This was a fine piece of analysis. There is no point in trying to alter world opinion. It is only important to have world support with military supplies. Clearly the world remains nazified and now with fresh support from radical Muslim antisemitism that is already entrenched in the west. An Arabic-Muslim peacekeeping force in Gaza sounds like the best way to keep things quiet. Moderate Arabs may have a problem with terrorists. Peace serves the interest of the countries nearby that see the great economic benefit of a peaceful relationship with Israel. Count on Qatar-Iran-Hamas to try to undermine that. They are more interested in Islamic jihad than in the benefit to their citizens and they never stopped at killing their own people.
All of the above is true and incisive. The West is lost to its own incompetence, cowardice, gullibility and, yes, anti-Semitism. The knee jerk response of the French, U.K., Canadians, and Australians is the mantra of the “two-state solution,” which has become both an article of religious faith and geopolitical fantasy. In the U.S. , the same is true of the Democratic Party especially on the Left. The UN and the “main stream media” have become irrelevant except for their capacity to feed the dogs of war and fan the flames of anti-Semitism. The same with the NGOs and so-called “human rights”/“humanitarian” groups. No matter what Israel does, it will be condemned. So, perhaps, Israel should consider the bargaining chip it has in the form of terrorists sitting in Israel’s prisons serving life sentences. The worst of the worst. This is just a thought experiment, sort of gaming it out. The hostage families have suffered and continue to suffer in ways most of us cannot imagine. And Bibi is limited in his options. But what if Israel told Hamas that if all the hostages, living and deceased, were not released in 24 hours, it would begin executing the prisoners, the worst of the worst. The world would lose what little mind it has left. At the same time, families of the prisoners might put pressure on the leaders of Hamas. In addition, now that the Arab League has unanimously called on Hamas to disarm, end the war, and release the hostages, it’s time for the Arab League to be useful and back up its words with action, including helping evacuate the remaining Gazans. Naturally, they will be called collaborators, but this is the result of the governments’ decades-long brainwashing of the “Arab Street” to demonize Israel and the Jewish People. Just some brainstormimg here.
Aaron, I have said a similar thing elsewhere with no reply. Since Israel releases 200 criminals back to hamas for each hostage, I suggest executing 200 criminals for each hostage remaining and maybe 500 criminals for any hostage harmed or killed from this moment forward. It is no wonder the moderate Arab countries don't want to host the radicalized "Palestinians." They are dangerous loose cannons. The only catch is we see death as undesirable and I don't think they do.
The Gazans are a jihadist death cult. It’s an ideology where life means nothing other than achieving martyrdom. Promises such as “ not even one night in the grave - rather instant paradise “ are money back guarantees, and no one has ever asked for their money back.
Move the General Assembly to Gaza and force the UN to deal with the death cult. Let the rest of the diplomatic world experience Israel’s dilemma.
100 % correct … the Arab League has said that Hamas MUST DISARM AND can NOT stay in power in Gaza … Qatar, the purveyors of terrorism is NOT listening, NOBODY. is listening .. wake up WORLD !
Meanwhile Israel is left vilified for not ending the war.
Qatar gains acceptance in western circles by cosying to British royalty and investing vast sums in legitimate western businesses and property, all the while it being run by an evil bunch of leaders.
Qatar funds the Muslim Brotherhood, a terrorist organisation banned in many Arab countries, so surely a time will come when Qatar will be in the crosshairs of an Israeli military strike.
Honestly, nothing new here. Hamas’s strategy from day one has remained the same; survive in some shape manner or form so as to be able to regenerate itself and make sure Israel suffers the maximum amount of PR and international political damage in the process.
Problem is that the Israeli government insists on fighting this war as a traditional war which just plays into Hamas’s hands. And we will continue to play into Hamas’s hands until the Israeli government understands implementing the “day after” plan has to be part of the strategy for defeating Hamas. The only thing that will defeat Hamas is an alternative future being created in the ground.
