MICHELLE BACHMANN GETS IT: TRUMP’S GAZA PLAN IGNORES JIHADIST REALITY [21:22] by Avi Abelow
October 26, 2025 Israel Unwired
As the former U.S. congresswoman rightly points out, the entire plan is doomed to fail if it lets jihadi-aligned regimes—especially Qatar—walk away without consequences.
Former U.S. Rep. Michelle Bachmann is the only one brave enough to say what too many so-called “friends of Israel” in President Donald Trump’s camp won’t admit: the Gaza plan spearheaded by Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff isn’t just flawed; it’s dangerously disconnected from reality. It risks halting Israel before it can finish the job and effectively rewards barbarism.
There’s no question that Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu are working on something historic—a transformative vision for the Middle East. A new economic corridor linking the U.S., Israel, Saudi Arabia to India sounds incredible: a global trade realignment that places Israel at the heart of the free world and counters China? That would be amazing.
But as Bachmann, who currently serves as dean of the Robertson School of Government at Regent University, rightly points out, the entire plan is doomed to fail if it lets jihadi-aligned regimes—especially Qatar, which bankrolled Hamas and other Islamist movements—walk away without consequences.
Hamas is only one front. Iran is the ideological engine of global jihad, but Qatar, Turkey, Egypt and Muslim Brotherhood–aligned regimes all fund, arm, inspire, and enable this war of annihilation. Egypt, in fact, has violated its peace treaty with Israel by placing tens of thousands of troops and tanks in Sinai.
On paper, Kushner’s plan looks visionary: normalization, trade routes, prosperity. But no economic deal can erase a 1,400-year-old ideology that glorifies violence, hates non-believers, and plays the long game. Economic incentives won’t extinguish jihad—they’ll give it time to regroup. And that leaves Israel and the free world even more vulnerable.
As Bachmann explains, the fatal flaw is the refusal to acknowledge the totality of the evil we face. Kushner and Witkoff treat this like a business negotiation. They believe that if you dangle enough economic carrots, sign enough agreements, and host enough summits, the jihad will just… go away. It won’t.
You cannot negotiate with a worldview that teaches children to hate Jews and glorify mass murder. You cannot normalize relations with regimes that supported and celebrated the Oct. 7, 2023, atrocities. And you cannot build a supply chain with the support of countries whose religious doctrine calls for your destruction.
The jihadists have waited 1,400 years for their opening. They’ll gladly wait out Trump’s next two years, using every moment to rebuild and rearm. Hamas, Hezbollah, Iran, Qatar, Turkey, and Egypt are already preparing for the next war. Trump’s plan gives them exactly what they need: time.
And when that time is up, Israel could face a war even more catastrophic than Oct. 7.
Bachmann understands what too many Western diplomats and Jewish leaders have forgotten: true peace only comes through victory. As she said, “The Arabs have to understand that they lost—and that only happens if they lose land.”
Exactly. That one sentence captures the entire strategic divide. Those who understand the Muslim Middle East know that deterrence comes only through defeat. History proves it. Every war ends when one side decisively wins. Israel has made the mistake of stopping short—always under international pressure—never finishing the job.
Bachmann accurately points out that Israel was just two weeks away from victory in Gaza when Kushner and Witkoff intervened, pressuring a halt. That let Hamas survive. Worse: it let them and their backers believe they’d won. The problem isn’t just Hamas. It’s Qatar, the central financier of jihadist warfare, and the entire ecosystem of regimes that must be held accountable.
Every ceasefire. Every peace process. Every “confidence-building measure.” They’ve all led to more bloodshed.
It’s time to let Israel win fully and finally. That means dismantling Hamas, destroying every tunnel, seizing every weapon, and asserting Israeli sovereignty over Gaza, Judea, and Samaria, only when the enemies of Israel see their investments in terror turn to ash will true deterrence return. Only then will the region understand that Oct. 7 was not a step forward for jihad, but a fatal strategic mistake.
Kushner and Witkoff may be talented businessmen, but this isn’t a real estate deal in Manhattan. It’s a religious war—a civilizational clash—between a culture that values life and one that sanctifies death.
When Saudi leaders grasp that Israel won’t be stopped until total victory is secured, they’ll sign onto the economic pact. It’s simply in their interest.
So yes, President Trump, thank them for their efforts, and move Kushner and Witkoff off the team.
Bring in people who genuinely understand the Middle East. People who understand the ideological and spiritual depth of this conflict. People who know that peace doesn’t come from “integration” with jihadists, but from defeating them.
