France Happy to Join Harassment Campaign Against Israelis in Judea and Samaria

 


France is joining the Western harassment campaign against Israelis living in Samaria, who are often forced to defend themselves against attacks by neighboring Palestinian Authority Arabs long before Israeli military forces are able to arrive on the scene.

According to an announcement Tuesday by French Foreign Minister Stéphane Séjourné, France has joined the United States and Britain in imposing sanctions against so-called “extremist Israeli settlers” the Western nations claim are “guilty of violence against Palestinian civilians in the West Bank.

“As such, 28 individuals are subject to an administrative ban from French territory,” Séjourné said in the statement. “France reaffirms its firm condemnation of this unacceptable violence. As we have stated on numerous occasions, it is the responsibility of the Israeli authorities to put an end to it and prosecute its perpetrators,” he added.

The harassment of Israeli residents in Samaria began two weeks ago with the first round of sanctions imposed on four Israelis by the United States.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu condemned the move. “The vast majority of residents of Judea and Samaria are law-abiding citizens, many of whom are fighting right now in active and reserve duty to protect Israel,” he pointed out.

“Israel acts against all violators of the law in all places and therefore there is no place for drastic steps on this matter,” Netanyahu added.

The prime minister also raised the matter in his phone call on Sunday (Feb. 11) with US President Joe Biden, noting that for some time already there has been a decrease in the number of attacks against Palestinian Authority Arabs in Judea and Samaria.

Last month, then-Foreign Minister Eli Cohen called the claims of “growing settler violence” a “blood libel” and “a lie disconnected from reality.”

Freed Hostages Say Prescribed Medication Never Reached Them in Gaza

 



A relative of one of the two hostages rescued from Hamas captivity in Gaza early Monday morning has spoken out, saying her uncle Fernando Marman, 61, never received any of his prescribed medications despite Hamas promises to Qatar that the medicine was delivered to those who needed it.

“We handed over all the medications as part of the last medicine deal,” Maayan Sigal Koren told Galei Tzahal Army Radio in an interview on Tuesday. “[But] according to what they said, they never got anything.”

n fact, she said, “they were surprised that there was any such deal.”

Marman and Luis Har, 70, were rescued from the southern Gaza border town of Rafah by Shin Bet and IDF special forces. They are recovering at the Sheba Medical Center in Ramat Gan.

The families said they were informed that both men were given some medication while in captivity, but not the medicines specifically sent for them.

Last month, Qatar and France brokered a deal with Hamas to deliver urgently-needed medication to some 45 hostages with chronic medical conditions who are still being held by Hamas in Gaza.

Specific medical packages meant to last several months were to be delivered to each of the 45 hostages, with the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) coordinating deliveries in the enclave.

In accordance with the deal brokered by Qatar and France, for each box of medication intended for a hostage, Hamas was to be provided with 1,000 boxes of medicine for Gazans along with increased humanitarian aid.

The medications, purchased in France, were delivered to Egypt on January 17 by two Qatari Air Force planes and from there, were brought into Gaza where the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) was to coordinate distribution.

Hamas promised Qatar the medications would reach their intended destination, including those for the hostages, and at that point, all communications on the issue ended.

Palestinian Loving Transgender Shoots Christians in their "Lakewood" Church

 


The "woman" who opened fire at Joel Osteen’s packed Houston-area mega-church on Sunday, identified by authorities as Genesse Ivonne Moreno, 36, previously penned antisemitic writings,  used a weapon with a “Palestine” sticker in the brazen attack, officials said Monday. 

Moreno entered Lakewood Church just before a Spanish-language service was due to begin at 2 p.m. with a 7-year-old boy, and opened fire as hundreds of people were taking their pews.

Two off-duty officers working security at the church — Houston cop Christopher Moreno, who is not related to the shooter, and Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission Agent Adrian Herrera — returned fire and fatally shot Moreno, officials said during a Monday afternoon press briefing. 

The young boy, who is currently “fighting for his life” sustained a gunshot wound to the head, Police Chief Troy Finner said Monday. He remains hospitalized in critical condition. 

When asked whether the child was shot by an officer, Finner declined to speculate, but said on Sunday, “That "female," that suspect, put that baby in danger. I’m going to put that blame on her.”

The boy’s relationship to Moreno, who is originally from El Salvador, was not immediately known.

Moreno had a criminal history dating back to 2005, with charges of assaulting a public servant, assault causing bodily injury, forgery, possession of marijuana, theft, evading arrest and unlawful carrying of a weapon, according to the Texas Department of Public Safety. 

Hamas in shock trying to find out how Israel got precise intelligence information about the location of the two hostages

 



Sources in the Gaza Strip estimate that, following the successful operation in which Israeli forces rescued hostages Fernando Marman and Louis Har, Hamas will take measures to increase the security of the hostages it is holding.

Kan 11 News reported on Monday evening that, according to estimates, Hamas will increase the number of guards and may even try to transfer more of the hostages to the underground tunnels, with the understanding that Israel will find it more difficult to carry out a rescue operation inside the tunnels.

The same sources claimed that Hamas is trying to find out how Israel managed to get intelligence on the exact location of Marman and Har.

“I’m Ready To Serve” VP Harris


In an interview for a profile in the Wall Street Journal, Vice President Kamala Harris insisted that she’s ready to assume the mantle of the presidency, if the need were to arise.

“I am ready to serve. There’s no question about that,” Harris said, adding that anyone who sees her doing her current job “walks away fully aware of my capacity to lead.”

Her comments come on the heels of the special counsel report released last Thursday that demonstrated President Joe Biden’s declining cognitive abilities and as whispers of replacing him in the White House grow increasingly louder.

