1. The Israeli Defense Force (IDF) has been engaged in a campaign against Palestinian militants in the West Bank. The latest major such operation took place in Nour Shams refugee camp in Tulkarem. A handful of Palestinian militants were killed on April 19, 2024 in the camp. Israel remains persistent in cracking down on militancy in the Palestinian territories and major trouble spots while they defend themselves in both in the South against Hamas and the North against Hezbollah. This is likely to remain the situation as Israel’s security concerns remain elevated after the October 7Th 2023 terror attacks.
Enough of the ‘social justice’ Passover Seders
Jews are allowed to center ourselves, love ourselves, celebrate ourselves, and remember who we are.

Two years ago, I had a life-changing Passover experience.
I was invited to attend my first modern-Orthodox Seder (Passover ceremony) with none other than Mayim Bialik in attendance — replete with Passover-themed Jewish “Jeopardy.” It was pretty iconic.
Why was this night different than all other nights? For many reasons, not the least of which being that I was raised Reform Jewish, and none of my Seders ever had this kind of spirituality, insight, contemplation, or grounded celebration of Jewish tradition. It was a turning point in my relationship with Judaism.
