Qatar says Gaza truce not close, but hope remains; working on permanent ceasefire-Doha Foreign Ministry spokesperson says Israel, Hamas, not ‘converging;’ Hamas says Netanyahu is ‘stumbling block,’ refusing to meet terror group’s conditions-By Agencies and ToI Staff Today, 3:26 pm-MAR 12,24

Qatar’s foreign ministry spokesperson Majed Al-Ansari said Tuesday that while a hostage and ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas is not close to being agreed upon, Doha remains hopeful.Despite weeks of talks involving US, Qatari, and Egyptian mediators, the Muslim holy month of Ramadan began on Monday without the start of a widely sought truce and hostage exchange.“We are not near a Gaza ceasefire deal but remain hopeful,” Ansari said at a press conference in Doha, adding that talks are ongoing.“We are not seeing both sides converging on language that can resolve the current disagreement over the implementation of a deal,” he said.All parties were “continuing to work in the negotiations to reach a deal hopefully within the confines of Ramadan,” Ansari said.But he added that he cannot “offer any timeline” on a deal and explained that the situation remains “very complicated on the ground.”Ansari also said that Qatar is working to establish a permanent ceasefire in Gaza, rather than a short-term truce of a few days.War erupted on October 7 when the Palestinian terror group Hamas carried out a massive, devastating assault on Israel. The thousands of attackers who burst through the border from the Gaza Strip into southern Israel killed 1,200 people amid horrific atrocities and abducted 253 people who were taken as hostages to Gaza.Israel responded with a military campaign to topple the Hamas regime in Gaza, destroy the terror group, and free the hostages, 130 of whom remain in captivity — not all of them alive.Hamas official Mohammad Nazzal said that while negotiations for a potential hostage deal and temporary ceasefire are at an impasse, mediators are still working to try to advance an agreement.“The negotiations have not stopped. It has reached an impasse in recent days, but Qatar and Egypt are working hard to continue it,” he told Al Jazeera, according to the Kan public broadcaster.“Hamas responds to the mediators and is trying to cooperate positively, but [Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu is a stumbling block to any understanding. The negotiations will not stop until Netanyahu meets Hamas’s conditions,” Nazzal said, without giving further details.Israel has said any ceasefire must be temporary and that its goal remains the destruction of Hamas and the return of all hostages. The terror group says it will release the hostages it has been holding since October 7 only as part of a deal that ends the war.The reported outline of a six-week truce deal, thus far rejected by Hamas, would see 40 children, women, elderly, and sick hostages released in the first phase, in exchange for some 400 Palestinian security prisoners, with the possibility of further releases to be negotiated.Qatar helped negotiate a previous weeklong truce in November that saw 105 hostages released, mostly women and children, in exchange for three times as many Palestinian security prisoners held in Israeli jails. Humanitarian aid to Gaza was also boosted during the lull.

Jordanian queen claims humanitarian crisis in Gaza is ‘deliberate’In interview with CNN, Rania says ‘Palestinians have experienced 156 October 7s’, insists aid airdrops are not a replacement for ‘humanitarian access at scale’By ToI Staff Today, 2:06 pm-MAR 12,24

Jordan’s Queen Rania has charged that the “outrageous, shameful” humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip, where the United Nations has warned that 2.2 million Palestinians are on the brink of famine amid the ongoing war, was “entirely predictable… because it was deliberate.”Speaking to CNN, Rania, who was born in Kuwait to Palestinian parents, did not expand on the charge as she was asked another question by host Christiane Amanpour.Later in the interview, when asked how she could expect Israelis to live side by side with Hamas after the terror group’s October 7 massacre, Rania sidestepped and answered, “I would say that as devastating and as traumatic as October 7 was, it doesn’t give Israel license to commit atrocity after atrocity. Israel experienced one October 7. Since then, the Palestinians have experienced 156 October 7s. They have been going through this every day.”The war in Gaza erupted 156 days ago after thousands of Hamas-led terrorists burst into Israel by land, air and sea, killing some 1,200 people and seizing 253 hostages, mostly civilians in their homes and at a music festival, many amid horrific acts of brutality and sexual assault.Vowing to destroy the terror group, Israel responded with a wide-scale ground and air campaign that the Hamas-run health ministry in Gaza said has now killed more than 31,000 people. These figures cannot be independently verified, and are believed to include both civilians and Hamas members killed in Gaza, including as a consequence of terror groups’ own rocket misfires. The IDF says it has killed over 13,000 terror operatives in Gaza since the war started, in addition to some 1,000 terrorists inside Israel on October 7.Rania pointed the finger at “one of the most hardline, racist governments in Israel’s history,” blaming Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for bolstering Hamas in order to prevent the Palestinian Authority from moving toward statehood and “keeping their people in this perpetual state of fear of an existential threat that doesn’t exist.”Speaking to Amanpour from the King Abdullah II Airbase, where humanitarian aid was being prepared to be airdropped into Gaza by the US military in coordination with Jordan, Egypt and France, Rania reiterated previous calls for an “immediate and sustained ceasefire.”“Nothing is a substitute for a ceasefire. Delivering aid under bombardment does not stop the destruction… We cannot save people from hunger only then to bomb them to death.”Queen Rania spoke with me about Jordan airdropping aid into Gaza, the humanitarian crisis, and more. pic.twitter.com/djfBVqx0b5— Christiane Amanpour (@amanpour) March 11, 2024-A Monday statement from Queen Rania’s office said that the Jordanian Armed Forces had conducted 38 solo airdrops to Gaza and 46 with partners since the start of the war.Rania called the airdrop operation a resort “to desperate measures in order to address a desperate situation.”“They’re just drops in the ocean of unmet needs,” she said, insisting that the efforts were not a replacement for “humanitarian access at scale.”“As it stands today, there’s tons of food in trucks that are miles away from people who are starving. The hunger is not a natural disaster. This is a man-made, an Israeli-made disaster. It is deprivation by design,” she charged.“Since the beginning of this war, Israel has cut off everything that is required to sustain a human life,” Rania said in the interview released on Monday, adding that “food, fuel, shelter, medicine, water” were in scarce supply as the war rages into its sixth month.“This has been a slow motion, mass murder of children, five months in the making. Children who were thriving and healthy just five months ago are wasting away in front of their parents,” she said.In similarly impassioned interviews with CNN in the months since the war in Gaza erupted with Hamas’s grisly October 7 onslaught, Rania has called Israel’s bid to eliminate the terror group “short-sighted and not entirely rational” and appeared to deny documented atrocities from the massacre in southern Israel.Jordan was the second Arab state to make peace with Israel in 1994, after Egypt in 1979. Thousands of protesters have called for Amman to rescind its peace treaty with Israel because of the war against Hamas.Jordan, whose population is believed to be at least 50 percent Palestinian, has shown nervousness over the war in Gaza and already tense relations have further soured.

