U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee: The reason I use the terms Judea and Samaria is because they’re the ancient biblical terms of this land. 80% of the Bible happened in the area, Judea, Samaria.

Former CIA Director David Petraeus on Ukraine: Ukrainians have hit all these oil storage and refinery capabilities. They’ve hit every single refinery within 3,000 kilometers of Ukraine. They haven’t destroyed them. Some are still functioning, but a number are completely offline. The damage inflicted is enormous, and it is continuing — and it’s going to get worse.

Netanyahu on October 7: Could October 7 have been stopped? Because if [the warning] had reached me, I would have acted immediately. We would have acted immediately. I would have awakened the entire IDF, I would have alerted the communities, the local security teams, and I would have told the Air Force to strike if anyone even tried to cross the fence. Maybe some would still have managed to cross, but we would have eliminated them. I don’t think they did it as part of some conspiracy or betra
