SpaceIL and Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) released on Sunday a number of stunning images and short videos taken by Israel’s lunar lander Beresheet at various stages during its journey to the moon. One photo showed Earth at a distance of 131,000 km. The furthest was taken at 265,000km from the planet. The spacecraft’s first “selfie” image showed Earth at a distance of 37,600 km and was released on March 5. Read more...

Ireland, as a European Union member state, is subject to the EU's commercial rules. EU trade rules may prohibit Ireland's unilateral action as an EU treaty requires common commercial policy for all EU member states. The proposed law "could force US companies with Irish subsidiaries to choose between violating the Irish law or violating US Export Administration Regulations." — Orde Kittrie, Professor of Law, Arizona State University. Worst, there is no evidence that Ireland's

On Monday the UN Human Rights Council (UNHRC) will meet in order to go through its regular routine of criticizing Israel. For 25 years the PA has been teaching Palestinian children and youth that terrorist murderers are heroes; that Jews are "the most evil among creations," and Israel is "the enemy"; and that Israel has no right to exist. These intertwined messages have been used by the PA as a means to mobilize and recruit Palestinian children and youth to take an active par

This Monday, March 18th, the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva will launch an unprecedented assault on the human rights of Israelis: • The UNHRC will devote the entire day to condemning Israel, under its biased Agenda Item 7. No other country in the world is singled out this way. • Israel will be vilified in 7 biased reports. There will be 0 reports on abuses by China, Turkey, Cuba, and most other of the world’s worst regimes. • The new UN Commission of Inquiry will present i

To some, the mock trial in the Gaza Strip of Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas may seem trivial or like some sort of bizarre comedy act. The "trial," however, is something else entirely: it is designed to send a signal not only to Abbas, but to any Palestinian who even thinks of making peace with Israel or recognizing its right to exist. The "trial" is aimed at showing what awaits any Palestinian who dares to work with Israel by conducting security coordination or

GENEVA, March 5 – The UN's 47-nation Human Rights Council is planning to launch an unprecedented assault against Israel on March 18th, when the Jewish state will be singled out for an entire day—a pariah treatment meted out to no other nation—as the council presents seven separate reports alleging Israeli war crimes. (See below on UN Watch's response and protest rally.) The March 18th assault will culiminate in five biased resolutions condemning Israel, the drafts of which ha

I just read the obituary of a man who made an important contribution to Jewish-Christian relations and the field of Holocaust studies. His writings made a powerful impact on my thinking and I bowed my head and breathed a prayer of thanks for his life and work. Then a thought occurred to me and I wondered how many evangelical Christian pro-Israel activists today have even heard of Rev. Franklin Littell? Too few, I suspect. So I’d like to introduce him.

The ruling by the Palestinian Scholars' Association is also aimed at sending a message to the US administration that the Palestinians and the Muslims will have nothing to do with the "Deal of the Century." Moreover, it serves as a reminder that even if some Arabs do sign peace treaties with Israel, there will always be those Muslims who will denounce them as "traitors" and accuse them of acting against the Koran and the rulings of Islam. Mahmoud Abbas, meanwhile, is acutely a
