We know what’s coming and we are prepared.
Hamas and Islamic Jihad anticipate that the ongoing hostage deal will soon collapse due to Israel’s stance and the support of the Trump administration. In response, they are coordinating with Iran to prepare for renewed fighting.
According to intelligence assessments in Israel, Hamas is actively using the current ceasefire to restore its military capabilities and replenish its ranks with new recruits in preparation for a return to combat in the Gaza Strip.
Hamas assumes that Israel, backed by the Trump administration, will not alter its positions regarding key negotiation points, including the return of all hostages, the reduction of Hamas’ control over Gaza, the disarmament of its military wing, and the deportation of its leadership abroad.
Hamas publicly announced days ago that it will not relinquish its rule in Gaza, disarm, or deport its leaders.
This fundamental gap in positions appears irreconcilable, and officials in Hamas and Islamic Jihad acknowledge this reality.
For this reason, security sources report that Hamas and Islamic Jihad delegations recently traveled to Tehran, where they met with Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and the commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), General Hossein Salami, to coordinate their next moves against Israel.
On February 21, General Ibrahim Jabari, an advisor to the IRGC commander, threatened during a military exercise that “Operation The Righteous Truth Number 3” would be launched at an opportune moment to destroy Israel, specifically targeting Tel Aviv and Haifa.
Senior security officials believe that these Tehran meetings resulted in agreements on financial aid transfers to Hamas and the smuggling of weapons into Gaza and terrorist groups in northern Samaria.
Hamas’ military wing is reportedly planning renewed attacks inside Israeli territory.
The recent failed terrorist attacks on buses in Bat Yam and Holon should be viewed in this context.
Additionally, the release of hundreds of terrorists into Judea and Samaria during the first phase of the deal has strengthened Hamas’ military capabilities in the field.
Commentators in Gaza predict that Israel will resume fighting by mid-March.
They expect Israel to focus first on suppressing terrorist activity in northern Samaria before shifting additional forces to Gaza.
According to these assessments, Israel is likely to restart military operations once negotiations on the second phase of the deal reach a deadlock and after the new Chief of Staff, Eyal Zamir, assumes office early next month.
Hamas anticipates that the renewed fighting will be intense, with backing from the Trump administration.
The IDF is expected to launch large-scale incursions into areas it previously avoided, such as refugee camps in central Gaza.
Rather than isolated raids, the anticipated strategy involves dividing the Gaza Strip into three sections using three IDF divisions in the initial phase. This maneuver will also halt the flow of humanitarian aid into Gaza.

Miatta Fanbulleh is Liberian.
She is now in charge of Britain's Energy Security.
Meanwhile this is what Liberia looks like:
Beaches covered in excrement.
No waste management.
Absolute filth.

The argument by law enforcement that Flock cameras help solve crimes could be used to argue in favor of any form of mass electronic surveillance. A system whereby the movements and actions of every man, woman and child in the United States is tracked electronically at all times would virtually eliminate all crime in this country.
Nobody is seriously advocating for an AI system to watch every human being, 24 hours a day, in their public and private lives—even though it would end or at least catch all crime—because as a society, stopping or catching crime is not our only priority. It's the only priority of law enforcement, but we don't live in a "cop"-ocracy. If every citizen lived in cells like on Alcatraz instead of private homes, that would also help prevent crime!
"Oh, but even though we're going to collect all the data, we're going to put in safeguards so it can't be used by bad actors!"
Well that same justification could be used to justify the AI skynet watching all people at ...
THE COST OF THE AMERICAN DREAM HAS EXPLODED.
-
Owning a home.
-
Buying groceries.
-
Driving to work.
-
Paying insurance.
-
Even your morning coffee.
Nearly every major household expense costs dramatically more than it did just a few years ago.
Over the last 7 years:
• Coffee: +127%
• Home prices: +60%
• Auto insurance: +51%
• Gasoline: +49%
• Electricity: +44%
• Shelter: +35%
• Groceries: +33%
And that's before paying for healthcare, transportation, or eating out.
This is why so many families feel like they're falling behind even when they get a raise.
The biggest financial problem for millions of Americans is that everything is going up at the same time, while the government keeps showing a 2% inflation target.
