QUESTION: Are we being primed for some future event/agenda/incident? One that the DC SWAMP and Globalists need the public on their side, to pull off?
Because, the Biden Coup, LSD's and the Globalists have all of this blood and 10's of 1000's of other relate deaths on their hands.
Using OPEN BORDERS
They have created and even funded a traveling death march for illegal immigrants, promoted open sex trafficking of kids and women, brought in murders, rapist, Pedophiles and dozens of violent criminal gangs.
All while trying to abolish our 1st, 2nd Amendments, running a Scamdemic, forcing a deadly DNA based Clot Shot on 100's of Millions and rigging elections.
Given its history, a person would have to be a complete IDIOT or Anti-USA, to support or vote for the New Democrat Party.

Guatemala used to be notorious for unsolved homicides of women and girls. It was a world leader. That may not be up to date, though, as the pace of slaughter might have slowed down during the Biden Administration.

French National Front founder Jean-Marie Le Pen dies at 96 Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[Regnum] The founder and former leader of the French party "National Front" ("National Union") Jean-Marie Le Pen has died at the age of 96. This was reported on January 7 by the France Presse agency, citing the politician's family.
"Jean-Marie Le Pen... [died] at 12:00 (14:00 Moscow time) on Tuesday, surrounded by his family," the publication says.
It is noted that on the day of his death, the politician was in a medical facility in the commune of Garches (department of Hauts-de-Seine), to which he had been taken several weeks earlier. His daughter Marine Le Pen, who is the head of the parliamentary faction of the "National Rally", was on a visit to Mayotte (overseas department of France) that day. At that time, there was a collision between two barges, on one of which Le Pen was.
As reported by the Regnum news agency, in April 2024, Jean-Marie Le Pen was placed under guardianship due to his deteriorating health. The corresponding decision was made by the court at the request of the politician's family after a medical examination.
Le Pen was born on June 20, 1928, and became the youngest member of the French parliament in 1956. He also became the leader of the National Front party in 1972.
The politician was a supporter of extreme right-wing views and during his political career he took part in the French presidential elections five times as a candidate for this post. In 2002, Le Pen managed to get to the second round of the presidential elections, but he received only 17.8% of the votes and lost to Jacques Chirac.
In 2011, the politician handed over the leadership of the National Front to his daughter, and he was expelled from it in 2015. The National Front was renamed the National Rally in 2018.
[HODHODYEMENNEWS.NET] The Yemen ...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of... i Armed Forces have carried out several military operations targeting the US aircraft carrier "Truman" and several military and vital targets of the Israeli enemy in "Yaffa and Ashkelon" with a number of drones and cruise missiles.
The Yemeni armed forces issued the following statement:
"In support of the oppressed Paleostinian people and their Mujahideen, and in response to the massacres against our people in Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response... , and as part of the fifth phase of supportive actions in the Battle of the Promised Conquest and the Holy Jihad.
The missile and UAVs forces of the Yemeni Armed Forces carried out a specific and joint military operation targeting the American aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman using two winged missiles and four drones North of the Red Sea, while the American enemy was preparing to launch a major air attack against our country, and the operation led to the failure of the attack.
The UAVs force carried out two military operations this afternoon, the first of which targeted a military target linked to the Israeli enemy in the occupied area of Yaffa with two drones.
The other operation targeted a vital target linked to the Israeli enemy in occupied Ashkelon with a drone.
In another context, the UAVs force carried out a third military operation this evening targeting a military target linked to the Israeli enemy in the occupied Yaffa with a drone.
The operations of the Armed Forces have successfully achieved their objectives.
The Yemeni Armed Forces will continue their operations in support of the Paleostinian resistance, and these operations will not stop until the aggression on Gaza stops and the siege is lifted."
The launches may have been successful, but the IDF is confused because they never saw the things anywhere near Israel.

It’s an ugly culture — petty and mean to create in ways large and small the idea that the dhimmis are or soon will be conquered.
[IsraelTimes] Anti-Israel graffiti and swastikas daubed on bicycles in Jewish neighborhoods of Australian city for over a year; community leaders accuse operator Lime of not tackling problem.
Lime doesn’t care, the local and national Labour politicians don’t care…
Vandals have turned an electric bike-sharing program in the Australian city of Sydney into a platform to target the local Jewish community with anti-Israel and antisemitic graffiti, with complaints that the bike operators are not doing anything to counter the problem for over a year, a report said Tuesday.
