Israeli Bombs Rain Down On Houthis; Hamas Heads Survive Strike, Per Reports | Boots on the Ground

September 11, 2025 | 30:40

TBN Israel's Yair Pinto reports on the Israel-Hamas War. The war expands across borders: Israeli fighter jets strike deep inside Yemen - 2,350 km from home, in the IDF’s longest combat mission yet. Meanwhile, Hamas leaders narrowly escape a targeted strike in Doha, Qatar, as Israel sends a clear message: no sanctuary for terror. In Gaza City, the IDF intensifies airstrikes ahead of a major ground push, while Hamas forcibly blocks evacuations. And as Qatar suspends its role in hostage talks, Egypt rises as a new mediator. From Yemen to Gaza to the halls of Western academia, this is Day 706 of the war.

  • >> and yet, somehow the world calls us the aggressor.
  • 00:04:41.555 --> 00:04:45.559
  • >> because evil has the narrative and twisted the truth.
  • 00:04:45.559 --> 00:04:49.797
  • >> and the west will. too often it believes the lies, because
  • 00:04:49.797 --> 00:04:53.367
  • Comprehending such evil is hard. and when people can't
  • 00:04:53.367 --> 00:04:56.304

  • Analyst, matti shoshani, who will bring us some thoughts on
  • 00:06:33.167 --> 00:06:36.270
  • How the move to eliminate the hamas top echelon in doha,
  • 00:06:36.270 --> 00:06:40.174
  • Qatar, is going to change the face of this war and what the
  • 00:06:40.174 --> 00:06:44.745
  • Next steps are and where the wind is blowing in the middle
  • 00:06:44.745 --> 00:06:48.416
  • East. over to you, marty.
  • 00:06:48.416 --> 00:06:50.484
  • >> thank you. yael. yes. last night, a unique landmark attack
  • 00:06:50.484 --> 00:06:54.321
  • Takes place in doha, qatar, where about ten israeli air
  • 00:06:54.321 --> 00:06:58.259
  • Force jets drop a pile of munitions on top of a hamas
  • 00:06:58.259 --> 00:07:04.165
  • Meeting taking place in doha, qatar, the capital of the
  • 00:07:04.165 --> 00:07:08.536
  • Country of qatar. this attack is a landmark history making
  • 00:07:08.536 --> 00:07:11.639
  • Attack on multiple different aspects. so we're going to
  • 00:07:11.639 --> 00:07:15.342
  • Break down in the next couple of minutes. but first, if
  • 00:07:15.342 --> 00:07:18.279
  • You're here with us and haven't done so yet, make sure you like
  • 00:07:18.279 --> 00:07:21.282
  • You share and subscribe. and if you're watching this on

  • Broadcast, make sure you do this on our youtube channel.
  • 00:07:24.418 --> 00:07:27.188
  • Now back to the headlines. this is a very unique attack. the
  • 00:07:27.188 --> 00:07:31.292
  • Israeli force carries out a technical, a diplomatic and a
  • 00:07:31.292 --> 00:07:36.430
  • Logistically complicated attack against hamas targets within
  • 00:07:36.430 --> 00:07:40.301
  • Doha, qatar, the capital of qatar, which is a frenemy, both
  • 00:07:40.301 --> 00:07:44.538
  • An enemy and a friend country, both to israel and the us. and
  • 00:07:44.538 --> 00:07:48.175
  • We'll break this down in a couple of minutes. in this
  • 00:07:48.175 --> 00:07:51.278
  • Attack that's over 1800km away, or about 1100 or 1200 miles
  • 00:07:51.278 --> 00:07:55.182
  • Away from the coast of israel. the israeli air force just
  • 00:07:55.182 --> 00:07:58.252
  • Precisely attack a meeting taking place in doha, qatar, at
  • 00:07:58.252 --> 00:08:02.089
  • Which our present multiple hamas leaders. let's talk about
  • 00:08:02.089 --> 00:08:06.193
  • The international significance of this attack, because this
  • 00:08:06.193 --> 00:08:09.296
  • Really is the story in this entire attack. i mean, the
  • 00:08:09.296 --> 00:08:13.667
  • Logistical side of it, the military side of it, very
  • 00:08:13.667 --> 00:08:16.203
  • Impressive. but this is something that is changing the
  • 00:08:16.203 --> 00:08:19.340
  • Face of the middle east as we know it up until now. and let
  • 00:08:19.340 --> 00:08:22.343
  • Me explain that first and foremost. this is an attack
  • 00:08:22.343 --> 00:08:25.246
  • That reshapes the power balance between israel, the us and
  • 00:08:25.246 --> 00:08:29.383
  • Other countries in this region. here are the names of the hamas
  • 00:08:29.383 --> 00:08:32.887
  • Leaders that we believe. and this is according to multiple
  • 00:08:32.887 --> 00:08:35.689
  • Reports, were the ones eliminated last night. so here
  • 00:08:35.689 --> 00:08:37.825
