Mohammed Odeh: Israeli strike in Gaza kills new head of Hamas's military wing

Friends + Interlocutors,

A straw in the wind. Tel Aviv murders another Hamas leader and his family. [See BBC link here.] This is now regarded as routine and acceptable. Israel does it, so it must be ok.

There was supposed to be a ceasefire when this happened, but it all depends how you look at it. Please note Israel’s justification:

On Wednesday, Hamas confirmed that Odeh had been killed, along with his wife and two of his children….The Palestinian territory's Hamas-run health ministry has reported the killing of more than 900 people in Israeli strikes during the ceasefire….Israel's government maintains it has the licence to target Hamas members and has in turn accused Hamas of breaching the ceasefire agreement by failing to disarm.

You read that right. I have been making the point for the past several years that Israel is not just a foreign policy issue but clearly a mental health issue as well. Regrettably, officials in Washington have become infected. They are mimicking their Zionist mentors. 

The perfidious February 28, 2026 sneak attack on Iran by the U.S., in coordination with Israel and at its request, while peace talks were underway, and in which most of the top Iranian leadership was wiped out, was a clear-cut case of cold-blooded murder. 

So that is where we are. The North American republic of 1789, the land of the free and home of the brave, has been hijacked and is being programmed by a foreign entity.