IDF announces terms for West Bank Palestinians’ entry to Temple Mount during Ramadan-Military liaison COGAT says visitors will allowed in for Friday prayers with a permit, limited to children under 10, men over 55, and women over 50-By Emanuel Fabian-and AP Today, 2:29 pm-MAR 12,24

The Israel Defense Forces’ military liaison to the Palestinians announced  Tuesday that younger children and older adults will be the only West Bank Palestinians permitted to enter Jerusalem to visit the Al-Aqsa Mosque on the Temple Mount for the important first Friday prayers of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan this week.This year’s Ramadan comes amid tinderbox tensions stemming from the ongoing war against Hamas in the Gaza Strip, triggered by the group’s shock October 7 attack, when thousands of terrorists rampaged through southern Israel, killing some 1,200 people and taking 253 hostages.Terror groups have called on Palestinians to come to Al-Aqsa Mosque, which has often been a flashpoint of Israeli-Palestinian violence, to confront Israel over the war in Gaza.When Ramadan began Sunday night, COGAT, the Israeli defense body in charge of civilian affairs in the West Bank, had yet to announce restrictions on prayers at Al Aqsa.The rules announced Monday would limit West Bank Palestinians’ access to the compound for Friday’s prayers to men over 55, women over 50, and children under 10, COGAT chief Ghassan Elian said in an Arabic-language post on Facebook.Worshipers will need a valid permit from COGAT, subject to security approval, and there may be changes per fresh assessments of the situation and other developments.COGAT did not say if West Bank Palestinians can visit Jerusalem between Sundays and Thursdays during Ramadan.Unlike previous years, due to the war, Gazan Palestinians will not be permitted to pray at Al-Aqsa Mosque.Palestinians from the West Bank have been unable to visit Jerusalem under government restrictions put in place immediately after the October 7 Hamas attack that started the ongoing war.Last Ramadan, there was no age restriction on women from the territory entering Jerusalem.The Temple Mount is the holiest place in Judaism, where two biblical Temples once stood, and Al-Aqsa Mosque is the third-holiest shrine in Islam, making the site a central flashpoint of the Israeli-Arab conflict.Hundreds of thousands of Muslims crowd the site for prayers each Ramadan, as religious fervor is heightened. While Israel has imposed restrictions on Palestinian access during times of heightened security tensions, it has refrained from imposing those rules on the country’s Muslim minority.Police officers scuffled with some attendees at the entrance to the flashpoint Temple Mount site on the first night of Ramadan on Sunday, but prayers on Monday passed peacefully.Police were also accused of denying some Arab Israelis entry to the site, in violation of a promise made by Netanyahu to enable free access to Muslim citizens.Netanyahu pledged last week that the number of worshipers allowed to pray on the Temple Mount in the first week of Ramadan would be the same as in previous years and that no restrictions would be imposed on Arab Israelis, overruling the reported wishes of ultranationalist firebrand National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir, who oversees the Israel Police.

'In the end, 75% of Jews come home to the Democratic party' The Jewish Democrats’ plan to get Joe Biden reelected by targeting independent voters-JDCA notes high Jewish turnout and that in swing states of Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Georgia, number of Jews who voted Biden in 2020 was larger than his margin of victory-By Ron Kampeas Today, 5:01 pm-MAR 12,24

WASHINGTON (JTA) – It has become conventional wisdom among Democrats that President Joe Biden is in trouble. Despite the long list of accomplishments that his supporters cite, the president is unpopular, losing in polls, and, famously, old.The Jewish Democratic Council of America (JDCA) has a plan to save him in November.Rather than fret about a Biden loss in the presidential election, the group wants to focus on a win the party scored in a recent special congressional election in New York, in which moderate Democrat Tom Suozzi beat Mazi Pilip, a Jewish Republican. The strategy that worked there, the group says, could and should be taken nationwide.In an interview with the Jewish Telegraphic Agency, JDCA CEO Halie Soifer outlined her plan to turn out Jewish voters in key swing states. The strategy will focus on independent voters, a group that makes up an increasing share of the young Jewish voter base. The youngest Jewish voters, according to a 2021 poll, are nearly 50 percent more likely to be independent than the oldest ones.“JDCA believes that if Jewish voters show up and vote, President Biden will be reelected,” Soifer said. “This election will be close — just look at the polls — and Jewish voters are an essential part of a winning Democratic coalition, given their historically high margin of support for Democrats.”The other reasons to invest in Jewish voters, she said, is their presence in battleground states, and the fact that Jewish turnout is traditionally higher than general population turnout. She noted that in 2020 in a few key swing states — Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Georgia — the number of Jews who voted for Biden was larger than his margin of victory.Soifer’s group employed that strategy last month in New York’s Third District, the area spanning Queens and Long Island where Suozzi cruised to a victory over Pilip to replace Republican George Santos, the disgraced fabulist and accused fraudster who was thrown out of Congress. (Santos has announced plans to run again.)“We targeted every Jewish voter in that district, Democrat, Republican, and independent,” Soifer said. “In every race that we’re doing this work, we are targeting Democrats and independent voters.”As they prepare for the election, JDCA and its affiliated political action committee are growing. They have almost doubled their budget since last year, to $4 million. Since its 2018 founding, the group has tripled its staff to 15. It has expanded its board of directors, and recently tapped Susie Stern, a New York philanthropist prominent in Jewish and Democratic Party activism, as its next chair.Despite that growth, the organization’s size still pales in comparison to its Republican counterpart. In 2022, the Republican Jewish Coalition spent more than $6.6 million, according to tax documents, and spent $10 million on the 2020 election. It plans to spend more this year.Matt Brooks, RJC’s CEO, declined to share his group’s strategy, saying he would be ready to elaborate at a later date. In the past, RJC has focused on Jewish voters in swing states, but also has geared its ads towards the broader community, with an emphasis on the argument that Republicans are the better national security choice.Steve Rabinowitz, a strategist and co-founder of JDCA who is no longer affiliated with the organization, told JTA he is not worried about Jewish Democrats abandoning Biden. The consistent electoral history of around 75% of Jews voting for the Democratic candidate, he predicted, would continue into 2024.“Is there apprehension, is there concern the same way there is in the mainstream community? Yes, of course,” said Rabinowitz. “In the end, it works out, they’ll come home — at least three-quarters of them.”Along with Biden’s poll numbers, JDCA faces some headwinds in the Jewish community. The increase in independent Jewish voters, Soifer said, does pose a challenge to Jewish Democrats, who have always counted on an electorate that has been solidly and overwhelmingly aligned with their party.“It may be even more pronounced,” she said of the trend. “In the same way that younger Jews are less likely to identify with a denomination or affiliate with a synagogue, they are less likely than their older counterparts to self-identify with a party.”To account for that trend, JDCA will be highlighting domestic issues that the group believes bring independents closer to Democrats. One of those is reproductive rights. Large majorities of Jews have consistently said they are pro-choice, and in the New York race that serves as a model for JDCA’s strategy, the group ran an ad focused on abortion. Pilip, the Republican candidate, declined to answer questions about whether she supported abortion rights.To find voters, JDCA uses targeted advertising on social media, where a user’s interests may indicate involvement in Jewish and political issues. The group follows up with texting and then phone calls as election day nears.“We intentionally focused on abortion because that is an issue on which there’s nearly a consensus in the Jewish community,” she said. “It transcends partisan divides.”Another focus of JDCA’s outreach, she said, would be on preserving democracy, a tactic that dovetails with Biden’s strategy of hammering on the threat he says Donald Trump poses to democratic rule. That tactic will focus on Trump’s boast that he would be a “dictator” on the first day of his second term, and on his role in spurring the deadly January 6, 2021, riot at the US Capitol.Biden made protecting abortion rights and defending democracy themes of his State of the Union address last week, in which he referred to Trump — usually as “my predecessor” — a dozen times.JDCA says its targeting of swing states will also help drive turnout in competitive Senate races that could determine control of that chamber.“There’s a lot of overlap this cycle” with states that could swing the presidential election and have key Senate races, Soifer said. “Looking west to east: Nevada, Arizona, Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Ohio.”Georgia, a swing state with a big Jewish community but without a Senate race in play, will also be a focus.JDCA does not need to focus on Israel in its outreach, Soifer said, because she does not feel it needs to make the case that Biden, who has been a staunch supporter of Israel’s war effort, is pro-Israel. (The group did produce an ad contrasting Biden’s remarks on the war with Trump’s in October.) And Rabinowitz does not feel Israel’s war with Hamas, and the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, will be a meaningful factor in how and whether liberal Jews vote.“There’s a dirty little secret that while Israel is important, even very important, it is the single most important issue for very few Jews, and a lot of those Jews are Republican or politically conservative,” he said.

