A fire has broken out in Jerusalem near the aquarium and zoo and the water spring that is there at the end of the road in the video #happeningnow; fire services are arriving at this moment 🔥 🚨
Fire services are trying to put it out Image
It appears from the other side that most of it has been contained Image

Now due to wind it has grown a bit and they are using planes on it and moving fire services above it

I watched this video several times, after the first time with the sound off, because the kids in the right side of the frame are all trying to get the attention of the camera to tell their story; they deserve a better future without Hamas and the endless wars it brings to Gaza and the suffering it profits from
It’s really unconscionable that the international community has not worked to prevent Hamas from ruling Gaza and destroying the lives and opportunities of these kids. The same country that hosted the Taliban and brought it back to Kabul, hosts Hamas a
It’s not a coincidence that Hamas has such power and strong backers. It exists solely to destroy peace and ruin the rights of generations in Gaza and a lot of this is accomplished with the collaboration of the international community

It would be interesting to see a survey asking people: if you could go back to October 6 and prevent the October 7 Hamas attack and the war, would you?

I thinking everyone in Israel would want to go back and prevent this horrid war.

But if you surveyed people in the rest of the region and world, I wonder what we would find.
Let’s say we surveyed US college students and asked them if they’d like to go back and prevent this war. Would the Hamas backers who profit immensely off this want or go back? They support the massacre at the Nova festival so I bet they wouldn’t.
And let’s say we surveyed Russia, which backs Hamas…be interesting to know. And let’s say we did the survey in the Gulf. Some countries probably would like to prevent this awful war. But there is one that profits massively from the war. They would want it to happen.

If Hamas believes it benefits from the destruction of Gaza and civilian suffering and it believes it benefits from a long war. And Israel also believes that a long reconstruction in Gaza somehow is a benefit and that a long war in Gaza with endless raids to “manage” the conflict “like in the West Bank”…is in Israel’s interest…clearly both cannot be correct.
If Israel is correct then Hamas might have trouble growing back to Oct. 6 levels. But if Hamas is correct the repercussions for Israel are more devastating. Israel has more to lose in this war and it has less chances to “get it wrong.”
Considering this fact and the fact Israel misled itself before Oct 6 into believing Hamas was deterred, it would behove Israel’s leadership to consider the question of whether a long war in Gaza where there are diminishing returns and Hamas begins to recruit and Hamas benefits from reconstruction aid…will result.

The pro-Hamas extremist crowd in the US has moved from ripping down posters of hostages…to denying Hamas sexual assaults…to targeting the Nova festival victims. Their new talking point is that any memorial for the victims of the Nova festival is “genocide propaganda” and they compare the victims of the festival to Nazis and claim that protesting the victims is “antiZionism”
We have to understand that the extremists in the US not only support Hamas crimes completely but they do so with the full knowledge of who the victims are. They see the videos of young people being massacred and they support it. This is a genocidal cult.
Their talking points include things like claiming that because the festival was held in Israel or near Gaza then it’s ok to massacre civilians. They don’t mince words here. They don’t say it was a mistake of Hamas “resistance” to massacre people at Nova. They openly support it and excuse it

One tragic sign of Hamas success in this war is that it has upgraded its status such that its decisions now are weighed so much by the U.S. This in essence has legitimized it and upgraded its power since Oct. 7. Rather than Hamas being defeated and destroyed in 8 months, it is now holding court throughout the region.
The goal of the war should have been to ISOLATE Hamas and weaken it. But its leaders in Doha, a western ally, and its backing by Ankara-Moscow-Beijing-Tehran has transformed Hamas. This has weakened the PA as well.
If nothing is done to isolate and weaken Hamas it will come out of this war more influential and strategically more powerful. These are dangerously times. Hezbollah is also not being deterred.

We are going to hear a lot about reconstruction in Gaza in the coming year. The same international orgs that ignored or partnered with Hamas are going to want to get a piece of the billions that will be sent. BOOKMARK this:
Notice none of these organizations, such as the UN, or the countries that historically were influential in Gaza (Egypt, Qatar etc) are talking about how to prevent the reconstruction money from being spent on Hamas tunnels and terrorist infrastructure again
Why don't we ever hear UNRWA condemn Hamas for putting weapons in homes or in schools...or tunnels underneath? Why don't we hear them demand a transparent system of reconstruction that makes sure funds get to the people, not Hamas?
