Mainstream Outlets Had Photographers Embedded With Hamas as Terror Attack Unfolded: Report

Photographers from the Associated Press and Reuters appear to have been embedded with Hamas terrorists as they executed terrorist attacks against Israel on October 7, according to a new report from Honest Reporting, a media watchdog.

Photos posted by the news agencies of the surprise terrorist attack on Israel include ones showing terrorists breaking the gates to Kibbutz Kfar Aza, where residents were caught completely off guard and dozens were murdered. Photos also show that photographers were on the scene as terrorists took civilians such as Shani Louk hostage, and attacking Israeli tanks on the other side of the Gaza border.

The photos raise serious questions about whether the news agencies had advance knowledge that the terrorist attacks were taking place. The four individuals credited by the Associated Press for images of the attacks — Hassan Eslaiah, Yousef Masoud, Ali Mahmud, and Hatem Ali — are all photographers based in Gaza, where it was revealed in 2021 that the Associated Press shared office space with the terrorist group.

One of the photographers, Hassan Eslaiah, has reportedly been pictured getting kissed by a top Hamas operative who is said to be one of the chief architects of the deadly terrorist attacks, which killed over 1,400 and have led to a massive war with Israel.

Trump to U.S.-Hating, Jihadist-Celebrating Alien Residents: ‘We Will Find You, and We Will Deport You’

American-hating alien residents who have joined pro-jihadist protests and “became very violent and started destroying our Capitol and many other places” have been put “on notice” and will be deported, former President Donald Trump said during his counter-programming rally in Hialeah, Florida.

“In Washington, DC, pro-jihadist demonstrators climbed up the fence in front of the White House … they damaged the fence and they damaged police vehicles [and] desecrated statues of Ben Franklin and other great heroes of our country, and they shouted Allahu Akbar, while calling the barbaric Hamas terrorists martyrs,” Trump said, explaining that “in times like these, you can’t afford to have a president who wants to be politically correct.”

“We have to do things properly,” Trump said.

Trump said America cannot have an administration in place that takes foreign policy advice from the likes of Reps. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), Ilhan Omar (D-MN), and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY).

“But that’s a movement that’s growing,” Trump said, promising to restore the Trump travel ban on entry from terror-laden countries on “day one” in office. (Read more from “Trump to U.S.-Hating, Jihadist-Celebrating Alien Residents: ‘We Will Find You, and We Will Deport You’” HERE)

Republican Presidential Candidates Give Their Positions on Israel

The five Republican presidential candidates who were at the third GOP primary debate on Wednesday night each gave their stances on how Israel should conduct its war against Hamas and what support the U.S. should provide. . .

The first candidate to be asked the question was Florida Governor Ron DeSantis since he was standing at center stage as the leading candidate at the debate.

“I would be telling [Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu], finish the job once and for all with these butchers, Hamas,” he said. “They’re terrorists, they’re massacring innocent people, they would wipe every Jew off the globe if they could — he cannot live with that threat right by his country — that Hamas should release every hostage and they should unconditionally surrender.” . . .

Next to answer the question was former South Carolina Nikki Haley, who stood to DeSantis’ side as the second ranked candidate on stage.

“The first thing I said to him when it happened was I said, ‘finish them, finish them,’” she said. “And the reason is, I worked on this every day when I was at the United Nations. And we have to remember that they have to one, eliminate Hamas, two, support Israel with whatever they need whenever they need it, and three, make sure we bring our hostages home.”

Netanyahu Signals Affinity for Zelensky as Israel’s Ties With Russia Worsen

Israel intends to host Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky for a visit to show solidarity in response to the Hamas terrorist attack last month despite Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s careful management of ties with Russia.

“If President Zelensky comes, he will be welcomed with open arms,” an unnamed Israeli official told the Times of Israel.

Zelensky had planned to arrive in Israel on Monday, according to reports, which would have positioned him to mark the passage of a month since the unprecedented rampage that ignited a major war in Gaza. The visit was canceled after his plans leaked, but points in any case to the worsening relationship between Israel and Russia.

“It’s kind of an extension of this rhetorical signaling … to the Russians that [they should] measure your support to the Palestinians or those who are supporting Palestinians,” former Estonian diplomat Peeter Raudsik, who specialized in Middle East issues at the Estonian mission to the United Nations from 2019 to 2022, told the Washington Examiner.

House Censures Rep. Rashida Tlaib Over Defense of Hamas, Calls To Destroy Israel

The House of Representatives voted Tuesday night to censure Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) for defending Hamas’ Oct. 7 terror attack against Israel as “resistance” and calling for the destruction of the Jewish state.

Tlaib is the 26th member of Congress to be censured by the House in the legislative body’s history.

The censure vote, initially scheduled for Wednesday, was apparently moved up after Rep. Rich McCormick’s (R-Ga.) office – the congressman who introduced the resolution – received death threats.

“I take the safety of my team seriously. I am temporarily closing my physical district office location in Cumming, GA due to serious threats of violence against my staff. These threats have been reported to Capitol Police and will be investigated fully,” McCormick said in an X post.

McCormick’s resolution passed in a 234-188 vote, with four members voting present. (Read more from “House Censures Rep. Rashida Tlaib Over Defense of Hamas, Calls To Destroy Israel” HERE)

Biden Urges Netanyahu To Agree to 3-Day Fighting Pause To Help Hostage Releases: Report

President Biden on Monday urged Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to commit to a three-day pause in the fighting in Gaza to help secure the release of some of the hostages held by Hamas, according to a report.

