That rocket launchers were found at U.N. facilities is hardly surprising. Fifteen years ago, the Gaza-based employees of the U.N. Relief and Works Agency held elections to determine its union leaders. Hamas took advantage of the campaign and took over the entire school system. By 2012, more the 90 percent of UNRWA employees had become Hamas supporters. As a result of the takeover, Hamas created an entire apparatus whose mission was to maintain its grip on all the Gaza-based UNRWA schools….

Introduction While the deterioration in Israel-Turkey relations over the past decade is rooted in many factors, perhaps what exemplifies this deterioration most is the closeness forged between the Justice and Development Partyled government and Hamas. The Mavi Marmara incident of May 2010, which sparked the deep crisis in Israel-Turkey relations that has persisted since, should be seen against the backdrop of this relationship. Hence, understanding the dynamics underlying Turkey-Hamas…
How to lose battles and gain sympathizers
By: Victor Davis Hanson
Once again neighboring enemies are warring in diametrically opposite ways. Hamas sees the death of its civilians as an advantage; Israel sees the death of its civilians as a disaster. Defensive missiles explode to save civilians in Israel; in Gaza, civilians are placed at risk of death to protect offensive missiles. Hamas wins by losing lots of its people; Israel loses by losing a few of its own. Hamas digs tunnels in premodern fashion; Israel uses postmodern high technology to detect…

The sources said Hamas troops have also opened fire on those who demanded food rations. On July 28, two…

Officials said the community assessed that Deif returned to leadership months after the Israeli assassination of Hamas commander Ahmed Jabari in 2012. “Deif is the only one with the authority to lead the terrorists,” an official said. “Those around him take…
Israel has sought to halt Hamas’ cyber warfare campaign. Military sources said Hamas and its allies have engaged in daily cyber attacks against critical facilities in Israel. They said targets have included Israel’s government, military and financial institutions. “Hamas is gaining skills in cyber warfare although not anywhere near those of Iran and Hizbullah,” a source said.

Today I am feeling a far greater certainty that our government is going to see through this war to its necessary end. That our prime minister is working with resolve, looking first at the people of our nation and not over his shoulder at Obama, or the UN.Another 16,000 reservists have been called up and more troops were deployed in Gaza today. We are stepping up the pace of the fighting, and expanding the arena of battle, at the same time that we are seeking and destroying tunnels. Credit:…

In on the occasion of the traditional New Year (Nowruz) holiday last week, Secretary of State John Kerry exposed a secret that journalists and academics have been agonizing over for the past six weeks: the fact that his daughter has married an Iranian-American who has extensive family ties to Iran. “I am proud of the Iranian-Americans in my own family, and grateful for how they have enriched my life,” Kerry said in the official statement. Kerry also said he was “strongly…
