NICE GOING HAMAS Israel accuses Hamas of firing on IDF soldiers operating planned humanitarian route for Gaza residents The Israeli military accused Hamas of using an announcement telling Gaza residents to move safely south as an opportunity to fire on soldiers from the Israel Defense Forces. "The Hamas terrorist organization exploited the humanitarian window that the IDF provided to residents of the Gaza Strip to move southwards," the IDF said in a statement. "The terrorists fired mortars and anti-tank missiles at IDF troops who arrived and operated to open the route." Earlier Saturday, the IDF had called on Gaza residents via its Arabic account on X, formerly known as Twitter, to use the main Salah-al-Din Road to move south for a three-hour period from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. local time. It's unclear how many Gaza residents have access to internet to see the message. The IDF said no soldiers were hurt in the incident, but that it served as proof that Hamas "exploits the Gazan population and prevents them from acting in the interest of their own safety." In its statement, the IDF provided links to a video, photos and audio it claimed showed Hamas opening fire toward the route during the window. CNN is unable to verify the authenticity of the material. edition.cnn.com/middleeast/live-news/israel-hamas-war-gaza-news-11-04-23/index.html

One thing for sure if Gavin was President of the US he wont' be happy that Israelis are going after Solar panels trust me he won't like that he is evrionment wacko Israeli air raids destroy solar panels used to run bakeries Tareq Abu Azzoum, reporting from Khan Younis In the last hour, the intensifying Israeli air strikes have destroyed solar panels that were installed atop several bakeries in order to keep providing full services to thousands of Palestinians in the Gaza Strip as the power blackouts continue. At least five bakeries in the Gaza Strip have been directly targeted by Israeli strikes, and at least eight more have suffered so much damage from attacks near them that they have been rendered out of service. As the total siege imposed by Israel on the already blockaded territory continues, food is running out, and bread – a staple in Palestinian households – is becoming more difficult to get with each passing day. www.aljazeera.com/news/liveblog/2023/11/4/israel-hamas-war-live-20-dead-in-israeli-attack-on-school-ministry

Tell that to your radicals Muslum group German Muslim council condemns antisemitic incidents at demonstrations A German Muslim community association has urged adherents of the religion to exercise caution in attending pro-Palestinian demonstrations. Aiman Mazyek, the chairman of the Central Council of Muslims, said that there had been "very clear violations, antisemitic, Jew-hating violations" at rallies. "[Such violations] must be punished," he said in an interview for the public radio station Deutschlandfunk. Mazyek's comments come after police in the city of Essen in the western state of North-Rhine Westphalia said people at a pro-Palestinian demonstration on Friday waved black banners with Islamist slogans in Arabic, including one calling for the establishment of an Islamic caliphate. Around 3,000 people attended the rally. Essen police alleged that the true intention of the organizers was to hold an Islamist march. No criminal offenses have been reported, but police and the local public prosecutor's office say they will "meticulously investigate" whether laws on hate speech and incitement had been broken. Mazyek called for Muslims in Germany to "be careful where you walk" and avoid support www.dw.com/en/israel-hamas-war-live-updates-saturday-november-4/live-67302992

Remember Scotland FM kin folks was in Gaza they stuck there they are not Scottish citizens well they got them out FINALLY! Relatives of Scotland’s First Minister return home from Gaza Scotland’s first minister Humza Yousaf says his in-laws have returned home after being allowed to leave the Gaza Strip. The parents of his wife, Nadia El-Nakla, were visiting relatives when the conflict erupted on 7 October, trapping them in Gaza. Elizabeth and Maged El-Nakla were among about 100 British nationals permitted to pass through the Rafah border crossing into Egypt on Friday. They have had to leave behind Maged El-Nakla’s mother, son and grandchildren. “We are, of course, elated. But my father-in-law said, ‘My heart is broken in two,’” Yousaf said on X, formerly Twitter. “He then broke down telling me how hard it was saying goodbye to them.” Yousaf has regularly shared updates on his in-laws’ plight including that they had to drink sea water. He said his brother-in-law is a doctor treating the wounded in Gaza. The past four weeks had been “a living nightmare for our family,” Yousaf said on Friday. He said he and wife will continue to call for an immediate ceasefire in the conflict. “Although we feel a sense of deep personal relief, we are heartbroken at the co www.euronews.com/2023/11/05/israel-hamas-war-warplanes-strike-gaza-refugee-camp-as-israel-rejects-us-push-for-fighting

