Across the Middle East, the Western enemies are finding out the consequences of terrorism.

War has returned to the Middle East. In Gaza, Yemen, and Syria, we are seeing conflicts simmer and boil over. Let’s get into it.

In this week’s edition of the Action Update, we discuss the muddled message of U.S. hostage negotiator Adam Boehler, the consequences of Columbia University’s tolerance of bigotry, and an emerging insurgency in Syria. Let’s dive in.

Last night, President Trump delivered the first address of his second term in office to a joint session of Congress. This is akin to the State of the Union, but as the President’s term has only just begun, it’s simply billed a little differently. The President’s comments touched on a very wide range of topics, and as a single-issue organization, we were only focused on one: Standing with the Children of Israel.

Last week was among the most gut-wrenching for all Israel, her supporters, and anyone of conscience. No doubt our readers are aware of the horrific and brutal murder of baby Kfir, Ariel and Shiri Bibas. There is no depth to Hamas’s depravity.

After seeing the horrific images of Israeli hostages released from captivity malnourished, injured and brutalized, tomorrow we will be forced to contend with gut-wrenching scene of Hamas returning the remains of Kfir (nine months — at time of abduction ), Ariel (four years — at time of abduction) and Shiri (32 years – at time of abduction) to their loved ones.
