'ib Hezbollah (Iraq) & Hezbollah Afghanistan (Afghanistan). But Lebanon's version is separate from these groups and the most organized. They came together after the 1982 Israeli invasion of Lebanon that aimed to drive the PLO from the area. There are images from that time where Israelis are treated as liberators, as the PLO had resettled in south Lebanon since being expelled by Jordan in the 1970 'Black September' civil war. Iran was EXTREMELY instrumental in forming the group, combining more religious elements of the Shiite militia Amal with anti-Saddam exiles from Iraq. The organization actually has a constitution, which at one point had a limit of two 3-year terms on its general secretary. Since GS Hassan Nasrallah has been in charge since the 80s, you can correctly assume he isn't holding any primaries any time soon. Hezbollah successfully drove Israel out of Lebanon in the year 2000, though it's debatable if Israel would have stayed in Lebanon as long as they did had they not been under attack that whole time. Instead of disbanding or at least incorporating its units into the general Lebanese armed forces, Hezbollah refused to disarm and has ignored, dodged, or threatened anyone raising the issue in Lebanon's government. In the months before the Hezbollah attack on Israel in 2006 that started the 2nd Lebanon War, Prime Minister Foaud Siniora was actually rallying domestic and international support to finally disarm Hezbollah. Many see that as the motivation for Hezbollah's attack later that year, to make themselves relevant again. Ever since, they have entrenched themselves and gotten involved in non-Israel-related conflicts, deploying thousands into the Syrian Civil War on the side of Bashar al-Assad. They probably have at least 100,000 rockets of different kinds in their stocks, along with a seemingly endless supply of drones.

ICYMI: Her Excellency Ambassador Dina Kawar, on CBS' Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan: - The Jordanian government along with Arab and Islamic countries are urging for a ceasefire to end the ongoing conflict. His Majesty has emphasized the importance of ceasing hostilities, because it is the only way forward. - If we cannot appeal to the moral compass of the world, let us consider the strategic implications of continued conflict. It is in everyone's best interest to prioritize peace and stability in the region. - "...we do not find it normal that all the hospitals are attacked. We do not find it normal that civilians are attacked and there is a collective punishment. This cannot go on." - The Hashemite Charity Organization, is working tirelessly on getting aid to those in need. We are urge the world and everyone who wants to help, to either help UNRWA that is on the ground, or by sending essential items through channels in Egypt or Jordan. - "The only way to be pro-Israeli is to ask for peace, and the only way to be pro-Palestinian is to ask for peace. And this is common grounds for both of us." - "We're calling for a ceasefire. We're calling to go back to negotiations." Watch the full interview here: https://lnkd.in/d3qck5MB

Watch this clip. The great Douglas Murray, when he describes young Israelis, is channeling our (with Dan Senor) new book, The Genius of Israel.
I teach high-tech executives the specs of speaking 🎙 | Co-Founder @TheSpeakingTrainer | Journalist | Media Consultant
I shared a stage with Douglas Murray and Col. Richard Kemp (whom I cheekily referred to as Israel's favourite goyim 🙈). I asked them some tough questions about Israel's offensive in Gaza. I also asked them why on God's earth they would put themselves in the proverbial (and sometimes actual) line of fire, risking their careers to support Israel so unwaveringly? Watch what Murray says. "Defending Israel has been the honour of my life. Extraordinary times produce extraordinary people and moments of great trial are when you produce new leaders, new heroes, new exemplars. You are producing remarkable young men and women, and they will be an example not just to the people of Israel, but to the people of the world." #israelhamaswar