OH OH Turkey is not having it Turkey: police disperse pro-Palestinian demonstration near military base Turkish police have dispersed a pro-Palestinian rally organised in front of the Incirlik military base housing American forces with tear gas. The move came just a few hours before the planned arrival in Ankara of US Secretary of State Antony Blinken. The demonstration, in front of the air base, was organised by the Turkish NGO Humanitarian Relief Foundation (IHH). In 2010, it chartered a flotilla to try to reach Gaza under Israeli blockade, leading to an Israeli raid which left ten people dead. There have been reports of police intervening when the crowd began moving towards the base after holding a peaceful rally in Incirlik. Images posted on social media show several hundred people waving Palestinian flags, pursued by police who also used a water cannon. No injuries or arrests have been reported at this stage. American authorities made no immediate comment. Incirlik Air Base is owned by NATO member Turkey but is used by the US Air Force - and occasionally the British Royal Air Force - providing strategic access to large areas of the Middle East. Antony Blinken is expected in Turkey later on Sunday after visiting the West Bank and Cyprus. He is due to meet his Turkish counterpart, Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan, in Ankara on Monday to discuss the war between I www.euronews.com/2023/11/05/israel-hamas-war-warplanes-strike-gaza-refugee-camp-as-israel-rejects-us-push-for-fighting

There is might martime supply route help out Gaza MAYBEEEE! Blinken, Cyprus officials discuss maritime aid corridor US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has discussed a Cypriot proposal to establish a maritime aid corridor to the Gaza Strip, according to government spokesperson Konstantinos Letymbiotis. The spokesperson said that Blinken discussed "unfolding developments" in the Middle East with Cypriot President Nikos Cristodoulides, as well as the a potential "dedicated, one-way maritime corridor of sustained flow of humanitarian aid from Cyprus to civilians in Gaza." The eastern Mediterranean island, which is an EU member state, is located less than 400 kilometers (249 miles) away from the Gaza Strip. It has served as an evacuation hub in previous regional crises. Earlier on Sunday, Cristodoulides said that Cyprus was in talks with the UN on how to prevent diversion of the aid.

Okay which is worst Hamas or PLO LOL! Palestinian Authority willing to return to Gaza after 'political solution' — Abbas Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas says that the Palestinian Authority (PA) could return to Gaza in the context of a "comprehensive" solution in the Palestinian territories. He made the comments during a visit from US Secretary of State Antony Blinken. The PA, which is governed by Abbas' Fatah party and based in the occupied West Bank, was driven out of the Gaza Strip by Hamas in 2007. "We will fully assume our responsibilities within the framework of a comprehensive political solution that includes all of the West Bank, including east Jerusalem and the Gaza Strip," Abbas told Blinken, according to the official Palestinian news agency Wafa. www.dw.com/en/israel-hamas-war-live-updates-sunday-november-11/live-67307793

