Straight Facts
As I write this, it has been almost five months since that Black Sabbath that saw over 1200 brutally murdered and over 240 kidnapped. To date, there are still 134 hostages held in Gaza – BRING THEM HOME NOW! We also bow our head in memoriam for our fallen IDF warriors – may their memories be eternally blessed.
