The economic unit of the State Attorney's Office has reached an agreement with former Knesset member Hanin Zoabi of Balad, together with 13 senior activists in the party, Channel 12 News reported on Sunday. As part of the settlement, Zoabi will be convicted of forgery and sentenced to probation and a fine. The deal has not yet been signed and is expected to be signed in the coming days. The Attorney General decided to prosecute Zoabi for forgery and fraud after rejecting the reasoning brought forward by her lawyers at a hearing held for her. The investigation dealt with suspicion of false reports and misrepresentations to the State Comptroller about the source of the funds received by the party and their presentation as donations from private citizens. Zoabi served in the Knesset for 10 years before announcing in January of 2019 that she would not seek re-election. Zoabi was notorious for her controversial, anti-Israel statements during her time as an elected member of the Israeli parliament. She has in the past said she views sovereign Israeli territory as "occupied" Palestinian territory. In one incident, she was reprimanded by the Knesset Ethics Committee after she said during a speech in the Knesset plenum that civilians in Gaza were "murdered by soldiers." Days later, during a debate on a bill authorizing the expulsion of the families of terrorists, Zoabi described terrorists as "freedom fighters". What's My Line? - Barbra Streisand; Tony Randall [panel] (Apr 25, 1965) [W/ COMMERCIALS!] MYSTERY GUEST: Barbra Streisand PANEL: Dorothy Kilgallen, Tony Randall, Arlene Francis, Bennett Cerf Yoni Netanyahu: A hero's story 45 years after Entebbe Yoni Netanyahu, the famed hero of the Entebbe operation, was killed in action 45 years ago on July 4. Benjamin Netanyahu's older brother was named Jonathan (Yonatan) and is usually remembered as Yoni. He died fighting anti-Israel terrorists on July 4, 1976 just as the world's oldest democracy celebrated its Bicentennial. Yoni died in a heroic effort which successfully freed over a hundred hijacked Jewish hostages in Entebbe, Uganda. America's commemoration of liberty shared the world's headlines with Israel's celebration of the liberation of the hostages. The daring of Israel's commandos captured the world's imagination like no other anti-terrorism action in history. Books and movies recall the Entebbe rescue but there's more to the story. Much more. It is not widely known that Yoni Netanyahu was a hero long before he commanded the Entebbe operation. He played a key role in many other crucial Israeli security operations exhibiting courage and valor in the most dangerous of circumstances. He was a living example to the world's statesman that terrorism can be beaten – if the nations of the world have the will to fight back. Yoni was born in New York into a family of dedicated Jabotinsky Zionists who greeted the news of the establishment of Israel by packing up and moving there in 1948. He returned to the U.S. in 1963 where his father, a distinguished Jewish Studies scholar, Benzion Netanyahu, (1910-2012), accepted a professorship in Philadelphia. After graduating high school in a suburb Philadelphia in 1964, Yoni returned to Israel to join the army and it was not long before he had worked his way up to the leadership of an elite paratrooper unit. The mid-1960s was a time of growing danger for Israel. The Palestine Liberation Organization, established in 1964 for the purpose of "liberating" all of "Palestine" from the Israelis had begun mounting terrorist attacks across Israel's borders—and those precarious borders indeed. In those days, before the 1967 war, Israel was just 9 miles wide at its strategic midsection, and all of Israeli's major cities were within striking distance of Yasser Arafat's terrorists. Yoni did not fear the possibility of losing his life in the war to protect Israel from its enemies. "Death does not frighten me," he wrote to a friend. "I do not fear it because I attribute little to a life without purpose. And if it is necessary for me to lay down my life to attain an important goal, I will do so willingly." The path that led to Yoni's renown within Israel's commando ranks may have begun in 1971 battling the Black September Organization, founded by Arafat's Fatah faction. One of Black September's first attacks was the assassination of Jordan's Prime Minister Wasfi Tal. One of the assassins earned a permanent place in the history of savagery by drinking his victim's blood in full view of photographers. In 1972, a Black September unit carried out the bestial murder of 11 Israeli athletes at Munich's Olympic Village. Yoni was a member of a commando unit sent the night of April 19, 1973 to Beirut to attack the planners of the Munich Massacre. Israeli