US Embassy will boycott the Tel Aviv Gay Pride Parade this year:
Much to their dismay, Trump survived both assassination attempts to become the elected President, and now he directed the US Embassy in Israel to officially boycott the Tel Aviv LGBTQ Parade.

IDF publishes documents it says proves that Hamas has had a policy of confiscating all the incoming aid:

Israel noticed that some brave Gazans were looting the aid trucks – thus preventing Hamas from hoarding all the aid for themselves. Nobody expected Israel to support the looters – but that’s exactly what they’re doing!
So now, the IDF is able to deliver aid directly to the people of Gaza, totally bypassing the Hamas thieves.

A longer 37 min vid below goes into more detail on changes of conservatism in Israel:
South Yemen was liberated from the Houthis in 2015 with the help of the Saudis and the United Arab Emirates. North Yemen, still controlled by the Houthi tribe which is supported by the Iranians, launched another attack on Israeli civilians yesterday with a missile that bypassed US and Israeli defense systems, landing in grassy areas near roads associated with Ben Gurion Airport. Two civilians were lightly injured by the blast, another was injured by falling while running to shelter.
Currently, South Yemen continues to strengthen ties with the USA, thanks to the Aden Declaration on 4 May 2017 under the first Trump Administration. Meanwhile, South Yemen continues its resistance against the Iran-backed Houthis in North Yemen.
My best guess: Iran conducted a nuclear test which triggered a 4.0 earthquake, which in turn triggered a fire in Qoms and a factory explosion.
Why? Well, I would say without very much guesswork that an explosion in a motorcycle factory is not going to cause a 4.0 earthquake. However, the reverse could be true: Such an earthquake could certainly trigger a factory accident as well as a fire in Qoms.
We see that Iran continues to make improvements on its intercontinental “Qassem Basiar” missile, which has a range of 1,200 km (745 miles).
We also know that Iran continues to enrich uranium to 60% when the maximum needed for civilian power usage is 4%. Historically, Pakistan and North Korea also lied about their civilian nuclear programs to cover up their military nuclear facilities, which eventually successfully created nuclear weapons for them.
Decades ago, Ron Wyatt conducted an amateur investigation of this boat-shaped structure in the Mountains of Ararat, using what he said was the best underground X-ray technology available at the time. His team showed videos of large iron rivets which could have been used to fasten beams of wood together. They claimed that these thousands of iron artifacts mapped out a 3D framework of the skeleton of a boat with ribs which matched the Biblical dimensions described in the book of Genesis.
Ron Wyatt’s work has its fair share of supporters and critics. Coming up will be the first professional investigation conducted by the archeological community:
Captured from Jerusalem Post on 5 May, 2025.
Reading the article, it occurs to me that the earthquake that uncovered this strange shape on the hills occurred in May of 1948–the same month* and year of Israel’s Declaration of Independence and the start of the war:
“The Durupınar hill first drew attention in May 1948, after earthquakes and torrential rains stripped away overburden. Turkish Army Captain İlhan Durupınar re-examined the site in 1959 while mapping the region for NATO and forwarded his photographs to Ankara, giving the outcrop its current name.”
When Ron Wyatt noticed the arial photos in a publication, he thought that it looked boat-shaped and started to think about making a trip, which he did in the 1980’s.
Now in 2025 it appears that the professional archeologists have made headway in agreements with the Turkish government to finally get started.
*In 1948 on the Gregorian Calendar, Israel’s Independence was declared on May 14, which was the 5th of Iyar, the second month of the year which begins at Aviv, in the springtime, the month of Passover. Year to year, the 5th of Iyar* will appear on various days from April to May on the Gregorian Calendar. In the event that the 5th lands on a weekly Shabbat, the celebration day would be moved a couple days to honor the Shabbat which holds the higher position in honor.
Now, since the nations and political entities do not care one iota about theology, let’s turn to the legalities which is according to the laws of men. UN Resolution 181 (II) officially passed with 33 nations in favor, taking the majority vote.
Meanwhile, keep in mind that Bible Believers also give due respect to laws of men as well as to the political systems of men. But first, the discussion as to the legal basis according to the political and military superpowers of the contemporary age – mainly Great Britain, Europe, the USA – however, many other powers are also signatories to the legal agreements.
UN Resolution 181 (II) did in fact grant Judea and Samaria and the rest of Mandatory Palestine to the new state of Israel as well as to a new Arab state. However, by refusing this offer, the Arab nations legally forfeited their portion of what had previously been under British control:

Soon after legally forfeiting their land, Jordan and Egypt illegally occupied parts of the land, namely parts of Judea, Samaria, and Gaza. That illegal occupation ended twenty years later with the Six Days’ War of 1967. At that point, possession of the lands reverted back to the legal owner, Israel. Legal in the sense of world politics; again, here we are not talking about theological law, but international secular law.
As believers, we are also subject to kings and political systems to the extent that our personal Biblical beliefs are not violated:
I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;
For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. 1 Timothy 2:1-2, AV
And yet, those earthly political systems are themselves subject to Y’shua:
Who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God; angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto Him. 1 Peter 3:22, AV
This means, among other things, that earthly political systems are subject to Messiah Y’shua – and answerable to Him in the final Judgment.
In conclusion, no matter what the theology, the modern state of Israel, as well as the regions including Judea and Samaria, is established on firm legal basis according to the laws of the world.
Now, even if theology matters not one whit to the nations, it does matter to Bible Believers. So for that, we’ll take a look at Judea and Samaria from a Biblical angle.
Here’s the full 1 hour interview:

“Does anyone suppose that Our Lord’s hearers understood Him to mean that if a homicidal maniac, attempting to murder a third party, tried to knock me out of the way, I must stand aside and let him get his victim? I at any rate think it impossible they could have so understood Him. I think it equally impossible that they supposed Him to mean that the best way of bringing up a child was to let it hit its parents whenever it was in a temper, or, when it had grabbed at the jam, to give it the honey also. I think the meaning of the words was perfectly clear—’Insofar as you are simply an angry man who has been hurt, mortify your anger and do not hit back…’” From “Why I Am Not a Pacifist,” by C.S. Lewis, in “The Weight of Glory.”

On the Muslim calendar, Ramadan month of daytime fasting and nighttime feasting and festivals began Feb 28, 2025. It it anticipated to end March 29, 2025, but this varies as it depends upon the sighting of the moon.
Excavation near Jerusalem found the tomb of a 9,000-year-old six-fingered Neolithic shaman woman, in the Motza archaeological site in the hills of Jerusalem, with six fingers on her left hand.
Biblically, this is a trait associated with the Nephilim (fallen ones) giants, also Rephaim, and their descendants:
‘And there was yet a battle in Gath, where was a man of great stature, that had on every hand six fingers, and on every foot six toes, four and twenty in number; and he also was born to the giant.’ 2Sa 21:20
Jerusalem Post, captured 5 March 2025.
If the date is correct, 9,000 years would place this site pre-Flood, as well as pre-pottery.
I have not found specifics, however if notable, then I would think that this uncovered skeleton has the rare Type III Central Polydactyly, rather than the more common variants Hexadactyly, a well recognized genetic trait, or Ulnar polydactyly which today is thought to be 1 in 143 among certain African populations.
