Three people were arrested in the incident, which occurred when the PM and his family were not at home. …

Israel Police’s Lahav 433 major-crimes unit and Shin Bet intelligence agency said they are investigating the incident, which they slammed as a “dangerous escalation” of the protests targeting the embattled prime minister, the Times of Israel said.

Netanyahu stands under increased scrutiny over not just the ongoing war in Gaza and Lebanon but also for corruption charges that a judge recently ruled he would have to stand on trial for come December.

Officials from all spectrums of Israel’s leadership condemned Sunday’s crime, with President Isaac Herzog urging his citizens to avoid political violence at such a tumultuous time. …

Amir Ohana, the speaker of Israel’s parliament, claimed the incident was a direct result of the Israeli justice department failing to crack down on heated discourse as it pushed for Netanyahu to stand trial. …

The incident comes just a month after Netanyahu’s house was hit by an explosive Hezbollah drone, with the blast splintering one of the prime minister’s bedroom windows. …

From CBN. Author Joel Rosenberg believes some of the events unfolding around us hold biblical significance, particularly when it comes to Israel and the Middle East.

Rosenberg, an expert on biblical prophecy who now lives in Israel, recently spoke with CBN News about Hamas, the war in Gaza, and how current events might play into what the Bible says about future happenings and the end of days.

“That is the No. 1 question I’m getting asked … ‘Can you put this [current moment] in a prophetic context?’” Rosenberg said. “I would say, No. 1, we’re definitely in a birth pang, right? Jesus speaks in Matthew 24 that there’s going to be contractions and releases, moments of wars and rumors of wars, and kingdom against kingdom, nation against nation, as well as earthquakes and famines and other disasters.” …

Rosenberg said Israelis were living in a time of release on Oct. 6, 2023, as it was safe, prosperous, and secure — the safest it had been in modern history. …

But all of that peace was obliterated by Hamas’ horrific terror attack on Oct. 7, 2023, an event he said was the “longest contraction” modern Israel has faced. …

Rosenberg cited Amos 9:9 while discussing Israel’s current war after the Hamas invasion. That verse reads (NIV): “For I will give the command, and I will shake the people of Israel among all the nations as grain is shaken in a sieve, and not a pebble will reach the ground.” …

“I don’t believe Israel’s under judgment … in other words, God didn’t send this enemy, but God … allowed it,” Rosenberg said. “Why? To shake us, to help us realize that most Israelis either haven’t read, don’t remember, or don’t care about Psalm 23, in which David, our greatest king, told us the Lord is our shepherd.” …

“We forgot as a nation that there are ravenous wolves trying to destroy us,” he said. “It shows what a moment of release of security we felt like we were in. But I think this is a wake-up call.”

As for the Palestinians of Gaza, Rosenberg said he believes they are facing a “biblical judgment,” appealing to Genesis 12:1-3 (NIV) to make his case. …

“If you curse Israel every day for 76 years, and you want to … elect a genocidal government, even if later you don’t want that, but what are you going to do now?” he said. “I believe we’re seeing a judgment. Doesn’t mean God doesn’t want to show mercy. Also, we need to pray as Christians. Who else is praying for the Palestinians? We need to be. We need to show compassion. But there’s a judgment going on from 76 years of hatred, hostility, cursing, and now, you know, an attempt at genocide against Israel and the Jewish people.” …