NGOs plan to sue Denmark to halt its weapons exports to Israel-Amnesty International Denmark, Oxfam Denmark and other groups say they will file suit in coming weeks, while Copenhagen says its sales are ‘completely within the lines’By Reuters and ToI Staff Today, 7:37 pm-MAR 12,24

COPENHAGEN — A group of NGOs said on Tuesday that they will sue the Danish state to end the Nordic country’s arms exports to Israel, citing concerns that its weapons were being used to commit serious crimes against civilians during the war in Gaza.Amnesty International Denmark, Oxfam Denmark, ActionAid Denmark and Palestinian human rights organization Al-Haq said in a joint statement they would bring the case against the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the National Police, which approves Danish sales of weapons and military equipment.“We feel that we are completely within the lines, the rules of the game that apply,” Danish Foreign Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen told reporters in response.The National Police declined immediate comment without having seen details of the lawsuit.Legal firm Kontra Advokater, which will be representing the NGOs, said it would file the lawsuit to a Copenhagen district court within the next three weeks.“For five months we have been talking about a potential genocide in Gaza, but we have not seen politicians take action,” said Tim Whyte, secretary-general of ActionAid Denmark.Israel launched its offensive against Hamas in Gaza following the terror group’s murderous onslaught across southern Israel on October 7, in which close to 1,200 people were killed and another 253 were kidnapped — more than 100 of whom are still being held in Gaza.In the ensuing war, which Israel says is aimed at toppling Hamas, preventing it from being able to carry out further attacks, and returning the hostages, more than 31,000 Palestinians have been killed, according to unverified figures provided by the Hamas-run Gaza health ministry.The figure includes some 13,000 Hamas terrorists Israel says it has killed in battle, as well as those slain by malfunctioning rocket launches from within Gaza.Israel has said it is doing all it can to limit civilian casualties, including precision strikes and warning populations to leave areas of heavy fighting, and blames Hamas for fighting in densely populated areas and operating out of civilian infrastructure, including hospitals.Close to 250 IDF soldiers have been killed fighting in Gaza since the start of the military’s ground operation in the Strip.A Dutch court in February ordered the Netherlands to block all exports of F-35 fighter jet parts to Israel over concerns they were being used to violate international law in Gaza.

13 And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon,(SATAN) and out of the mouth of the beast,(WORLD DICTATOR) and out of the mouth of the false prophet.(FALSE POPE)
14 For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.(WERE 2 BILLION DIE FROM NUKE WAR)
15 Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.
16 And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.
17 And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done.

Ecclesiastes 9:10
10 Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might, for in the realm of the dead, where you are going, there is neither working nor planning nor knowledge nor wisdom.

EZEKIEL 31:10-17
10 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thou hast lifted up thyself in height, and he hath shot up his top among the thick boughs, and his heart is lifted up in his height;
11 I have therefore delivered him into the hand of the mighty one of the heathen; he shall surely deal with him: I have driven him out for his wickedness.
12 And strangers, the terrible of the nations, have cut him off, and have left him: upon the mountains and in all the valleys his branches are fallen, and his boughs are broken by all the rivers of the land; and all the people of the earth are gone down from his shadow, and have left him.
13 Upon his ruin shall all the fowls of the heaven remain, and all the beasts of the field shall be upon his branches:
14To the end that none of all the trees by the waters exalt themselves for their height, neither shoot up their top among the thick boughs, neither their trees stand up in their height, all that drink water: for they are all delivered unto death, to the nether parts of the earth, in the midst of the children of men, with them that go down to the pit.(HELL).
15Thus saith the Lord GOD; In the day when he went down to the grave I caused a mourning: I covered the deep for him, and I restrained the floods thereof, and the great waters were stayed: and I caused Lebanon to mourn for him, and all the trees of the field fainted for him.
16 I made the nations to shake at the sound of his fall, when I cast him down to hell with them that descend into the pit: and all the trees of Eden, the choice and best of Lebanon, all that drink water, shall be comforted in the nether parts of the earth.
17They also went down into hell with him unto [them that be] slain with the sword; and [they that were] his arm, [that] dwelt under his shadow in the midst of the heathen.
18To whom art thou thus like in glory and in greatness among the trees of Eden? yet shalt thou be brought down with the trees of Eden unto the nether parts of the earth: thou shalt lie in the midst of the uncircumcised with [them that be] slain by the sword. This [is] Pharaoh and all his multitude, saith the Lord GOD.

