Documents from Gaza show Hamas’s ‘direct involvement’ with aid flotilla, Israel claims

Hamas documents recovered by Israeli troops in Gaza allegedly reveal the terror group’s “direct involvement” in an activist mission currently sailing dozens of boats to challenge Israel’s blockade of the Strip, Israel’s Foreign Ministry said on Tuesday. In a statement, the ministry claimed that the documents “show a direct link between the flotilla leaders and the Hamas terrorist organization,” especially the group’s foreign arm, the Palestinian Conference for Palestinians, or PCPA. The PCPA ‏was established in 2018, and according to Israel, “functions as Hamas’ representative body abroad, operating de facto as Hamas’ embassies.” PCPA was designated by Israel as a terror group in 2021, due to its being a Hamas arm…The 47-boat flotilla is currently some 150 nautical miles from Gaza, according to the organizers, and is set to reach the Strip this week. It is carrying dozens of activists, including Swedish campaigner Greta Thunberg. READ MORE

IDF Oct. 7 probe finds IDF failed to defend Kibbutz Gevim, terrorists failed to infiltrate kibbutz

While Hamas was unsuccessful in its attempt to infiltrate Kibbutz Gevim during the October 7 massacre, the military failed in its mission to defend the kibbutz, according to the IDF’s findings released on Tuesday. The army’s probe found that the kibbutz’s emergency standby squad operated “optimally” throughout the events, which allowed for the continued defense of the kibbutz until organized military forces arrived on October 8. Singling out the efforts of the kibbutz’s security coordinator, the IDF said that he was able to return fire against the terrorists trying to infiltrate the kibbutz, disrupting their efforts, despite being severely wounded. The investigation noted that a group of eight Hamas terrorists had attacked the kibbutz. READ MORE

This is what Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu probably won’t say when he addresses the United Nations General Assembly on Friday, but should.

.. You call yourselves the “United Nations,” but there is nothing united about you. Dictators sit alongside democrats, terror sponsors sit alongside their victims, and human rights abusers sit in judgment of those who defend freedom. This hall, more often than not, does not unite the nations of the world; it divides them, distorts them, and drags them down. The founders of this body dreamed it would prevent the scourge of war and safeguard the dignity of all people. Instead, it has become a playhouse where the persecutors outvote the persecuted. The “united” in the name “United Nations” has become a farce — unless, of course, you’re united in your baseless hostility toward Israel. READ MORE

“If Qatar really wanted to end the Gaza war, it could have done so long ago. Qatar could have issued an ultimatum to the Hamas leaders in Doha to release all the Israeli hostages kidnapped on October 7, disarm, and then cede political and military control of the Gaza Strip”

Qatar Must Apologize for Supporting Islamist Terrorist Groups
Khaled Abu Toameh
October 2, 2025

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has reportedly “apologized” to his Qatari counterpart for violating the Gulf state’s sovereignty in Israel’s September 9 strike against Hamas leaders in Doha. The alleged apology took place in a September 29 phone call arranged by US President Donald J. Trump. If anyone needs to apologize, it is Qatar, which has long been financing, hosting, and advocating for Hamas and other Islamist terror groups such as the Islamic State (ISIS) and Al-Qaeda. Qatar, in fact, needs to apologize not only to Israel, but to several Arab countries affected by the Gulf state’s support for Islamist terror groups...Qatar is not – and never was – an impartial mediator in the Hamas-Israel war. As a longtime sponsor of the Muslim Brotherhood and other Islamist terrorist groups, Qatar’s main goal is to ensure that Hamas, possibly under a different guise, continues to play a key role in the Palestinian arena.

Among the planes that attacked Iran’s nuclear facilities this summer was an old and antique F-15 that the Americans transferred to Israel mainly for spare parts

The plane that came back from the dead and stunned the world

“One man’s trash is another man’s diamond.” This old proverb found new life in Operation Rising Lion, when a refurbished F-15, nicknamed the “Man of Steel”, stunned the US military by being among the first planes to attack Iran’s nuclear and missile facilities. Once destined for the scrapyard, this one time American fighter jet was reborn through the grit and ingenuity of Israel’s Air Force technicians-both conscripted and reserve forces, directly affecting all of the Israeli Air Force’s moves, and the outcome of the war. The story begins over seven years ago, when the US Air Force handed over seven aging F-15s to Israel. Built in the late 1970s, these aircraft had logged tens of thousands of flight hours and participated in numerous American military operations. Four arrived by air, three by sea, and all were intended to be dismantled for spare parts,never to fly again. READ MORE

Apple TV+ postpones a Jessica Chastain thriller inspired by secretive ADL unit

September 26, 2025

Apple TV+ has delayed the release of “The Savant,” a show starring Jessica Chastain that puts a spotlight on the secretive division within the Anti-Defamation League charged with infiltrating online hate groups to stop real-world violence. Originally set to begin streaming Friday, the series was postponed without an explanation, but The New York Times reported that the company hesitated to move forward with the premiere in the wake of conservative pundit Charlie Kirk’s assassination earlier this month and the charged political atmosphere that has followed. The assassination took place the same day as a school shooting in Colorado, allegedly by a gunman whose online activity had been flagged by an ADL extremism monitor — and as federal funding cuts have challenged the extremism monitoring sector.

