Germany caught funding Hamas-linked network for years

 

Former German Chancellor Angela Merkel 

A bombshell confidential audit revealed that German governments under former chancellor Angela Merkel funded an Islamic charity tied to Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood for years, despite warnings, Israeli sanctions, and serious security concerns.

According to the explosive report, Germany’s Foreign Office continued to funnel taxpayer money into Islamic Relief while allegedly failing to track where the funds ultimately ended up. Auditors accused officials of operating “blindly,” even as Israel viewed the organization as part of Hamas’s financial network.

One shocking revelation claimed that €240,000 in cash was allegedly flown from Germany to Turkey inside suitcases, fueling fears that European money may have flowed through extremist-linked channels unchecked.

Critics called the scandal a staggering failure by Berlin and a dangerous example of Europe’s repeated blindness toward Islamist networks operating under the cover of humanitarian aid.t networks operating under the cover of humanitarian aid.

Qatar secretly funding Iran, saving it from economic collapse

 

Doha reportedly providing Tehran a financial lifeline, despite Iranian attacks on Qatar.

By World Israel News Staff

Qatar is funneling money to the Iranian regime, according to a report published on Monday by Israel Hayom, providing Tehran with a much-needed financial lifeline.

Doha has become a key venue in the US-Iran talks as Tehran presses for access to billions of dollars in frozen assets and Washington seeks guarantees on the Strait of Hormuz and Iran’s nuclear program.

However, Israel Hayom reported that Qatar’s role has gone beyond mediation, citing two Gulf diplomatic sources and a Western intelligence official who said Doha has provided financial assistance to Iran in recent weeks as the US naval blockade has intensified pressure on Tehran’s finances.

The report said Iran has struggled to pay public-sector salaries, fund imports and sustain the coffers of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.

The report came as Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi and Central Bank Governor Abdolnaser Hemmati traveled to Doha for talks that officials and regional reports said focused on the Strait of Hormuz, highly enriched uranium and frozen Iranian assets.

A source cited by Daily Sabah said Hemmati’s inclusion in the delegation was tied to “the issue of frozen funds, which is addressed in the MoU as part of an eventual final deal.”

Iranian state-linked Fars News Agency reported that Hemmati traveled to Qatar “in line with efforts to pursue the unfreezing of Iran’s assets” and as part of the negotiations’ economic commission, IranWire reported.

The central bank chief was expected to discuss blocked Iranian funds and other financial issues with Qatari officials in Doha.

At the center of the dispute is Iran’s demand for access to frozen money held in Qatar.

Tehran is seeking the release of funds, including $12 billion in Qatar, immediately upon the signing of a memorandum of understanding, Iran International recently reported.

The report said the US is prepared to move on the funds only after the full reopening of the Strait of Hormuz and an Iranian commitment on the nuclear issue.

Israel Hayom said Qatar’s contacts with Iran expanded after the ceasefire more than a month ago, with Doha seeking to avoid renewed Iranian attacks on its territory.

The report said Qatar had remained protected during post-ceasefire incidents in which the UAE and Saudi Arabia were attacked, and that some Iranian payments could be disguised as fees connected to tankers passing through Hormuz.

Trump's Peace Plan with Iran is Delusionally Dangerous

 

by Scott Kahn

The news is constantly changing, so perhaps by the time you read this, the ceasefire deal will have been signed, or tabled altogether, or some other option we have not even considered. Nevertheless, these are my thoughts as of 4 PM Israel time on May 26, 2026:

President Donald Trump is touting his latest attempt at officially ending the United States and Israel’s war against Iran. While the war could have concluded in many different ways, and may yet continue given Iran’s insistence on negotiating as if it is the absolute victor, the ceasefire Trump is apparently choosing is among the least welcome to Israelis of all political stripes.

Let’s briefly examine some of the reasons that this is true.

Israel is working on a plan to replace Jordan’s custodianship over the Al-Aqsa Mosque on the Har Habayis

 The Trump administration and Israel are working on a plan to replace Jordan’s custodianship over the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound in Jerusalem with a new arrangement that would expand Jewish prayer rights at the site, according to a report published on Monday.

The Middle East Eye, citing unnamed US, Jordanian, Palestinian, Western and Gulf Arab sources, reported that the proposal would end the authority of the Jordanian-backed Islamic Waqf and create a new body tied to Israel to administer the compound.

After publication, the outlet said a US official called the allegation that Washington was actively working to strip Jordan of its custodianship “totally false.”

The report said the plan was being promoted by Jared Kushner, President Donald Trump’s son-in-law, and US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee.

According to the report, the proposed arrangement would recast the compound as a “multi-faith center,” allow large-group Jewish prayer and give Israel a role in appointing Muslim religious officials and approving Friday sermon content.

No such proposal has been publicly announced by the White House, Israel or Jordan.

A Jordanian government official told Middle East Eye that Amman’s position on Jerusalem and its holy sites “remains firm,” and said Jordan was coordinating with Palestinian, Arab and international partners to prevent changes to the historical and legal status quo.