  • Are these names khalil al-hayya, khalid, mashaal, a legendary
  • 00:08:37.825 --> 00:08:41.028
  • Name amongst hamas leaders zaher jabarin, husam badran and
  • 00:08:41.028 --> 00:08:46.767
  • Others, and possibly several other leaders in the hamas
  • 00:08:46.767 --> 00:08:49.970
  • Organization. all of these people were masterminds of
  • 00:08:49.970 --> 00:08:52.506
  • Hamas operations, hamas attacks on israel on october 7th and
  • 00:08:52.506 --> 00:08:56.043
  • The ongoing war and their refusal to end it in recent
  • 00:08:56.043 --> 00:08:59.446
  • Months. these are the people that meet together, and every
  • 00:08:59.446 --> 00:09:02.349
  • Time they meet, we end at the same place. hamas is
  • 00:09:02.349 --> 00:09:05.586
  • Yesterday's agreement, but in reality, they refuse any kind
  • 00:09:05.586 --> 00:09:09.089
  • Of negotiation with israel. one of the big unknowns that's
  • 00:09:09.089 --> 00:09:12.359
  • Going to remain in the air for the weeks coming is the
  • 00:09:12.359 --> 00:09:15.229
  • Question of whether or not the us knew exactly what was going
  • 00:09:15.229 --> 00:09:18.165
  • To happen. and i want to make a point of this because the us
  • 00:09:18.165 --> 00:09:21.869
  • Knew this was coming. it's just probably politically
  • 00:09:21.869 --> 00:09:24.672
  • Inconvenient for them to say out loud that they were
  • 00:09:24.672 --> 00:09:27.007
  • Involved or engaged in this attack. it's also possible, by
  • 00:09:27.007 --> 00:09:30.411
  • The way, that israel gave the us only part of the information.
  • 00:09:30.411 --> 00:09:33.347
  • They possibly only told them that it was an attack on hamas.
  • 00:09:33.347 --> 00:09:36.250
  • Target was coming without specifying where it was, or
  • 00:09:36.250 --> 00:09:39.620
  • That they were passing through the airspace without specifying
  • 00:09:39.620 --> 00:09:41.355
  • What the final target was. ultimately, it doesn't really
  • 00:09:41.355 --> 00:09:45.192
  • Matter. israel and the us are close allies and have worked
  • 00:09:45.192 --> 00:09:48.963
  • Together on many such attacks and military operations over
  • 00:09:48.963 --> 00:09:52.333
  • Many years and many months recently in this entire region.
  • 00:09:52.333 --> 00:09:56.236
  • And this isn't going to change that relationship, but the
  • 00:09:56.236 --> 00:09:59.106
  • Relationship between the us and qatar is a very, very, very
  • 00:09:59.106 --> 00:10:02.776
  • Gentle one. qatar meddles in a lot of issues within the us, in
  • 00:10:02.776 --> 00:10:06.313
  • The academy, in politics. they're deeply involved also in
  • 00:10:06.313 --> 00:10:10.384
  • Shaping media and funding different media outlets such as
  • 00:10:10.384 --> 00:10:13.020
  • Al-jazeera. but another point here is, is that qatar is both
  • 00:10:13.020 --> 00:10:16.056
  • A good guy and the bad guy in this relationship. the qataris
  • 00:10:16.056 --> 00:10:19.660
  • Are part of the mediation process with hamas, but they've
  • 00:10:19.660 --> 00:10:22.262
  • Also been the people in the past to support hamas. so they
  • 00:10:22.262 --> 00:10:25.132
  • Play both sides of this equation. and you really need
  • 00:10:25.132 --> 00:10:28.202
  • To understand that there is no black and white situation as it
  • 00:10:28.202 --> 00:10:31.338
  • Relates to qatar. they're complicated player in a
  • 00:10:31.338 --> 00:10:33.207
  • Complicated region and we need to treat them as such. now back
  • 00:10:33.207 --> 00:10:37.645
  • To pinto.

  • Report and bring you all the truth about what's happening in
  • 00:10:45.085 --> 00:10:47.988
  • Israel. and we ask you to continue and help us spread the
  • 00:10:47.988 --> 00:10:51.125
  • Truth. visit our youtube channel, tbn israel. hit that

  • Updates and lives from israel. now we will move on to the
  • 00:10:58.499 --> 00:11:02.970
  • Report that i prepared for you in advance.
  • 00:11:02.970 --> 00:11:05.139
  • >> we're here today, embedded with the idf in the scene of
  • 00:11:05.139 --> 00:11:08.242
  • One of the biggest counterterrorism operations
  • 00:11:08.242 --> 00:11:11.078
  • That has taken place in a very long time by the idf.
  • 00:11:11.078 --> 00:11:15.983
  • >> and the floor underneath the mosque is the regional firing
  • 00:11:15.983 --> 00:11:20.954
  • Range. this is where the local young terrorists were training.