His announcement came after the ADL faced right-wing backlash for its web pages on the Christian Identity movement and Turning Point USA, the group founded by slain MAGA activist Charlie Kirk.

Why Israel can’t just “wrap up this war”
Karen Bekker
September 22, 2025

My colleagues at CAMERA and I have spent the past two years responding to a tsunami of lies about Israel, beginning in the immediate aftermath of October 7, 2023, with the claim that Israel caused the attack on itself. Then there was the claim that Israel attacked Al Ahli hospital, killing hundreds of people; the claim that Israel intentionally targeted World Central Kitchen aid workers; the claim that Israeli snipers were shooting Palestinian children in the head; and the starvation and genocide libels, including the absurd claims that 83 percent of casualties were civilians and that 14,000 babies were imminently about to die of starvation. It’s exhausting. It would be tempting for me to say that no one wants Israel to end the war more than I do. But I’m pretty sure that every single IDF soldier fighting in Gaza, not to mention the wives and mothers of those soldiers, wants Israel to conclude a lot more than I want it. Certainly, those with actual skin in the game want that more than Megyn Kelly, who said on her September 16 podcast that “Israel needs to wrap up this war.

The Trump administration intends to prevent FIFA from banning Israel’s national soccer team before the 2026 World Cup, according to a report from Sky News. UN advisory experts this week urged the global and European soccer bodies to suspend all Israeli teams because of the war in Gaza. As Israel’s men’s team attempts to qualify for next year’s World Cup in the US, Canada, and Mexico, FIFA has not yet responded to the UN rapporteurs. The US government, through Secretary of State Marco Rubio, has intervened directly to stop sanctions. READ MORE

An independent South Yemen would join the Abraham Accords and establish relations with Israel, senior anti-Houthi Yemeni official Aidaros al-Zubaidi said in an interview with UAE state media outlet The National. Zubaidi, who is president of the Southern Transitional Council, a South Yemen separatist movement, and deputy chairman of the anti-Houthi government, the Presidential Leadership Council, spoke to the outlet on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly in New York City on Wednesday. He told them that before the Israel-Hamas War started, the STC was “advancing towards joining the Abraham Accords.” READ MORE

“Save for a few courageous souls, this deeply troubled and inept organization has become the United Nations of Jew-Haters”

The United Nations hates Jews

The United Nations Security Council scheduled an “emergency” meeting on Gaza for Tuesday — the very day of Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year. This meant that Israeli diplomats and Jewish UN staff could not attend one of the most consequential discussions about Israel because it coincided with one of Judaism’s holiest days. Israeli Ambassador to the UN, Danny Danon, wrote to the rotating Security Council president, requesting to reschedule this meeting, but his request was ignored. The symbolism could not be clearer: The world body that never misses a moment to pass judgment on Israel scheduled its judgment at a time when Jews could not even be present to defend themselves. Opening the General Assembly that same Tuesday, UN Secretary-General António Guterres declared that “the horrors are approaching a third monstrous year” in Gaza. He accused Israel of carrying out disproportionate “collective punishment” and making “decisions that defy basic humanity.” READ MORE

JPOST Danny Danon: The UN is entertaining dangerous Palestinian adventurism Instead of allocating equal resources and attention to all major crises worldwide, like the ongoing war in Ukraine or the humanitarian disaster in Sudan, the General Assembly is about to make a dangerous spectacle out of entertaining Palestinian adventurism, with no regard for the violent actors driving the Palestinian cause…Historical amnesia has kicked in. Nearly two years after this horrific atrocity, the assembly has yet to pass a formal, unequivocal condemnation of Hamas. This moral vacuum sends a chilling message to the world: that terrorism and mass murder can be ignored, even legitimized, for the sake of political expediency.

THE INVESTIGATIVE PROJECT Andrew Fox: Who Was Really Behind the Recognition of Palestine One striking pattern emerged on Sunday: within minutes, progressive-led governments in Canada, the UK, and Australia all recognised a Palestinian state, a policy long championed by the far left but historically resisted by the political mainstream. The coordination was palpable.

JPOST 71% of French, 87% of UK public against Palestinian state recognition without Hamas conditions Over two-thirds of French citizens and almost 90% of the British public don’t support their governments’ expected moves this week to recognize a Palestinian state without preconditions, such as Hamas’s release of hostages and surrender, being met, according to two separate polls by the Representative Council of Jewish Institutions of France (CRIF) and JL Partners.

JPOST Milei to UN: Free Gaza hostages now, remember AMIA and embassy bombings Argentine President Javier Milei used his address to the 80th United Nations General Assembly on Wednesday to demand the “immediate release” of hostages still held in Gaza and to remind the world of Argentina’s own trauma from the 1992 bombing of Israel’s Embassy in Buenos Aires and the 1994 AMIA Jewish community center attack.