EZEKIEL 32:17-32
17 It came to pass also in the twelfth year, in the fifteenth [day] of the month, [that] the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
18 Son of man, wail for the multitude of Egypt, and cast them down, [even] her, and the daughters of the famous nations, unto the nether parts of the earth, with them that go down into the pit.
19 Whom dost thou pass in beauty? go down, and be thou laid with the uncircumcised.
20 They shall fall in the midst of [them that are] slain by the sword: she is delivered to the sword: draw her and all her multitudes.
21 The strong among the mighty shall speak to him out of the midst of hell with them that help him: they are gone down, they lie uncircumcised, slain by the sword.
22 Asshur [is] there and all her company: his graves [are] about him: all of them slain, fallen by the sword:
23 Whose graves are set in the sides of the pit, and her company is round about her grave: all of them slain, fallen by the sword, which caused terror in the land of the living.
24 There [is] Elam (IRAN) and all her multitude round about her grave, all of them slain, fallen by the sword, which are gone down uncircumcised into the nether parts of the earth, which caused their terror in the land of the living; yet have they borne their shame with them that go down to the pit.
25 They have set her a bed in the midst of the slain with all her multitude: her graves [are] round about him: all of them uncircumcised, slain by the sword: though their terror was caused in the land of the living, yet have they borne their shame with them that go down to the pit: he is put in the midst of [them that be] slain.
26 There [is] Meshech, Tubal,(RUSSIA) (GERMANY, TURKEY) and all her multitude: her graves [are] round about him: all of them uncircumcised, slain by the sword, though they caused their terror in the land of the living.
27And they shall not lie with the mighty [that are] fallen of the uncircumcised, which are gone down to hell with their weapons of war: and they have laid their swords under their heads, but their iniquities shall be upon their bones, though [they were] the terror of the mighty in the land of the living.
28 Yea, thou shalt be broken in the midst of the uncircumcised, and shalt lie with [them that are] slain with the sword.
29 There [is] Edom,(JORDAN) her kings, and all her princes, which with their might are laid by [them that were] slain by the sword: they shall lie with the uncircumcised, and with them that go down to the pit.
30 There [be] the princes of the north, all of them, and all the Zidonians, which are gone down with the slain; with their terror they are ashamed of their might; and they lie uncircumcised with [them that be] slain by the sword, and bear their shame with them that go down to the pit.
31 Pharaoh shall see them, and shall be comforted over all his multitude, [even] Pharaoh and all his army slain by the sword, saith the Lord GOD.
32 For I have caused my terror in the land of the living: and he shall be laid in the midst of the uncircumcised with [them that are] slain with the sword, [even] Pharaoh and all his multitude, saith the Lord GOD.

EZEKIEL 38:1-23
1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
2  Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him,
3  And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:
4  And I will turn thee back, and put hooks into thy jaws, and I will bring thee forth, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts of armour, even a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords:
5  Persia,(IRAN,IRAQ) Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and helmet:
6  Gomer,(GERMANY) and all his bands; the house of Togarmah (TURKEY) of the north quarters, and all his bands: and many people with thee.(AFRICAN MUSLIMS,SUDAN,TUNESIA ETC)
7  Be thou prepared, and prepare for thyself, thou, and all thy company that are assembled unto thee, and be thou a guard unto them.
8  After many days thou shalt be visited: in the latter years thou shalt come into the land that is brought back from the sword, and is gathered out of many people, against the mountains of Israel, which have been always waste: but it is brought forth out of the nations, and they shall dwell safely all of them.
9  Thou shalt ascend and come like a storm, thou shalt be like a cloud to cover the land, thou, and all thy bands, and many people with thee.
10  Thus saith the Lord GOD; It shall also come to pass, that at the same time shall things come into thy mind, and thou shalt think an evil thought:
11  And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates,
12  To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land.
13  Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, with all the young lions thereof, shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take a spoil? hast thou gathered thy company to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil?(OIL IS IN SPOIL-I BELIEVE THATS WHY RUSSIA,ARAB/MUSLIMS MARCH TO ISRAEL)
14  Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say unto Gog, Thus saith the Lord GOD; In that day when my people of Israel dwelleth safely, shalt thou not know it?
15  And thou shalt come from thy place out of the north parts, thou, and many people with thee, all of them riding upon horses, a great company, and a mighty army:
16  And thou shalt come up against my people of Israel, as a cloud to cover the land; it shall be in the latter days, and I will bring thee against my land, that the heathen may know me, when I shall be sanctified in thee, O Gog, before their eyes.
17  Thus saith the Lord GOD; Art thou he of whom I have spoken in old time by my servants the prophets of Israel, which prophesied in those days many years that I would bring thee against them?
18  And it shall come to pass at the same time when Gog shall come against the land of Israel, saith the Lord GOD, that my fury shall come up in my face.
19  For in my jealousy and in the fire (atomic bomb) of my wrath have I spoken, Surely in that day there shall be a great shaking in the land of Israel;
20  So that the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the field, and all creeping things that creep upon the earth, and all the men that are upon the face of the earth, shall shake at my presence, and the mountains shall be thrown down, and the steep places shall fall, and every wall shall fall to the ground.
21  And I will call for a sword against him throughout all my mountains, saith the Lord GOD: every man’s sword shall be against his brother.
22  And I will plead against him with pestilence (biological,chemical,nuclear) and with blood; and I will rain upon him, and upon his bands, and upon the many people that are with him, an overflowing rain, and great hailstones, fire, and brimstone.(NUKED,THEN MIGRATING BIRDS EAT RUSSIA/ARAB/MUSLIMS FLESH)
23  Thus will I magnify myself, and sanctify myself; and I will be known in the eyes of many nations, and they shall know that I am the LORD.

