תמונת ניצחון

I wondered if I would ever see this day. It’s deeply gratifying to know that so many families will finally have their loved ones home. Today, twenty families are spared the unbearable pain of not knowing if they will ever see their loved ones again. But even in this moment of relief and happiness, my heart aches for those whose loved ones will not return alive. Bringing their bodies home is a must and an act of dignity and honors their memory forever. I can’t help but feel the presence of my son Andrew at this moment. I am profoundly grateful for the indomitable spirit of President Trump. This day would not have been possible without him.

BLESSED ARE THE PEACEMAKERS!

I am very proud to announce that Israel and Hamas have both signed off on the first Phase of our Peace Plan. This means that ALL of the Hostages will be released very soon, and Israel will withdraw their Troops to an agreed upon line as the first steps toward a Strong, Durable, and Everlasting Peace. All Parties will be treated fairly! This is a GREAT Day for the Arab and Muslim World, Israel, all surrounding Nations, and the United States of America, and we thank the mediators from Qatar, Egypt, and Turkey, who worked with us to make this Historic and Unprecedented Event happen. BLESSED ARE THE PEACEMAKERS! DONALD J. TRUMP PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA (TS: 08 Oct 18:51 ET)​​​‍​​‌‍​​‌‍​​​​​​‌‍​​​​‌‍​​​​​‌‍​‌‍​​​​​​​​​​‌‍​​​​​​​​​​‌‍​​​​‌‍​​​​​​​​​‌‍​​​​​​​​​‌‍​​​​​‌‍​​​​‌‍​​​​​​​‌‍​​​​​‌‍​​​​​‌‍​​​​‌‍

Thank you president Trump @POTUS . Thank you for your support, humanity, leadership and true friendship 🙏

My Letter to the Jewish Community – October 7, 2025 Dear brothers and sisters, I write to you today with a heavy but steadfast heart. Two years have passed since the horrors of October 7, 2023, when Hamas committed atrocities that shook the soul of humanity. Those acts of terror, against innocent men, women, and children, were not acts of faith, but of evil. They were crimes against G-d and against all that is sacred in both our traditions. I grieve with you. I stand beside you. I share your sorrow, and I honor your resilience. The days and months that followed revealed not only the depth of your pain but also the silence of many who once claimed moral kinship. Too many interfaith partners disappeared when you needed them most. That silence was a betrayal; not only of the Jewish community, but of the very principles of truth and compassion that faith demands of us all. Let me be clear: Hamas is not the voice of Islam. It is a branch of the Muslim Brotherhood; the same violent ideology that birthed ISIS and al-Qaeda. Its cruelty has hijacked the fate of Gaza, desecrated Islam’s image, and betrayed the Palestinian people themselves. Our faith commands us to stand against injustice… wherever it appears and whoever commits it. To my Jewish brothers and sisters: We share your grief, we honour your dignity, and we share your hope. I stand with you. And I pray that G-d grants comfort to the bereaved, freedom to the hostages, and healing to all who still carry the scars of that day. May Hamas be cursed at every sunrise and every sunset, for all eternity. May this remembrance strengthen our resolve to build bridges of courage and truth, grounded in faith and humanity that evil can never destroy. With peace, compassion, and unwavering solidarity, Imam Tawhidi

It was still dark, November 20, 2013 when the ambulance left Gaza through the Erez Crossing. Inside was a baby girl, barely one year old, her chest rising in fragile rhythm under the oxygen mask. Her mother sat beside her, silent, clutching a small blanket. The driver said the destination softly, almost apologetically: Schneider Children’s Medical Center, Petach Tikva - inside Israel. The Israeli doctors didn’t ask who she was. They simply began to work - tubes, machines, monitors. The baby’s infection had spread too far. For a few days, they tried everything. Then she was sent back home, still breathing, but fading fast. She died not long after. Seven months later, June 3, 2014, another ambulance crossed that same checkpoint - this time carrying an elderly woman, weak and pale, headed for a Jerusalem oncology ward. Four months after that, October 19, 2014, yet another woman was taken in through Ichilov Hospital in Tel Aviv, rushed into intensive care after a surgical complication. Each case, quiet, discreet - handled by Israeli doctors, coordinated through Israeli channels, and permitted despite the risks. Three medical rescues. Three acts of mercy. And every one of those patients belonged to the same family: the family of Ismail Haniyeh, the leader of Hamas. Yes - the same man whose organization was firing rockets at those very cities while his loved ones were being treated in their hospitals. We all know stories like this in Gaza - whispered, denied, but never forgotten. The same people who condemn Israel in speeches will secretly call Israeli coordinators when their relatives fall sick. And the same society that depends on that help will mock anyone who admits gratitude. It’s not just hypocrisy. It’s identity confusion - a culture that fears honesty more than hunger. From childhood, we’re taught that aid from Israel is humiliation, and that violence redeems it. So when we receive medicine or electricity, we must repay it with anger to prove we haven’t betrayed “the cause.” Our leaders understand this perfectly: guilt keeps the people obedient. As long as we’re torn between needing Israel and hating it, they stay in power. The West calls these stories “exceptions.” They’re not. They are the rule - a system built on contradiction, where the same movement that sends its daughters to Tel Aviv for treatment sends rockets to destroy Tel Aviv the next day. We have normalized madness. Our freedom won’t begin with revenge. It will begin with truth. When we can finally say, without fear, that an Israeli doctor tried to save a Palestinian child, and that this does not make us weak or ashamed, we’ll start to heal. Because dignity is not found in death or denial - it’s in the courage to face our own reflection.

WE MUST REMEMBER OCTOBER 7

Yuval Raphael won second place at Eurovision 🏆 Violent demonstrators attacked Yuval’s performance. Thousands of protesters screamed outside the venue. People tried to storm the stage. They sprayed paint at security guards. And forced event organizers to evacuate the Israeli delegation to safety. Yuval survived a massacre on October 7th and she not only survived this, but she shined. We’re so proud of you Yuval. ✨🇮🇱❤️
