Despite wall-to-wall media coverage of “peace” in the middle East, there is no peace. All the major terrorist groups have promised to continue fighting and have issued a statement in this regard. “We affirm continuing the resistance in all its forms” their statement said.
The signatories were Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad, and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine.
I am sorry to be the skunk at the dinner party, but these are the critical facts. “Blessed are the peacemakers” is a nice Biblical phrase but “peace” has not come to the Middle East.
The bizarre outcome, so President Trump can claim a successful “deal,” can be seen in the fact that Israel freed hundreds of cold-blooded Islamist killers of Jews from its jails, while it got back 20 living hostages and the others were returned dead. Our media referred to the Islamist killers as “Palestinian prisoners,” as if they were unfairly detained.
Daniel Greenfield reports in detail that 1,700 Islamic terrorists, and assorted murderers and rapists, are being freed as part of the Hamas deal.
Supporters of Israel are biting their tongues, not wanting to be critical in public of President Trump. But one told me in confidence that he thinks Trump’s treatment of Israel is “possibly worse than Biden plus Obama” when you consider that Secretary of War Pete Hegseth has now signed an agreement giving Islamists in the Qatar Air Force training in Idaho on how to fly F-15s. Qatar is the base of operations for Hamas, the terrorists who conducted the attempted genocide of the Jewish people that has not been seen since World War II.
Qatar also hosted and financed 9/11 mastermind, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, along with other terrorists.
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, who is currently in U.S. custody in Guantanamo Bay for acts of terrorism, lived and worked in Qatar but was allowed to leave for Pakistan as U.S. authorities were trying to apprehend him, according to the report of the 9/11 commission. He went to Pakistan and cut journalist Daniel Pearl’s head off. Pearl was kidnapped while investigating the al-Qaeda networks in the Middle East.
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed proudly confessed to a U.S. military tribunal that he decapitated with “my blessed right hand the head of the American Jew, Daniel Pearl.”
In the proclaimed “peace in our time” outcome announced by President Trump, it is significant that there are already reports that Hamas has retaken power in Gaza and is killing its political enemies.
The so-called “peace summit” in Egypt included “world leaders” such as “Palestinian President” Mahmoud Abbas, the head of the Palestinian Authority who is advertised as “moderate” but is a representative of Moscow. He was trained by the KGB at Russia’s Patrice Lumumba University and has referred to suicide murderers as “shahids (martyrs) who have entered the gardens of paradise.”
Again, at the risk of being the skunk at the dinner party, we must remember the fact that neither Hamas nor the Palestinian Authority have stated they will co-exist with Israel.
Trump has expressed hope that political normalization between Israel and the Arab states will occur, leading to a regional security arrangement, because of the war in Gaza being paused. Such an outcome depends on unprecedented Arab cooperation with Israel, overcoming anti-Israeli sentiment in the region and Moscow’s role in backing Iran and Islamic terrorism.
Some supporters of Israel have argued that the only solution is a Palestinian Removal Act, modeled after the Indian Removal Act in the United States, which stopped the Indians from murdering the American settlers and allowed the new nation to develop. That is the only way Israel can survive the efforts of the global Islamic world to destroy it. Israel faces genocidal opposition that can only be resolved by relocating the so-called Palestinians back to neighboring Arab/Muslim states.
But Arab nations do not want to accept the “Palestinians.”
A “new” Middle East cannot proceed without insisting on justice for the families of the victims of 9/11 and accountability from Qatar and Saudi Arabia. That means the death penalty for 9/11 terrorists such as Khalid Shaikh Mohammad and releasing all of the classified information about whether Saudi Arabia was directly involved in supporting some of the terrorists who attacked the United States on September 11, 2001.
Brett Eagleson, president of 9/11 Justice, has recently commented on a CBS News report implicating Saudi Arabia in the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
Trump may be making the same mistake that got him into the current mess with Communist China – thinking that economic cooperation will convince the communists to make peace with the West. Instead, the communists have turned on Trump through economic warfare conducted with strategic minerals — their own “Trump card” over Trump.
Over the weekend, Trump tried to reassure Wall Street, saying “it will all be fine” with China, sparking profit-taking on Wall Street on Monday, while objective observers are digesting a report from the defense software company Govini which found that, “From raw minerals to advanced weapon systems—from rock to rocket—there lies a reality: America’s military superiority increasingly depends on China.”
That means China is in a superior position and holds the important cards. The communists already stopped soybean purchases from American farmers in May, promoting talk of a bailout from Trump.
While events in the Middle East are a welcome distraction to many who are hopeful for peace, the Islamic world, except for a few nations, will not co-exist with Isreal, even with the promise of more economic deals from Trump and his family members.
Israel, of course, has been pressured to accept the deal, and Israel faces pressure from within, including the Communist Party of Israel, to recognize a Palestinian state.
A local Israeli communist declared, “It was only once Israel became too insane, chaotic and unstable to serve Trump’s imperialist interests that he decided to put an end to the bloodshed. A man who sends troops to invade his own cities and arrest and harass his own people, on top of his imperialist moves, certainly has not an ounce of care for either the Israeli or Palestinian people. Only a just peace, built on the two-state solution and complete self-determination for the Palestinian people, can bring stability and prosperity between the river and the sea, not the imperialist schemes of a demented narcissist and sexual predator.”
How is that for “peace breaking out” in the Middle East?
The Communist Party of Israel is small and insignificant, but its existence in the heart of the Jewish state is another indication that the “Red Jihad” survives.
As we document in our book Red Jihad, the communists and their Islamist allies have not given up. They have just begun to fight.
Meanwhile, here at home, the “ceasefire” demonstrations will continue to be focused on the destruction of Israel. “Long live the Intifada” is their cry, as their American allies, such as New York City Mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani, work to achieve power in major American cities and their street soldiers operate without any monitoring or surveillance by Kash Patel’s FBI.
The war continues, at home and abroad.