The challenge is much like post-WWII deNazification, which is of course no coincidence.
Your brilliant analysis needs to be widely disseminated to shift the PR paradigm so that the blame for civilian casualties collapses upon and crushes Hamas and its Iranian puppetmasters as well as Putin, who is the man behind the curtain.
I sincerely doubt there is anything Israel, or anyone else, can do or say that would succeed in shifting “the blame for civilian casualties” from Israel to “Hamas and its Iranian puppet-masters”.
“There is no one so blind, as those who will not to see.” - Author Unknown
A genuine global Christian revival might significantly reduce the scale of outrageous support for Hamas, and against Israel, but would constitute a miracle of the highest order. As I believe in a miracle working God, it could happen…
However, if there was anything else, outside the realm of the miraculous, that might make a significant shift in public attitudes towards Hamas and Israel, I believe it would be to make the full, unedited, 45-minute October 7th compilation from Hamas Go-Pros and radio/telephone intercepts available for free public viewing worldwide.
To the extent it is possible, I understand the pain this would cause to the thousands of grieving family members and friends of those who were slaughtered, or taken captive.
I don’t take that agony and the sanctity of the victims memory lightly at all. I cringe to think of what it would be like if I were such a relative, friend, or former co-worker.
But, the world is apparently being swept up in a rapidly strengthening mass psychosis, and such a shock might be sufficient to break its grip on a significant number of people.
In the meantime, I pray to God that this evil continue to be restrained, and exposed as ‘the doctrine of demons’ that it is. And for Israel to have the courage of conviction, as well as the unity, wisdom, enabling, and protection necessary to do what must be done, regardless of how the world reacts.
I agree that the video must be made available online, free for all to see, with zero restrictions. But the military analysis of Hamas’ cynical strategy is in my view is even more damning.
As to miracles, that’s the business we’re in. You've gotta believe. The miracles always come in the last act😏.
I understand your point, but the mass psychosis/delusion that grips the world has already shown itself resistant to virtually all those claims.
As one prior Commenter stated, there’s really nothing new revealed by Andrew; it is simply collated and presented in a clearer, logically cohesive, comprehensive manner. But the general facts have been widely declared by quite a few sources for quite a long time, including by Andrew.
And the results thus far speak for themselves.
I am not saying it would be pointless to amplify the message, and I will certainly re-stack it myself. But as various specialists in mass psychology have shared elsewhere, the only effective way to break people out of the grip of a mass psychosis, is through a shock that reaches deeper than that which holds them, be it a greater fear, or the shock of witnessing a horrific, counter-narrative reality.
It may already be too late for the video documentation to penetrate deeply enough to dump the wind out of the collective sails of insanity. And I understand the hesitancy in doing so before now. But this fire is long past ‘out of control, and it’s the only practical option that has ever had any realistic potential to succeed in doing so.
I have never seen it so clearly stated before. It hit me with the clarity of a silver bullet between the eyes (not that it was news —I have known for years).
Sharing this messaging with the film forces the evil doers on the defensive of the indefensible. As time goes on it becomes more and more obvious what’s going on.
The demons help, like the grifters inundating Substack with scam
Spam. They became as irritating as mosquitoes in a malarial swamp. Are they scamming for Hamas, or are they North Koreans kleptocrating? Who knows? Who cares? Doesn't really matter.
Michael Snyder wrote a great stack today about how Islam is taking over the world. Think about the multiple of Muslims vs Nazis at their height, yet they share the same objective-genocide of 15 million jews. This message needs to be shared everywhere.
In the immortal words of Sting, they go crazy in congregations, they only get better one by one.
Mistakes have been made throughout this war, but most especially, there should have been no negotiating or calls for ceasefires, both that are not effective with terrorists. The Arabs have always had the "gift" of infinite patience, so if it takes another ten, twenty, hundred years or more, they will plan patiently and wait for that opportune moment to strike again. Their hatred of Jews goes so deep, and has for so long, that their only goal is the destruction of Israel and the death of all Jews everywhere. If people don't believe it, just look at what is going on in the UK, Australia, Canada, Germany, Belgium, and other countries is more than enough proof of what they can achieve. In fact, war may not be necessary because they're taking over without a shot being fired.