If Trump wants a lasting legacy, not just a short-term deal, his plan must be grounded in truth—not illusion. Trade routes and normalization can come later.
First, Israel must be allowed to win. And Qatar must be made to lose.
Anything less isn’t peace. It’s surrender dressed up as strategy.
As Bachmann said—and as every Israeli family knows in their bones:
You cannot make peace with people who want you dead.
Let Israel finish the job!
BEN GVIR SAYS NO TO TRUMP WHEN IT COMES TO RELEASING THIS TERRORIST [4:43] by Micha Gefen
October 23, 2025 Israel Unwired
The cabinet meeting that took place after the publication of US President Donald Trump’s interview with TIME magazine included a heated confrontation between National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir and Strategic Affairs Minister Ron Dermer. The confrontation revolved around Ben-Gvir’s public response to Trump’s comments regarding the possible release of terrorist Marwan Barghouti.
Ben Gvir posted the following on X after the content of Trump’s interview with Time Magazine went public:
“I have great respect for President Trump, who is certainly the best American president towards Israel. And at the same time, it is important to remember: Israel is a sovereign, independent state – members of the Knesset vote according to their discretion. And Barghouti is a heinous Nazi murderer, who has the blood of many civilians, women, and children on his hands. He will not be released and will not lead Gaza.”
During the discussion, Ben-Gvir’s tweet was read to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who in turn turned to Ben-Gvir and said: “This is your tweet.” Minister Dermer sharply attacked Ben-Gvir: “I don’t understand what you’re talking about at all. Trump doesn’t even know who Barghouti is. They just threw a name at him.” Ben-Gvir did not remain unmoved and replied to Dermer: “So it’s important that they explain to him who he is, and it’s important that the Americans know that we have red lines. Dismantling Hamas and not releasing Barghouti”.
The storm began following an interview Trump gave to TIME magazine, in which he revealed that he was considering supporting the release of the master murderer Marwan Barghouti. “That was my question today”, Trump admitted, “I will make a decision soon”. In the interview, Trump also addressed the issue of sovereignty, which he rejected outright.
Marwan Barghouti founded and led the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigade, a designated terrorist group responsible for killing dozens of Israelis through suicide bombings and shootings during the Second Intifada (2001-2005). He also headed Tanzim, a Fatah armed faction that conducted attacks on Israeli civilians during the same period.
An overwhelming majority of Israelis oppose the release of Marwan Barghouti under any circumstances.
THIS IS HOW SAUDI ARABIA JUST SAVED ISRAEL [27:16] by David Mark
October 26, 2025 Israel Unwired
The prevailing assumption from the moment President Trump concluded his “peace” deal discussions in the Sinai resort of Sharm el-Sheikh was that the US, Egypt, Qatar, and Turkey would be guarantors of the burgeoning Gaza deal. Israelis who were overjoyed by the return of the hostages grew instantaneously wary of Qatari and Turkish involvement in the Gaza Strip.
No amount of reassurances has calmed the public over the last week. After all, Erdogan, the president of Turkey, has insisted that he will capture Jerusalem. Giving him a foothold in Gaza would be a disaster. Suddenly, out of nowhere, it was announced that Turkey was not going to be a part of the International Stabilization Force (ISF) in the Gaza Strip.
Reports indicate that it was not Israel alone that objected to Turkey’s involvement in Gaza, but rather Saudi Arabia and the UAE. Both countries threatened to pull out of the “peace” deal Trump has been promoting if Turkey would be part of the ISF.
Turkey and Qatar are hated in Saudi Arabia and the UAE due to their leaders’ allegiance to the Muslim Brotherhood. Giving them a piece of Gaza would be disastrous, pushing the region to more war, not less. With Netanyahu’s government locked in Trump’s bear hug, others like the Saudis and Emirates have had no choice but to use their influence inside the administration to ensure that Turkey is kept back from Gaza.
So will this keep Turkey out? Many reports indicate that Turkey is already active inside the Hamas-controlled part of the enclave by way of some of their Hamas-linked NGOs. This would be standard operating procedure for Turkey, as they have done the same thing in northern Syria. Given their influence, NATO membership, and Trump’s positive views of Erdogan, Turkey is seen as a major lynchpin for any force meant to control Gaza.
Despite Netanyahu’s insistence that Israel is not a vassal state, Turkey’s involvement in any capacity, renders the Prime Minister’s claim absurd.

