The eldest son of one of my oldest friends, who played with my daughter when they were toddlers, lost his life on Shabbat defending the Jewish homeland against Hamas terrorists. His funeral will be tomorrow. May Aryeh Ziering’s zechut bring security to Israel soon. HYD.

Yesterday, I commended
@POTUS
for his speech; he stressed that “it was Hamas that unleashed this terror” & started the war. But today’s threat to withhold arms from Israel betrays this truth. It undermines Israel’s ability to defeat Hamas & gives Hamas leverage & hope to survive.
