Jerusalem Post reporter Anna Ahronheim rides along with the IDF troops on raids of Palestinian homes in the West Bank. These raids are nightly occurrences that begin after midnight.
A similar script is followed over and over again as Israeli security forces, including the IDF, the Israel Police and Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency), carry out near nightly raids in the West Bank in an attempt to arrest Palestinians suspected of violence against Israelis.

This Democrat-manufactured crisis has consumed Congress. But no one is more pleased than Vladimir Putin.
Intentional or not, Democrats are literally following the Russian president’s playbook. His goal, now and before the 2016 election, has been to pit Americans against one another and erode confidence in our democratic process. The world, which should focus on Mr. Putin’s illegitimate annexation of Crimea and continuing aggression elsewhere in Ukraine, instead is fixated on this partisan domestic theater.