FOREIGN TROOPS ALREADY ON ISRAELI SOIL AS JD VANCE VISITS, CLAIMING PEACE IS HERE [33:15] by David Mark
October 21, 2025 Israel Unwired
US Vice President JD Vance’s day trip to Israel started with a visit to the civilian-military cooperation center in Kiryat Gat. Trump is the ultimate marketing genius, and part of the push towards fulfilling his peace plan is getting Israel to swallow a sugar-coated poison pill, whether the Jewish State wants to or not. Internationalizing the end to the Israel-Hamas conflict is not in Israel’s interests, but it is certainly in America’s. JD Vance is here to ensure it happens.
“We are one week into President Trump’s historic peace plan in the Middle East, and things are going, frankly, better than I expected. Here at the civilian-military cooperation center, which we are announcing the opening of, you have Israelis and Americans working hand-in-hand to try to begin the plan to rebuild Gaza, to implement a long-term peace, and to actually ensure that you have security forces on the ground in Gaza, not composed of Americans, who can keep the peace over the long term,” Vance said while Witkoff, Kushner, and US CENTCOM Commander Adm. Brad Cooper stood near by.
Foreign Troops Already Here
Besides US and Israeli soldiers, British, Canadian, German, Danish, and Jordanian soldiers are already present at the coordination center, with more expected to join. The buildup of the international force and the insistence of Turkey that it enter the Gaza Strip as well do not bode well for Israel’s ability to maneuver inside Gaza.
The Trump administration insists that the force is there to take over Gaza, but its presence in sovereign Israel begs another question: what are its real aims? After all, many of the countries listed are not friendly to Israel. With Turkey already getting itself into Gaza by way of its Hamas-linked “humanitarian” organizations, it is not far-fetched that it will be one of the leaders of the International Stabilization Force (ISF).
Prime Minister Netanyahu insists that Israel can continue fighting Hamas if needed, but what is apparent is that the Trump administration sees its “peace” plan as its ultimate objective now even at the expense of Israel’s security.
Hamas Rising Again
Reports have indicated that Hamas has begun reorganizing in Gaza and, at the same time, building its forces up throughout Judea and Samaria. The US pressure on Israel to hold off from taking out Hamas and ultimately the “palestinian” national movement is not only putting IDF soldiers at risk as they remain stationary and in defensive positions, but millions of Israeli citizens, both in the center of the country and across the communities of Judea and Samaria.
While supporters of Bibi insist he has pulled off the unthinkable by aligning with Trump, Israel’s loss of sovereignty when it comes to its own self-defense should be seen as a complete failure and an alarming development. Netanyahu may think he can wiggle out of the “peace” plan, but with Rubio coming right after Vance departs, it is clear the Trump administration wants this deal done.
Unfortunately, Israelis have seen this all before. In the 1990s, at the height of the Oslo Accords fever pushed by an obsessed Bill Clinton, Israel’s leaders Yitzhak Rabin and Shimon Peres kept the plan moving forward despite the heavy loss of life wrought by increased terror attacks. The same energy is felt now, too, across Israel.
With more and more foreign troops expected to arrive, all while Iran rebuilds Hezbollah to Israel’s north, Israel is once again surrounded - this time in a far more precarious position than before. Will Israel make it through? Yes, but the only question is at what cost?
WITH JD VANCE IN ISRAEL, THE KNESSET VOTES FOR SOVEREIGNTY OVER JUDEA AND SAMARIA by Micha Gefen
October 22, 2025 Israel Unwired
Despite Prime Minister Netanyahu’s efforts to prevent the vote to apply sovereignty over Judea and Samaria, the vote was held anyway and passed in its first reading.
The Knesset plenum passed a preliminary reading of a bill to apply sovereignty over Judea and Samaria, proposed by MK Avi Maoz, with 25 MKs voting in favor and 24 against. The bill now advances to the Foreign Affairs and Security Committee for further discussion.
A clear majority supported sovereignty, with votes from religious Zionist parties, Otzma Yehudit, Noam, and Yisrael Beiteinu. In Torah Judaism, four MKs voted in favor, while three abstained. Likud largely abstained, except for MK Yuli Edelstein, who supported the bill. Blue and White also abstained, while Yesh Atid, Labor, and Arab parties opposed it.
MK Avi Maoz, the bill’s sponsor, stated: “The Holy One, blessed be He, granted the Land of Israel to the people of Israel. Settlement in the Land of Israel represents redemption and national revival, making it flourish after two thousand years of exile. Applying sovereignty to Judea and Samaria corrects a long-overdue injustice. Since the government has delayed, it is our duty as Knesset members to act.”
