Hamas hostage deal ‘far from meeting our requirements’ - Netanyahu says​

Hamas’s decision to put a new proposal on the table Monday night was intended to halt the IDF’s entry into Rafah, Netanyahu said, adding that, this “did not happen.”​

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu publicly rejected Hamas’s proposal for a deal — that delayed the return of the hostages and demanded an end to the war — even as he sent a team to Cairo to discuss it.

“The Hamas proposal is very far from [meeting] Israel’s requirements,” he stated in a video message he delivered on Tuesday night.

“Israel cannot accept a proposal that endangers the security of our citizens and the future of our country,” Netanyahu stated.

Israel’s negotiating team, he explained, was instructed “to stand firm” on principled points regarding hostages and security.

IDF has begun a military campaign in Rafah​

The IDF has also begun its military campaign in Gaza to destroy four Hamas battalions there, seizing the Palestinian side of the Rafah crossing at the Egyptian border, he said, referencing the War Cabinet’s decision on Monday night to embark on that operation.

“Within hours, our forces raised the Israeli flags at the Rafah crossing and took down the Hamas flags,” he said.

Seizure of the passageway into Egypt places all the crossings into Gaza back under Israeli control.

It’s a step that both helps pressure Hamas to make a deal and advances Israel’s war aim of destroying the terror group, he stated.

“We have already proven” that military pressure on Hamas is a necessary condition for the return of our hostages,” he said.

Hamas’s decision to put a new proposal on the table Monday night was intended to halt the IDF’s entry into Rafah, Netanyahu said, adding that, this “did not happen.”

Israel’s control of the Rafah crossing, he said, damages Hamas’s governmental capabilities and blocks their ability to travel.

Yoav Gallant to IDF soldiers​

Defense Minister Yoav Gallant entered the Rafah area, telling the soldiers there, “This operation will continue until we eliminate Hamas in the Rafah area and the entire Gaza strip, or until the first hostage returns."

"We are willing to make compromises to bring back hostages, but if that option is removed, we will go on and ‘deepen’ the operation- this will happen all over the [Gaza] strip - in the south, in the center, and in the north.

“Hamas only responds to force, so we will intensify our actions, and the military pressure will result in us crushing the Hamas [terrorist] organization,” Gallant stated.

US holding up weapons shipments to Israel for last two weeks, source says​

The delay is an alleged attempt by the US to send a message to Israel about operating in Rafah without an appropriate and credible humanitarian plan.​

US President Joe Biden's administration has been holding up several Boeing-made arms shipments to Israel for at least two weeks, a source familiar with the matter said on Tuesday.

The shipments involved Boeing-made Joint Direct Attack Munitions (JDAM), which convert dumb bombs into precision-guided ones and Small Diameter Bombs.

The sources did not elaborate further.

The White House and Pentagon declined to comment. The news of a delayed arms shipment was first reported by Axios over the weekend, and Politico first reported on the types of arms delayed and the reasoning on Tuesday.

Without addressing whether there had been a suspension in arms shipments, the Pentagon said on Monday that there had not been a policy decision to withhold arms from Israel, America's closest Middle East ally.

Washington has said, however, it could not support an Israeli invasion of the Gaza border city of Rafah without an appropriate and credible humanitarian plan.

Shipments include precision explosives kits​

The delayed shipments include small diameter tail kits for unguided bombs made by Boeing that are designed to make them more accurate, the source said, adding several direct commercial sales that were in process for Israel were also being held up. A pause in new sales would impede Israel's ability to restock weapons it has used.

A senior Israeli official, speaking to Reuters on condition of anonymity, did not confirm any specific hold-up in arms supplies but appeared to take the reports in stride: “As the prime minister has already said, if we have to fight with our fingernails, then we’ll do what we have to do.”

Birthright Israel set to hit Israel this summer with 13,500 participants​

Birthright participants will engage in civic volunteering and hear first-hand testimonies from October 7 survivors​

Some 13,500 Jewish young people are expected to visit Israel this summer as part of Birthright Israel, the largest educational-tourism organization in the world, Birthright Israel announced on Monday.

The enthusiastic participants, mostly from the United States and Canada, will be visiting from mid-May until September.

All Birthright Israel trips and programs will operate under strict safety and security standards amid the ongoing war with Hamas and escalating tensions with Hezbollah on the northern border.

