Israel Has Sold Record Amount Of Debt In US Since Gaza War Erupted
Israel has sold a record amount of debt in the US since its Gaza war erupted on October 7, 2023, according to a report by Bloomberg on Friday.
The government of Israel’s US-based bond broker, Israel Bonds, says it has sold $5bn worth of debt in the last twenty months. The level of bond issuance is more than double that raised by Israel Bonds, in similar time periods previously.
Israel’s war on Gaza started after the October 7, 2023 Hamas-led attacks on southern Israel killed around 1,200 people. Israel responded by pummeling the Gaza Strip and invading it. A reported more than 54,000 people, mainly women and children, have been killed in the Israeli attacks, and the population is facing "imminent famine", the United Nations says.
Israel Bonds is affiliated with Israel’s finance ministry and sells bonds inside the US to both retail and institutional investors. The starting price for non-tradable retail Israeli bonds is as low as $36.
A five-year Israeli bond has a yield between 4.86 percent and 5.44 percent, according to the Bloomberg report.
Along with its war on Gaza, Israel fought a devastating war with Hezbollah in Lebanon and launched widespread strikes on Syria. In 2024, it engaged in two rounds of direct missile and drone attacks with Iran. Israel’s financing needs have soared as it looks to fund its military.
Local Israeli creditors, including deep-pocketed institutional ones, account for about 80 percent of the government’s lending overall. That leaves just twenty percent to come from international debt sales and what Israel Bonds sells in the US.
According to the group, local US governments at the state and county level are big buyers in places like New York, Texas, Ohio, and Illinois.
Palm Beach County in Florida became one of the world's largest investors in Israeli Bonds in 2024, with about $700m of its $4.67bn portfolio invested there.

Justice Department Files Statement of Interest in Oregon Elections Case Concerning States’ Obligations Under the National Voter Registration Act
The Justice Department announced today that it has filed a Statement of Interest in Judicial Watch v. Reed, No. 6:24-cv-1783 (D. Ore.) regarding the requirements under the National Voter Registration Act (NVRA) for states to maintain and make available for public inspection records concerning list maintenance to ensure the accuracy of the official list of eligible voters.
The lawsuit filed by Judicial Watch alleges that the State of Oregon failed to comply with the state’s obligations under the NVRA to conduct a list maintenance program and to make the records concerning list maintenance publicly available. Advancing President Donald J. Trump’s Executive Order to preserve and protect the integrity of American elections, the Attorney General of the United States, through the Civil Rights Division, enforces NVRA mandates.
“Accurate voter registration rolls are critical to ensure that elections in Oregon are conducted fairly, accurately, and without fraud,” said Assistant Attorney General Harmeet K. Dhillon of the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division. “States have specific obligations under the list maintenance provisions of the NVRA, and the Department of Justice will vigorously enforce those requirements.”
More information about voting and elections is available on the Justice Department’s website at www.justice.gov/voting. Complaints about possible violations of federal voting rights laws can be submitted through the Civil Rights Division’s website at civilrights.justice.gov or by telephone at 1-800-253-

Conservative Colombian Presidential Candidate Uribe Shot In The Head In Bogota Event
Conservative Colombian senator Miguel Uribe Turbay was shot in the head on Saturday in an apparent assassination attempt. There was no immediate confirmation from the authorities on the status of his condition.
The 39-year-old senator is a member of the opposition conservative Democratic Center party, founded by former Colombian President Alvaro Uribe. The two men are not related.
According to a party statement condemning the attack, the senator was hosting a campaign event in a public park in the Fontibon neighborhood in the capital on Saturday when "armed subjects shot him in the back."
The party described the attack as serious, but did not disclose further details on his health.

Riots Erupt At LA ICE Facility As Mexican BLM Clone Unleashes Color Revolution Operation
After failing to ignite multiple color revolution-style protests earlier this year targeting Elon Musk and President Trump over DOGE-related efforts, Democrats and their rogue NGO network appear to be at it again—this time staging a new protest movement against Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers in Los Angeles, hoping to spark another 'Summer of Love' nationwide riots like in 2020, when leftists used the useful idiots behind the Marxist group Black Lives Matter as a vehicle for chaos.
With BLM kicked to the curb by the Democratic Party, the Mexican version of BLM - Unión del Barrio - whose manifesto is filled with explicit Marxist and communist rhetoric—has become the next group Democrats will use as useful idiots.
On Friday, Unión del Barrio issued a call to action for the crazies on Facebook to stage a protest against "ICE Terrorists" in Downtown LA:
Emergency Protest TODAY in LA! 4:30PM
535 Alameda St LA, CA 90012
Join us to denounce ICE terrorizing our communities! Over 200 people are currently being held at this location in the basement of the courthouse. Today, there has been ICE activity all over the LA area.
LA EMERGENCY PROTEST!
535 Alameda St, LA, CA 90012
Friday, June 6, 2025 4:30PM
STOP DEPORTATIONS NOW!
ICE has hundreds of members of our community kidnapped and is holding them at this location.
Facebook posts…
According to journalist Andy Ngo, multiple far-left groups, one being Antifa, amplified Unión del Barrio's "emergency protest" at the "basement of the courthouse."
A quick review of Unión del Barrio's political program is absolutely alarming - and basically the Mexican version of BLM…
Core Beliefs & Goals:
Opposition to U.S. imperialism, capitalism, and settler colonialism
Advocacy for immigrant rights, against deportations and ICE raids
Promotion of community organizing in working-class Latino neighborhoods
Support for socialist and pan-Latino unity movements
Education and youth empowerment through political study and activism
Action campaigns:
Organizes rallies and protests, particularly against ICE and border enforcement
Runs community education programs like Escuelita Aztlán
Collaborates with other radical left-wing organizations in the U.S. and Latin America
Frequently involved in May Day demonstrations, anti-police protests, and immigration activism
What's clear is that Unión del Barrio operates on a Marxist-Leninist and decolonial framework that wants to destroy the West and capitalism, or more importantly, destroy America. In other words, the org is just the Mexican version of BLM.