EZEKIEL 39:1-29
1 Therefore, thou son of man, prophesy against Gog, and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:
2  And I will turn thee back, and leave but the sixth part of thee,(300 MILIION RUSSIA-ARAB-MUSLIMS GET NUKED BY ISRAEL) and will cause thee to come up from the north parts, and will bring thee upon the mountains of Israel:
3  And I will smite thy bow out of thy left hand, and will cause thine arrows to fall out of thy right hand.
4  Thou shalt fall upon the mountains of Israel, thou,(RUSSIA) and all thy bands,(RUSSIA SUPPORTED WITH WEAPONS-ARAB/MUSLIM COUNTRIES) and the people that is with thee: I will give thee unto the ravenous birds of every sort, and to the beasts of the field to be devoured.
5  Thou shalt fall upon the open field: for I have spoken it, saith the Lord GOD.
6  And I will send a fire (ATOMIC BOMB) on Magog, and among them that dwell carelessly in the isles: and they shall know that I am the LORD.
7  So will I make my holy name known in the midst of my people Israel; and I will not let them pollute my holy name any more: and the heathen shall know that I am the LORD, the Holy One in Israel.
8  Behold, it is come, and it is done, saith the Lord GOD; this is the day whereof I have spoken.
9  And they that dwell in the cities of Israel shall go forth, and shall set on fire and burn the weapons, both the shields and the bucklers, the bows and the arrows, and the handstaves, and the spears, and they shall burn them with fire seven years:
10  So that they shall take no wood out of the field, neither cut down any out of the forests; for they shall burn the weapons with fire: and they shall spoil those that spoiled them, and rob those that robbed them, saith the Lord GOD.
11  And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will give unto Gog a place there of graves in Israel, the valley of the passengers on the east of the sea: and it shall stop the noses of the passengers: and there shall they bury Gog and all his multitude: and they shall call it The valley of Hamongog.
12  And seven months shall the house of Israel be burying of them, that they may cleanse the land.
13  Yea, all the people of the land shall bury them; and it shall be to them a renown the day that I shall be glorified, saith the Lord GOD.
14  And they shall sever out men of continual employment, passing through the land to bury with the passengers those that remain upon the face of the earth, to cleanse it: after the end of seven months shall they search.
15  And the passengers that pass through the land, when any seeth a man’s bone, then shall he set up a sign by it, till the buriers have buried it in the valley of Hamongog.
16  And also the name of the city shall be Hamonah. Thus shall they cleanse the land.
17  And, thou son of man, thus saith the Lord GOD; Speak unto every feathered fowl, and to every beast of the field, Assemble yourselves, and come; gather yourselves on every side to my sacrifice that I do sacrifice for you, even a great sacrifice upon the mountains of Israel, that ye may eat flesh, and drink blood.
18  Ye shall eat the flesh of the mighty, and drink the blood of the princes of the earth, of rams, of lambs, and of goats, of bullocks, all of them fatlings of Bashan.
19  And ye shall eat fat till ye be full, and drink blood till ye be drunken, of my sacrifice which I have sacrificed for you.
20  Thus ye shall be filled at my table with horses and chariots, with mighty men, and with all men of war, saith the Lord GOD.
21  And I will set my glory among the heathen, and all the heathen shall see my judgment that I have executed, and my hand that I have laid upon them.
22  So the house of Israel shall know that I am the LORD their God from that day and forward.
23  And the heathen shall know that the house of Israel went into captivity for their iniquity: because they trespassed against me, therefore hid I my face from them, and gave them into the hand of their enemies: so fell they all by the sword.
24  According to their uncleanness and according to their transgressions have I done unto them, and hid my face from them.
25  Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Now will I bring again the captivity of Jacob, and have mercy upon the whole house of Israel, and will be jealous for my holy name;
26  After that they have borne their shame, and all their trespasses whereby they have trespassed against me, when they dwelt safely in their land, and none made them afraid.
27  When I have brought them again from the people, and gathered them out of their enemies’ lands, and am sanctified in them in the sight of many nations;
28  Then shall they know that I am the LORD their God, which caused them to be led into captivity among the heathen: but I have gathered them unto their own land, and have left none of them any more there.
29  Neither will I hide my face any more from them: for I have poured out my spirit upon the house of Israel, saith the Lord GOD.

Iran, Russia and China to hold joint naval drill in northern Indian Ocean-Marine Security Belt 2024 to focus on protection of maritime economic activity; Oman, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Pakistan, and South Africa reportedly to participate as observers-By Agencies Today, 12:54 pm-MAR 12,24

TEHRAN, Iran — Iran will begin a joint naval drill with Russia and China in the northern part of the Indian Ocean, state media reported Tuesday.Iran has stepped up its military cooperation with Beijing and Moscow in response to regional tensions with the United States, including by supplying military drones to Russia before the European nation invaded Ukraine in 2022. Visits to Iran by Russian and Chinese naval representatives have also increased in recent years.A report by state TV quoted the drill’s spokesperson, Adm. Mostafa Tajaddini, as saying that “Marine Security Belt 2024” will begin Tuesday in 17,000 square kilometers (6,600 square miles) of the water. The drill, he said, is aimed at “fostering security and multilateral cooperation,” as well as showing the allies’ goodwill and naval capacities.Tajaddini said that the three nations’ drill — their fourth since 2019 — was also meant to improve trade, confront “piracy and terrorism, support humanitarian activities, and exchange of information in the field of rescue,” among other goals.The report said Oman, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Pakistan, and South Africa would be observers in the drill.Russia’s defense ministry also announced the drills, saying they would be in the Gulf of Oman and that the exercise was to focus on the protection of maritime economic activity.

India tests missile capable of carrying multiple nuclear warheads-by AFP Staff Writers.

New Delhi (AFP) Mar 11, 2024-India has successfully test-fired a domestically developed ballistic missile capable of carrying multiple nuclear warheads for the first time, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said Monday.Modi said he was "proud" the launch of "the first flight test of indigenously developed Agni-5 missile with Multiple Independently Targetable Re-entry Vehicle (MIRV) technology", in comments on social media platform X.The MIRV technology enables the Agni-5 to carry several nuclear warheads at once, so they can split up and hit different targets.Modi did not give further details of the launch, but India has previously test-fired multiple Agni-5 missiles, developed by India's Defence Research and Development Organisation.Minister of Defence Rajnath Singh said on X that India had "joined the select group of nations" capable of the missile technology.Agni, meaning "fire" in Sanskrit, is the name given to a series of rockets India developed as part of a guided missile development project launched in 1983.While the shorter-range Agni-I and II were mainly developed with traditional rival Pakistan in mind, analysts say later versions with a longer range reflect the shift in India's focus towards China.India has deepened defence cooperation with Western countries in recent years, including in the Quad alliance with the United States, Japan and Australia.

GMV Spearheads Pioneering Cybersecurity Ventures Under INCIBE's Flagship Initiative-The cybersecurity of satellite networks is crucial for countries' protection and operations. Developing an SOC for the space industry will mitigate the risks of possible security incidents, protecting us against unintended socioeconomic and security consequences-by Hugo Ritmico.

