Israel is winning

There’s a lot of uncertainty in the world these days. Trump’s authority on tariffs and other matters is being challenged in the courts. Putin is still fighting, and it’s not clear if he will agree to peace. Modi is strengthening ties with Russia and China, despite Trump’s tariffs against India for buying Russian oil. Israel has not yet gone full force into Gaza City, perhaps hoping that Hamas will make a deal. Iran is being hit with snapback sanctions, but the regime is still hanging on. Lebanon wants to disarm Hezbollah, but Hezbollah seems to be resisting.

Amidst all this uncertainty, here is something certain: Israel is defeating its enemies. And Israel will triumph.

Netanyahu’s coalition is standing up to the world, firm in its determination to destroy Hamas. Smotrich and Ben Gvir are making sure that Bibi doesn’t waver.

Despite enormous pressure from inside Israel and outside, Israel is forging ahead, strong, unflinching.

And here’s more certainty: G-d is protecting the Jewish people. We see this in the many miracles, as Hezbollah, Syria and Iran were hit hard.

Israel is showing that they are not afraid of the world. The Jewish nation continues to do what it needs to do to defend itself. And the Almighty is blessing these efforts with success.

Netanyahu constantly acknowledges the Almighty’s help. Nations of the world are seeing that G-d is watching over His people.

There’s a lot to be thankful for. And there is much reason for optimism. That much is certain.
