A Palestinian state would indeed also be a reward for the Palestinian-Nazis of Hamas, and an official message from the US to all people and the world that all that is required to obtain statehood is the murder of 1,200 civilians – the slitting of many of their throats and the beheading of many of them, the rape of their women and the kidnapping of hundreds of hostages.
The realignment plan was supposed to continue the Disengagement Plan, remember? • What does the spotlight do to former security establishment officials • And why has Hamas demanded a ban on Jewish visits to Temple Mount?
Israel believes Sinwar and his crew are still in Khan Younis and he has already walked dozens of kilometers underground since the fighting began. Presumably, he too knows that at some point he will make a mistake enabling Israel to reach him. Therefore, a decision was made to deepen operations in the city in the coming weeks rather than proceed as planned.
The word "unity" should return to the public discourse without quotation marks, together with the recognition of the essential role of our pioneers • 82 years have passed since the death of "Yair" • And a senator reports to the Roman Senate on the laws of the Jews.

It will likely set a whole host of conditions for the release of the rest of the captives it holds, including: the release of top terrorists from Israeli prisons, the IDF's withdrawal from Gaza border areas to the October 6 lines, an Israeli pledge to refrain from “ground invasions” and targeted killings, and international guarantees to launch a Gaza reconstruction program.
Italy's prime minister is once again beholden to the two-state paradigm • Ernst Cassirer teaches us how to cope with the gloom and doom of the tv studios • And what is the relationship between "Thou shalt not kill!” and “Thou shalt not murder.”
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu needs to instruct the Shin Bet, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant the IDF Intelligence Directorate, and the Foreign Ministry, to expose all of the incriminating information on UNRWA. So far there has been no high-level political discussion on “What is Israel’s policy toward UNRWA?” making such urgent discussion necessary.
Israel must strike directly within Iran, against the capabilities conferred by Tehran on its proxies in the region, while also taking further action against the Quds Force.