  • 00:11:20.954 --> 00:11:26.060
  • >> the idf has.
  • 00:11:26.060 --> 00:11:27.261
  • >> been operating here since early in the year. it's about
  • 00:11:27.261 --> 00:11:30.097
  • Seven months now of an ongoing operation in which over a
  • 00:11:30.097 --> 00:11:33.534
  • Thousand ieds have been removed.
  • 00:11:33.534 --> 00:11:37.838
  • >> gaza taught.
  • 00:11:37.838 --> 00:11:39.106
  • >> us a terrible lesson. when.
  • 00:11:39.106 --> 00:11:41.208
  • >> terror embeds inside a civilian population in the
  • 00:11:41.208 --> 00:11:45.045
  • Schools above, in the tunnels below, an entire region is
  • 00:11:45.045 --> 00:11:49.083
  • Taken hostage. whole neighborhoods become launchpads
  • 00:11:49.083 --> 00:11:52.686
  • Propaganda replaces truth. children grow up in the shadow
  • 00:11:52.686 --> 00:11:56.190
  • Of a rifle. that is a nightmare. we refuse to let it take root
  • 00:11:56.190 --> 00:12:01.328
  • Right here in judea and samaria, as we call it in hebrew. and
  • 00:12:01.328 --> 00:12:06.400
  • This week, israeli forces moved first. 90 wanted suspects were
  • 00:12:06.400 --> 00:12:11.038
  • Detained across the sector. a deep arrest inside jenin, a key
  • 00:12:11.038 --> 00:12:15.409
  • Operative and an accomplice taken alive. tables piled with
  • 00:12:15.409 --> 00:12:20.013
  • Seized hardware, a negev light machine gun, m-16s, m-4s
  • 00:12:20.013 --> 00:12:24.017
  • Pistols, improvised explosives and the cash trails that feed
  • 00:12:24.017 --> 00:12:28.055
  • All of that terrorism mechanism. in other raids, forces flipped
  • 00:12:28.055 --> 00:12:31.759
  • The script, helicopters dropping reserve infantry into
  • 00:12:31.759 --> 00:12:35.095
  • The heart of hostile terrain, armored teams sealing the roads,
  • 00:12:35.095 --> 00:12:39.032
  • Weapons and terror funds pulled before they could be turned
  • 00:12:39.032 --> 00:12:42.369
  • Into funerals of the innocent. terrorism and terror has a
  • 00:12:42.369 --> 00:12:47.007
  • Playbook burrow into crowded cities, intimidate the locals,
  • 00:12:47.007 --> 00:12:51.044
  • Flood the streets with guns and money, and then when the
  • 00:12:51.044 --> 00:12:55.949
  • Cameras are ready, strike at israel's roads, busses and
  • 00:12:55.949 --> 00:12:59.887
  • Towns. if we look away, asac judea and samaria becomes gaza
  • 00:12:59.887 --> 00:13:04.324
  • 2.0. but if we move first, we cut the fuze before it reaches
  • 00:13:04.324 --> 00:13:09.429
  • Our families. today, i'm embedded with idf deep inside
  • 00:13:09.429 --> 00:13:13.333
  • Of jenin, heading into the heart of the city to see this
  • 00:13:13.333 --> 00:13:16.937
  • Week's seizures up close and to understand what these cells
  • 00:13:16.937 --> 00:13:20.240
  • Were building weapons, which routes were
  • 00:13:20.240 --> 00:13:23.877
  • Mapped, which communities they targeted. this isn't about
  • 00:13:23.877 --> 00:13:27.247
  • Politics. it's about prevention of terrorism. it's the
  • 00:13:27.247 --> 00:13:30.050
  • Difference between an ambush that happens and one that
  • 00:13:30.050 --> 00:13:33.821
  • Simply doesn't. stay with me for the truth. from inside
  • 00:13:33.821 --> 00:13:38.125
  • Judea and samaria. and before we begin, like, subscribe and
  • 00:13:38.125 --> 00:13:41.762
  • Share. help us get this reality past the slogans and into the
  • 00:13:41.762 --> 00:13:46.900
  • Light.
  • 00:13:46.900 --> 00:13:53.974
  • >> okay, it is early morning. we're here in the battalion
  • 00:13:53.974 --> 00:13:57.945
  • Command, about to enter into jenin. here are the military
  • 00:13:57.945 --> 00:14:03.116
  • Vehicles that are taking us. some heavy.
  • 00:14:03.116 --> 00:14:04.952
  • >> machinery right over here, to really get a look at what
  • 00:14:04.952 --> 00:14:07.955
  • The idf has been doing in there for the last couple of days,
  • 00:14:07.955 --> 00:14:11.725
  • Specifically the amount of weaponry caught. and we're
  • 00:14:11.725 --> 00:14:13.861
  • Traveling heavy with quite a substantial amount of soldiers
  • 00:14:13.861 --> 00:14:17.264
  • And equipment.
