CEO of CBN-Christian Broadcasting Network’s Gordon Robertson told The Jerusalem Post conference on Sunday that he realized that”Israel is constantly being subjected to inflammatory words like ‘occupation’ and apartheid,’ but having been to Israel so many times, I said we must do what we can to change the narrative and combat the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement and tell the real story of what Israel is doing.”

Last week, Im Tirtzu launched a new campaign against the New Israel Fund in light of the NIF’s increased anti-Israel activities.
The campaign began by placing a 100-foot long billboard on Tel-Aviv’s Ayalon Highway (along with hanging thousands of smaller posters throughout Israel), and by publishing a new report detailing the NIF’s modus operandi in delegitimizing Israel.
Below are two new videos from the campaign.

US President Donald Trump may travel to Israel next month to attend the opening of the new US Embassy in Jerusalem.

Reports over the weekend state that the Trump administration is seriously considering allowing Jonathan Pollard to move to Israel as urged by US and Israeli officials at The Jerusalem Post Conference in New York on Sunday.
AFSI strongly supports Jonathan Pollard’s immigration to Israel and would love to see it happen in conjunction with the forthcoming opening of the US embassy in Jerusalem.

AFSI demonstrated over two years ago on behalf of Elisha Odess who is still in jail allegedly for the Duma arson crime, although endless interrogation and torture have proven nothing. Our position was,INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY. His case has still NOT come to trial. Now we have a report about the Shabak FRAMING Jewish hilltop youth. This is an intolerable situation which MUST STOP.
Apparently, the Justice Department is unable to override the actions of the Shabak. Although we appreciate the many necessary activities of the Shabak to provide safety to Israel’s citizens, we deplore its subversive, cruel, and destructive actions against idealistic Jewish youth who might live on the hilltops of Judea and Samaria. These young pioneers are working with their parents, or going it alone, in preserving Israel’s hold on Jewish land. The Shabak framing and targeting of the youth must end.
