@SaraHunaidi I've got some GREAT news for you!! ... You'll be happy to hear that Palestine is free! 🥂 The Mandate for Palestine ended in 1948, with the birth of the State of Israel! Glad to have been of assistance.

The IRGC’s real goal isn’t forcing Israel to withdraw from Lebanon, it’s forcing Israel to surrender to Hezbollah.

They want to humiliate Trump, break the US-Israel alliance, and prove that challenging America pays off.

Closing the Strait of Hormuz and escalating in Lebanon are part of the same strategy: divide America from Israel.

Both Washington and Jerusalem must wake up to the real game being played.

Beautiful Irish-Israeli Kim Damti would have been 25 years old today. She was murdered by Hamas on October 7th.

May your memory be a blessing, Kim.

A shorter version of this Truth Social post is: some of these countries are pushing me really hard to sign a controversial deal with #Iran's regime, which entails the U.S. assuming risk. But I want something in return: them joining the Abraham Accords.

@simon_schama Hamas is an evil monster. I would qualify Ben Gvir as more of a racist buffoon / thug. Anyone who remains in a coalition with him is complicit in his acts of thuggery and diplomatic sabotage (their well-intentioned condemnations notwithstanding). Do the right thing @gidonsaar.

[Amit Segal @AmitSegal]

National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir is a reputational arsonist. Yesterday’s fire involved the minister visiting a detention center holding the latest batch of Gaza flotilla activists. There, he paraded around the bound and bowed detainees, waving the Israeli flag and blasting the national anthem.

Are the participants in this flotilla criminals and determined enemies of Israel? Yes.

Were some of the activists associated with ISIS? According to my sources, yes.

Should we shed a single tear for them? Absolutely not.

And were the embassies that summoned Israel’s ambassadors to reprimand them for Ben-Gvir’s actions the truest friends to begin with? No.

But despite all of that, what Itamar Ben-Gvir did is a complete scandal—for three reasons.

First, it is a brazen subversion of established policy. The government had already decided to deport these participants. Like it or not, that was the directive. For a minister to go rogue and hijack the situation reeks of cheap political theater—a desperate grab for attention that directly sabotages the government’s agenda.

Second, this stunt is the political equivalent of the Davidka, Israel’s notoriously loud but functionally useless mortar from the Independence War—all noise, zero payload. In practice, Ben-Gvir’s photo-op achieved absolutely nothing, yet the diplomatic bill is staggering. It runs on the exact same playbook as his poorly planned death penalty law for terrorists: it will likely never result in a single execution, but it guarantees that Israel suffers maximum international blowback and disastrous headlines. If the goal was deterrence, I’m highly skeptical of its effectiveness. I can think of few things more guaranteed to fuel an activist’s anti-Israel obsession and ensure their booking on the very next flotilla than a forced, front-row seat to Ben-Gvir’s cheap political theater.

Third, it actively sabotages vital, ongoing diplomatic efforts. Israel has been staring down the barrel of severe EU sanctions after losing the protective veto of Hungary’s Viktor Orbán. As Ben-Gvir was busy planning his stunt, Israel secured a critical victory: the Czech Republic agreed to step in and veto the sanctions in Hungary’s place. The Czech commitment has not been withdrawn, but why would one possibly want to make the lives of our diplomats and allies that much harder? Just as the international pressure was naturally defusing, Ben-Gvir dragged the world’s hostile glare right back onto Israel.

Yes, the detainees may be criminals. But to the rest of the world, they just see a vulgar politician—one already synonymous with everything critics hate about Israel, with a Hague arrest warrant hanging over his head—screaming at captives of unclear guilt.

I wish I could say it was an unfortunate mistake. But it was entirely by design.

[Zvika Klein צביקה קליין @ZvikaKlein]

As an Israeli, I am utterly ashamed and disgusted by Itamar Ben-Gvir’s pathetic, childish stunt.

The humiliating way he filmed and mocked detainees is a national disgrace.

This is not Israel. It’s damaging our soldiers and our country. Not in our name.

[Nikki Haley @NikkiHaley]

Claiming Israel trains dogs to rape Palestinians is modern day blood libel — propaganda pushed as more horrific details emerge about Hamas’ systematic torture on Oct. 7.

For being Jewish — Hamas raped a woman and burnt half of her face off in front of her husband; shoved nails, metal, and sharp objects into Israeli women; forced family members to sexually assault each other so that if they survived they would be traumatized by the sight of each other; raped corpses; the list goes on.

Distracting from these atrocities and smearing Israel while victims still fight for acknowledgment is sickening.

This is my reminder to everyone about how the islamic regime works:

Their strategy is to stall for time until both Trump and Netanyahu are gone. Even if they agree to a deal, they will abandon it as soon as they know they won't be attacked for doing so.

That's all there is.

[Jonnyboy @jj34]

@TousiTVOfficial Probably accurate.

@chanwalrus @Glinner @JerseyNoahx That was really acorny. It's not oak-kay to minimise this issue. If Graham wants to be a tree, that's treemendous. I wood definitely support that. Besides, I'm sycamore tree-related puns.

[Jonnyboy @jj34]

Thank you so much for this. You have no idea how much it means. Hopefully, in a not too distant future, we'll live in a society where there is no need to have these rallies.

The red pill they don’t want you to swallow:

The explosion of antisemitism after October 7 wasn’t “spontaneous outrage.”

It was a professionally run political campaign ... fully staffed, fully funded, and ready to launch the second Hamas finished slaughtering Jews.

Iran wasn’t just backing terrorists. Iran was the campaign manager. Qatar was the banker. China & Russia played co-chairs. Hamas and Hezbollah were the street muscle. And the entire alphabet soup of NGOs, nonprofits, and “charities” had their signs printed, their volunteers briefed, and their social media bots primed… while the massacre was still happening.

This wasn’t random hate. This was The Hidden Hand ... a coordinated information war executed with military precision.

Warren Kinsella just dropped the receipts. Everything you thought was organic student rage was actually engineered propaganda.

Read it. Share it. The illusion is over.
