"I'm appalled by the murderous shooting attack at a Hanukkah event in Sydney, Australia," Sa'ar wrote. "These are the results of the anti-Semitic rampage in the streets of Australia over the past two years, with the anti-Semitic and inciting calls of 'Globalise the Intifada' that were realized today. The Australian government, which received countless warning signs, must come to its senses."
News of the attack did not go unnoticed by the President, who responded with strong words on Tuesday for the judicial system in Chicago, which allowed the attacker with 72 prior arrests to continue roaming the streets. Trump lambasted "liberal judges" and Chicago authorities for creating lawlessness and allowing crime to run rampant in the city, calling the situation "out of control."
"Singling out the Bible in this way is discriminatory and deeply ill-informed. To suggest that the crucifixion story involves 'sexual violence' is not just inaccurate, it’s a profound misreading of the text. The account of Jesus’s death is not a tale of trauma, it is the ultimate expression of love, sacrifice, and redemption, central to the Christian faith."
By God's hand, many who were indifferent to the truth are being drawn to the Author of truth: Jesus Christ. Are believers prepared for this opportunity? The church needs to be equipped to stand firmly with the right foundation—ready to give an answer for the hope that we have and ready to make a defense when faced with hostile anti-biblical ideologies and false teaching.
In another blatant display of bias against the Jewish State, Israel's delegation to the United Nations was forced to opt out of attending an upcoming Security Council meeting on Gaza, due to the UN's decision to schedule the critical meeting on the Jewish feast of Rosh Hashanah.
"What a tragedy. It has been announced that Charlie Kirk has died after being shot during an event at Utah Valley University today. This young man loved his country and invested his time and energy in trying to make it the best it could be. He stood boldly for conservative values and defended free speech for all of us. Most importantly, Charlie loved the Lord Jesus Christ."
Two children (8 and 10 years of age) have been killed, and at least 17 others were wounded on Wednesday morning after a gunman, identifying as "transgender," opened fire on the stained-glass windows of a church during a "back-to-school" service.

A large group of residents in Germany, including hundreds of Christians, formed a human chain around a synagogue in Munich to protect the Jewish community from a mass antisemitic demonstration taking place outside during Shabbat prayers.
For the women who have previously been affected by the unfair playing field, the University has promised in the agreement to strip male swimmer "Lia Thomas" of the titles, giving them instead to the female athletes he competed against.

While Israel has been tremendously effective in crippling Iran's proxies, Tehran's ambitions to obtain a nuclear weapon represented an even greater threat with the potential to annihilate the world's one and only Jewish State. "Iran has said that the Jewish people should be erased from the face of the earth," Graham explained. "If they get an atomic weapon, that's exactly what they will do."
Iran launched several volleys of ballistic missiles toward Israel on Friday and Saturday, with sirens repeatedly sounding across Jerusalem and central/northern Israel, sending millions into bomb shelters. The United States worked to protect Israel from incoming ballistic missiles by assisting the Jewish State in its efforts to intercept the projectiles.
Detailing the far-reaching extent of the operation currently unfolding in Iran, the Prime Minister stated, "We struck at the heart of Iran's nuclear enrichment program. We struck at the heart of Iran's nuclear weaponization program. We targeted Iran's main enrichment facility in Natanz. We targeted Iran's leading nuclear scientists working on the Iranian bomb. We also struck at the heart of Iran's ballistic missile program."
"The violent mob assaults on ICE and Federal Law Enforcement are designed to prevent the removal of Criminal Illegal Aliens from our soil; a dangerous invasion facilitated by criminal cartels (aka Foreign Terrorist Organizations) and a huge national security risk," Hegseth wrote. "Under President Trump, violence & destruction against federal agents & federal facilities will NOT be tolerated. It's common sense."
As the national spotlight continues to expose inappropriate, sexually explicit, and anti-Christian content in schools, many parents have opted to remove their children entirely from public education.