  • 00:14:17.264 --> 00:14:28.041
  • >> okay. we are getting out of a very, very long and bumpy
  • 00:14:28.141 --> 00:14:31.778
  • Ride. this is the jenin refugee camp. there's a city proper
  • 00:14:31.778 --> 00:14:35.782
  • Underneath over there. you're the lovely soldiers that are
  • 00:14:35.782 --> 00:14:39.887
  • Protecting us. and then the house is around us. this is the.
  • 00:14:39.887 --> 00:14:44.625
  • >> jenin. refugee camp. we're here today, embedded with the
  • 00:14:44.625 --> 00:14:48.629
  • Idf in the scene of one of the biggest counterterrorism
  • 00:14:48.629 --> 00:14:52.599
  • Operations that has taken place in a very long time by the idf.
  • 00:14:52.599 --> 00:14:56.069
  • What you can see around me, and you'll see throughout these
  • 00:14:56.069 --> 00:14:59.740
  • Clips, is an incredible amount of engineering work that was
  • 00:14:59.740 --> 00:15:01.808
  • Done in the jenin refugee camp. we just heard from a source
  • 00:15:01.808 --> 00:15:05.012
  • Within the idf about the extent of the terrorism infrastructure
  • 00:15:05.012 --> 00:15:07.981
  • In this region. the majority of the population of this refugee
  • 00:15:07.981 --> 00:15:11.652
  • Camp was involved in manufacturing, terrorism,
  • 00:15:11.652 --> 00:15:14.922
  • Infrastructure, creating weaponry, or being at least
  • 00:15:14.922 --> 00:15:18.859
  • Sympathetic and active in their support of hamas and its
  • 00:15:18.859 --> 00:15:21.862
  • Affiliates. every road had ieds in it. in fact, idf is
  • 00:15:21.862 --> 00:15:25.766
  • Reporting that about a thousand ieds were pulled out of the
  • 00:15:25.766 --> 00:15:28.702
  • Jenin refugee camp and the jenin city area by engineering
  • 00:15:28.702 --> 00:15:33.040
  • Corps idf forces. on top of that, an incredible number of
  • 00:15:33.040 --> 00:15:37.811
  • Weapon manufacturing, weapon infrastructure, facilities and
  • 00:15:37.811 --> 00:15:41.915
  • Personnel was involved in this place. it's just testament to
  • 00:15:41.915 --> 00:15:44.985
  • How deep the terrorism infrastructure runs. another
  • 00:15:44.985 --> 00:15:48.655
  • Important thing i asked the idf representative who was with us
  • 00:15:48.655 --> 00:15:51.658
  • What would happen if idf wasn't here? and he said very clearly,
  • 00:15:51.658 --> 00:15:56.563
  • Without batting an eye. he said the terrorism infrastructure in
  • 00:15:56.563 --> 00:15:59.533
  • This part of judea and samaria was planning to carry out an
  • 00:15:59.533 --> 00:16:02.903
  • Attack similar to the attacks of october 7th in the gaza
  • 00:16:02.903 --> 00:16:05.772
  • Strip. and because of our presence here, they were unable
  • 00:16:05.772 --> 00:16:08.775
  • To carry it out. this is the big mosque of jenin. there's a
  • 00:16:08.775 --> 00:16:12.946
  • Substantial amount of terrorism, infrastructure and training for
  • 00:16:12.946 --> 00:16:16.717
  • Terrorists all taking place within this top floor of the
  • 00:16:16.717 --> 00:16:21.355
  • Building and the second floor of the building.
  • 00:16:21.355 --> 00:16:26.493
  • >> i'm right underneath the floor of the mosque, which is
  • 00:16:26.493 --> 00:16:30.764
  • Right above me. and the floor undeth the mosque is the
  • 00:16:30.764 --> 00:16:34.668
  • Regional firing range. this is where the local terrorists were
  • 00:16:34.668 --> 00:16:40.140
  • Training,
  • 00:16:40.140 --> 00:16:41.241
  • >> prepping to fire on idf soldiers. and the idf came in
  • 00:16:41.341 --> 00:16:43.810
  • Here. they found on the walls behind me targets of target
  • 00:16:43.810 --> 00:16:47.814
  • Practice. and this whole floor is filled with cartridges on
  • 00:16:47.814 --> 00:16:51.885
  • The floor from ak 47. we know how to identify them. the walls
  • 00:16:51.885 --> 00:16:55.689
  • Are shot up. the people that were shooting out of the
  • 00:16:55.689 --> 00:16:59.726
  • Windows, the entire building was used as a headquarters for
  • 00:16:59.726 --> 00:17:03.497
  • Local terrorism. there's very little in the refugee camp
  • 00:17:03.497 --> 00:17:05.732
  • Inside jenin that is not terrorism related. the majority
  • 00:17:05.732 --> 00:17:08.735
  • Of the population that was in this camp of about 10 to 12,000
  • 00:17:08.735 --> 00:17:13.006
  • People were involved in terrorism, both in
  • 00:17:13.006 --> 00:17:14.775
