At a recent United States Security Council ministerial meeting, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken made a compelling statement against global terrorism, drawing parallels between the terrorist acts of Lashkar-e-Taiba in Mumbai and those by Hamas in Israel. His message was crystal clear: every act of terrorism is "unlawful and unjustifiable," regardless of where it takes place or who perpetrates it.

Israel Releases Video of Hamas Terrorists Admitting to Shocking Plans

The Israel Securities Authority (ISA) made a disturbing revelation on Monday when it released a video clip allegedly featuring Hamas terrorists confessing to their involvement in the heinous terror attacks that took place in southern Israel on October 7.

In a harrowing disclosure, Israeli officials have unveiled that the Hamas terrorists neutralized in the October 7 assault on southern Israel possessed instructions for deploying lethal cyanide-based chemical bombs. This revelation, which was covered by the New York Post, underscores the increasing menace that terrorist groups, such as Hamas, present, not just to Israel but potentially to the global community.

According to the meticulous intelligence gathered by Israeli agencies and subsequently scrutinized by the American news platform Axios, the directives discovered showcased intricate schematics for a “cyanide dispersion device”. These alarming instructions were securely stored in USBs, which were found on the remains of the very Hamas operatives responsible for the heinous act of violence at Kibbutz Be’eri.

Offering further insight into the intentions behind these chilling discoveries, an official cable dispatched by Israel to its diplomatic outposts around the world emphasized the magnitude of the threat. It starkly stated, “This finding points to an intention by Hamas to use chemical weapons as part of its terror attack against civilians.”

Further emphasizing the nefarious intentions behind Hamas's operations, the cable urged the Israeli embassies to convey to their diplomats the chilling fact that Hamas's directives mirrored the tactics adopted by other extremist entities. It stressed that Hamas had been mandated “to conduct attacks in a similar way that ISIS tried to do.”

This episode raises alarm bells about the lengths to which terrorist organizations, like Hamas, are willing to go to inflict harm, even resorting to weapons of mass destruction. The presence of instructions for a cyanide-based device underscores the critical necessity for nations worldwide to unite against such threats and underscores Israel's relentless pursuit to protect its citizens from these ever-evolving dangers.

In a grave revelation during an interview with Sky News on Sunday, Israeli President Isaac Herzog corroborated the existence of the instructions found on Hamas terrorists. He delved deeper into the origins of these sinister designs, indicating that they weren't just random schematics. The instructions, as President Herzog highlighted, have been traced back to an Al Qaeda blueprint for chemical weapons, one that dates all the way back to 2003.

Elucidating on the gravity of the situation, President Herzog stated, “It’s Al Qaeda material. Official Al Qaeda material. We are dealing with ISIS, Al Qaeda, and Hamas.” This alarming linkage paints a picture of interconnected extremist threats that Israel faces.

President Herzog further emphasized the sheer terror embedded within these instructions. “This is how shocking the situation is where we’re looking at the instructions that are given on how to operate and how to create a kind of non-professional chemical weapon with cyanide,” he lamented.

The horrifying potential of such weapons in the hands of extremist groups cannot be understated. It brings forth an immediate sense of dread, considering the widespread havoc they can wreak, far beyond the immediate vicinity of their deployment.

Further solidifying this narrative, Israeli officials, in various statements, have drawn parallels between Hamas and other globally recognized extremist organizations. As reported by the New York Post, Israeli representatives have consistently equated Hamas with the likes of ISIS, especially after the latter's recent onslaught on Israel. ISIS, a group infamous for its brutal and remorseless acts of violence in its endeavor to impose extremist Islamic laws globally, now finds itself being likened to Hamas in terms of its operational methods and intentions.

Such parallels bring forth an unequivocal message: the threats faced by Israel are multitudinal, intertwined, and evolving, demanding unwavering vigilance and global collaboration to counteract.

Netanyahu Condemns Hamas' Unprecedented Brutality Mirroring ISIS Tactics

In a somber address following the recent attacks, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu drew a chilling comparison between the horrors committed by Hamas and the dreaded atrocities carried out by ISIS. Recounting the heart-wrenching details, he noted, “Children bound and executed with the rest of their families, young girls and boys shot in the back, executed, and other atrocities that I will not describe here.”

In a bold move to further their terror campaign, Hamas militants brazenly displayed ISIS flags during their assault on some of the Kibbutzs, as revealed in images released by the Israeli Defence Force (IDF) soldiers. Such a brazen display not only underscores the similarity in their modus operandi but also signifies a potential alignment in their radical ideologies.

Diving deeper into the nature of the threat, Israel unveiled additional intelligence secured from Hamas operatives. These chilling reports included meticulously crafted battle strategies with a singular, horrifying objective: “kill as many people as possible.” They didn’t stop at that. Plans to take hostages during their raids, followed by razing civilian villages, were also outlined in detail.

