US Vice President JD Vance and Iran's negotiating team have all arrived in Switzerland for "peace" talks.

Every refugee agency is supposed to reduce the number of refugees.

Except one.

UNRWA has turned Palestinian refugee status into an inherited political identity — passed down generation after generation, while every other refugee crisis is expected to move toward resettlement, citizenship, and resolution.

Israel absorbed Holocaust survivors, Jews expelled from Arab lands, Ethiopian Jews, Soviet Jews, and others.

They were not kept as permanent refugees.

They became citizens.

They became Israelis.

That is the difference between building a future and preserving a grievance.

Israeli forces last week eliminated the terrorists Hussein Qadra and Mohammed Farra, operatives in the military wings of the Hamas and Islamic Jihad (PIJ) terrorist organizations. The terrorists operated within a Hamas-run financial network responsible for transferring funds into the Gaza Strip.

US Ambassador Mike Huckabee: “The US designates Hezbollah as a terror organization. They are a malignant cancer & have killed hundreds of Americans. They are common enemy of Lebanon & Israel. They occupy civilian homes in Lebanon to store weapons & fire drones & rockets into civilian targets in Israel. Evil.”

Abdollah Haji Sadeghi, the Iranian Supreme Leader’s representative to the IRGC: “Iran will never be friends with America, and will never give up its quest to eliminate the Zionist entity.”

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian reiterates that his nation will not stop enriching uranium.

History is never just politics.

Wars, broken promises, shifting alliances, and pressure on Israel are not new. But from a biblical perspective, they may point to something deeper: Israel being pushed to stand in faith, strength, and covenant identity.

“Redemption draws near,” the rabbi says.

For those with eyes to see, the story of Israel is still being written by the God of Israel.
