Just as NVidia doubles down on Israel (and the Yokneam area in particular), Boston Scientific has decided to move the Galil Medical activity that it acquired to Ireland.
On Friday, NVidia announced a technological breakthrough by their Yokneam R&D center that will allow data centers in geographically distant locations to operate as if they were in one place, effectively creating “AI factories” on a massive scale and significantly increasing the maximum computing power available to the industry.

Sexual abuse and rape as tools of war are as old as time. During the Rwandan genocide of 1994, over the course of 100 days, up to half a million women and children were raped, sexually mutilated, or murdered. In this issue we focus on the personal revelations that the hostages have begun making public this week. We then bring your attention to a news story, two weeks before the October 7 massacre, Israel’s Foreign Ministry and National Security Council received information from Egypt warning that the situation in Gaza was “explosive.” We also discuss the concessions on issues where Israeli interests conflict with those of the Trump administration that we fear Netanyahu may give President Trump as “Christmas gifts”.
Finally our “Profile in Power” is about Lali Deri, who ever since Jan. 12 of last year has been an important face of the opposition to the current government from within its own electoral base. Lali is an Israeli bereaved mother and emerging civic leader who has come to public attention through her passionate advocacy for shared national responsibility in the defense of Israel.
Thanks to a comment from one of our readers during the first weeks when we began publishing this newsletter, we decided that we would not ask our readers for money. This week, however, we focus on tax-deductible donations from an angle that you might not hear about elsewhere. For those of you who pay taxes in the U.S. or U.K. (including Israelis with dual citizenship), this is well worth reading today - before the end of the year. This year, even U.S. citizens who take the Standard Deduction can actually take a separate tax deduction for up to $1,000 USD that was not available in the past. Dual citizens can also get a tax deduction in Israel for donations to good causes that the current Israeli government won't give tax deductible status to.
This week's Portrait in Power is Eli Sharabi whose voice has become one of the most morally resonant in the aftermath of October 7, 2023. Sharabi was abducted by Hamas and held hostage, while his wife Lianne and daughters Noiya and Yahel were murdered in their home. Eli's brother Yossi was also taken hostage and later killed in captivity. Since his return, Sharabi has become one of the most powerful civic voices calling for national accountability, the return of all hostages, and a moral reckoning with the failures that led to October 7.
Finally we end this week's newsletter with a little about the last remaining hostage, Ran Gvili, who we want all of you to think about this week.
As if we needed a reminder that antisemitism is rampant in nearly all parts of the globe today, yesterday’s murderous terror attack in Bondi Beach, Australia, was gut-punching reminder. Fueled by the “globalize the Intifada” movement and, likely, funded by Iran, two men opened fire on the annual Hannukah celebration in the Australian beach town, killing 15 people and injuring another 27. This week we discuss the attack and how the Bondi Beach Massacre did not occur in a vacuum.
This week's Portrait in Power is Eyal Eshel who is an Israeli entrepreneur, farmer, and civic organizer who became one of the most visible civilian leaders in the wake of October 7, 2023. His leadership took on profound personal meaning after his daughter, Roni Eshel, a soldier stationed at the Nahal Oz base, was murdered during the Hamas attack.

The location of the new campus will be just over the Yokneam municipal lines in Kiryat Tivon.