The official said Jordan’s custodianship is recognized under treaties and agreements, including the 1994 Israel-Jordan peace treaty.

Article 9 of the Israel-Jordan peace treaty says Israel respects Jordan’s “special role” in Muslim holy shrines in Jerusalem and will give high priority to Jordan’s historic role in permanent-status negotiations.

Under the longstanding status quo, the Jordanian Waqf administers the Temple Mount’s internal religious affairs, while Israel controls access and external security.

Jews and other non-Muslims are allowed to visit during set hours but are not permitted to pray there.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has repeatedly said Israel’s official policy is to preserve that arrangement.

After National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir visited the compound in August 2025 and said he had prayed there, Netanyahu’s office said Israel’s policy of maintaining the status quo “has not changed and will not change.”

The issue has remained a recurring source of friction between Israel and Jordan. Jordan’s King Abdullah warned in a 2024 call with then-President Joe Biden against “unilateral Israeli measures” that he said threatened the historical and legal status quo of Islamic and Christian holy sites in Jerusalem, according to the Jordanian royal court.

Middle East Eye reported that Bahrain, Egypt, Morocco and the United Arab Emirates had been briefed on the alleged US proposal, while Saudi Arabia opposed it.

The outlet said the fate of Jerusalem’s Christian holy sites was unclear under the reported plan. Jordan’s Hashemite monarchy also claims custodial responsibilities over major Christian sites in Jerusalem, including the Church of the Holy Sepulchre.

US launches strikes on mine-laying boats in southern Iran

 

The US military launched “self-defense strikes” against Iranian boats that were reportedly laying mines in the Strait of Hormuz Monday, according to Central Command.

CENTCOM spokesperson Capt. Tim Hawkins said US military “eliminated” two Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps boats that were seen setting mines in the strait, and also took out a surface-to-air missile site in Bandar Abbas, according to Fox News. 

The missile site based at Iran’s primary naval station was reportedly targeting US warplanes, Hawkins said. He insisted that the “self-defense strikes” were conducted “to protect our troops from threats posed by Iranian forces.”

“U.S. Central Command continues to defend our forces while using restraint during the ongoing ceasefire,” Hawkins said in a statement obtained by the outlet.

The US strikes — and mine-laying efforts by the IRGC — are both violations of a tenuous cease-fire that appears on the cusp of being extended after a framework to end the Iran war surfaced following whirlwind negotiations over the weekend.

The tentative deal between Washington and Tehran, which was brokered by Pakistan, would reopen the strait without tolls, end the fighting for 60 days and begin a short window to negotiate an end to the Islamic Republic’s nuclear program. 

Tehran would also clear the mines it had deployed at the strait’s checkpoint and allow ships to pass freely, according to parameters of the agreement, according to Axios.

In return, the US would lift its blockade on Iranian ports and waive some sanctions against the Iranian regime – allowing Tehran to sell oil again.

President Trump and Secretary of State Marco Rubio separately warned that the deal wasn’t finalized though. 

A senior Trump administration official previously told The Post that the president may opt out if Tehran doesn’t commit to his terms, including a hardline on the nuclear program.

Several other explosions were reported close to Sirik and Jask, two coastal cities along the strait and Gulf of Oman, respectively, earlier Monday. 

After four years: Famous personality who refused divorce, gives in to ultimatum

 

The Tel Aviv Rabbinic Court has ordered a get (divorce document) to be given to S. after a long struggle with her husband, a famous personality, who refused to divorce her for four years.

The decision came after the court posed an ultimatum to the husband, that if he did not grant the get, harsh legal and financial sanctions would be considered. Among the sanctions on the table were the termination of his employment with his employer and the publication of his name in public.

The couple married 22 years ago and had children during their time together. Four years ago, they separated, but, according to the wife, the husband refused to grant the halachic divorce and demanded significant monetary concessions in exchange, while using verbal and economic violence.

In recent years, the woman resided overseas, and last summer, she decided to reach out to Or Torah Stone's "Yad La’isha" organization, which represents those whose husbands refuse to grant a get.

Attorney and rabbinic advocate Tehila Cohen, who represents the woman in the process, asked the court to apply direct pressure on the get refuser.

She asked that his place of work fire him and that his identity be cleared for publication to end his refusal. Later in the hearings, the husband's employer appeared before the court to consider the possible steps.

The judge, Rabbi Shlomo Shtessman, notified the husband that he was to issue the get by April 30th. The judge made clear that if he did not do so, he would consider the attorney's request for sanctions positively.

According to sources involved in the case, a short time before the ultimatum expired, the husband announced that he was prepared to grant the get and appointed a messenger to deliver it to his wife.

On Thursday, the wife officially received her get at the Tel Aviv Rabbinic Court after arriving in Israel to complete the process.

Cohen stated: "We are witnesses to another case that proves that only uncompromising and unequivocal action against get refusers is the key to quickly free get refusees."