Bikes are being defaced and then driven around or left in neighborhoods with large Jewish populations, the Australian Telegraph newspaper reported.
Speaking truth to power and discomfiting the comfortably smug haters.
The bikes are daubed with swastikas or slogans such as “Israel is hell,” “Zionists are Nazis” and “Israel is a terrorist state.”
They have been seen in Bondi, Rose Bay Coogee, Kensington, Maroubra, and Randwick.
Attacks on Australia’s Jewish community have proliferated since Hamas’s October 7, 2023, massacre in Israel. Cars and buildings have been vandalized and torched around Australia during protests against Israel that have often targeted the Jewish community, and in December a synagogue was set on fire in Melbourne in what authorities described as a terrorist act.
The Australian Jewish Association told the paper it had received hundreds of complaints about the bikes since the start of the Gaza war.
It claimed that the private company operating the bikes, Lime, has ignored requests to remove the graffiti.
“They are placed in areas where Jewish families live or near synagogues to intimidate the Jewish community,” AJA CEO Robert Gregory said.
“If the graffiti was on a public building, it would be removed but Lime bikes and others have created a loophole that vandals are exploiting,” he charged. “The share bike companies are effectively providing permanent billboards to spread hate and division and target the Jewish community.”
Because a private company is operating the bikes, the council and police are not able to clean up the vandalism, according to the report.
However, a spokeswoman for Lime said the company is taking the matter seriously.
“We are horrified at the anti-Semitic vandalism occurring on buildings, vehicles, and signage across the City and thank every community member for alerting our local teams to vandalism on our e-bikes,” she said.
If the things are rented with a credit card, it’s easy enough to add an additional charge to the last user for collection, cleaning and repainting, and a deliberate damage surcharge. Hit them all up and the problem will stop, especially if some of those charged are not the ones who actually damaged the e-bikes. A class action suit by the Jewish communities against the company would certainly bring the pain home in that quarter as well, if such a thing is possible under Australian law. Or helpfully spray every one that appears a pretty colour to cover up the the offensive language, since the painting the bikes is apparently acceptable.
A record 22 people were shot dead by German police in 2024, according to a report by the news agency dpa based on law enforcement records, more than in any other year this century.
It is more than double the total recorded in 2023, when 10 people were killed; 11 were neutralized in 2022 and eight in 2021, according to the report published on Tuesday.
According to statistics from the Civil Rights and Police publication, the 2024 fatalities may represent the highest annual total since German reunification in 1990. The previous record highs were 19 deaths in both 1995 and 1999.
Many of these incidents involved individuals in psychological distress, often armed with knives. For example, a 31-year-old woman was shot in a Munich supermarket; she’d had prior encounters with law enforcement due to mental health and drug-related issues.
On the final day of 2024, German police were involved in a fatal shooting in Grünsfeld, a small town in the southern state of Baden-Württemberg, where a 38-year-old man stole an excavator, caused extensive damage, and injured officers during a prolonged chase.
This incident occurred just days after the Magdeburg Christmas market attack on December 20, 2024, where a car was driven into a crowd, resulting in six deaths and over 200 injuries. The suspect in the Magdeburg attack, a 50-year-old Saudi doctor, was arrested at the scene.
Jochen Kopelke, head of the German Police Union (GdP), told Welt in October that the rise in fatal shootings could be linked to an increase in societal violence. He noted that officers are facing more aggressive attacks and, in escalating situations, are often forced to act decisively to neutralize threats.
Recent police statistics indicate a significant rise in violent crime in Germany, local media reported. In 2023, it reached a 15-year high, with 214,099 cases reported, marking an 8.6% increase from the previous year. The overall crime rate saw a 5.5% rise, totaling 5.94 million cases, the highest since 2016.

Psychological distress armed with knives sounds like unacknowledged Moslem colonists running amok. In which case the German police ae reacting not only logically , but wisely as well.
[JustTheNews] A rocket launcher and “rocket-propelled grenades” were headed into Mexico before it was thwarted by United States Customs and Border Protection in Nogales, Ariz.
CBP explained that the weapons taken on Dec. 28 would likely be used to support the drug cartels.
“Great interception!” Port Director Michael W. Humphries tweeted on Tuesday.
“CBP officers working outbound operations at the Nogales POE seized a rocket launcher and 2 rocket-propelled grenades hidden in a car headed to Mexico. The cache was likely intended to protect the cartels and their fentanyl production labs in Mexico,” he continued.