Madrid, Spain (SPX) Mar 12, 2024-In a significant stride towards advancing cybersecurity and digital sovereignty, GMV has garnered support from the Spanish National Cybersecurity Institute (INCIBE) to kickstart the Luis Valle R and D+i Program. This initiative underscores two pivotal projects: the crafting of a self-sovereign digital identity solution and the establishment of a Cybersecurity Operations Center (SOC) specifically tailored for the space sector.At the heart of these endeavors is the empowerment of individuals in managing their digital identities, ensuring they have the autonomy to decide on the dissemination of their personal data online. This initiative is a leap towards enhancing digital self-governance and privacy in the internet realm.Parallelly, the SOC development for the space industry emerges as a critical measure to safeguard satellite networks, integral to national security and operational functionality. The program aims to preclude potential cyber incidents that could lead to widespread socioeconomic and security ramifications.The Luis Valle Program, buoyed by a public funding injection of euro 224 million from the IECPI, stands as the world's most well-funded cybersecurity project. Its objectives are multifaceted, encompassing national policy development, entrepreneurship stimulation, capability enhancement, and talent cultivation within the cybersecurity domain.Hector Estrada, the director of INCIBE's Transportation and Space sectors, highlighted the strategic significance of innovative public procurement in fostering innovation within Spain's industrial segment. He underscored INCIBE's mission to propel Spain into the global top five in cybersecurity, focusing on innovation, products, professionals, and services.Juan Jesus Leon and David Alvarez from GMV delved into the technical intricacies of developing a self-sovereign identity solution. They emphasized the shift towards user-centric digital identity management, leveraging blockchain technology and identity-based cryptography (IBC) to pioneer a new paradigm in online security and privacy.Julio Vivero, representing GMV's Secure e-Solutions international sector, elaborated on the importance of the SOC project for the space industry. He outlined the pivotal role of satellites in communications, Earth observation, navigation, and national security, stressing the imperative to mitigate cyber threats to maintain operational integrity and national security.Through the Luis Valle Program, GMV is poised to address critical cybersecurity challenges, from enhancing traceability and security within satellite control centers to developing specialized monitoring tools and incident response teams.

Terror suspects arrested in Europe had images of Jewish, Israeli targets — report-Afghan, Syrian refugees detained on suspicion of terror activities in December in Bosnia and Austria thought to be ‘motivated by Israel’s war against Hamas in Gaza’By ToI Staff and Agencies Today, 11:55 am-MAR 12,24

A number of terror suspects arrested in December in Bosnia and Austria had images of Jewish and Israeli targets on their cellphones, the Wall Street Journal reported Monday, citing investigators who said the photos “suggested they were motivated by Israel’s war against Hamas in Gaza.”According to the report, the suspects were among individuals in two separate groups of refugees from Afghanistan and Syria who were detained on suspicion of terror activities.The suspects were in possession of arms and ammunition including Kalashnikovs and pistols, the newspaper added.The report came as Italian police announced that they had arrested three Palestinians based in central Italy who they said were planning attacks in an unspecified country, with Israel requesting the extradition of one of them.The Italian police statement on Monday said that the three men had set up a cell linked to the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, an armed offshoot of Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas’s secular nationalist Fatah party. The group is considered a terrorist group by Israel, the European Union, and the United States.Investigators quoted in the Wall Street Journal report said these separate incidents suggest that the terror threat in Europe is “not only growing but also coming from new sources,” specifically pointing to “Iran and its proxies in the Middle East, including Hezbollah and Hamas.”A chart released by the Mossad and Shin Bet showing Hamas’s command structure in Europe, headed by senior terror leaders in Lebanon (PMO)-In January, Israeli intelligence agencies released details on a network of Hamas operatives in Europe commanded by terror leaders in Lebanon, with the aim of attacking Israeli and Jewish targets in Europe, Africa and the Middle East.The Mossad and Shin Bet agencies did not provide many further details on these findings, but said the network had been planning to attack Israel’s embassy in Sweden, buy UAVs, and utilize criminal organizations in Europe to support attacks.Israel has vowed to destroy Hamas after the terror group’s devastating October 7 attack in which terrorists killed some 1,200 people, mostly civilians, and abducted 253 others, over half of whom remain in Gaza.

Antisemitism in Switzerland nearly tripled by Hamas-Israel conflict, study shows-Review by Jewish community group and antisemitism watchdog finds 155 ‘real world’ incidents in 2023, 114 of them since October 7, compared to 57 for all of 2022-By Reuters and ToI Staff Today, 12:53 pm

ZURICH, Switzerland – The number of antisemitic incidents in Switzerland has leapt since the October 7 attacks by Hamas in Israel and the Israeli government’s subsequent response against the Islamist terror group in Gaza, according to a report published on Tuesday.The study by the Swiss Federation of Jewish Communities (SIG) and the Foundation against Racism and Antisemitism (GRA) showed the number of “real world” incidents shot up to 155 in 2023 — most of these after October 7 — from 57 the previous year.The “unprecedented increase” in cases included 10 physical assaults, compared to one in the previous year, the study said, along with verbal insults, graffiti, and antisemitic placards.“As a result of the dreadful terror attacks by Hamas on October 7, 2023, antisemitism has also manifested itself in Switzerland in a way that we could not imagine,” SIG president Ralph Lewin and his GRA counterpart Zsolt Balkanyi-Guery wrote in a foreword to the annual report.One of the most notorious recent cases occurred on March 2, when an Orthodox Jewish man was stabbed and left with life-threatening injuries by a Swiss teenager, an Islamic State supporter of Tunisian origin.The incident, described by SIG as the most serious antisemitic hate crime in Switzerland in two decades, caused widespread shock and concern and led to enhanced security for Jewish sites in Zurich, where the attack took place.About 114 of the antisemitic incidents in Switzerland last year occurred after October 7, the report said, the date of a massive attack by the Palestinian terror group Hamas on Israel. The thousands of attackers who burst through the border from the Gaza Strip into southern Israel killed 1,200 people amid horrific atrocities and abducted 253 people who were taken as hostages to Gaza.Israel responded with a military campaign to topple the Hamas regime in Gaza, destroy the terror group, and free the hostages, 130 of whom remain in captivity.Antisemitic incidents also picked up online, with 975 registered cases in 2023, up from 853 the previous year. Nearly half of the 2023 incidents were logged after October 7, the study found.There has been a similar spike in antisemitism in countries around the world in the wake of the Hamas attack, with much of it coming in the guise of pro-Palestinian activism.The Hamas-run health ministry in Gaza says the IDF offensive has now killed more than 31,000 people. These figures cannot be independently verified, and are believed to include both civilians and Hamas members killed in Gaza, including as a consequence of terror groups’ own rocket misfires. The IDF says it has killed over 13,000 terror operatives in Gaza since the war started, in addition to some 1,000 terrorists inside Israel on October 7.

