Hamas says it’s stepping down from Gaza. Nobody’s buying it.
Hamas announced Monday the resignation of its Gaza “Emergency Committee,” the Hamas-run administrative body governing the Strip, in what the terror group described as a step toward transferring authority to the technocratic National Committee for the Administration of Gaza (NCAG). The announcement addresses one of the central conditions of the ceasefire brokered by President Trump in October 2025, yet mounting evidence shows Hamas has no intention of relinquishing actual control over Gaza. Ismail al-Thawabta, head of Hamas’s government media office, told AFP that Mohammed al-Farra, head of the government’s emergency committee, “has officially submitted his resignation.”

Trump updated Netanyahu on current American moves in the Gulf and the United States’s attacks against Iranian assets, the statement said, while Netanyahu warned Trump against approving the F-35 deal with Turkey.
Bent On Destruction: The Iranian Regime Says It Has ‘No Choice But To Build A Nuclear Bomb’
The Islamic Republic of Iran has long mastered the art of deception, particularly when it comes to its nuclear program. Many times, it has been caught advancing its nuclear ambitions behind closed doors—from covert enrichment facilities to undeclared sites—only, when exposed, to delay, deflect, and deny. Now, the regime is not even hiding it. In the midst of negotiations between the US and Iran, the Iranian regime says it has “no choice but to build the nuclear bomb.”
Nigel Farage: Labour is running the UK as if it were a communist country
he said, “I am the most physically and verbally attacked public figure or politician of modern times.” He mentioned one or two incidents that have been widely publicised and then said, “you only know about a fraction of the number of times that I’ve been assaulted.” “Over the last year, it’s got worse with an attack on my home, very similar to the one that the prime minister suffered, and literally daily online calls for me to be murdered. For some reason, that doesn’t seem to worry the police,” he said.
“It is like living in a communist country,” Mr. Farage said. “We’ve been subject in the last few months to the use of illegally obtained information, firm evidence of computer hacking, and now leaks from government agencies.
Return To War: Iran Fires Ballistic Missiles At Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, Jordan, After US Struck 170 Iranian Targets
Just as the US nighttime strikes were significantly bigger than prior rounds in June, so has Iran’s ‘retaliation’ been bigger – chiefly on Gulf states and American bases there. In the overnight and Thursday daytime hours, Iranian ballistic missiles and drones have targeted Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, and even faraway Jordan. The country is reporting that it has intercepted several missiles, which targeted Muwaffaq Salti Air Base – jointly operated by US and Jordanian forces. Oil prices have persisted above prewar levels on Thursday. U.S. forces have struck more than 170 Iranian military targets in the past two days, including air defense systems, drone and missile storage sites, military speed boats, and logistics infrastructure along the coast near the Strait of Hormuz, according to the U.S. Central Command.
“Results Were Tempered”: Pepsi Blames US Snack Slump On Cash-Strapped Consumers
PepsiCo blamed the second-quarter slowdown in its North American food unit on consumers tightening their belts. The period was marked by elevated pump prices tied to the US-Iran war, a squeeze that hit lower-income households the hardest and weighed on discretionary snack and beverage purchases. Revenue in the company’s North American food unit fell 2%, while volumes remained flat, even as the junk food giant slashed prices on some of its brands by as much as 15% earlier this year to lure working-class consumers.
On THE ROSENBERG REPORT, US Amb Huckabee on Israel’s Trump fatigue: ‘Look at what he’s done, not what he’s said’
Even as he touted historic progress on the U.S.-Israel relationship, Ambassador Mike Huckabee spent a good portion of his conversation with ALL ISRAEL NEWS Editor-in-Chief and host of THE ROSENBERG REPORT Joel Rosenberg addressing an uncomfortable trend: President Donald Trump’s approval ratings inside Israel have fallen sharply, dropping from the 70s into what Rosenberg described as a 40-to-50-point decline. A poll released by the Jewish People Policy Institute on June 23 found that 73% of Israelis now view Trump less favorably because of the emerging framework agreement with Iran, while 68% said the deal would not be good for Israel.
US launches 2nd round of strikes on Iran over attacks in Hormuz Strait; Trump threatens ‘it will get worse’
The United States launched another round of strikes on Iranian targets overnight, a day after conducting around 80 retaliatory strikes in response to the Iranian attacks on commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. Explosions were reported in multiple locations near the Persian Gulf, including the port cities of Bandar Abbas, Konarak, and Chabahar, according to the official Islamic Republic News Agency (IRNA). Iranian media also reported explosions in the city of Bushehr, which houses a nuclear power plant complex. U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) said it struck “approximately 90 Iranian military targets including air defense systems, coastal surveillance assets, missile and drone storage sites, naval capabilities, and military logistics infrastructure along Iran’s coastline.”
The remarkable 12,000 mile journey of the Isaiah scroll from Qumran to Jerusalem
The Isaiah Scroll, the most complete and important of the Dead Sea Scrolls discovered in Qumran, is currently on display at the Israel Museum for the first time since 1968. Although the distance from Qumran to Jerusalem is a mere 23 kilometers (14 miles), the manuscript has traveled thousands of miles on an epic journey since its discovery in 1947. Just as the ancient Israelites made what could have been a day’s journey from Egypt to Israel last for more than 40 years, the Isaiah Scroll took a massive, multi-legged detour before ending up in the museum in Jerusalem, where it has become the star of the show. He wrote in his diary on Dec. 1 (1947), “I read more of the parchments. This may be a great revelation beyond our wildest prayers.”
Soros-Backed Philly Prosecutor Larry Krasner Forced to Face the Music
Americans in big blue cities have suffered under the scourge of radical left-wing prosecutors who believe that their job is to protect criminals … In an extraordinary recent ruling, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court delivered a stunning rebuke to Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner after he effectively attempted to spring a convicted murderer from prison. In addition to assuming jurisdiction over the case to prevent a gross miscarriage of justice, the court – which has a 5-2 liberal majority – created a new check on Krasner’s power to challenge convictions.

Iranian state television denied reports Thursday of multiple explosions across the country, even as state-affiliated media reported blasts in several locations during a day of heightened tensions following two nights of U.S. airstrikes.
Through Compromise, Numerous Modern Churches Are Guilty Of ‘Playing The Harlot’
Born-again Christians who love the Lord, preach the gospel, and insist on the inerrancy of Scriptures are saddened when they read how the Israelites compromised God’s Word as they embraced more and more pagan beliefs (including idolatry) from the nations around them. God calls such compromise “harlotry.” Sadly, many Christians, including many Christian leaders (pastors, seminary and Bible college professors, Christian college professors, and so on), have adopted evolutionary geology, biology, astronomy, and anthropology, along with belief in millions of years, and they have mixed such beliefs with God’s Word. Because such beliefs are founded on an antibiblical, anti-God worldview, I do humbly submit that such is harlotry no different than that of the Israelites.

Why Have Central Bankers Gone Radio Silent on the Digital Currency Agenda?
A number of globalists asserted that digital exchange would be necessary because “paper money carries the COVID virus.” There was zero evidence, but COVID was their big play intended to become a nexus point for the “New World Order” takeover. The elites figured the population was so terrified that they’d agree to anything.

NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani issued a cultural enclave map that excluded Little Italy, Little Ireland, and Jewish neighborhoods for the World Cup. But he included Little Pakistan, Little Palestine, and Little Egypt. Sounds ethnically exclusionary and panders to Muslims and communists.
‘Blessing What God Calls Sin’: American Denomination Endorses Sex-Change Procedures for Minors

It’s Not Your Imagination: Media Sanitizes Migrant-Islamic Identity in Violent Crime – Orders Come from the Top
