Hundreds of Gazans took to the streets of Khan Younis, cursing Hamas, demanding the war end — while under Israeli bombardment, while starving, while displaced, while knowing exactly what Hamas does to those who speak.
They knew the risks. Hamas has tortured, disappeared, and executed people for far less.
And still, they marched — because silence became more unbearable than fear.
And yet, where were the voices of the so-called “human rights defenders”?
The public figures who built platforms off Gaza’s suffering?
The activists who post every day about liberation — until it’s Gazans liberating themselves from Hamas?
Silent.
Not a post. Not a word. Not a single tribute to the courage it takes to rise up against a terrorist regime *while bombs are falling.*
Do you have any idea how many Gazans were tortured — how many are still missing — just so their voices could maybe reach you?
How many more need to be broken, buried, or brutalized before you're willing to listen?
You don't get to ignore them just because they shattered your neat little narrative.
And you don’t get to call yourself an ally if their courage makes you uncomfortable.
If you only care about Gaza when it fits your script — you were never with Gaza to begin with.

So I woke up a day late to find out Hamas — the group responsible for Gaza’s destruction — is now demanding a Trump handshake and a personal American guarantee as part of the ceasefire deal.
This from the same people who launched a war they can’t end, lost control of half the Strip, and left millions homeless — yet still believe the world owes them political rituals and diplomatic theater.
You'd think after turning an entire strip into rubble, they'd show an ounce of humility.
But no — they’re still playing statesmen in their fantasy republic of tunnels, ruin and Qatari hotels.

BREAKING: Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich announced today that Gaza civilians will receive "a pita and a plate of food — and that is it."
This is calibrated deprivation — a policy designed to keep people hovering just above starvation, while framing it as humanitarianism.

38,000 children orphaned. 13,901 women widowed—by the war in Gaza. In a place where institutions no longer exist, there are no systems left to care for them. No schools, no welfare, no psychological support. Just grief stretching into the unknown

For the second day, Hamas-linked Telegram channels are urging civilians in Gaza to ignore evacuation orders and stay in areas under heavy fire.
They offer no safe routes, no protection, no alternatives—just instructions to remain in the line of fire. After dragging people into a war they didn’t choose, Hamas now insists they stay and die in it.

Islamist groups have unleashed their propaganda machines against the Jordanian government, accusing it of profiteering from the humanitarian aid delivered to Gaza. These attacks come in the wake of Jordan’s crackdown on the Muslim Brotherhood, including the arrest of several of its operatives and the official ban on the organization. Like the UAE, Jordan has been able to facilitate the delivery of aid—precisely because of its stable relations with Israel, something these groups can neither accept nor replicate.

Reports: Syria in secret talks with Israel to join the Abraham Accords, signaling a major regional shift.
Arab diplomacy is entering a new phase. The era of pan-Arab slogans is giving way to state-driven pragmatism, shaped by economic necessity and shifting alliances. Even Syria, once defined by isolation, is now testing the waters of regional reintegration. The foundations are shifting, and quietly, new rules are taking hold.
Normalization, in some cases, became a tool for expanding—not abandoning—regional influence. The UAE offered a clear example: it pursued ties with Israel while continuing to advocate for Palestinian statehood in diplomatic arenas where the issue was fading. Alongside reconstruction support and institutional aid, it used its access to maintain relevance on both sides of the divide. This wasn’t a withdrawal from the cause—it was a recalibration that opened doors others couldn’t reach.
As regional alliances shifted and new diplomatic frameworks emerged, some states moved quickly to secure their interests and influence the direction of the region. It was a moment when political leverage was not only possible—it was expected. Yet the Palestinian leadership remained disengaged. Instead of using the momentum to demand concrete concessions—on recognition, sovereignty, or long-term guarantees—they defaulted to rejection. The result was predictable: Palestinian priorities were sidelined, and a historic opportunity to shape the terms of engagement was allowed to pass, untouched.
Palestinians are not on the margins of this region. From Gaza to Amman, Beirut to the Gulf, our presence is rooted, generational, and integral. We are educators, professionals, business owners, and public servants. We are part of the region’s infrastructure—economically, socially, and politically. That position should be a source of leverage, not just identity.
This is not a moment for slogans. It is a time for strategic clarity. The region is being redefined by states that understand timing, interest, and diplomacy. If Palestinians are to remain relevant to that conversation, they must approach it with the same precision. Influence isn’t given. It’s negotiated—and only by those willing to step into the arena and use what they have to shape what comes next.

