Arab Countries Reject Trump’s Gaza Relocation Plan..Seems Like all know that Gazans are Terrorists!

 

 Arab countries and the Palestinian Authority published a joint statement on Saturday rejecting U.S. President Donald Trump’s proposal to relocate Gazans to Egypt and Jordan.

The foreign ministers of those countries and of Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates published the statement following a summit meeting in Cairo, according to the Associated Press. The statement also represents the official position of the Arab League, a regional organization with 22 member states, the document said.

“We affirm our rejection of [any attempts] to compromise Palestinians’ unalienable rights, whether through settlement activities, or evictions or [annexations] of land or through vacating the land from its owners … in any form or under any circumstances or justifications,” the statement read.

The move could “threaten the region’s stability, risk expanding the conflict, and undermine prospects for peace and coexistence among its peoples,” the text continued.

Last week, Trump said he had asked Jordan’s King Abdullah II to take in more Palestinians from Gaza, where entire neighborhoods have been destroyed during the 15 months of fighting between Hamas and Israel.

“I said to him that I’d love you to take on more, because I’m looking at the whole Gaza Strip right now and it’s a mess, it’s a real mess,” he told reporters aboard Air Force One.

“It’s literally a demolition site right now. Almost everything’s demolished, and people are dying there, so I’d rather get involved with some of the Arab nations and build housing in a different location where I think they could maybe live in peace for a change,” he continued.

He added that he had also asked Egypt to take in Gazans.

The proposal was immediately rejected by Egypt and Jordan, with Jordanian Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi saying: “Our refusal of displacement is a steadfast position that will not change. Jordan is for Jordanians, and Palestine is for Palestinians.”

Palestinians currently account for more than 70% of the population of Jordan, which is ruled by the Hashemite royal house, whose origins are in the Arabian Peninsula.

Egypt’s Increasing Military Poses Direct Threat to Israel

 

Recent developments have heightened tensions between Israel and Egypt, as Israel has formally requested explanations from Egypt regarding a substantial increase in Egyptian military activity within the Sinai Peninsula. In early January of this year, All Israel News reported that according to Channel 14, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have identified significant breaches of the 1979 peace treaty, including the construction of anti-tank barriers, extensive logistical preparations, and the deployment of entire armored divisions in central Sinai.

The 1979 peace agreement between Israel and Egypt mandated the demilitarization of the Sinai Peninsula, a region that Israel returned to Egypt as part of the treaty’s terms. However, the emergence of ISIS as a significant threat in the area led Israel to permit Egypt to amass considerable military forces near their shared border to combat the jihadist insurgency, as was reported by AllIsrael.com in early January. This cooperation was intended to address mutual security concerns without undermining the foundational principles of their peace accord.

“Qatari government funds manipulating American universities to mainstream anti-Israel propaganda and silence criticism about Doha's longstanding ties to Hamas and other terror groups,

 A new legal battle is unfolding over Qatar's financial influence on prominent American universities, as watchdog organizations seek transparency about billions in foreign funding flowing into US higher education institutions.

The Zachor Legal Institute, in conjunction with Judicial Watch, filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the US Department of Education a couple of weeks ago, seeking records related to Doha’s funding and operations at five prestigious American universities: Georgetown, Northwestern, Cornell, Harvard, and the University of Michigan.

The legal action comes in the wake of Texas A&M University's February 2024 decision to shut its Qatar campus, following revelations from a previous lawsuit that uncovered nearly half a billion dollars in funding from the Gulf nation hosting the Hamas leadership to the university.

According to a February 2024 report, Qatar has provided or contracted approximately $6 billion to American universities since 2007.

Caroline Glick Joins Netanyahu’s Team

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has appointed Caroline Glick, 46, as his new public relations advisor. Glick, a journalist and publicist, is a senior editor at the Jerusalem Post and the founder of the right-wing satire website Latma. She also worked as an assistant to Netanyahu’s political advisor during his first term in office.

