As a lover of Israel, I hope you’re brimming with pride. Israel’s astounding attack on “mighty” Iran last week has utterly decapitated the Islamic Republic.

In fact, amazingly, in just 20 months, Israel has transformed the course of Middle East history forever, shutting down the world’s largest Islamist terror network.

Israel already decimated Iran’s terrorist proxies, Hamas and Hezbollah, and now it brings evil Iran itself to heel—ending its nuclear threat to the entire world . . . as well as its promise of “Death to America, Death to Israel.”

Yet as courageous and righteous as Israel’s military success has been, many media try to pervert Israel’s good deeds.

The New York Times, for example ran two photos side by side—one showing a bombed-out residential building in Tehran, the other a similar photo of a devasted apartment structure in Tel Aviv. Get the message?

Apparently, both Israel and Iran target civilian homes! But that’s a lie. Whereas Israel has precisely and successfully targeted hundreds of Iranian military facilities—including homes of top commanders—Iran ONLY targets Israeli civilians.

Of course the media never inform readers that Iran’s striking purely civilian buildings is a war crime.

How about this example of media deception? NPR reports “Iran’s ministry of health says more than 200 people have been killed [by] Israel’s offensive, including many women and children.”

But NPR! We know the great majority of Iranians killed were military commanders and nuclear scientists. What does “many” women and children mean—21? 14? 7?

It’s just one more proof of media attempts to slander the Jewish state.

HOW FLAME FIGHTS MEDIA SLANDERS

FLAME has been exposing media lies about the Gaza war for the last 20 months—and we’ll continue telling the truth about the fight against Iran.

FLAME has many times exposed the “Gaza famine lie” to hundreds of thousands of Americans via Facebook. Check our report from July of 2024—“Despite UN report denying famine in Gaza, anti-Israel media continue the lie.”

Unfortunately, we can never rest: Anti-Israel media continue their fake news with no shame.

Likewise, at the end of May, mainstream media tried again to scam the American public with two of their perennial lies: Israel is bombing Gaza hospitals and Israel is killing Palestinian journalists—both alleged “war crimes.”

The truth is, Israel bombed Gaza’s Nasser Hospital because the IDF determined the facility was being used as a Hamas command and control center. A Hamas operative and sometime journalist, Hassan Aslih, who took part in Hamas’s invasion of Israel on October 7, was killed in the attack.

A month ago, Israel bombed a tunnel running around and beneath Gaza’s European Hospital, attempting to eliminate Hamas chief Mohammed Sinwar, brother of dead Hamas mastermind Yayah Sinwar. The strike resulted in damage and some deaths in and around the hospital, including Hamas operatives and facilities.

FLAME exposed both the hospital- and journalist-targeting hoaxes in our January report, “Seven latest attacks on Israel by media pervert the truth,” which informed hundreds of thousands of Americans on social media that hospitals used as enemy headquarters are legitimate targets under international law.

FLAME’S NEW EDITORIAL IN MAJOR MEDIA
TELLS HOW BRAVE ISRAEL ALONE FIGHTS THE GLOBAL JIHAD

While Israel has been fiercely fighting—and winning!—against Iran, Hezbollah and Hamas, most Western nations decline to defend themselves from the global jihad. Despite daily attacks on them, many keep calling for ceasefire.

If this hypocrisy bothers you, I think you’ll cheer FLAME’s powerful new ad—which we plan to publish in August in the New York Post, Tampa Bay Times, Denver Post, Chicago Tribune, Washington Post, and the Wall Street Journal.

⇒ “End of the Palestinian Lie”—this hard-hitting message explodes the myth that Palestinians want peace and a state—and advocates Israel’s complete defeat of Hamas and other Palestinian terrorists. (I’ve attached a copy of this ad for you at the close of this letter.)

I hope you’ll support our placement of this ad, which will reach millions of Americans nationwide, including Senators and Representatives in Washington DC. This ad will cost $139,000. Can you chip in now to help us?

HOW FLAME HELPS ISRAEL WIN TODAY’S INFORMATION WAR—
HOW WE CAN SPREAD THESE TRUTHS IN MAINSTREAM MEDIA.