After everything Gaza has endured, the question is no longer why Hamas won’t surrender, but what exactly they're trying to protect.
It’s not Gaza—they’ve already sacrificed it. Entire neighborhoods have vanished. Institutions, homes, lives, all buried. The people they once claimed to defend are now trapped in a living nightmare, and still, no change in course.
Their refusal to surrender has nothing to do with protecting Gazans. That illusion has long collapsed. Their only goal now is to avoid accountability—not just for October 7, but for over two decades of authoritarian rule, political repression, and armed recklessness that has brought ruin upon millions.
They fear surrender not because it ends the war, but because it starts the reckoning. A reckoning for the lies, the prisons, the executions, the stolen aid, the silenced voices, and the generation that grew up between funerals and ruins.
This isn’t defiance. It’s evasion. And every day they stall, Gaza bleeds not for a cause, but for the cowardice of those too afraid to face their own people.
Freed hostages are now facing harassment online—targeted not for what they did, but for how they grieve, speak, or remain silent.
Ilana Gritzewsky receives hate messages daily.
Liri Albag was vilified after mentioning Netanyahu’s responsibility.
Edan Alexander and Omer Shem Tov were smeared for not expressing public gratitude.
Liat Atzili, widowed on Oct 7, was mocked for attending a memorial.
There’s a certain cruelty in demanding uniformity from people who’ve lived through horror.

Infant Khalid Al Zinaty was born into war and named after his brother, also killed in this war. This morning, he too was killed—alongside the last surviving members of his family—in Al-Mawassi, the so-called "safe humanitarian zone" in Khan Younis.

The Wall Street Journal revealed internal Hamas documents showing that Hamas Wanted to Torpedo Israel-Saudi Deal With Oct. 7 Attacks.
Riyadh’s condition was clear: no normalization without a path to Palestinian statehood. Hamas lit that path on fire—not to save the cause, but to stay on top of its ruins.
The European Hospital in Khan Yunis, southern Gaza has been forced to shut down after relentless Israeli strikes, cutting off critical treatment for 10,000 cancer patients. Also, as of today, northern Gaza has no functioning hospitals left—an absolute breakdown of medical care amid ongoing devastation.

Erdogan logic 101:
The PKK must disarm immediately and disappear—today, not tomorrow!
Also Erdogan: Hamas? No no, they’re heroic freedom fighters, how dare you ask them to lay down arms?
Apparently, terrorism is bad unless it serves his foreign policy.
Day 68. Israel's government blocks aid. Gaza starves.
Children are dying from hunger. Others lie still, too weak to cry. Their mothers can do nothing but watch. Food isn’t scarce — it’s blocked.
Israel's government closed the crossings and turned starvation into a strategy. While aid is stuck in planning and promises, children are buried instead of fed.
"Gaza as it (barely) stands is a place with no political name. Not formally reoccupied, but increasingly under Israeli military control. Not liberated, but with no real governing authority. Not entirely destroyed, but profoundly uninhabitable. A purgatory engineered by policy, perpetuated by design.
Gaza cannot be allowed to remain in permanent suspension, in a war that does not end. The U.S. must demand either a timeline for Israeli withdrawal—or that its ally accept its international legal obligations as an occupying force.
Without this, Gaza will remain unliveable and unfree; a place with no sovereignty, no peace, no place in the world".