commandos landed on a Lebanese beach and slipped into Beirut. Yoni and his unit made their way to the apartment of Black September leader Muhammad Youssef Al-Najjar (Abu Youssef). He had not been originally assigned to the mission, Yoni volunteered. The last to leave the apartment, Yoni grabbed a satchel of papers just as Lebanese police jeeps arrived. The papers contained operational plans for the PLO's terrorist network throughout Israel. Yoni's discovery undoubtedly saved hundreds of lives. Details of another example of Yoni's heroism are to be found in Moshe Dayan's autobiography "Story of My Life." Dayan recalls how Yoni suffered a serious wound in the Six-Day War and yet had returned to his army unit and fought valiantly in the Yom Kippur War, despite his permanent injuries. Yoni and his unit "stalked and killed more than 40 Syrian commandos who had landed behind our lines," wrote Dayan. After that Yoni was responsible for an extraordinary mission that rescued Lieutenant Colonel Yossi Ben Hanan from behind enemy lines. Again, Yoni volunteered. He had overheard a radio transmission about a severely injured tank officer and led his men on foot, braving a non-stop artillery barrage. Recalling the Ben Hanan rescue, Dayan wrote: "I do not know how many young men there are like Yoni. But, I am convinced there are enough to ensure that Israel can meet the grim tests which face her in the future." Dayan's memoirs were published before the Entebbe operation. Yoni's last name is not revealed by Dayan in the book. His portrayal of Yoni seems visionary in retrospect. Self Portrait of a Hero is a must read; it contains Yoni's letters to family and friends from 1963 when he first entered high school in the Philadelphia suburbs to just days before the rescue of hostages at Entebbe. His intellect, patriotism, compassion, dedication to duty and leadership are all on full display, amplifying the loss of someone who had just turned 30. The book has had a profound effect on its readers for decades. If you have not yet read it, do yourself a favor and get a copy. You too will be forever changed by it.

Incredibly, the UN is ignoring them. Western states must take "immediate measures" against the "systemic racism" of which blacks are victims, said Michelle Bachelet, UN High Commissioner for Human Rights. The same day of her speech another piece of news came in: A court in Pakistan sentenced another Christian to life in prison on the basis of blasphemy laws. On July 11, 2012, Ahmed Khan, an Islamic leader in Rawalpindi, filed a complaint that Zafar Bhatti sent him text messages insulting Muhammad's mother. He grotesquely accuses her saying that in Pakistan there is the death penalty, but it has never even been actually demonstrated. A year ago, in front of the Palace of Nations in Geneva, the seat of the UN Human Rights Council, Pakistani Christians held a composed and silent demonstration against the persecution in their country. But for the globalist agenda that accuses Western states of racism, the persecution of Christians is a great omission. "Stop the massacres", "Enough now" and "Our lives count", said Nigerian Christians and ecclesiastical leaders who gathered in London to demonstrate against the massacre of Christians in their country. They sent a letter to Prime Minister Boris Johnson in which they accuse the international mass media of "conspiracy of silence." If there is a body that conspires against them, where the lives of Christians obviously do not count because it knows very well what is happening, it is the UN, now embracing Black Lives Matter. The UN Human Rights Council welcomes states such as Sudan, where tens of thousands of women and children from predominantly Christian villages have been enslaved during jihadist raids; Pakistan, where Christians are condemned to servitude, and Mauritania, where two out of 100 people are still held in slavery. It is the United Nations Human Rights Council itself which, now, thanks to pressure from African countries, embraces Black Lives Matter. Following a pastor, his wife and children who had been burned alive at the hands of Fulani Muslims, Nigerian Reverend Ezekiel Dachomo appeared in a short video surrounded by a grieving crowd carrying the body of another Christian woman killed in the most dangerous country.in the world in which to be a Christian. He made a passionate appeal for help from the United Nations: "United Nations, your silence is getting worse. .. Please, please, please stand on the side of the helpless ... One of my colleagues, the Reverend, was slaughtered with his wife and children, and I was right there ... Now we are ready to make our last prayers, as an Islamic agenda is taking over the nation .... Women are dying every day, men