There is a growing estimation amongst Israeli authorities that Yahya Sinwar, the leader of Hamas in Gaza, intends to exploit a humanitarian crisis in the southern Gaza Strip with his hostage ‘honeytrap’ ceasefire.

Israel didn’t do so well on October 7th when their poor planning and egregious underestimation of their enemy Hamas led the terror group to be able to conduct the largest single-day slaughter of the Jews since the Holocaust, but everyday since then they’ve come roaring back like a lion. That’s good. But now I wonder, has Israel and the IDF just made a second potentially fatal decision in allowing Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar to call the shots in forcing a ceasefire with his proffered ‘honeytrap’ hostage release? Yikes.

“Wherefore hear the word of the LORD, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem. Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves:” Isaiah 28:14,15 (KJB)

The world that hates Israel so much has been working overtime to protect and defend the Palestinian terrorists Hamas, with rallies in the hundreds of thousands happening nearly every day on a global level. Israel should not have stopped their campaign against Hamas, and now that they have, will they be able to pick up there they left off after the hostages are set free?  I can easily see Sinwar dragging this out for quite sometime, and in that time, the tide supporting Israel could completely turn the other way. Netanyahu and the Israeli government, people that Isaiah refers to as ‘scornful men’, have taken a bad situation and likely have made it much, much worse.

Dangerous hostage honeytrap: What is Hamas’s Yahya Sinwar plan for IDF after ceasefire?

FROM THE JERUSALEM POST: There is a growing estimation amongst Israeli authorities that Yahya Sinwar, the leader of Hamas in Gaza, intends to exploit a humanitarian crisis in the southern Gaza Strip. The outcome of this strategy would be substantial international pressure that could deter the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) from intensifying its operations in the Khan Yunis area, which serves as Sinwar’s main command center. The concern is that the Israeli forces might settle for a relatively limited operation, one that would not significantly harm Hamas’s vital assets.

Sinwar, the leader of Hamas in Gaza, is believed to be planning to delay the resumption of ground operations after the ceasefire, according to current assessments in Israel.

Within the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT) and the Foreign Ministry, there is a belief that several Arab and European countries are planning to bolster the southern Gaza Strip with humanitarian aid. Their aim is to assist more than a million refugees residing in the region.

I welcome the announcement of an agreement for the release of hostages and a humanitarian truce.

We are working tirelessly to release all hostages.

The humanitarian truce announced should allow to introduce aid and rescue the civilians in Gaza.

— Emmanuel Macron (@EmmanuelMacron) November 22, 2023

Officials from both of these bodies share the view that Hamas will wait for the arrival of the French field hospital, and the entry of international aid organizations and logistics forces from various countries. They anticipate that these events will trigger a campaign highlighting a humanitarian crisis in the region.

“Sinwar isn’t merely biding his time,” explained a knowledgeable source. “He’s actively seeking momentum. This is the trap he’s setting. The longer time passes, the more he will publicize images of a tent city to depict the southern Gaza Strip as an area experiencing an international humanitarian crisis. In this way, he intends to exert pressure on the IDF and thwart its attempts to intensify operations in the south.”

In such a tense situation, the IDF might opt for a relatively limited operation. Instead of targeting Khan Yunis or Rafah, it’s possible that the Israeli forces will focus on central camps, such as Nusseirat, Al-Burayj, and Deir al-Balah.

Alternatively, they might conduct limited operations in areas within the southern Gaza Strip that are not classified as humanitarian zones. However, such actions are unlikely to exert significant military pressure on Hamas and will, therefore, not contribute to the release of additional hostages. To apply direct pressure on Sinwar, the IDF would need to position tanks in the immediate vicinity of his command center, such as in Khan Yunis. If Sinwar does not perceive forces in control of the areas close to his location, he may doubt that the IDF intends to escalate operations in Khan Yunis. In such a scenario, the entry of maneuvering forces into an area housing a million refugees is considered particularly problematic.

There is a growing concern that diplomatic pressure could halt the IDF’s momentum. For instance, Jordan has already refused to open a Jordanian hospital in the vicinity of Shifa Hospital. This, to a large extent, constitutes the honey trap that Sinwar is preparing for the IDF, and it remains to be seen how Israel will navigate this situation, both militarily and diplomatically.

Israel’s billion dollar ‘Iron Wall’ was no match for a thousand Hamas terrorists on October 7th

In December 2021, Israel’s military said a high-tech upgrade to the barrier that had long surrounded the Gaza Strip would protect nearby Israeli residents from the threat of violence from militants. The upgrade cost $1 billion and took three years to complete. It was a complete and total failure.

At this moment, Israel is delivering the response they promised to give Hamas on October 7th., and they are liberating the people of Gaza. Why should there be a ceasefire?

We watched the amazing pro-Israel rally that took place on the National Mall the other day in Washington DC, topping out at around 290,000 in-person attendees, it was the largest rally of its kind in modern history. Love it, and really appreciated how peaceful it was. But looking elsewhere around the internet, it’s nothing but storm clouds on the horizon for the Jews in 2023.

