Tom and I lived in Israel for 33 years. We lived through wars, terror attacks, suicide bombings and terror arson. We ran to bomb shelters with our Israeli neighbors and donned gas masks during the Saddam Hussein era. At one period, suicide bombings in Jerusalem were a common occurrence. Many international workers left in times

In 2023, the core Jewish population—or the number of people identifying as Jews above all else—was approximately 15.7 million worldwide. That’s a pretty tiny number when you consider there are about 8.2 billion people alive today. Since October 7, 2023, that miniscule Jewish population has garnered a disproportionate share of the world’s hatred. It would

“The Zionist regime is a deadly, cancerous growth and a detriment to this region,” Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khameini declared in a speech in 2020. “It will undoubtedly be uprooted and destroyed.” In May 2024, Khameini attended the funeral of late Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi, who was killed in a helicopter crash.

As a reader of the Dispatch from Jerusalem—and one who has taken your stand with Israel—you are well aware of the firm biblical foundation upon which we as believers stand. Not only do we stand, but we let our voices be heard as Israel’s advocates, confident of God’s plan for His ancient and regathered people.

Scholars may differ on when and where dogs were first domesticated, but there is no argument that, of all the animals in the world, dogs occupy a special place in our lives. They keep us company, protect us and often work alongside us, earning the title of “man’s best friend.” I find it interesting that

Most Israelis spend two or three years of their youth as a soldier guarding the Promised Land and its people. It is a non-negotiable, a rite of passage that falls between high school and adulthood. While many around the world would frown on such a sacrifice of time and self, history has taught the Jewish

How do ethics (or morality) and dispute go together? Good question. Rising Israeli hip-hop artist Roy Kornblum seems to think they do. In a compelling video entitled “0.2%,” he captures the questions that plague many Israelis in a post-October 7 nation. Since that terrible Saturday, now referred to as Black Shabbat, Israelis have been trying
