Hamas isn’t just negotiating over 59 Israeli hostages—they’re holding 2.3 million Palestinians hostage, too.

Gaza did not invade Israel on October 7, 2023—Hamas did. Framing it as "Gaza" serves only one purpose: to dehumanize and demonize the entire population of Gaza.

Asking Hamas to step down is a Palestinian necessity. No Arab country, no international body, and no real effort to rebuild Gaza will happen while Hamas remains in power.

The pro-Palestine movement must stop avoiding this truth.

It’s not relocate Gazans—it’s ethnically cleansing them, and ethnic cleansing must never be accepted under any circumstances.

The "We Want Dignity" movement in Gaza is rapidly growing. Many people are joining and calling for action. On Tuesday, January 14, 2025, they will take to the streets with one clear demand: stop the war.

Syria's tiny Jewish community—now just nine members strong—revisits the 2,700-year-old synagogue in Jobar, Damascus, heavily damaged by the Assad regime.

It’s great to see Syrian Jews returning to Syria.

Assad's intelligence officer, who played the role of a victim of Saydnaya prison for CNN, finally got caught by HTS.

The news of a potential hostage deal brings hope to Gazans who desperately want it to happen, but the road to reaching it is filled with horror. Hamas has escalated its violence—killing and torturing its opponents to show they will continue the same reign of terror they've maintained for 17 years.

🚨BREAKING: Hamas militias murdered Youssef Omar Mustafa Abu Warda (Al-Jamal) after luring him to the Al-Saftawi area in northern Gaza. He tried to flee, but they shot him three times in the back.

Youssef is the third victim today at the hands of Hamas militias.

The Gazan infant, Zeina Khaled Ashour, has lost her father, mother, and brother, and today her leg has been amputated.

What kind of life awaits Zeina after the war, if she even survives?

The Jordanian journalist Yasser Abu Hilala, former director of Al Jazeera, states that Hezbollah’s war with Israel washes their hands of the blood of innocent Syrians.

Hezbollah apologists are utterly depraved.

Hi, Bluesky people!
I feel like I’ve just wandered into a strange new neighborhood for the first time.
