Israel Hayom is a media organization founded on the belief that the Israeli public deserves better journalism—more balanced, more accurate, and more reliable. Journalism that speaks rather than shouts. Journalism that is trustworthy, objective, and matter-of-fact. A different kind of journalism, offered free of charge. The first print edition was published on July 30, 2007, and in 2010 Israel Hayom became the Israeli newspaper with the highest weekday readership. The newspaper’s publisher is Dr. Miriam Adelson. Its Editor-in-Chief is Omar Lachmanovitch, and its founding editor is Amos Regev. Israel Hayom’s Hebrew and English websites, as well as its Android and iOS applications, provide around-the-clock news coverage, exclusive content, breaking news and updates, analysis and commentary, video, podcasts, and live broadcasts. The digital platforms of Israel Hayom include news and opinion channels covering culture and entertainment, lifestyle, technology, sports, business and consumer affairs, health, military affairs, food, Judaism, tourism, and automobiles. In 2021, a new Hebrew-language website and mobile application were launched to provide users with a fast, up-to-date, secure, and convenient experience. The content of the newspaper’s print edition is also available online through a daily digital edition and can be received via newsletter. “The Israel Hayom Clique,” the publication’s exclusive benefits club, offers website users discounts and special promotions on products and services. Israel Hayom welcomes feedback, criticism, and suggestions for improvement from its readers. You can contact the organization by email at hayom@israelhayom.co.il

Defensible borders and American guarantees

By rejecting the roadmap for Gaza, Netanyahu abruptly changes his tune but in reality continues his zigzagging and double-speak. Worse still, on the ground, the IDF's hands are tied and soldiers can no longer adequately defend themselves in the event of an attack.

Riyadh bought allies who need its enemy more than its victory

Riyadh is paying in sovereignty for subcontracted security. It buys capability; Ankara and Islamabad gain permanence and veto. Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030, Mohammed bin Salman's programme to build a post-oil investment and logistics power, is a sovereignty project. The pact outsources strategic discretion. Saudi Arabia did not diversify its security. It diversified the states entitled to constrain it.

Is Europe losing control of its borders?

Today, a sense of powerlessness hangs over Europe regarding the inability to exert firm authority to effectively protect and control its borders. To avoid unnecessary diplomatic tensions, most European states recognize the urgent need to strengthen controls at border crossings and adopt appropriate measures to combat this scourge.

Use it or lose it: Stop the summer slide

The solution is not to eliminate summer break. Children need time to rest, play, travel, get bored, and spend time with family so they can return to school recharged in September. The mistake lies in assuming that rest requires shutting down brain activity entirely. Nor do we need to turn August into summer school.
