Agudath Israel of America Thanks President Trump for his Decisive Action
The following letter was sent by Mr. Sol Werdiger, Chairman of the Board of Agudath Israel of America and Rabbi Chaim Dovid Zwiebel, Executive Vice President of Agudath Israel of America, to President Donald Trump:
Dear Mr. President:
We write on behalf of Agudath Israel of America, a 103-year-old national Orthodox Jewish organization, to convey our heartfelt appreciation to you for the bold and decisive actions you took on Saturday to prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear bomb.
Iran has made no secret of its design to annihilate Israel – may it never come to pass! This has been its goal ever since the Islamic Revolution of 1979, when its leaders referred to Israel as a “cancerous tumor” that must be eliminated from the face of this earth. The threat to Israel posed by Iranian nuclear capacity would be existential.
Iran has no credibility with respect to its nuclear program. It has proceeded with impunity to violate its nuclear nonproliferation obligations, as the International Atomic Energy Agency recently detailed in a report where it described Iran’s “rapid accumulation of highly enriched uranium,” and Iran’s failure to provide “technically credible answers regarding the nuclear material at three locations.”
As you know, Mr. President, it’s not just Israel that has an interest in blocking Iran’s nefarious designs. The entire free world has a stake in a de-nuclearized Iran. As you said in your remarks on Saturday, Iran is “the world’s number one state sponsor of terror.” Your courageous actions struck a blow at the heart of global terror. Thank you.
We also thank you, Mr. President, for giving G-d such prominent mention in your moving remarks. Hashem is Master of the Universe, and we pray to Him that we will one day soon see everlasting peace in the Middle East and across the globe.
With our warmest wishes and deep appreciation,
Sol Werdiger
Chairman of the Board
Rabbi David Zwiebel
Executive Vice President

Southern Command Chief: ‘We Can’t Tolerate Hamas Here, War Won’t End Until Threat Ends’
Major General Yaniv Asor, who leads the IDF’s Southern Command, paid a visit on Monday to the troops of the 252nd Division. During his address, he spoke about the ongoing military campaign in Gaza and reiterated the central objectives of Operation Swords of Iron.
“Since October 7th, we have been at war — a war for our right to live as a free people in our country, a war to preserve the Jewish homeland. These are historic days in which we are initiating, we are surprising, we are daring, and we are striking Iran—the head of the snake,” Asor said.
He emphasized that Hamas cannot be allowed to remain in Gaza and that victory in this campaign is essential. “We cannot tolerate Hamas here — we will not end this war until the threat has been eliminated. It is this campaign which brings us closer to returning the hostages and the fallen. I fully believe that we will not stop until we bring our living brothers and sisters home. This mission lives deep within us,” he said.
Asor highlighted the determination of the IDF and the importance of holding strategic ground to defend nearby Israeli towns. “With a spirit of initiative and offense, determination and perseverance—unrelenting perseverance—we will not stop until you have taken these ridges, the ridge that overlooks Gaza and dramatically improves our ability to protect Netivot, Sderot, Ofakim, Sa’ad, Kibbutz Gaza, Alumim, and Nahal Oz.”
He concluded by describing the emotional and strategic significance of the high ground. “When civilians look up to this ridge, they see the Israeli flag, they see IDF posts, and they feel safe enough to return. We will not stop until we defeat Hamas and bring our hostages home,” the head of the Southern Command concluded.

Israel Reportedly Tells Iran That It’s Aiming to End War Within Coming Days
According to a report by Israel’s Channel 12, Israel has conveyed messages to Iran expressing its desire to bring the current exchange of missiles and aerial strikes to a conclusion within a matter of days.
High-ranking Israeli sources told the outlet that Israel believes it is on the verge of reaching its key military objectives. Nevertheless, they emphasized that Israel retains the ability to intensify its response by targeting thousands of strategic sites that could severely weaken Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei’s regime.
The report also noted that Israel is using its strategy in Lebanon as a blueprint to prevent Iran from reestablishing its nuclear and missile programs. Since Hezbollah agreed to a ceasefire in November, Israel has carried out numerous strikes against the group’s personnel and facilities, aiming to prevent the Iran-aligned organization from launching future attacks or restoring its military infrastructure.