  • Infrastructure, in training or in creating tools of terrorism
  • 00:17:14.775 --> 00:17:18.745
  • That according to idf intelligence, things are
  • 00:17:18.745 --> 00:17:20.947
  • Changing. the fact that the idf has been operating here in an
  • 00:17:20.947 --> 00:17:24.751
  • Intensive way, and removing much of the terrorism
  • 00:17:24.751 --> 00:17:27.587
  • Infrastructure, of the terrorism infrastructure being
  • 00:17:27.587 --> 00:17:29.656
  • Weakened and a different type of leadership and a different
  • 00:17:29.656 --> 00:17:32.559
  • Trend trend in social media and discourse will come up in the
  • 00:17:32.559 --> 00:17:35.962
  • Young population. the idf is operating intensively here,
  • 00:17:35.962 --> 00:17:38.398
  • Helps remove that terrorism infrastructure, change the
  • 00:17:38.398 --> 00:17:41.568
  • Discourse and create a future that might not be led by
  • 00:17:41.568 --> 00:17:44.504
  • Terrorists, and especially terrorists, that are funded by
  • 00:17:44.504 --> 00:17:47.874
  • Iran and outside of the boundaries of this country. and
  • 00:17:47.874 --> 00:17:50.677
  • This mosque has evidence of terrorism, infrastructure,
  • 00:17:50.677 --> 00:17:53.613
  • Terrorism activities happening throughout this refugee camp,
  • 00:17:53.613 --> 00:17:56.383
  • But specifically both in the mosques, in the schools and the
  • 00:17:56.383 --> 00:17:59.986
  • Un facilities. they all have terrorism infrastructure
  • 00:17:59.986 --> 00:18:02.522
  • Embedded deep within them. hamas violates every single
  • 00:18:02.522 --> 00:18:05.392
  • Code of international law and warfare law by operating within
  • 00:18:05.392 --> 00:18:09.963
  • Civilian population, within hospitals, which is their
  • 00:18:09.963 --> 00:18:13.667
  • Favorite within unwra and un facilities. and of course,
  • 00:18:13.667 --> 00:18:16.470
  • Within mosques. there's nothing that's holy to them, nothing
  • 00:18:16.470 --> 00:18:18.839
  • That they won't do to cause harm, both to their people and
  • 00:18:18.839 --> 00:18:22.676
  • To the people of israel. one more important thing that i
  • 00:18:22.676 --> 00:18:28.381
  • Want to tell you is the fact that this entire area behind me,
  • 00:18:28.381 --> 00:18:33.086
  • The jenin refugee camp, had a massive amount of terrorism
  • 00:18:33.086 --> 00:18:36.389
  • Infrastructure in it, the idf, and i've stated this before,
  • 00:18:36.389 --> 00:18:39.693
  • The idf had to systematically pull up much of the road
  • 00:18:39.693 --> 00:18:43.563
  • Infrastructure here and destroy many of many of the homes and
  • 00:18:43.563 --> 00:18:45.899
  • Buildings, because they carried within them a very substantial
  • 00:18:45.899 --> 00:18:48.768
  • Amount of terrorism infrastructure. what does that
  • 00:18:48.768 --> 00:18:50.537
  • Mean? that means about a thousand ieds on the sides of
  • 00:18:50.537 --> 00:18:53.773
  • The road. it means bomb labs. it means manufacturing
  • 00:18:53.773 --> 00:18:57.911
  • Facilities for for makeshift weapons. it means weapons
  • 00:18:57.911 --> 00:19:00.447
  • Caches and stashes throughout this region. so much so that
  • 00:19:00.447 --> 00:19:05.085
  • The idf had to systematically go through many of these places
  • 00:19:05.085 --> 00:19:07.621
  • And many of these homes to really tear them out and remove
  • 00:19:07.621 --> 00:19:10.690
  • That infrastructure. and one more important thing is the idf
  • 00:19:10.690 --> 00:19:13.527
  • Is also involved in rebuilding this area. they're repaving
  • 00:19:13.527 --> 00:19:17.397
  • Roads and rebuilding roads. so the people, when they come back,
  • 00:19:17.397 --> 00:19:20.967
  • Will have a better infrastructure to operate in.
  • 00:19:20.967 --> 00:19:28.141
  • The idf has been operating here since early in the year. it's
  • 00:19:28.141 --> 00:19:32.379
  • About seven months now of an ongoing operation in which over
  • 00:19:32.379 --> 00:19:35.782
  • A thousand ieds have been removed, countless weapon
  • 00:19:35.782 --> 00:19:38.852
  • Caches, countless terrorists were removed from this area,
  • 00:19:38.852 --> 00:19:41.588
  • But also cash. now the idf tells us something very
  • 00:19:41.588 --> 00:19:44.925
  • Interesting. their goal is not to destroy this area. their
  • 00:19:44.925 --> 00:19:47.661
  • Goal is to allow life to go back to normal in this area.
