Everyone else: Yeah, sure. According to the Qataris, Hamas has agreed in principle to a temporary cessation in fighting to exchange all of the remaining hostages on a 1:3 ratio of Palestinian prisoners. Despite explicitly and publicly rejecting this formula just days ago, supposedly the Hamas negotiators today offered their “initial approval.” Not even the Palestinians […]
Perhaps Hamas has not received the memo. Using hospitals as cover and human-shield strategies while plotting terrorist attacks no longer works, at least according to the IDF and Shin Bet. Acting on intelligence that Hamas’ leadership abroad had coordinated weapons distribution from a cell embedded in a Jenin hospital, the IDF conducted a raid and […]
In the war launched by Hamas and Gazans against Israel on October 7, only one side has publicly and repeatedly promised genocidal extinction to the other. The International Court of Justice has, predictably, decided that the target of that genocidal ambition has to answer for its self-defense. Weirdly, though, the ICJ decided to creep up […]
This may be a first signal that the Gazans have had enough of Hamas — and that Hamas can’t hide it with threats any longer. A crowd of mostly Palestinian women and children protested outside the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in central Gaza, in a town roughly halfway between Gaza City and the embattled Khan Younis. […]
In the wake of the October 7 massacres, the famously fractious Israelis muscled up their national unity and put aside deep political rivalries to form a war government. That arrangement couldn’t last forever, but it may not even last four months, according to news from Israeli media. And the dissolution might be caused by Benjamin […]
No one in their right mind or with an IQ above tapioca could be thinking about handing the Palestinians statehood after October 7th, regardless of whether they’re Israelis. Those exemptions certainly cover Joe Biden and Antony Blinken, who continue to press the issue with Israel and demand a commitment to a “two-state solution” while one […]
One of the constant refrains we hear from the anti-Israel crowd demanding a ceasefire involves the need for Israel to “tone down” the war and curb the loss of life of the “innocent civilians” who Hamas claims have been killed by the IDF in the tens of thousands. First of all, the Gaza Health Ministry, […]
Before Israel even entered Gaza there were estimates that there might be 250 to 300 miles of tunnels beneath the strip of land that is only 25 miles long. That seemed pretty extraordinary but it turns out it may have been an underestimate. The NY Times published an update today on Israel’s efforts to find and destroy the […]
I was dreading the day that this might happen, but I suppose it was probably inevitable. After holding the line for 100 days, it appears that Joe Biden has succumbed to pressure from within his own party and started to walk away from our stalwart ally Israel. The statement from the White House yesterday wasn’t […]
The thousands of people screaming about peace and ceasefires outside of the White House yesterday certainly weren’t acting as if peace was important. In fact, as Fox News reported, many of them were becoming overtly violent. The speeches and chants gave way to attempts to break down the security fencing that had been erected to […]
