Trump gives "last warning" to Hamassholes to release the hostages or there'll be "Hell to pay"

President Trump laid it out for Hamas to consider saying in a Truth Social post Wednesday that they had better release all hostages immediately or the proverbial dung will hit the fan for them. Now that this is his second warning, it seems like he hasn't given himself a second choice but to do what he says he'll do.

The warning came after he met with seven former hostages in Washington, D.C. this week. The group was comprised by Eli Sharabi, Doron Steinbrecher, Keith Siegel, Aviva Siegel, Naama Levy, Omer Shem Tov and Iair Horn, according to the Hostages and Missing Families Forum.

"‘Shalom Hamas’ means Hello and Goodbye - You can choose," the president's post began. "Release all of the Hostages now, not later, and immediately return all of the dead bodies of the people you murdered, or it is OVER for you.

"Only sick and twisted people keep bodies, and you are sick and twisted!"

FYI, 'shalom' also means peace, but that word isn't in the Hamas dictionary.

President Trump added that he is "sending Israel everything it needs to finish the job," and that "not a single Hamas member will be safe if you don’t do as I say.

"I have just met with your former Hostages whose lives you have destroyed," Trump added. "This is your last warning! For the leadership, now is the time to leave Gaza, while you still have a chance."

"Also, to the People of Gaza: A beautiful Future awaits, but not if you hold Hostages. If you do, you are DEAD! Make a SMART decision. RELEASE THE HOSTAGES NOW, OR THERE WILL BE HELL TO PAY LATER!"

I wonder how the President really feels.

Trump's post came hours after the White House was challenged by Fox News senior White House correspondent Peter Doocy on its decision to negotiate with the Palestinian terrorist group, the outlet reported.

"If the U.S. has a long-standing policy that we do not negotiate with terrorists, then why is the U.S. now negotiating directly and for the first time ever with Hamas?" Doocy asked.

"Well, when it comes to the negotiations that you're referring to, first of all, the special envoy who's engaged in these negotiations does have the authority to talk to anyone," White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt responded. She added that Israel was "consulted on this matter," and that Trump believes in putting forth "good-faith effort[s] to do what's right for the American people."

"These are ongoing talks and discussions. I'm not going to detail them here," she continued. "There are American lives at stake."

And precious Israeli lives too.

President Trump rejects Arab proposal: has plan to remove Gazans

An Arab-backed proposal to remove Hamas from power and leave Gazans in Gaza was rejected by a Trump administration spokesman. The US is firmly behind President Trump's hope for resettling the Gaza Strip population and sending them out--after all, it seems obvious that most Arabs in Gaza were in support of Hamas and the genocide of all Israelis.

So on Tuesday, the US rejected Egypt's plan to rehabilitate the Gaza Strip and remove Hamas from power, since this would likely never happen in reality, but might give the appearance that peaceful co-existence by the two million anti-Zionists with their Israeli neighbors was possible.

Arab leaders on Tuesday at a Cairo summit voted to support a 112-page proposal drafter by Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi's government. The proposal is an alternative to Trump's Gaza resettlement plan whereby Gazans would be relocated to third-party countries and the Gaza Strip would be transferred to the US.

Under the Egyptian proposal, a non-partisan [LOL] interim committee of anti-Semitic Palestinian Arabs would be formed to administer Gaza after the formal end of the current war between Israel and Hamas.

Once the Palestinian Authority has undergone a major reformation, control of the Gaza Strip would be transferred from the committee to the PA, [not to be confused with Pennsylvania] an Islamic group of Arabs who are basically anti-Semitic and who believe Israel is "Little Satan."

Foreign aid would pay for the years-long reconstruction and rehabilitation of the Gaza Strip in the Egyptian plan, while Gazans would be temporarily relocated within the Strip during the lengthy period of rebuilding, after which they can return and make plans to attack Israel again for the sake of jihad.

Hours after the plan was adopted at the Cairo summit, however, White House National Security Council spokesperson Brian Hughes said Tuesday night that the U.S. would not accept the Egyptian plan, and that the administration remains committed to the president’s resettlement plan.

Hughes argued that the Gaza Strip is presently “uninhabitable,” necessitating their relocation.

“The current proposal does not address the reality that Gaza is currently uninhabitable, and residents cannot humanely live in a territory covered in debris and unexploded ordnance,” Hughes said.

“President Trump stands by his vision to rebuild Gaza free from Hamas. We look forward to further talks to bring peace and prosperity to the region.”

Top FBI Official officially removed: he went after Trump for being Trump

James Dennehy, the head of the New York FBI field office was sent packing Monday. He firing comes just weeks after the emailed his staff encouraging them to "dig in" as the Trump administration began its investigation into the January 6, 2021 Capitol "riot," which in most part was more like an unguided tour of the Capitol. Of course, Rep. Alexandria Obviously-Comatose [AOC] said that she lost her life there, but the only real violence was when Lt. Michael Byrd shot and killed an unarmed woman, Ashli Babbitt by shooting her in the throat as she came through a window.

Dennehy was ordered to resign or be fired on Friday, as reported by NBC News.

“Late Friday, I was informed that I needed to put my retirement papers in today, which I just did,” Dennehy said in an email to staff on Monday. “I was not given a reason for this decision.”

The reasons: he was more of a political operative than an FBI official and he needed to be replaced with someone who would carry out the job without bias.

“I have an immense feeling of pride — to have represented an office of professionals who will always do the right thing for the right reasons; who will always seek the truth while upholding the rule of law,” the Trump-hater said. “I’ve been told many times in my life, ‘When you find yourself in a hole, sometimes it’s best to quit digging.’ Screw that. I will never stop defending this joint. I’ll just do it willingly and proudly from outside the wire.” 

Dennehy has led the New York field office since September. 

Dennehy as he walks out the door

In February, after Department of Justice officials requested the names of FBI agents who worked on January 6 cases, Dennehy encouraged his staff to resist, which is insubordinate and deserves punishment.

“Today, we find ourselves in the middle of a battle of our own, as good people are being walked out of the F.B.I. and others are being targeted because they did their jobs in accordance with the law and F.B.I. policy,” Dennehy wrote to staff at the time, as reported by the former newspaper known as the New York Times.

Dennehy said it was “time for me to dig in” after eight FBI leaders, including the head of the Washington field office, were pushed out of the bureau for their roles in investigations into President Donald Trump.

Driscoll and Kissane have since been replaced by FBI Director Kash Patel and Deputy Director Dan Bongino.

Dennehy also played a major role in the investigation into New York City Mayor Eric Adams. The case against Adams is only nominally active since the Department of Justice moved to drop the case. The Justice Department’s request caused an exodus of prosecutors in New York and Washington.

Dems don't stand for child cancer survivor during Trump's address

President Ronald Reagan is credited with being the first president to highlight everyday Americans during State of the Union addresses in order to illustrate policy impacts they created. Presidents that followed continued that practice and President Trump is no exception.

