Time passes, but October 7 will never fade from our memory.
After surviving 738 days in Hamas captivity, Evyatar David, abducted from the Nova Music Festival, is reclaiming the life Hamas tried to steal from him.
His message is one of extraordinary strength and resilience:
“I will continue to dance.”
Am Yisrael Chai. 🇮🇱❤️

Palestinians should be voting in Palestinian Authority elections. But yet again Mahmoud Abbas has postponed them.
No elections since 2006.
Elections were one of the reform promises made by Mahmoud Abbas and the PA to Western governments.
Mahmoud Abbas and the PA:
20 years without elections.
20 years without accountability.
20 years of broken promises.
Arab citizens of Israel voted 10 times in parliamentary elections since 2006.
Meanwhile, the Palestinian Authority has denied Palestinians the right to vote for 20 years.
Yet there’s no outrage. No headlines. Just silence.

On October 7, Hamas slaughtered, raped and kidnapped Israelis.
And yet @FranceskAlbs argues that Israel cannot invoke the right to defend itself and its people.
Even after October 7. Even after everything Hamas did.
Someone pushing this agenda has no business holding a @UN human rights mandate.
Albanese must go.
The Holocaust showed us exactly what happens when Jews are left defenseless.
@FranceskAlbs wants to deny Israel the right to defend itself and protect its people.
We know all too well where Jewish defenselessness leads. We will never let that happen again.
Someone pushing this agenda has no business holding a @UN human rights mandate.
Albanese must go.

The strength of Israeli democracy lies in its people.
Yesterday, Israel recorded its highest voter turnout since 1999, with 77.7% casting their ballots. 🇮🇱🗳️
Dear Czechia 🇨🇿
Happy Independent Czechoslovak State Day!

Israel’s election by numbers
🇮🇱🗳️ Israel’s 26th Knesset elections by numbers:
From hundreds of millions of ballot slips to free public transport on Election Day, preparations are underway for Israel’s biggest ever elections!
How does 🇮🇱 democracy work?
In Israel, every citizen aged 18 and over has the right to vote.
One vote determines which party they support. The results determine how the 120 seats in the Knesset are distributed, which parties enter parliament and who can form a government.
A 3.25% electoral threshold. A parliamentary majority of 61 seats.
