“Oct 7 2023”

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) has responded to growing criticism being expressed by senior U.S. officials regarding the number of civilian casualties suffered by Palestinians throughout Israel’s ongoing war against the Hamas movement in the Gaza Strip.

While President Joe Biden and his administration have repeatedly expressed their support for Israel’s efforts to eliminate Hamas in the wake of the group’s unprecedented October 7 surprise attack, top figures such as Vice President Kamala Harris and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin have suggested their ally was not doing enough to mitigate the harm being inflicted upon civilians.

Hamas’s battle plans for its attack on Israel on October 7 show that the terrorists were more ambitious than realised, according to evidence gathered by the Israeli military and disclosed on Monday.

Instructions and maps found on Hamas fighters killed in the attacks and in later raids in Gaza suggest that military bases deep inside Israel were among the targets.

The plans, some found on laptop computers taken from terrorists’ vehicles and others in notebooks and phones, give instructions to individual units. There are also booklets about weaponry including how to strike weak spots on Israeli tanks and armoured vehicles.

On Sunday night, hundreds of protesters took to the streets of Philadelphia to march in favor of Hamas, chanting slogans of intifada and calls to remove Jews from Israel “from the river to the sea.” In other words: It was, alas, a pretty typical night for a pro-Palestinian rally in the post-10/7 world. That is until the protesters, on the march, decided to stop by the falafel restaurant Goldie, mass together outside its entrance, and shriek “GOLDIE, GOLDIE, YOU CAN’T HIDE, WE CHARGE YOU WITH GENOCIDE.” The restaurant’s crime? Its owner, Michael Solomonov, is an Israeli-born chef based in Philadelphia, and is donating the store’s proceeds to a medical charity for victims of the Hamas attacks.

Since Hamas’s attack on Israel on 7 October, the West’s identitarian elites have tied themselves in knots. The atrocities of that day ought to have challenged their simple-minded view of the world, in which Israel is always the evil aggressor and Palestinians are always the virtuous victims – even when they are Hamas murderers. But that hasn’t happened. Instead, the purveyors of identity politics, especially in the media, have doubled down. Many have gone out of their way to diminish the suffering of Israelis, while excusing the crimes of Hamas.

Ibrahim Dremali stated in 2021 interview that Hamas was planning a “strong surprise.”

Following the October 7 Hamas assault on southern Israel, reports came out claiming that Hamas had been planning the brutal attack for three years. This puts the spotlight on a South Carolina Muslim leader, Ibrahim Dremali, who, during a live interview, stated that Hamas was planning a “strong surprise” involving new rockets he said Hamas had obtained. If Dremali did know about this far-reaching act of terrorism – an act that included American abductions – perpetrated by a group found on the US terror list and whom he has a relationship with, prior to the attack taking place, this would make him an accessory to the crime in need of facing justice.

Link fixed

Israeli investigators probing the fallout of the brutal October 7 attacks have found evidence that men as well as women suffered sexual violence and rape at the hands of Hamas and Islamic Jihad attackers, activists have claimed.

Yael Sherer, a spokeswoman for Israel’s Survivors of Sexual Violence advocacy group, said there was physical evidence as well as eyewitness accounts of sexual violence perpetrated against both sexes amid the attacks.

‘There was sexual violence and rape in these communities in the south of Israel… we have a few living survivors – not a lot – of both genders. It didn’t only happen to women, it happened to men as well,’ she told BBC Radio 4.

As Israel’s ground offensive expands across the Gaza Strip, the NDP is urging the Liberals to immediately create special immigration measures to help Palestinian-Canadians reunite with family members from Gaza.

The measures would facilitate the evacuation of extended family members of Canadians and permanent residents in Gaza.

The Hamas-controlled territory has been targeted with Israeli airstrikes and a ground offensive since the Oct. 7 Hamas attacks, which killed roughly 1,200 people.

Just what we need more Hamas supporters.

Since October 7, when Hamas terrorists invaded southern Israel and massacred at least 1,200 and kidnapped another 240 Israelis and people of other nationalities, the United Nations has been acting as the unofficial propaganda arm of the Iranian-backed Hamas terrorist organization.

The propaganda campaign’s main aim – besides smearing Israel – appears to be to build overwhelming international pressure on Israel to agree to an indefinite ceasefire , which will give Hamas the needed time to regroup and replenish to continue its terrorist activities and to avoid being eliminated by the Israeli Defense Forces.

LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — Las Vegas police and the FBI thwarted a potential terror plot involving a 16-year-old, police said Friday.

During a news conference, Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department officials detailed an investigation into a terror threat on a social media platform. The image of the threat was shown by LVMPD officials.

You might not know his name but you’ve probably seen his face. Saleh Aljafarawi is a known Hamas-linked influencer who has been all over social media where he praises Hamas, pretends to be a journalist, hospital worker, and pretty much anything to get sympathy for Palestinians. But despite what was known about Aljafarawi, PolitiFact came to his defense on Thursday to quibble over his being described as a “crisis actor” by those who know his connection to Hamas.
