Israelis have been talking about whether to put hundreds of captured Hamas fighters on trial at a special military tribunal, especially their leaders.

Murad Ismael : "Being held a hostage is much worst than death. Being enslaved like 6500+ women, girls and children is even much worse.
But because Yazidis didn’t have an army or a state of their own, most of the criminals got away with their crimes.
You need to be strong to apply justice with your own hand.
That is it. If Yazidis were strong, all those countries who finances ISIS would paid the price.
But maybe, I hope one day Yazidis can make them pay.''

Mosab Hassan Yousef has lived an extraordinary life.
Born in Ramallah, Yousef spent his youth involved in Hamas activities. That was expected of him, given that his father, Hassan Yousef, is one of the founders of the Islamist movement.
Growing up, Mosab Yousef embraced his father’s ideology and was arrested by Israeli authorities multiple times, starting at age 10, for crimes such as throwing stones at Israeli settlers and purchasing guns. But during a stint in Israeli prison in the late ’90s, at age 18, something changed. Or maybe a better way of putting it is that he flipped: he became an Israeli informant.
Eventually, he became Israel’s most valuable intelligence asset, foiling su***de bombings and other terror attacks. Yousef has since been outspoken not just about Hamas, but about radical Islamic terrorism more generally. In 2008 he converted to Christianity, shortly before he was granted asylum in the United States.
For a while Yousef stopped doing press and seemed to be trying to live a quiet life—away from the media and the death threats. But after Hamas massacred 1,200 Israelis and kidnapped 250 more on October 7, Yousef is speaking out once again against the terrorist group he knows all too well.
That’s why he sat down with columnist Douglas Murray in Tel Aviv recently.
Yousef is unsparing in his assessment of the movement he grew up in and the damage it has done to Palestinian society. Hamas, he says, has created a generation of “people willing to destroy themselves. . . to cause the most destruction possible.”

But even Yousef, who understands the hate that fuels Hamas better than most, was shocked by the attack on October 7. “I was surprised not by Hamas’s brutality, but by the scale of the event,” he says. “There is no human language that can describe the evil that took place on October 7. And that’s not just a war crime. It’s not just killing. It’s a genocide.”

What makes such evil possible? The answer lies in the hate-filled beliefs that Yousef’s father helped spread. “Jihadists think that they are the sword of God on Earth,” Mosab tells Douglas. “That they are actually manifesting the punishment against the Jewish people for being disobedient.”

Yousef’s unique perspective—and his moral clarity—makes him an essential voice right now. It’s also what makes his interview with Douglas required viewing.

Mosab Hassan Yousef was raised by the man behind the terror group. He then became an Israeli spy. In a Free Press interview, he exposes the ideology that fueled October 7.

A former Egyptian Jihadist, Tawfik Hamid is an M.D. and promoter of a Peaceful Muslim culture. He calls on religious scholars and clerics "to produce a Shariah book that will be accepted in the Islamic world and that teaches that Jews are not pigs and monkeys, and that declaring war to spread Islam is unacceptable..."
For his peaceful views, Dr. Hamid has been threatened by jihadists.
Israel needs people like him to change the culture of murder and hate in Gaza and Judea & Samaria (the ''West Bank'').
In this video, Dr. Hamid explains (for the thousandth time) that the MidEast conflict is Not about land, but about Jews in the Middle East.

It is unbelievable that after so many years, so many Leftist-led Countries and the pro-"Palestine" crowd still believe the conflict is about land.

'Three Faces of Antisemitism' by historian Jeffrey Herf examines the three primary forms of antisemitism as they emerged in modern and contemporary Germany, and then in other countries.
The chapters draw on the author’s historical scholarship over the years on the form antisemitism assumed on the far right in Weimar and N**i Germany, in the Communist regime in East Germany, and in the West German radical left, and in Islamist organizations during World War II and the Holocaust, and afterward in the Middle East. The resurgence of antisemitism since the attacks of September 11, 2001, has origins in the ideas, events, and circumstances in Europe and the Middle East in the half century from the 1920s to the 1970s. This book covers the period since 1945 when neo-N**ism was on the fringes of Western and world politics, and the persistence of antisemitism took place primarily when its leftist and Islamist forms combined antisemitism with anti-Zionism in attacks on the state of Israel. The collection includes recent essays of commentary that draw attention to the simultaneous presence of antisemitism’s three faces. While scholarship on the antisemitism of the N**i regime and the Holocaust remains crucial, the scholarly, intellectual, and political effort to fight antisemitism in our times requires the examination of antisemitism’s leftist and Islamist forms as well.
This book will be of interest to scholars researching antisemitism, racism, conspiracy theories, the far right, the far left, and Islamism.

Three Faces of Antisemitism (Studies in Contemporary Antisemitism)

The origins, consequences and limitations of an ideology that has quickly become highly influential around the world.
For much of their history, societies have violently oppressed ethnic, religious and sexual minorities. It is no surprise then that many who passionately believe in social justice have come to believe that members of marginalized groups need to take pride in their identity if they are to resist injustice.

But over the past decades, a healthy appreciation for the culture and heritage of minorities has transformed into an obsession with group identity in all its forms. A new ideology - which Yascha Mounk terms the 'identity synthesis' - seeks to put each citizen's matrix of identities at the heart of social, cultural and political life. This, he argues, is The Identity Trap.