In his March 4th address, President Trump introduced a 13-year-old boy who is a brain cancer survivor and who loved the police. Trump took his love for the law a step further and made him an honorary Secret Service agent and the boy's eyes lit up when he was handed his credentials. The Republican side of the aisle cheered wildly while most of the Democrats remained sitting on their virtuous butts.

Social media erupted at their disgusting behavior.

"A terminally ill child with brain cancer is given an honorary Secret Service award and the Democrats refuse to stand or clap for the child," Trump administration official Ric Grennell tweeted.

"Democrats refused to stand or clap for a little boy fighting cancer," Libs of TikTok posted on X. "Truly sick people."

"Democrats refused to stand for the brain cancer surviving kid! How awful can one party be?" Outkick founder Clay Travis tweeted.

"Democrats didn’t even stand for the boy who survived brain cancer," Republican activist Scott Pressler posted on X.

"Can’t believe the lousy Democrats can’t even applaud a little boy with brain cancer or a Kennedy who wants to Make America Healthy Again," New York Post columnist Miranda Devine of the New York Post wrote on X.

However, others were more emotional and focused on the significance of the event.

"This is the first time I can remember crying during a state of the union. Thank you President Trump," Meghan McCain posted. "This is so beautiful. Anyone who has been impacted by brain cancer knows how special this is."

Of course, John McCain, Megan's father, (R-AZ) died of brain cancer in 2018.

Then there was the skepticism on the left who said that Trump was using the child and other ordinary Americans as props, but this is exactly what all presidents have done since Reagan so as to make a point. It's okay when Democrats do it, but never when it's the GOP.

The Democrats were rude as Trump spoke and Rep. Al Green (D-TX) had to be removed for his incessant heckling. Other leftists who left the speech early was Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) and comrade Sen. Bernie Sanders (Communist-VT).

I believe this was Trump's finest speech thus far as President. He made common sense points about illegal immigration, males playing in female sports, the Ukraine-Russia war, taxes and other issues. He was strong and clear, unlike his predecessor.

The Democrats came off looking petty and clueless as to how the American public views this administration. They have nothing to offer beside complaining.

IDF exterminates Hamasshole honcho in Jenin op

Photo: Jerusalem Post

On Monday night, under the watchful eye of the Shin Bet, IDF troops killed Isser Sa'adi, the head of the Hamas terrorist organization, to his eternal reward in Jenin. The military confirmed this righteous killing on Tuesday afternoon. During the operation, Border Police and IDF soldiers of the Menashe Brigade also eliminated two additional terrorists and apprehended three wanted men.

The mission began with IDF soldiers rolling into a Jenin neighborhood in Eitan armored vehicles, guided by Shin Bet intelligence to a building concealing Sa'adi. A firefight ensued, and when the smoke cleared, the terrorists lay dead and the wanted men were in custody. A subsequent search uncovered an M-16 rifle, a pistol, and sundry other weapons - the tools of their vile terrorist trade.

Last month, in Operation Iron Wall, the IDF tallied up an impressive score: 25 terrorists liquidated in the West Bank, including arms dealers, bomb makers, and plotters of attacks. Some 350 wanted persons were arrested, 120 weapons seized, and hundreds of explosive devices destroyed. This is what victory looks like against an enemy that knows only hate.

Several weeks prior, Defense Minister Israel Katz ordered intensified operations in West Bank refugee camps after attempted attacks in Gush Dan. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu demanded the military "launch a powerful operation against terrorist strongholds in Judea and Samaria." From his office came further instructions for the Israel Police and Shin Bet to expand preventive efforts in cities.
In phase two of Operation Iron Wall, Katz has advanced a plan for IDF outposts in the camps, thwarting the return of fleeing cowards and girding for a greater military presence. The political leadership has decreed the IDF remain in Jenin and Tulkarm camps until told otherwise. Central Command believes most terrorists have abandoned their lairs, but Israeli soldiers press on, targeting their infrastructure, confiscating arms, and dismantling lingering threats.

On Tuesday night, the military arrested 19 more wanted persons in the West Bank, including Hamas terrorists. The fight goes on against an evil that never sleeps. As I have written before, "The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion." Israel understands this truth in its bones.

Trump goes off on Zelenskyy for making "the worst statement" on the Ukraine-Russia War

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s prediction that an end to his country’s years-long war with Russia is “still very, very far away” received an angry rebuke from President Donald Trump on Monday after an explosive confrontation at the White House last week.

“This is the worst statement that could have been made by Zelenskyy, and America will not put up with it for much longer!” Trump exclaimed in a post to Truth Social, reacting to a report from the Associated Press.

Zelenskyy also appeared to reference British Prime Minister Keir Starmer saying that Europe should do the “heavy lifting” to reach a peace deal between Ukraine and Russia while stressing that the effort “must” have support from the United States to succeed.

“It is what I was saying, this guy doesn’t want there to be Peace as long as he has America’s backing and, Europe, in the meeting they had with Zelenskyy, stated flatly that they cannot do the job without the U.S. – Probably not a great statement to have been made in terms of a show of strength against Russia,” an emphatic Trump added. “What are they thinking?”

Okay guys, let’s break this down with facts and logic, because the situation with Zelenskyy and Ukraine is a masterclass in diplomatic delusion. 

Over the weekend,  Zelenskyy hobnobbed with European leaders—probably sipping espresso and pontificating about solidarity—while insisting that Ukraine’s “relationship” with the United States would “continue.” This, mind you, comes right after a rare earth minerals deal got torpedoed following his Friday shouting match with President Trump and Vice President JD Vance. 

The topic? Ending the Ukraine-Russia war—a conflict where the U.S. has funneled tens of billions of taxpayer dollars to Kyiv like it’s some kind of geopolitical charity case.

Now, here’s where it gets spicy and dicey.

The argument hit fever pitch when Trump—correctly, I might add—told Zelenskyy he’s “gambling with World War III” by not bending over backwards to make peace with Russia. 

Zelenskyy’s response? A veiled threat that the U.S. would “experience the consequences” of this war down the line. Oh, really? That’s the gratitude we get for bankrolling this moron's war effort? America is not your personal ATM.

Then we’ve got Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick on Fox News with Maria Bartiromo, laying it out plain as day. He said Zelenskyy “was there to strike some sort of make-believe bargain”—we’re talking $300 billion in reparations and security guarantees, folks—like he’s negotiating a fantasy football trade instead of a path to peace. 

Lutnick’s take? “And, eventually that just ran its course. And Donald Trump said, I can’t take this nonsense anymore, and made it crystal clear he’s the peacemaker. And if Zelenskyy’s not interested in peace, then he should go home and think about it.” 

Boom. Mic drop. Trump’s not here to play games—he’s the adult in the room, while Zelenskyy’s still scribbling in his dream journal.