The confiscation comes at a time when President-elect Donald Trump is vowing for major policy changes at the border, including dubbing the cartels as terrorist organizations, according to Reuters. The decision to escalate what the cartels are classified as could signal a change in strategy in how the U.S. government faces them, as the groups are already major causes for illicit drug trafficking into the country.
In addition, the Republican is expected to bring back the “Remain in Mexico” policy for migrants crossing illegally and resume the construction of the border wall.
The Port of Nogales is considered a hub for trade and migration in the Tucson sector of Arizona.

If we pick up 20 percent of the contraband at the border, only 4 RPG launchers made it through. Guess I’ll watch my sports in TV until this all shakes out.

RPG launchers don’t explode. They are just pointing sticks. The grenades that you load into them are the problem. As we learned early in the GWOT, you can actually launch the grenades without the launcher Inshallah style.

[Rudaw] Iraqi warplanes carried out several airstrikes Tuesday against suspected Islamic State (ISIS) cells in the Hamrin Mountains of Kirkuk province, the army said, as Baghdad continues cracking down on jihadist cells.
The air force “carried our airstrikes using F-16 aircraft targeting the retreating defeated terrorist ISIS gangs in the Hamrin Mountains within the Kirkuk Operations Command sector,” the country’s Security Media Cell said in a statement.
The strikes killed “a number” of suspected ISIS members while destroying their positions, the cell added.
The operation was carried out with support from the US-led international coalition.
Despite its territorial defeat, ISIS has continued to pose a security threat in Iraq through hit-and-run attacks, bombings, and abductions, particularly in the disputed territories that stretch across several provinces including Diyala, Salahaddin, Kirkuk, and Nineveh.
The strike was the second on Hamrin Mountains this year, after another suspected ISIS hideout was struck by Iraqi warplanes on Friday.
On Saturday, Iraqi and Kurdish security forces detained four suspected ISIS members.
[NY Post] The Israeli military said Wednesday that troops have recovered the body of a hostage held in Gaza and were examining whether another body recovered was also that of a captive.
Earlier, Israel’s defense minister said that troops recovered the bodies of two hostages.
The military said the body of Yosef Al Zaydani was brought to Israel on Tuesday after being discovered in an underground tunnel near the southern Gaza city of Rafah.
It said troops uncovered information about Al Zaydani’s son Hamzah that "raised serious concerns for his life."
Military spokesman Col. Nadav Shoshani said the military was looking into the identity of a second set of remains recovered.
The body’s recovery comes as Israel and Hamas are considering a ceasefire deal that would free the hostages and halt the fighting in Gaza.
However, Yosef and Hamzah Al Zaydani were believed to still be alive and their return could ramp up the pressure on Israel to move ahead on a deal.
Yosef Al Zaydani’s name was on a list of 34 hostages shared by a Hamas official with The Associated Press that the group said were slated for release.

[IsraelTimes] Earlier this evening, the Israeli Air Force carried out several strikes in the Khan Younis area of southern Gaza, targeting terrorists who participated in the October 7, 2023, onslaught, the military says.
The airstrikes were carried out following intelligence provided by the Military Intelligence Directorate and the Shin Bet security agency.
The IDF says it took steps to mitigate civilian harm in the strikes, including by using “munitions adapted to the type of strike,” aerial surveillance, and other intelligence.
Palestinian media report several casualties in the strikes.
The strikes come as part of efforts led by the Shin Bet to track down and eliminate all the terrorists who took part in the massacre on October 7, 2023.
[IsraelTimes] While Witkoff says progress made in Doha, Hamas stands by demand for permanent end to war, which Israel rejects; president-elect: ‘It won’t be good for anyone’ if no deal by Jan. 20
Incoming US envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff announced Tuesday that he will travel to Doha later this week, saying a hostage deal being mediated by Qatar ...an emirate on the east coast of the Arabian Peninsula. It sits on some really productive gas and oil deposits, which produces the highest per capita income in the world. They piss it all away on religion, financing the Moslem Brotherhood and several al-Qaeda affiliates. Home of nutbag holy manYusuf al-Qaradawi... is on the verge of completion, as US President-elect Donald Trump ...The tack in the backside of the Democratic Party... again warned "all hell will break loose" in the region if an agreement between Israel and Hamas ..the braying voice of Islamic Resistance®,... is not reached by his January 20 inauguration.
