Maurice Klein speaks with Effi Yaacobi, our L'Chaim Israel tour guide, who provides us with an extensive update and understanding of the ceasefire accord between Israel and Hezbollah, which was brokered by the United States and France and is set to halt the war that Hezbollah launched October 2023, along the Israel-Lebanon border. If there are no violations from Hezbollah, and the ceasefire holds, the northern Israeli communities devastated by a year of relentless Hezbollah rocket fire, may perhaps be in the secure situation that should at least enable them to commence some planning for the future. The ICC kangaroo court with its Israel hating Muslim leadership is akin to having Nazis in charge of the Nuremberg trials. To contact Effi, email him at: efyaac@netvision.net.il.

Maurice Klein speaks with Roz Mandelle, co-founder and director of the nascent Queensland Jewish Collective, which formed the first Jewish "Third Party Campaigner" with the Australian Hindu Association, and the Iran Novin Party in order to actively campaign against The Greens in the recent Queensland State Election. The Greens' stance on Hindu and Jewish issues has been consistently divisive and misinformed, fostering hatred and harming social cohesion. Additionally, The Greens have supported recognised terrorist groups who act as proxies of the Islamic Regime of Iran. These policies foster hatred and create harmful divisions within our society, promoting radicalism, extremism and a disregard for human life. Our shared mission is to build strong, inclusive communities across Australia. The campaign urged the public to consider the implications of voting for the Greens in this state election.