So, what’s the takeaway? Zelenskyy’s betting on endless American largesse while thumbing his nose at the guy who’s actually trying to stop the world from imploding. Good luck with that, dude. 

Reality doesn’t negotiate with wishful thinking.

IDF strikes motorized vessel of coast of Khan Yunis

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) fired on a motorboat Monday after firing warning shots that did nothing to stop the vessel from continuing its path, the military said.

“The IDF targeted a suspicious motorboat identified off the coast of northern Khan Yunis, which violated security restrictions in the area and posed a threat,” the IDF stated. “Before the strike, warning shots were fired to drive suspects away from the area.”

The IDF also identified two suspects who approached soldiers in the southern Gaza Strip and posed “an immediate threat,” Israel said. “The forces fired at the suspects to neutralize the threat, and hits were identified.” Israel stated that it will “continue to act to eliminate any threat to the citizens of the State of Israel and IDF forces.”

The ceasefire between Israel and Hamas in Gaza officially expired on Sunday, after the Hamassholes rejected Israel’s offer to extend Phase One of the truce.

Israel announced on Sunday morning that it was suspending all humanitarian aid into the Strip, with full U.S. backing.

“Israel has negotiated in good faith since the beginning of this administration to ensure the release of hostages held captive by Hamas terrorists,” Brian Hughes, a U.S. National Security Council spokesman, told media outlet Axios on Sunday. “We will support their decision on next steps given Hamas has indicated it’s no longer interested in a negotiated ceasefire.”

The European Union condemned Hamas’s refusal to extend the truce but also warned of the humanitarian impact of Israel’s decision to stop aid shipments to their enemy, an unprecedented suicidal tactic.

Israel accepted the U.S. proposal for a 50-day extension of the truce over the Ramadan [Bombathon] and Passover holidays. Under the proposal, half of the remaining hostages (living and deceased) are to be freed on the first day. The rest will be released if a “permanent” ceasefire is agreed upon.

By "permanent" ceasefire, Hamas believes it means to wait until the time is right and then let all hell break loose.

Israeli assessments indicate that Palestinian terrorist groups in Gaza are holding 59 hostages. Of these, 24 are believed to be alive—all men—while 35, including three women, are believed to be deceased. Two of the living hostages and three of the deceased are foreign nationals.

Israel seems serious about winning the war: considering cutting off power to Gaza and resume fighting

Folks, let's cut through the garbage and get to the facts. Israel's government, according to the national broadcaster Kan, is mulling over some serious measures to pressure those terrorist scumcrumpets in Hamas to release more hostages. This comes after the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas went kaput over the weekend.

On Sunday, the first phase of the January 19th ceasefire expired, and these clowns couldn't agree on extending the hostages-for-truce deal or moving to phase two. Israel, being the reasonable party, embraced an American proposal to extend the truce through Ramadan and Passover, ending April 19th, in exchange for all remaining hostages in two transfers. But Hamas, in their infinite wisdom, insists Israel negotiate a full IDF withdrawal from Gaza. Give me a break.

So, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, showing some testosterone, ordered a halt to aid flowing into Gaza until Hamas resumes releasing hostages. Later that day, Israeli media reported Jerusalem's got a plan to squeeze Hamas until they cry uncle.

Channel 14 says Energy Minister Eli Cohen (Likud) will propose to the cabinet that Israel cut off Gaza from its electric grid. 

After Hamas' barbaric invasion on October 7th, Israel rightly severed Gaza's electric supply, leaving them reliant on generators and dealing with rolling blackouts. Last July, Israel, in a moment of misplaced generosity, resumed electricity to parts of Gaza for public facilities like water treatment and desalination. If Cohen's plan goes through, Gaza could face total blackouts once their fuel runs dry. Boo hoo.

If you're serious about winning a war, you take away your enemy's comforts and advantages.

But wait, there's more! Kan reports Jerusalem's considering evacuating northern Gaza again, sealing it off, and relocating residents to Khan Yunis and Rafah. And if that’s not enough, Israel might resume hostilities within a week, using heavy air munitions that Dementia Joe Biden banned.

Release the hostages or face the consequences of your idiotic choices Hamas. Israel’s done playing games with you terrorist losers.

1 Dead, 4 Injured in Knife Attack in Israel

Haifa, Israel -- One person is dead and four others were injured on Monday when a 20-year-old Druze Israeli began stabbing people at a central transit hub.

The Times of Israel reported that the killer suffered from mental illness [known as anti-Semitism evidently] the family said.

The knife attack is being treated as a “militant attack,” according to Fox News. Fortunately, a security guard and an unarmed civilian killed the attacker as the Mayor of Boston sent out her heart felt condolences to his family. It was reported that the attacker had recently returned to Israel after spending time abroad.

“My wife Sara and I extend our deepest condolences to the family of the victim of the horrific terrorist attack in Haifa, and we send our wishes for a speedy recovery to the injured,” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a statement after the attack. “We will continue to fight those who seek to harm us – wherever they are – and we will defeat them.”

The sole casualty was a 70-year-old man who was stabbed in the back multiple times, the Times reported. Hassan Karim Dahamsheh was a resident of the Arab town of Kafr Kanna in Israel. In addition, a 15-year-old boy was stabbed and is in stable condition while a woman in her 70s and a man and woman in their 30s were also stabbed but were hospitalized with less serious wounds.

An eyewitness told a local outlet that the 20-year-old got off a bus from Shfar’am and shouted “Allahu Akbar” [Allah is greater] and began attacking people around him with a knife. 

Israel Police Chief Daniel Levy said police were working to confirm that the attacker acted alone, the Times reported. The outlet also noted that police raided the suspect’s home and were questioning his family who claimed their son was mentally ill, which naturally takes the onus off them. 

Shfar’am Mayor Nahad Hazem told the Kan public broadcaster that two of the five victims were from his city and that one was a relative of his office director.

“It is a heinous crime, and I completely condemn it,” he told the outlet.

The killer’s relatives denied that he was a terrorist, saying he had a mental illness and asked that they try not to think about the "Allahu Akbar" shouting.

“I am a disabled IDF veteran and his other uncle is a reserve soldier. We have nothing in our family hostile to the state,” his uncle Roni Kharis reportedly told Ynet.

The Palestinian terrorist group Hamas, whose motto is, "Killing Jews is how we roll," praised the attack but did not take credit for it.

As the Times reported, the stabbing was the latest “in a string of terror attacks targeting public transportation in Israel, after a ramming attack at a bus stop on Thursday and a series of botched bus bombings near Tel Aviv a week earlier.” The botched bombings were due to the terrorist's inability to distinguish a.m. from p.m.

Mannheim, Germany: 1 dead, several injured in car ramming attack

On Monday, the civilized tranquility of a crowded market in Mannheim, Germany was shattered by the roar of an engine and the screams of the innocent. A suspect, now in custody, rammed their car into the unsuspecting throng, leaving a trail of carnage in their wake. 

