Here is a clear example of how Hamas uses civilians as human shields. If Israel had bombed this tunnel and damaged the school, Hamas would have claimed that the IDF was bombing indiscriminately and endangering schoolchildren, when it was actually Hamas itself, with the possible collusion of the UN, that put the children in harm’s […]
Nicholas Kristof of the New York Times, Middle East Expert and Moral Arbiter
Just after the ceasefire in Gaza was declared, Nicholas Kristof, a New York Times columnist, who rivals his colleague Tom Friedman for the title of World’s Greatest Authority, wrote an article blasting Israel for committing “war crimes” in its recent conflict with Hamas. Now the rebarbative Kristof has just written another piece on the […]
Hamas: Give Us The Money From Qatar Or Else…
As is well known, the just-retired head of Mossad, Yossi Cohen, made several visits in the past to urge Qatar to send money to Hamas in order to keep the Gazan economy from cratering. He was persuasive; Qatar sent the money, via Israel, in monthly installments to Hamas which, after its leaders skimmed some […]
Palestinians Ban UNRWA’s Gaza Director From Gaza for Noting That Israel Didn’t Hit Civilians
Matthias Schmale is –- or possibly was, as his fate is still unclear — the director of UNRWA in Gaza, who has now been banned from Gaza by the Palestinians themselves. He did something unthinkable, you see: he dared to recognize that Israeli airstrikes during the recent conflict with Hamas were “precise.” This admission, […]
Rep. Jamie Raskin Demands Republicans Stop Blocking Money for Hamas
Rep. Jamie Raskin (D – Weasel) dispatched a letter to Senator Jim Risch (R – Idaho) demanding that he unblock money for Hamas. In a letter co-signed by notable Democrat patriots and lovers of the Jewish State like Rep. Ilhan Omar, Rep. Rashida Tlaib, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, Rep. Mark Pocan, and Rep. Jerrold Nadler, Raskin […]
Qatar’s former Health Minister: ‘Gaza leads the way in jihad and in courage’
It’s a jihad, he says. No one listens or understands the implications of his statement. The single most important aspect of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is the one that is most often ignored: the role of Islamic doctrine in inciting hatred of Israel. Get the details in The Palestinian Delusion. “Former Qatari Health Minister In Ode To […]
What guarantee do we have that once taxpayer-funded reconstruction is complete, anything will be different in Gaza?
On May 22, Secretary of State Antony Blinken appeared on ABC’s “This Week,” where he reiterated the Administration’s intention to continue to provide the Jewish state with the military wherewithal to defend itself. This was clearly meant as a slapdown to Senator Bernie Sanders and other anti-Israel Democrats, including the ever-present Squad, who are […]
Palestinians In Gaza Rain On Hamas’ Victory Parade
The Palestinians in Gaza are held in thrall by their Hamas rulers. They cannot vote them out: there have been no elections in fifteen years. They cannot rise in revolt: political dissidents are swiftly arrested, imprisoned, and in some cases, killed by Hamas goons. They cannot prevent Hamas from putting its weapons in the […]
Israel and the Duping of Hamas
Professor Hillel Frisch has an interesting theory about why Israel waited so long to attack the network of tunnels that Hamas built in Gaza. His take on the “strategic genius” behind this deliberate delay is here: “The Strategic Genius Behind Allowing Qatari Suitcases of Cash Into Gaza,” Algemeiner, May 28, 2021: Qatar’s head of state […]
Why does the United States owe the Palestinian Arabs any aid whatsoever?
Secretary of State Antony Blinken has been busy trying to drum up “international support” for Gaza. As we all know, in the latest round of fighting between Hamas and Israel, a great deal of damage was done to Hamas’ “infrastructure” – that is, to the places where the terror group hid its huge armory of […]