OH man they yelling at each other in the meeting Palestinian ambassador to UK says Abbas' meeting with US secretary of state was tense From CNN’s Abby Baggini The Palestinian ambassador to the United Kingdom slammed the United States on Sunday for failing to be an "honest mediator" in the Israel-Hamas war. "We need to see the US playing the role of an honest mediator, not adopting the Israeli narrative," the ambassador, Dr. Husam Zomlot, said on CBS shortly after US Secretary of State Antony Blinken met with Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas. "We needed a grown-up in the room and that is the US — unfortunately, we haven't heard that, and we have not come up with a joint statement." Zomlot, who also served as the last Palestinian ambassador to the US, said Blinken's meeting with Abbas was tense. "Our president demanded an immediate ceasefire to the atrocious, murderous assault by Israel on our civilians and people. This is not a war against Hamas," Zomlot said. "It's clear since it started that it's a war against our people, not only in Gaza, but also in the West Bank." The ambassador also slammed the US for refusing to call for a ceasefire and instead opting for the term "humanitarian pause." IDF releases what it says is evidence of Hamas using civilian infrastructure to launch attacks From CNN’s Stephanie Halasz The Israel Defense Forces has released what it said was evidence of Hamas using civilian infrastructure, including hospitals and children’s playgrounds, as shields for its attacks on Israel. Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari, the chief spokesperson for the Israeli military, claimed during a news briefing Sunday that the Indonesian Hospital in northern Gaza, among others, is used by Hamas as a shield against Israeli response to its rockets. Hagari showed aerial images of the hospital, pointing out what he said were rocket launchers nearby. “Only 75 meters, 80 meters to the hospital. Here, the IDF identified a launch pad, meaning, they launched rockets from here,” Hagari claimed, charging that the Palestinian militant movement places launchers there knowing that Israeli airstrikes on those targets would damage the hospital. Hagari also showed aerial images of what he said was a tunnel opening at Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa al-Thani Hospital. “A tunnel that was being used for terror infrastructures in the Qatari hospital. If it wasn’t enough … the terrorists also shoot at our soldiers from within the hospital,” Hagari claimed. Earlier Sunday, the IDF said it had identified “launch pits” and “rocket launchers in an old children’s playground in the Gaza strip.” edition.cnn.com/middleeast/live-news/israel-hamas-war-gaza-news-11-05-23/index.html

Seriously there is hospital strike LOL! Qatar "hopeful" Gaza border crossing will reopen as dispute over ambulance strike threatens progress Qatar is "hopeful" the Rafah crossing will open again to allow people to leave Gaza for Egypt, but cannot say when that will happen, the Gulf state’s foreign ministry spokesperson said Sunday in response to questions from CNN. The opening of the crossing this week to allow hundreds of foreign passport holders and dozens of wounded Palestinians out of the besieged, Hamas-run enclave was “a very optimistic moment in a very gloomy month,” Majed Al-Ansari, the official spokesperson for Qatar’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs told CNN. “We do understand that there are a lot of difficulties on the ground here that do not allow for this positive point to continue, but we are hopeful that we will see more opening of this crossing and we will see more people coming out as soon as possible,” he said. Al-Ansari could not give a specific timeline. The crossing into Egypt — the only way out of Gaza since Israel closed its two crossings —closed Saturday and did not open Sunday. edition.cnn.com/middleeast/live-news/israel-hamas-war-gaza-news-11-05-23/index.html

Wow it is like East and West Germany Gaza cut in two, US 'encourages' Israel to 'kill', Palestinian icon Ahed Tamimi arrested EU announces 25 million euros aid for Gaza European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen announced on Monday an extra 25 million euros of assistance for Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, bringing the EU's total aid to 100 million. From Brussels, von der Leyen also spoke of the establishment of a maritime corridor from Cyprus to transport humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip. “Israel has the right to fight Hamas, but it is also essential that it does everything possible to avoid civilian casualties,” she stressed in a speech to European ambassadors. Israel carries out intense strikes on Gaza Israel bombarded the Gaza Strip heavily on Monday, as ground fighting rages. Hamas said overnight strikes killed more than 200 people in the besieged Palestinian enclave, where the war with Israel has already left nearly 10,000 dead, half of whom are children. "These are massacres! They destroyed three houses on the heads of their inhabitants, women and children, we have already taken 40 bodies out of the rubble," Mahmoud Mechmech who lives in central Gaza told AFP. Israel's army previously announced it would carry out “intensive” strikes, warning they would last “several days”. Israel began attacking Gaza on 7 October, after Hamas launched a deadly strike on its territory that killed 1,400 people. US 'encourages' Israel to 'kill' - Iran's president Iranian president Ebrahim Raisi on Monday accused the United States of “encouraging” Israel to “kill and perpetrate cruel acts” against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip. Meeting Iraq's prime minister in Tehran, Raisi once again called for an “immediate ceasefire” in Gaza. "We believe the bombings must stop as soon as possible, that a ceasefire must be declared immediately and that aid be provided to the oppressed and proud people of Gaza," he said at a press conference with Mohammed Shia' Al Sudani. “These horrible crimes against humanity are a genocide, which is carried out by the Zionist regime with the support of the United States and certain European countries,” claimed Raisi. "American aid to the Zionist regime encourages it to kill and perpetrate cruel acts against the Palestinian people. The Americans' claim that they seek to help Gaza is a false promise, which is not consistent with their actions,” he added. Since the start of the war between Israel and Hamas, rocket and drone attacks have targeted Iraqi bases housing US troops.

