"This is America at its best—standing firm for its people, brokering peace through strength, and offering hope to those in despair." . . .
"For over 600 days, families across America and Israel have lived with a gnawing ache, their loved ones held captive in Gaza’s shadows by Hamas terrorists after the attack at the Nova music festival that started the Israel-Hamas War. Think of a young man, barely out of his teens, or a parent torn from their children, enduring unimaginable horrors from a group that has no claims to the Jewish homeland.
"Their stories weigh heavily on our hearts and our minds. Yet, at a White House dinner Friday night, President Donald Trump delivered a beacon of hope: ten more hostages will be coming home “very shortly.”
"The announcement came amid a celebration of Republican achievements, from slashing wasteful spending to securing our borders. He did this after just signing the GENIUS Act for Bitcoin regulation. But it was Trump’s focus on the hostages that cut through the noise. “Gaza – we got most of the hostages back,” he declared, crediting his administration’s relentless diplomacy. Already, five American hostages have been brought home—three alive, two tragically deceased. Now, with ten more on the cusp of freedom, Trump’s leadership is proving that strength and compassion can coexist.
"Hamas, a terrorist group that thrives on chaos, has long stalled progress, holding innocent lives as bargaining chips. Their demands for Israel’s complete withdrawal from Gaza show a callous disregard for the suffering they prolong." . . .
Study: Mainstream Media Peddled Hamas Propaganda to Smear Israel and U.S.-Backed Gaza Aid Group
A new study has found that the U.S. and European mainstream media have been complicit in spreading biased and false narratives to malign Israel and discredit the U.S.-backed humanitarian operation currently un[der]way in Gaza.
. . ."The study found that the United Nations, international aid organizations, and activists run a consolidated campaign against the U.S.-backed humanitarian organization.
"The tone of their campaign became even more vicious and angry after seeing the success GHF was having on the ground in Gaza:
The data suggest a pattern: narrative attacks on GHF intensify in response to successful aid delivery. For certain actors, including those affiliated with the United Nations, humanitarian NGOs, and media influencers, operational success by GHF does not reduce hostility, but rather triggers it. These entities have framed humanitarian access by GHF as a threat to the political and ideological narratives upon which they depend, instead of as a neutral good. (Page 25)
"The current media campaign against Israel is not driven by some legitimate criticism of certain policies adopted or measures taken by the Israeli government or its armed forces, but is rooted in a deep-seated urge to malign the Jewish state, the study observes:
These findings are not simply evidence of heightened criticism or anti-Israel sentiment, they reflect a deeper moral distortion. The belief that Israel is intentionally starving children or deliberately targeting hospitals under the pretense of counterterrorism is not grounded in verifiable fact. These are not legitimate policy critiques; they are fabricated atrocity narratives that reframe Israel’s actions as genocidal, regardless of evidence to the contrary. (Page 24)
"The groups and activists running the present campaign care more about smearing Israel than the well-being of the people of Gaza. Their “behavior reflects a deeper structural alignment in which humanitarian outcomes are subordinated to narrative control,” the study notes."