With Arab countries and even members of the Abraham Accords like the UAE threatening diplomatic consequences if Israel applies sovereignty over its historical and biblical heartland of Judea and Samaria, the bill’s passage shakes the nascent “peace” plan Trump is trying to hold together.
None Dare Call It Deliberate BY MORDECHAI SONES
The bipartisan ‘no-win’ playbook defining Israel’s endless war
OCTOBER 26, 2025
Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu’s career is defined by a central paradox. He is the ultimate “Mr. Security,” a leader of hardline rhetoric and vows of “total victory.” Yet, his political history is a trail of stunning concessions, from the Hebron Accords to the current, grinding war in Gaza.

The Architects of Equilibrium
A Bipartisan Doctrine
October 7 and the ‘Total Victory’ Mirage
A Pattern of Abandoned Red Lines
Championing the ‘Managed’ Solution
The Mideast Union Trap
This contradiction is often explained as pragmatism. But another, less-examined framework suggests these are not compromises, but the consistent execution of a “no-win” doctrine—a policy of managed conflict designed not to defeat enemies, but to maintain a permanent “equilibrium.”
This is the playbook of an elite, bipartisan U.S. foreign policy establishment, crystallized in the organization that has shaped it for a century: the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR).
The Architects of Equilibrium
Founded in 1919 by American intellectuals and diplomats disillusioned by the U.S. rejection of the League of Nations, the CFR’s quiet, long-term mission was to guide America’s role in the world. Its influence became stated doctrine after World War II. As the Cold War began, CFR-affiliated figures like John Foster Dulles and Arthur Schlesinger Jr. architected the West’s grand strategy.
This strategy, known as “containment,” was not about defeating communism. It was about arranging an “equilibrium of forces.” The goal was stalemate, not sovereignty. The “obsolete prerogatives” of allied nations—such as their right to pursue unconditional victory—were often seen as secondary to the stability of the global system.
In practice, this meant agreeing to partitions in places like Korea and Vietnam. The “stalemates” in those countries were not accidents; they were the goal. They created unending division and simmering, low-level conflict, but they prevented a decisive outcome that could upset the global balance.
A Bipartisan Doctrine
This doctrine was always bipartisan, and its persistence is the key. One need only look at the Republican “America First” administration of Donald Trump (2025-present). While President Trump himself is not a member, his foreign policy and national security apparatus includes key figures with CFR affiliations: Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.
Their policy for Gaza, formalized in the Trump-brokered ceasefire deal, is the very picture of this historic, multilateral globalism. An October 24, 2025, Washington Post report details the intense U.S. enforcement of this “no-win” pact. A “flurry of visits” from U.S. officials—including VP JD Vance, Jared Kushner, and Secretary of State Marco Rubio—has been dubbed “Bibi-sitting” by Israeli media, openly mocking Netanyahu’s loss of “freedom of action.”
Rubio, in Jerusalem, laid the doctrine bare, warning that this ceasefire is the “only plan” and there is “no plan B.” His words confirm the U.S. commitment is not to Israel’s victory, but to a “demilitarized Gaza” managed by “over two dozen countries, including regional Arab countries.”
COUNTRIES SENDING FORCES TO US BASE IN KIRYAT GAT: UNITED STATES, CANADA, AUSTRALIA, UK, GERMANY, FRANCE, SPAIN, JORDAN, DENMARK, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES
The true U.S. priority was exposed when Netanyahu’s coalition partners pushed a symbolic annexation vote for Judea and Samaria. The U.S. reaction was not just disagreement; it was a threat. Vance called it a “very stupid political stunt,” and Trump himself stated that if Israel proceeded, it “would lose all of its support from the United States” because he “gave his word to the Arab countries.”
This is the globalist doctrine in its rawest form: Israel’s “obsolete prerogative”—its sovereignty over its biblical heartland—is being explicitly sacrificed for a larger regional “equilibrium” (the “word to the Arab countries”). The plan’s next phase, as detailed by Kushner, involves starting reconstruction only in the 50% of Gaza Israel controls, to “create a dynamic.” This is not a plan for victory; it is the literal partition of Korea and the “neutralism” of Vietnam reborn in the Middle East.
October 7 and the ‘Total Victory’ Mirage
This 60-year-old doctrine finds its echo in the sands of Gaza. Following the horrific Hamas-led attack on October 7, 2023, Netanyahu promised “total victory” and the “eradication of Hamas.”
Two years later, as of October 2025, that victory is a mirage. While the IDF has achieved tactical dominance over 75 percent of the Gaza Strip, Hamas has not been eradicated. It has adapted, surviving amid the chaos of a displaced population.
