There is a lot of hopelessness in the world today. The people of Israel are reeling as the enemy, Hamas, slaughtered so many loved ones. We watched in horror as unbelievable atrocities were revealed. There is no one unaffected by the war, the increase in anti-Semitism and the increasing numbers of devastated families. Our hearts mourn with our Jewish brothers and sisters.
The nation of Israel is often misunderstood and misrepresented in the global media—many times deliberately. For example, when speaking of Israel’s efforts to bring an end to a deadly wave of terror attacks in Judea and Samaria, Minister of National Security Itamar Ben-Gvir made the comment, “The right to life precedes freedom of movement.” The outrage in the press was palpable. Ben-Gvir’s statement was interpreted—and communicated—as Israel punishing the Palestinians with increasing restrictions in the form of additional checkpoints in Judea and Samaria.
It became so intense that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued a statement of explanation. “Israel allows maximum freedom of movement in Judea and Samaria for both Israelis and Palestinians,” he said. “Unfortunately, Palestinian terrorists take advantage of this freedom of movement to murder Israeli women, children and families by ambushing them at certain points on different routes.”
