Collective Action or Collective Suicide: Following the heat waves, the UN Secretary General says that if you don't act together, humanity will reach collective suicide. "No country is immune. We have a choice. Collective action or collective suicide. It's in our hands."

What is the purpose of all this stress? • True to Ourselves: Recently, Herzl's death memorial was celebrated (20th of Tammuz). Herzl said at the time: "We don't want to be cosmopolitan, devoid of identity, but on the contrary, we want to stand up for our nationalism..." If we did a survey in today's Israel about what our national foundation is based upon, we will get a 1,001 different and opposing opinions. In your opinion, what is the basis of our national foundation? • Leanne's Letter: Leanne, a student at an elementary school, wrote a letter to the school's security guard: "To Tzvika the guard, thank you for guarding us, for the whole school, thank you every morning that you greet me with a smile, and ask how I am, and hope I slept well. You are the best guard in the world! Wishing you always goodness!” How does such a guard feel when he receives such appreciation? • The Riddle of East Jerusalem: In recent years, there has been a significant increase in the number of young people in East Jerusalem who choose to study the Israeli curriculum, to such an extent that it is not possible to accommodate all those who enroll. One of the students explains: "Hebrew is my future. I am proud of myself that I speak Hebrew well." Another student says: "We need to live together." • Charity Instead of Ferraris: Sadio Mane, a star soccer player from the Liverpool team, earns millions of pounds a year. He was photographed walking around with a broken mobile phone screen. When asked why you are so stingy, he said: ''Why would I want Ferrari cars, diamond watches and jet planes? What will it give the world? I was hungry for bread... now I can help people. I prefer to build schools and give clothes and food to people who are in need.''

Dictating and Firing: Palestinian Islamic Jihad waited for the end of Biden's visit to Israel, and a few hours after he left here and flew to Saudi Arabia, they fired four rockets in the direction of Ashkelon and the Lachish region. In response, the IDF bombed Gaza. It seems that they are trying and succeeding in imposing an agenda on us.

A story ran on Twitter under the headline: "A beautiful story about charitable giving and hire": A few years ago, neighbors of my family gave their apartment on Friday and Saturday to an elderly man who was staying with his brother in the area, and had nowhere to sleep. During a Sabbath he was in the stairwell, because of the darkness the old man fell down the stairs, and died.

My husband and I have had a good married life all these years, but in recent months his attitude toward me has changed greatly and a month ago he just got up and left home without explaining why and I feel like my whole world is ruined. And I want to ask you how does a man do such a thing? To leave me and his children like that? We have three children… What can I do to get him home?

The cost of living in Israel is rising. Things haven’t been this way for a long time. Essential products will become more expensive, even by 36%. You know, basic bread is going to be 36% more expensive, dairy products, eggs, water, etc. My question is, it’s not supposed to be that way, these are basic products, the government needs to put it in all of its money, do what it can in order not to raise prices on these basic products. • Biden and Lapid signed an agreement on some scientific operation, medical cooperation, etc. but the main things are that both countries will not allow a nuclear Iran. That they will fight together against any attempts to boycott Israel and attempts to deprive Israel the right for self-defense. How valuable are such declarations? In what case will a declaration work? • Nature Versus Nature Nature is harmonious, we studied this at school, we see how everything is connected, the food chains, there is this science based on bionics, that I look at everything and I copy what I see in Nature. Suppose a helicopter, I don't know, say they saw a dragon-fly, birds, planes, bugs, cars. Why, one way or another, it comes down to planes turn into fighter jets, cars turn into tanks, and all of our scientific achievements are headed towards that? We take something positive from Nature, we build what we build and one way or another it is taken by corrupted people and turn it into weapons of mass destruction. • How to relate to the two-state solution? Belgium, Sweden, Ireland, The Netherlands, Denmark, France, Germany and Italy, issued a joint statement resuming cooperation with the six organizations which were declared terrorist organizations by the Israeli Defense Minister.

How to relate to the two-state solution? • Scientists from Harvard have developed an AI that finds the shortest path to human happiness: They use a combination of neural networks in the brain, the results of psychological tests that the clients pass and AI predicts the well-being of a person in ten years and what will happen in old age and it gives recommendations on how to live in order to be happy.

But lately there is a feeling that the rich uncle has weakened a bit. • After a 3-year break, the world's largest particle accelerator in Switzerland is returning to activity at a higher intensity. The researchers hope that the reactivation and upgrade will allow for new discoveries in science, and explain the processes that took place in the formation of the universe. • Loss of Inner Faith: Saleh al-Aruri, one of the leaders of Hamas, said that Hamas was confident that the occupation would leave Palestine, and that all the institutions built by the Jewish people everywhere would collapse. He added that Israel's biggest weakness is the loss of internal faith in its ability to continue to survive. • Why You Should Suffer: Paul Bloom, an American professor of psychology, says that if you want to live a meaningful life, you have to choose a life that has suffering, to some degree.

It is precisely from experiences of failure, of difficulty and of suffering that we can appreciate success and experience moments of satisfaction and joy. • China on the moon The head of NASA says: "We should be very concerned that China will land on the moon and say 'this is ours and you will have to get away from here'."

Maybe we should change the anthem, or at least some lyrics?

Iran is holding everyone under constant threat, what are we supposed to do? The Iranian foreign ministry warned that it will not allow Israel’s defense alliance with the Arab countries. Indeed, today Israel, the U.S., Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, are creating a regional air defense system to protect against Iranian missiles. Iran says, things are only going to get worse for all of you. We are increasing the rate of uranium enrichment. In short, Iran is holding everyone byt that one place all the time, black mailing everyone, and what interests me mainly is us, what are we supposed to do? • In Israel, a lot of police officers resigned. Being a police officer used to be respectable, today, no more. They are given more and more tasks, responsibilities and the salary is very, very low, lower than average. A novice officer gets something like 6,700 shekels. They are increasingly accused of abusive authority and even put on trial when a border police fighter who neutralizes a terrorist is forced to testify as a suspect, of course he thinks its better to find another job. That is, the police do not feel support from the state. So what should our actions be in relation to those that protect us? • The consequences of a nuclear war are already being realistically considered. They calmly draw as a result of a nuclear detonation, silted smoke will be emitted into the upper atmosphere, this will prevent the suns rays from reaching the earth in the first month, after which the earths temperatures will drop by 13 degrees. In the first hours of the war about 100 million will die, a sharp drop in temperatures will destroy the agricultural economy, approximately 1 -2 billion people will starve to death. Ocean temperatures will plummet, algae will die. In short, people live their life, travel, think about the future calmly, does it bother anyone? Even though it is becoming very realistic, what can you do? How to continue existence? • Scientists from King's College in London and New York University have proposed changing the rules of chess.