Instead of a two state delusion, the UN needs to champion the Abraham Accords. Maybe the palistinians would have a future beyond martyrdom, if they learned to seize the same opportunities as their “brothers “.
It's a lovely thought, but as we've seen time and time again, the Palestinians will only be satisfied if Israel and the Jews are gone. The other delusion is that the UN would champion the Abraham Accords. Not in this life, anyway.
All true, yes. This is why Israel/Netanyahu is planning security forces with a mix of soldiers from the moderate Arab states that are eager for the New Middle East to get underway: Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Jordan. The UAE is very supportive of the new plans, too, and will likely provide security forces. These Arab forces will be designed to keep any insurgency down during rebuilding of Gaza, and creating the New Middle East. There will also be less resentment among the population if they have Arab-speaking, Muslim security forces that also serve to reassure and re-educate the indoctrinated population. Islamic terrorism/ideology simply cannot exist if the M.E. is to pull out of the Middle Ages and into the modern world. The moderate Arab states very much want and need the New Middle East to happen because they are as threatened by Iran and her terror proxies as Israel is. It's a big job, but it can and must work; after all, it was possible to un-brainwash people in Germany and Japan post World War Two.
The solution is a population transfer. Move all arabs out of Gaza, Judea and Samaria and into either Iraq, Libya or Algeria. Trump originally suggested moving arabs out of gaza and making it a tourist area. If Trump can be convinced population transfer is the answer then it can be done. If you can dream it you can do it.
Hamas is running a psyop trying to get the world to tell Israel to, in essence, ignore October 7th and leave those poor Gazaniacs alone. The population there overwhelmingly supports Hamas but this terrorist group is using these citizens as cannon fodder in support of their psyop and if anyone disagrees then it's time to meet Allah. This human expenditure reminds me of the title of the John Wayne and Robert Montgomery PT boat film "They Were Expendable."
Keeping in mind "when you have lemons, make lemonade" how about the following:
IDF remains on the Philadelphi Corridor (the Egypt/Gaza Border) and at other critical points in Gaza, continue to send in food and medical supplies to all of Gaza, continue to negotiate for hostages, and just wait out Hamas. Hamas is currently surrounded in Gaza City with constant surveillance by air (drones). The Arab League has stated that Hamas should give up the hostages and leave Gaza. No post war civil administration can proceed until they leave.
The PR message (which happens to be true) should be: Hamas is holding up everything. Further, other events may influence the situation. Such as designation of Muslim Brotherhood as a Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO) in the USA and continued polling showing majorities in countries in the West where negative opinions of Islam are increasing. For example, the attached July 2025 survey of UK opinion about Islam, on the question "Generally speaking, do you think Islam is or is not compatible with British values?" 25% yes, 53% no. https://d3nkl3psvxxpe9.cloudfront.net/documents/AhmadiyyaMuslimAssociationUK_Results_250717_W_nuxhgwj.pdf
All that is required is for Israel to capture total control of Gaza, announce a draconian regime whereby Arab Muslims who remain in Gaza rather than leave will be subject to tight control, mosques will be closed, any disturbance of public order will be met with severe penalties for everyone linked to it, and flood Gaza with Jews. When Muslims lose territory they will understand the immensity of their murderous folly. Then Israel will also destroy the PA and exert sovereignty over Judea and Samaria and the mislabeled Palestinian question will be off our tv screens. When the world sees that Israel means business it will shut up and move on. And if western Europe, Canada and Australia wish to be taken over by Muslims, they are welcome to that self-induced scenario. The world is a big place. Israel does not need antisemitic charity and it certainly does not need arguments that tell it there is no chance for victory when victory is within its grasp. One is under no obligation to treat Palestinians other than with the penalty they so richly deserve. There are no innocent Palestinians.