Adding another layer of terror, the New York Post reported that some of these sinister blueprints explicitly marked schools as potential targets. Their objective? To abduct children en masse. Furthermore, these plans highlighted locations teeming with unsuspecting civilians, such as supermarkets and dining halls, as potential targets.

This multi-pronged assault strategy, aimed not only at causing widespread panic but also inflicting maximum damage, echoes the sinister tactics employed by groups like ISIS. The recent events reaffirm that the threats posed by extremist factions like Hamas are both real and rapidly escalating. As these revelations come to light, they further underscore the importance of global unity in the fight against terror and radical ideologies.

In the backdrop of the escalating Israel-Hamas conflict, global leaders are taking proactive measures to express their support and solidarity with Israel. As the international community's focus intensifies on the region, French President Emmanuel Macron and Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte are set to visit Israel this week, as announced by the Israeli prime minister’s office.

In a pivotal move, President Macron is slated to meet with Israeli PM Netanyahu on Tuesday. These talks are expected to revolve around bolstering bilateral ties, discussing the ongoing conflict, and exploring avenues for de-escalation and peace.

Apart from the European leaders, the situation has also captured the attention of US President Joe Biden. On Sunday, he convened discussions about the Israel-Hamas conflict with prominent Western powerhouses. The White House revealed that the dialogue involved leaders from the UK, Canada, France, Germany, and Italy.

Unwavering in their stance, the leaders collectively expressed their unequivocal support for Israel. The White House stated, “The leaders reiterated their support for Israel and its right to defend itself against terrorism.” Moreover, the international leaders emphasized the paramount importance of adherence to international humanitarian laws. This includes safeguarding civilians, emphasizing the shared global responsibility in ensuring that innocent lives are protected amidst conflicts.

Israeli Security Agencies Join Forces in the Aftermath of Hamas's October Attack

In a response to the harrowing events of October 7, Israel's premier security agencies, Mossad and Shin Bet, have taken a decisive step to counter Hamas's aggressive actions. A new special unit, named "Nili", has been constituted with a singular goal: to track, hunt, and eliminate the Hamas terrorists responsible for the atrocities committed earlier this month.

The designation "Nili" harkens back to a period of historic resistance. It is reminiscent of the World War I-era Jewish underground organization and stands as an acronym for the Hebrew phrase translating to "the Eternal One of Israel will not lie."

Mossad, serving as Israel's intelligence unit, and Shin Bet, the nation's internal security service, will synergize their efforts under the Nili banner. This task force's primary directive is to pursue and neutralize every single Hamas operative implicated in the ground invasion and terrorist attacks that shook Southern Israel barely two weeks ago.

In particular, the "Nili" unit is geared to dismantle Hamas’s notorious special commando unit known as "Nukhba" (translated as “elite”). This very unit was instrumental in the execution of the horrors that befell Israel on 7th October. A vast cadre of Nukhba operatives, numbering in the thousands, breached Israel's defenses and were responsible for mass murders, assaults, and the abduction of more than 250 Israeli and foreign nationals, relocating them to Gaza. Employing a multifaceted assault strategy encompassing land, sea, and air routes, the Hamas onslaught resulted in the tragic loss of over 1,400 lives, with many more sustaining injuries. The formation of the Nili unit signals Israel's unwavering commitment to bring justice to the victims and re-establish a semblance of peace and security for its citizens.

In what appears to be an uninformed attack on the revered Akshardham Mahamandir in the US, The New York Times has come under scrutiny for publishing allegations of 'caste discrimination' without robust verification. This critique comes on the heels of Bochasanwasi Akshar Purushottam Swaminarayan Sanstha (BAPS) successfully defending themselves in a 2-year legal tussle centered around the same baseless accusations.

Elon Musk's proposal to Wikipedia has caused quite a stir, especially given the platform's evergreen financial struggles. Wikipedia has always maintained a public-facing donation model to run its operations, often popping up appeals that some users find borderline intrusive. Musk's generous offer might seem like a solution to their financial woes on the surface, but the catch is too hilarious (or humiliating, depending on which side of the fence you're on) to ignore.

Remember the article, I wrote about Meetha Nikhil Dharmaraj, the Harvard scholar who found himself amidst a whirlpool of controversy for his anti-Israel stance? Dharmaraj, an eloquent supporter of Palestine, has been a vocal critic of Zionism, drawing parallels between it and settler-colonialism, reflecting a broader sentiment among some Harvard factions. His involvement with the Harvard Palestine Solidarity Committee and his endorsement of a pro-Palestine statement alongside 33 student groups, stirred a notable outcry, especially amidst the lethal skirmishes between Israel and Hamas in October.
