 Netanyahu reveals Israel’s ‘secret’ in Iran war Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday shared what he described as the “secret” behind Israel’s actions and superiority in the war with Iran. In a statement by his office, the PM insists the regime in Iran is weaker than ever. “What is the secret? Faith and power. We have both in abundance,” he said. Netanyahu’s comment followed the rescue of an American crew member, who had gone missing after Iran shot down an F-15E Strike Eagle fighter jet over a remote mountainous region.

Inspirational Photography Quotes Part of the role of photography is to exaggerate, and that is an aspect that I have to puncture. I do that by showing the world as I really find it.” – Martin Parr There is one thing the photograph must contain, the humanity of the moment.