"We’re making a lot of progress, and I don’t want to say too much because I think they’re doing a really good job back in Doha. I’m leaving tomorrow to go back to Doha, but I think that we’ve had some really great progress, and I’m really hopeful that by the inaugural, we’ll have some good things to announce on behalf of the president," Witkoff said, after Trump called on him to provide an update on the negotiations during a presser at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Florida.
Witkoff said he would leave for Qatar either Tuesday or Wednesday night. Delegations from Israel and Hamas have been in the Gulf state since the weekend.
While Trump and his team are not formally part of the ongoing negotiations, they have been cooperating with the outgoing Biden administration, and Witkoff has traveled to the region several times since his appointment in November.
"We’re working in tandem in a really good way; but it’s the president — his reputation, the things that he has said — that [is] driving this negotiation; so hopefully it’ll all work out, and we’ll save some lives," Witkoff added. "The red lines [Trump] put out there — that’s driving this negotiation."
Witkoff appeared to be referring to Trump’s December 3 Truth Social post in which he threatened "ALL HELL TO PAY in the Middle East," if the 100 remaining hostages in Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response... weren’t released by January 20.
Pressed on what has been holding up the talks to date, Witkoff declined to get into specifics. "I believe we’ve been on the verge of [a deal]. I don’t want to discuss what’s delayed it — no point to be negative in any way."
Asked whether the parties are waiting to reach a deal until Trump is in office, Witkoff responded, "No, I think they heard him loud and clear. [This] better get done by the inaugural."
At this point, Trump piped back in to reissue his threat to Hamas.
"All hell will break out in the Middle East, and it will not be good for Hamas, and it will not be good — frankly —for anyone," Trump said.
Witkoff addressed several news hounds after the presser, and one quoted him as saying the deal that the mediators are trying to ink before the inauguration would last 42 days, in what would be the first time that someone involved in the negotiations has gone on the record to specify the exact number of days that the ceasefire agreement would last. The deal was previously understood to extend for around six or seven weeks.
The Trump envoy said Qatar is leading the mediation effort along with the Biden White House’s Mideast czar Brett McGurk, who is also in Doha. Witkoff made a point of praising Qatar’s mediation efforts, while not mentioning Egypt, which is another mediator, but has apparently played less of a central role in this latest round of talks.
Witkoff is a real estate executive who also has business ties to sovereign wealth funds in Qatar and the United Arab Emirates.
HAMAS OFFICIAL URGES TRUMP TO BE MORE ’DIPLOMATIC’
Funny!
Israel and Hamas meanwhile accused each other of blocking a deal by adhering to conditions that torpedoed all previous negotiations.
Hamas said it would free its remaining hostages only if Israel agrees to end the war and withdraw all its troops from the Gaza Strip. Israel says it will not end the war until Hamas is dismantled and all hostages are free.
"Hamas is the only obstacle to the release of the hostages," the director general of Israel’s foreign ministry, Eden Bar Tal, told a briefing with news hounds, saying Israel was fully committed to reaching a deal.
Hamas official Osama Hamdan, who held a news conference in Algiers, said Israel was to blame for undermining all efforts to reach a deal.
While he said he would not give details about the latest round of negotiations, he reiterated the Hamas conditions of "a complete end to the aggression and a full withdrawal from lands the occupation invaded."
Commenting on Trump’s threat that there would be "hell to pay" unless all hostages were freed before the inauguration, Hamdan said, "I think the US president must make more disciplined and diplomatic statements."
Hamdan added that Hamas and its supporters in Gaza are not afraid of Trump’s threats "because they already live in hell" in the Strip.
On Monday, a forum representing the vast majority of hostage families held a presser during which relatives of four captives called on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government to pursue a comprehensive deal that would see all of their loved ones released, blasting the framework Jerusalem is currently pursuing that would only free roughly one-third of the captives during a temporary ceasefire.
While Hamas has long pushed for a permanent ceasefire, officials familiar with the talks have told The Times of Israel that the terror group has indicated willingness in recent weeks to prioritize the first stage of the three-phase deal that has been under discussion since May.
A senior Arab diplomat said on Sunday that Hamas had approved a list of 34 hostages it was prepared to free as part of the deal. The list included female Israeli soldiers, plus elderly, female and minor-aged civilians, Rooters reported, citing a Hamas official.
A Saudi news outlet subsequently published what it said was the aforementioned list. Netanyahu’s office says it has yet to receive any list from Hamas, which it says is a precondition for any deal to advance.