Question is this punk have rabies LOL! Palestinian star arrested by Israel The Israeli army announced on Monday it had arrested Ahed Tamimi - an icon of the Palestinian cause around the world - during a raid in the occupied West Bank. A spokesperson for the army said the 22-year-old activist was "suspected of inciting violence and terrorist activities." Tamimi was apprehended in the town of Nabi Saleh and "transferred to Israeli security forces for further questioning," they told AFP. Ahed Tamimi became famous at 14, filmed biting an Israeli soldier to prevent him from arresting her little brother, who was pinned to the ground and had his arm in a cast. She has since become a global icon of the Palestinian cause and is seen by Palestinians as an example of courage in the face of Israeli repression in the Occupied Palestinian Territories. A giant portrait of her was also painted on the Israeli separation wall in the occupied West Bank, in the Bethlehem sector. Since the start of the war in October, Israel has severely cracked down on dissent in the West Bank, arresting and detaining Palestinians on mass. www.euronews.com/2023/11/06/israeli-minister-says-nuking-gaza-an-option-communications-blackout-palestinian-icon-arres

WHOA one of Far left leaders in Israel said Nuke Gaza boy that going for it Far-right Israeli minister says nuking Gaza an option Israel's heritage minister Amichai Eliyahu said on Sunday that one of Israel’s options could be to drop a nuclear bomb on the Gaza Strip. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu disavowed his cabinet minister's comment and suspended him from meetings. Eliyahu, a member of the far-right Jewish Power party - made the comment in response to a question during a radio interview. “Your expectation is that tomorrow morning we’d drop what amounts to some kind of nuclear bomb on all of Gaza, flattening them, eliminating everybody there,” the Radio Kol Berama interviewer said. “That’s one way,” Eliyahu responded. “The second way is to work out what’s important to them, what scares them, what deters them… They’re not scared of death.” When the minister was told there are around 240 hostages currently held in the Gaza Strip, he doubled down. “I pray and hope for their return, but there is a price to be paid in war,” he said. “Why are the lives of the abductees, whose release I really want, more important than the lives of the soldiers and the people who will be murdered later?” www.euronews.com/2023/11/06/israeli-minister-says-nuking-gaza-an-option-communications-blackout-palestinian-icon-arres

Hamas is classified as a terrorist organization by the EU, US, Germany, Israel and others. Rafah border crossing partially reopens, Hamas says The Rafah border crossing between Egypt and Gaza has partially reopened, Hamas officials that rule the Gaza Strip said Monday.

Blinken was in the Turkish capital, Ankara, for the last leg of his diplomatic tour in the Middle East, which included surprise visits to the occupied West Bank and Iraq this weekend. Blinken said other NATO countries can also play an important role in getting hostages held by Hamas militants in Gaza released. Turkey is a NATO member.