“In light of the activities on college campuses, it is imperative, now more than ever, for Jewish students to have a strong sense of community through Birthright,” says Birthright Israel CEO Gidi Mark.

“Birthright Israel is committed to providing participants with a safe and a meaningful experience. In light of the recent escalation on college campuses, in which Jewish students are being threatened daily, it is imperative, now more than ever, for young Jews – and especially Jewish students – to have a strong sense of community through Birthright programs,” said Mark.

“We want them to visit the must-see sites, engage in open dialogues about the global surge in anti-Semitism within a secure environment, interact with Israelis and witness firsthand our society’s resilience amidst adversity, and having come to Israel with questions, they will leave with a deeper understanding.”

Birthright Israel participants will “return to their communities more educated and connected to Israel, more involved in Jewish life, prouder of who they are as Jews, now part of a new supporting community of like-minded peers,” Mark added.

Addressing the current conflict and its impact on Israel, each group will participate in civic volunteering, meet with a grassroots organization that was created to address local needs and will hear first-hand testimonies from October 7 survivors.

Who will be exploring Israel and what will they be getting up to?​

Some 9,000 of the participants will be joining a 10-day program and a further 3000 will spend the summer volunteering through the Birthright Israel Onward Volunteer Program.

An additional 1,400 participants will join Onward internships and fellowships; and 64 in the prestigious Birthright Israel Excel fellowship program.

Each program employs a framework with the common goals for the participants to experience Israel to the fullest, and return to their home countries with a stronger connection to the Jewish state.

3,000 Israeli peers will be participating across all Birthright Israel programs to foster relationships with their Diaspora counterparts. The conversations shared by the Israeli and Diaspora youths will promote group connectedness, a sense of community and shared destiny, according to Birthright Israel.

Veronica Benarroch, a 19-year-old college student from Aventura, Florida, is one Birthright Israel participant who will arrive in Israel later this month. She said: “Being a college student post 10/7 has showed me the importance of educating myself and those around me about Israel. I want to go on Birthright Israel because I really want to connect more to my Jewish heritage, to other Jewish students and to Israel.

I’ve never been to Israel, yet it’s been a big part of my identity and Judaism. I would love to experience it. I am also choosing to do an Onward internship because it gives me an opportunity to go abroad while connecting to my Judaism.”

Corey Silberglid, a 20-year-old college student from Wilmington, Delaware, said: “I want to be surrounded by people like me on this trip. In a time like this, it is hard to see that there is a community out there that supports our cause, and that is exactly what Israel is. When you step foot in Israel, you are surrounded by Jews, you are surrounded by Zionists and people who understand the life we are living right now.

If they want to connect with their REAL roots then they should go to Russia, Ukraine, Lithuania, Poland or Latvia. Possibly Armenia and Georgia too.

... genuine indigenous refugees in Jordan, Lebanon, Egypt will never have this opportunity.

Probably true. And the reason is that the local Palestinian society and leaders are so incompetent that they can't put together a successful society that could host their own birthright visitors.

Probably true. And the reason is that the local Palestinian society and leaders are so incompetent that they can't put together a successful society that could host their own birthright visitors.

They are under occupation,

Success or peace under occupation is an illusion, it's subjugation, enslavement, it's not tolerable

Trying to offer Palestinians this illusion of peace and success under subjugation is a sick joke

It's why the resistance to tyranny and apartheid will go on

The Pakistani military in many ways is no different to the Egyptian military, overly involved in the countrys politics, economics and a block to democratic evolution of the state.

However twice now Pakistan and the ISI has been central in taking down two superpowers in Afghanistan because they threatened Pakistans long-term strategic interests and because of the idea of Muslim brotherhood, as annoying as the Afghans can be, any issues we will deal between each other good or bad


Their is no international law, Egyptians using this as an excuse is pathetic

The Palestinians are an occupied people and Egypt as the direct neighbor has a responsibility it is failing in

Cowardice, nothing more, nothing less

How the Arabs can sit like cucks watching their people be humiliated is unfathomable

NATO also is a neighbor of Ukraine.. why with all their military power and thousands of nukes didn't move to liberate it from Russia..

You lack wisdom.. and you have cowardice in your heart projecting it on Arabs without any sound reason..