are dying. What do you want us to do? ". But Ms. Bachelet, like other UN grand commis, was committed to caring about "systemic racism" in a democracy that twice elected an African American as president and even against Italy, where she wanted to send inspectors. For persecuted Christians, the UN's farce has the flavor of tragedy. Giulio Meotti is, an Italian journalist with Il Foglio, writes a twice-weekly column for Arutz Sheva. He is the author, in English, of the book "A New Shoah", that researched the personal stories of Israel's terror victims, published by Encounter and of "J'Accuse: the Vatican Against Israel" published by Mantua Books, in addition to books in Italian. His writing has appeared in publications, such as the Wall Street Journal, Gatestone, Frontpage and Commentary. Stand up to Critical Race Theory Didn't the US fight a Civil War just 156 years ago to debunk this garbage? What happened to 'all men are created equal? Make no mistake about it, the new Critical Race Theory (CRT) rolled out by the Revolutionary Democrats, is totally destructive to the United States of America. And it has taken over our educational system with frightening speed, indoctrinating our future generations to believe that the color of one's skin determines whether that individual is a racist. Black is good...white is bad. Sounds crazy? It is. But so were Adolph Hitler's theories about the superiority of his Aryan Germanic people, that they were superior to all other races. And where did that get us? This new CRT lunacy could lead us in that same direction... Disaster. And we'd better get hold of it now, defeat it, bury it and save our future. This is a dangerous and divisive ideology, one that assigns moral value to people on the basis of their skin color. But look where we are. This is now an officially state sanctioned crackpot theory. Didn't we fight a Civil War just 156 years ago to debunk this garbage? This Marxist race-based ideology that claims the United States is basically racist flies in the face of Martin Luther King Jr.'s vision of a color blind America in which all citizens are "not judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character." Our Leftist elected leaders and their zombie-like school teacher unions have now infiltrated lunacy wholesale into our schools, brainwashing a generation of our children to believe their "whiteness" is a sign of evil. A New York Times Magazine article introduced us to the "1619 Project" that falsely claims the United States was founded on racism and owes its current success to those slaves who arrived in this land in that year. In addition, they drumbeat that our founding fathers, being of white skin color, were all racists. This "1619 Project" crap must be factually confronted and defeated. Barack Obama, who ironically, was willingly and successfully indoctrinated for 20+ years in Rev. Wright's church of hate, claimed, "racism is part of our DNA." Without a doubt, he was referring to himself, not those who gave their lives to erase slavery and those who fought and died in subsequent wars to maintain the freedom of all Americans. The most basic of all American values is "equality," but the hawkers of CRT want to replace that with "equity." Equality means giving all Americans equal opportunity under the law to achieve success based on merit, hard work, accomplishment and determination. Equity, bull-horned by Progressive Marxists, separates Americans into racial groups ensuring equal results for all, using racial engineering, government discrimination and coercion to achieve success. Look how well school busing and affirmative action worked for black kids. They failed because CRT cripples black progress by demonizing hard work, planning ahead, accumulating savings, being on time and studying, as examples of "whiteness." This type of indoctrination encourages a perpetual cycle of failure, despair, dependency and resentment that leads to poverty, criminality and puts a red light to increased black ascendancy and success in our nation. We see the fury and eloquence of many of our nation's parents, both black and white, at school board meetings, as they show their anger at Critical Race Theory being taught to their kids by radically motivated teacher union members. They understand that part of the methodology of the Left is to destroy the family and have the government oversee their kids' upbringing and control their thought processes. We must stand up to the forces of evil that now seem to have emerged from the depths to enmesh our nation, to destroy it. We must start to stand up, to speak up, to wrest control of the government from them in the next election. And that's the job of everyone, including you. See you tomorrow bli neder We need Moshiach now!