Confronted with this reality, Prime Minister Netanyahu on October 26 furiously slammed critics, insisting that “We are in control of our security” and “we will continue to control our destiny.” This is not the confident statement of a leader, but the desperate deflection of a man whose long-held, hidden script is being exposed.
As a truth begins to dawn on the nation—that the “no-win” war is a feature, not a bug—the rhetoric must become more shrill. These words appear to be a performance, completely detached from the policy his government is actively negotiating. While he speaks of victory, his government accepts U.S.-pressured ceasefires that allow Hamas to regroup and engages with the very “multilateral reconstruction” plans that guarantee his stated war aims will fail.
A Pattern of Abandoned Red Lines
This contradiction is Netanyahu’s signature. To understand his actions in Gaza, one must look back to the Wye River Summit in 1998. Netanyahu arrived with firm “red lines,” including no release of prisoners with “blood on their hands” and, most emotionally, a vow that he would not leave without securing the freedom of Jonathan Pollard.
After nine days of intense U.S. pressure, he signed the memorandum. He ceded 13 percent of Judea and Samaria and released Palestinian prisoners, but Jonathan Pollard remained in an American prison for another 17 years.
This was not simply pragmatism; it was a clear demonstration of the doctrine. National “red lines” and “obsolete prerogatives”—like freeing a national hero or refusing to cede land—were sacrificed for the “equilibrium” of the peace process, managed by U.S. negotiators steeped in the CFR framework. The system, not the leader, dictated the outcome.
Championing the ‘Managed’ Solution
This performance of caving to the system was not an anomaly; it was a prelude to him publicly championing it. Any claim that Netanyahu is a nationalist resisting globalist pressure crumbles against his own words, delivered at, of all places, a 2010 Council on Foreign Relations event.
Speaking directly to the architects of the “managed conflict” doctrine, Netanyahu articulated the very “solution” he now pretends to oppose. “The substance of my… peace is a solution of two states for two peoples,” he told the CFR audience, “in which a de-militarized Palestinian state recognizes the Jewish state of Israel.” This is the doctrine in its purest form: “de-militarized” is the illusion of security, the definition of a “managed” outcome that undermines Israel’s safety while denying its sovereignty.

NETANYAHU ADVOCATES “TWO-STATE SOLUTION” IN SPEECH TO COUNCIL ON FOREIGN RELATIONS
When a CFR member pressed him on how he would get domestic political support to implement this vision, specifically regarding the removal of Jewish communities, Netanyahu confirmed his strategy. He spoke of defining a “clear vision” so people would see the “benefits,” and, most revealingly, of using “the dimension of time as a crucial element for implementation.”
This was not the answer of a leader beholden to his people; it was the chillingly laconic answer of a manager. He was signaling to the globalists that he understood their long-term project and was prepared to see it through, waiting for the right moment—or the right crisis—to finally execute the plan.
The Mideast Union Trap
For decades, the public has been handed individual policy “pieces,” each appearing as an innocent, safe, and familiar-looking step: a “peace process,” a “humanitarian pause,” a “two-state solution,” a “ceasefire,” an “international stabilization force.”
But this is not a pathway to peace. It is the construction of a trap, and the “managed” chaos in Gaza is not the endgame; it is the brutal initiation fee.
CFR 10/12 Virtual Public Forum: Update on the Israel-Hamas War Council on Foreign Relations [59:59]
The true, unspoken goal of this entire globalist machination is not merely a Palestinian state. That is simply the price of admission. The real prize is the creation of a “Mideast Union,” a new regional bloc modeled after the European Union, managed by the same globalist architects and financially dominated by Saudi Arabia.
In this new order, Israel is being forced to play a specific, tragic role: the muscle. Israel is shedding blood, suffering catastrophic losses, and absorbing the world’s condemnation, all to dismantle regional threats that stand in the way of Saudi and American regional interests. Israel is fighting for Saudi Arabia’s strategic future.
The Abraham Accords, sold as an historic peace, are now revealed as the diplomatic vehicle for this forced integration. The “revitalized” Palestinian Authority, planted not just in Gaza but in the heart of Judea and Samaria, is the non-negotiable sacrifice required for Israel to be “normalized” into this new bloc.
This is the final, deliberate betrayal. The “total victory” that was promised is being traded for a “total integration,” where Israel’s sovereignty is dissolved. It ceases to be a nation that “makes its own decisions” and becomes a province in a new, Saudi-led order, having paid for its own chains with the blood of its own soldiers.
