Help for Broken Vertebra

The first clinical trials of a new and minimally invasive procedure for vertebral fracture reconstruction have recently been started at the Beilinson Hospital in Petah-Tikva. The new method uses a smart implant made of Titanium that is inserted into the spinal cord of the patient using a small tube. The implant, called Bidex, grips a broken vertebra, and creates scaffolding, which lifts the vertebra up in order to allow the insertion of a special “glue” which is used to repair the broken vertebra.

Salt-Tolerant Plants – An Agricultural Revolution

The productivity of crops is greatly affected by salt stress. The progressive salinization of soil, estimated at around 20% of irrigated land, has made the genetic improvement of salt tolerance an urgent priority for the future of agriculture. Salt tolerant plants can facilitate use of marginal areas for crop production or allow a wider range of sources of irrigation water.

“I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished.” Matthew 5:18, NIV

De-Icer For New Car Models

As an Israeli, Solomon Franco had never experienced an iced-over windshield until he moved to London. After painstakingly scraping the ice off, he wondered how it was possible that humanity had developed the technology to reach the moon, but still had not figured out a way to automatically clear windshields of snow and ice.

Move Zionist Regime to Europe

More than once Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the president of Iran, has publicly denied the Holocaust: “They have created a myth with the name of ‘Holocaust’ and consider it to be above God, religion, and the prophets.” Addressing an international summit of nearly 50 Muslim heads of state, he said, “Some European countries insist on saying that Hitler killed millions of innocent Jews in furnaces. We don’t accept this claim.”

3-Minute Bread! Matza Make Your Own

By Charleeda Sprinkle

“On the fifteenth day of the same month is the Feast of Unleavened Bread to the Lord; seven days you must eat unleavened bread” (Lev. 23:6).

Just about the first thing you think of when you think of Passover or Pesach is matza, the unleavened, cracker-like bread eaten during the eight-day festival. Why do I say eight when the above Scripture says seven? First comes Passover, commemorating the day the lamb was slaughtered and eaten the night before the Israelites left Egypt. The seven-day Feast of Unleavened Bread immediately follows, celebrating the actual Exodus.

Why Recognize Israel?

In an interview aired on Al-Manar TV on the day of Hamas’s victory, Hamas leader Mahmoud AI-Zahar put the organization’s principles forward very clearly, including plans to continue with terror.

True Tzedakah

Any of you who’ve visited Israel (or lived here) know what it’s like to be approached by the insistent, persistent beggars of Jerusalem’s city streets. Day by day, I encounter those who have grown to be familiar faces: the woman who wanders Ben Yehuda crying about her babies who do not have food or diapers; the double amputee who sits in his wheelchair in front of my favorite bagel shop; the gentleman who sleeps by my bus stop, trash-bags full of his belongings heaped awkwardly around him.

Supporting Israel Is In Again

With the rise of Hamas to power in the Palestinian Authority (PA) and the nuclear threat posed by Iran and its renegade president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, supporting Israel is suddenly back in style. Israel usually finds itself isolated among the world community, and Yeshua (Jesus) even said that it would become hated of all nations (Matt. 24:9). Former Israeli Ambassador to the United Nations (UN) Dore Gold even commented recently that being the Israeli ambassador to the UN can at times feel like the loneliest job in the world. But now with terror groups and sovereign states threatening Israel with total destruction, Israel is enjoying support from countries like it hasn’t seen since before the 1967 Six Day War.

Syria And Iran Sign Pact

Syria has agreed to store Iran’s nuclear material, and Iran will grant asylum to Syrian officials implicated in the murder of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Harriri, according to Jane’s Defense Weekly, a London-based defense magazine. The two countries signed a strategic accord to help each other resist international pressure regarding their weapons programs and misdeeds.

“I Want to Stop Being So Scared Every Moment”

When Tahel Maman, 4, comes home from kindergarten, she crawls under the kitchen table and stays there. When this behavior began last year, her mother, Ofra, thought it was a game. But after some cajoling, it turned out it was the girl’s way of dealing with the security hardships that have blighted her short life—the Kassam rockets on Sderot, the sound of Israel Defense Forces shells fired at the Gaza Strip, and the sonic booms from Israel Air Force planes.

Bush America Is Israel’s Shield

America must remain resolute in its battle against global Islamic terrorism or risk serious consequences––including the demise of the Jewish state––United States President George W. Bush said in a speech to American troops in late October. A perceived U.S. loss in the War on Terror would provide the terrorist the means of victory over Israel and eventually the entire Judeo-Christian West, Bush insisted.
