Senior Palestinian Islamic Jihad commander killed in IAF airstrike Monday afternoon

Senior Palestinian Islamic Jihad commander Hasam Abu Harbid was killed in an Israeli airstrike in the northern Gaza Strip Monday afternoon as rockets fired from the blockaded enclave continued to be fired towards southern Israel communities.

The IDF said that Abu-Harbid, who was killed in a joint operation with the Shin Bet intelligence services, commanded over the northern Gaza Strip division of the terror organization since 2019 when his predecessor Baha abu el-Atta was killed in a targeted assassination by the IDF.

Hamas’ rocket attacks have little to do with Israel – it’s a political campaign for control over Palestinian Territories

You might be forgiven for thinking that rockets launched on Israel from Gaza and Jewish state retaliating against Hamas is just business as usual in the country. Another chapter in the hopeless Palestinian struggle for statehood.

The reality is a bit more complex.

You see, everybody knows that Hamas can’t really hurt Israel and that any form of armed struggle by the Palestinians is destined to fail. There is simply no way for them not only to defeat the Israeli army but to even make a dent in the territories it controls or to force Israel to make any concessions. Iron Dome intercepts most rockets and those which do make it over kill maybe a handful of individuals. In fact, more people died in Gaza due to Hamas rockets falling short of their targets, than in Israel.

Violence, however, does have its uses.

A former AP correspondent explains how and why reporters get Israel so wrong, and why it matters

A former AP correspondent explains how and why reporters get Israel so wrong, and why it matters

“The lasting importance of this summer’s war, I believe, doesn’t lie in the war itself. It lies instead in the way the war has been described and responded to abroad, and the way this has laid bare the resurgence of an old, twisted pattern of thought and its migration from the margins to the mainstream of Western discourse—namely, a hostile obsession with Jews. The key to understanding this resurgence is not to be found among jihadi webmasters, basement conspiracy theorists, or radical activists. It is instead to be found first among the educated and respectable people who populate the international news industry; decent people, many of them, and some of them my former colleagues.”

Rocket sirens continue to blare throughout night in Ashkelon, Beersheba

Rocket sirens continued to blare throughout the night in Ashkelon and Beersheba, with two separate barrages being aimed at each city, as Gaza terror groups continue their assault on Israel late into the night.

Hamas rocket barrages on southern Israel continued Sunday with almost 300 projectiles launched at Israel since Saturday, 120 on Saturday night alone.

MALCOLM: Trudeau needs to muster the courage to condemn Hamas

“This note is being written in the midst of a significant missile attack from Gaza so please forgive my brevity. I am trying to get this out before I have to run to another location.”

That was an email I received from a colleague earlier this week who is working in Israel. That country has fallen into a civil war against the terrorist insurgency group Hamas.

Trumpets and Tank Engines: A Turning Point in Gaza?

During an operation in Gaza last week, the Israel Defence Forces attacked a Hamas tunnel complex with 12 squadrons of 160 combat planes striking over 150 targets with hundreds of bunker-busting JDAMs [Joint Direct Attack Munitions] in less than an hour. Although the battle damage assessment is still underway, the raid destroyed perhaps the most critical element of Hamas infrastructure, wiping out vast stocks of munitions and likely killing dozens if not hundreds of fighters. This was a hammer blow to Hamas and may prove to be a turning point in the conflict. It also sent a powerful message to Iran and Hizballah, foretelling the consequences of an assault on Israel with their arsenal of tens of thousands of missiles in southern Lebanon.

Canadian “Journalists” Sign Anti-Israel Open Letter

HonestReporting Canada is alarmed to see Canadian journalists sign a partisan and one-sided anti-Israel open letter lobbying Canadian news organizations on how to cover the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

The May 14 letter entitled: “An open letter to Canadian newsrooms on covering Israel-Palestine” features the names of 1,539 people as of this writing, most who are activists and academics, but several who are from reputable news organizations like the CBC, Toronto Star, Globe and Mail, CTV News, Macleans, Yahoo News Canada, Chatelaine, Global News, IPolitics, etc.

