BEN GVIR TWEETED LAST NIGHT.:

Civilian Front – today we armed with long weapons standby squads in Bnei Brak and Acre. In the last week, the Ministry of National Security and the Israel Police armed hundreds of new standby units throughout the country and distributed thousands of weapons made by Blue and White all over the country.

And this, in addition to significant simplifications in the exams and the entry of hundreds of thousands of Israeli citizens into the circle of those entitled to personal weapons. The massive weapon reform that began when I took office and distributed about 24,000 licenses for life-saving weapons until the outbreak of the war continues with full force even now.

Beer Sheva is being armed tomorrow!
Our goal is to distribute thousands more weapons to the emergency rooms in the coming weeks.

At the same time, I call on everyone who is eligible, following the new tests, to get a license for a private weapon – submit an application and arm yourself.

Our western intelligence sources confirm:
Jordan’s kinglet has just allowed entry to hundreds of the Iranian controlled militiamen known as Al-Hashed Al-Shabi, who arrived at the borders yesterday embarking on a mission “to fight Israel at the Jordanian borders”. The first group… pic.twitter.com/TEz9b3BmFR

Whom are we zooming here, and why?

The signals being sent with President Biden’s visit to Israel on Wednesday may not be that mixed.  It remains to be seen.  But if they trend less mixed, we should be concerned that their purpose is to limit Israel’s options.

With little time tonight, I will concentrate on one aspect of the signal-sending.  There’s more than one pointing in the same direction, but other writers are covering those aspects very competently.  It’s the import of major U.S. naval movements that stands out to me and requires brief commentary.

To set the scene, here’s a look at a report out on 16 October that U.S. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin “warned Israel against an escalation against Hezbollah at this time.”

The truth behind the social media anti-Israel lies.Opinion.

(JNS) Since these false claims that Israel created Hamas or that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu supported Hamas are circulating across social media, let’s address them.

Hamas is an arm of the Muslim Brotherhood, an organization founded in Egypt in the 1920s, before the rebirth of the State of Israel, but which now has a presence in Israel and in much of the world. In its early days it coordinated with the Nazis and received support from Nazi Germany.

T. Belman. I totally disagree with Bob’s suggestion about turning over Gaza to Arab countries who would govern it along with the PA. Instead,  I want to push all Gazans to the southern 20% of Gaza and for Israel to annex the northern 8o%. And then to reject any Arab return.

To achieve its objectives in Gaza and secure the Jewish state, Jerusalem needs to turn the tables on Tehran.

“I’m driving south to the Gaza corridor, the place Hamas invaded on Saturday,” Yonah Jeremy Bob says in our first phone conversation. “But it’s a straight drive, so let’s talk.” Mr. Bob is an expert on the Israeli shadow war with Iran, the subject of his new book, “Target Tehran,” and he covers the Israeli intelligence agencies and military for the Jerusalem Post. He’s busy tracking down answers to the questions every Israeli wants answered: How could this have happened? What’s the plan? Who will pay? Read more…

57% of Gazans support Hamas, 71% have a favorable opinion of Islamic Jihad. Clearly, there are no “innocent” Palestinians in Gaza. Oped.

By Jonathan Pollard, INN    Oct 19, 2023, 9:39 PM (GMT+3)

As I listened to Secretary of State Anthony Blinken and President Joe Biden drone on about the need for us to allow an unmonitored humanitarian aid corridor to be created for the displaced Palestinians of Gaza, I was reviewing a recent poll of Gazans issued by the Israel Advocacy Movement. The results of the poll indicated that 57% of Gazans supported Hamas, while 71% had a favorable opinion of Palestinian Islamic Jihad. These numbers were then compared unfavorably to the 44% of Germans who voted for the Nazis. Clearly, there are no “innocent” Palestinians in Gaza.

Gaza boming 2023Atia Mohammed/Flash90

On Saturday morning, October 7, 2023, Israel was surprised by a Hamas attack. The terrorist organization managed to plan, train, and carry out a synchronized surprise strike, and IDF soldiers found themselves completely inferior to the flow of forces and the daring of Hamas.

Although we do not yet have all the details, it is clear that Hamas built very effective offensive operational capabilities. Hamas operated in a coordinated manner in a few locations, penetrated the Gaza barrier without opposition, overcame the second line of defense by taking over IDF camps, and carried out a killing spree while abducting soldiers and civilians to Gaza. It also captured military equipment and transferred it to the Gaza Strip.

President Biden recently condemned Hamas’ attack on Israeli civilians. “It’s abhorrent,” he said. “The brutality of Hamas’ bloodthirstiness brings to mind the worst rampages of ISIS.”

Our aged commander-in-chief must have forgotten the $6 billion in “humanitarian aid” he sent to Iran over the last month. Though the Biden administration is scrambling to freeze the transfer, it’s too late; Iran has already freed up its own funds to support terrorist activity.

HARD TO WATCH

By SAM FADDIS   OCT 18, 2023

Ever since Joe Biden sat down in the White House, he has pursued policies contrary to the interests of the American people and beneficial to our enemies. He has projected weakness. He has practiced appeasement. We have grown weaker. Those who wish us dead have grown stronger.

The corporate media has pretended this is not true. The Democratic Party has stood behind Joe even as he has placed the entire nation in jeopardy. The feckless GOP establishment has done nothing of consequence to push back.

The people of Gaza are a proud people.

Many don't want to leave, and shouldn't have to.

But for those displaced, who want to leave, there should be a worldwide refugee scheme.

“It appears, then, that the United States had a separate reporting stream it didn’t pass on to the Israelis…So now everyone is attempting to shift blame for the miscalculation of how messy the result would be, while leaving U.S. sponsorship for the author of the attack untouched.”

The D.C. blame game is about avoiding responsibility while protecting a policy that is written in blood

by Lee Smith, TABLET     October 16, 2023

The continuing proliferation of conflicting and contradictory stories leaked by U.S. intelligence services regarding what they knew—and, more importantly, didn’t know—about the planning for Hamas’ assault on Israel, is more than just a D.C. bureaucratic comedy act. Taken together, the profusion of leaks suggests there are people in offices and agencies across the Beltway who are worried they’ll be blamed for missing signals and human intelligence outlining plans for the largest one-day massacre of Jews since the Holocaust.

“As long as the United States, the United Nations, and other allegedly peaceful countries provide funds to Gaza, and as long as Hamas continues to direct Gaza’s treasury, it’s as if we peaceful westerners ourselves were the ones buying Hamas the weapons”

By John F. Di Leo

Whether you grew up watching reality law enforcement programs or fictional mafia movies, there’s one thing everyone knows: When a known hit man murders a stranger, the odds are at least ten to one that he was paid to do it. Find the person who paid him, and you’ve identified the real responsible party.

This doesn’t just go for individual crimes, either.  The same principle applies on the grand scale.

On Oct. 7, 2023, a horde of Islamofascist terrorists known as Hamas launched simultaneous, carefully coordinated attacks on Israel.
