Netanyahu Explodes: Hamas ‘Starving Hostages Like Nazis’ |Emaciated Israeli Captives Dying in Tunnel

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has unleashed a fiery statement accusing Hamas of “starving Israeli hostages like the Nazis starved the Jews.” The explosive comment comes after the release of harrowing Hamas propaganda videos showing two visibly emaciated Israeli captives inside a Gaza tunnel. Netanyahu didn’t hold back, calling the captors “Hamas monsters with thick, fleshy arms” who enjoy full meals while the hostages waste away. The shocking Nazi comparison has sparked outrage and debate across global diplomatic circles. Is this a turning point in Israel’s messaging war? Or a glimpse into the unimaginable conditions hostages are facing underground in Gaza? #BREAKING #Netanyahu #Hamas #Hostages #GazaTunnels #IsraelVsHamas #MiddleEastCrisis #IsraelGazaWar #NaziComparison #WarCrimes #RedCross #HumanitarianCrisis #HamasVideos #GazaHostages #EmaciatedCaptives

Ben Gvir DEFIES Protocols, Prays on Temple Mount | Arab States FUME, Warn of ‘Dangerous Escalation’ [Video]

Ben Gvir DEFIES Protocols, Prays on Temple Mount | Arab States FUME, Warn of ‘Dangerous Escalation’

In an unprecedented move, Israeli Minister Itamar Ben Gvir prayed on the Temple Mount during Tisha B’Av, defying long-held protocols that prohibit overt Jewish prayer at the site. His actions sparked strong condemnation from the Palestinian Authority, Jordan, and Saudi Arabia. Over 1,200 Jewish worshippers visited the contested holy site, intensifying tensions. Critics say this violated the status quo agreement. The Temple Mount, home to Al Aqsa Mosque and the Dome of the Rock, remains a core flashpoint in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Netanyahu insists policy “has not changed.” #BenGvir #TempleMount #TishaBAv #AlAqsa #IsraelPolitics #MiddleEast #Jerusalem #StatusQuo #HolySite #ReligiousTensions #IsraeliPalestinianConflict #Netanyahu #PA #SaudiArabia #Jordan #AlAqsaMosque #DomeOfTheRock #JewishPrayer #BreakingNews #FarRightPolitics #InternationalCondemnation #AFPFootage #TempleMountVisit #ReligiousFlashpoint #MiddleEastNews #JerusalemConflict #HolySiteTensions #WorshipRights #GeoPolitics #ConflictZone ~ED.103~HT.408~

‘We’re Losing The War’ Ex-Shin Bet Chief  ADMITS Defeat In Gaza | ‘Only Two-State Plan Can Stop…’ [Video]

‘We’re Losing The War’ Ex-Shin Bet Chief ADMITS Defeat In Gaza | ‘Only Two-State Plan Can Stop…’

In a dramatic admission, former Shin Bet chief Ami Ayalon has warned that despite military gains in Gaza, Israel is ultimately losing the war. In a public statement, Ayalon said, "No matter how many battles we win, we will lose if there's no political solution." He stressed that without a vision for peace, particularly a two-state solution, Israel risks destroying its own identity as both a Jewish and democratic state. Calling a Palestinian state "Hamas’s worst nightmare," Ayalon urged Israeli leadership to look beyond short-term military victories and invest in long-term political outcomes. His comments come amid growing criticism from Israeli officials and security experts about the government’s handling of the conflict. Ayalon’s voice adds weight to the urgent global calls for a ceasefire and meaningful diplomacy. His stark words have sent shockwaves through Israeli political circles and reignited the debate over the only viable path to peace. #IsraelGazaWar #AmiAyalon #ShinBet #TwoStateSolution #GazaCrisis #IsraelAtWar #MiddleEastConflict #JewishDemocracy #Hamas #IsraeliPolitics #PeaceNow #GazaWarUpdate #SpyChiefSpeaks #MilitaryVsPolitical #CeasefireNow #IsraelLosingWar #IsraeliMilitary #PalestinianState #ZionistDilemma #WarWithoutEnd ~HT.410~ED.194~