  • 00:19:47.661 --> 00:19:51.498
  • The level of devastation here is nothing like what you've
  • 00:19:51.498 --> 00:19:53.934
  • Seen in the gaza strip. also, obviously the depth of
  • 00:19:53.934 --> 00:19:56.703
  • Terrorism infrastructure is not as intense, but the idf has
  • 00:19:56.703 --> 00:19:59.306
  • Only reportedly ruined about a between 150 to 300 homes in
  • 00:19:59.306 --> 00:20:04.544
  • This refugee camp out of over 1500 in each one of these homes
  • 00:20:04.544 --> 00:20:08.882
  • Was vast terrorism, infrastructure or fighting
  • 00:20:08.882 --> 00:20:11.751
  • Forces that were embedded in the place. so again, janine is
  • 00:20:11.751 --> 00:20:15.455
  • The place where terrorism tries to enter into israel, where the
  • 00:20:15.455 --> 00:20:18.892
  • Global proxy war of global jihad and global terrorism
  • 00:20:18.892 --> 00:20:23.129
  • Tries to gain a foothold inside this land and where it tries to
  • 00:20:23.129 --> 00:20:26.666
  • Go from here into the rest of judea and samaria and then into
  • 00:20:26.666 --> 00:20:30.503
  • Israel proper. this is a very, very unique e
  • 00:20:30.503 --> 00:20:33.740
  • Geographically, politically, as far as terrorism goes. and
  • 00:20:33.740 --> 00:20:36.309
  • That's why the idf has embedded so much effort, has invested so
  • 00:20:36.309 --> 00:20:40.247
  • Much intelligence and operational forces in this area
  • 00:20:40.247 --> 00:20:42.515
  • To really root out the deep rooted terrorism that exists in
  • 00:20:42.515 --> 00:20:46.519
  • This place. now, it's not one single organization. it's not
  • 00:20:46.519 --> 00:20:49.756
  • Just hamas or fatah. it's a mixture of various
  • 00:20:49.756 --> 00:20:53.226
  • Organizations where the people have a very loose affiliation
  • 00:20:53.226 --> 00:20:55.662
  • And tied to them. some people might be islamic jihad, some
  • 00:20:55.662 --> 00:20:59.332
  • Might be hamas, some might be plo, but they move and flow in
  • 00:20:59.332 --> 00:21:02.702
  • And out of these different organizations in a very fluid
  • 00:21:02.702 --> 00:21:05.505
  • Manner. their affiliation is more to the geography, the
  • 00:21:05.505 --> 00:21:08.441
  • Topography of the place, to the clan association that they have
  • 00:21:08.441 --> 00:21:11.711
  • Versus a very specific or direct link to a terrorist
  • 00:21:11.711 --> 00:21:15.582
  • Organization. and that is the, in a nutshell, the picture of
  • 00:21:15.582 --> 00:21:18.618
  • Terrorism in judea and samaria. it's now heavily influenced by
  • 00:21:18.618 --> 00:21:21.521
  • Outside forces, but also not strongly affiliated. and
  • 00:21:21.521 --> 00:21:24.557
  • Without the structure of hierarchy. the traditional
  • 00:21:24.557 --> 00:21:27.327
  • Terrorist organizations used to have. and that makes things
  • 00:21:27.327 --> 00:21:30.263
  • More difficult, but also allows the idf to really do a
  • 00:21:30.263 --> 00:21:33.400
  • Grassroots operation and eliminate terrorism from this
  • 00:21:33.400 --> 00:21:37.070
  • Part of judea and samaria. what you've just seen, what i've
  • 00:21:37.070 --> 00:21:45.312
  • Been experiencing these last hours in jenin, specifically in
  • 00:21:45.312 --> 00:21:48.181
  • The jenin refugee camp, is evidence of what is truly
  • 00:21:48.181 --> 00:21:51.618
  • Happening in this part of the world. it's a combination of
  • 00:21:51.618 --> 00:21:55.155
  • Incredible external threats. the iranians, other terrorist
  • 00:21:55.155 --> 00:21:59.359
  • Movements, islamic jihad in the global sense of it, trying to
  • 00:21:59.359 --> 00:22:03.630
  • Come and infiltrate into israel. and right behind me, this is
  • 00:22:03.630 --> 00:22:07.300
  • The place where it all happens, right here in northern samaria.