The Mannheimer Morgen newspaper relayed the chilling accounts of eyewitnesses who watched in horror as the driver sped from a nearby water tower to the parade ground, striking multiple victims with callous disregard.

"As part of the search measures that were immediately initiated, a suspect was identified and arrested," the Mannheim Police declared, as reported by NBC News. "No further, reliable information can currently be released beyond the information published so far." A reticence that does little to assuage the fears of a public left to wonder at the scope of the devastation, with no word on the tally of the injured or the gravity of their wounds.

The scene of this brutality was a carnival market opened just last Thursday, where attendees sought the simple pleasures of food stalls, rides, and games—joys now forever tainted by the memory of this assault. Initial reports from the Morgen suggest that, by some small mercy, the vendors and employees of the carnival emerged unscathed. Yet one eyewitness recounted to the outlet the grim spectacle of the driver crashing through barricades, claiming lives in his path—one soul found lifeless amid the wreckage.

"It is terrible here," an employee lamented to the Morgen, "nobody knows what happened, you only see injured people and the dead, and you don’t know what to do." A lament that echoes across a nation still reeling from similar atrocities.

Just two weeks prior, an Afghan national plowed his vehicle into a crowd in Munich, snuffing out two lives—including that of a small child—and wounding dozens more, as The Daily Wire reported. "The suspect is a 24-year-old man of Afghan nationality," Munich Police stated. "He drove a car into a gathering in the Seidlstrasse area from behind." 

Bild revealed that this perpetrator was no stranger to law enforcement, known for drug and theft offenses, his extremist leanings a festering threat. Bavarian Minister-President Markus Söder minced no words: "The attack shows that something has to change in Germany – and quickly!"

It's all about jihad, isn't it?

What emerges from this grim chronicle is a portrait of a nation under siege, not merely by the acts themselves, but by a willful blindness to the warning signs that precede them. The blood on the streets of Mannheim, Munich, and Magdeburg cries out for a reckoning—a demand that Germany confront the peril within its borders before yet another market is stained red.

But it isn't only about Germany; it's an attack on Western civilization, and one can only deny this at their peril.

Sec'y of State Rubio signs declaration to hasten delivery of $4 billion military aid to Israel

President Trump has reversed the Biden administration's embargo placed on Israel and is now allowing the Jewish state to actually win the war against Hamas and all their anti-Semitic terrorist groups. In addition, Secretary of State Marco Rubio has signed a declaration to expedite the delivery of approximately $4 billion in military equipment to Israel. 

The current negotiations between Israel and Hamas will likely not result in a peace agreement, and even if it did, Hamas will not rest until Israel and every Jew residing there, is destroyed and killed. And because Israel will demand that Hamas is exiled from the Gaza Strip which will never happen.

When the war resumes in 4-6 weeks, Israel will have the military and diplomatic support that it needs to eradicate Hamas, and shortly thereafter destroy Iran’s nuclear facilities.

Thank you @POTUS and ⁦@SecRubio⁩ for this welcome change of policy and practice following the shameful arms embargo imposed by the Biden Administration. As Israel defends itself in a 7 front war, your unprecedented support is deeply appreciated. https://t.co/zPPbzDyjRx

The Trump administration has approved nearly $12 billion in major foreign military sales to Israel, Rubio said in a statement, adding that it “will continue to use all available tools to fulfill America’s long-standing commitment to Israel’s security, including means to counter security threats.”

Bibi and Katz order IDF to protect Syrian Druze

The Druze, with the support of Israel, now fully control the southern Syrian region of Sweida, the first overwhelming majority non-Muslim state in the Middle East since Israel, as the Jewish state is partnering with other minorities under the violent rule of Muslims in the region. The goal is to defeat the jihad armies and live in peace.

The Druze, with the support of Israel, now fully control the southern Syrian region of Sweida with its nearly half a million people. Of these, more than 85% are Druze and nearly 10% are Christian. This is undoubtedly the safest land for Druze and Christians in Syria.

Sweida would become the first overwhelmingly non-Muslim state in the Middle East since Israel

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Israel Katz have instructed the IDF to prepare to protect the Druze village of Jaramana, Syria, following an attack by Syrian government forces on the area. Jaramana is approximately three kilometers southeast of Damascus, Syria’s capital.

In a strongly worded statement, Netanyahu and Katz said that Israel will not allow harm to the Druze in Syria.

“We will not allow the extreme Islamist terror regime in Syria to harm the Druze,” they said. “If the regime harms the Druze – it will be harmed by us.”

In accordance with Netanyahu and Katz’s instruction, the IDF was instructed to send a harsh warning message to the Syrian regime, and prepare to respond in case of an additional attack against the Druze in Jaramana.

“We are committed to our brothers, the Druze in Israel, to do everything in order to prevent harm to their brothers, the Druze in Syria,” they stressed. “We will take all of the necessary steps to protect their security.”

This comes after a military escalation in southern Syria as reports say there is increasing fighting between the Syrian regime forces and the Druze residents who oppose the Assad regime. 

Israel is closely watching what happens, due to concerns for the civilian population and the disruption of stability on Israel’s northern border.

Mike Waltz: Zelensky was "incredibly disrespectful"

In a Compromised News Network (CNN) interview Sunday, National Security Advisor Mike Waltz said that the idea the Trump administration "ambushed" Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was "absolutely false" and that it was Z's demeanor and behavior during the meeting that mucked things up. Even Zelensky's body language, his arms crossed tightly across his chest, his facial expressions and the like, gave a message of contempt for Trump and JD Vance, and it was this that derailed the event.

Waltz made the remarks to Dana Bash on “State of the Union” when asked about how things could get back on track between the United States and Ukraine after the blowup in the Oval Office on Friday.

“What was so, I think, stunning to all of us in the Oval Office was that it was not clear Zelensky was going to go to negotiations at all, that he would ever be able to negotiate with Putin, and whether he shared our goal of ending this war,” Waltz said.

“So, what I made clear, as Secretary Rubio and I said, look, this cannot proceed, was that this was a huge missed opportunity for him and for his country,” he added.

Waltz explained that Zelensky could have left the meeting on Friday with a deal in hand as he went back to Europe to meet with President Macron of France and with Prime Minister Starmer of the United Kingdom “where they were talking about European boots on the ground, security guarantees for Ukraine, a positive movement towards ending this war, and having Ukraine and the United States being bound together for a generation economically.”

He said the President was clear that Zelensky will be welcomed back to the White House when he is “ready to truly engage for peace.” It was not clear to the Trump administration that he wanted to negotiate an end to the war with Russia and that Zelensky's  “demands of security guarantees” were a potential roadblock.

“And, further, coming to the Oval Office, with the body language, the shaking of head, the kind of the arms crossed, we just found it incredibly disrespectful,” he said. “We were ready to sign that deal.”

“I want to address directly that this was some type of ambush,” he continued. “It is absolutely false. We had negotiated the minerals deal in the weeks prior. It was difficult, but it was done and finalized and ready to be signed in the East Room.”

