Moshe Ya’alon Admits Tacit Israel-ISIS Alliance

American Herald Tribune– Israel’s former minister of military affairs Moshe Ya’alon has admitted to a tacit alliance with ISIS, saying the group had “immediately apologized” to Tel Aviv after firing “once” into Israel.

International media outlets have already reported extensively on Israeli commandos’ missions inside Syria to rescue wounded militants but a senior regime official’s acknowledgement of a link with ISIS is unprecedented.

Ya’alon’s explosive revelation came during an interview reported Saturday on Israeli Channel 10’s website, content portal Mako, which acts as a gateway to Israeli media outlets and websites.

Mako also incorporated footage of the event in the northern city of Afula, during which the former military affairs chief was seen describing an occasion in which Syria-based ISIS terrorists had fired into the Golan Heights.

Golan is a Syrian territory, which Tel Aviv has been occupying since 1967 and lays claim on it as its own property. Save some rare alleged rocket attacks from Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula, for which ISIS has reportedly claimed responsibility and have not resulted in any human injury or losses, the group has generally refused to target either Israel or the territories under its occupation.

Six Jews, Including Two Soldiers, Arrested for anti-Arab Attacks.

Suspects were said to have attacked victims with knives, clubs, metal bars and other weapons beginning in 2016

Six Jewish residents of Be'er Sheva, including two conscripted soldiers and a minor, were charged with a series of racist attacks against Arabs in the city, police said Sunday.
The suspects were said to have attacked their victims with knives, clubs, metal bars and other weapons beginning in December, 2016.
The suspects were allegedly involved in at least five incidents of assault since then.
According to police, the investigation revealed that the attacks aimed "to prevent the assimilation of Jews and Arabs in Be'er Sheva," and that some of them watched video material from the right-wing group Lehava that focused on "saving Jewish women who are married to Arabs," and called themselves "supporters of the organization," but weren't active members.
Indictments were to be served against the suspects in a Be'er Sheva District court on Sunday. The indictments were to include charges of "terrorist actions."
