The United Nations General Assembly adopted a resolution on Wednesday proposed by the Palestinian Authority, calling for sanctions and an arms embargo against Israel.

Among the notable supporters of this resolution is France, while the United States opposed it. Germany, for its part, chose to abstain...

He referred to the upcoming elections. ''I'm proud to stand with Joe Biden. I'm not asking who you are voting for in 2024, and perhaps I'm on a different team than some of you politically, but I'm absolutely on your team about Israel." Fetterman also spoke about his o...

In his final days with his beloved nation, Moshe tries to give proper instruction to his beloved people.   “Now if you give ear to the voice of the Lord your God, and keep with care all these orders which I have given you today, then the Lord your God will put you high over all the nations of the earth: And all these blessings will come on you and overtake you, if your ears are open to the voice of the Lord your God.

A blessing will be on the fruit of your body, and on the fruit of your land, on the fruit of your cattle, the increase of your herd, and the young of your flock. A blessing will be on your basket and on your bread-basin.  You shall be blessed when you come and blessed when you depart...