This is not the first time Zelensky has rejected the minerals deal with Trump. In fact, it was the third time and the administration was simply fed up with the Ukrainian leader's attitude and his lying.

The US is not going to provide military assistance to Ukraine

“The United States will no longer provide military assistance to Ukraine, peace negotiations are a priority,” the Trump White House said. So while the left attacks Trump as everything evil, including a war monger, it's he who is working to bring peace to Ukraine and Russia.

“We are no longer going to just write blank checks for a war in a very distant country without a real, lasting peace,” Karoline Leavitt, the White House Press Secretary said, commenting on Zelensky’s public dispute with President Trump and Vice President Vance.

The US is not going to provide military assistance to Ukraine.

“It was great that the cameras were working because the American people and the whole world could see what President Trump and his team were dealing with behind closed doors in negotiations with the Ukrainians,” she added. "Any good deal, whether in business or politics, usually leaves both sides a little unhappy. And unfortunately for Zelensky, I think he refused to acknowledge the practical reality of this war."

[If you would like to support my work, you can Buy Me A Coffee and subscribe]

Now that the White House meeting with Zelensky and the press went public, it gives Trump the opportunity to stand tall against Ukraine. He can shut down all aid and dig deeper into the money laundering investigation. In fact, it's going to be somewhat easier for Trump to negotiate with Putin.

“President Trump wants peace. But for negotiations, both sides must sit down at the table and have a dialogue. In a good deal, both sides usually leave a little dissatisfied. Volodymyr Zelensky does not understand this,” Leavitt explained.

I think many Americans felt uncomfortable watching the White House meeting with Trump, Vance and Zelensky, but it made the point that Ukraine's leader, the guy who worked with the Democratic Party to beat Trump in this past election, is an ungrateful twit who refuses to give an inch in the minerals deal and who expects that we have some sort of obligation to fund his military.

It's beginning to look as if his days as Ukraine's president are numbered.

Trump's task force to visit Columbia and 9 other schools to combat anti-Semitism

The Trump administration's task force slated to combat pro-Hamas Jew-hatred will be visiting Columbia University in New York City and nine other schools that have been supporting Hamas since they massacred around 1,200 Israelis and kidnapped 251 others on October 7, 2023, the DoJ announced Friday.

Leo Terrell, the leader of a special task force and a senior advisor to the assistant attorney general for civil rights, told 10 universities on Thursday that they might have broken federal laws. The Justice Department says these schools didn’t do enough to stop Jewish students and teachers from facing unfair treatment, which is against the law. Terrell explained that his team, made up of people from different government agencies, will talk to university bosses, affected students and workers, local police, and people in the community to learn more about what’s been happening. He’ll also look into whether the schools need to take any steps to fix the problem or punish anyone involved.

"The President, Attorney General Pamela Bondi, and the entire Administration are committed to ensuring that no one should feel unsafe or unwelcome on campus because of their religion," Terrell said. "The Task Force’s mandate is to bring the full force of the federal government to bear in our effort to eradicate Anti-Semitism, particularly in schools. These visits are just one of many steps this Administration is taking to deliver on that commitment."

The Justice Department launched the task force earlier this month "to root out anti-Semitic harassment in schools and on college campuses." It stems from an executive order President Donald Trump signed in January intended to take "forceful and unprecedented steps to combat anti-Semitism."

Four of the schools slated for a visit by the task force—Columbia, the University of California, Berkeley, Northwestern University, and the University of Minnesota—are also facing investigations from the Department of Education, which launched probes into "widespread anti-Semitic harassment" at the schools just two weeks into Trump’s second term. A fifth school, Portland State University, is also part of the investigation but isn’t included in the task force’s visits . . . yet.

Columbia, in particular, has faced ongoing anti-Semitic incidents. On Wednesday, two anti-Semitic student groups—Columbia University Apartheid Divest and Columbia’s Students for Justice in Palestine chapter—led a mob of student Jew haters who stormed a campus building at Columbia’s sister school, Barnard College and clashed with security guards, sending one to the hospital.

The group also held a dean captive, covered up security cameras, broke into an office, vandalized walls, and forced class cancellations. In other words, they committed acts of terrorism but were short of killing anyone at this point in time.

The scum-buckets got off scot-free after the cowardly enabling administration promised not to pursue disciplinary action, and even shielded them from police as they exited the building after occupying it for over six hours. They also agreed to continue negotiations the next day in a private meeting. 

It isn't know whether the administration plans to dry clean their keffiyehs, but it shouldn't surprise anyone if they did.

The student radicals were pressuring the Barnard administration to reverse its decision to expel two students who were involved in another anti-Semitic incident at Columbia. The pair were among a group of pro-Hamas agitators who rushed into an Israeli history class and targeted Jewish students with anti-Semitic flyers.

A week later, anti-Israel student radicals dumped cement into a campus building’s sewage system and apparently got away with the dastardly deed.

At Berkeley, a violent protest last year erupted over a scheduled speech by an Israeli lawyer, Ran Bar-Yoshafat, the Free Beacon reported. During the event, which had to be canceled due to the violence, mobs of anti-Semitic students choked a female student attendee, spit in another’s face, and shouted, "Jew, Jew, Jew."

During the anti-Israel protests at Northwestern last year, demonstrators, some of whom were from the Middle East, defaced the Star of David and chanted that Jews should "go back to Germany," even those that were born in the US, among other stupid anti-Semitic incidents. 

Northwestern is also giving free legal defense to a group of anti-Israel morons who orchestrated a blockade at Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport, highlighting a perceived inconsistency in addressing discriminatory practices on campus.

At the University of Minnesota, anti-Israel student radicals stormed a campus building in October, used furniture to barricade exit doors, trapped staff inside, and demanded divestment from the Jewish state, but allow cool Israeli inventions to continue [see video].

Harvard University and the University of California, Los Angeles are also among the universities the task force is visiting.

Jewish students at Harvard accused the Ivy League university of becoming a "bastion of anti-Semitism" in a January 2024 lawsuit. 

The day after Trump’s inauguration, the school settled the lawsuit, agreeing to discipline students who target "Zionists" and adopt the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance’s definition of anti-Semitism. 

In November, anti-Israel/anti-Semitic protesters chanted, "Zionists are not welcome here," outside of Harvard’s Hillel when it hosted a speech by former Israel Defense Forces spokesman Ronen Manelis. The university also refused to cooperate with law enforcement investigating an assault on a Jewish student last September.

At UCLA, the school’s Students for Justice in Palestine chapter vandalized the home of a Jewish University of California regent on Feb. 5. The university has also faced accusations that it was allowing anti-Semitism to run rampant. In August, a federal judge blasted the university for standing around doing nothing as anti-Semites prevented Jewish students from accessing portions of campus.

The task force will also be visiting George Washington University, Johns Hopkins University, NYU, and the University of Southern California.

