At least 27 people have been killed in fierce clashes between Hamas security forces and armed members of the Dughmush family in Gaza City, in one of the most violent internal confrontations since the end of major Israeli operations in the enclave.
Masked Hamas gunmen exchanged fire with clan fighters near the city’s Jordanian hospital, witnesses said.
A senior official in the Hamas-run interior ministry said security units surrounded them and engaged in heavy fighting to detain them. The ministry said eight its members were killed in “an armed assault by a militia”.
Hamas is out to murder any opposition.
This is the proper method to deal with officious little tyrants in uniforms. https://t.co/g1ooAZxnbA

Sdrerot, Israel — Their appearance on this stage, after two years of unending agony, penetrated the soul of this country. They did not hide their compassion and empathy for the hostages, as well as Israelis and Palestinians. They acknowledged the carnage and spoke eloquently of their commitment to do everything possible to end it. Everywhere.
When Witkoff took the stage, he began by mentioning “Prime Minister Netanyahu.” For several minutes, many in the crowd booed and shouted, “Shame! Shame!”

The Israeli military says 20 living hostages have been released by Hamas and have returned to Israel. Until Monday, 48 hostages were still being held in Gaza, although some are believed to be dead.
All but one of the hostages were among the 251 people abducted during the Palestinian group’s attack on southern Israel on 7 October 2023, during which about 1,200 other people were killed.

‘Long and painful nightmare finally over,’ Trump tells Israel’s parliament
US President Donald Trump has told cheering Israeli lawmakers that “the long and painful nightmare is finally over”, after helping to broker a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas in Gaza.
During the first such address by a US president since 2008, Trump said the day would mark “the moment that everything began to change, and change very much for the better” in the Middle East.
Trump’s address to the Israeli parliament, the Knesset, comes on the day that the last 20 living hostages held in the Palestinian enclave were released by Hamas.
"Managed decline" they call it.

OTTAWA – The Liberal government’s efforts to revise Canada’s national security strategy hit a snag when it became clear earlier this year that many of the assumptions underlying the work were “no longer valid,” a newly released memo reveals.
John Hannaford, the Privy Council clerk at the time, told Prime Minister Mark Carney in the memo that “changes to Canada’s strategic environment” meant work on a draft of the document was based on outdated premises.

A study is just the latest to suggest that telling people they are about to experience offensive content does not seem to change their behaviour — and could even make them want to watch it.
Like catnip!
U.S. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth is unlikely to approve of the sight of a Canadian soldier’s authorized long hair and purple goatee.
Hegseth made it abundantly clear during a speech this week given in front of essentially all of the U.S. military’s top brass assembled in Quantico, Virginia that grooming standards in America’s military would be strict.
“No more beardos,” the former Iraq and Afghanistan war veteran told an auditorium packed with officers wearing dress uniforms with stacked decoration ribbons.
The federal Conservatives are ramping up criticism of the Liberal government’s spending on diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) initiatives, launching a petition that calls for an end to what they describe as “billion-dollar bureaucracies” at a time when Canadians face record-high living costs.
The petition, circulated this week, argues that Ottawa has directed more than $1 billion into DEI-related programs and administrative structures that Conservatives say amount to wasteful spending. The document claims the Liberal government has spent $1.049 billion on DEI bureaucracy “while Canadians struggle to make ends meet.”
The war in Gaza may soon be winding down, but the war against Israel and Jews won’t stop. A coordinated wave of boycotts, disinvitations, and street intimidation continues to target Israel and Jewish communities across Europe, North America, and Australia.
Nope. Islam compels its adherents to murder in the name of Allah.
Charlie Kirk was killed by a left that feels entitled to silence its enemies, by any means necessary.
American conservatives have experienced a range of emotions in recent years, starting with amazement – amazement at the hypocrisy of the left. How many times have we heard that US president Donald Trump’s attempts to reform universities threaten academic freedom? Many of the people making this accusation have run professors out of town for dissenting from campus orthodoxies, whether regarding ‘systemic racism’ or climate change. These new-found free-speech crusaders have required faculty to sign loyalty oaths to the cult of diversity. At best, Trump’s accusers stood by silently while such shunning and conformity enforcement occurred.
LONDON — As new details surface from MI5’s counter-intelligence probe into two men accused of gathering information on Conservative China-sceptic MPs, The Sunday Times reports that the White House has privately warned Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s government that Britain’s failure to prosecute the alleged Chinese spies could jeopardize U.S.–UK intelligence sharing within the Five Eyes alliance. U.S. officials told the paper that the abrupt collapse of the high-profile espionage case — involving parliamentary researcher Chris Cash and China-based academic Christopher Berry, who was reportedly intercepted returning to Britain with encrypted communications apps used exclusively by Chinese intelligence operatives — has shaken Washington’s confidence in London’s reliability on counter-espionage cooperation.
All 20 hostages still thought to be alive are expected to be released. Israel is expected to free about 2,000 Palestinian prisoners in return