Some of the names on the list published in Arabic media were of slain hostages. Hamas has insisted that it does not know where all of the hostages are, but would be able to ascertain their locations and conditions if Israel agrees to a brief ceasefire. Israel has rejected the idea, insisting that Hamas knows where all of the hostages are.
Israel is seeking to maximize the number of living hostages who will be released as part of the deal, while Hamas is looking to hold onto as many hostages as possible, as long as Israel plans to resume fighting once the temporary ceasefire is over. Israeli intelligence assesses that as many as half of the hostages are still alive.
The deal being discussed would see the release of the remaining female, elderly and maimed hostages in exchange for hundreds of Paleostinian security prisoners and a partial IDF withdrawal from Gaza.
Netanyahu’s office has preferred the temporary ceasefire framework, with the premier arguing that ending the war permanently in exchange for all of the hostages would allow Hamas to regain control of Gaza. Repeated polls have indicated that the majority of the Israeli public rejects Netanyahu’s approach.
Much of Israel’s security establishment has maintained that Netanyahu’s prosecution of the war contains no exit strategy since he has refused to advance a viable alternative to Hamas’s rule, thereby allowing the terror group to repeatedly return to areas briefly cleared by the IDF. The security establishment and the international community have pushed for allowing the Paleostinian Authority, which enjoys limited governing powers over parts of the West Bank, to gain a foothold in Gaza in order to replace Hamas.
Netanyahu has rejected the idea out of hand, likening the PA — which backs a two-state solution — to Hamas. His far-right coalition partners have backed collapsing the PA entirely and would likely threaten to collapse the government if he considers empowering Ramallah.
The security establishment has also backed a more comprehensive deal to free the hostages, arguing that the IDF can return to Gaza if need be and that putting off the release of two-thirds of the hostages not freed in a temporary deal would likely be a death sentence ...the barbaric practice of sentencing a murderer to be punished for as long as his/her/its victim is dead... for them.
The ceasefire that US, Qatari, and Egyptian mediators are trying to advance is still within the three-staged framework, but Israel this time around is much more open about the second and third phases not coming immediately after the first one.
Hamas is demanding assurances from the mediators that there will be some linkage between the first and subsequent phases, as it seeks a permanent ceasefire. Qatar hosted Israeli and Hamas delegations over the weekend for talks, but no breakthroughs have been reported.
IDF THREATENS MORE MILITARY PRESSURE TO BREAK HAMAS
Earlier Tuesday, IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi told officers during a visit to northern Gaza’s Jabalia that the military was working to bring Hamas "to the point where it will understand that it needs to [release] all the hostages, otherwise the very professional work you are doing will continue and continue, and it means more prisoners and more dead operatives."
"I look at the situation that Hamas is in, they see every day what you are doing to them and they understand that this thing is close to being unbearable," Halevi said.
For over a year, Israeli officials have insisted that military pressure is what will convince Hamas to release the hostages. Military pressure has indeed intensified since the first hostage deal was reached in November 2023 when over 100 captives were released during a week-long pause in the fighting. Since then, though, the only hostages freed were seven in three separate rescue operations. Other hostages were executed by Hamas as they identified IDF troops approaching, and some were accidentally killed in Israeli Arclight airstrike ...KABOOM!... s. The IDF did recover the bodies of roughly three dozen slain hostages.
Israeli military strikes killed at least 10 Paleostinians across the Gaza Strip on Tuesday, medics said, as the Hamas-run health ministry in Gaza called for international donors to immediately provide fuel it said was needed to maintain medical services.
One of those strikes killed four people in a house in Beach camp in Gaza City, while the remaining six were killed in separate strikes across the enclave, medics said.
The health ministry said hospitals were running out of fuel to operate generators and maintain medical services across Gaza because of Israeli restrictions.
Israel has repeatedly said it facilitated the delivery of fuel and medical supplies to hospitals in the enclave, even in areas where forces have active operations.
On Tuesday, the military said its forces had detained 240 Paleostinians in a raid on Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza last month, and they had provided "substantial intelligence."
The military released footage of the interrogation of a purported Hamas bad boy who detailed how snuffies "operated from the hospital area" and transferred weapons to and from it.
