And no media is covering this! Ordinary Gazans suffer from the Israeli occupation and Hamas occupation at the same time!

Today, Hamas imposed a new tax of around $3,500 per truck entering Gaza, calling it a “community contribution.”

Merchants will pass that cost on to consumers, forcing people in Gaza to pay even higher prices.

In July 2025, Egyptian authorities arrested Saeed Abdelrazek over his conversion from Islam to Christianity and are now seeking to charge him with “terrorism.”

Please keep Saeed in your prayers, along with all Christians across the Middle East who face persecution simply for following Jesus Christ.

May God strengthen them, protect them, and grant them peace and courage in the face of persecution. ✝️

I’m cosponsoring @JoaquinCastrotx’s Stop the Settlements Act to stop the illegal land grabs in Gaza and the West Bank. 

This bill will deploy sanctions to halt the construction of new settlements and stop the expansion of existing Israeli settlements on Palestinian land.

[Peter Sterne @petersterne]

Many on the left suspected this was the case, but it’s still wild to see the WSJ confirm it.

Needless to say, stripping the citizenship of opposition elected officials is really, really far down the road to fascism.

[Hamza @HowidyHamza]

In my latest piece on "NAZA" for @MEastUncovered that the problem with the pro-Israel establishment is that they imagine a word that stopped on October the 7th and that what happened on that day justified all that came after.

It's also worth saying that the atrocities of October 7 were horrific and inflicted real harm on Israelis. Saying so takes nothing away from what has happened since. There is now an extensive record of war crimes and crimes against humanity committed by Israeli forces in Gaza and the West Bank, and the scale of death, displacement, and destruction in Gaza has far exceeded that of October 7. One atrocity does not cancel out another. NAZA, through the testimony of Israelis who participated in the war, adds another account to that record.

Meanwhile, the Palestinian delegation was denied entry to the UN, while Al Jolani, a former al-Qaeda jihadist, and Iran’s President Masoud Pezeshkian were welcomed into New York to address world leaders in person.
Let that sink in.

One may have read the same title over a hundred times during the past year. Settler terrorists attacked Palestinian villages, set homes ablaze, and the army arrived. No arrests have been made, and then the scenario gets repeated the next week, if not the same week, in another village.
One can't think of a state's institution that's not complicit in these atrocities, from the government that empowers, backs and shields these terrorists from any sort of accountability to the army, who sometimes assists those rioters or arrests the same Palestinians who were attacked or, at best, does nothing while watching these groups terrorize an entire society, to the Israeli polic that never shows up and the list goes on.

We can talk all the time about how those are just small terrorist groups within the settler community, but we should also talk about how most of the state's institutions are complicit in this campaign to ethnically cleanse the Palestinians from their homes and villages.

[Ihab Hassan @IhabHassane]

Hundreds of civilians, including children, were murdered by Hamas terrorists on October 7.

But of course, a guy with a red triangle next to his name compares those civilians to Nazis because he can’t find any other way to justify his support for terrorism.

[Ihab Hassan @IhabHassane]

It’s true. It’s crazy that you can get attacked here for saying even the most uncontroversial things.

But I’m grateful to this platform for helping me meet some wonderful human beings, and you’re one of them, Ami.

Palestinian dictator Mahmoud Abbas has postponed the elections scheduled for November 28 this year to September 11 next year.

Presidential and legislative elections are now scheduled for the same day. Most likely, when that date approaches, they will find another excuse to cancel or postpone them again.

The postponement was agreed upon with Hamas and Islamic Jihad—terrorist groups that should not even be allowed to participate in elections, yet get to decide when Palestinians can elect their leaders.

The Palestinian Authority and Fatah have once again proved how useless they are. When people were waiting for them to stand on their side, they chose to side with terrorists instead.

[Ihab Hassan @IhabHassane]

Hamas terrorists have released Palestinian activist Eyad Jundya Abu Hammam after torturing him so severely that they broke his jaw and leg.

This is what Hamas does to Palestinians in Gaza who dare to speak out against them.

Eyad was kidnapped by Hamas militias and subjected to horrific torture for over a week. He now needs immediate medical treatment.

Over the past three years, Hamas has tortured and murdered Palestinians and shot others in the legs for opposing them. Yet many of the loudest voices in the so-called pro-Palestine movement have remained silent about these horrific attacks on activists in Gaza.

[Ihab Hassan @IhabHassane]

BREAKING: Hamas has issued a statement praising Mahmoud Abbas’s decision to postpone the elections until next year.

[Ihab Hassan @IhabHassane]

Radical leftists in the West who present themselves as “pro-Palestine” have stood with Hamas, the Houthis, Hezbollah, Iran’s Islamic regime, and Assad.

What happened to standing with oppressed people—the civilians these groups and regimes have terrorized, including Palestinians?

[Ihab Hassan @IhabHassane]

Exactly a year ago today, the so-called ceasefire took effect.

The bombing of Gaza has not stopped since.

[Ihab Hassan @IhabHassane]

I’m not sure how we can keep asking the world for a two-state solution while our own leaders cannot even hold elections.

How did we reach a point where Hamas terrorists get to decide when Palestinian elections will be held? They should be behind bars for their terrorism, not running in elections.

Palestinians’ future cannot remain hostage to dictators and armed militias.

[Ihab Hassan @IhabHassane]

Israeli settler terrorist Elisha Yered posted videos and photos of the goats after they had died, claiming Palestinians had poisoned them.

But they were caught on camera staging the entire incident.

[Ihab Hassan @IhabHassane]

A horrific video shows the moment Houthi terrorists’ missiles struck Riyadh Airport yesterday, killing 12 people.

This is terrorism, plain and simple.

[Ihab Hassan @IhabHassane]

An IDF soldier to Palestinians and Israeli activists: "Jews have a right to everything before Arabs in this country.... that's what my commander said."

He said this while blocking Palestinians from accessing their land for the olive harvest.

@IhabHassane @ori_goldberg so sorry to hear this. My condolences to you and his family.
