How Hamas Is Exploiting the Trump Plan
to Maintain Control of Gaza

For Hamas, US President Donald J. Trump's peace plan, announced in early October, is evidently nothing but a temporary ceasefire, or hudna, that should be exploited to ensure that the terror group, with the help of Qatar and Turkey, expands its political and military control over the Gaza Strip. The terror group, however, has not been facing any difficulty in hunting down Palestinians suspected of "collaboration" with Israel or those who dared to criticize Hamas during the war. Hamas, in addition, is not in a hurry because it has a serious problem with phase two of the Trump plan, which requires the terror group to lay down and decommission its weapons.

We all knew any peace treaty with Hamas savages was BS right from the start. Next they will want us to pay to reconstruct their tunnels.

Thought Hamas would have been wiped out of Gaza by now. I never expected Israel to wipe Hamas off the face of the Earth, but I did expect them to remove Hamas from Gaza. What went wrong? Did someone stop them or did it turn out Israel was not capable of doing that?

Re #2 - I think part ion the fault lies with Trump and his anger at the September 9th Israel attack on Hamas leaders in Qatar - as per the 60 Minutes interview of Hard Kushner and Steve Wittkoff. I think Netanyahu had/has every right to go after Hamas Leaders wherever they live (in luxury I might add). It's their neighborhood - not ours. see: https://www.jns.org/60-minutes-of-misplaced-schadenfreude/

They cannot be wiped out because the Palestinians = Hamas and the world will not allow the anialation of the Palestinians/Gazans.

Kill ALL Hamas. No prisoners. This is the only hope to fix this situation. Any live Hamas will wreck everything, always.

Lucy is getting very tired of yanking the football off the tee and I know Charlie Brown has thrown his hip out by now, yet we watch the same cartoon year after year. Everybody involved in the peace plan did their part except for Hamas.

Trump’s not stupid. He knew this was a probability from the beginning. He built a coalition of leaders who now have their names stamped on this. Time for Plan B.

Ridiculous headline from this Zionist mouthpiece. Every charge levied against Hamas can be levied against Netanyahu. If the US admin can allow an unelected piece of scum run Ukraine, why not the last elected group of scum in Gaza? Must be Bibi's billionaires paying off everyone. All those condos on the beach and all that gas underneath is just so appealing. We are Bibi's pawns.

The Schumer Shutdown has been going on for more than a month now. It started on October 1, and the Senate won't even be able to have another vote on it until Tuesday at the earliest. The extended shutdown is raising concerns, particularly about funding for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and how it may be impacting air travel. Fox News Channel's Maria Bartiromo asked Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) on Sunday if he thought the government would open this week, as the shutdown was "seriously impacting the U.S. economy."

Despite some setbacks, President Trump’s 20-point Gaza peace plan has been an unprecedented success because it quickly achieved its most important objective: the release of all live Israeli hostages held by Hamas. The U.S. and its Arab allies are working hard to pressure Hamas to agree to implement the rest of the deal to achieve a lasting Middle East peace. Trump officials will also be pressing European states to fully support the plan and not undermine it. The quick release of the Israeli hostages was considered impossible just a few weeks ago and reflected the high priority that President Trump and Prime Minister Netanyahu placed on quickly saving the lives -

NJ governor in final days of campaign: poll

The New Jersey race for governor is a dead heat, with 49% of voters supporting Democrat Mikie Sherrill and 48% backing Republican Jack Ciattarelli, a bombshell new poll revealed Thursday. When undecideds are pushed to say who they’re leaning toward, Sherrill’s lead increases by 1 point — 50% to 48%, the Emerson College/Pix 11/The Hill survey found. The poll is a boost for Ciattarelli in the final days of the campaign — showing he has wiped out the 20-point lead that Sherrill boasted this summer. The race is so close that turnout will likely decide the outcome.

Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates agrees with Townhall. Wow, who thought we'd ever be able to say that? In a new memo, Bill Gates appears to have done a 180 on climate change and abandoned his climate alarmism. The man who wrote "How to Avoid a Climate Disaster" just four years ago now says climate change "will not lead to humanity's demise." The leftist billionaire is now rejecting the doomsday predictions from the likes of Sen. Bernie Sanders, Rep.

Zohran Mamdani, the radical Muslim socialist running for New York City mayor is twisting religion to manipulate voters into supporting him. Multiple recent posts portrayed purported Christian (and Jewish) leaders affirming Mamdani, but any Christian supporting a socialist like Mamdani has no business being in spiritual leadership. Mamdani wants you to believe Jews and Christians love him. Jews for Racial & Economic Justice, a far-left political advocacy group that does not represent all Jews, has been shilling for Mamdani on social media, posting a video this week with three female rabbis and a dude with hot-pink lipstick, all wearing Mamdani T-shirts, speaking to fellow Jews.

WASHINGTON — Democrats are bracing for the possible retirement of Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi, one of the party’s most powerful, popular and effective leaders, who served as chief antagonist to President Donald Trump during his first term and has quietly counseled Democrats as they take on Trump in his second term. She is expected to make an announcement about her future after Tuesday’s elections, when voters will consider a ballot measure, known as “Proposition 50,” that would redraw the state’s congressional lines. Pelosi is a prominent proponent of the plan, which Democrats hope would net them several seats in next year’s midterm elections.

Dick Cheney, who died on Monday, was one of the most prominent and polarizing Republican vice presidents in history -- and in recent years a blunt-spoken critic of Donald Trump. Dick Cheney and his daughter, former Republican Rep. Liz Cheney, voiced their opposition to Trump after his push to deny the 2020 election results and the pro-Trump mob attack on the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. In 2024, Dick Cheney and Liz Cheney endorsed Democrat Kamala Harris over Trump. "In our nation’s 248-year history, there has never been an individual who is a greater threat to our republic than Donald Trump. He tried to steal the last election using lies

The Vatican’s doctrinal office said Tuesday the titles of “Co-Redemptrix” and “Mediatrix” are not appropriate ways to describe Mary’s participation in salvation. In “Mater Populi Fidelis” (“The Mother of the Faithful People of God”), the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith (DDF) said when an expression requires frequent explanation to maintain the correct meaning, it becomes unhelpful. “In this case, the expression ‘Co-redemptrix’ does not help extol Mary as the first and foremost collaborator in the work of Redemption and grace, for it carries the risk of eclipsing the exclusive role of Jesus Christ,” according to the doctrinal note, released Nov. 4.

Bill Gates should wear a “Trump was right about everything” hat to next month’s COP30 climate talks in Brazil as a sort of scarlet letter after his backflip on climate change. “Climate change is not the biggest threat to the lives and livelihoods of people in poor countries, and it won’t be in the future,” is the billionaire climate activist’s new line. Gates finally got to the right answer but not before doing immense damage as one of the most influential and well-heeled backers of a global scam to hijack science and scare the bejeesus out of a generation.