[IsraelTimes] Staff Sgt. Ido Samiach, 20, slain in battle, bringing ground op death toll to 398; military says after months in Beit Lahiya and Beit Hanoun, Kfir Brigade preparing for other ops
An IDF soldier was killed on Tuesday fighting in Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response... , as the military announced it was pulling a brigade from the northern Strip in order to prepare for future operations.
The slain soldier was named as Staff Sgt. Ido Samiach, 20, a team sergeant in the Nahal Brigade’s reconnaissance unit, from Ganei Tikva, killed in northern Gaza.
The previous day, two other soldiers — Cpt. Eitan Israel Shiknazi, 24, and Maj. Dvir Zion Revah, 28 — were killed fighting in northern Gaza’s Beit Hanoun. The latest death brings Israel’s toll in the ground offensive against Hamas ..the braying voice of Islamic Resistance®,... in Gaza and in military operations along the border with the Strip to 398.
The Hamas-run Gaza health ministry claimed Tuesday that 31 people were killed in the Strip over the past 24 hours, including four killed in an Arclight airstrike ...KABOOM!... on a house in Gaza City.
Also Tuesday, the IDF said the Kfir Brigade has been withdrawn from the northern Gaza Strip after 64 days of fighting, though an operation in the area led by the 162nd Division is still ongoing. According to the IDF, the Kfir Brigade killed more than 300 terror operatives during their operations in the towns of Beit Lahiya and Beit Hanoun and in the Sheikh Zayed neighborhood.
Among the dead operatives are many prominent members of terror groups, including some who participated in the October 7, 2023, onslaught, the IDF said.
During the two-month operation, 12 soldiers with the brigade were killed in six separate incidents of fighting, and dozens more were maimed, though many have since returned to service, according to the IDF.
The military said the brigade’s operations were aimed at removing threats to residents of Israeli communities close to the Gaza border in the Strip’s north.
The brigade was responsible for demolishing the so-called officers’ neighborhood, where Hamas commanders had lived. The residential complex of high-rise towers had served as a "central terror complex" with anti-tank firing positions, booby traps, tunnels and rocket launchers aimed at Israel, according to the military.
The IDF said the brigade demolished other Hamas infrastructure, including 7.5 kilometers’ (4.6 miles’) worth of tunnels, and captured numerous weapons. The Kfir Brigade is now preparing for future operations in Gaza, the IDF said, including being deployed to the Philadelphi Corridor in the Strip’s south.
Meanwhile COGAT, the Israeli government’s liaison to the Paleostinians, said Tuesday that it had facilitated the transfer of some 1,100 truckloads of humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip over the past week.
"In accordance with a directive of the political echelon, efforts to transfer aid to the Gaza Strip continue in coordination with COGAT," it said in a statement. "As part of these efforts, over 1,070 humanitarian aid trucks carrying food, water, medical supplies, and shelter equipment were brought into Gaza over the past week, with more than 1,100 trucks unloaded on the Gazook side of the crossings."
COGAT vowed to "continue working to allow and facilitate the entry of humanitarian aid into the Gaza Strip in collaboration with aid organizations and the international community." It said that all of the shipments were thoroughly inspected by the Defense Ministry’s Land Crossings Authority.
A Hamas official on Tuesday reiterated the group’s long-held demand for Israel to completely end its war in Gaza in order to reach any deal to free the 100 hostages still held there.
Hamas official Osama Hamdan, who held a news conference in Algiers, said Israel was to blame for undermining all efforts to reach a deal.
While he said he would not give details about the latest round of negotiations, he reiterated the Hamas conditions of "a complete end to the aggression and a full withdrawal from lands the occupation invaded."
Commenting on US President-elect Donald Trump ...Oh, noze! Not him!... ’s threat that there would be "hell to pay" unless all hostages were freed before the inauguration, Hamdan said: "I think the US president must make more disciplined and diplomatic statements."
[IsraelTimes] IDF says 3 Palestinian gunmen killed in drone strike, gun battle amid counterterror operation; IDF soldier seriously wounded; perpetrators of al-Fundaq shooting still on the lam
As Israel Defense Forces troops carried out counterterrorism raids across the West Bank, Defense Minister Israel Katz visited on Tuesday the site of a deadly terror attack in the Paleostinian village of al-Funduq, which he said was an "act of war" that will be answered in kind.
Two elderly women and an off-duty cop were killed and eight Israelis were maimed when Paleostinian Death Eaters opened fire on vehicles as they passed through the village on Monday.
The three perpetrators from the Jenin area of the northern West Bank are still on the lam.
