Despite IDF operating in Gaza for more than a year, Hamas believes it is winning the war with its control of central Gaza. Recent reports indicate that Hamas has once again made a hostage deal impossible. This is because it continues to believe it is winning the war. This would seem impossible, given that the IDF has operated in Gaza for 14 months and cleared many areas of Hamas. However, the terrorist group is still in control of central Gaza, and this gives it leverage over Israel in relation to the various hostage talks. There are two reasons for this....

Two people have been arrested for felony child abuse after a one-month old baby was found abandoned wearing only a diaper in the freezing cold on Christmas Day. Christina Thurman, 33, and Jarvis Sims, 42, were detained by cops after the infant was discovered in a car seat near a median in northern Denver. The Colorado Adams County Sheriff's Office tracked them down later that day. The duo appeared expressionless in mugshots distributed by cops on Boxing Day. Deputies said they received a 911 call around 9.30am on Christmas morning from a passerby who discovered the abandoned baby boy on...

Shocking: “Tony Fauci made sure that none of these children had guardians. They were tortured in illegal experiments. When they died, their corpses were disposed of in an open pit covered by astro turf.” Now, as RFK Jr. prepares for a key role in the Trump administration, globalists like Fauci could face prosecution for crimes against humanity. A day of reckoning is coming. Justice will be swift, and a presidential pardon from Biden will not save him!

A young North Carolina woman was doused in gasoline and set on fire by a sick suspect who then fled — leaving her heartbroken mother wondering, “How could they do this to my baby?” Ashanti Downey, 20, was rushed to the emergency room the night of Dec. 16 with second-and third-degree burns down the right side of her body, according to WRAL News in Raleigh-Durham. Staffers at Central Carolina Hospital in Sanford called the Harnett County Sheriff’s Office at about 7 p.m. to report the horrific act, which happened as Downey walked along Highway 27 toward a Dollar General in...

Israeli politicians reacted on Friday to a terror stabbing in Herzliya that claimed the life of 83-year-old Holocaust survivor Ludmila Lipovsky. "Only monsters are capable of murdering an 80-year-old woman in cold blood," National Unity leader Benny Gantz said. He expressed his condolences to Lipovsky's family and praised the security personnel at the scene who "neutralized the terrorist and prevented others from being harmed." National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir said, "Once again, it has been proven that carrying a weapon saves lives," according to Ynet. Ben-Gvir added that the security officers who neutralized the terrorist would be rewarded.

Two Democrat legal experts are calling on Congress to take immediate action to prevent President-elect Donald Trump from taking office, citing Section 3 of the 14th Amendment. Evan A. Davis, the former editor in chief of the Columbia Law Review and David M. Schulte, the former editor in chief of the Yale Law Journal, called for Trump’s disqualification in an opinion piece for The Hill, citing Section 3 of the 14th Amendment. Davis is a New York City attorney and a former president of the New York City Bar Association. He worked on the U.S. House Judiciary Committee impeachment inquiry...

Russian President Vladimir Putin expressed unwavering confidence in Russia's triumph in its conflict with Ukraine, asserting that divine support is on Moscow's side. Speaking to reporters on Thursday after attending the Supreme Eurasian Economic Council (SEEC) meeting in St. Petersburg, Putin’s remarks stirred fresh debate amid ongoing speculation about US mediation efforts. When asked whether Russia would secure victory by 2025, Putin said, “I believe in God. And God is with us.”

Democratic New Hampshire Rep. Annie Kuster, who is retiring from Congress, claimed Trump “tried to kill” her on Jan. 6, 2021. Kuster — who has represented New Hampshire’s 2nd District since 2013 — told the Washington, D.C., outlet Roll Call on Monday that she had “always said I wasn’t going to stay forever” and that Trump “tried to kill me once.” “I was one of the last members of Congress in the gallery on Jan. 6, and as it turns out, we have the security footage that shows it was only 30 seconds from when I was able to evacuate...

This is going to be controversial to many, but I am going to tell it like I see it, so damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead. The Biden administration, set up as it was by the Obama administration, has been a clear and present danger to the United States of America. In almost every way imaginable. It has tanked an economy that otherwise was on the way to (an almost inevitable) rapid, post-pandemic recovery, causing pain to countless American families. Speaking of the pandemic, its ludicrous lockdown policy, and a host of other counterproductive and destructive policies, caused immeasurable physical,...

Radiation levels have dramatically increased in New York City after the “mysterious” drone sightings were discovered hovering around the East Coast in recent weeks. The new revelations result in officials warning Americans to “prepare for the worst.”

An illegal alien, reportedly released into the United States by President Joe Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS), is accused of driving drunk and causing a crash that killed 37-year-old Jimmy Chang, a well-known realtor in the suburbs of Atlanta, Georgia. Christian Fernando Irias-Ruiz, a 20-year-old Honduran national, has been arrested and charged with first-degree vehicular homicide, drunk driving, reckless driving, speeding, and possession of alcohol by someone under 21 years old. According to police, the crash occurred just days before Christmas when Irias-Ruiz allegedly drove drunk, ran a red light, and t-boned Jimmy Chang’s vehicle — killing him. A...

New Yorkers, beware the law of unintended consequences. From an item at the New York Post comes the news that Kathy Hochul has just signed a new bill, “modeled after a federal law that holds polluters responsible for abandoned toxic-waste sites,” which establishes the New York Climate Superfund. This endowment will be funded by energy companies that deal in gas, oil, and coal, and the money will finance “resiliency projects,” like initiatives to shore up the coast and mitigate flooding—because obviously as every progressive and mainstream media consumer “knows,” energy that comes from “fossil fuels” cause “climate change.” As of...

Anew report published by U.S. Sen. Rand Paul, R-KY, highlights more than $1 trillion worth of taxpayer money spent on projects that he argues wastes and abuses taxpayer money. Tucked in the report are three programs funded by federal agencies using millions of taxpayer dollars to experiment on cats. The details are explicit and gruesome.

During the night, northern Gaza continued to burn as more and more terror tunnels were demolished! You can't even begin to imagine the unbelievable amount of time, effort, and money that these psychopaths have invested in terrorism at the expense of the wellbeing of the people under their care. Again, jihadists aren't thinking like normal people. Therefore, let's stop talking to them as such. ✍️ @beholdisraelchannel https://t.me/beholdisraelchannel/47069 Several events in the past 12 hours !!!

Israel responded today to repeated attacks from Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthi rebels, pounding multiple sites in Yemen with airstrikes, including Sanaa International Airport. Will these latest strikes be enough to deter the Houthis or is the situation bound to escalate? And are Israel’s long1range missions in Yemen a dry run for a future attack on Iran’s nuclear weapons sites? Watch now!
