I'm speaking this week at several Jewish communiti I'm speaking this week at several Jewish communities in South Florida in commemoration of October 7th and the past year. I've met so far with great friends of Israel and the Jewish people Mayors, firefighters, rabbis and members of the Jewish and non Jewish communities here have all shown their great support in out darkest hours. I came to share some of our experiences from the last year, the stories of heroes in Israel and thoughts about our past and future. I told some people last night over dinner I feel like the bird from Bialiks song who carried the news from Eretz Yisrael to the Jews in the diaspora.. I feel great honor and responsibility in doing this A few more talking events left until the end of this week. no tropical storm will stop us... Looking forward #SeeIsraelYourWay #visitisrael #amisraelchai #neveragainisnow #october7
One of our missions in the Kibbutzim, a few weeks One of our missions in the Kibbutzim, a few weeks into the war, was to try and save memories from homes that were destroyed and the families won't be able to come back. In two homes I found these Be'eri newsletters. The dates are October 7, 1973 - a day after the Yom Kippur war broke out and October 17, 1973, Simcaht Torah of that year. 50 years later, the same words apply - war, battles in the air and on the ground, bloodshed, these bitter scenes repeat. An attack on Israel that caught us by surprise... It was chilling to find it. What have we learned in the past 50 years? How will the next 50 years look like? We have a chance to reshape our future here in Israel and the Middle East I pray that we use this chance in the right way #october7 #neveragainisnow #hamasisISIS #HAMASisGaza #SeeIsraelYourWay
October 7, 2023 VS October 7, 2024 We're in a tot October 7, 2023 VS October 7, 2024 We're in a totally different place. While Israel got back on its feet and has hit back our enemies, many governments around the world have changed their tone. I prefer live Jews without the worlds empathy then all the world empathy to dead Jews. #neveragainisnow #SeeIsraelYourWay #october7

I was honored to join a @jnfca mission last week, I was honored to join a @jnfca mission last week, looking where they can help in developing and creating a better future for Israel We visited the north and the south, we visited shelters and hospitals. We met with people who were surprised we came to them out of all the people in Israel who need help in this time. Despite the news, this group of incredible and generous people came to support Israel It was a great honor! Planting seeds of hope for Israel's future. I also got to plant a tree at the Nova site. The Jewish people will be growing bigger and stronger! Am Yisrael Chai @kkl_jnf @jnftoronto #SeeIsraelYourWay #visitisrael #viptours #solidarity #jnf
Zara Ismaili is an Iranian woman standing and defy Zara Ismaili is an Iranian woman standing and defying the Iranian regime by singing in public and without a Hijab. She is a proud woman. She was arrested a few days ago and disappeared in Tehran jail. Pro-Hamas people in the Western world support the Iranian regime because they see it as an opposition to 'the Western axis'. Turning a blind eye to the death of thousands of Iranian people to allegedly oppose Imperialism.. People like Zara are seeking basic rights and are being oppressed by the evil regime of Iran. People tolerate such evil in the name of fighting Israel in another fake human rights stand.. When you support Hamas, you support Hizballa, support Iran. You support oppression. Try speaking your mind freely against those regimes. Look how women are treated, rights of minorities, LGBT, religious freedom. No tolerance at all. Stand with Zara and people fighting crazy, extreme Islamic regimes. #SeeIsraelYourWay #visitisrael #Jerusalem
אין לי תמונה הירואית לסיים איתה את הפרק הזה. שעות אחרונות של משמרת אחרונה של מילואים שהתחילו אי שם בתחילת מאי... 90 יום ארך הפרק הזה. 90 יום של חוסר ודאות, של שעות ארוכות, של לחץ לעיתים, של אחווה מיוחדת. 90 יום עם אנשים מדהימים ו90 יום של ילדים מתגעגעים. 90 יום שאסתי אומרת לי שזה בסדר, שהיא מבינה ו90 יום שאני מתלבט אם סדר העדיפויות שלי נכון... הנה תם עוד יום קרב וערבו, אך לא תמה המלחמה. דרך ארוכה עוד לפנינו ומי יודע אם לא ניקרא שוב ביום ראשון הקרוב, או זה שאחריו, או זה שאחריו... בעוד כמה שעות תזרח השמש ויתחיל יום חדש. המלחמה עוד גועשת אבל אני אנסה למצוא קצת שקט. לתת ביטחון לילדים, אני בבית. לאסתי קצת לנשום, אני בבית. להזכיר לעצמי, עם תיק מילואים מתחת למיטה, אני בבית. Estee I'm coming home!
A reminder: 17 years ago Hamas took control of the A reminder: 17 years ago Hamas took control of the Gaza Strip. They handcuffed, blindfolded and tossed PA people off rooftops, shot them and dragged the bodies in the streets. This is what they did to Palestinians. So don't give me any BS that they are fighting the Israeli occupation Hamas are a radical Islamic organization living by the ISIS agenda who brought destruction and death upon themselves and upon their own people. Call it by its name! #HAMASisGaza #hamasisISIS
Around the world people are already condemning thi Around the world people are already condemning this amazing Israeli rescue operation. 🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱 Non of these people are thinking for one second to condemn Hamas. Look how much destruction you have brought upon your people! Just release the hostages and finish with this, for the sake of your people! They all know Hamas couldn't care less for the Palestinians but for themselves. And just btw, an important reminder... The 4 hostages were rescued from private family homes.. Yes, those often referred to as 'uninvolved'. Am Yisrael Chai