My friends, I think you’ll agree that the mounting antisemitism and drumbeat of anti-Israel reporting in the media these days is unprecedented . . . and scary.

But here’s a beam of hope: For decades FLAME has bravely fought against our enemies—defending Israel against the wide range of falsehoods they aim at her.

Here are just a few of the editorial media ads FLAME has run to spread the truth . . . and defend the Jewish state in mainstream media (see hundreds of them under “PR for Israel” at www.factsandlogic.org.)

►“The Israel Genocide Slander”—refutes the lie that Israel attacks people because of race or ethnicity and proves mushrooming Palestinian population growth: This ad reached nearly 5 million people in the Washington Post, Chicago Tribune, New York Post, Houston Chronicle and Orlando Sentinel.

► “Stop Terrorism on Campus”—shows skyrocketing anti-Zionist bullying and demands school administrators be held to account and how we can fight back. It ran in the New York Post, Tampa Bay Times, Denver Post, Chicago Tribune, Washington Post, Mercury News and Wall Street Journal.

► “What Is Occupied Palestinian Territory?”—proves there’s no such thing as “Palestinian territory” and why Israel’s governance is lawful and just: It was seen by millions in the New York Times and Washington Post.

► “The Palestinian Catastrophe”—explains why Palestinians’ real “nakba” was their failure to accept Israel’s offers of land for peace: We reached six million readers at Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Chicago Tribune, New York Post, Miami Herald, Houston Chronicle and Orlando Sentinel.

► “Democracy Thrives in Israel”—disproves accusations that Israel commits apartheid and shows why Israel is ranked the world’s 23^rd most successful democracy (ahead of the U.S.!): It ran in New York Times, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Chicago Tribune, New York Post, Miami Herald, Houston Chronicle and Mercury News.

HOW MEDIA AND THE UNITED NATIONS PROTECT HAMAS
AND PROMOTE AN ANTI-ISRAEL NARRATIVE
. . . AND HOW FLAME FIGHTS BACK

UN BLOOD LIBEL: NBC, NPR, Reuters and the Guardian repeat the UN lie: “Israel has been intentionally starving the Palestinian people in Gaza,” according to unnamed “UN experts.”

FLAME EXPOSES: I hope you read FLAME’s exposè, which proves how Israel supervises tons of food shipped to Gaza, that “starvation” is overstated, and that yet again the culprit is the terrorists: “Hamas steals food aid from its citizens, yet the media blame shortages on Israel.” This message reached tens of thousands of Americans.

FAKE GAZA DEATH TOLLS: Every day mainstream media outlets have parroted death statistics from Hamas’s notoriously discredited “Gaza Health Authority” without mentioning new revelations that 70% of all deaths have been men of fighting age—NOT a majority of women and children as media have reported for more than a year!

FLAME PUSHES BACK: To see how media hide Hamas’s criminal acts in the Gaza war—from death counts to hiding in hospitals . . . check FLAME’s Hotline article on “Media ignore Hamas criminality—instead promote anti-Israel narrative.” Again, we delivered this truth to tens of thousands of Americans nationwide on Facebook.

“FREE PALESTINE” SCAM: Palestinians in Gaza are some of the most oppressed people on earth—denied by Hamas of all civil rights and victims of a devastating war——but neither the media nor Palestinian supporters in Congress or on campus ever explain how keeping Hamas in power would help Gazans, let alone the missing hostages or Israel. In fact, it would be a disaster.

FLAME REFUTES: Truth is, only Israel’s total defeat of Hamas will help free the Palestinians. To get the facts, I urge you to review our hard-hitting, nationally distributed article, “Free Palestine—from oppression, from poverty, from prison . . . from Hamas.”

Let’s be honest: If we believe in “Never Again”—we must win the Information War . . . we must recommit to defending the Jewish state . . . and the truth.

It means we can’t give up, even for a day—we won’t stop until we defeat the pro-Hamas haters. We must raise our fists and our voices against the rising tide of antisemitic, anti-Israel slander.

