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
Reticence to condemn Hamas amounts to collusion against Israel. Hesitancy to express explicit support for Israel at this time, which also will mean unequivocally backing Israel in the many months ahead of tough fighting to crush Hamas, is tantamount to siding with the enemy.
In his policy address on Thursday pre-dawn (Israel time), President Biden sketched a new global map composed of a team of good guys – Israel, Ukraine, and the other democracies – on one side and a bad team – Russia, Iran, Hamas, and North Korea – on the other (surprisingly, China was left off the list).
It is probably safe to assume that the coordination between Qatar and Hamas, which led to the release of the two hostages, was intended to grant the terrorist organization several advantages: firstly, to delay and postpone as far as possible the IDF ground maneuver into the Gaza Strip.
“It is incredibly moving to welcome this week’s olim, who despite extremely tragic and unsecure circumstances, are continuing to fulfill their Zionist dreams of moving to Israel,” Chairman of Nefesh B’Nefesh Tony Gelbart says.
Israel should never have viewed Hamas as a partner in maintaining peace and stability along the border. As for the IDF, it is not omnipotent in terms of intelligence and military capabilities.
