Our German Friends

Amidst all the doom and gloom, we sometimes forget that Israel has a lot more friends than we might think. So when Fokus Jerusalem asked if they could visit our office and profile HonestReporting, I was slightly skeptical, having never heard of this German outlet.

But the pro-Israel Christians from Germany couldn’t have been any nicer, and it was a real pleasure to host them a few months ago.

Thanks to YouTube, you can select English auto-dubbing from the original German even if it is a bit odd watching me being “re-dubbed.”
