I've just landed in Israel for one of the most important assignments of my career — and it's already off to a bit of a rough start.

It's not going to stop me.

But if you want to support my journalism, I could really use some help right now.

Please click here to make a donation now.

You see, for the next week, my colleague Rukshan Fernando — here for his very first time — and I will travel across Israel to show you the real story as it unfolds on the ground.

We'll visit Arab villages, speak with Israelis and Palestinians in the West Bank, cover protests against government policy, challenge leaders inside the Knesset, and, if possible, even get into Gaza itself.

We’re also planning live, unfiltered streams where we’ll talk to everyday people, cover protests as they happen, and take you on a tour of Jerusalem you’ve never seen before.

This mission is called IsraelUncut.com (Because you deserve raw, unfiltered reporting that cuts through the propaganda on all sides.)

And when you go to that website, if you're a RebelNews+ member, you can also send us questions you'd like us to ask in the comments section on the page — whether to people in Arab villages, protesters, or Israeli lawmakers.

Click here to donate, and remember, RebelNews+ members can send in questions for me to ask too.

I'll personally read every question you put in the comments. If there's something you've always wanted to ask — now's your chance to have it answered on camera.

We're keeping costs low. I was already in the U.K. covering the Tommy Robinson rally, so instead of flying home and back again, we came straight here.

But we've already hit a snag: my luggage never arrived. That means extra costs to replace essentials, including clothes for today's Knesset meetings. (I've managed to find someone to lend me some camera gear, and I'll file a complaint with the airline too, but I'm not optimistic about having my funds reimbursed.)

So please chip in if you can, and follow our reports throughout the week at IsraelUncut.com.