Yeah for now LOL! Internet, cell services restored in Gaza, says Paltel Internet connectivity and cellular services were restored Monday morning in Gaza, after a total communications blackout on Sunday evening, Paltel said. Paltel, which is based in the West Bank, is one of the largest telecommunication companies operating in Gaza. The company said in a statement on Facebook that there has been a "gradual" return of service to landlines, mobile phones and internet services. Paltel said the communications outage came after Israel switched off the main network lines. Internet monitoring site Netblocks also confirmed the return of services, adding that: "Overall service remains significantly below pre-war levels." www.dw.com/en/israel-hamas-war-israeli-airstrikes-hit-450-targets-in-gaza/live-67312332

There are five Hungarian citizens among the “several hundred” hostages taken by the militant group, the government's international communications office said on its website. The Hungarian government is in constant contact with the working group set up by the Israeli government for freeing all hostages, Szijjártó added. He spoke on the phone phone with his Qatari counterpart, Soltan bin Saad Al-Muraikhi, on Sunday, and they reviewed the region’s security situation, the communications office added. “I told my colleague that we know of five people also holding Hungarian citizenship who had been taken hostage and asked for his help in freeing them,” Szijjártó said.

Don't worry IDF is on the clock on this LOL!

IDF head Chief is not kidding here As troops advance into Gaza, IDF chief says Israel can ‘reach anywhere in the Mideast’ IDF spokesman says ground troops are ‘deepening the pressure’ on Gaza City By EMANUEL FABIAN IDF ground forces operate in the northern Gaza Strip, in this photo released for publication on November 6, 2023. (Israel Defense Forces) IDF ground forces operate in the northern Gaza Strip, in this photo released for publication on November 6, 2023. (Israel Defense Forces) IDF Spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari says ground forces have been operating deeper in Gaza City in the last few hours. Hagari says the IDF is “deepening the pressure on Gaza City,” where Hamas’s main stronghold is believed to be. He says the IDF killed several Hamas field commanders during overnight airstrikes and operations, which “significantly harms Hamas’s ability to carry out counterattacks.” IDF chief says Israel ‘knows how to reach anywhere in the Middle East’ By EMANUEL FABIAN IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi speaks to soldiers at the Nevatim airbase, November 6, 2023. (Israel Defense Forces) IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi speaks to soldiers at the Nevatim airbase, November 6, 2023. (Israel Defense Forces) Visiting the Israeli Air Force’s fleet of F-35I fighter jets, IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi warns that Israel “knows how to reach anywhere in the Middle East.” “We are already a month into the war, hitting Hamas very, very hard, hitting the leadership of Hamas, hitting the commanders, hitting the terrorists, destroying Hamas’s infrastructure in Gaza, and we are also constantly ready for other areas,” says Halevi to soldiers at the Nevatim airbase. “This [air] base knows how to reach anywhere in the Middle East.” Halevi tells the soldiers that he recently saw an F-35I jet providing air support to troops some 200 meters (some 656 feet) away in the Gaza Strip. “We never did anything like this. With very heavy munitions, a very good connection between what the [ground] force needs and what the plane knows to give,” he says. “This connection of air and land together, we always knew it was strong, we see now that it is much stronger than we knew.” www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog-november-6-2023/#liveblog-entry-3146472

