Israel is finally showing signs that the failed policies that led up to October 7th are over. Last week alone, Israel carried out some of the greatest operations in the history of the Mossad by first eliminating Hezbollah’s communication lines along with several top leaders by way of exploding beepers. The IDF then eliminated Ibrahim Aqil, a top Hezbollah terrorist responsible for the 1983 bombing of the US embassy and marine barracks in Beirut.
A full-blown war in the north of Israel seems imminent and we are here to analyze and discuss today’s developments. Also, we’ll discuss Hezbollah’s targeting of Israeli officials; the UN’s outrageous demand to cleanse Judea of Jews ethnically; Kamala’s statements regarding pressuring Israel; and everything that happened at the Israeli-American Council summit.

On today’s "Jerusalem Minute," JNS CEO and Jerusalem bureau chief Alex Traiman and Middle East correspondent Josh Hasten discuss the latest developments, as well as the two main arguments around the hostage talks; Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant’s challenge to Netanyahu; the IDF’s continued efforts in Gaza, Judea and Samaria; and the latest sanctions against Jewish residents of Judea and Samaria.

The world’s attention is on Qatar this week, where Israel and Hamas are discussing a deal to pause hostilities, even as the fight against the Palestinian terrorist organization rages on in the Gaza Strip.