As first ship sails, Israel to inspect all aid from Cyprus; aid groups will distribute-Official says increasing humanitarian aid to Gazans is crucial for international legitimacy during war; IDF to ensure no attacks or looting at new jetty built to accept goods-By Lazar Berman-Today, 2:05 pm-MAR 12,24

Israel has been working for three months on bringing aid to Gaza from Cyprus by ship, a senior Israeli official told The Times of Israel on Monday night, hours before a vessel inaugurating the sea route set sail from Larnaca.The official said that Israel understood early on that it needs international legitimacy to prosecute the campaign against Hamas, and that “international legitimacy is mainly the humanitarian issue.”Gaza has been facing a mounting humanitarian crisis since the war erupted with Hamas’s October 7 onslaught, which saw thousands of Hamas terrorists burst into Israel, killing 1,200 people and kidnapping another 253, mostly civilians, amid horrific acts of brutality and sexual assault.The humanitarian situation in Gaza has been the focus of international criticism of Israel’s war effort, including from the White House. According to anonymous US officials speaking to Politico, US President Joe Biden has considered placing conditions on military aid to Israel if it launches a widespread ground offensive in the southern Gaza city Rafah, where over a million internally displaced Palestinians are sheltering.Sea routes were an attractive option for Israel because they allow aid to be delivered to Gaza without requiring land crossings from Israel, helping to sever links to the Strip, said the official.“There was one condition – that everything is inspected, supervised, that we control it,” said the official. “That we can say from a security perspective, all sorts of things that we don’t want are not coming in.”Cypriot President Nikos Christodoulides offered the use of his country’s port in Larnaca months ago for a sea route for aid deliveries to Gaza, a 230-mile (370-kilometer) journey.Cyprus invited authorities from Israel, the US and other European countries to join Cypriot agents in vetting all shipments so nothing could be used by Hamas against Israel. The offer received strong interest from the Americans, Europeans and others, and extended planning followed.Representatives from the Foreign Ministry and COGAT flew to Larnaca to examine the port and work out with Cyprus how exactly the shipments would be secured.“We were in touch with several countries that wanted to do this, in our neighborhood, the US, also Gulf states,” said the official.The cargo will be examined by the Shin Bet and Israeli customs officials in Larnaca, then will sail for Gaza. For now, ships will dock at a temporary pier being built south of Gaza City by the World Central Kitchen.The WCK will unload the cargo, place it in temporary storage facilities it is building, and then send it to Gazan civilians.The IDF will have troops at a remove from the WKC facility to ensure there are no attacks on the aid workers or looting of the goods..@WCKitchen “Operation Safeena”, (boat,vessel) on its way!

(@chefjoseandres) March 12, 2024-The aid convoys will initially go to northern Gaza to make sure the mechanism works, then will also head south as the operation begins running more smoothly.“Our goal is to establish a maritime highway of boats and barges stocked with millions of meals continuously headed towards Gaza,” WCK founder and celebrity chef José Andrés and chief executive officer Erin Gore said in a statement.Most aid currently gets into the south of Gaza via land crossings at Kerem Shalom and the Rafah gateway into Egypt, but the official said use of those crossings will be constricted once fighting begins in Rafah. That means Israel will need to open crossings directly into the northern Gaza Strip, said the official.With the lack of port infrastructure, WCK is building a small landing jetty in Gaza with material from destroyed buildings and rubble. It has said it had another 500 tons of aid amassed in Cyprus which would also be dispatched.Spanish celebrity chef Jose Andres, founder of WCK, posted on X after the Open Arms had set sail that the jetty was still under construction.“We may fail, but the biggest failure will be not trying!” he wrote, alongside a nighttime photo of Gazans building the jetty with construction vehicles.WCK, a global organization created by Andrés after the devastating 2010 earthquake in Haiti, has also partnered with Israeli restaurants and catering companies to deliver thousands of meals to Israeli civilians and soldiers in destinations including Sderot, Beersheba and the Golan Heights.The IDF is not organizing its own convoys, the official stressed, because it needs to use troops for combat missions.Troops operate in Gaza, in a handout image published by the IDF on March 7, 2024. (Israel Defense Forces)“We want to do the maximum possible, with minimum manpower, to allow maximum humanitarian aid,” the official explained.The official added that there will be no limits imposed by Israel on the amount of food, medicine, and water that comes in.Israel is confident that once the sea lane begins working properly, the chances of a melee around shipments like a deadly incident last month will decline dramatically.“The more the population sees that there is a system, a mechanism, they will understand — then people won’t loot and fight over the aid,” said the official.As for the US-built pier announced by Biden during his State of the Union address last week, the details are still being worked out, said the official.“There is an IDF/Centcom group examining how exactly it will work,” the official said.WCK-provided aid has set sail for Gaza on the @openarms_fund boat.

Switzerland to try Assad’s uncle for alleged war crimes in Syria in 1982-Rifaat Assad charged at Swiss Federal Criminal Court with ‘ordering homicides, acts of torture, cruel treatments and illegal detentions’ when he led Syrian troops in Hama-By Reuters Today, 2:52 pm-MAR 12,24

GENEVA — Switzerland’s Attorney General’s Office said on Tuesday that it would put on trial Rifaat Assad, an uncle of Syrian President Bashar Assad, for war crimes and crimes against humanity dating back to his time as a commander in the Syrian military in 1982.The office said in a statement that Assad was charged at the Swiss Federal Criminal Court with “ordering homicides, acts of torture, cruel treatments and illegal detentions” in February 1982 when he had charge of troops in the western city of Hama.Known to critics as the “Butcher of Hama” for crushing an insurrection in the Syrian city, Assad, a former vice president of the country, commanded troops accused of killing thousands of people to quell a Muslim Brotherhood uprising. The nearly monthlong slaughter remains one of the bloodiest cases in history of an Arab government attacking its own people.Assad, who was not immediately available for comment, has previously denied responsibility for the Hama deaths.According to the Swiss prosecutors’ indictment, the conflict between the Syrian armed forces and their Islamist opponents caused between 3,000 and 60,000 deaths in Hama, mostly civilians.Rifaat Assad, 86, lived in exile, mostly in France, from the mid-1980s, after being accused of trying to topple his brother, then-Syrian president Hafez Assad, Bashar’s father.He returned to Syria in 2021, escaping jail in France, where he was found guilty of acquiring millions of euros of property using funds diverted from the Syrian state.The Swiss Attorney General’s Office initiated war crimes proceedings against Assad in December 2013 under the principle of universal jurisdiction and non-applicability of statutory limitations to war crimes.Police established that Assad was present in Swiss territory when the investigation was initiated. Several victims filed civil complaints within the office’s criminal proceeding.Times of Israel staff contributed to this report.