Mounk traces the intellectual origin of these ideas. He tells the story of how they were able to win tremendous power over the past decade. And he makes a nuanced case why their application to areas from education to public policy is proving to be deeply counterproductive. In his passionate plea for universalism and humanism, he argues that the proponents of identitarian ideas will, though they may be full of good intentions, make it harder to achieve progress towards genuine equality.

''After 2001, when Jihadi terrorism started to take place in Europe, and survey after survey showed that most Muslims quietly supported the belief system that justified the terrorists’ activities, European leaders doubled down on those assumptions. Rules were relaxed, standards were lowered, and excuses were made whenever their estrangement tipped over into violence.
Meanwhile, the phenomenon of data manipulation became the political norm. Academics and think-tankers lined up to produce reassuring outcomes on paper that refused to acknowledge the rising tide of Islamisation, either by ignoring it completely or downplaying the number of Muslim migrants. The establishment of Sharia tribunals was barely registered, while we were told the construction of gigantic Mosques, madrassas, and Islamic centres were led and manned by moderate Muslims. Those brave enough to still speak out — for example over grooming gangs — were silenced or expelled.''

''When Jews online are hounded and abused, when Jewish students and school pupils are screamed at or harassed, when Jewish gravestones are smashed and synagogue windows broken – you’re not striking a blow for the Palestinians and against Israel. You’re placing yourself alongside the antisemites and racists who have always treated Jews this way, reminding Jews why they needed a refuge in the first place – and why they need it still.''

Iraqi Christian Foundation: "Armenia, the only Christian nation in the Middle East, may be invaded by Azerbaijan soon.
This would be another attempt to destroy the indigenous Christian communities of the Middle East.
Also, there are concerns that through the invasion a corridor may be created allowing Islamists from Central Asia to flood Europe.
Let’s pray that world leaders act to stop the invasion.

Douglas Murray: ''It would be another Palestinian terror state. One which had views over the entirety of Israel and where the rockets could this time easily hit Tel Aviv, Haifa and Ben Gurion airport.
So long as the Palestinians celebrate terror, encourage terror and pay for terror they should not have another state.
Two-states? It’s not a solution. It’s part of the problem.''

It’s amazing how long bad ideas take to die. That’s certainly the case with one of the least successful ideas in the world. The idea of the two-state solution in the Middle East.

Gov. Gretchen Whitmer had claimed that calling Dearborn a terrorist city was “incredibly cruel and ignorant and a total misrepresentation of an important city full of a lot of beautiful people.”

Gov. Whitmer’s old family friend is Abed Hammoud: a Lebanese immigrant and former U.S. attorney who once ran for mayor in Dearborn, and whose son Mustapha is a city councilman.

Abed Hammoud was listed as the lawyer for Hezbollah financier Mohammad Bazzi: a “specially designated global terrorist” who has been described as “a player for senior Hezbollah operatives and senior Iranian leadership”.

He had complained that a government crackdown on Hezbollah was “smearing the whole community”.

“Now people are scared to even say `I want Hezbollah to defend Lebanon,'” he had objected.

Dearborn Mayor Abdullah Hammoud spoke at an NGP Dearborn rally at which Osama Siblani, the publisher of Arab American News, declared, “We are the Arabs that are going to lift Palestinians all the way to victory. Whether we are in Michigan, and whether we are in Jenin. Believe me. Everyone should fight within his means. They will fight with stones. Others will fight with guns. Others will fight with planes, drones. And others will fight with rockets. And others will fight in their voice, and the others will fight with their hands and say free, free Palestine!”

After the Hamas attacks, the Detroit News promoted claims by the Islamic Center of Detroit that it had been forced to boost security because “people are scared”. A week earlier, Imam Imran Salha of the center had told a huge crowd that Israel had put a “fire in our hearts that will burn that state”—Israel— “until its demise.”

From the mayor on down, Dearborn, MI is a terrorist state.

“The violence won’t stop, no matter how much money is put into the neighborhoods.” Acts of violence cause horror in France. Those who refuse to accept reality in politics, the media and the judiciary are largely responsible for the escalation, says youth psychiatrist Maurice Berger.
French youth psychiatrist Maurice Berger and others say in this interview about Islamic 'victimism', which cleverly responds to the Western culture of guilt.
The increase in violence by young people with a migration background is partly due to 'dénisphere': media and politicians who, for ideological reasons, do not want to face reality and see perpetrators of violence as victims of society (and call those who do 'fascist').
The perpetrators of violence come from a shame culture and cleverly play into the Western guilt culture: "Nothing is easier than making a Westerner feel guilty. The more the members of the guilt society feel guilty and talk about the 'disadvantaged', the more the members of the shame society portrays itself as victims.”
This is even more true in countries with a Calvinist background; for Catholics, confession of guilt is an individual matter: the confessional!, but for Calvinists it is something public.

''The Biden administration may celebrate Turkey's agreement to allow Sweden's NATO accession as a diplomatic win, but the growing risk of an intra-NATO war offset any benefit Sweden might bring. Addressing Erdoğan grievances or augmenting his military will not bring Turkey back into the community of responsible nations. Rather, the problem remains Erdoğan ideology. Ignoring that reality will not bring stability or security, but could rather destroy NATO and force the United States to confront yet another unexpected war in Europe.''

On January 27, 2024, two days after the Biden administration again urged Congress to greenlight F-16 sales to Turkey, Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan said at a public meeting of his ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP), "Our struggle did
