Hamas is expected to fully exploit its home field advantage in Gaza, using its maze of tunnels to stage ambushes against Israeli forces. Yet the IDF has no choice but to plan a full invasion.

The worst of the Australian media coverage

October 19, 2023 | Allon Lee

The wealth of video and audio footage showing in sickening detail the enormity of the crimes against humanity that Hamas’ terrorists perpetrated against Israeli civilians on October 7 resulted in the unusual situation wherein media coverage was overwhelmingly sympathetic to Israel. Of course, this did not mean there was no problematic content.

How Israel’s internal divisions helped spark the bloody Hamas massacre

October 12, 2023 | Tzvi Fleischer
