The army is deployed in Gaza City and is prepared for any situation.

If Hamas refuses, we will resume firing.

The Perverse Religious Text of Zionism

The Talmud Bavli (Babylonian Talmud), the primary religious text guiding Zionists, contains shocking teachings.

"An adult man who has sexual relations with a girl under three years old is considered to have done nothing, as it is likened to poking a finger in the eye."

China’s PLA has built and expanded ultra-detailed mock replicas of Taiwanese government buildings at its Zhurihe training base in Inner Mongolia—models of the Presidential Office, Judicial Yuan, MFA, MOD, road networks, even a 280 m underground tunnel.

New satellite imagery shows the site has nearly tripled in size since 2020, with additions as recent as April 2025, tailored for large-scale urban warfare drills.

When Hamas responded to President Trump’s Gaza peace proposal with a “yes, but,” Trump called Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, seeing it as progress.

Netanyahu disagreed.

Israeli bombings in Gaza must stop if an agreement is reached.

Marco Rubio on the Gaza deal:

90% of the details have been agreed upon; only the logistical issues remain.

The negotiations cannot continue for weeks or even days.

That doesn’t exist. That has to be built.