Was home for Yom Haatzmaut so went to mark it in a Was home for Yom Haatzmaut so went to mark it in a special way. A moving transition ceremony from Memorial day to Independence, opposite the walls of the old city. This year was even more meaningful. As the boys had a hard time staying we ended up strolling through the nearby neighborhood on our way home. Also my attempt to bake a zionist bread 🇮🇱😉 #SeeIsraelYourWay #Jerusalem #yomhaatzmaut

Two weeks, two more missions. Supporting, hugging, Two weeks, two more missions. Supporting, hugging, crying, laughing. Standing together. This is what family is all about Some of places we visited this time were Hostage square, Netiv Ha'asara, Nachal Oz, Sderot, Netivot, and a very uplifting BBQ with Soldiers just before they go to war. That's what family is is all about #SeeIsraelYourWay #amisraelchai #standtogether
Two months ago I came out of Miluim (reserve duty) Two months ago I came out of Miluim (reserve duty) thinking I should prepare for long period of unemployment. To my surprise, more or less since, I've been guiding different solidarity missions coming to bear witness, show support, volunteer with farmers, share the pain and hope of Israel and the Jewish people. We've visited wounded soldiers and bereaved families, worked in the fields and aid distribution centers, celebrated bat mitzvah with girls evacuated from their homes and BBQ'd for soldiers in the field. We witnessed the destruction and atrocities as well as the resilience and big hug extended by the Jewish people and friends. I can't express how grateful I am to be in my position and job. Being able to experience all of this from first hand. To see not only the depth of darkness but also share the light. To be part of the Israeli side but also walk alongside diaspora Jews as they pull their chair to the table and are adding their part to the story. We're writing these days the latest chapter in the story of the Jewish people, and these solidarity missions and physical, and more important, spiritual support brought to us from the communities abroad is a powerful addition. Everyone we meet, from soldiers in rehab who were severely injured, evacuated families in their modern day refugee camps in hotels, families waiting for their loved ones to return to all the heroes who were not born with a cape, but just stood up to the mission in front of them - they all feel me with pride and respect. They all show the spirit which isn't just words - Am Israel Chai Like I say on the bus, we don't know how long this story is and what part of it we're at. Is this just the beginning? Did we get through the half? But we do know the unity that came out to shine and show the way. We won't go back to October 6. What's seen can't be unseen anymore. On October 7 our enemies didn't distinguish right or left, religious or not. For them it was all about killing Jews and Israelis. We can't go back to October 6. We're in this together. Thank you for letting me be part of your life I feel like I'm in a huge group therapy we all need. And a big hug. #SeeIsraelYourWay
Nature has its own way of showing us. The fields o Nature has its own way of showing us. The fields of blood have started to blossom. I'm not so sure what this makes me feel.. The pain is still present, the war is still on, the hostages are still not home and we're still waiting. But the flowers are growing out of the same ground, like every year at this time.. #bringthemhomenow #SeeIsraelYourWay #amisraelchai
This is a sad day today as we learn about so many This is a sad day today as we learn about so many Israeli soldiers killed, and it hits very close to home. The names and where they are from show that this hits close to home to all Israelis. From cities, villages, Kibbutz and settlements. Jewish and Arab, religious and secular. From Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, the Galilee in the north and as south as the Negev, I can imagine these people had different views on life and about how this country should be , but they all were part of one unit. They came together to defend their homes and fight evil. This is a tragic day, so painful. We pray this spirit of unity these heroes represent carries on to the rest of the country and the pain isn't in vane. 💔💔 #SeeIsraelYourWay #amisraelchai #idf #jewishunity #israel🇮🇱🇮🇱
In the month that's past since my release from res In the month that's past since my release from reserve duty I've been busier than I thought. I was expecting a lot of down time and time with the family. We went out on some picnics and spent time together, but than I discovered that many support delegations and individuals have made their way here. So I've also been showing them around and visiting many places. We've gone to the rehabilitation wards to visit wounded soldiers, we met with people who were evacuated from their homes in Sderot, Kfar Aza, Nir oz and other communities affected by the war. We met with heroes who saved so many lives and also relatives that had their family stolen from them. Some of these activities were very moving, like a bat mitzvah ceremony for 40 girls from Sderot who are now living in modern day refugee camps in Eilat. We saw the children, some who were kidnapped and came back, trying to get some comfort from the animals in therapy. There are so many options to help like supporting families that have a father or husband still in reserve duty and farmers who are missing their workers and are worried their entire business is going down. What's amazing in my eyes is that these activities were done by Jews who came from abroad, strangers, who came to give a hand and offer a hug to their extended family here in Israel without even knowing them. This isn't regular tour guiding as the story told isn't one from the past. It is happening as we go. This is the moment we are writing and adding the next chapter to the story of the Jewish people. I don't know what more this war is going to bring, but I know that it's brought some very special moments already.
I spent the weekend with search & rescue officers I spent the weekend with search & rescue officers and commanders to be. We held discussions, talked about past and current events, shared stories of heroism and the price paid. What can I say... These guys are amazing! We should be proud to have such committed and great young officers who are going to lead the next generation One of the things that was very present is the fact that we were having this weekend during the war that's still raging and how it effects us all. We are now writing the new chapter in the story of the Jewish people! #SeeIsraelYourWay #idf #searchandrescue
