The negative and often fake news propagated by the international media about Israel on a daily basis is contributing to the torrent of toxic hate affecting Jews worldwide.

A refusal to publicize anything that might cast Israel in a positive light has become the standard policy of a media subverted by and submissive to those peddling age old conspiracies.

I wonder if this following item ever saw the light of day in mainstream media outlets.

Israel’s National Mathematics Team has achieved its best result ever since the country began participating in the International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO) in 1979.

All six team members won medals at the prestigious global competition, held this year in Australia, including 4 gold medals, 1 silver, and 1 bronze – earning Israel 6th place out of 110 countries worldwide.

This marks an historic milestone for Israel’s mathematics team at the 66th IMO, founded in 1959. The Israeli team competed against 639 students, achieving unprecedented success.

Education Minister Yoav Kisch said: “Within one week, Israel’s students reminded the world – and ourselves – what’s possible when an education system believes in excellence and nurtures it consistently. Following the impressive victory in chemistry, the mathematics team set a new benchmark with four gold medals and a record-breaking ranking – an achievement unmatched since Israel began participating in the Olympiad.”

Prof. Alon Chen, President of the Weizmann Institute of Science, commented: “The team’s accomplishment at the IMO is truly outstanding. It is a testament to the talent, hard work, and learning spirit of our youth, and to the tremendous potential they hold.”

“At the Weizmann Institute, we are proud to lead the team through their scientific training and view the nurturing of tomorrow’s scientific leadership as both a privilege and a mission. In a world where scientific and technological innovation is a key pillar of national resilience, achievements like this go far beyond medals – they are milestones pointing to a future where Israel continues to lead, innovate, and shape the global stage.” 

ANOTHER INNOVATION 

Despite terror and international condemnations Israel’s researchers and scientists work tirelessly to benefit humanity.

CHAREDI SUPPORT FOR IDF SERVICE

 Watch this most interesting video which explains the support offered to young Charedi men who decide to enlist and serve.

It offers a glimpse at what is happening behind the scenes in a society hitherto monolithically opposed to enlisting.