Yossi Dagan’s International Campaign: Nobel Peace Prize for Trump and Netanyahu
Yossi Dagan, who serves as the head of the Samaria Regional Council, has launched a global initiative urging the Nobel Peace Prize committee to recognize Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu and US President Donald Trump for their leadership in dismantling Iran’s nuclear threat.
This proposal follows the coordinated US-Israeli strikes that neutralized Iran’s nuclear weapons infrastructure. These actions, conducted through Operations Rising Lion and Midnight Hammer, dealt a severe blow to Iran’s military strength and nuclear ambitions, which had long endangered regional and global peace, especially targeting Israel.
To support this initiative, banners and posters promoting the nomination of Netanyahu and Trump will be displayed across various locations in Israel, the United States, and Europe. The effort is being backed financially by Friends of Samaria organizations based in both countries. A key location where one of the signs will be placed is the Trump Lookout, situated at the Gutnik Center in Peduel, in the heart of Samaria.
Some months ago, Dagan revealed that the Israel Lookout in Peduel would be officially renamed in honor of Donald Trump. That announcement was later highlighted by President Trump himself, who posted about it on his Truth Social platform.
The signs will read in English: “Trump and Netanyahu: The Shomron nominates you for a Nobel Prize.”
דגן מציין כי פריצת הדרך ההיסטורית ביחסים בין ישראל למדינות ערב, יחד עם הגישה הבלתי מתפשרת כלפי מעשי הטרור והמלחמה של איראן, מבטאת שינוי מהותי ועמוק באזור, וכי יש להכיר בתרומתם של שני המנהיגים לכך.“אני קורא לכולם, גם מימין וגם משמאל, להתאחד סביב ההכרה בהישג האדיר הזה שהביאו שני המנהיגים האדירים הללו. טראמפ ונתניהו פועלים בנחישות ובאומץ להתמודדות חזיתית עם האיום הגדול ביותר על יציבות המזרח התיכון והעולם המערבי כולו – איראן חמושה בנשק גרעיני”.
דגן המשיך, “זה הדבר היחיד שיכול להביא את השלום ולייצר מזרח תיכון חדש אבל הפעם באמת. עוד אמר דגן: נתניהו הוא הראש והוא האחראי לשינוי ההיסטורי שמתחולל כאן- אתם, טראמפ ונתניהו האחראים לשינוי הדרמטי במערך הכוחות במזרח התיכון שנותן סיכוי לשלום אמיתי באיזור. יש להוקיר את תעוזתם ואת חזונם שהביאו לשיתופי פעולה חסרי תקדים ולתקווה חדשה במזרח התיכון, שאינו מושתת על כניעה לטרור ולאלימות, אלא על אינטרסים משותפים. שלום אמת, ובלימת האיום החמור המסכן את שלום העולם – של איראן החמושה בנשק גרעיני. כל עמי האזור והעולם תומכים במעשיהם הנועזים של המנהיגים האדירים הללו בנימין נתניהו ודונלד טראמפ. ואת הדבר הזה יש להכיר ולהוקיר.”

Trump Warns Russia Against Giving Nukes to Iran
As Iranian and Russian officials convened Monday to revisit prior defense and security arrangements, President Donald Trump issued a sharp warning regarding any attempts by Russia to provide Iran with nuclear weapons.
“Did I hear Former President Medvedev, from Russia, casually throwing around the ‘N word’ (Nuclear!), and saying that he and other countries would supply Nuclear Warheads to Iran?” Trump asked in a Truth Social post on Monday. “Did he really say that or, is it just a figment of my imagination? If he did say that, and, if confirmed, please let me know, IMMEDIATELY.”
Dmitry Medvedev, who held the Russian presidency from 2008 to 2012 during the interim between Vladimir Putin’s terms, now serves as deputy chairman of the Russian Security Council and remains closely aligned with Putin.
In recent years, Russia, China, and North Korea have increasingly aligned themselves in a geopolitical bloc. Medvedev reportedly stated on Sunday that “a number of countries” are “ready to directly supply Iran with their own nuclear warheads.”
“The ‘N word’ should not be treated so casually,” Trump’s post continued, criticizing the remarks and pointing to Putin’s ultimate authority. “I guess that’s why Putin’s ‘THE BOSS.’”
Trump also issued a caution to any actors considering the transfer of nuclear weapons to Iran, noting the unmatched capability and readiness of American military technology stationed in strategic zones.
“By the way, if anyone thinks our ‘hardware’ was great over the weekend, far and away the strongest and best equipment we have, 20 years advanced over the pack, is our nuclear submarines,” Trump’s statement concluded.
“They are the most powerful and lethal weapons ever built, and just launched the 30 Tomahawks — all 30 hit their mark perfectly. So, in addition to our Great Fighter Pilots, thank you to the Captain and Crew!”
Though Iran has threatened retaliation against U.S. troops, interests, and even civilians worldwide, those threats have not materialized into concrete actions so far.
Following the Trump administration’s targeted elimination of Qassem Soleimani, commander of Iran’s QUDs Force, Iran mistakenly shot down a commercial airliner within its own borders — a misstep that led to international outrage but no significant Iranian response against Trump at the time.
In the aftermath, Tehran publicly called for Trump and members of his administration to be assassinated.
Just prior to his recent order for strikes on Iran’s nuclear infrastructure, Trump was overheard at a White House flag-raising event saying, “I was the hunted, now I am the hunter.”