Importantly, the authors of this letter are unknown, but the letter itself is blatantly tendentious, hypocritical and skewed, and its selective use of facts reflect poorly on those who purport to be professional journalists.

Cop bitten, older man beaten with stick during series of protests in downtown Toronto: police

Three people were charged after incidents at Saturday protests in Toronto concerning the provincial lockdown and the Israel-Palestine conflict, including a man accused of biting a police officer and another incident where a man was allegedly struck in the head with a wooden stick.

The first charge was laid during an anti-COVID-19 lockdown march that began at Queen’s Park on Saturday afternoon and snaked its way through many downtown streets.

Biting a cop? Now that’s rabid! As for the assault I am betting they will look for a way to blame the JDL.

Meanwhile in Jolly Old England…

Multiple protests for the ‘liberation of Palestine’ in Montreal, Toronto and Winnipeg

Hundreds of people in Montreal waved Palestinian flags, drove through the streets and gathered in front of Israel’s consul general in Westmount in support of Palestine in wake of the growing violence between Israel and Hamas.

Pro-Israeli, pro-Palestinian supporters clash near Manitoba Legislature

Separated by a line of around 50 Winnipeg Police Service officers, approximately 50 Israel supporters and 300 Palestine supporters volleyed death threats, insults and bottles of water.

Then of course there’s Toronto… Diversity is our Strength!

Se Above vids – from the CBC – “Among the myriad of Palestinian flags were dozens of Israeli flags flown by counter-demonstrators in the square. Police appeared to set up a barrier to separate opposing protesters. As of Saturday night, police had no information about any arrests made in connection with the rally.”

From the Star – A pro-Israel group of around 100 people were also protesting at the scene, with police setting up barricades to separate opposing protesters. Toronto police say there are no reports of violence at this time, and no arrests or charges have been made.

Israel showed US ‘smoking gun’ on Hamas in AP office tower, officials say

Hamas and AP Office Tower

Israel shared intelligence with the US showing how Hamas operated inside the same building with the Associated Press and Al-Jazeera in Gaza, officials in Jerusalem said on Sunday.

Officials in more than one government office confirmed that US President Joe Biden’s phone call to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Saturday was, in part, about the bombing of the building, and that Israel showed Biden and American officials the intelligence behind the action.

Air strike targets Hamas leader

The Israeli military says it has bombed the home of the political leader of the Palestinian militant group Hamas in a wave of air strikes on the Gaza Strip.

It released video of an exploding bomb which it said had hit the home of Yahya Sinwar, the group’s overall leader in the territory.

Israeli air strikes in Gaza killed at least 33 people early on Sunday, officials there said.

Militants fired rockets at Israel, with a new barrage on Sunday afternoon.

Some Latin American countries endorse Hamas’ violence against Israel. It’s shameful

While the Biden administration and several Latin American countries have rightly supported Israel’s right to defend itself from the more than 2,000 Hamas rockets launched against Israel’s civilian population, the reaction by other countries in the region has been pathetic.

The governments of Cuba, Venezuela, Argentina and St. Vincent — a small country, but one that occupies a seat on the U.N. Security Council — as well as Bolivia’s behind-the-scenes ruler Evo Morales have tacitly or explicitly supported the Iran-backed Hamas terrorist group.

There is a good reason why the United States and the 27-member European Union officially consider Hamas a terrorist group: It deliberately uses violence against civilians to achieve its goals.

The Hamas Rocket Attacks Are Based on a Lie

Israel is on the brink of war with the terrorist group Hamas, which controls the Gaza Strip. This past week, Hamas launched more than 1,600 rockets into Israel — most of which got intercepted by Israel’s Iron Dome — after a violent confrontation between Israeli police and Palestinian rioters at the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound, the Temple Mount, near the third-holiest site in Islam. The rioters had protested the eviction of Palestinians who have not paid rent for living on land allegedly owned by Israelis. The riot broke out just before Israel’s Supreme Court could decide the issue.
