It depends, you see, on what the enemies of Israel, the people who want Hamas to win the war by managing to remain, battered but still standing after the IDF pulls out of Gaza, think is most harmful to Israel’s case. If Israel “occupies Gaza,” then it has both the right and the duty to […]
Witkoff proposes IDF withdrawal in exchange for 18 dead hostages and 10 living ones
Once again, this would be rewarding hostage-taking and prolonging the war by keeping Hamas alive. Witkoff clearly doesn’t have a clue about what he’s dealing with, but has Trump’s total confidence, and so the clown show will continue. “New deal on the table: Witkoff proposal includes minor IDF withdrawal, new aid distibution” [sic], by Amichai […]
Hamas Warns Gaza Muslims Not to Accept US Food
There’s no famine. Gaza is starving. Over the course of the last year, they’ve only had two days of food left for a year.

Feeding the people of Gaza,” by Brendan O’Neill, Spiked, May 27, 2025: What’s really bugging the anti-Israeli elites is that this uppity little state has the temerity to circumvent the […]
Israel, Now Guilty of Feeding the People of Gaza
After Israel instituted its blockade of humanitarian aid to Gaza on March 2, it was roundly condemned by a world that had forgotten about, or never understood, Article 23 of the Fourth Geneva Convention, which gives a state at war the right to withhold even humanitarian aid to civilians of an enemy state if that […]
Hamas executes four men for looting aid trucks entering Gaza
In April, Israel offered to make sure aid got to Gazans, but guess what happened? Hamas rejected the offer. It fits the Hamas narrative (and that of its supporters) to present Israel as monstrous when it is Hamas that is to blame for every bit of the suffering of Gazans. Hamas has been stealing aid […]

UN ‘humanitarian chief’ lies, claims 14,000 babies in Gaza will die within the next 48 hours unless they get aid
Why has world opinion turned so markedly against Israel? Because people at high levels are willing to lie in this way. “UN retracts aid chief’s claim that 14,000 Gazan babies will die in 48 hours without aid,” by Mathilda Heller, Jerusalem Post, May 21, 2025: United Nations humanitarian chief Tom Fletcher told the BBC that […]