Am Yisrael Chai.

Anti-Israel/anti-Semitic violent protesters at Barnard College arrested

More protests broke out on Thursday at Barnard College, in New York City, after a group of more than 50 anti-Israel Jew-hating Islamists took over a building on campus the day before.

The NYPD made several arrests after the protests reignited, with about 100 anti-Israel protesters gathering in front of the entrance to Barnard, once again wearing masks and keffiyehs and chanting, "Free Palestine," a place that only exists in their minds.

Tension rose and became more chaotic as protesters marched from Barnard to CUNY's City College campus, to protest outside Gov. Kathy Hochul's event at CUNY, which was canceled due to the anticipated protest and her fear of getting involved.

The protesters were heard chanting criticisms of Hochul and "NYPD KKK," and tried to breach police barricades and get close to officers' faces. The irony is that the Jew-hating protesters are indistinguishable from the KKK when it comes to their racist hatred.

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA), spoke out against the protests.

"ENOUGH IS ENOUGH," Johnson wrote in a post on X.

"Pro-Hamas mobs have NO place on our college campuses. Barnard College & Columbia University must put an end to the anti-Semitic chaos on campus."

Robin Levine, Barnard’s vice president for strategic communications, confirmed that a faculty member was injured during Wednesday's protest and sent to the hospital, but did not offer further details, in spite of her being Jewish but not wanting to get labeled Islamophobic.

"They encouraged others to enter campus without identification, showing blatant disregard for the safety of our community," Levine said in a previous statement.

The school warned that if the students were not gone by 9:30 p.m., officials would be forced to take "additional, necessary measures to protect our campus." 

Power hoses might suffice.

The protesters began leaving the building by 11 p.m., according to reports by FOX 5 New York as it was for many, their bedtime.

The students were protesting the expulsion of two students who stormed a Columbia University classroom in January and allegedly threw around flyers filled with hateful, anti-Semitic speech.

Columbia Students for Justice in Palestine, a place they cannot show us on a map, displayed videos on X of masked students in a hallway on Wednesday, beating on drums and chanting on megaphones.

The account also posted a list of demands accompanied by "WE WILL NOT STOP UNTIL OUR DEMANDS ARE MET. FREE PALESTINE."

If they get arrested, they will stop.

The demands include an "immediate reversal of the two Barnard students’ expulsions" and "amnesty for all students disciplined for pro-Palestine action or thought. Drop all the charges now!" 

Sorry, children, but people who commit crimes must be held accountable, as I hope you soon find out in a more personal way.

The protesters also requested a public meeting with Dean Leslie Grinage and President Laura Rosenbury, and the abolition of the "corrupt Barnard disciplinary process," demanding complete transparency for current, past and future disciplinary proceedings.

The students vowed that they will continue to disrupt the campus until these demands are met, so they obviously need to be held accountable.

We shall see, but don't hold your breath.

Trump, JD square off with Zelenskyy in heated White House meeting with press in attendance

I can't remember a meeting between heads of state being so heated as today's meeting with Volodomyr Zelenskyy, President Donald Trump, and Vice President JD Vance. The meeting devolved into Trump making the point that Zelenskyy never thanked the US for all the money and weapons we gave Ukraine, and this was backed up by Vance. 

I felt as if there was too much transparency at this meeting, ostensibly aimed at working on a new mineral deal with Ukraine.

“Do you think that it’s respectful to come to the Oval Office of the United States of America and attack the administration that is trying to prevent the destruction of your country?” Vance asked Zelenskyy. “Right now you guys are going around and forcing conscripts to the front lines because you have manpower problems.

“You should be thanking the president for trying to bring an end to this conflict,” the Vice President added, noting that Zelenskyy was “forcing conscripts to the front lines because you have manpower problems.”

“During war, everybody has problems, even you, but you have a nice ocean and don’t feel now, but you will feel it in the future,” Zelenskyy replied.

Zelenskyy then invited Vance to visit Ukraine, and Vance accused Zelenskyy of embarking on propaganda tours, which of course they are.

“You don’t know that,” Trump said, cutting in as Zelenskyy continued to try to interrupt. “Don’t tell us what we’re going to feel. … You’re in no position to dictate what we are going to feel. We are going to feel very good. … You’re right now not in a very good position. You’ve allowed yourself to be in a very bad position and [Vance] happens to be right about it.”

“You don’t have the cards right now,” Trump added. “With us you start having cards. You’re gambling with the lives of millions of people. You’re gambling with World War III, and what you’re doing is very disrespectful to the country.”

Vance then cut in, asking Zelenskyy if he had said “thank you” at all during the meeting. It was like he was speaking on behalf of the average American whose money went to fund Ukraine's war with Russia and also his way of supporting Trump.

“You went to Pennsylvania and campaigned for the opposition in October,” Vance said. “Offer some words of appreciation to the United States of America and the president who is trying to save your country.”

Zelenskyy responded by accusing Vance of speaking “very loudly,” at which point Trump cut in to defend Vance.

“Your country is in big trouble,” Trump said.

“I know,” Zelenskyy agreed.

The two began arguing about the billions of dollars and military equipment the United States provided to Ukraine.

“It’s going to be a very hard thing to do business like this,” Trump said.

Vance then suggested it would have been better to litigate the disagreements in a meeting, rather than in front of reporters, which is true. There are some things that should go on behind closed doors and the way Zelenskyy was embarrassed, this was one of those times.

“I think that it’s good for the American people to see what’s going on. That’s why I kept this going so long,” Trump said. “You have to be thankful, you don’t have the cards.”

“I am very thankful,” Zelenskyy said.

Trump said that “attitudes have to change” adding that the heated exchange is “great television.”

But is it wise diplomacy? Now both leaders are at loggerheads and neither one wants to give in. 

The meeting began on less fiery terms, with Trump assuring reporters that his recent tensions with Zelenskyy — most notably when Trump referred to Zelenskyy as a “dictator” — had “worked out great.”

Trump added that he had “very good discussions” with Russian President Vladimir Putin and that he’s going to try to bring the war “to a close.” He also called Ukrainian soldiers “unbelievably brave” and said he gives credit to Ukrainian generals.

“I hope I’m going to be remembered as a peacemaker,” Trump said. “This would be a great thing if we can do this. I’m doing this to save lives more than anything else. Second, to save money, but I consider that to be far less important.”

Trump also said that the United States would continue to send arms to Ukraine, but said “hopefully we won’t have to send much, because I’m looking forward to getting [the war] done quickly.” Hopefully, Zelenskyy will get the hint.

Prior to arriving at the White House, Zelenskyy met with a bipartisan group of senators where they discussed military assistance for Ukraine and ending the war. He is expected to do an event with the Hudson Institute at 4:00 p.m.

When greeting Zelenskyy to the White House as he exited his car, Trump quipped “he’s all dressed up today!” Zelenskyy was wearing a black sweater and baggy black pants.

