A growing number are aware that the Iranian-backed terror group does not care about their safety or welfare, and is prepared to sacrifice as many people as possible to achieve its goals.

If Trump is serious about preventing war and bloodshed in the Middle East, he must insist that any agreement with Iran’s mullahs include no centrifuges or uranium enrichment of any kind, and no support for Tehran’s terror proxies.

Trump and his special envoy Steve Witkoff are being played and appear not even to know it.

Think Abbas, who has been running the PA as an autocrat, intends to share power with his newly elected vice president, Hussein al-Sheikh? Think again.

Apparently, Witkoff believes that Hamas’s political activities are not as dangerous as its terrorism. Otherwise, how could he even consider the possibility that Hamas could be transformed into a political party?

The only deal that will actually bring peace is one in which Hamas ceases to exist.

A terror group committed to the elimination of Israel should have no role in any Palestinian government—not in the West Bank and certainly not in the Gaza Strip.

For Iran and its allies, the conflict does not concern borders, refugees, prisoners, settlements or checkpoints. It is actually about Israel’s continued existence in the Middle East.

The Palestinian Conference for Palestinians Abroad claims to represent 6-7 million Palestinians in over 50 countries, and opposes the PLO and Palestinian Authority.

Hamas’s announcement of the formation of “Vanguards of the Al-Aqsa Flood” has drawn sharp criticism from many Lebanese.
