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 L’Chaim – To Life regular Israel contributor Effi Yaacobi, about Israel's uplifting day of joy and hope, with the IDF Shayetet 13 special forces’ stunning rescue of October 7 Hamas hostage, 52 year old Israeli Bedouin Qaid Farhan Al-Qadi. The successful Gaza rescue came shortly after the IAF's very successful pre-emptive strike against Hezbollah in the south of Lebanon, which had imminent plans to launch an imminent massive barrage of rockets and anti-tank missiles into Israel. According to reports, the Israeli strikes not only disrupted Hezbollah's immediate plans, it also inflicted severe damage on their missile infrastructure, including underground facilities. Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah, is being ridiculed in the Arab media - deservedly so. You can contact Effi at efyac@netvision.net.il

Maurice Klein speaks with our Israeli tour guide Effi Yaacobi for an Israel update. Effi tells us about the current state of tourism to Israel, who is coming and the impact visiting the devastation and destruction has had on his clients. The IDF continues to roll through Gaza with great success destroying much of the Hamas terrorists military infrastructure and capacity putting pressure on Hamas to revive the ceasefire negotiations, with some improved prospects re the return of the hostages. Due to manpower strains, the Israel government has approved a plan to temporarily extend compulsory IDF military service for men from 32 months to 36 months. With the wars and economic issues Israel is subsequently having to contend with, Google is displaying absolute confidence in Israel with advanced talks to buy Israel tech company WIZ for US twenty three billion dollars, in what will be the biggest ever Israel tech acquisition, that will also generate a tax windfall during the Gaza war.