Zelenskyy left the meeting without signing the mineral deal.

That seems to suck for both countries, but mostly for Ukraine.

Hamas planned an attack on Israeli embassy in Germany

At long last, the wheels of justice have begun to grind in Germany, where four Hamas operatives—men who have marinated for years in the rancid ideology of global jihad—are finally facing trial. These are not mere footnotes in the annals of terror; they are protagonists in a chilling plot to strike at the heart of Western civilization, targeting high-profile symbols of freedom across Germany.

“For the first time in Germany, people are facing charges of participating as members of the foreign terrorist organization Hamas,” declared prosecutor Jochen Weingarten as the proceedings opened on Tuesday. And what a rogues’ gallery they assembled for the occasion: Ibrahim El-R and Abdelhamid Al A., both Lebanese-born; Mohamed B., hailing from Egypt; and Nazih R., a Dutch citizen. 

These men, armed with European residency permits—those golden tickets of trust so generously bestowed—turned their privileges into weapons of betrayal, weaving a network of arms caches across the continent like some grotesque parody of a treasure hunt.

Their ambitions were as grandiose as they were depraved. 

The Israeli Embassy in Berlin, the US Air Base in Ramstein, and Berlin’s Tempelhof Airport—all were marked for carnage. These were not random targets but deliberate strikes at the symbols of Jewish resilience, American power, and European openness. It’s the kind of audacity that would make even the most jaded observer pause and marvel at the sheer scale of their malevolence.

The plot began to take shape in the spring of 2019, when Ibrahim El-R slipped into Bulgaria—a nation still wrestling with its own shadows—to establish a depot brimming with ammunition and firearms, including a Kalashnikov rifle, that old standby of the terrorist class. Months later, he ventured to Denmark, emptying another cache and ferrying at least one pistol back to Germany. The weapons slumbered, biding their time, until August 2023, when Ibrahim returned to Bulgaria mere weeks before Hamas unleashed its barbarism on Israel on October 7th. 

As war erupted in Gaza, the puppet masters in Hamas flicked the switch, activating their European sleeper cell.

Over the summer, this quartet of would-be executioners crisscrossed from Berlin, scouring Poland for yet another elusive arms stash—a quest that, mercifully, ended in failure. One can almost picture them, traipsing through Eastern Europe, clutching their jihadist scavenger maps, only to come up empty-handed. 

The irony is as thick as it is gratifying.

Their dreams of bloodletting, however, were not to be. In December 2023, German authorities swooped in, apprehending three of the plotters on home soil, while the fourth, Nazih R., was nabbed in the Netherlands and extradited in February 2024. 

It’s a rare moment of competence in a Europe too often paralyzed by its own delusions of moral equivalence.

This trial is more than a legal reckoning; it’s a stark reminder of the enemy within—men who exploit the liberties of the West to sow chaos and death. Their targets—the embassy, the air base, the airport—speak volumes about their intent: to shatter the fragile threads that bind our societies. That they failed is a relief, but that they came so close is a warning we ignore at our peril.

USAID bribed Time Magazine with $4 million to name Zelenskyy "Person of the Year"

As Elon Musk's team known as DOGE sniffs out the rot in government, it has been discovered that USAID paid Time magazine $4,000,000 to name Volodymyr Zelenskyy "Person of the Year." This might be surprising to some people as Ukraine's leader isn't gay or a transgender, but should we really be surprised?

Is there any media outlet on the left that wasn't on USAID's payroll?

Thankfully, DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency) has put the rot in the sunlight where people can now see it for themselves. Had they not, we taxpayers would never know how much our government wastes.

BBC,CBS, TIME, and Politico, are just some of the media that got paid for telling us what to think.

IDF to resume the eradication of Hamas: cutting off aid and bombarding Strip with boots on the ground

Israeli decision-makers plan to resume the Gaza war in four to six weeks with shock and awe, sending in tens of thousands of troops to conquer the entire strip in a single coordinated offensive against Hamas terrorists.

Incoming military chief of staff Eyal Zamir has, at the direction of Prime Minister Benjamin "Bibi" Netanyahu and Defense Minister Israel Katz, started developing the plan, according to several current and former Israeli officials with knowledge of high-level discussions.

Israel plans to deploy more soldiers in Gaza than it had previously used--more than 50,000 troops, before relocating civilian Hamas supporters to humanitarian zones. The IDF will then wage a 

Under the plan, Israel will deploy more troops to Gaza than it has to this point in the war—over 50,000—before relocating the civilian population to humanitarian zones and waging a merciless ground campaign against Arab terrorists across the rest of the Gaza Strip.

“We’re going to see four to five divisions simultaneously attack in the north, in the center, and in the south, to occupy every area and clear out the enemy,” Hezi Nehama said. He is a former IDF colonel who co-authored the Generals’ Plan, an influential proposal for a staged siege of Gaza. “It will look different than what we saw in the war until now.”

“It’s going to be decisive,” said Amir Avivi, a former Israeli brigadier general who has advised the Israeli government and military during the war. “Israel will use every tool it has to conquer Gaza and eradicate Hamas.”

It's about time. In the past, the fighting always ended with Hamas and Israel's enemies still intact. This needs to change and Israel must protect itself from future attacks. They need to control all of Gaza and rid the country of Hamassholes, Hezbollah, the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, and their ilk.

The plan begins with a wave of airstrikes on Gaza and a reduction of humanitarian aid to Gaza, the sources said. “There will be no aid outside the humanitarian zones,” said Kobi Michael, a former head of the Palestinian desk at the Israel’s Strategic Affairs Ministry and before that a senior Israeli military intelligence official. 

After all, what army in human history supplied their foes with supplies? And the world expects this from Israel because the world is rooting for the other teams.

“This will prevent Hamas from continuing to steal all the humanitarian aid and will increase pressure on the group through the local population,” Michael added.

Nehama said Israel plans to expand an existing humanitarian zone in Al-Mawasi in southern Gaza into a single giant refuge. Other sources said there would be several humanitarian zones.

The IDF raised its alert and readiness level along the Gaza border on Sunday, and Hamas has also reportedly started making preparations for renewed fighting.

Zamir, the incoming military chief of staff, estimates that the plan, which he will present to Netanyahu and Katz after taking office next Thursday, can be completed in six months or less, according to Nehama.

The plan could be paused if Hamas agrees to release more of the 59 Israeli hostages still held in Gaza, 35 of them confirmed dead, or to disarm and leave Gaza in exchange for an end to the war, the sources said. But the chances of the latter happening is as likely as Mahmoud Abbas converting to Judaism. 

Israeli decision-makers agree and don't believe Hamas is ready to make such compromises. After all, the hostages are the only bargaining chip for the terrorists and if they release them, then Israel can go all-out war on the terrorists.

Israel’s plan to resume the war comes on the heels of a string of military and diplomatic successes that leave the Jewish state less constrained than at any previous point in the past 17 months of war, thanks to President Trump. 