A masterful analysis of the situation on the ground in Gaza, Andrew! One that is also sobering and realistic. Hamas’ greatest strength has always been their ability to adapt and regenerate. I believe if Israel truly wants to decisively defeat and destroy Hamas, here is what they must do: The IDF must shift from fighting a conventional war to fighting a counterinsurgency operation and Israel must annex Gaza and bring it under Israeli sovereignty again. Bibi keeps saying he wants to turn over Gaza to “a responsible Arab entity” like who? Palestinian technocrats? They’d either be supportive of Hamas or Hamas would assassinate them and seize power again. An Arab coalition? Well that’s a better idea, but I’m still not convinced they could hold off Hamas and other Islamist groups. Israel is the one who can govern Gaza and develop it best. Bibi needs to listen to the critics and change things up in terms of strategy and stop being afraid to govern and resettle Gaza. Gaza is at least in part, Jewish land and has been so since the second century BC.
Israel needs to think like Hamas in order to win, so they need to stop with the air strikes and full frontal assaults and counterinsurgency tactics should be adopted. Adapt as they do to the ever changing situation on the battlefield. Win the support of local Gazans through a hearts and minds campaign. Put the Aman and the Mossad to work collecting as much intelligence as they can. They should use Mizrahi Jewish and Israeli Arab agents as well as cultivate native Gazan sources. The CIA should directly assist them in locating Hamas militants and bases. A shadow war will be more effective than trying to use brute strength. Hamas must be undermined from within. The Aman and Mossad should stoke dissent within the ranks in Hamas and get them fighting amongst themselves.
Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Bahrain, Morocco, and Sudan should all put maximum pressure on Hamas to surrender unconditionally, turn over all the hostages and voluntarily leave Gaza for permanent exile to Latin America or Africa. They will push Hamas to disarm. Israel will shut down UNRWA and all of its staff members will be arrested or deported back to their country of origin. Israel will officially cut all ties to Ireland, Spain and Norway. Their embassies will be closed and their ambassadors will be told to go home. All the above Arab countries will immediately put every single Palestinian refugee in their country on a pathway to citizenship.
At the war’s conclusion Israel will demilitarize, de-radicalize and de-Hsmasify the strip. A Governor-General will be appointed to run the strip and will report directly to the Prime Minister. All Jihadist political parties will be banned as will the flying of the Hamas flag. All Gazans will be granted permanent residency and representation in the Knesset. If they can prove they are a loyal and of good character, they will be given Israeli citizenship and the right to vote. Jewish settlements will be constructed and those who were forced to leave in 2005 should have the right to return if they wish. The IDF will train a new Gazan police force and the IDF will form a special Gazan volunteer unit to help preserve law and order. The Palestinian Popular Forces should remain in tact and assist in securing the country as well, collaborating directly with the IDF. The Israeli should make peace with local tribal elders and organized crime families. Women, blacks, Christians, and LGBTQ+ people should be protected and empowered. There should be affirmative action programs for women, blacks and Christians. Safe havens should be created for LGBTQ+ Gazans. Freedom of speech and religion should be instituted immediately. Racial segregation will be ended and all slaves in Gaza emancipated. The Gazan Humanitarian Foundation will continue their vital work.
Rescind the perennial refugee status officially - make the UN say the words. Make the UN officially denounce the two state delusion.
The EU cannot deal with the Ukraine/Russia crisis. Why would we think the EU will do anything other than meekly follow the UN in rescinding the perennial refugee status?
Move the General Assembly to Gaza as a redevelopment project and the Europeans will fall in line.
The EU has 450 million people and an economy of 19 trillion dollars. They should have already delt with Russia, a country of 120 million people and a 2 trillion dollar economy. Call their bluff. Rubio has already started the ball rolling.