On January 30, Glick posted the final episode of her podcast, “In Focus:”

Glick was born in Houston, and her family relocated to Chicago when she was an infant, where she grew up in the Jewish neighborhood of Hyde Park. She graduated from Columbia College at Columbia University in 1991 with a Bachelor of Arts in political science.

During her teenage years, she traveled with her parents and siblings, and it was on one of these trips that she first visited Israel, coinciding with the start of the First Lebanon War. Later that same year, in 1991, Glick made Aliyah and enlisted in the IDF.

In its Israeli Independence Day supplement in 2003, the newspaper Maariv named Glick the most prominent woman in Israel.

In 2003, during Operation Iraqi Freedom, Glick was embedded with the US Army’s 3rd Infantry Division and filed frontline reports for both The Jerusalem Post and the Chicago Sun-Times. She also reported daily from the front lines for Israel’s Channel 1 news. Glick was on the ground when US forces captured the Baghdad International Airport. For her battlefield reporting, she was honored with the Distinguished Civilian Service Award from the US Secretary of the Army.

In 2011, Glick harshly criticized Prime Minister Netanyahu in the aftermath of the Gilad Shalit prisoners’ exchange deal. The piece, which appeared on the News12 website, accused Netanyahu of being a weak leader who gave in to the manipulations of Israel’s extremist and defeatist media. Glick went on to describe Netanyahu as, at best, someone who lacked resolve, and at worst, as an immoral, strategically irresponsible, foolish, and opportunistic politician.

In January 2019, Glick joined Naftali Bennett’s New Right party. She ran unsuccessfully for a seat in the Knesset in the April 2019 elections, securing the sixth spot on the party’s electoral list. None of them made it past the threshold vote in that round.

Following release, elderly Palestinian Terrorist bashes Hamas, price of Oct. 7

 Recently released Palestinian terrorist Mohammed al-Tous spoke out against Hamas’s October 7 massacre in two separate interviews to Arab media this past week, citing the human cost of the ensuing Gaza war.

“Today, I tell my grandchildren not to go down the path of attacks and resistance,” the 69-year-old ex-detainee said in a Friday interview with the Saudi-owned al-Arabiya outlet. “We don’t want our freedom to come at the expense of our children’s’ lives.”

Al-Tous is the oldest terrorist freed so far as part of the Gaza hostage-ceasefire deal.

A member of the Palestinian Authority’s ruling Fatah movement, he was arrested in 1985 for organizing attacks on Israelis in and around Jerusalem. He went on to spend 40 years in prison.

Israeli authorities deported al-Tous to Egypt upon his release in the second round of the exchange, which saw 200 terrorists traded for four female Israeli hostages. He was one of 121 prisoners serving life sentences freed that day.

He was one of the few prisoners detained before the 1993 Oslo Accords not released as part of those agreements.

On Wednesday, al-Tous gave an interview to the Emirati al-Mashhad news outlet, in which he criticized Hamas leadership when asked about the October 7 attack that ultimately led to his release.

“If I had known the cost of my freedom, I would have stayed in prison… A leader who is thinking of carrying out a large attack must be aware of the cost. It is unacceptable that the cost of our release from prison is a drop of blood from a Palestinian child,” he said.

Al-Tous added that he encountered jailed Second Intifada leader Marwan Barghouti multiple times while in prison.

“I met Marwan Barghouti more than once, the last of which was two years ago. He was in good condition,” he told the outlet.

Barghouti, a top figure in Fatah serving five life sentences for planning attacks during the Second Intifada, is envisioned by many Palestinians as a potential successor to Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas.

In another Friday interview with The Independent, al-Tous spoke in favor of political negotiations toward a two-state solution in order to “prevent bloodshed on both sides.”

He urged unity within the Palestinian national movement, calling on Hamas to reconcile with Fatah and accept the leadership of Abbas, now 89 years old.
