Read About the Fires...That AFSI Helped Halt

On AFSI's April mission trip we visited the wheat fields of Yitzhar with Ayelet and Akiva HaCohen whose drive and determination have created a very successful flour mill. Neighboring Arabs are constantly planning to burn down the fields. AFSI agreed to help with building a fire wall. Helen Freedman recently corresponded with Ayelet and Akiva to see if they were safe from the fires.

"Today we had another fire that the Arabs torched, this time closer to our house, but we weren't worried because we knew the fire wall path that we paved with your contribution would stop it and that is exactly what happened!  

Below are a few pictures of the fire stopping as it approaches the path and the security car on the path making sure it doesn't pass it."

Don't Capitulate!

Israel's High Court of Justice will discuss the evacuation of the illegal Bedouin outpost of Khan el-Ahmar this coming Wednesday following an additional petition filed by the Palestinian Authority (PA).

Likud activists are calling on party members and MK's, to exert their influence to prevent Israel from capitulating on the evacuation of Khan el-Ahmar.

What We're Watching
Israeli officials and US dignitaries participated in an Arutz Sheva conference to address national and international issues, in an event organized by AFSI friend and colleague, Dr. Joseph Frager. Security tensions in north and south, the Nationality Law, and Jerusalem were discussed.

Full report HERE.
Recognize Golan Heights Sovereignty

EMET has launched a petition today calling on the US Administration to recognize Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights.

Because of the seven-year brutal Syrian civil war, the Islamic Republic of Iran has taken advantage of the situation, and Iranian-backed Hezbollah forces have penetrated as far south as the Syrian town of Quneitra. Iran is determined to build a land bridge stretching from Tehran to Beirut to Damascus and to the Mediterranean Sea.

A United States recognition of Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights is critical at this time, to ensure the safety and national security interests of the U.S. and Israel, and it would send a strong message to Tehran that their hegemonic aspirations must not go on, unchallenged.

Members of Congress have called for U.S. recognition of Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights, but it is important that the American people send a message to the Administration as well.

We encourage everyone to sign and share the petition with your friends, colleagues, and contact lists.

Annual Memorial and Tribute to the
Great Zionist Leader
Ze'ev Jabotinsky

Ze'ev (Vladimir) Jabotinsky (October 1880 - August 1940) was a giant of a Jewish history.

A prophet, a fighter, an ideologue, a journalist; his vision remains an integral part of the State of Israel today. 

Jabotinsky remains an inspiration for the Jewish people. His philosophy remains alive amongst so many worldwide today including AFSI, because as he said,
"Silence is Despicable".