Wall Street Journal: In Nir Oz, Many Residents Are Dead & So Is The “Two-State Solution”


 “There were around 150 houses in Nir Oz, including those that were burned down, and everyone is empty now, its residents dead, kidnapped or living elsewhere as “internally displaced persons”—IDPs in refugee-speak,” an article in the Wall Street Journal stated over the weekend. “Only four houses remain undamaged.”

“There is beauty amid the destruction, a reminder of a paradise lost. Flowers, glossy in the rain, bloom alongside charred houses. A magnificent Ficus tree, chock full of parrots, stands unharmed. Yet abandoned tricycles and strollers tell of a place that was full of children. A soccer ball sits punctured in a yard. A young boy’s saxophone lies blackened in the rubble. Ravenous cats emerge as if from thin air as you walk by. The household bins from which they once scavenged are now empty. The ‘Cat Man,’ a resident who put food out for them at stations around the kibbutz, is dead.”

“Also dead is the two-state solution—the idea of a Palestinian state alongside Israel, which would give sovereignty to the people from whose midst came those who laid waste to this kibbutz on Oct. 7. For eight hours they hunted down the kibbutzniks, murdering 46 people and abducting 71, amounting to well over a quarter of those who lived here, making Nir Oz proportionately the hardest-hit of the kibbutzim that Hamas invaded.

Harvard Doubles Down on its Antisemitism and Hosts "Klavtah" UN Official that was Banned for Blaming Hamas Attack on Israel

 

Harvard University is set to host a UN official who was just banned from Israel for saying that the Hamas terror attack was Israel’s fault

Francesca Albanese, the UN’s Special Rapporteur on the Palestinian territories, was banned from Israel on Monday for saying that the Hamas attack had nothing to do with anti-Semitism, and was a “response to Israel’s oppression.”

Yet disgracefully, she was still scheduled to be a featured speaker for Harvard’s Carr Center for Human Rights Policy. “Join us for a virtual conversation with UN Special Rapporteur, Francesca Albanese, as she discusses her perspective on the current situation in the Gaza area as well as her experiences working on the protection of Palestinian refugees and migrants,” the event’s website states.

Albanese on Saturday pushed back against French President Emmanuel Macron for calling the Hamas attack an “anti-Semitic massacre.”

“The ‘greatest anti-Semitic massacre of our century’? No, Mr. @EmmanuelMacron,” Albanese tweeted in response to France’s president honoring the victims. “The victims of 10/7 were not killed because of their Judaism, but in response to Israel’s oppression.”

Israeli officials said Albanese should be fired permanently by the UN.

“The era of Jews being silent is over,” Foreign Minister Yisrael Katz and Interior Minister Moshe Arbel said in a statement. “If the UN wants to return to being a relevant body, its leaders must publicly disavow the anti-Semitic words of the ‘Special Envoy’ – and fire her permanently. Preventing her from entering Israel might remind her of the real reason why Hamas slaughtered babies, women and adults.”

Watch the Hostages Being Rescued Filmed on an IDF Helmet and a Helicopter

The Satmar Newspaper "Der Goy" Takes Headline Straight From Al Jazira "State of Israel Ignores US Warning on Rafa Operation"




 This would be hilarious if it weren't so tragic. As I reported previously "Der Goy" the Satmar Yiddish Newspaper with a circulation of over 500,000 takes it's news about the Hamas/Israel war directly from Al Jazira. 

The fact that the entire world including the demented Biden wants Israel out of Rafa, is proof positive that the key to victory is actually in Rafa, that is where the Hamas leadership is hiding and that is where the hostages are. In fact just last night the IDF was able to rescue in a daring operation two hostages on its very first day in Rafa! 

If you remember the US warned Israel not to go into Gaza predicting that Israeli troops would be killed by the thousands, and even though "one" is too much, only 226 soldiers were killed, the ratio of civilian deaths is also the lowest of any recent war anywhere in the world. 

But the headline of Der Goy straight out of a headline in Al Jazira  angrily Shouts: 

 "State of Israel Ignores US Warning on Rafa Operation" 

The article is also very antagonistic against the only Jewish country in the entire world, that houses the majority of the Jewish people, the brothers and sisters of those writing the article!

The article begins

"Tel Aviv:" 

Tel Aviv?????????? Isn't the capital of Israel, "Yerushalayim?" 

But Der Goy doesn't recognize the State of Israel nor its capital! So to supposedly stay "woke" they begin with the words "Tel Aviv." 

The following is a loose translation that reads like an article by Der Shturmer! 

DR GOY: "The prime minister of Medinas Yisrael, Bibi Netanyahu, openly defied the Biden Administration, stating that the IDF will continue their planned operation in Rafa! 

DIN: Bibi is not the PM of "Medinas Yisrael" he is the PM of the State of Israel. He didn't "defy the Biden Administration, he did what every single leader of every sovereign country should do, and that is to do what he thinks is best for his country and to protect its citizens! Israel would not tell the US what to do to protect its citizens. Did Israel protest US policies as the BLM marchers destroyed and burned down half of Portland?

DR GOY: The American Government warned that an operation in Rafa would result in many deaths of Palestinian civilians, since many of the refugees from the other parts of Gaza that relocated there! 

DIN: This is the same government that gave the same warning when the IDF went into Gaza in October, and judging from the wars that the US started and engaged in like Vietnam and Afghanistan, the IDF is doing a suburb job. 

Der Goy is quoting the demented Biden about "Innocent Palestinian lives" Let's not forget these Palestinians elected Hamas and in a poll made by Al Jasira just two weeks ago, over 90% of Palestinians are thrilled with Hamas! In addition these "innocent Palestinians, cheered on while their neighbors were parading naked girl victims and watched them being tortured and raped! 

I am not translating anything further, it's parroting Al Jazira! 

Satmar should stick to bringing Chicken Soup to the sick and stay out of Jewish affairs.