"The despicable, murderous terror attack that occurred here yesterday is an act of war for all intents and purposes, and it will be answered accordingly," Katz said in remarks provided by his office.
"We will hit the Death Eaters and those who sent them, and we will act powerfully against the places from where the Death Eaters came," he said.
Far-right government members and settler leaders have called for military action in the West Bank resembling that taken in the Gazoo

The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response... Strip, where the IDF has evacuated and destroyed entire cities that it said had become terror strongholds.
According to a preliminary IDF probe, the terrorists, armed with assault rifles, initially shot up a civilian car from a close range, killing Rachel Cohen, 73, and Aliza Raiz, 70.
They then fired at a bus farther away, injuring eight people, at which point an armed civilian opened fire with a handgun, causing the button men to get back in their car and flee.
While the Death Eaters were escaping, they opened fire on another car, killing off-duty police officer Master Sgt. Elad Yaakov Winkelstein, 35.
The military said it had launched a manhunt for the three perpetrators, two of whom were already wanted for involvement in terror activity, while the third was still unidentified.
The army said it set up roadblocks near the attack site, and placed cordons around the city of Nablus and several other nearby villages.
Amid an apparently unrelated operation overnight, the IDF said it killed two Paleostinian button men who were shooting at troops in the town of Tamun, in the Jordan Valley, during a brigade-level counterterrorism raid in the area.
The military said the group of button men was targeted with a dronezap. Several suspects were detained and weapons were seized during the operation, the military said.
[HODHODYEMENNEWS.NET] The Israeli occupation army acknowledged on Monday evening the death of an officer and a soldier during festivities with Paleostinian resistance fighters in northern Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response... The occupation forces reported that Cpt. Eitan Israel Shiknazi, 24, a deputy company commander in the Nahal Brigade's 932nd Battalion was killed in battles in northern Gaza's Beit Hanoun along with another soldier whose name will be disclosed at a later time, according to the Israeli newspaper ''Yedioth Ahronoth''
Two additional soldiers were seriously maimed in the same incident, the paper added.
Despite the passage of three months since the expansion of the Israeli aggression on northern Gaza, the Paleostinian resistance continues to resist and carry out operations against the Israeli enemy forces.
The resistance also releases video clips documenting some of its operations, which result in casualties among the occupation forces, who continue committing crimes and atrocities against civilians amid a suffocating blockade.

[IsraelTimes] The majority of Iran’s forces have withdrawn from Syria over the past month and various armed groups backed by Tehran have disbanded following the fall of the Assad regime, the Wall Street Journal reports.
For years, Iran propped up deposed president Bashar al-Assad, while at the same time using Syria as a vital land route through which it could smuggle weapons to the Hezbollah terror group in Lebanon. As such, thousands of Iranian fighters and members of Iran-backed groups were present across Syria when a rebel offensive overthrew the decades-old Assad regime in December.
At the time of the rebel victory over Assad, fighters from Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps were mainly stationed in eastern Syria, the WSJ reports, citing Western and Arab officials. Stationed alongside them were Iraqi, Lebanese, Afghan and Syrian militia forces.
The majority of those stationed in eastern Syria have since fled across the border to al-Qaim in Iraq, the report states, while IRGC forces previously stationed in Aleppo have returned to Tehran. It adds that Hezbollah troops that had been stationed in western Syria returned to Lebanon by road.
The WSJ adds that Iraq’s embassy in Washington and the Iraqi foreign ministry did not respond to a request for comment, while the Iranian mission to the UN declined to comment on the withdrawal of its forces.
[HODHODYEMENNEWS.NET] Israeli occupation forces continued to expand into new towns in the Quneitra countryside, southern Syria, overnight (Sunday-Monday).
Syrian activists and media reports revealed that Zionist occupation forces entered the village of Kudna, south of Quneitra, with armored vehicles, bulldozed tens of dunams of forest land, and worked to excavate sites in Tal Ahmar and the surrounding area.
This came amid attempts by villagers to prevent the occupation forces from advancing towards their villages after the new rulers of Syria turned a blind eye to the Israeli enemy's occupation of Syrian lands.
In a related context, the Syrian Human Rights Observatory reported that Zionist forces erected dirt barriers along the road leading to the village's forest area, causing the closure of schools and disrupting the entire educational process.
The Observatory reported that the Israeli occupation forces arrested a young man from the al-Alia town in the countryside of Daraa, without providing any information about the reason for his arrest.