HELP FLAME PUBLISH THE TRUTH
IN MAINSTREAM, SOCIAL AND COLLEGE MEDIA

Unfortunately, since October 7, the falsehoods against Israel have been piling up quickly. Almost as fast as we can refute them, our enemies invent new lies, each more vicious than the last.

It’s the reason FLAME created another outspoken editorial ad called “Israel’s Enemies Tell Five Big Lies.”

MAINSTREAM MEDIA: We ran this ad in the New York Post, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, and Chicago Tribune.

SOCIAL MEDIA: FLAME’s robust Facebook campaigns calls us to reach millions of Americans. Already we’re delivering this message—“Israel’s Enemies Tell Five Big Lies”—to social media influencers of all ages.

COLLEGE MEDIA: Our latest messages debunking the greatest lies about Israel is scheduled to begin reaching tens of thousands of college students via digital ads in college newspapers nationwide in early Spring, as soon as school is back in session.

FLAME recently published this hard-hitting message in the Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, New York Post, Chicago Tribune, Tampa Bay Times, Denver Post and Mercury News.

WHAT CAN YOU DO TO SUPPORT ISRAEL TODAY?
STEP FORWARD: START OR AND RENEW YOUR MEMBERSHIP

How do we decide that now is the time to act? What does it take?

A friend recently sent me this quote from Albert Einstein:

“The world is a dangerous place, not because of those who do evil, but because of those who look on and do nothing.”

If ever in our lives we were called on to defend the Jewish people . . . and the State of Israel—the world’s only refuge for Jews—surely now is that time.

Let’s not forget the pledge that good people made after Holocaust: Jews and gentiles alike took an oath, declaring, “Never again.” We won’t let it happen.

So many people say they love and support Israel, but they simply don’t know how to get involved. They don’t have time or they don’t have thousands of dollars to give.

I understand completely, but consider: You don’t have to donate hours of time, and you don’t have to donate $500 or $100. You don’t even have to donate $50 or $25.

You see, FLAME is supported by tens of thousands of members. One by one: We have strength in numbers. More than 30,000 donors—people just like you, many who make very modest donations, many on fixed incomes—help ensure our good work.

Won’t you please step forward today as someone who cares for Israel from the heart . . . someone who recognizes Israel’s importance to the United States and the Jewish people?

P.S.1: Please consider remembering FLAME’s good work in your will. Your generosity allows us to sustain and expand our voice in more mainstream media, and it secures our ability to support Israel for many decades to come.

P.S.2: Remember: You are part of Israel’s miracle—what you do this every minute matters: Please make your FLAME tax-deductible membership donation right now—before July 31.

P.S.3 I’m sure you’d agree: If your enemy says they want to kill you and take your land, you’d be smart to believe them. If you try to make peace, but they refuse all your offers and continue to make murderous threats, it’s time to eliminate this enemy. Israel has faced exactly this danger with the Palestinians—yet continued to hope for peace . . . until Hamas’s October 7 massacre and kidnappings. Finally, Israel and many lovers of Israel are facing reality. They’ve concluded their futile dreams of peace must end. They must finally defeat their Palestinian enemies—starting with Hamas and other jihadi terrorists. I hope you’ll agree that we supporters of the Israel-U.S. relationship need to speak out. FLAME’s new hasbarah—explanatory message—“End of the Palestinian Lie”—describes how Israel and the West have for 77 years bought the myth that the Palestinians want peace. (See it below.) This editorial ad details the many offers of land for peace Israel, the U.N. and the U.S. have made to give Palestinians their own state—all refused. Finally, it explains why Israel must adopt a bold new strategy—disarming, disabling and defeating Hamas and all other terror groups that attack Israeli civilians. Please review this convincing, fact-based editorial, which FLAME intends to publish to millions—in leading social media, as well as in the Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, New York Post, Chicago Tribune, Tampa Bay Times, Denver Post and Los Angeles Times. This piece will also be sent to all members of Congress, the President and Vice President. If you agree that this kind of public relations effort on Israel’s behalf is critical, I urge you to support us with a donation.
