Wed night: The baby was rescued via C-section and is in serious condition. The husband was lightly wounded and survived. The pregnant mother, Tzeela Gez, died as a result of the shooting, and was buried the next day on Thurs. She is the mother of three or four depending on how one counts it.

It was European mass murder of Jews in the 30’s and 40’s which brought about the new word, antisemitism. Also genocide was coined then. So it’s doubly rich for European politicians to demonstrate their continued antisemitism thru falsely accusing Jews of genocie.
In the Gaza War of 2014:
Gaza population before the war: 1.3 million
After the war: 1.3 million.
Yes, false accusations of genocide abounded.
In the Oct 7 war begun in 2023:
Population prior: 2.3 million
Population as of 2025: 2.3 million
No genocide.
Talks of relocation to the Sinai or other places, whether temporary or permanent – well, that’s not genocide either. That’s relocation. Refugee status. Other terms other than genocide may apply.
But these people use the term genocide anyway, on repeat, because it inflames their target audience’s emotions to more and more Jew-hatred (antisemitism).
Remember for a moment that thru Israel, every Gazan was previously offered $50k USD plus free passage to a safe country in return for one hostage (Prisoner of War) given up to Israel. Not a single Gazan accepted that offer. They chose to continue the war.
Not to mention that in 2007 they all voted for a Hamas government soon after Israel gave them the free mini-state of Gaza.
And of course on Oct 7 thousands of Gazans danced and celebrated in the streets while Israeli POWs were dragged thru their streets being kicked and beaten, dead or alive, including little children, women, and the elderly.

But now according to that poll, half of them now would like Israel to assist their departure.
Why? Because I see that the USA is angling to make more peace with more of the moderate Arab nations. In 2021 when Trump left the White House, Saudi Arabia was very very close to signing the Abraham Accords. Of course, the Biden/Harris administration had no interest in more peace with more Arabs, so they sat on their hands and let the deal fade. Now that Trump is back, Saudi Arabia is again close to signing. So the goal is for moderate Arab nations to join together with Israel and the USA to be strong and take a stand against the Iranian axis.
Let’s take a moment and celebrate that children are being rescued and child sex offenders are getting arrested and taken to have their trials in court:

Decades ago, Ron Wyatt conducted an amateur investigation of this boat-shaped structure in the Mountains of Ararat, using what he said was the best underground X-ray technology available at the time. His team showed videos of large iron rivets which could have been used to fasten beams of wood together. They claimed that these thousands of iron artifacts mapped out a 3D framework of the skeleton of a boat with ribs which matched the Biblical dimensions described in the book of Genesis.
Ron Wyatt’s work has its fair share of supporters and critics. Coming up will be the first professional investigation conducted by the archeological community:
Captured from Jerusalem Post on 5 May, 2025.
Reading the article, it occurs to me that the earthquake that uncovered this strange shape on the hills occurred in May of 1948–the same month* and year of Israel’s Declaration of Independence and the start of the war:
“The Durupınar hill first drew attention in May 1948, after earthquakes and torrential rains stripped away overburden. Turkish Army Captain İlhan Durupınar re-examined the site in 1959 while mapping the region for NATO and forwarded his photographs to Ankara, giving the outcrop its current name.”
When Ron Wyatt noticed the arial photos in a publication, he thought that it looked boat-shaped and started to think about making a trip, which he did in the 1980’s.
Now in 2025 it appears that the professional archeologists have made headway in agreements with the Turkish government to finally get started.
*In 1948 on the Gregorian Calendar, Israel’s Independence was declared on May 14, which was the 5th of Iyar, the second month of the year which begins at Aviv, in the springtime, the month of Passover. Year to year, the 5th of Iyar* will appear on various days from April to May on the Gregorian Calendar. In the event that the 5th lands on a weekly Shabbat, the celebration day would be moved a couple days to honor the Shabbat which holds the higher position in honor.
