“Oct 7 2023”

The Trump administration and international partners are discussing proposals to build a “Riviera of the Middle East” on the rubble of Gaza. One would establish U.S. control and pay Palestinians to leave.

A postwar plan for Gaza circulating within the Trump administration, modeled on President Donald Trump’s vow to “take over” the enclave, would turn it into a trusteeship administered by the United States for at least 10 years while it is transformed into a gleaming tourism resort and high-tech manufacturing and technology hub.

The 38-page prospectus seen by The Washington Post envisions at least a temporary relocation of all of Gaza’s more than 2 million population, either through what it calls “voluntary” departures to another country or into restricted, secured zones inside the enclave during reconstruction.

Earlier this month, 19 former senior Israeli security officials — past heads of the Israel Defence Forces, directors of the spy agency Mossad, chiefs of Israel’s internal security agency Shin Bet and other senior brass — called on Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu to end the war in Gaza. Their arguments varied, but all agreed that what began as a just and necessary war nearly two years ago has devolved into a cynical exercise in keeping Netanyahu’s coalition in power.

The Pallies will never be happy with a two state solution. They love killing Jews.

Daniel Koren: Universities must confront campus members who support terrorist groups

As students head back to school this fall, most are expecting what universities promise: a marketplace of ideas, a chance to test their assumptions, and to engage with peers who see the world differently.

Increasingly, however, what they find is something else. Instead of open dialogue, campuses are being reshaped by professors who cross the line from scholarship into activism, and from activism into public support of terrorist groups.

The remains of two more Israeli hostages have been recovered, Israel said Friday — as it declared Gaza City a “dangerous combat zone.”

The body of Oct. 7 “hero” Ilan Weiss, 56, was found alongside the remains of another hostage who has yet to be identified, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said.

They were recovered during a joint military and Shin Bet security operation in the Gaza Strip 693 days after they were taken on Oct. 7, the IDF noted.

The UJA’s $1 million Gaza donation isn’t about the money. It’s a choice between pandering to Jews defined by their unease or standing with the untroubled few who will carry Jewish life forward.

On Aug. 8, the UJA-Federation of New York announced a donation of $1 million to help the people of Gaza. The funds, delivered via the Israeli humanitarian NGO IsraAID, would be used, a statement explained, “to provide food, medicine, and the installation of filtration systems to enable safe drinking water for displaced families.”

The decision sparked a controversy that grew into a maelstrom. Taking to social media, WhatsApp groups, and every other platform designed to gauge the temperature of public opinion, many, myself included, criticized the decision as incomprehensible and argued that to give even one shekel to an enemy at a time of war was not only colossally stupid but also morally depraved.

This is an interesting read offering insight into the sometimes Jewicidal politics of the diaspora.

As the US and other Western countries continue to rely on Qatar to broker a ceasefire-hostage deal to end the war in the Gaza Strip, senior Qatari journalists affiliated with the Qatar’s state-run media continue to praise the Iran-backed Palestinian terror group Hamas, and are even calling for Hamas to kidnap more Israelis.

Qatar, which has long been supporting Hamas and currently hosts its leaders in Doha, already uses its Al-Jazeera television empire as a mouthpiece for Hamas and other Islamist terror groups. Since the beginning of the Gaza war, triggered by the October 7, 2023 Hamas-led attack on Israel, Al-Jazeera — in Arabic — has been providing a platform to Hamas leaders to praise the massacre of Israelis.

Here we are, a few decades of “mea culpa” following the Holocaust-oh, this will never happen again – oops-it is. It isn’t the Nazis or the white supremacists this time, although they are participating: Candace Owens, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Tucker Carlson – it’s the Muslims. And unlike Germany with 40 million people, there are 2 billion Muslims. How the world cheers them on, including leaders from the West – Canada, France, Great Britain, Australia. The Palestinian Arab terrorist group Hamas has celebrated the Western countries for their decisions.

But there is one exception.

One leader, and he is hated by so many. That leader: Donald J Trump: President of the United States of America.