“All thine enemies have opened their mouth against thee: they hiss and gnash the teeth: they say, We have swallowed her up: certainly this is the day that we looked for; we have found, we have seen it.” Lamentations 2:16 (KJB)

The world’s richest man, Elon Musk, made the headlines today, not for any great technological marvel or innovation, but for plain, old-fashioned, Dearborn Independent-style hatred of the Jews. One of his users on X tweeted ‘Jewish communities’ have been pushing the exact kind of dialectical hatred against whites that they claim to want people to stop using against them. ‘I’m deeply disinterested in giving the tiniest s*** now about western Jewish populations coming to the disturbing realization that those hordes of minorities that support flooding their country don’t exactly like them too much. ‘You want truth said to your face, there it is.’ To which Musk, who has 163 million followers, replied: ‘You have said the actual truth.’

You have said the actual truth

Last night, demon-possessed pro-Palestinian Democrats launched an attack on the Democratic National Committee headquarters in Washington DC. It was a brutal event with the police struggling to maintain order. It was like watching wild, rabid animals launching themselves into the abyss, ‘foaming out their own shame’ as the King James so beautifully puts it. Now, let’s talk ’bout that ceasefire that the United Nations is clamoring for.

At this moment, Israel is delivering the response they promised to give Hamas on October 7th. They are systematically dismantling the terror city of Gaza as they rout out Hamas terrorists. Israel is taking every precaution to keep civilian casualties as low as possible. So what is the uproar about? It’s about protecting Hamas, not about protecting Palestinians. If anything, what Israel and the IDF are doing is liberating the Palestinian people from Hamas. If the IDF stops now, and Hamas is allowed to exist, Israel loses. The landing on the beaches of Normandy was great, but without the Battle of Berlin it wouldn’t have stopped the Nazis.

From a prophecy perspective, all this has to happen and will keep happening until Jesus returns at the Second Advent as KING OF KINGS and LORD OF LORDS, with His body and bride the Church riding on white horses beside Him. But between now and that time, it will be nothing but ‘wars and rumours of wars’ until the start of the time of Jacob’s trouble. Jacob already had quite a bit of trouble at the moment, but it’s nothing compared to what’s coming. In the meantime, stay strong Israel, and absolutely no ceasefire until victory is won. Am Yisrael Chai.

The Biden administration has extended a sanctions waiver that will grant Iran access to roughly $10 billion from Iraq in exchange for ‘electricity purchases’.

Back in September, the Biden administration unfroze $6 billion in assets for Iran, and one month later the largest single-day attack on Jews since the Holocaust was carried out by Iranian proxy terror group Hamas in Gaza. Now the Biden people say the two events have nothing to do with each other, but obviously, that’s not entirely accurate. The $6 billion may not have been spent on the Hamas attack on Israel, but certainly knowing the money was coming in emboldened Iran to push forward while they waited.

“And now will I shew thee the truth. Behold, there shall stand up yet three kings in Persia; and the fourth shall be far richer than they all: and by his strength through his riches he shall stir up all against the realm of Grecia.” Daniel 11:2 (KJB)

For the past forty years, Iran has operated an ‘Axis Of Resistance’ against the nation of Israel, funding and mobilizing terror groups like Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad to wage war on the Jews. The IDF has committed roughly 50% of their military to rout out Hamas as they recapture Gaza City, as the US military sits in the Mediterranean Sea on standby. It is the consistent weakness of the Biden administration in foreign policy and with Iran that created the atmosphere for the October 7th terror attack to take place. Biden treats the Iranians exactly the same way that the Obama administration did, and that emboldens and foments acts of Islamic terror. So let’s see what Iran will do with this $10 billion sanctions waiver, and whether or not they’ll spend it on ‘electricity purchases’ for the Iranian people.

Biden admin renews sanctions waiver giving Iran access to $10 billion from Iraq

FROM THE NY POST: The 120-day waiver, signed by Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Tuesday, is identical to one issued in July, but comes amid increased attacks against US forces by Iranian proxies and just over a month after Iran-backed terror group Hamas slaughtered 1,200 people in Israel on Oct. 7.

Under the conditions of the waiver, Iran will receive nearly $10 billion being held in escrow accounts in Iraq that may only be used for humanitarian trade, US officials told the Associated Press.

The waiver extension will also allow the Iranian regime to transfer the electricity payments to accounts in Oman, which can then be converted to other currencies for the Islamic Republic to purchase non-sanctioned products, according to the outlet. US officials noted that Blinken signed the waiver primarily because the Biden administration doesn’t want Iraq to be cut off from a critical source of energy. State Department spokesman Matthew Miller defended the waiver extension, arguing that the money “can only benefit the Iranian people.”

“They get their hands on zero additional dollars as a result of these waivers. Again, none of these funds are sent to Iran. They are held in third-party accounts outside Iran, and can be used only for humanitarian and other non-sanctionable purposes for the benefits of the Iranian people,” Miller said during a press briefing.

The State Department official also argued that Iran would continue “destabilizing activities” regardless of whether the waiver was issued.

US troops in Iraq and Syria have come under attack by Iranian proxies at least 55 times since Oct. 17, leaving some 59 personnel injured, according to the Pentagon.

In September, President Biden unfroze $6 billion in funds for Iran in exchange for the release of five American detainees. Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi promptly declared that Tehran would use the money “wherever we need it,” leading to concerns that the regime would spend the funds for nefarious purposes. READ MORE