  • 00:22:07.300 --> 00:22:12.472
  • And the reason is we're close on the one side on the eastern
  • 00:22:12.472 --> 00:22:16.309
  • Border to jordan, to the smuggling routes that are
  • 00:22:16.309 --> 00:22:18.712
  • Attempting to bring in weapons and explosives into this part
  • 00:22:18.712 --> 00:22:21.514
  • Of the world. we're also at the same place where the city
  • 00:22:21.514 --> 00:22:24.451
  • Centers of northern samaria are those that absorb some of the
  • 00:22:24.451 --> 00:22:28.888
  • Iranian cash and influence that is trying to indoctrinate and
  • 00:22:28.888 --> 00:22:31.691
  • Fund the terrorism machine of the palestinians in judea and
  • 00:22:31.691 --> 00:22:34.394
  • Samaria and, of course, in gaza. but we're also close enough to
  • 00:22:34.394 --> 00:22:38.298
  • Israeli civilian population that these people want to feed
  • 00:22:38.298 --> 00:22:42.001
  • That evil into israel and into the rest of the jewish and
  • 00:22:42.001 --> 00:22:46.539
  • Palestinian villages and cities in this region. and that is why
  • 00:22:46.539 --> 00:22:50.910
  • The idf has been operating with so much effort, so much
  • 00:22:50.910 --> 00:22:53.513
  • Delicacy in this area. what you've seen is evidence of how
  • 00:22:53.513 --> 00:22:57.417
  • Careful the idf is not to destroy homes, infrastructure
  • 00:22:57.417 --> 00:23:00.420
  • Or lives of our enemy population. we've gone through
  • 00:23:00.420 --> 00:23:05.191
  • Painstaking and careful work to make sure that the only thing
  • 00:23:05.191 --> 00:23:09.062
  • We hurt are the terrorists and their infrastructure. in fact,
  • 00:23:09.062 --> 00:23:12.432
  • The idf told us during this visit that there were almost no
  • 00:23:12.432 --> 00:23:15.668
  • Civilian casualties inside or non-combative casualties in
  • 00:23:15.668 --> 00:23:19.339
  • This ongoing war in judea and samaria, except for a handful.
  • 00:23:19.339 --> 00:23:23.276
  • And although that is of course, lamentable, we've gone through
  • 00:23:23.276 --> 00:23:26.246
  • Extreme efforts to make sure the only people we hurt are
  • 00:23:26.246 --> 00:23:29.549
  • Those who deserve it the terrorists. now, that is the
  • 00:23:29.549 --> 00:23:32.252
  • Face of israel in warfare, an army that carefully,
  • 00:23:32.252 --> 00:23:35.388
  • Painstakingly, at a great cost makes sure that it doesn't hurt
  • 00:23:35.388 --> 00:23:39.325
  • Anyone, that does not deserve to be hurt, that we fight
  • 00:23:39.325 --> 00:23:42.395
  • Against terrorists and not against our friends. that we
  • 00:23:42.395 --> 00:23:45.231
  • Fight against militants and combatants and never hurt
  • 00:23:45.231 --> 00:23:48.468
  • Civilian population. and at the same time that we use a swift
  • 00:23:48.468 --> 00:23:52.806
  • And strong arm against the evil that is so prevalent, that is
  • 00:23:52.806 --> 00:23:56.376
  • So existent in this part of the world, the global jihad
  • 00:23:56.376 --> 00:23:59.446
  • Movement, the desire of the iranians to destroy the peace
  • 00:23:59.446 --> 00:24:02.515
  • And the quality of life of our people, and the desire of that
  • 00:24:02.515 --> 00:24:05.552
  • Mindset to really bring an end to the miracle that is israel.
  • 00:24:05.552 --> 00:24:09.255
  • And this is what we're fighting. this is what the idf is
  • 00:24:09.255 --> 00:24:12.592
  • Fighting in jenin. that's what it's fighting throughout judea
  • 00:24:12.592 --> 00:24:15.361
  • And samaria. this is what we've seen throughout this ongoing,
  • 00:24:15.361 --> 00:24:17.397
  • Almost two year long war. the idf and the people of israel
  • 00:24:17.397 --> 00:24:21.234
  • Fighting for what's good for what is right, and an evil that
  • 00:24:21.234 --> 00:24:24.604
  • Exists outside of the boundaries of our country that
  • 00:24:24.604 --> 00:24:26.406
  • Is trying to force that ideology on this region to
  • 00:24:26.406 --> 00:24:30.076
  • Break the miracle that is this land, the careful balance that
  • 00:24:30.076 --> 00:24:33.213
  • Is this land. we need you to be aware of that, to spread the
  • 00:24:33.213 --> 00:24:37.984
  • Truth and to pray for what's happening in this region.
  • 00:24:37.984 --> 00:24:44.491
  • >> i hope that our report helped you understand better
  • 00:24:44.491 --> 00:24:48.161
  • About what's going on. now, one second, before we pray together
  • 00:24:48.161 --> 00:24:52.065
  • For the people of israel, let's take a short commercial break
  • 00:24:52.065 --> 00:24:56.769
  • And we'll be right back. a war zone in the gaza strip, been
  • 00:24:56.769 --> 00:25:05.478
  • Under fire by hamas terrorists. you don't have time to sit and
  • 00:25:05.478 --> 00:25:09.315
  • Drink your coffee and wake up in the morning and get ready
  • 00:25:09.315 --> 00:25:12.652
  • For the day and prepare. so sometimes i woke up at two in
  • 00:25:12.652 --> 00:25:16.256
  • The morning after an hour and a half of sleep, and you need to
  • 00:25:16.256 --> 00:25:20.527
  • Wake up immediately and do your job and do it to perfection. or
  • 00:25:20.527 --> 00:25:24.063
  • People die.