Analysis-Relying on local clans to run postwar Gaza should be off the table, experts warn-Seeking alternatives to Hamas and PA, Israel has proposed handing over civilian affairs to local families, a solution that failed in the past and is unlikely to work today-By Gianluca Pacchiani
Today, 7:07 pm-MAR 12,24

Israel, while reluctant to flesh out a postwar scenario for Gaza, has repeatedly rejected a proposal favored by the US and much of the international community to restore the Palestinian Authority’s rule over Gaza. In seeking an alternative to both the PA and the Hamas terror regime, which it has vowed to eradicate, Israel has been floating the possibility of Gazan clans running the Strip’s civilian affairs, while the IDF would retain security control.Some experts are dubious about the feasibility of Israel’s proposal; a similar attempt was made decades ago, unsuccessfully. But experts’ skepticism is mainly due to the diminished clout that clans now hold in contemporary Gazan society, and the inevitable influence that established Palestinian political movements would exert over them.“The clans are a thing of the past,” said Yohanan Tzoreff, a senior researcher at the Tel Aviv Institute for National Security Studies (INSS), and an expert on Israeli-Palestinian relations. “Relying on them is relying on a broken reed.”A common social structure in the Arab world, clans are agglomerations of families that forge alliances based on a presumed common ancestry. In the Gaza Strip, the larger clans — such as the Dughmush, the Sinwar, the Hilles, the Radwan, and the al-Masri to name a few — can reach up to 15,000 or 20,000 members, said Dror Zeevi, a professor of Middle East Studies at Ben Gurion University. In Gaza, each typically commands a specific economic sector, in agriculture, manufacturing or trading.The main issue with entrusting clans with the governance of Gaza, according to the two experts, is that, since 2008, they are not powerful enough to manage the area independently and to compete against the influence and deeply embedded presence of either Fatah, the party led by PA President Mahmoud Abbas, or Hamas, the terror group that rules Gaza.“If Israel decides to depend on a series of clans, their chiefs would quickly go to the Palestinian Authority and get their marching orders from them. They’re not going to get them from Israel. So you’ll end up having Hamas or PA rule anyway,” said Zeevi.Tzoreff concurred. “Whoever goes behind the back of the nationalist movements to speak with Israel will run into trouble.”The Israeli security establishment has also put forth a stopgap solution to task local families with the distribution of humanitarian aid in an attempt to prevent disasters such as the one that occurred on February 29, in which dozens died as they rushed to grab food from an aid truck.“Israel can perhaps make small humanitarian agreements with the clans,” Zeevi said. “But there’s no way that they can be effective as a controlling power in Gaza. Israel needs to choose between the PA and Hamas. There’s nothing in between.”Unable to compete with nationalistic movementsUntil the late 1980s, clans played a central role in the Palestinian territories. In Gaza, clans were organized in a council of mukhtars, or chieftains, that liaised with the Israeli civilian administration from 1967 until the outbreak of the First Intifada in 1987.Some of the clans actively cooperated with Israel, Zeevi explained, like the Hellis, who later became affiliated with Fatah against Hamas, and the “aristocratic” Shawwa family, from which Israel appointed a Gaza City mayor in 1971.Realizing the clans’ potential to alleviate the burden of managing civilian affairs, Israel even attempted to create family-based political structures in the late 1970s and early 1980s in the West Bank called “village associations” as a moderate alternative to the PLO, the precursor to the Palestinian Authority. The experiment only lasted a few years, as many of the association’s leaders were accused of treason by other Palestinians.With the outbreak of the First Intifada in 1987, which saw hundreds of thousands taking to the streets to protest Israeli rule, Palestinian nationalist movements such as Fatah, the Popular Front, and the Democratic Front gained a large foothold in Palestinian society. Hamas was officially established as an Islamist movement in the early days of the First Intifada and gradually ascended to compete with the other secular parties.David Hacham, a retired IDF colonel who served in Gaza’s military administration of civilian affairs between 1985 and 1993, described the outbreak of mass revolts as a “generational change” in Gazan society. Hacham recalled a meeting with the head of the mukhtars, Musa Abu Sha’ban, immediately after the launch of the First Intifada in December 1987. “He came into my office, and he was almost crying. Young people had taken control of the streets. He was afraid that his power was over,” he told The Times of Israel.With the start of the First Intifada, political groupings rendered the clan structure obsolete in the broader governance of Gaza.“All the clans lost their importance,” said Tzoreff. “Mukhtars who used to speak with Israel before the intifada became irrelevant in the eyes of their community. Israel also stopped talking with them, and started speaking with the leadership of the intifada instead.”Nevertheless, the clans retained control of large segments of the economy and wielded considerable influence at the local level. After Israel’s unilateral disengagement from Gaza in 2005, some clans filled the power vacuum by establishing near-autonomous zones with their own militias and informal justice and welfare systems, according to a 2007 report by Crisis Group, a left-leaning think tank based in Brussels that works to promote policy solutions to conflicts.When Hamas took control of Gaza in 2007, it initially confronted the clans aggressively. Powerful families such as the Abu Samhadanas in Rafah had enriched themselves by controlling the decades-old underground tunnels through which goods and people were smuggled from Egypt into the Gaza Strip, and posed a challenge to the terror group’s rule. Some clans had their own militias.After violent clashes with clans in 2008, however, the Islamist party found a “modus vivendi” with the clans, Zeevi said, respecting their leaders and avoiding interference.Some of the clans entered close cooperation with Hamas, while others kept their distance, including those that were more aligned with Fatah and the PA. But even the latter had to “hedge their bets,” Zeevi said, so they would send some of their people to take up jobs inside Hamas-run institutions to maintain a working relationship with the terror group.‘We can’t turn back the clock of history’In the event of Israel maintaining control over Gaza after the war, retired colonel Hacham posited that in Gaza’s traditional, conservative society, family-centered structures are still a dominant force and can work as a liaison between the Israeli government and the local population. According to Hacham, clans are still a preferable alternative to the ailing PA, which is perceived by its citizenry as corrupt and ineffective and has already lost control over parts of the West Bank.Tzoreff, on the other hand, did not believe that Israel could retain long-term military and civilian control of Gaza: “No international partners would be willing to cooperate with us,” he warned. He saw no alternative to a “rehabilitated” Palestinian government taking control of the Strip, as per the American vision.To Tzoreff, the power decline of the clans in favor of nationalist political movements has been an inevitable consequence of the development of a Palestinian national consciousness since the First Intifada, when the conflict spread throughout in the West Bank and Gaza.“In every society, there is an initial phase when the community is centered around families and tribes. At a later stage, the idea of peoplehood emerges. This also applies to the Palestinians,” said Tzoreff. “Does anyone actually believe that we can turn back the clock of history and return the Palestinians to the days when they did not regard themselves as a people? It makes no sense. We can’t run the process in reverse.”
