Yishai Fleisher is the International Spokesman for Hebron, one of Israel’s leading critical thinkers, and ...

He's become a strong voice among American Jews, widely published, followed and referenced on social media, and a respected speaker su...

And for the full experience, please see the video at the Genesis 123 Foun...

Tucker Carlson’s recent episode of his “Uncensored” program with notoriously anti-Israel Palestinian Arab Christian, Rev. Munther Isaac has been described as a modern antisemitic blood libel. His 43-minute diatribe with Rev. Isaac was the definition of antisemitism by delegitimizing Israel, demonization of Israel, and applying double standards to Israel that nobody does or would apply to anyone else. With so many outright lies, half-truths, sweeping generalizations and more, it’s necessary to se...

This is just a sample of some of the important teachings, personal testimonies, and inspiring prayers. Please pray along with us and share...

Nothing could have prepared us for the nightmarish horrors of Oct 7th. The Jewish people and State of Israel were brutally attacked by barbarians bent on murder, rape, and destruction. We witnessed unspeakable horrors we thought were relics of our tortured past in exile. Nothing will ever be the same. Dark clouds have descended upon us, and our faith is being severely tested. We are battling homicidal Islamic maniacs, while facing seething antisemitism on American campuses and throughout western...

Like the five stones that King David took to fight Goliath, tar...

Israel is the historic and eternal homeland of the Jewish people, yet 75 years after becoming a state, still millions of Jews live overseas, in the diaspora. Why is it imperative that Jews come home now, especially now, in the wake of the war? Is it game over for Jews in the diaspora? What’s holding Jews back from coming home, and what can be done to expedite this? Is it even realistic that most, much less all Jews will come home? Hillel Fuld and Rabbi Hayim Leiter are two critical thinkers with...
