Hezbollah head Naim Qassem acknowledged Saturday that the Lebanese terror group had lost its arms supply route through Syria following the toppling of Bashar al-Assad’s regime nearly a week ago by a sweeping rebel offensive. Qassem didn’t mention Assad by name in his televised address, and said the group “cannot judge these new forces until they stabilize” and “take clear positions,” but said he hoped that the Lebanese and Syrian people and governments could continue to cooperate. “Yes, Hezbollah has lost the military supply route through Syria at this stage, but this loss is a detail in the resistance’s work,” Qassem said. “A new regime could come and this route could return to normal, and we could look for other ways,” ...

Senior Israeli officials reportedly held secret talks with Jordanian military brass late last week on the fallout that arose from the ousting of Syrian president Bashar al-Assad from power, as regional powers sought to address worries of rippling instability in the wake of the lightning overthrow of the regime. The meetings held in Jordan on Friday largely revolved around possible threats posed by the jihadist force that pushed Assad out and took over Syria, as well as countering Iranian attempts to smuggle weapons overland to Palestinian terror groups, according to several reports in Hebrew language media Saturday. Shin Bet director Ronen Bar and Maj. Gen. Shlomi Binder, head of the Israel Defense Force’s Military Intelligence Directorate, represented Israel at the talks, accordin...
Irish Prime Minister Simon Harris says that the decision by Israel to close its Dublin embassy is “deeply regrettable.” “I utterly reject the assertion that Ireland is anti-Israel,” Harris writes on X. “Ireland is pro-peace, pro-human rights and pro-international law.” “Ireland wants a two state solution and for Israel and Palestine to live in peace and security. Ireland will always speak up for human rights and international law,” he adds. Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar announced that he would be closing the embassy earlier today, citing the “extreme anti-Israel policy of the Irish government” as his reason for doing so. Israel recalled its ambassador in May after Ireland became one of three EU countries that said they w...

Davidsonville, MD - Dec. 13, 2024  -  Former Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan on Friday confirmed he saw what appeared to be dozens of large drones in the sky above his Anne Arundel County home and went on to slam the federal government's "negligent response" amid growing concerns over similar sightings. In a statement posted on X, accompanied by a video of the unidentified objects in the night sky, Hogan said he witnessed the activity around 9:45 p.m. and it lasted for about 45 minutes. "Like many who have observed these drones, I do not know if this increasing activity over our skies is a threat to public safety or national security," Hogan said. "But the public is growing increasingly concerned and frustrated with the complete lack of transparency and the dismissive atti...

Baltimore, MD - Dec. 13, 2024  - If the latest consumer price index is any indication, inflation is once again rising. It's one reason why Baltimore City's Department of Public Works proposed a multi-year utility rate increase. The department says the price hike is needed to maintain "the financial sustainability of the City's aging water and wastewater system." DPW will officially make the proposal before the Board of Estimates on December 18, setting up a potential vote on January 22. If approved, by fiscal year 2027, most Baltimore City households would see their monthly sewer and water bills increase by $37.69. For example, during fiscal year 2025, a sewer and water bill normally costing $130.21 will go up $12.58 totaling $142.79. That's an overall increa...

Baltimore, MD – Dec. 13, 2024 – (BZD) Last night, Baltimore Hebrew Congregation hosted an event featuring speakers who perpetuated misleading and divisive narratives.One speaker discussed supposed “persecution” while also admitting to the full rights she enjoys as an Israeli citizen—attending university, renting apartments, and more. She also highlighted differences in airport questioning, framing Israel as discriminatory, without acknowledging the security realities that justify these measures.The most powerful moment, however, came when a brave Israeli woman stood up, emotionally demanding answers about October 7: Where are our babies? Our hostages? The panel remained silent, failing to address the atrocities committed against innocent Israelis by Hamas.BJL ...