Hezbollah agreed in November to a humiliating ceasefire with Israel, easing pressure on Israel’s overstretched army, but it's not crazy to think given enough time to regroup, resupply and replenish troops that Hezbollah will stay out of the anti-Zionist fray.

“We always had divisions in the north, and now we don’t need divisions in the north because Hezbollah is not a threat,” said Nehama. “So we can take those divisions and put them all in Gaza at the same time, and this is very important.”

In January, President Trump began reversing former alleged president Joe Biden’s efforts to restrain Israel and accommodate its genocidal enemies.

Trump has aligned more closely with Israel against Hezbollah and Iran and ended the Biden handler[s] restrictions on U.S. military aid to Israel.

In Gaza, meanwhile, Trump has taken an even harder line than Bibi, pushing the prime minister to resume the war with Hamas and resettle Gazans abroad.

During Netanyahu’s visit to the White House earlier this month, Trump told the prime minister to “do whatever you need to do” to defeat Hamas, according to an Israeli military official who described the meeting on condition of anonymity. But, the official said, Trump gave Netanyahu just 150 days to finish the job.

And this appears to be Bibi's plan.

Israel’s government, meanwhile, has replaced a number of top security officials who resisted deeper involvement in Gaza, including former defense minister Yoav Gallant and outgoing military chief of staff Herzi Halevi, with generals who are considered more hawkish. They had the same historical cyclic strategy to fight, stop, wait, and fight again after the enemy has regained its military strength. 

Israel has got to stop trying to be the good guys in order to win the love of the world. It isn't going to happen anyway, so they need to finish the job and let the haters hate.

An Israeli government official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said that in recent cabinet meetings, ministers have “completely rejected” Halevi’s approach to Gaza and accused him of “doing everything he can to prevent victory in the war,” the World Israel News reported. 

“Behind the scenes, there are discussions with Zamir, which are much more constructive,” the anonymous official said. “We hope to see him take leadership of the military and execute his plans.”

In a meeting early February with Netanyahu, Katz and Yaron Finkelman, the head of Israel’s Southern Command, Zamir rejected Halevi’s latest proposal for the Gaza war as too timid, according to Nehama and another former Israeli military official, who spoke on condition of anonymity.

“The next chief of staff didn’t like what he heard,” Nehama said. “He told the prime minister and the defense minister that he would present them with another plan, much more aggressive and decisive with many more troops involved.”

As I said before, the ridiculous cycle of war between Israel and her enemies has got to end here and now. The Jewish State needs to end the war by ending Hamas and all others who would see the demise of the Jews in Israel and then globally. 

It must end now.

Heads explode as Trump gives DOGE more power

President Donald J. Trump has signed an executive order Wednesday to “further reign in government waste and officially implement” the Department of Government Efficiency’s “cost efficiency initiative.”

Hoo boy--you can hear the flatulence-sounding explosions going off in Eric Swalwell's circle of Chinese Communist friends and others.

Trump's order requires each agency head to work directly with the DOGE team and find where government contracts and grants can be modified or even canned altogether. And this is to "commence immediately" with the aim to reduce federal spending or “reallocate spending to promote efficiency and advance the policies” of the Trump administration.

President Trump signed the order after holding the first cabinet meeting of his new administration, during which his senior adviser, Elon Musk, who influences DOGE’s actions, spoke at length about the department’s goals, causing Democrat hands to be wrung and tsk-tsks to be made.

“The overall goal here with the DOGE team is to address the enormous deficit,” Musk told Trump cabinet members on Wednesday. “We simply cannot sustain as a country two-trillion-dollar deficits. Just the interest on the debt now exceeds the Defense Department spending.”

Musk, the SpaceX and Tesla CEO said that DOGE is working as “a support function for the president and for the agencies and departments to help achieve those savings to effectively find 15% reduction in fraud and waste.” 

Trump’s executive order seeks to increase DOGE’s ability to drastically reduce federal spending. The order requires “Each Agency Head, in consultation with the agency’s DOGE Team Lead, [to] conduct a comprehensive review of each agency’s contracting policies, procedures, and personnel.”

Per the president’s order, the DOGE team is required to provide the DOGE administrator with “a monthly informational report on contracting activities” that includes “all payment justifications provided pursuant to that process, to the extent consistent with law.”

Earlier this month, the White House clarified that Elon Musk is not the DOGE administrator. On Monday, they announced that Amy Gleason, a healthcare executive with experience in both the Trump and Biden administrations, holds the position. From 2018 to 2021, Gleason was part of the U.S. Digital Service (USDS), which later transformed into DOGE.

President Trump recently issued a new directive for DOGE, building on an executive order he signed earlier this month. That order instructed federal agency heads to “coordinate and consult” with DOGE during hiring and to “limit hiring to essential positions.”

Some critics are growing worried about DOGE and Musk’s expanding influence within the Trump administration. On Wednesday, a reporter asked Trump if any cabinet members were “unhappy” with Musk’s involvement. Trump replied that some might “disagree a little bit,” but he went on to say, “For the most part, I think everyone is not only happy, but thrilled.”

IDF will not withdraw from the Philadelphi corridor

Israel has decided not to pull its forces out of the Philadelphi corridor, which is the border area between Egypt and Gaza, even though this was part of the ceasefire deal with Hamxs, an Israeli official told ABC News.

"We will not allow Hamxs murderers to once again roam our borders with pickup trucks and guns, and we will not allow them to rebuild strength from smuggling," the official explained in a statement. This shows Israel’s worry about Hamxs regaining power if they leave the area.

The Philadelphi corridor has been a major issue in talks between Israel and Hamxs for months before they agreed to the ceasefire. Israel’s refusal to leave could cause problems with both Hamas and Egypt, who helped make the ceasefire happen, especially since the peace is already shaky.

According to the ceasefire plan, Israel was supposed to start leaving the Philadelphi corridor and all of Gaza on Saturday, the final day of the first phase. They were given eight days to fully withdraw from the corridor.

For Hamxs, having Israel leave the corridor is a must. They wouldn’t agree to any ceasefire that let Israeli troops stay there.

Israeli leaders have said lately that they think their army needs to stay in the Philadelphi corridor to stop weapons from being smuggled into Gaza from Egypt. Israel has already destroyed tunnels there to try to stop this.

Defense Minister Israel Katz recently told local leaders that he saw tunnels going under the border when he visited the corridor.

But not everyone agrees. Former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant disagreed with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who insists Israel must stay in the Philadelphi corridor and the Netzarim corridor (which splits Gaza into north and south) to keep the country safe and meet military goals.

Back in August, Herzi Halevi, who was then the head of Israel’s army, said holding onto Gaza or the Philadelphi corridor shouldn’t be a reason to ruin a possible deal with Hamas. He believes the army can handle things even if Israel leaves Gaza and gives up control of the corridor.
The first part of the ceasefire ends this Saturday.