Biden’s comments in his emergency phone call with Netanyahu came as a proposal has been discussed between the US, Israel and Qatar in which Hamas would purportedly agree to release 10-15 hostages during such a pause, an American official told Axios.

Over the three days, Hamas would supposedly verify the identities of all the hostages the terrorist group is holding and release a full list of the captives, according to the report.

However, US and Israeli officials told the outlet that Netanyahu is reluctant to strike such a deal because he does not believe Hamas will hold up its end of the bargain.

His reservations stem from the 2014 Israel-Hamas war, when the terrorists attacked a group of Israeli soldiers, kidnapped one of them and killed several others during a humanitarian pause, the Israeli official told Axios.

Media Outlets Tie Themselves in Knots To Avoid Saying Jewish Man Was Killed in Fight With Pro-Palestinian Protesters

A Jewish man was killed in California after a confrontation between pro-Israel and pro-Palestinian rallygoers resulted in an altercation — but if the mainstream media reports are to be believed, he might have just died after falling on the sidewalk and hitting his head.

Paul Kessler, 69, hit his head on the pavement as a result of the altercation and later died of his injuries at a nearby hospital.

The Ventura County Sheriff’s Department reported: “Upon arrival, responding deputies located Kessler, who was suffering from a head injury. Witness accounts indicated that Kessler was involved in a physical altercation with counter-protestor(s). During the altercation, Kessler fell backwards and struck his head on the ground. Kessler was transported to an area hospital for advanced medical treatment. On November 6, 2023, Kessler succumbed to his injuries.”

The Sheriff’s office said in a press conference on Tuesday that officers detained a 50-year-old suspect who was “advocating for Palestine” during his confrontation with Kessler. The Sheriff’s Department later released the suspect after authorities conducted a search warrant at his home. The medical examiner’s office ruled the cause of death to be homicide, and authorities have “not ruled out the possibility of a hate crime” charge.

Still, media was rife with headlines that left out the fact that he was involved in a “physical altercation” with pro-Palestinian protesters when he hit his head.

WATCH: ‘Woke’ Students’ Support for Terrorists Mocked in Hysterical Satire

Western support for Hamas, the blood-thirsty terrorists from Gaza who committed horrific atrocities to kill 1,400 Israelis in an attack on innocent civilians last month, is being skewered in a satire video online.

There’s a 19-minute skit that is called “Welcome to Columbia Untisemity” and opens with a nearly three-minute segment that has been posted online.

A report from the Jerusalem Post explains a doctored Columbia University logo appears in the ski, as the school “has been at the center of multiple scandals since the beginning of the Israel-Hamas war, with one professor actively praising the October 7 attack on civilians.” . . .

It opens with a logo for “Columbia Untisemity” that has a Palestinian flag with “from the river to the sea” inscribed below it and two crossed-out Magen Davids.

The actors, sporting blue and pink hair, chant sing-song: “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free,” the trope that terrorists often use to suggest the destruction of the state of Israel.

Hamas Leaders Rake in Billions as They Condemn Palestinians to War in Gaza

The leaders of the Palestinian terrorist group known as Hamas have become multi-billionaires over the past two decades, as they launch wars in Gaza from a safe distance in Qatar and Turkey, and condemn their own people to poverty and misery.

According to the Israeli embassy to the U.S., the leaders of Hamas — an acronym for Islamic Resistance Movement — “line their pockets” with money while Gazans depend on international assistance, and must suffer Hamas’s period wars against Israel.

While enjoying their wealth in comfortable exile, Hamas sends terrorists to launch rockets against Israel — or, as on October 7, to embark on missions to kill or kidnap as many Israelis as possible. Hamas officials know they will be safe from the fighting.

The Times of Israel noted last month:

Senior Hamas figures, including [leader Ismail] Haniyeh, would levy a 20 percent tax on all of the trade passing through the tunnels, according to a 2014 report in Ynet, an Israeli news site.

…

[Haniyeh’s] lavish [real estate] holdings contrast sharply with endemic poverty in the Gaza Strip, where some half of the population is unemployed, and per capita GDP was around $5,600 annually in 2021, making it one of the poorest places in the world.

…

On December 30, 2022, the Saudi news website Elaph … claimed that Maaz, and other sons of the Haniyeh family, drink alcohol abroad and spend time with women other than their wives in luxury nightclubs. Elaph also reported that Haniyeh’s children own generators, and sell electricity, a rare commodity in an area under constant power shortages, while they themselves get it for free.

Top U.S. Senators Warn Military Will Strike Iran Under Two Conditions

Top U.S. Senators said over the weekend that they are introducing a bipartisan resolution calling for military strikes against Iran if its terror proxies in the Middle East kill any U.S. soldiers or if Hezbollah opens up a second front against Israel.

Sens. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) and Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) made the remarks during a CNN interview Sunday morning with Dana Bash on “State of the Union.”

The segment comes after Hamas murdered 1,400 Israelis in an unprecedented terrorist attack last month and Hezbollah, an Iranian-backed terrorist group in Lebanon, has conducted small scale attacks against Israel as it weighs whether to launch a full-scale attack.

“It basically says, if the war expands, if Hezbollah opens up a second front in the north against Israel in a substantial way to overwhelm Iron Dome, then we should hit the Islamic Republic of Iran,” Graham said. “There is no Hamas without the Ayatollahs’ support. There is no Hezbollah without the Ayatollahs’ support. The great Satan in the region is not Israel or the United States. It’s Iran.” (Read more from “Top U.S. Senators Warn Military Will Strike Iran Under Two Conditions” HERE)