This "resistance" is really sick!!! I understand antisemitism and its long history but these "resistance fighters" are taking it to the max. It boggles my mind how anyone can go along with it all and think they are doing the world a favor. I don't think Israel has any choice but to go in and try to gain ground and hopefully appeal to the Gazans that they have a choice to better themselves and their growing families. What a mess!!!
OK what’s the bad news? There will not be another deal for hostages unless it includes all of them. Israel is done playing that game and nobody can force them to a negotiated solution if it means hostages remain in Gaza and Hamas can plan another Oct 7th. Would the Allies have come to a deal with Nazi Germany for some of the concentration camp prisoners or POW’s? Of course not. You press on until the threat is eliminated.
This was a fine piece of analysis. There is no point in trying to alter world opinion. It is only important to have world support with military supplies.

Abraham accords need UN approval.

Sobering. Though nothing we didn't already know. Since 2005.
All I know is Hamas is pure evil. It must be destroyed, somehow.
Keeping in mind "when you have lemons, make lemonade" how about the following:

They will push Hamas to disarm. Israel will shut down UNRWA and all of its staff members will be arrested or deported back to their country of origin. Israel will officially cut all ties to Ireland, Spain and Norway. Their embassies will be closed and their ambassadors will be told to go home. All the above Arab countries will immediately put every single Palestinian refugee in their country on a pathway to citizenship.
At the war’s conclusion Israel will demilitarize, de-radicalize and de-Hsmasify the strip. A Governor-General will be appointed to run the strip and will report directly to the Prime Minister. All Jihadist political parties will be banned as will the flying of the Hamas flag. All Gazans will be granted permanent residency and representation in the Knesset. If they can prove they are a loyal and of good character, they will be given Israeli citizenship and the right to vote. Jewish settlements will be constructed and those who were forced to leave in 2005 should have the right to return if they wish. The IDF will train a new Gazan police force and the IDF will form a special Gazan volunteer unit to help preserve law and order. The Palestinian Popular Forces should remain in tact and assist in securing the country as well, collaborating directly with the IDF. The Israeli should make peace with local tribal elders and organized crime families. Women, blacks, Christians, and LGBTQ+ people should be protected and empowered. There should be affirmative action programs for women, blacks and Christians. Safe havens should be created for LGBTQ+ Gazans. Freedom of speech and religion should be instituted immediately. Racial segregation will be ended and all slaves in Gaza emancipated. The Gazan Humanitarian Foundation will continue their vital work.
All this for a death cult?
Rescind the perennial refugee status officially - make the UN say the words. Make the UN officially denounce the two state delusion.
The EU cannot deal with the Ukraine/Russia crisis. Why would we think the EU will do anything other than meekly follow the UN in rescinding the perennial refugee status?
Move the General Assembly to Gaza as a redevelopment project and the Europeans will fall in line.
The EU has 450 million people and an economy of 19 trillion dollars. They should have already delt with Russia, a country of 120 million people and a 2 trillion dollar economy. Call their bluff. Rubio has already started the ball rolling.
This "resistance" is really sick!!! I understand antisemitism and its long history but these "resistance fighters" are taking it to the max. It boggles my mind how anyone can go along with it all and think they are doing the world a favor. I don't think Israel has any choice but to go in and try to gain ground and hopefully appeal to the Gazans that they have a choice to better themselves and their growing families. What a mess!!!
Their greatest achievement is martyrdom. Why study to be a doctor if your life’s goal is to become a martyr?
Move the UN General Assembly to Gaza to see the insanity of these palistinians. Seriously, make it a redevelopment project.
Imagine the ambassadors and their limousines searching for a good lunch.
OK what’s the bad news? There will not be another deal for hostages unless it includes all of them. Israel is done playing that game and nobody can force them to a negotiated solution if it means hostages remain in Gaza and Hamas can plan another Oct 7th. Would the Allies have come to a deal with Nazi Germany for some of the concentration camp prisoners or POW’s? Of course not. You press on until the threat is eliminated.
The new Cold War is on the horizon.