You know Biden have say that RIGHT Biden administration says it will continue to urge Israel to back humanitarian pause From CNN's Donald Judd US President Joe Biden's administration will continue to urge its Israeli counterparts to pursue a humanitarian pause in Gaza, the White House said Monday in an effort to safely negotiate the release of hostages still being held. “We still believe in the value of temporary humanitarian pauses for specific purposes — to get things in and to get people out, including hostages,” National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby said. “We still think there's value to that, and we're gonna continue to make that case and to have that discussion — not only with Israel but with other partners in the region.” He added that the administration believes “we're at the beginning of this process, not the end.” US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said the administration is working on the issue almost every minute of every day. “When it comes to humanitarian pauses, Biden administration says it will continue to urge Israel to back humanitarian pause From CNN's Donald Judd US President Joe Biden's administration will continue to urge its Israeli counterparts to pursue a humanitarian pause in Gaza, the White House said Monday in an effort to safely negotiate the release of hostages still being held. “We still believe in the value of temporary humanitarian pauses for specific purposes — to get things in and to get people out, including hostages,” National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby said. “We still think there's value to that, and we're gonna continue to make that case and to have that discussion — not only with Israel but with other partners in the region.” He added that the administration believes “we're at the beginning of this process, not the end.” US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said the administration is working on the issue almost every minute of every day. “When it comes to humanitarian pauses, Catastrophe unfolding in Gaza makes the need for a humanitarian ceasefire urgent, UN secretary-general says United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres told reporters on Monday that Gaza is "becoming a graveyard for children" and the deteriorating conditions in the enclave make the need for a humanitarian ceasefire more urgent. “The nightmare in Gaza is more than a humanitarian crisis. It is a crisis of humanity,” the secretary-general told reporters at the UN in New York. The secretary-general's comments come as the number of Palestinians killed in Gaza since Hamas attacked Israel on October 7 surpassed 10,000, the Hamas-controlled Ministry of Health in Gaza announced Monday. Guterres went on to announce that the UN and its partners are launching a $1.2 billion humanitarian appeal to help the entire population of Gaza, the West Bank and East Jerusalem. “The unfolding catastrophe makes the need for a humanitarian ceasefire more urgent with every passing hour. The parties to the conflict — and, indeed, the international community — face an immediate and fundamental responsibility: to stop this inhuman collective suffering and dramatically expand humanitarian aid to Gaza,” Guterres said. edition.cnn.com/middleeast/live-news/israel-hamas-war-gaza-news-11-06-23/index.html

YEAHH Who fault is that? HAMAS Thank you LOL! More than 10,000 Palestinians killed since 7 October, say health officials More than 10,000 Palestinians have been killed since 7 October, according to the latest figures released by the Hamas-run Health Ministry in Gaza. The grim toll includes more than 4,100 children and 2,640 women. The development comes after Israeli airstrikes hit two refugee camps in the central Gaza Strip on Sunday, killing scores of people, health officials said. Israel has so far rejected US suggestions that it take a humanitarian pause from its relentless bombardment of Gaza and the rising civilian deaths. In the occupied West Bank, more than 140 Palestinians have been killed in settler violence and Israeli raids. More than 1,400 people in Israel have been killed, most of them in the 7 October Hamas attack that started the bloody conflict, and 242 hostages were taken from Israel into Gaza by the militant group. Roughly 1,100 people have left the Gaza Strip through the Rafah crossing since Wednesday under an apparent agreement among the United States, Egypt, Israel and Qatar, which mediates with Hamas.

Might be pause soon Israel-Hamas war: Netanyahu open to 'tactical little pauses' Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu outlines reasons for potential pauses in fighting; says Israel would take 'security responsibility' for Gaza after war Israelis mark 1 month since Hamas terror attacks UAE to open field hospital in Gaza Strip Reporters Without Borders says 41 journalists killed in conflict The journalist-focused NGO Reporters Without Borders (RSF) said on Tuesday that it had logged the deaths of 41 journalists since Hamas' October 7 terror attacks on Israel and Israel's retaliation against Gaza. The organization appealed for "the protection of all journalists in Gaza and for foreign reporters to be able to enter and work there freely." Death toll in Gaza rises to over 10,300, says Hamas-run Health Ministry The Health Ministry in Hamas-controlled Gaza said Israeli strikes on the Palestinian territory have killed at least 10,320 people since the conflict broke out one month ago. The ministry's death toll, which could not be independently verified, includes more than 4,200 children. The conflict erupted on October 7 when Hamas militants carried out deadly terror attacks in southern Israel. Israel responded with a barrage of air strikes and a large-scale ground operation in Gaza. US President Joe Biden has recently questioned the accuracy of the figures provided by the ministry, which is part of Gaza's Hamas-controlled government. The US, the EU, Germany and others consider Hamas a terrorist organization. www.dw.com/en/israel-hamas-war-netanyahu-open-to-tactical-little-pauses/live-67323956