  • 00:25:24.063 --> 00:25:25.565
  • >> you literally have your life on the line. you don't know
  • 00:25:25.565 --> 00:25:29.469
  • What corner you turn and somebody got a gun pointed at
  • 00:25:29.469 --> 00:25:34.307
  • You.
  • 00:25:34.307 --> 00:25:35.575
  • >> so we know that we wake up. i just took a pill and i really
  • 00:25:35.575 --> 00:25:40.179
  • Felt the energy levels go up faster. the clarity of mind
  • 00:25:40.179 --> 00:25:44.150
  • That doesn't usually happen immediately when you wake up in
  • 00:25:44.150 --> 00:25:47.053
  • The morning. and i don't remember taking much stuff with
  • 00:25:47.053 --> 00:25:50.023
  • Me into the gaza strip. had my sleeping bag, a flashlight, and
  • 00:25:50.023 --> 00:25:53.993
  • A vineyard bottle. so that's what i had with me.
  • 00:25:53.993 --> 00:25:58.598
  • >> you're a young person. you're very healthy, but you
  • 00:25:58.598 --> 00:26:01.367
  • Still think that vinea was helpful to get you to even a
  • 00:26:01.367 --> 00:26:04.037
  • Higher level of performance?
  • 00:26:04.037 --> 00:26:05.338
  • >> it's helping me to exceed my normal abilities. so let's say,
  • 00:26:05.338 --> 00:26:10.276
  • You know, i'm at 100%, and that puts me at 120. we're raising
  • 00:26:10.276 --> 00:26:15.048
  • Three kids. you need to be sharp to make the right
  • 00:26:15.048 --> 00:26:18.017
  • Decisions.
  • 00:26:18.017 --> 00:26:18.918
  • >> raising three kids may be equal to combat.
  • 00:26:19.018 --> 00:26:21.421
  • >> a lot harder, a lot harder. listen, i'm still taking every
  • 00:26:21.421 --> 00:26:25.391
  • Day because i want to be there with my kids when they grow old.
  • 00:26:25.391 --> 00:26:29.262
  • I want to be able to dance at their wedding and carry my kids
  • 00:26:29.262 --> 00:26:33.032
  • And my grandkids for years to come. and this is the time to
  • 00:26:33.032 --> 00:26:35.969
  • Start. i mean, when you're young.
  • 00:26:35.969 --> 00:26:40.995
  • Start. i mean, when you're young.
  • 00:26:40.995 --> 00:26:43.650
  • Thank you for coming back to us. and now let's unite
  • 00:26:44.751 --> 00:26:49.089
  • In prayer for the people of israel, for the idf, and above
  • 00:26:49.089 --> 00:26:52.158
  • All, for god's will to be done in this region. remember that
  • 00:26:52.158 --> 00:26:57.063
  • This is a spiritual war. how do we fight a spiritual war? we
  • 00:26:57.063 --> 00:27:01.401
  • Pray. i believe that the next step that we need to do here is
  • 00:27:01.401 --> 00:27:06.206
  • To share the truth, so that more people will know what's
  • 00:27:06.206 --> 00:27:09.109
  • Happening, because the enemy is using lies, and that's what we
  • 00:27:09.109 --> 00:27:12.078
  • Are doing here. but when we pray, god can open his heart to
  • 00:27:12.078 --> 00:27:17.951
  • Yours and tell you what he wants you to do in this
  • 00:27:17.951 --> 00:27:21.221
  • Situation. i believe that god told me to pray for the enemies
  • 00:27:21.221 --> 00:27:25.291
  • Of israel, my enemies, the ones that are firing rockets at my
  • 00:27:25.291 --> 00:27:29.195
  • Family. that was a very, very hard calling for me personally.
  • 00:27:29.195 --> 00:27:32.999
  • But i believe that when we pray for our enemies, we shouldn't
  • 00:27:32.999 --> 00:27:38.304
  • Pray for them to succeed in their missions to destroy us.
  • 00:27:38.304 --> 00:27:40.974
  • We should pray that they will have a change of heart, that
  • 00:27:40.974 --> 00:27:43.910
  • God will fill their hearts with loor the jewish people, for
  • 00:27:43.910 --> 00:27:48.214
  • The people of israel. and then this entire region could live
  • 00:27:48.214 --> 00:27:52.452
  • In peace, the peace of jerusalem. that's what we're
  • 00:27:52.452 --> 00:27:56.322
  • Praying for. so guys, keep praying for the peace of
  • 00:27:56.322 --> 00:28:00.293
  • Jerusalem and make sure that you spend time with god to
  • 00:28:00.293 --> 00:28:05.632
  • Understand what he wants in your life.
  • 00:28:05.632 --> 00:28:05.632
