he Chinese Foreign Ministry declared its support on Wednesday for Egypt’s attempt to galvanize the Arab world into supporting a plan for the reconstruction of Gaza, intended to prevent President Donald Trump from taking the territory over. Much of Gaza is currently uninhabitable as a result of two decades of being under the control of the genocidal terrorist organization Hamas. Following Hamas’s brutal invasion of Israel on October 7, 2023, the country declared war on the group and attacked Gaza, seeking to destroy its terrorist infrastructure in the strip. As a result, much of Gaza requires significant reconstruction, a task...

Middle Eastern countries are entirely right to oppose President Trump's plan to evacuate the Gaza Strip and resettle the Palestinians in nearby countries. I don't say this out of any sympathy for the Gazans. They have more than proven that they have no business running a state, no less a state next to Israel--a country that the vast majority of Palestinians want to see wiped off the face of the Earth. Trump on Egyptians and Jordanians needing to take in Gazans as refugees (despite their long opposition to it): "I would like to see Jordan and Egypt take some of...

US President Donald Trump dug in his heels Monday over a controversial suggestion that large numbers of Gazans take refuge in Egypt and Jordan, shrugging off wall-to-wall opposition to the proposal from Arab leaders. Egyptian media on Tuesday cited government sources as saying that Trump and Sissi had yet to speak. If they did, Sissi’s office would issue a readout, the Egyptian officials told local media. The US president on Saturday floated the idea to “clean out” Gaza after more than 15 months of war between Israel and Hamas had reduced the Palestinian territory to what he called a “demolition...

The Terrorism Awareness Project previous printed his history of the "right-wing" influence on Islamic extremism, "The Nazi Roots of Palestinian Nationalism and Islamic Jihad."

Although many Nazis...

It appears that Kash has turned over records related to J6 pipe bombs to House Judiciary committee per request by Jim Jordan a few weeks ago. ... Wow, imagine that — actual records on the J6 pipe bombs finally making their way to the House Judiciary, and not just buried under "ongoing investigation" excuses. Props to Kash for doing what the DOJ and FBI should have done years ago. Funny how the "most secure election ever" crowd suddenly goes silent when real evidence starts coming out. Wonder how long before the media pretends this never happened or spins it as...

If the world is serious about ending Palestinian suffering, it must hold Arab rulers accountable for deliberately sustaining this conflict. For decades, Arab nations have positioned themselves as staunch supporters of the Palestinian cause, yet their actions suggest otherwise. Although they publicly denounce Israel and advocate for Palestinian rights, behind closed doors, many Arab leaders have systematically worked to prevent a permanent resolution to the Palestinian issue. Nowhere is this hypocrisy more evident than in the refusal of most Arab states — particularly Jordan — to integrate Palestinians, despite historical, demographic, and geopolitical realities that make Jordan the most viable...

In an angry letter addressed last week to Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH), chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, disgraced Fulton County DA Fani Willis wailed about the congressional committee purportedly "bully[ing]" her by investigating the affairs of her office. She suggested that he should be celebrating Black History Month instead. "Rather than honor and uphold the oath you took, you have chosen to expend your time attempting to bully me, which is a complete waste of your time," Willis wrote, according to a copy of the correspondence obtained by The New York Times. "Might I suggest that instead of attempting...

WASHINGTON — Jordan’s King Abdullah II said he would take in 2,000 Palestinian children from Gaza who are very sick or suffering from cancer, signaling new openness to a plan by President Donald Trump to drive a deal that would resettle the residents of the war-torn strip. Trump called the offer a “beautiful gesture” and said he believed “99%” that something could be worked out with Egypt, another regional partner that had bristled at the president's surprise plan. "We'll have some others helping," Trump added. Seated with Trump in the Oval Office, King Abdullah said they must ensure a plan...

Jordan’s King Abdullah II on Tuesday will be the first Arab leader to meet with President Trump at the White House. This time, it is shaping up to be more of a burden than a blessing, as the president weighs the possibility of reduced aid to sell him on his plan to resettle Gaza. Trump’s surprise proposal—for the U.S. to take over the Gaza Strip and develop it as an international destination while its residents are relocated—has shocked the Middle East, but he has continued to press the case, including saying in an interview aired Monday that Palestinians wouldn’t have...

More than a dozen ill-prepared migrants, including five children, were caught trying to illegally cross into Canada in below-freezing weather that could have claimed their lives, officials said. Alberta police intercepted four adults and five children from Venezuela who were trudging their suitcases through the snow in bone-chilling temperatures of minus-22 degrees Fahrenheit, The Guardian reports. Canadian Police Assistant Commissioner Lisa Moreland told reporters the group was found struggling in the snow and “incredibly cold” weather, which put their lives at risk. A second group of migrants — made up of six adults from Jordan, Sudan, Chad, and Mauritius —...

On the face of it, Trump’s plan for the US to occupy Gaza is not remotely feasible, but that could all be part of the president’s scheme. US President Donald Trump dropped a bombshell on Tuesday when he announced that the United States will take over the Gaza Strip for the foreseeable future. With his declaration, the president has once again thrown a diplomatic grenade into the Middle East conversation – not a particularly quiet region at the best of times and one beset by 15 months of war. The proposal – one that envisions the US developing Gaza, creating...

President Trump is starting on the right path, asking Jordan and Egypt to accept Palestinians from Gaza. Gazan civilians who want to establish an industry or business, work in one of the industries or provide services (doctors and medical providers, tailors, shoemakers, hair designers, etc.) in a community would be allowed to return. Israel Defense Forces would be on the border of the entire Gaza area to maintain overall security.
